Javascript – Where is dojo.charting library on AOL site

dojojavascript

I am testing dojo charting library. I prefer to use the library from AOL web page instead of installing dojo into my computer. I have the following codes:

<script
  type="text/javascript"
  src="http://o.aolcdn.com/dojo/1.2/dojo/dojo.xd.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
    dojo.require("dojox.gfx");
    dojo.require("dojox.gfx.move");
    dojo.require("dojo.charting.*");
...

I got an error saying "uncaught exception: Could not load cross-domain resources: dojo.charting.". I guess that my url to dojo library may not have dojo.charting.. Does any one know what is the correct URL? Is there any way to browse AOL site to find out what libraries available?

First of all like Jarret said: dojox.charting.

Second of all: the "wildcard loading" is obsolete since Dojo 0.4. You cannot use dojo.require("some.package.*") anymore. You have to be explicit about what you need.

The best you can do is to hit the charting docs and tests to see how to do it right for your particular needs — you didn't give out any hints of what you are actually trying to do.

Javascript – Sanitize/Rewrite HTML on the Client Side

Update 2016: There is now a Google Closure package based on the Caja sanitizer.

It has a cleaner API, was rewritten to take into account APIs available on modern browsers, and interacts better with Closure Compiler.

Shameless plug: see caja/plugin/html-sanitizer.js for a client side html sanitizer that has been thoroughly reviewed.

It is white-listed, not black-listed, but the whitelists are configurable as per CajaWhitelists

If you want to remove all tags, then do the following:

var tagBody = '(?:[^"\'>]|"[^"]*"|\'[^\']*\')*';

var tagOrComment = new RegExp(
    '<(?:'
    // Comment body.
    + '!--(?:(?:-*[^->])*--+|-?)'
    // Special "raw text" elements whose content should be elided.
    + '|script\\b' + tagBody + '>[\\s\\S]*?</script\\s*'
    + '|style\\b' + tagBody + '>[\\s\\S]*?</style\\s*'
    // Regular name
    + '|/?[a-z]'
    + tagBody
    + ')>',
    'gi');
function removeTags(html) {
  var oldHtml;
  do {
    oldHtml = html;
    html = html.replace(tagOrComment, '');
  } while (html !== oldHtml);
  return html.replace(/</g, '&lt;');
}

People will tell you that you can create an element, and assign innerHTML and then get the innerText or textContent, and then escape entities in that. Do not do that. It is vulnerable to XSS injection since <img src=bogus onerror=alert(1337)> will run the onerror handler even if the node is never attached to the DOM.

Loading Dojo Library from AOL and Widget Codes from Local

This may help: http://dojotoolkit.org/forum/dojo-core-dojo-0-9/dojo-core-support/xdomain-usage-dojo-loading-not-detecting-local-modules

The summary is: you need a djConfig item registering the modulePaths you want to be local, and specify a baseUrl to "trick" Dojo into thinking it knows where those paths are relative, across hosts.

djConfig = { modulePaths: { "mine":"/js/mine" };

then you can dojo.require("mine.Thing") from /js/mine/Thing.js
