Hi All, I have a little deal where I need to run some javascript code when someone clicks on a link. The link shouldn't go anywhere.. let me explain.
The link is on a person's name, and when they click on their name, I want to pop up a little window that gives them all of the information about themselves. I have the javascript already written, and the PHP code written to get the data from the database... it's the link part that is tripping me up now.
I have this: <a href='' OnClick=MyInfo()>[person's name]</a>
Try '<a href='#' OnClick=MyInfo()>[person's name]</a>' instead, IE will not go into the directory listing, it just refers to a blank internal link, contrarly from '' which is a link to the current working directory :) Ciao! Ju.
and it's working -- the window pops up and everything looks great... but the page that the link is on does different things in different browsers: IE5.x/Netscape 4.x/Mozilla 0.9: Tries to access the directory that the URL is in, subsequently getting a "directory browsing is denied" error. Konqueror: Works fine, but the link isn't underlined like a link is supposed to be.
What can I do? Has anyone tried to do something like this before?
Thanks for putting up with the off topic thread :-/
