JavaScript - Help With \n In Return Statment
I want the output to be this way
Student: Doe, John eMail: jd@email.com Course ID: COIN-O70A.01 ----------------------- Can any one pls help me with the display. If I use alert instead of return then I works. But I need to display it in the document. Code: <html> <head> <title>Variable - Examples 1</title> <script type="text/javascript"> function Student(firstName, lastName, email,courseID){ this.firstName = firstName; this.lastName = lastName; this.email = email; this.courseID = courseID; } Student.prototype = { constructor : Student, toString : studentInfo }; function studentInfo(){ return this.firstName + "," + this.lastName + '\n'+ this.email + '\n' + this.courseID; } var student = new Student("Doe", "John", "Doeohn@gmail.com","COIN 70A.01"); </script> </head> <body> <script type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(student.toString()); </script> </body> </html> 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!

This code is not working correctly when you type get_data it should only work if you already have typed load_hacker. But get_data works withought load_hacker.
Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function command(){ if(command.value = "load_hacker" && level.value == 1){ document.getElementById("command").value = ""; document.getElementById("number").value = ""; plus(); } else { document.getElementById("command").value = "..."; document.getElementById("number").value = "..."; } if(command.value = "get_data" && level.value == 2){ document.getElementById("command").value = ""; document.getElementById("number").value = ""; plus(); } else { document.getElementById("number").value = "..."; document.getElementById("command").value = "..."; } } </script> <script type="text/javascript"> function plus(){ document.getElementById("level").value ++; } </script> ><input type="text" value="" id="command" size="" style="background-color:transparent;border:0px solid white;" /> #<input type="text" value="" id="number" size="10" style="background-color:transparent;border:0px solid white;" /> <input type="button" value="Enter" onclick="command()" /> <input type="hidden" value= 1 id="level" /> was wondering if it made sense to optimize the comparison order inside an if() statement if one of the comparison targets is a function call eg: Code: var a = true, b = function() {return false;}; if (b() || a) {...} if (a || b()) {...} would the second statement run faster because it would theoretically never need to call b() in this situation? can the eval order be relied on? does this depend on the js engine/internal optimizations? thanks, Leon Could you make a if statment for adding points to Fel,Dom or Blob. <script type="text/javascript"> Blob = 500 Fel = 300 Dom = 400 if (Fel == Dom && Dom == Blob) { document.write("<b>It was a tie!</b>") } else if (Blob == Dom || Dom == Blob) { document.write("<b>Dom and Blob!</b>"); } else if (Fel == Dom || Dom == Fel) { document.write("<b>Dom and Fel!</b>"); } else if (Blob == Fel || Fel == Blob) { document.write("<b>Blob and Fel!</b>"); } if (Fel > Blob || Fel > Dom ) { document.write("<b>Fel!</b>"); } else if (Dom > Fel || Dom > Blob) { document.write("<b>Dom!</b>"); } else if (Blob > Dom || Blob > Fel) { document.write("<b>Blob!</b>"); } </script> 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() ?

I'm using ajax to grab a response from a PHP page, on success, the ajax sets a variable. After the line that calls the ajax function is the line the returns the variable (a global variable). Problem is, because the variable is returned right after the ajax function is fired, it doesn't give the ajax enough time to set the variable. The work around I've thought about would be using the ajax function as a variable, and returning that variable in the initial return line. Could anyone either help me with a better solution, or tell me what I'm doing wrong? Here's some code for reference: The function that will return the response I'm trying to collect: Code: function lt_ajaxGet(hash) { var params = "hash=" + escape(encodeURI(hash)); makePOSTRequest('hash.php?get', params); return ajax_response; } The ajax code: Code: if(http_request.status == 200){ ajax_response = http_request.responseText; } Hi all, I have a page built with asp.net that includes some "imagebutton"s within a form. These render as input tags with the type set to image. I ahve the onclick attribute set to run a custom javascript function and return false, so in the fully rendered page I get something like the following: Code: <input type="image" name="ctl00${cut}" tabindex="-1" title="Click to look up the details" src="images/load_details.png" onclick="LoadDetails(); return false;" style="border-width:0px;" /> This has worked fine for the few months the code has been in place and then just recently (within the last few days) it has stopped working for a single network user. They click on the link and instead of the function executing (and the AJAX loading details into the page) the form submits. This makes me think that the "return false" simply isn't executing. The user says that they haven't changed any settings or anything that may cause this issue... The browser being used throughout the company is IE8 under Windows XP. I have checked the version being used on their comptuer and it is 8.0.6001.18702, which is the same version as the one installed on my local machine... which is working fine. Another user has logged into the computer being used by the user with the issues and it works fine for the second user. Also, the user having the issues has logged into a different computer on the network and was still having the same problems. I think I've included all the details, but I'll happily provide any required information. Anyone have any ideas? I'm troubleshooting some issues with menus closing and when I alert the return value from something like: Code: timer = setTimeout("closeMenu(id)",500); I get 2,3,4. It seems to increment. Does that just represent how many times the timeout code has been executed? |
