"Easter Egg" in link - activated by CTRL + click - javascript

I'm working on a project for a client, and we want to make a easter egg, when you click some of the letters in the logo.
There are three letters, and you have to click in the right order, before it activates the easter egg. However, because it's in a link, I wondered if I could use CTRL+Click...? I've searched the web, but couldn't get any answers...

Sure, you can do that
<html>
<head>
<title>Test Page</title>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$('#link').click( function( event )
{
if ( event.ctrlKey )
{
event.preventDefault();
}
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
Google
</body>
</html>
You'll need to add your own logic to track the sequence of clicks on the three letters.

The link could work, just have it execute a JavaScript method on the click rather than navigate to a page. Since you mentioned that there needs to be an order to the clicks, just have some variable's state transition based on the click sent.
<script type="text/javascript">
var track = 0;
function click_this(val)
{
// Manage your state here
}
</script>

JQuery trigger a keydown event first

Before asking this, I did some research on event capturing and bubbling. However, it still does not solve my problem.
I am writing an userscript for this website. Basically, I cannot change the website's code and I can only change my own userscript's code. The website has the window capture the event before my script can get it.
Here is a simplified example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
//I cannot change this code (it is part of the webpage):
$("p")[0].addEventListener("click",function(){
alert("p");
});
$(window)[0].addEventListener("click",function(){
alert("window");
},true);
//I can change this code (it is part of my userscript):
$("body")[0].addEventListener("click",function(){
alert("body: I want to come first");
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>Click Here</p>
</body>
</html>
Edit: Clarification
for this example, I would want the "body" alert to come first, without disabling the "window" or "p" alert. So I would want the result to be either:
"body", "window", "p"
or
"body", "p", "window"
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("body")[0].addEventListener("click",function(){
alert("body: I want to come first");
});
window.RemoveEventListener('click',alert,true);
//I cannot change this code (it is part of the webpage):
$("p")[0].addEventListener("click",function(){
alert("p");
});
$(window)[0].addEventListener("click",function(){
alert("window");
},true);
//I can change this code (it is part of my userscript):
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>Click Here</p>
</body>
</html>
You can using this as i have disabled the event alert and added your script at the starting of the script tag.

auto click a link when page loads doesn't work

I have a page for redirect purpose, I want to redirect user to another page once it hits this page:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Open App</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
alert("test"); //this shows up.
$('#openApp').click(); //this button is not clicked.
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
redirect
</body>
</html>
I want the redirect happen once this page is load. But the click function is not fired. I have to click the link by myself to redirect to google.com.
I normally wouldn't give you an alternative as an answer, but looking at your comments, it looks like you're just trying to redirect.
You can use window.location.replace('http://www.google.com'); for that.
$(document).ready(function () {
window.location.replace('http://www.google.com');
});
See also, this answer.
It's not possible to trigger a click event without any user interaction. In other words, if the function being called wasn't called from a user interaction, the click event will not get triggered.
In your case, simply update the window.location attribute:
window.location = 'http://www.google.com';
try this fiddle mate, added script is
$(document).ready(function () {
//this shows up.
$('#openApp')[0].click(); //this button is not clicked.
});

Make back button go to a different page

I'd like to JavaScript, or JQuery (or any plug in actually) to force the browser to load a specific page when the back button is clicked.
Basically insert a page into the browser's history.
I've found a way of doing it below, but it seems long winded. Am I missing something?
<html>
<head>
<title>Back button test</title>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.history.pushState('other.html', 'Other Page', 'other.html');
window.history.pushState('initial.html', 'Initial Page', 'initial.html');
</script>
Initial page <br />
<script type="text/javascript">
window.addEventListener("popstate", function(e) {
if(document.URL.indexOf("other.html") >= 0){
document.location.href = document.location;
}
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
In general, you can't modify the history of a browser, this is a major security feature. If you've found a way around it, that might work well for you, but keep in mind it might upset people. I know if I was on a site that hijacked the back button, I wouldn't be back. Instead, use better UX to give the user links.

Is it possible to make a link with 'target' attribute run script on another page?

*Update: Ultimately I've decided that accomplishing exactly what I want here isn't possible due to the issues it poses to security. Kalle's answer below gives a solution that is closest to what I want to accomplish.
In order to solve my problem I've created scripts on both pages and will use a sort of push notification that is routed through the server in order for them to communicate.
Thanks for the help!! *
I have two pages. Both windows already exist independently. Page two has a function declared in JS.
I would like to be able to call the function in window two by clicking a link in window one.
Page 1:
<html>
<head>
<title>This is a title!</title>
</head>
<body style="background: lightblue">
Click Me!
</body>
Page 2:
<html>
<head>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Window-target" CONTENT="my_target" />
<title>This is a title!</title>
<script type=text/javascript>
function clicked() {
alert('test');
}
</script>
</head>
<body style="background: lightblue">
</body>
Since it is on the same domain you can get this to work but would have to change the way you were doing it a little.
First off you would have to open it in a popup using this syntax rather than a new tab:
newwindow=window.open(url,'name','height=200,width=150');
and then you could simply call newwindow.clicked() after the popup is called.
update
just did a quick test and this will open it in a new tab. (sorry its been a while since I used the open function.
newwindow=window.open(url,'name');
Just noticed also that you should wait for the popup to load. So in my Example it would look a little something like this (with jQuery):
var newwindow = window.open('http://www.tylerbiscoe.com/vb/new.html');
$(newwindow).load(function(){
newwindow.clicked();
});
Ok, brand new answer. I hope this is what you were thinking. This is however, when you open page 2 from page 1.. So basically, page 1 would know who page 2 is..
Online example: http://kopli.pri.ee/stackoverflow/6832271.php
Page 1
<html>
<head>
<title>Page 1</title>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<style>
.ajaxlink {color: blue; cursor: pointer; border-bottom: 1px dotted blue;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<span id="open_page_2" class="ajaxlink">Open new window</span>
<br>
<br>
Click Me!
<script>
$('#open_page_2').click(function(){
child = window.open('test2.php','page_2','width=600,height=600');
});
$('a[target=my_target]').click(function () {
child.SecondPageFunction();
return false;
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
Page 2
<html>
<head>
<title>Page 2</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Your seeing page 2!</h1>
<script>
function SecondPageFunction () {
alert('Second page action got triggered!');
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
The script must be a part of the page you're opening in the new window. You're absolutely correct about it being a security flaw if it was elsewise allowed.
You could add some query string argument that could be picked up onload by javascript in the page you are opening and call your function if the query string arg is present.

Store domain in local storage and call it in href

I allow the user to store a domain in local storage (e.g. http://192.168.1.104). My method of pulling the domain out of local storage is like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
domain = localStorage['domain'];
function DOMAIN(dive) {
window.location=domain+dive;
}
</script>
and I can open it like this:
CLICK HERE
or
CLICK HERE
but I can't seem to get it to allow opening in a new tab (chrome v13). It's driving me nuts, any suggestions?
Try this:
CLICK HERE
Lets see if this works for you:
CLICK HERE
Okay, I figured it out, but it's a little hacky and restless. Make a dummy html document, say /html/home.html for instance. Call the js-function inside the dummy doc:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<title>Ripping Status</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
domain = localStorage['domain'] || '';
function init() {
window.location=domain+'/';
document.getElementById( 'box' );
};
</script>
</head>
<body onload="init();">
<div id="box"></div>
</body>
</html>
where 'domain' is stored as, say, http://192.168.1.101. Now, call /html/home.html inside the main html document via
CLICK HERE
and it allows right click > open new tab, window, etc as you would expect.
