JavaScript - Javascript - New Array Via Prompt
I am new to learning JS and am trying to create an array through a prompt. It seems to work, but I believe it is treating the prompted numbers as strings not numbers. I am parsing the negatives and zeros, and positives and counting them. It doesn't recognize the negative sign.
Here's my js: function counter() { var numArr = new Array(Number(prompt("Please enter and array of numbers, in any order, separated by a comma..." + '\n' + "In the following format: -2,0,2"))); var positives = 0; var negatives = 0; var zeros = 0; for (var i = 0; i < numArr.length; i++) { switch (true) { case numArr[i] < 0: negatives++; break; case numArr[i] == 0: zeros++; break; case numArr[i] > 0: positives++; break; } } alert("You entered:"+ '\n' + "Number of Negatives: " + negatives + '\n' + "Number of Zeros: " + zeros + '\n' + "Number of Positives: " + positives); } counter(); Any suggestions?

I should warn, i know almost nothing about javascript. . i've been trying read sample scripts and examples on how to modify this script; but I just don't know enough. I have a script that pulls data from an array, and copies it directly to the clipboard when a user clicks on it. The problem is this only works in IE, because Firefox doesn't by default allow that to happen. I'm trying to change it so that when it is clicked, instead, it takes what was going to be copied to the clipboard, and puts it in a Prompt box for the user to copy and paste. I had other scripts that do that, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to learn from it! This is the function in the current script Code: <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- function selectThis(src) { document.selection.clear; txt = eval(src +".innerText"); theObj = document.all(txt); txtRange = document.body.createTextRange(); txtRange.moveToElementText(eval(src)); txtRange.select(); txtRange.execCommand("RemoveFormat"); txtRange.execCommand("Copy"); alert(txt + " '.$caption[ 'paste' ].'"); } --> </script> '; } and this is the onclick code Code: '; foreach ( $ausgabe as $key => $data) { if ( $key == '' ) continue; if ( ( $_GET[ 'group' ] != '*' ) && ( $this->info[ $key ][ 'xx_data' ] != $_GET[ 'group' ] ) ) continue; $tpack = $this->info[ $key ][ 'pack' ]; $tname = $this->info[ $key ][ 'xx_desc' ]; $jsid= $nick2.'_'.$tpack; if ( isset( $this->info[ $key ][ 'xx_lock' ] ) ) { if ( $this->hide_locked > 0 ) continue; $tname .= ' (gesperrt)'; } $tname = htmlspecialchars( $tname); if ( $javascript > 0 ) { $tname = '<span class="selectable" onclick="javascript:selectThis(\''. $jsid.'\');">'. $tname."</span>\n". '<span id="'.$jsid.'" class="hidden">'. '/msg '.$this->nick.' xdcc send '.$tpack."</span>\n"; } if ( isset( $this->info[ $key ][ 'xx_note' ] ) ) $tname .= '<br>'.$this->info[ $key ][ 'xx_note' ]; $label = "Download mit:\n/msg ".$this->nick.' xdcc send '.$tpack."\n"; if ( isset( $this->info[ $key ][ 'xx_md5' ] ) ) $label .= " \nmd5: ".$this->info[ $key ][ 'xx_md5' ]; if ( isset( $this->info[ $key ][ 'xx_crc' ] ) ) $label .= " \ncrc32: ".$this->info[ $key ][ 'xx_crc' ]; echo ' <tr> <td class="right">#'.$tpack.'</td> <td class="right">'.$this->info[ $key ][ 'xx_gets' ].'</td> <td class="right">'.makesize($this->info[ $key ][ 'size' ]).'</td> <td class="content" title="'.$label.'">'.$tname.'</td> </tr> '; I've spent days at trying to customize it.. but.. i'm not a programmer I was able to get it to open a prompt box, and had it populate with ("copy this code", $variable), but cannot figure out how to have it display the proper values that was clicked on. I have no idea though what is considered efficient either in the code. I hope this isn't considered asking for TOO much help....

I was able to create the php multidimensional array (tested and working) from a MySql database using the users information at login, but I'm having problems converting it to a javascript multidimensional array. I need to be able to access variables that I can pass to a number of text fields within an html form. For instance, if a user belongs to a company with multiple addresses, I need to be able to let them select the address they need to prepopulate specific text fields. php array creation: Code: if ($row_locations) { while ($row_locations = mysql_fetch_assoc($locations)) { $mail[$row_locations['comp_id']]=array('mailto'=>$row_locations['mailto'], 'madd'=>$row_locations['madd'], 'madd2'=>$row_locations['madd2'], 'mcity'=>$row_locations['mcity'], 'mstate'=>$row_locations['mstate'], 'mzip'=>$row_locations['mzip'], 'billto'=>$row_locations['billto'], 'badd'=>$row_locations['badd'], 'badd2'=>$row_locations['badd2'], 'bcity'=>$row_locations['bcity'], 'bstate'=>$row_locations['bstate'], 'bzip'=>$row_locations['bzip']); } } javascript function - this should create the array and send variables to text fields. Code: function updateAddress() { var mail = $.parseJSON(<?php print json_encode(json_encode($mail)); ?>); { if (comp_id in mail) { document.getElementById('mailto').value=mail.comp_id.mailto.value; document.getElementById('madd').value=mail.comp_id.madd.value; document.getElementById('madd2').value=mail.comp_id.madd2.value; document.getElementById('mcity').value=mail.comp_id.mcity.value; document.getElementById('mstate').value=mail.comp_id.mstate.value; document.getElementById('mzip').value=mail.comp_id.mzip.value; } else { document.getElementById('mailto').value=''; document.getElementById('madd').value=''; document.getElementById('madd2').value=''; document.getElementById('mcity').value=''; document.getElementById('mstate').value=''; document.getElementById('mzip').value=''; } } } Where is this breaking?

Hi, In a nutshell,can anyone tell me how to copy a 2d (two dimensional ,2 dimensional) php array to 2d javascript array?I would be obliged if anyone can provide me a method of doing that OR I have written a code to copy a 2d php array to a 2d javascript array.It is working but there is one problem(please see the following).Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here? The 2d php array is $quest[100][6] and the 2d javascript array is questions[100][6] . I have written the javascript code inside the <?php....?> itself using echo "<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">.......</script>; Now ,inside the javascript,when I try to copy the 2d php array to the 2d javascript array using the following method it works questions[0]= ["<?php echo join("\", \"", $quest[0]); ?>"]; questions[1]= ["<?php echo join("\", \"", $quest[1]); ?>"]; ... and so on However, if I try to do the same using the following method it does not work for (var i= 0; i <= 99; i++) { questions[i]= ["<?php echo join("\", \"", $quest[i]); ?>"]; } Why is that?What mistake am I making?Any help will be deeply appreciated.Thanks -----------------------------THE CODE------------------------------------ <?php Access database and store result of mysq_query in $result....... $result = mysql_query($query); for ( $count = 0; $count <= 99; $count++) { $quest[$count]=mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_NUM);; } echo "<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> var questions = new Array(100); for (var i = 0; i <100; i++) { questions[i] = new Array(6); } /*The following method of copying 2d php array to 2d javascript array is not working for ( var i = 0; i <= 99; i++) { questions[i]= ["<?php echo join("\", \"", $quest[i]); ?>"]; } */ /*The following method ,however,is working*/ questions[0]= ["<?php echo join("\", \"", $quest[0]); ?>"]; questions[1] = ["<?php echo join("\", \"",$quest[1]); ?>"]; questions[2] = ["<?php echo join("\", \"",$quest[2]); ?>"]; ....and so on </script>"; mysql_close($db_server); ?> Hi, Here is a working code to copy 2d php array to 2d javascript array.

In my mind this should prompt me for a data input as many times as their are inputs, however, it works only for the first data input, then it returns to blank page without prompts for the second input... Any clues as to where I'm going wrong? Code: <script> var name = prompt('What\'s your name?'); function myOnLoad() { document.getElementsByTagName('name').innerHTML = name; } </script> <body onLoad="myOnLoad()"> This person's name is <name></name>.<br> <name></name> is someone who has just passed thorought this page.<br> Say bye to <name></name>! How come this code doesn't work? After searching this site I could not find any old posts on how to position the PROMPT box. As default (as you all most likely know) the prompt box in IE browser comes up in the top left corner. not very visable and would like to center it so it would be more visiable to the user being prompted. Can someone help me with this? thanks John I'm working on an html form that will be launched from within another application, but every time it launches the form none of the JS coding works because of the stupid IE security. If I launch the form from outside the application I just have to select "allow blocked content" from that stupid information bar that says "to help protect your security IE has restricted the webpage from running scripts...." I added the application site to our trusted sites and basically turned off security for that zone but it still doesn't work. Obviously there is a way to run JS without allowing the content, but I don't do enough coding to know how that is done. Can someone help me out please? I need the JS to run automatically without that information bar appearing at all. When you do an alert confirm you can make if statements to say if they click ok do this and if they click cancel stop the program. Well I am trying to make a prompt that first asks the user to enter in a url and after they do and click enter they url is wraped with img tags. I would like to make it so that if the user clicks cancel the program ends b/c right now if the user click okay with no value the result is [img][/img] and if the user clicks cancel the result is [img]null[/img].
