JavaScript - Easy Array Question
I know it's possible to do this in php, but what would the javascript equivalent be?
Code: var scripts = new Array(); scripts[] = "PHP"; scripts[] = "ASP"; scripts[] = "JavaScript"; scripts[] = "HTML"; But this obviously doesn't work. And just to clarify, I mean the ability to add an array whenever I want to in my page instead of having to name the array like... Code: var scripts = new Array(); scripts[0] = "PHP"; scripts[1] = "ASP"; scripts[2] = "JavaScript"; scripts[3] = "HTML"; I'm using it for such as in a form: Code: <input type="text" name="formarray[]"> <input type="text" name="formarray[]"> Thank you in advance. Similar TutorialsShort version at bottom Need to add an array before an array to init thousands of arrays. Mostly worked out, just need to add an array before an array. ........Please check it out. Really want to finish this tonight or tomorrow. Alright, so two days later I finally have this portion working but its only because of the awesome people of this forum and unforunately these people thought I had some half decent grasp of javascript (which I don't) and so their answers were meant to solve my problem but each time I was left with no idea how to repeat what they did. So, I've learned a lot of extra stuff that I really could have done without in the effort to try and understand what they did. This is all well and good because I'm much farther than I am had I gone it alone (so thank you!) but please, anyone that posts an answer, could you try and explain a bit of how I might use your solution again. For example, today I was confused for about an hour because I didn't understand how [CODE]var newArray=[], a, i=0;CODE] worked but only after staring at it long enough and not finding anything on google related to "values inputed after array initialization" did I finally realized that these were not params of a new array but just new variables. Code:
var alphabetArray =['a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m','n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x','y','z','0','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9','all1'];
var a;
var i=0;
while(a=alphabetArray[i++]){
eval('var _img_'+a+' = []');
eval('var _h_'+a+' = []');
eval('var _r_'+a+' = []');
eval('var _m_'+a+' = []');
eval('var _yt_'+a+' = []');
}
alert(_h_all1)
and its working perfectly but I somehow I need to add Code: var pageNum = ['','p2_','p3_','p4_','p5_','p6_','p7_','p8_','p9_','p10_'] need to add pageNum to every alphabetArray so... _img_a = [],_img_p2_a = [], img_p3_a = [].... _img_p10_a = [] repeated for every variable in alphabetArray. _yt_p10_all1=[] Super short version Code: var alphabetArray =[letters/numbers];
var a;
var i=0;
while(a=alphabetArray[i++]){
eval('var _img_'+a+' = []');
}
// works now I need to add 10 page prefixes before each var in alphabetArray
Code: var pageNum = ['','p2_','p3_','p4_','p5_','p6_','p7_','p8_','p9_','p10_'] need to add pageNum to every alphabetArray so... _img_a = [],_img_p2_a = [], img_p3_a = [].... _img_p10_a = [] repeated for every variable in alphabetArray. _yt_p10_all1=[] Please explain how this might be possible in a way that your dog might understand. This is javascript that turns your current url into a tinyurl. How would I go about getting this to open into a new tab instead of the same tab? Code: javascript:void(location.href='http://tinyurl.com/create.php?url='+encodeURIComponent(location.href)) I am just learning javascript. I am playing around with different html elements and document.write. I have a HTML page with elements h1, h2, h3, and h4. I want to write something (in this example "found it") next to the elements. <head> <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> var headerList = getElementsByTagNames('h1,h2,h3,h4'); if (headerList) { document.write("Found it!"); } </script> </head> <body> <h1> </h1> <h2> </h2> <h3> </h3> <h4> </h4> </body> Why doesnt this work? I am assuming my logic is flawed? I don't know much about programming but I can't figure out how this works and I want to implement it on my site. I want to copy the code from this page sdapc.com/billing/pay-online.html and implement something similar. I understand that the form uses post and then goes to form-action.php and the information is verified using the script.js, but how is the information sent anywhere. I mean, I don't see any reference to any script that compiles the data and sends it to the billing department. How do they get the info??? Thanks in advance. P.S. If anyone knows of similar scripts or methods out there of doing this I'm all ears (or eyes) This would just be temporary until full automation is developed. For now, I don't mind entering their info into PayPal myself. Hey! Sorry if this is a very remedial question, but I'm trying to make a table, of even and odd numbers organized in two columns (with as many rows as it takes to get through the sequence) and I'm having an issue with my code, obviously - haha. I'm still slightly new.. here is my code Code: document.write('<table>');
for (i=1; i < 50; i++) {
document.write("<tr>");
for (j = 0; j < 50; j++) {
if (j % 2==0) {
document.write('<td>' + j + '</td>');
}
else
{
document.write('<td>' + i + '</td>');
}
}
}
document.write("</tr>);
document.write("</table>");
Any help would be greatly appreciated! hey i just started javascript, i have a little syntax question: <HTML> <HEAD> <script type="text/javascript"> function ifPrime(input) { thesqrt = Math.sqrt(input) for(a = 2; a <= thesqrt; a++) { if(input % a == 0) return false; } return true; } function nthPrime(input) { for(i = 2; i <= input; i++) { if( ifPrime(i) ) { document.write(i); document.write("<br />"); } } } </script> </HEAD> <BODY> Enter how many primes <INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="userInput" SIZE=6> <INPUT TYPE=BUTTON VALUE="Do it" ONCLICK="value = userInput"> <br /> <br /> <script type="text/javascript"> nthPrime(value) </script> </BODY> </HTML> i would like it post 2 3 5 7 when i type in 10 and press the button. how do I do that? any other programing tips would be appreciated I'm very very new to javasctipt/html programming and have come upon a stump.Let me explain Code: <form name="for1"> <input type="radio" name="fr1"value="1" > 5 <br> <input type="radio" name="fr1"value="2" > Όσα τα pixels<br> <input type="radio" name="fr1"value="3" > Δεν υπάρχει όριο<br> </form> <input type="button" value="Εκχώρηση Απάντησης" onClick="temp=document.for1.fr1.value"> What i was hoping with this is to store the value of the selected radio in a variable.The variable is declared at the beginning (not shown here).I would appreciate greatly if i'm on the right track to please tell me how to make this work and if possible not create functions and other complicated procedures as it will take me out of my "learning curve".Thanks in advance hi guys, l am trying to learn javascript, although certain things seem to be easy to understand, l still have plenty of questions. so l was reading some articles on w3schools and l was an interesting table about operations. http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/...kesnosense.png if you check above's table you will see at the increment section as well decrement , you will see that in some cases the x and y dont have the same value, now l was just wondering, what is the difference between x=++y and x=y++ ? Hey guys, this should be a very easy fix for someone who knows Javascript (which I don't). The following code allows the class "ul.slideshow-nav li" to control the navigation of the slideshow, I want to adjust this script to allow "ul.slideshow-nav li" AND "ul.slideshow-nav2 li" to do this, possible? Code: $slideshow = {
context: false,
tabs: false,
timeout: 8000,
fx: 'scrollLeft',
slideSpeed: 900,
tabSpeed: 900,
init: function() {
this.context = $('#content-slideshow');
this.tabs = $('ul.slideshow-nav li', this.context);
this.tabs.remove();
this.startSlideshow();
},
startSlideshow: function() {
$('div.slideshow > ul', $slideshow.context).cycle({
fx: $slideshow.fx,
pager: $('ul.slideshow-nav', $slideshow.context),
pagerAnchorBuilder: $slideshow.startTabs,
befo $slideshow.Tabactive,
timeout: $slideshow.timeout,
speed: $slideshow.slideSpeed,
fastOnEvent: $slideshow.tabSpeed,
pauseOnPagerHover: true,
pause: true
});
},
startTabs: function(i, slide) {
return $slideshow.tabs.eq(i);
},
Tabactive: function(currentSlide, nextSlide) {
var activeTab = $('a[href="#' + nextSlide.id + '"]', $slideshow.context);
if(activeTab.length) {
$slideshow.tabs.removeClass('on');
activeTab.parent().addClass('on');
}
}
};
$(function() {
$slideshow.init();
});
Help me anyone I am completely stuck. If you do this I shall build a shrine in your honour. In the following code the 'for' loop gets data from the relevant tags of an XML file, then puts them into the 'txt' variable. It then moves onto the next record in the XML file and does the same thing. However, I don't want the contents of txt to be overwritten each time the code loops through each record. Instead I want it to add to txt, then loop around and add the new contents of txt to the previous contents of txt. I tried txt = txt + artist + title + year; but this didn't work. Can anyone explain how to do this? Please note the contents of the variables are strings of text not numbers. Code:
x=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("CD");
i=0;
function displayCD()
{
for (var i=0;i<x.length;i++)
{
artist=(x[i].getElementsByTagName("ARTIST")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
title=(x[i].getElementsByTagName("TITLE")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
year=(x[i].getElementsByTagName("YEAR")[0].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
txt= "Artist: " + artist + "<br />Title: " + title + "<br />Year: "+ year;
}
document.getElementById("showCD").innerHTML=txt;
}
hi guys, l am currently studying web technologies on a part time basis, and learning javascript. l got a very useful website, but still l dont understand certain things like this one: Quote: When a function has performed an assignment, it may provide a value that other functions would need, for any reason you judge necessary. When a function produces a value an makes it available to other functions, such a function is said to return a value. To define a function that returns a value, just before the closing curly bracket, type the return keyword followed by the value that the function returns. The value should be a valid and expected type. Because JavaScript is not a type-checking language, meaning it hardly checks anything you are doing, it is your responsibility to make sure that your function returns the right value. Here is a function that returns a value: function rectangleArea(length, height) { var area; area = length * height * 3.14159; return area; } Even if a function returns a value, it can still be called like any other function. If a function returns a value, its name can be assigned to a variable to give a value to, or change the value of, the variable. Here is an example: Code: <Script Language="JavaScript">
function rectangleArea(length, height)
{
var area;
area = length * height * 3.14159;
return area;
}
function displayArea()
{
var l, h, rectArea;
l = 52.05;
h = 46.55;
rectArea = rectangleArea(l, h);
document.write("The area of the is ", rectArea);
}
</Script>
<Script Language="JavaScript">
displayArea();
</Script>
what l understand from the code is, l have 2 functions, first function is a return function and has got a value, but where is this value going? l mean what's happing with it? l mean l cant see this return value in the second function, why? l ma also not understand why we need to have 2 functions, why not just 1 ?/?? can someone explain me one by one the lines maybe? thanks I need to change the source of an image but I can't seem to figure out how. I believe that I have the correct syntax, but it does not seem to be working. Maybe I am typing it in wrong or something. I try to test my javascript by typing the script: <strong>javascript:document.getElementById('img1').src='./images/image1.jpg';</strong> into the address bar. Nothing happens. I also try to test it out by putting this on the page, but once again, nothing happens. Code: <script type="text/javascript"><!--
document.getElementById('im1').src="./scripts/'.$upload_image.'";
//--></script>
This is what my HTML code looks like: Code: <img src="./images/temp_wizard_picture.gif" alt="" style="padding:4px; background:#fff; border:1px #bbb solid;" id="img1" /> Can somebody please fill me in on what I am doing wrong. Thank you. I want to create a script that reads the text in an anchor <a> tag, and if the parent node is a td tag, I want to sort the text in the <a> tag alphabetically. Im not sure if this would require an array or not... but one important point is the text being read would be something like Miami - Detroit or Buffalo - New York two team names separated by a hyphen. This is what I had, but again.. not sure if it needs an array in order to work, or if the '-' is important.. BUT i only want to sort by the First letter of the first team listed so Arizona - Oakland would be sorted above San Francisco - Atlanta Code:
function main(){
var a = document.getElementsByTagName('a');
for (i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
if(a[i].parentNode.tagName == 'Td'){
var team = a[i].innerHTML;
team.sort();
}
else{
i++;
}
}
}
Please forgive my ignorance. I am definitely more designer than programmer... Not sure if this possible, If it is then I am definitely getting the syntax wrong. I'm trying to pull array data as such: var carouselC2R1Array = new Array(500, 4, 0); var currentSilo = 2; var currentImg = 1; carouselWidth = "carouselC"+currentSilo+"R"+currentImg+"Array"[0]; carouselMaxImages = "carouselC"+currentSilo+"R"+currentImg+"Array"[1]; carouselCurrentImg = "carouselC"+currentSilo+"R"+currentImg+"Array"[2]; the correct data return should be: carouselWidth = 500 carouselMaxImages = 4 carouselCurrentImg = 0 but instead, I'm getting: carouselWidth = c carouselMaxImages = a carouselCurrentImg = r Any help would be greatly appreciated! Cheers. Is there a way to create new lines on a array. so if a array cald questions and theres two value questions [0] and questions [1] can i make a function that would create a questions [2]. So i am also wondering if i could do things with a array like sql? Edit: Wrong SPelling hi, if i have an array of "hop", "skip", "jump" "run", how do i prompt the user to enter a number between 1 and 4 to bring back one of the array list without using an if or switch statement... the code i have so far is: numbers= new Array(); numbers[0]="hop"; numbers[1]="skip"; numbers[2]="jump"; numbers[3]="run"; thanks I have a bit of code that I can't decipher, beginner that I am. Code:
(function($) {
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#tmp").attr('src', loader.loadImage('test.zip://images/image.jpg'));
});
})(jQuery)
This code loads an image from a zip file and the tmp variable is passed to the id attribute in the html img tag. It works as is, but what I want to do is pass an array element containing the image name to the function from within the tag and have the function return directly rather than using the #tmp variable. The html page I'm working with has 98 images, so calling this function from within the img tag seems the way to go rather than having 98 separate instances of the function wit 98 separate tmp variables. What I don't understand is what function($) means or why tmp has the hash in front. I had assumed the hash was some sort of pointer reference but I wasn't able to find any documentation on it. Can anyone help me out? Hey guys, I've got a question about this array in my code. I have my array at a size of 20 and all of the elements are initialized to 5. What i want to do is when the user types in the word "dog" i want to increase one of the first 10 elements in my array by 1, increasing it from 5 to 6. How would you do such a thing?
Hi Peers, I am capturing query data into different Javascript arrays and that is the only way i have for now...anyway ..i have what i want in JS arrrays > is there a war to perform CRUD operations on those arrays : my Arrays look like this : A1 : EmpID / A2 : Name / A3: Fistanme..

Thanks Ok...this is gonna sound very stupid to you guys, but I don't get one part of this code. Code: function range(upto) {
var result = [];
for (var i = 0; i <= upto; i++)
result[i] = i;
return result;
}
show(range(4));
What does result[i]=i mean? I know it adds the value of i into the array, but how? Why couldn't you just write it as result[i] or result[] = i? |
