JavaScript - Help!! Redirect Based On Time And Date?

Hello everyone...

I have Javascript code here which gives the time (hours, minutes, seconds) and date (year, month, day), and it updates every second. What I want to do is redirect to a certain page every 10 minutes, on the 10th, 20th, 30th, 40th, 50th and 60th minutes.

The time displays and updates every second, but no redirect happens. Please fix my code! Thanks in advance.


Code:

<tr><td align="center">
<SPAN ID="clock"><?php echo date('d/m/Y <\b\r> H:i:s', time()); ?></SPAN>
</td></tr>

<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">

	var year2 = <?php echo date('Y', time()); ?>;
	var month2 = <?php echo date('m', time()); ?>;
	var day2 = <?php echo date('d', time()); ?>;
	var hour2 = <?php echo date('H', time()); ?>;
	var minute2 = <?php echo date('i', time()); ?>;
	var second2 = <?php echo date('s', time()); ?>;
	var daysInMonth = <?php echo date('t', time()); ?>;

	function updateClock()
	{
		second2+=1;
		if(second2>=60){second2=0;minute2+=1;}
		if(minute2>=60){minute2=0;hour2+=1;}
		if(hour2>=24){hour2=0;day2+=1;}
		if(day2>daysInMonth){day2=0;month2+=1;}
		if(month2>12){month2=0;year2+=1;}
		byt(nollor(day2)+"/"+nollor(month2)+"/"+year2+"<br />"+nollor(hour2)+":"+nollor(minute2)+":"+nollor(second2),"clock");

		updateUtlogg();
		redirect(minute2,second2);

	}

	var utloggUtloggad = false;

	function updateUtlogg()
	{
		if(utloggUtloggad)
		{
			return true;
		}

		return(true);
	}

	function nollor(nummer)
	{
		if(nummer<10)
		{
			tmp="0"+nummer;
		}
		else
		{
			tmp=nummer;
		}
		return tmp;
	}

	function byt(txt,lager)
	{
		if(document.getElementById(lager))
		{
			document.getElementById(lager).innerHTML=txt;
		}
	}


	function redirect(x,y)  {
	if(nollor(x)==0 && nollor(y)==0 || nollor(x)==10 && nollor(y)==0 || nollor(x)==20 && nollor(y)==0 || nollor(x)==30 && nollor(y)==0 || nollor(x)==40 && nollor(y)==0 || nollor(x)==50 && nollor(y)==0)
			{
	setTimeout("location.href = updateInterval.php;",0);
			}
				}


	var oInterval = window.setInterval("updateClock()",1000);

I am having some trouble trying to adapt some code to create a better user experience. I use a Rapid E-learning Dev Tool called Udutu. Its limited in some functionality but I'm hoping to find a workaround.

As with a lot of e-learning, user activity including their assessment score is passed to the LMS via a Scorm connection. I need to get that score and then based on the percentage (i.e <= 79) re-direct the user automatically to a page.

To get the score within Udutu is as follows:

Code:

<p>Your score is: <span id=theScore></span>
<script>try{var theScoreEl = document.getElementById('theScore');theScoreEl.innerHTML= Math.round(UDUTU_API.generateScore());}catch(ex){}</script>
% </p>

This bit works fine but now I need to include a if statement to look at the value that it produces and redirect the user accordingly. I've tried to do this but I keep breaking the above code.

Any help would really be appreciated

Hi,

I am trying to implement a script which redirects visitors to one of 24 html pages based on the hour it is when they visit. I have tried a number of other script I could find and nothing even close to working has been achieved.

The pages are named: 0.html, 1.html, 2.html.....up to....22.html & 23.html

I already have a simple script in use for the day of the week and am sure there must be something similar I can do for the hour of day.

Any help that can be offered will be greatly appreciated as this is driving me mad.

Hello,


Im looking for a script where i can have people come to my websites index page, watch a short video and learn about what my site is about, then click a button called "always skip to "my website here" " so once they click that button, they will always be directed to my main website when they return.

I belive it will need to be done with cookies aswell?

Thanks
Chris,

I have a page up with an iframe that's approximately 300px by 405px. When I load up the site in FF and IE, it frames just fine. However, in Chrome and Opera the iframe is shifted upwards and is off-frame.

I've tried looking for a solution to center the iframe correctly. Someone said to make a php code that loads 2 different iframes depending on browser (1 iframe for IE/FF and another frame for OP/CH). I have no knowledge of php coding, so I couldn't get it to work.


So now, I think I'm limited to redirecting users based on browser type. If the user is using FF or IE, I'll redirect them to my original page. If they're using some other browser, I'll redirect them to a different page without the iframe.

I've tried to set up a redirector, but it has trouble distinguishing between FF and Chrome. It treats them exactly the same.

Does anyone have any advice on what to do? I've done tons of searching for what seems to be such a small problem. Someone please enlighten me.

This is what I tried but alas, it does not work por que no?

This is located on my main index file which if the result of z is greater than 1, I would have the user stay at this page as opposed to redirecting to the portrait design. I have optimized the website for mobile use so there is a reason of having two different pages, the wide screen has extra tools / other stuff that isn't shown on the portrait not because of size/responsive design but becasue I want it to be this way. Anyway... "What's the situation captain?"

This is located above my <style> tag

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<script>
function redirect() {
var x = screen.width;
var y = screen.height;
var z = x/y;
    if (z<1) {
    window.location.replace("alternate destination");
    };
    else ( ){
    // stay here
    };
};
</script>

You have extra semicolons in there. In general, don't put a semicolon directly after a right brace };

There are a couple of exceptions, but they don't apply here.

What's the point in having the else??

I have a site where users enter there certain timezome (+1, +4, -8 etc) and i want to display a clock with the local time on their profile page so when people view there profile they can see currently what time it is for them.

I currently a have this.

Code:

function timeclock()
{
var t=setTimeout("startclock()",500);
}

function startclock()
{

var x = new Date();
var hour = x.getHours();
var min = x.getMinutes();
var sec = x.getSeconds();
	if (hour<10){hour="0"+hour}
	if (min<10){min="0"+min}
	if (sec<10){sec="0"+sec}
document.getElementById("clock").innerHTML=hour+":"+min+":"+sec;
timeclock();
}

Is it possible to alter the date dependent on the timezone? Maybe put startclock(timezone) andchange it to new Date(timezone);?

I am having trouble writing this javascript for my work, normally I would do this in ASP or PHP, but the environment I am working with will only allow javascript for dynamic function.

The form has two different select boxes and based on your options selected for select box #1 and select box #2, the hidden input field "redirect" (which is currently empty) would then populate dynamically with the URL associated with that combination mentioned below. The hidden redirect input field (now containing dyanmically generated data) would then pass the new value via HTTP_POST to .net script that will handle the redirect processing step fed to it.

Here are the mappings:

If selections = Elementary & Vocabulary = http://www.widget.com/content/elem-vocab

If selections = Elementary & Writing = http://www.widget.com/content/elem-writing

If selections = Elementary & ELD = http://www.widget.com/content/elem-eld

If selections = Middle School & Vocabulary = http://www.widget.com/content/midscl-vocab

If selections = Middle School & Writing = http://www.widget.com/content/midscl-writing

If selections = Middle School & ELD = http://www.widget.com/content/midscl-eld

If selections = High School & Vocabulary = http://www.widget.com/content/hiscl-vocab

If selections = High School & Writing = http://www.widget.com/content/hiscl-writing

If selections = High School & ELD = http://www.widget.com/content/hiscl-eld


Here's a snippet of a different method that I tried, but it did not work. I think the above mentioned method would probably be best.

Code:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function build() {

document.fillgaps.redirect.value = "http://www.widget.com/content/" + document.fillgaps.grade.value + "-" + document.fillgaps.solution.value ;

//print example: http://www.widget.com/content/ELM-VOC

return true;

}

-->
</script>


<form name="fillgaps" action="http://www.widget.com/submit.aspx" method="post" onSubmit="return build();">

<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="">

<table class="elqFormTable" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2">


<tr>
<td valign="top">Grade:</td>
<td>
<select name="grade">
<option value="ELM">Elementary</option>
<option value="MID">Middle School</option>
<option value="HIG">High School</option>
</select>
</td>
</tr>

<tr >
<td valign="top">Solution:</td>
<td>
<select name="solution">
<option value="VOC">Vocabulary</option>
<option value="WRI">Writing</option>
<option value="ELD">ELD</option>
</select>

Hey.

I'm currently looking for a countdown script, which is based on the server's time. I've only found scripts, that's based on the local computer's time, which means the output of the script changes, when the time on the computer is changed.

And I want to make a public announcement which counts down to something - and should output the same at every person.

I'm not that familiar with JavaScript, I know some jQuery - if anyone can supply any links or can help me with this, I'd appreciate it.

Hi Guys,

I am looking for a script to change text on a page based on the time of day. From 9am - 5pm weekdays I would like the page to display 'Open', and outside of that window to display 'Closed'. I am using HTML & PHP.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt

Javascript novice here looking to create a dynamic dropdown based on date.
It's a list of preset prices that will change each month to reflect a pro-rated system. Any thoughts/examples on how I would go about setting this up using javascript would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Here's what I need:

In September, the dropdown will display these prices
Code:

<option value="100">Product 1</option>
<option value="150">Product 2</option>
<option value="200">Product 3</option>

In October, the dropdown will display these prices
<option value="50">Product 1</option>
<option value="100">Product 2</option>
<option value="150">Product 3</option>

I have this script that I got from some site. When you click on a link tied to a div it hides all other divs and displays just that one. Well, that works, but I want it to display one of the divs on page load based on today's date.

For example, it will display the "summer" div if today's date is anywhere between June 1 and August 31. When links to other divs are clicked that div will disappear and other ones will appear in its place. Anyway, here's the code, and I don't know anything about javascript so I have no idea where to even start editing it. Please help

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!-- Layer Show/Hide Script
last=""
function changeDiv(the_div,the_change)
{
	var the_style = getStyleObject(the_div);
	
	if (the_style != false)
	{
		the_style.display = "block"
	
		if(last!="")
		{
			last.display = "none"
		}
	}
	
	last=the_style
}
	
function getStyleObject(objectId) 
{
	if (document.getElementById && document.getElementById(objectId)) 
	{
		return document.getElementById(objectId).style;
	} 
	
	else if (document.all && document.all(objectId)) 
	{
		return document.all(objectId).style;
	} 
	
	else 
	{
		return false;
	}
}

Hello

I am trying to do something similar to this post http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?t=168903

except I need it to be dependent on the hour and minute.

Background:
I am trying to create a schedule website, the schedule has say 20 items and I want it to display the current "active" event in the schedule, 1 previous event and 3 future events so a total of 5 items from the schedule.

An event can range from 30 minutes to 2 hours long, so simply using the above code will not work. It needs to take the minutes into consideration as well.

Let me know if you have additional questions.

EDIT: 17-Mar-12 @ 12:37PM
I would rather not use a bunch of if statements. (http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?t=250358) The schedule could change mid day so having to go through and edit a bunch of if statements would not be ideal
