JavaScript - Random Function Safari Bug
Hey all,
I have a sentence generator running on a site. I am using sort to shuffle the array and pop to return the item. All is well, except Safari does not shuffle the array. Here is the technique I am using: Code: <script type = "text/javascript">
var adj=["invisible", "running", "eating", "mad", "talking", "jumping", "living", "weird", "super"];
for (i = 1; i <= 4; i++){
adj.sort(function(){return Math.round(Math.random());});
document.write( [
"Bob is" + " " + adj.pop() + "." + "<br>"
]);
}
</script>
In most browsers it generates 4 unique sentences. But in Safari it does not shuffle the array so it will always output: Bob is super. Bob is weird. Bob is living. Bob is jumping. Any ideas as to what is happening? Similar Tutorials***I need to randomise the order of some questions that are in this format. Any ideas? Thank you!*** <CODE> <!---Question4---> <form name="form4" method="post" action=""> <h3><p>First One</p></h3> <p> <label><input type="radio" name="q4" id="w1" value="1" </label> <label><input type="radio" name="q4" id="w2" value="2" </label> <label><input type="radio" name="q4" id="w3" value="2" </label> </p> </form </CODE> I've a list of questions and i want them to appear in random order but I'm unable to do so at the moment. Is there a way of randomizing them by ID name or similar seem as each Question has Three answers via radio buttons and I've them grouped together by ID name?
I need help adding an additional function to some existing java script code I already have. In addition to the functions already on this js, I want make it so the banner displays one of the images randomly on each new page load. I have an external js file that this page also links too. Not sure if I need to post that also. I was hoping to just add to this code. Any help is greatly appreciated <script type="text/javascript" src="js/homepage-banners/simplegallery.js"> </script> <script type="text/javascript"> var mygallery=new simpleGallery({ wrapperid: "simplegallery1", dimensions: [250, 180], imagearray: [ ["img/headers/automotive.jpg", "http://www.visionsystem.com/applications/automotive_metal.php", "", ""], ["img/headers/electrical.jpg", "http://www.visionsystem.com/applications/electronics.php", "", ""], ["img/headers/food-packaging.jpg", "http://www.visionsystem.com/applications/food_pharmaceutical.php", "", ""], ["img/headers/medical-pharmaceutical.jpg", "http://www.visionsystem.com/applications/food_pharmaceutical.php", "", ""], ["img/headers/semiconductor.jpg", "http://www.visionsystem.com/applications/electronics.php", "", ""], ["img/headers/automation.jpg", "http://www.visionsystem.com/applications/food_pharmaceutical.php", "", ""] ], autoplay: [false, 2500, 2], persist: false, fadeduration: 500, oninit:function(){ }, onslide:function(curslide, i){ } }) </script> Another homework assignment that I can't quite seem to get to work... I've been asked to do the following using javascript: -Create a function named randInt() with one parameter of "size". Declare a variable named "rNum" equal to a random integer between 1 and the value of the size variable. Return the value of the "rNum" varialbe from the function. -Create a function named getQuote() with one parameter anemd "qNum". The function should create an array named mtQuotes with five quotes; there should be no quote for the array index "0". Return the value of the mtQuotes array for the qNum index. - In the div element of "quotes" insert a script with the following commands: Declare a variable named "randValue" which is euqal to a random integer between 1 and 5 (use the randInt() function). Declare a variable named "quoteText" containing the quote whose array index value is equal to randValue. Write the value of quoteText to the web page. Here is what I have...it returns undefined. thanks. Code:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function randInt(size) {
var rNum=Math.ceil(Math.random()*5);
return(rNum);
}

var mtQuotes = new Array();
mtQuotes[0] = "";

Hi there! I'm trying to retrieve the integer value in the string: #10 So I'm using the JS Split function Code: <script type="text/javascript">
var str="#10";
document.write(str.split("#"));
</script>
Is the code I'm using, but I keep getting a comma before my result.. in this case, my result is ",10" What should I do? Thanks! Kind Regards Matthew P.S. I know that it's an array, but is there still anyway for me to get rid of the comma? Found this random background img code that works great: Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeImg(imgNumber) {
var myImages = ["images/image0.jpg", "images/image1.jpg", "images/image2.jpg", "images/image3.jpg"];
var imgShown = document.body.style.backgroundImage;
var newImgNumber =Math.floor(Math.random()*myImages.length);
document.body.style.backgroundImage = 'url('+myImages[newImgNumber]+')';
}
window.onload=changeImg;
</script>
<style type="text/css">
.bg {background-attachment:fixed; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position:0% 0%;}
</style>
</head>
<body class="bg">
<p>Some text</p>
<!-- put a lot text lines here to see that the background stays fixed. -->
<p>Some text</p>
</body>
The only problem i have is making the background image width and height 100% so that the entire image fills in the screen and fills in on resize of window. Please Help...thanks in advance Sorry about the title, I didn't know what else to use to describe my problem. Basically, I'm generating a random word with a function; then I'm trying to pass this word down to another function. The problem is, when I pass the word, it changes each time (due to it being randomly generated originally). I'm only calling the function once (via button click), but I'm also calling the function in my code lower down to retrieve the returned variable; and the function seems to be running again and returning a new word from my array. Here's a snippet of my code: Code: function ranNum(){
var ranNum = Math.round(Math.random()*10);
var chosenWord = wordArray[ranNum];
return chosenWord;
}
function makeBoxes(x){
//remove children when new word is chosen
var hM = document.getElementById("hangMan");
while(hM.firstChild){
hM.removeChild(hM.firstChild);
}
var chosenWord = ranNum(x);
var wL = chosenWord.length;
//create box for length of letters in word
var i = 0;
for(i=0;i<wL;i++){
var cBoxes = document.createElement("div");
cBoxes.className = "letterBoxes";
cBoxes.innerHTML = chosenWord.charAt(i);
hangMan.appendChild(cBoxes);
}
return chosenWord;
}
function checkLetter(y){
var chosenWord = makeBoxes(y);
alert(chosenWord);
}
So I generate a word with one button; now I need to be able to work with said word in my checkLetter() function. The word changes however. Any help would be greatly received. I've looked for a solution to this issue, but it seems like a little different scenario than other situations. I made a system for generating friend requests on Facebook. I have a grid that is 6 x 3, for a total of 18 cells. Each cell has a picture in it, and the picture is linked to the Facebook friend request page. My problem is that since each cell is populated at random from the array, I'm getting lots of repeats. For example, some picutures are in 5 cells, and some are in none. I'm trying to figure out how to make it so that once a picture is used once in the grid, it does not get used again in the same grid. I still want every cell filled at random on each page load, I just want to prevent the repeating. Here's my current code: Code: <script type="text/javascript">

Any suggestions? Thank you! Hi, I am facing a problem in passing replace() function as an argument in user defined java function, can any one help me how to resolve it? intention is to pass a file path to my user defined function, but before passing the path i want to replace the character '\' to '\\' I am posting my javascript function he <a href="#" onclick="OpenDocPreview('<%# Eval("PATH")%>'.replace(/\\/g,"\\\\"), '<%# Eval("Filename")%>')"><%# Eval("DocTitle") %></a> function OpenDocPreview(url, docname) { alert('message from search base : ' + url + ' ' + docname); } thank you, I was working on a tutorial for some ajax uploading stuff and I ran across a new function syntax I don't recognize. I am not a Javascript pro, but I am not a newbie either. here is the code I am working on: Code: function handleFileSelect(e){
var files = e.target.files;
var output = [];
for(var i=0,f;f=files[i];i++){
if(f.type.match('image.*')){
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = (function(theFile){
return function(e){
var span = document.createElement('span');
span.innerHTML = ['<img class="thumb" src="',e.target.result,'" title="',theFile.nbame,'" />'].join('');
document.getElementById('list').insertBefore(span,null);
};
})(f);
reader.readAsDataURL(f);
}
}
document.getElementById('list').innerHTML = '<ul>'+output.join('')+'</ul>';
}
document.getElementById('files').addEventListener('change',handleFileSelect,false);
To be a little more clear, the code in question is that is the very middle. The syntax I don't understand is: Code: class.event = (function(arguments){
//stuff you put in a function...
})(more Arguments?);
I tried to customize a simple one to learn for myself and I wrote this: Code: var a = 'A';
var b = 'B';
test = (function(t){
alert(t);
alert(b);
})(b);
test(a);
The browser would alert 'B' and that's it. The console would tell me that 'test is not a function.' OK, so I am confused. The topmost code works. What I am wondering is what the syntax is called for creating a function (or event listener?) that way, and how it works. Although if I new what it was called I could just google how it works. Hi everyone, I have a javascript which used to delete object(s) when the "delete' button is clicked. The script is working fine on IE, but on Safari it do not wwork at all (when I click delete button the webpage stays the same). I think the reason is Safari is using a different javascript interpreter which cannot parse javascript developed in IE properly, such as "fireEvent". Please help me to fix the script for it to work on Safari. Here is the script: Code: function DeleteClick()
{
var frmSWO = document.getElementById("form");
var answer = confirm("Do you really want to delete?")
if (answer != 0)
{
frmSWO.action = "/domsWeb/mtd/doms/web/operation/controller/manageWorkOrder/DeleteJobOrImage.do";
frmSWO.method = "post";
this.form.fireEvent('onsubmit');
frmSWO.submit();
}
}
I do appreciate any help. This seems to work ok to serve css to Opera: Code: if(history.navigationMode){
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="opera.css">') }
Is there a way to use Code: @media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0){}
to serve css to Safari? ie, without having to use it on each tag in the main stylesheet? Tried Code: if(@media screen and (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0)){
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="safari.css">') }
but I think it's missing an 'is true' phrase... ? and this one Code: if('@media screen' && '(-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio:0)'){
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="safari.css">')}
picks up Firefox and Opera as well. the page in question is http://martysimpson.com In firefox search the source code for Code: <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

I am on a mac using osx.4.11 firefox version 3.5 renders the above just fine.

function disable(element)
{
var input = document.getElementById(element).getElementsByTagName("input");
for(var i = 0; i < input.length; i++)
{
input[i].setAttribute("disabled","true");
}
}
</script>
I tried to make the inverse by simply reversing the setAttribute() like so: Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function enable(element)
{
var input = document.getElementById(element).getElementsByTagName("input");
for(var i = 0; i < input.length; i++)
{
input[i].setAttribute("disabled","false");
}
}
</script>
But that didn't do it. Can someone show me why, and how to fix it? Here's the sample form which I'm trying to test it on: Code: <form>
<input type="radio" name="test" onclick="disable('D1')" /> disable<br/>
<input type="radio" name="test" onclick="enable('D1')" /> enable<br/>
<fieldset id="D1">
<input class="" type="text" value="test value1" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value2" /><br/>
<input class="" type="text" value="test value3" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value4" /><br/>
<input class="" type="text" value="test value5" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value6" /><br/>
</fieldset>
</form>
Edit: The ultimate goal which I'm working toward now (step by step =) is to have a form more like: Code: <form>
<input type="radio" name="test" onclick="disable('D1')" />
<fieldset id="D1">
<input class="" type="text" value="test value1" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value2" />
</fieldset>
<input type="radio" name="test" onclick="disable('D2')" />
<fieldset id="D2">
<input class="" type="text" value="test value3" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value4" />
</fieldset>
<input type="radio" name="test" onclick="disable('D3')" />
<fieldset id="D3">
<input class="" type="text" value="test value5" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value6" />
