… Javascript event control of it’s “bubbling” (up through an element hierarchy), in other words, depending where you place this, stopping it’s “bubbling up” at that element concerned …
The stopPropagation() method of the Event interface prevents further propagation of the current event in the capturing and bubbling phases. It does not, however, prevent any default behaviors from occurring; for instance, clicks on links are still processed. If you want to stop those behaviors, see the preventDefault() method. It also does not prevent propagation to other event-handlers of the current element. If you want to stop those, see stopImmediatePropagation().
We find, around here, we don’t know we’ve created a need for event.stopPropagation() usage until we’ve stumbled onto it, most of the time, so trying to get in ahead of it with today’s proof of conceptto event.stopPropagation() or not to event.stopPropagation() web application feels a bit novel to us, in a good way.
This means by which to toggle that mode of use was more straightforward than “data control” with our musical YouTube API video functionality allowing a user to choose and slot in their own video ideas via either …
YouTube video ID … 11 characters long … or …
search string to try to select a video, via a programmatically populated dropdown, with an 11 character long YouTube video ID
… asking us to do a fair bit of tweaking to our inhouse interfacing …
The recent Making Of Earth Scanner Legs Tutorial set us to thinking about how to offer a toggling arrangement between our inhouse YouTube Embedded Iframe API playing of …

… and it got us wondering how to “dull out” a video. We chose the CSS …

If you want a “complete dull out” try filter: invert(50%); … but we wanted to see controls down the bottom, still useful for audio only playing.

We’ve created a new “optional approach” browsing button in our changedvoiceover.php PHP Voiceover web application where the browsing conditions are “stringent”, as we imtimated we might be interested in with yesterday’s blog posting …

Two recent aspects to work here have meant that the Voiceover work of Ffmpeg Shelling Peas Tutorial can be improved upon …
migrating the web server from CentOS to AlmaLinux gave us the opportunity to have ffmpeg installed on the (public) web server … and …
when we presented Making of iPhone Videos Play Around the Traps Tutorial we created a Javascript clientside approach to synchronizing two separate video and audio tracks, a topic that has interested us since “ever knows when”
… the implications of the first idea above meaning, depending on user supplied video and audio compatible files (small enough), we’ll be able to show an ffmpeg created video combining the two, all the work taking place on our AlmaLinux’s /tmp/ folder for a five minute period, as time enough to gather the video and audio data and try the ffmpeg command shown to you ahead of doing it.
Well, our wish to “shell peas” setting up more ffmpeg media options based on the excellent FFmpeg cheat sheet, thanks, today, had its ups and downs for speed of progress, but, yes, to have a solid “framework” to work within, that you are happy with, barring those tweaks you inevitably discover in projects as they gain complexity, is the best first endeavour you might need to do, to feel more relaxed about the parts of the project requiring that third party expertise, which it is your job to test that you have successfully merged into the project.

Ffmpeg and Pandoc and ImageMagick and Pdfimages Dropdown Onhover Marquee Tutorial
The non-mobile platforms have that useful wooooorrrrllllddd, the “onhover wooooorrrrllllddd” (to be precise) that can be a great partner for Javascript Ajax methodologies. This onhover (actually the “onmouseover”) event is also useful whereby as a user hovers over an HTML element, and that element’s title attribute has a value, then the user can see that value displayed.

… to work out a file path when supplied a file base name and a file size and you call as above with starting folders. That works well (for deriverability (if that is a word!)) in the “cmd” window but not when called under the auspices of PHP exec or shell_exec. It could be that you lose a lot of a Windows user environment when asking PHP to do some operating system work.

We tend to stand up and take notice when a “middleperson tool”, in the web application “scheme of things”, needs a change to improve a situation. Yesterday’s Open File Picker Experimental Status Tutorial “middleperson tool”, our inhouse local file browsing client_browsing.htm helper tool, is the case in point, for us, today.
With such a “tool” we tend to want it …
open and flexible … in the short term … but as it matures in usability you might start thinking to …
allow it, depending on the call, be “buttoned down” and “stringent”
… so that it only helps when the call parameters suggest it should. This is a sign of maturity with a “tool”, and if you want to string inhouse functionality together, you will rely on these well designed and modular “tools” you develop as you proceed. Please feed functionality into these “tools” rather than spreading it to “one off” web applications you are apt to forget exist over time, we’re recommending.
We’ve thought of a requirement, affecting local file browsing input functionality, that wil require …
exactly two (local files) selected
of two mimetype specifications ( ie. a mimetype where the second part is * … eg. image/* ) that must match
… else we’d like our local file browsing client_browsing.htm helper tool bail out, supplying no data information back to any parent caller web application.
This is definitely a piece of functionality we can make our “middleperson tool” be capable of taking on, so, like we say above, that “middleperson tool” should be modified to take on this new capablity, and have any calling web application start using a new GET arguments ( ie. ? and & URL ) arrangement when they need this new “stringency”.
And so we’re adding two new GET argument logics into “it’s mix” …
numhastobe=[number of files to be selected] … optional … and/or …
typehastobe=[list of mimetype specifications to satisfy] … optional
… where …

Some “middleperson tools” are never meant to be standalone entities, but the job of testing changes is even easier when they are, because you can debug and step through your changes just by calling them up at the web browser address bar, to test new functionality, and that you haven’t stuffed any existant old functionality (which, after all, is even more important when the tests concern a “middleperson tool”).

Javascript, in “clientside mode”, has many more asynchronous ideas than it used to, say, a decade ago, where it was mainly setTimeout and setInterval timer functions we turned to, in this regard. It used to be that any idea of “waiting for JS” was not on, but that does not have to be the case with the modern web browsers using “modern Javascript”. Today, for example, we’ve written a “proof of concept” web application making use of …
A microtask is a short function which is executed after the function or program which created it exits and only if the JavaScript execution stack is empty, but before returning control to the event loop being used by the user agent to drive the script’s execution environment.

we can use navigation via an HTML form method=POST … allowing for large amounts of user written Javascript code they want to dynamically execute … and …
as we mentioned with the recent PHP Tokeniser Primer Tutorial talking about “code as content, teamed with navigation using this code data” …
we leave using Javascript window.btoa …
<?php echo ”
function doit(tdiho) {
document.getElementById('jcode').value=window.btoa(tdiho.innerText);
document.getElementById('mysub').click();

The Apple iOS Books app has had a makeover since we last looked. We used to associate it with being a PDF Reader, and small time, editor. But now, it has become more about reading and listening within the realms of …
Books
Audiobooks
… where it is like shopping, to pick your contents, and some PDF functionality is there too, but not looking like the previous Books iOS app incarnations.
And so, we gave it a go, and must say, we were reading within ten minutes. Even though what we chose to read was free, you will still need an Apple account to read this way.
For us, these days, once you are reading, it is the light level that is critical, and what you might be comparing against regarding this way versus the Kindle way? Well, this depends a bit on your hardware we’re thinking, but on our iPad, it was very good, as you can see viewing today’s animated GIF tutorial presentation.
