[Javascript] refresh on resize window/reload .js file only

[BEKIM BACAJ]

Please cut and paste the folowing:

<SCRIPT ID="Loader" SRC="HM_Loader.js"></SCRIPT>

<SCRIPT>
                       document.body.onresize = loaderRefresh

function loaderRefresh(){
                      Loader.src = "HM_Loader.js"
                      }
</SCRIPT>

Tip! Avoid using brankets when callin the function from within the script tag OK
Regards

PS. Oh my GOD, dont forget to add some conditions tho the script for it will blow the server in case that the window is resized by mouse draging.   
      Imagine houndred clients draging to resize the window. It calls the function for every pixel of move. For 200px it will call the loader 200 times.

The script does not create the form information. That is all ASP.  

I tried this and I get "Error:Not implemented" referring to [document.body.onresize=loaderRefresh()]. If I click through the error, then I get the page OK with the menus placed correctly. But then nothing happens when I resize the window. That is the window resizes but the menus maintain their original position.


Tell me please what I might be doing wrong.

Here is the code:

<SCRIPT ID="Loader" LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.2" SRC="HM_Loader.js" TYPE='text/javascript'></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
document.body.onresize = loaderRefresh()

function loaderRefresh(){
   Loader.src = "HM_Loader.js"
}

//-->
</SCRIPT>

If I do it this way I get the error. If I place a onResize="loaderRefresh()" in the body tag instead, the script does not reload when the window is resized. However, onResize="location.reload()" works fine, but it reloads all the data in the forms as well, which I don't want. I have to think that the function is not set up right.

Thanks.

I would like to create a function that will cause the window to refresh whenever the window is resized. Anyone know how to do this or can point me to a site that has this explained?  Also, is there a way to reload a javascript source file without reloading the rest of the data that might be loaded on the page from the server or that has been input into form elements? Thanks.

******************************************************
Well, your first question has been answered.
As about the second one, try this:
1. Give you're script an ID.
<script id="refreshing" src="refreshable.js">
</script>
2. Choose you're event for reloading the script src,- for example I will use the onClick :
someElementID.onclick=scriptRefreshfunction
                  *[someElementID] is the ID of the element that you like to fire the event.
            
3. Write the function:
function scriptRefreshfunction(){  refreshing.src="the_address_of_the_script\\refreshable.js"    }
But in case that this script (efreshable.js) writes the actual Forms of the page. You're form-inputs will be lost I guess, but who knows, -sometimes the forms do not loose focus even if they are refreshened, -there are casses that even the input data remains, but that's a bug!
Cheers!
