JavaScript - How To Replace Return Value With <br>
I have a javascript that takes information from a form and recompiles that information into a readable shift report. The problem I am having is with returns in the textareas. I tried:
Code: theReport = theReport.replace(" ","<br>" but that space puts the rest of the var on a different line and screws with the results. How can I replace a return with <br>? Similar TutorialsI don't understand the logic of Break, Return False, Return True. It was never really covered in our college class, and I see everyone using it. I got an A in the class, if that 'proves' that I really tried to apply myself. NOTE: I understand what the function is doing. I just don't understand WHEN to use break, return false or return true if the the translator can determine the conditional statements. PHP Code: function submitForm(){ var ageSelected = false; for (var i=0; i<5; ++1){ if (document.forms[0].ageGroup[i].checked == true) { ageSelected = true; break; } } if (ageSelected == false){ window.alert("You must select your age group"); return false; } else return false; } if the the translator can determine the conditional statements, why not write it like this: PHP Code: function submitForm(){ var ageSelected = false; for (var i=0; i<5; ++1){ if (document.forms[0].ageGroup[i].checked == true) { ageSelected = true; break; // what's the point for the 'break'? Won't the rest of the code be ignored since it passed the first condition? } } if (ageSelected == false){ window.alert("You must select your age group"); return false; } // why not leave the last else out? is it just a 'safety' catch, in case something other than true or false is inputted? else return false; // what's the point? } Questions: Why use return true, if the translator knows it's ture? Why use "return false" if the translator knows it's false and the alert window has already gone up? why not use "break" to stop the code? Why use the "return false" at the end "else" statement? Hi room, Hey, I opened up the source code for this page in google chrome and since i'm learning javascript, i wanted see if i could "read" it and figure out what was going on. I'm am having the hardest time understanding "return false" and "return true". Could someone step me through this via interpreting this code (in bold typeface): Code: var DefaultValue = 'Search'; function clearSearch() { if (document.searchForm.q.value == DefaultValue) { document.searchForm.q.value = ''; } } function validateSearchHeader() { if ( document.searchForm.q.value == '' || document.searchForm.q.value.toLocaleLowerCase() == DefaultValue.toLocaleLowerCase() ) { alert('Please enter at least one keyword in the Search box.'); document.searchForm.q.focus(); return false; } return true; } Thanks! i am trying to make an online graphing calculator with javascript. dont ask how because i dont know. but there is an annoying error in a do...while loop. although it should break out of the loop when the |'s (absolute value signs) are replaced with Math.abs( and ). here is the code. Code: var initec = function(){ var rg = { } ; rg.matc = false; rg.i = 0; rg.change = function(equ){ if (typeof(equ) != "string"){ alert('Equation must be a string'); return; } alert("starting equation: "+ equ); rg.i = 0; do{ rg.matc = equ.match(/\|/); if(rg.i === 0){ equ.replace(/\|/, " Math.abs("); rg.i = 1; alert("1 "+equ); } else { equ.replace(/\|/, " ) "); rg.i = 0; alert("0 "+equ); } }while(rg.matc) alert("finished equation: " + equ); } return rg; } rg=initec(); rg.change("|8/x+7|-2"); the last 2 lines and the alerts are for debugging. as you can see, it is not finished. but still, it should work. in the div class "done" it reads 13/34 i want to compare these to numbers like this if (13 < 34){do something()} else {return false;} so i am trying to get each number by it self to compare with. var did=m[1].getElementsByClassName("done")[1].innerText.replace(/\/.*/,"").value; this line returns 13 correctly. var need=m[1].getElementsByClassName("done")[1].innerText.replace(? ,"").value; this ? the info that i need to get for the other number. i know how to do it if it were a letter but can find the correct way being that it is a / instead. Thx First of all, I don't want to replace text in a form, or on click. I'm writing up a design document in HTML, and I need an area to display code. The < and > tags won't show up, obviously, but to make it easier on the programmer, I don't want him to have to manually put in < and > for each time it shows up. I am aware that JavaScript has a replace function, but I am not familiar with JavaScript quite yet. Is there a way to have JavaScript find the < and > in a certain div, and replace it with < and > on load? I would appreciate your help so much, Its been frustrating me. I found a regular expression that will strip my string of every html tag... var stripped = htmlStr.replace(/(<([^>]+)>)/ig,""); Well, I also want it to strip every thing between parentheses, square brackets, and replace " &# 160;" with a space. It would be really cool if you could explain how to do this as well, because the stuff in the above code after "replace" confuses me. I have no idea how that's working. Hi I'm looking for a very simple script to replace one div with another. I've found a few but they seem overly complicated with features I don't need. I simply want to be able to click on a div and for it to be replaced with another div previously hidden. If someone could suggest a solution or point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it. Thanks i'm trying to get some information with this code from my database: Code: function getTableSize(tableName){ db.transaction ( function(tx) { tx.executeSql ('SELECT * FROM '+ tableName,[] , function(tx, r) { return r.rows.length; } ); } ); } but it doesnt work and i cant figure why what i want is that this function return the table size to one variable in another function...something like: Code: var groupTableSize = getTableSize('groups'); i have this in my javascript code but have no idea on how a returned value works/where does it return to???? what do i do/or can i do with a value that gets returned??? i am asking this so i can learn on how to use it cos i am new to all this and dont know how it works...please show/explain to me please? thanks here my full code: PHP Code: <?php use_stylesheets_for_form($form) ?> <?php use_javascripts_for_form($form) ?> <html> <head> <script type="text/JavaScript"> function refreshPage(s) { window.location.reload(); if((s.options[s.selectedIndex].value) = "zed-catcher") { var $index = s.selectedIndex; var $value = s.options[$index].value; alert (s.selectedIndex); alert ($value); window.location.reload(); [COLOR="Red"]return &value; //where does it return to ???? how/what to do with a return value???[/COLOR] } } </script> </head> </html> <body> <form action="<?php echo url_for('adminservice/'.($form->getObject()->isNew() ?

Hi all, I have this code: Code: <input type="hidden" value="update_cart" name="ca"> <input type="hidden" value="2" name="numcart"> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Update Cart" class="inpSubmit"> I'd like to replace this: Code: <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Update Cart" class="inpSubmit"> with this: Code: <button>blabla<button> How can I do? I know something about unobtrusive javascript but I don't know how to do it. Thank you very much I know how the replace method works, but I can't for the life of me figure out exactly what this replace function is doing... Can someone shed somelight for me? the g I *think* is a flag for global replacement... Code: replace(/\s/g, " "); I know that *something* is being replaced by a non-blank space, but what? document.write(str.replace(/(\+|\(|\)|.|-|\/ /g,'')); feeble attempt to remove '.' '(' ')' ' ' '-' '/'and '+' Does anyone know if it it possible to automatically replace any instance of & with 'and' using javascript when someone types into a text input?
Code: dropDownPart.innerHTML = tmpInnerHTML; how does this tmpInnerHTML gets filled : Code: for (var i = 0; i < arr.length ; i++) { var arr1 = arr[i].split('|'); id_tezaver = arr1[0]; term = arr1[1] // if arr1[1] contains ', then ewerything after that disapears inside term, // like "bird's eyes" becomes "bird" // how to handle that ? // bad example how I get to verify that the stuff is complete inside array // term = arr1[1].replace(/'/i, /oo/); } Hi, I need function for replacing one string with some html tag (for example <div>something</div>) in web page. Tricky is that in this replacing I must ignore all text between <a> and </a>. It's look easy but I am not good in javascript.
How would you do a .replace for a Javascript if statment.
Building a shopping cart, at the moment I have 1 variable array. My JS gets values from hidden inputs when add to shopping cart is clicked. The JS then pushes them all into the array in order. I've managed to get the js code to replace innerHTML and add the array to the HTML to show the products, quantity and totals in a table. However its only showing the last product, price, and total in the array in the table. I need to get it to do this: Product: Quantity: Total: Product1 1 1 Product2 2 2 Product3 3 3 So basically I think I need to have my 3 for statements then plus 2 to each i instead of i++ to print out the products but that still doesn't solve my problem with printing every product in a vertical list, same with quantity and same with total. Heres the code Code: var cart= new Array(); function readInput(){ var prd=document.test.prd.value; var prc=document.test.prc.value; var qty=document.test.amount.value; var total= prc * qty; cart.push( prd ) cart.push( qty ) cart.push( total ); var lenp=cart.length; for(var i = 0; i<lenp-2; i++ ) { document.getElementById("product").innerHTML = cart[i]; } for(var i = 0; i<lenp-1; i++ ) { document.getElementById("qty").innerHTML = cart[i]; } for(var i = 0; i<lenp; i++ ) { document.getElementById("total").innerHTML = cart[i]; } } Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css\basic.css" /> <script language="JavaScript" src="test.js"></script> <title>Shopping Time</title> <body> <form name="test"> <input type="hidden" name="prd" value="Paper"> <p class="desc" value="Paper"> Product: Paper 1</p> <p class="desc"> <input type="hidden" name="prc" value="1.99"> Price: £1.99</p> <p class="desc"> Select Quantity: <select name="amount" onchange="quantity()"> <option value="1">1</option> <option value="2">2</option> <option value="3">3</option> <option value="4">4</option> <option value="5">5</option> </select></p> <p class="submit"> <input type="button" onclick="readInput();" value="Add To Cart" /> </p> </form> <table border="1px solid black" rules="ALL" frame="void" class="cart" width="100%"> <tr> <th> <p class="cart">Product:</p> </th> <th> <p class="cart">QTY:</p> </th> <th> <p class="cart">Total:</p> </th> </tr> <tr> <td class="test"> <div id="product"> <p class="cart">Product:</p> </div> </td> <td> <div id="qty"> <p class="cart">QTY:</p> </div> </td> <td> <div id="total"> <p class="cart">Total:</p> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Building a javascript shopping cart for an assignment. First time using Javascript so ignore the ****ness of it please Anyway basically I need to replace the qty of an item in an array if the item has already been added to the array. if it hasn't then it adds the normal values to the array. So I assume atm that I have to run an if statement when the function Code: function readInput(prd, qty, prc){ is called that checks in the array before pushing the new values into the array if array contains product name then var id = productarrayID+1 then replace that with the new quantity read in by the form. Quantity in my array is after the product name so I assume productarrayID+1 would give me the qty id variable. So heres the steps, be they correct: 1) get product name from HTML. 2) check if array contains product name. 3) continue with adding to array if product name doesn't exist in array. 4) if array contains product name retrieve id of product name within array. 5) + 1 to the ID to the product name thus giving me the ID for the quantity. 6) run some array.replace with the new id and replace with the quantity. Just wondering if thats a year or no to how that would run. Il post my HTML code but please dont post solutions I would prefer to write the code myself but just checking if the step-by-step process would work thankyou.
