JavaScript - How To Call An Array Thats In A Different File
Hi Guys,
I dont use JS much, I did take it in school years ago but cant remember much of it, what Im trying to do is quite simple, just a random quote gen but I want it to get the quots from a separate file as the quotes will appear on every page so I dont want to have to edit each page every time a new one needs to be added. I just found a simple quote generator online that I want to modify to call the array from a different file, the gen looks like this: var Quotation=new Array() // do not change this! Quotation[0] = "Time is of the essence! Comb your hair."; Quotation[1] = "Sanity is a golden apple with no shoelaces."; Quotation[2] = "Repent! The end is coming, $9.95 at Amazon."; Quotation[3] = "Honesty blurts where deception sneezes."; Quotation[4] = "Pastry satisfies where art is unavailable."; Quotation[5] = "Delete not, lest you, too, be deleted."; Quotation[6] = "O! Youth! What a pain in the backside."; Quotation[7] = "Wishes are like goldfish with propellors."; Quotation[8] = "Love the river's \"beauty\", but live on a hill."; Quotation[9] = "Invention is the mother of too many useless toys."; var Q = Quotation.length; var whichQuotation=Math.round(Math.random()*(Q-1)); function showQuotation(){document.write(Quotation[whichQuotation]);} showQuotation(); </script> If anyone could help me get that array into another file and call it from that script I would really appreciate it. Thanks guys! Similar Tutorialshello everyone im coding a website at the moment using aspx and i have came to a snag. im trying to make a dropdown list which is populated by an array call my chaletDetails.aspx page - each item in the array will be directed to this page. ive diffled abit, but the more i do the more im afraid of breaking something lol. if someone could maybe look at the code and show me how this could be achieved id appriciate it very much.

I want ask how can I call function located in java script file from html file . also I have many java scripts file connected to my html file . thanks.. I have a javascript file and a html file. On the html file I have an action (button) and would like to use some type of attribute of the onclick to call my function to open this html file. below is the beginning of my function: requestPanel_Forwardme: function() { view.opendialog("show_me") What other attributes of action can I use? can this function in my JS file be called and if so how would I call it? <action?? I'm having major pains trying to figure this out. I'm kind of new to Javascript, I need to open a text file from an external server, store each line in an array, then search that array for a certain word (HIGH), and if it exists then write something to the webpage, and if not, write something else. Here is what I have so far: Code: <html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<script>
<!--
function test(x) {
if (wxd1txt.readyState === 4 && wxd1txt.status === 200) { // Makes sure the document is ready to parse and Makes sure it's found the file.
var wxd1text = wxd1txt.responseText;
var wxd1array = wxd1txt.responseText.split("\n"); // Will separate each line into an array
var wxd1high = wxd1array.toString(); //Converting the String content to String
//var highsearchreg = new RegExp("HIGH");
//var wxd1high = wxd1array[x].search(highsearchreg);
document.write(wxd1high);
if (wxd1high.search("HIGH") >= 0){
document.write("HIGH RISK");}
else {
document.write("NO RISK");}
}
}

When added to a webpage, nothing shows up except the "Hi!" and there are no errors in the Javascript Console in Google Chrome. Is this possible with Javascript, and if so, what am I doing wrong or not doing? Also, I have 2 URLs, one is a text file that has the HIGH text I want for an example, the other is the current file, which shouldn't have HIGH in it (unless the weather in the US turns really bad) Hi, I am hoping I just need to be pointed in the right direction with this. I have Page1. When Page1 body onloads it uses Ajax to call PartA Within PartA I have a message board so members can write messages which will be sent to my database in PartA[1] and immediately posted for view on to PartA[2]. As I want to have my request to the server updating regularly I want to have PartA[2] on a timed loop to refresh - I do not need the content of PartA[1] to refresh. So the order of events would look like this: Page1 | onload call | v PartA / \ V V PartA[1] PartA[2] (loads once) (constantly refreshes) What I am not sure about is that I have <body> and <head> attributes in Page1 only. I have already used my body onload to call PartA (and can't use it to call PartA[2] before PartA has loaded anyway). I do not want the user to have to click a button or do anything to call up PartA[2]. So my question is how would I get PartA[2] to automatically load within PartA? I hope I have made this clear, but if I haven't let me know and I will try again. I'm just fooling around trying to make a simple ChatterBot. And I'm using IE to make a simple database of Answers and Sentences. Problem is it's acting odd when it's spliting into an array. In Answer.txt I have "Hello, *UserName*." (Which I will use the replace() to change that later.) And in Sentence.txt I have.... Hello. I always use "Hello." as the message. It's suppose to compare the message with the sentences... Both lowercased and symbols removed. But it doesn't seem to work just right when coverting the Text file to array. Code: function SearchForAnswers(Message) {
var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var a, ForReading, file;
ForReading = 1;
file = fso.OpenTextFile("Sentence.txt", ForReading, false);
var AllSentences = file.ReadAll();
Sentences = AllSentences.split("\n");
file.Close();
var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var a, ForReading, file;
ForReading = 1;
file = fso.OpenTextFile("Answer.txt", ForReading, false);
var AllAnswers = file.ReadAll();
Answers = AllAnswers.split("\n");
file.Close();
var count = 0;
var found = -1;
var TheAnswer;
while (count < Sentences.length) {
var checksent = Sentences[count].toLowerCase();
var checkmess = Message.toLowerCase();
alert("Message",checksent.replace(/\W/i, "")+" "+checkmess.replace(/\W/i, "")+" Count:"+count+" "+found);
if (checksent.replace(/\W/i, "") == checkmess.replace(/\W/i, "")){
var found = count;
TheAnswer = Answers[count];
}
count = count + 1
}
if (found == -1) {
var prompted = prompt("Answer please:", "");
SaveSentence(Message);
SaveAnswer(prompted);
TheAnswer = prompted;
}
return TheAnswer;
}
Resolved: I am just going to import .js files into my page. And just edit the external .js files. Hi, i need to read a files contents to an array so that i can check which lines of the file i need to write back. im not very good with arrays and haven't had any luck so far. thanks Hi, I have an external JS file with an array of menu links called (menu.js). The code is shown below: Code: <script>
var menuItem = new Array();

I have called the javascript in my websites main page (index.html), but it does not work. The html code is shown below: Code: <script type ="text/javascript" src="menu.js"></script> <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="Page(0);">Home</a> <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="Page(1);">Welcome Home</a> <a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="Page(2);">Key Resources</a> The javascript for the array of menu links works when it is inserted directly within the html file, but when it remains external and is called in index.html it does not work. I am not sure why this is the case. Could anyone give some pointers? Thanks, -Mike I have a Java Script that displays a Daily Affirmation on a webpage from an array of 365 Affirmations within the same html webpage file. This makes the html file size way too large. So I would like for the java script to read the array from an external text file on the same website server. Please provide me the Code to insert within my script which will read the array from an external text file - and also the format that the array of 365 lines must be typed into the external text file. I am not a Javascript Programmer - and know nothing about Javascript, so please write your reply at my (lack of) knowledge Level. Thank you in advance! Here is the code I am using. <script language=javascript> <!-- Date.prototype.getDOY = function() {var onejan = new Date(this.getFullYear(),0,1); return Math.ceil((this - onejan) / 86400000);} var today = new Date(); var DOY = today.getDOY(); var HL=new Array() //Configure the following array to hold the 365 HLs for each day of the year HL[1]='HL 1 goes here' HL[2]='HL 2 goes here' HL[3]='HL 3 goes here' // Jump to Day 224 of the year for this example only HL[224]='I am surrounding myself with positive and supportive people. When I nurture relationships that give me energy and enjoyment, I mirror my beliefs that I deserve such gifts.' HL[225]='Today I affirm my own worth and value, and discover that the world agrees with me.' HL[226]='I am sowing seeds based on a healthy belief in my own self-worth. My life is flourishing with growing love, contentment, and exciting possibilities.' HL[227]='HL 227 goes here' HL[228]='HL 228 goes here' // Jump to last HL for Day 365 of year - for this example only HL[365]='HL 365 goes here' document.write(HL[DOY]) //--> </script> Hello all, I am a newbie to api and I want to bring job website into my site using that job website's api. They provide calling url to the xml api to get response. But I dont to know how to get response through javascript. Can you please help me to call that api through javascript or java? Hope that it is simple to you. Thanks in advance... I'm trying to implement this 'ajax' script, however i'm getting the following error: function expected line 25. And I'm not the only person who is getting this error message :S How can the code be altered so it will work? Also the script isn't executed when I change onclick in onload :S How come and how can I change it so that it will be executed on launch? http://chriscook.me/web-development/...icking-a-link/ Hello. Started my massive JavaScript career just yesterday and the forums I frequent still lack a proper BB-code hide-tag, so I figured I'd try make it in JavaScript, since HTML is allowed on there. This is what I did: Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function show() {
document.getElementById('silHideTextTag').innerHTML='Hidden text!!';
document.getElementById('silHideTextBtn').value='Hide';
document.getElementById('silHideTextBtn').onclick='hide()';
}
function hide() {
document.getElementById('silHideTextTag').innerHTML=' ';
document.getElementById('silHideTextBtn').value='Show';
document.getElementById('silHideTextBtn').onclick='show()';
}
</script>
<input type='button' id='silHideTextBtn' onclick='show()' value='Show'/>
<div id='silHideTextTag'> </div>
The button labelled "Show" appears fine, when I click it it becomes "Hide" and the text "Hidden text!!" is shown. However, when I click the button again, nothing happens at all. I don't quite understand where the problem is. Thanks in advance for any clues. Best regards, Zyl Hello, if in a webpage is included a javascript file (for example code.js) can I from my browser call a function contained in code.js and will it works correctly? I'm not meaning that the function is called in the page with or without a link to click, but it is only in code.js! Thank you! Right for day's i've searching for a jQuery/js/ajax script that opens like facebooks box where you can delete things update posts and so on... But i don't want that facebox thing i want a tut where i can buy things that will insert into the database and delete things and sooo on... I've made the box i just want the script for it.... I'm not good with js/jQuery/ajax.... Thanks. hi i'm trying to call a web service from java script code stored NOT in Html but in an extenarl file .js. My code is this: service.useService("http://localhost:10000/WebS_cod_01/WebS_codEurService.asmx?wsdl", "WebS"); Photo = service.WebS.callService("webS_codEurProcessWS" , photoID); checking with Firebug i find this message: "service is not defined" where i'm wrong ? thanks in advance My problem is that I am trying to call an function within an SWF. Now, I already know how to setup my SWF and that isn't the problem. The problem is that when I try to call the function using Javascript, I am told that the function doesn't exist. I'll show you the code right here. Code: function AudioPlayerEmbed( e )
{
if ( e.success )
{
e.ref.LoadAudio( 'http://therevolve.com/upload/userfiles/Music/Alec_Smith1.mp3' );
}
}
swfobject.embedSWF("player/MP3Player.swf", "flash", "300", "90", "9.0.0", "player/expressInstall.swf", null, null, null, AudioPlayerEmbed );
HOWEVER, when I put some alert before the call, it happens to work. What is going on? Code: function AudioPlayerEmbed( e )
{
alert("A");
if ( e.success )
{
e.ref.LoadAudio( 'http://therevolve.com/upload/userfiles/Music/Alec_Smith1.mp3' );
}
}
swfobject.embedSWF("player/MP3Player.swf", "flash", "300", "90", "9.0.0", "player/expressInstall.swf", null, null, null, AudioPlayerEmbed );
Here is a live example. Any help would be appreciated. If you need more information, I can provide it. http://www.zooprinting.com/welcome the section with 5 things that rotate starts with "free design online" i need to make an element like that on my site, and i'm pretty handy at googling until i find the script i'm looking for and making it work, but i can't figure out what in the world to call that. it's commonly used but i just can't seem to get my search terms right. anyone know where i can find said script? Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function _enabled() {
var alertmessage="You are using adblocking software. Ads are a general way to cover server costs. Please disable your adblocking software."
var once_per_session=1
function get_cookie(Name) {
var search = Name + "="
var returnvalue = "";
if (document.cookie.length > 0) {
offset = document.cookie.indexOf(search)
if (offset != -1) {
offset += search.length
end = document.cookie.indexOf(";", offset);
if (end == -1)
end = document.cookie.length;
returnvalue=unescape(document.cookie.substring(offset, end))
}
}
return returnvalue;
}
function alertornot(){
if (get_cookie('adblock')==''){
loadalert()
document.cookie="adblock=yes"
}
}
function loadalert(){
alert(alertmessage)
}
if (once_per_session==0)
loadalert()
else
alertornot()
}
function _disabled() {
}
var _abdDetectedFnc = '_enabled';
var _abdNotDetectedFnc = '_disabled';
</script>
My script right now will call upon cookies to show an alert ONE time per session. I need to know two things. How could I make it only show ONE time until a person deletes their cookies, and how can I make it so it displays a html message upon the page instead of a JS popup? |
