2 questions about a better way of solving the problem:
1) is there is a way to make HTML page title looking different for different locales of the client-side code except for javascript?
I.e. write HTML page title which is shown in the browser's tab in corresponding language.
I know I can use javascript for this, but may be there is another way?
2)I set my HTML page header with javascript (it is a different case). But there is a delay before the script will run. Is there is a way to set HTML page header to empty line before javascript evaluates?
If I remove tag I get the page URL.
If I use empty tag - same thing.
I have to use   content inside which looks a bit ugly.
Some other options?
I don't see any other means but JavaScript on the client side for this, sorry.
For the delay: try using an inline javascript to change the page title right on top of the page before any other scripts are loaded or executed, but after the page title has been set. This should keep the delay to an absolute minimum.
To the first:
Except Javascript, the only Way i know would be PHP, but using Javascript is a lot better and
easier.
To the second:

I am trying to copy a link from this site (stack overflow), but I like the link to include a hash so when someone clicks on the link they go directly to the answer I would like them to see. How can I find the hashes in a page?
Example:
http://www.blahblah.com/index.php#label
How can I know there is a #label, and how to find it?
The value of the hash is simply the ID attribute of any element in the page.
You can see them in the source or the DOM inspector.
Are you looking for something like this?
var hash = window.location.hash;
There might not be a simple answer for your here. In a pure HTML context (i.e. excluding javascript functionality). The has would reference an anchor on the page like this:
<a name="label"></a>
So you could just look for named anchors.
Now, if you are talking about javascript functionality it gets much more complex. Via javascript you can use a hash tag like that and make it do any number of things (like show a hidden element with id="label", download some content asynchronously based on that hash, etc. So there might not be an easy way to determine allowable values.
I'm using PJAX with cakePHP. Everything works super fine, but since I'm not reloading the layout, I don't get title update. I was told I had to put a tag in the body, and that it would get removed. It seems to work but, is it valid to have an HTML page without a tag ?
EDIT : well actually the tag isn't removed, so HTML markup is invalid! What is the best practice for this? It would need to be the same for metas.
The official demo uses this in Ruby but I don't read it :
https://github.com/defunkt/jquery-pjax/blob/heroku/app/pjax.rb
https://github.com/defunkt/jquery-pjax/blob/heroku/app/views/layout.erb
Since #57 pjax also looks for a data attribute data-title in the fragment that is loaded and should update the main title.
This is much cleaner and would not break html with a title in the body.
I have a number of templates that create headings based on a formula. I am wondering if there is anyway to create an "edit" link that will take you directly to that section? The way that it currently works, the edit link takes you to editing the template itself. Could I possibly create a customized link that would keep you on the page and take you to right part?
Here is some sample code to help clear things up...
Template:Head:
==={{{1}}}===
This is a heading titled "{{{1}}}"
Test Page:
=Section 1=
{{head|1.1}}
{{head|1.2}}
{{head|1.3}}
=Section 2=
{{head|2.1}}
{{head|2.2}}
{{head|2.3}}
At the moment, if I want to edit the information for template "2.3", I have to edit all of section 2. (Note that for this example, that isn't a big deal. For the actual templates I am working with on my site, the templates have dozens of parameters and there are sometimes 10 or more in a section.)
Bottom line, is there way to create a custom edit link inside of the {{head}} template that would take you directly to editing the templates call on the page "Test Page"? Hope that makes sense.
Edit: Is there perhaps a way to make use of "anchor" tags? Can anchors be passed in to the URL?
To restate your problem, when you transclude a section heading the header isn't treated as being part of the destination page, so the edit link takes you back to the source. So you need a separate container for the template in order to edit it individually, and a complete section is the smallest editable container.
The only way I can think of doing this is using subpages (or virtual subpages if you don't have that ennabled in this namespace, doesn't change anything). So instead of placing {{head|1.1}} on MyPage, put it on MyPage/Subpage1 and then transclude that into MyPage in the usual way ({{:MyPage/Subpage1}}).
{{head}} can then include a custom edit link to the template input by using HTML heading tags (<h2> is equal to ==, etc.) to suppress the standard edit link and then use one of these templates (probably {{ed right}}) to create a custom edit link pointing to MyPage/Subpage1.
The way to create anchors in Mediawiki, by the way, is to use a <span id="name"/> tag, but that doesn't create a container that can be edited (or at least, not that I've been able to work out through URL tinkering).
I'm pretty sure there's no way to do that. As far as MediaWiki's section editing feature is concerned, the only thing that begins a new section is a line of the form:
=== Some text here ===
with the number of = signs determining the level of the heading. There's no way to get MediaWiki to let you edit any segment of the document that doesn't begin and end with such a line (or the beginning or end of the page).
Well, OK, I'm sure you technically could do it with an extension, in the sense that you can do anything with a MediaWiki extension. All you'd need to do is provide some way (e.g. a special parameter in an edit URL) for to user to indicate "I want to edit this template", then extract the template from the wikitext, present it to the user for editing, and write the result back into the page text over the original.
The tricky part will be extracting the template from the page source. (Finding and replacing templates on a page is a fairly common task for MediaWiki bot writers, so you might want to look for ideas there.) Whatever method you end up using for that, there will probably be edge cases where you need to give up and tell the user "Sorry, but I can't figure out how that template is transcluded here."
I have an HTML page which needs to display some HTML generated by the user on the Administration area (like a blog, for instance). The problem is that the user sometimes needs to copy-paste tables and other "garbage" content from Word/Excel to the WYSIWYG editor (that has the proper "paste from Word" function). This causes the resulting HTML code to be very dirty.
It wouldn't be a problem unless some of these pages are shown totally wrong: other divs AFTER user's HTML code are not in their supposed position, floats are not respected... etc...
I tried putting a div:
<div style="clear: both;"></div>
without success. I even tried with iFrames, but iFrames accept only external webpages (if applicable...).
The question is: is there any tag or method to put a part of an HTML code inside a webpage discarding all formatting AFTER this code?
Thank you.
To my knowledge, you simply want to end all divs. HTML is a very simple code, with very simple options. Your example doesn't work because HTML isn't that advances. You can either start a function <...> or end a function .
Ideally what you want is a piece of code that puts their work in a separate frame entirely, so as soon as the page passes their code, it goes back to the correct formatting.
Or, you could be really sloppy and put one hundred 's in, just in case.
Essentially I have lots of small urls with parameters. a requirement is for users to be able to generate reports by coding their own html page with their own layout. The reports won't be dynamic so I don't want to use Ajax. Are iframes the only way?
AJAX doesn't require that the report be dynamic. You can go get the HTML and then set the innerHTML of a tag with the result. If there were a hypothetical tag like
<remotediv src="..."></remotediv>
It would pretty much do the same thing as this.
I believe that javascript in the HTML set to innerHTML won't run -- which might be the desired effect.
