Fatal error in relation to Javascript - El Forum - 08-18-2010
[eluser]russ_kern[/eluser]
OK... I have it dropping content into the DIV tag... but what it is dropping is is the ENTIRE page that I'm currently viewing - not the "sell_sheet_builder/contenta/?" page which amounts to a few drop downs or text area or whatever is defined based on their selection...
Any idea why?
I suspect it has to do with my links in the html of the view file
Code:
<a href="[removed]loadContenta(1);" class="build">PCMO Product</a>
<a href="[removed]loadContenta(2);" class="build">HDEO Product</a>
<a href="[removed]loadContenta(3);" class="build">Industrial Product</a>
<a href="[removed]loadContenta(4);" class="build">Aviation Product</a>
<a href="[removed]loadContenta(5);" class="build">Custom Content</a>
<a href="[removed]loadContenta(6);" class="build">Library Content</a>
<a href="[removed]loadContenta(7);" class="build">Promotions</a>
<a href="[removed]loadContenta(8);" class="build">Kendall Locator</a>
<div id="regiona" style="margin-top:24px;clear:both;display:block; ">

Classic error - you need to return false from the js function to prevent your link being followed

OK... First... I'm not intimately familiar with Javascript... although I'm learning it...
Where is it best to return false from?
I have tried a few different things... either they don't affect the page loading or nothing happens at all..
2 things I've tried (among others):
first was to change my links to an "onclick" event with return false tagged on the end...
Second was..
Code:
<a href="[removed]loadContenta(1); return false;" class="build">PCMO Product</a>the first had no effect on the previous behaviour, the second - nothing happened at all.
Your help is really appreciated... I know this isn't a Javascript forum.

You need to use the onclick event handler not the href of your link.
href="#" onclick="myfunction();return false;"

I had tried that... a regular <href="#"> with:
onclick="loadContenta(1); return false;"
would that be correct?
This still returns the entire current page in my div tag for me...
