JavaScript - Distribute Numbers Into A Form

Full Excel VBA Course - Beginner to Expert

Distribute Numbers Into A Form	View Content

The solution for my problem below is to place the distribute button inside the form. Now the code seems to work just fine.

----------------

I have a code here that used to distribute a list of numbers into the appropriate boxes in a form. Now, it is not working and I am not sure why. I recently moved some HTML code around, but I can't imagine that I changed anything major.

Pasting a set of numbers, 1, 2, 3, 4, each separated by a carriage return, should put them into the first four form boxes. Each consecutive box in the form, where the values will be placed, is labeled output0, output1, output2 and so on.

This is the javascript, which is in the <head> section of the page:

Code:

<!--
window.onload = function(){
  var myButton = document.getElementById('foo');
  var myForm = document.getElementById('ratings');
  myButton.onclick = function(evt){
    // 'myForm' is the form element itself
    var ssInput = myForm.elements.ssPastebox;
    var newrating = ssInput.value.split("\n");
    for (var i=0,len=newrating.length;i<len;++i){
      var output = myForm.elements["output"+i];
      if (output) output.value = newrating[i];
    }
    return false;
  };
}
// -->

The relevant HTML code is he

Code:

<p class="descript">
<button id="foo">Distribute Ratings</button>
<input type="reset" value="Reset Form">
<input type="button" value="Clear All Fields" onclick="javascript:clearForms()"></p>
</p><br />

<p class="descript">-------------------</p><br />

<form name="rate_form" id="ratings" method="post" action="ratescan.php">

<table class="rate">
<tr>
<td class="rate_imbed">
<table class="rate_imbed">
    <tr>
        <td class="ratedept"><b>HEADER</b>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td class="ratedeptshade"><a href="dept.php">Department: </a></td>
        <td class="ratenumshade" style="bgcolor: gray"><input class="rate" type="text" name="output0"  value=""></td>
    </tr>

Any insight at all would be appreciated. Even a simpler way to distribute the values would be helpful. Thanks.

Adding Numbers That Have Been Entered In A Form

Similar Tutorials

I have the following code that I wrote myself (except for the function isNumberKey). However, I don't know how to actually add the numbers together. My plan is to store the value entered in the forms as a variable, then manipulate the variables to get my final number. The final number would be stored in variable named Total and would be displayed after Total: at the bottom of my page.

Could anyone help me? I can provide additional information if you need it.

Code:

   
<HTML>
<TITLE>Magazine Prices </TITLE>
   <BODY>
   <SCRIPT language=Javascript>
      <!--

	   Price = oForm.elements["price"].value;
	Quantity = oForm.elements["quantity"].value;
	Subtotal = oForm.elements["subtotal"].value;
	Shipping = oForm.elements["shipping"].value;


      function isNumberKey(evt)
      {
         var charCode = (evt.which) ? evt.which : event.keyCode
         if (charCode > 31 && (charCode < 48 || charCode > 57))
            return false;

         return true;
}
      //-->
   </SCRIPT>

<!-- Price * Quantity = Subtotal. Subtotal value should fill in automatically in the Subtotal input field.  Subtotal * Shipping = Total. //-->


<TABLE>

<TR><TD>Price: </TD><TD><INPUT id="Price" name="Price" onkeypress="return isNumberKey(event)" type="text" name="txtChar"> </TD></TR>

<TR><TD>Quantity:</TD> <TD><INPUT id="Quantity" name="Quantity" onkeypress="return isNumberKey(event)" type="text" name="txtChar"> </TD></TR>

Check If Textfield Has Numbers Then Submit Form

Similar Tutorials

Hi
I have a problem but im not sure if it could be solved by Javascript or PHP but either is good.

I have a form with a text box where users can enter a 10 digit code. The 10 digit code can be just numbers/letters (eg. 0123456789 or abcdefghij) or it can be a mixture (eg. 0a1b2c3d4e).

What I would like is if the user enters a code which is a mixture of numbers and letters then the submit url goes to mixed.php
If the user enters a code which just has letters or numbers then the submit url goes to sole.php

Anybody can help me? I know its possible to change the url from selecting radio buttons so I hope this can be achievable.

I hope that makes sense...let me know if you need more info.

Thanks guys!

Js Adding Numbers

Hi,

Want to add numbers using JS. Have 4 text boxes for user entry. Want either a label (preferred) or fifth text box to automatically sum those entries. Did following but not working. Any suggestions?

<script language="javascript">
var addRange = function()
{
var NoHrsRangeComp = document.getElementById("NoHrsRangeComp");
var NoHrsRangeCred = document.getElementById("NoHrsRangeCred");
var NoHrsRangeOT = document.getElementById("NoHrsRangeOT");
var NoHrsRangeRC = document.getElementById("NoHrsRangeRC");
var RangeSum = document.getElementById("RangeSum");
var sum = 0;

if (isNaN(parseFloat(NoHrsRangeComp.value))){
NoHrsRangeComp.value = ""; }
if (isNaN(parseFloat(NoHrsRangeCred.value))){
NoHrsRangeCred.value = ""; }
if (isNaN(parseFloat(NoHrsRangeOT.value))){
NoHrsRangeOT.value = ""; }
if (isNaN(parseFloat(NoHrsRangeRC.value))){
NoHrsRangeRC.value = ""; }

sum = parseFloat(NoHrsRangeComp.value) + parseFloat(NoHrsRangeCred.value) + parseFloat(NoHrsRangeOT.value)
+ parseFloat(NoHrsRangeRC.value);
RangeSum.innerHTML = sum;
}
</script>

Input as follows:

<input style="width: 50px" type="text" name="NoHrsRangeComp" id="NoHrsRangeComp" onblur="addRange();"/>

<input style="width: 50px" type="text" name="NoHrsRangeCred" id="NoHrsRangeCred" onblur="addRange();"/>

<input style="width: 50px" type="text" name="NoHrsRangeOT" id="NoHrsRangeOT" onblur="addRange();"/>

<input style="width: 50px" type="text" name="NoHrsRangeRC" id="NoHrsRangeRC" onblur="addRange();"/>

<input style="width: 50px" type="text" name="RangeSum" id="RangeSum" onblur="addRange();"/>

For above entry prefer - label makes it look more like usual addition and does not confuse users to want to make entry.

<label id="RangeSum" onblur="addRange();" style="border-bottom:medium"></label>

Sequence Of Numbers

Similar Tutorials

This textbook is complete garbage, there is nothing in this thing about this topic at all. Here is the question I am trying to do: "Suppose you have a sequence of numbers
Where every number is the previous number plus 3
1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22
Write a program to output the first 10 number s of the sequence. You must calculate the numbers, you cannot just hard-code them into an array."

Its a question on a test study guide.

Heres what I got so far: Code:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
VarX = 1
i = 3
VarY = VarX + i
count++
do
varY 
while count < 10

What I want to do is add more word lists. This of course is easy in principle - I can just continue the lists like:

form.title9.value = "";
form.title10.value = "";
form.title11.value = "";

- and so on. The problem is that, in the "sentence patterns", I cannot use numbers with two digits to refer to the word lists. Then it thinks I mean 1+0 and 1+1 instead of 10 and 11. How can I allow this? I have heard about using regular expressions to "capture the number by its word boundary" - is this a good solution? If yes, can someone please explain to me how to do it? (I have tried special characters like @,#,$ and more as well as Russian and Greek letters. This makes the script unable to generate poems.)

Thank you.

Convert the string values which are concatenated by + (e.g. "2" + "5" = 25) into numbers (e.g. 2+5 = 7) by using the Number() method, or another way is to multiply the value by 1.

But you are using string values
if (chr == '1') {
quite unnecessarily.
Remove the quote marks to make them into numbers.
"1" is a string value. 1 is a number

Obviously chr = pattern.charAt(ichr); only captures a single numeric chararcter.
You can extract two-digit numbers from a string just by removing all non-digits
var x = str.replace(/[^0-9]/g,""); // strip all characters but digits
That of course assumes that there is only one number in the string.

Changing Numbers In Forms

Not sure if I should post this in javascript or HTML section, but I have what seems to be a pretty simple script that I'm stumped on.

Basically what I have to do is use onChange to make the second box equal 3 times the first and the third equal the cube of the first.

Here's what I have so far, it doesn't do anything:

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>

<script type="text/javascript"> 
  
function recalcTextBoxes() {  
   // Make sure both boxes have a value  
   if   (TextBox1.value != "" ) {  
        // if both boxes have a value calculate for box 3  
         TextBox2.value = TextBox1.value*3 ;
		 TextBox3.value = TextBox1.value*TextBox1.value*TextBox1.value;
   }  
}  
function recalcTextBoxes2() {
	if (TextBox2.value!=""){
		TextBox1.value= Textbox2.value/3;
		TextBox3.value=TextBox1.value*TextBox1.value*TextBox1.value;
	}
}
function recalcTextBoxes3(){
	if (TextBox3.value!=""){
		TextBox1.value= Math.pow(TextBox3.value, 1/3);
		TextBox2.value= Textbox1.value *3;
	}
}
</script>  

</head>

<body>
<FORM ACTION="../cgi-bin/mycgi.pl">

First
<input 
         type=TEXT 
         name="TextBox1" 
         
         onChange="recalcTextBoxes()" 
		 >

  Second
      <INPUT 
         TYPE=TEXT 
         NAME="TextBox2"
		 onChange = "recalcTextBoxes2()"
		 
         >

Third
<INPUT 
         TYPE=TEXT 
         NAME="TextBox3" 
		 onChange = "recalcTextBoxes3()"
         >
  
</FORM>
</body>
</html>

Anybody have any hints on what I should do next? I'm really new with javascript and HTML so I don't really know what I'm doing.

Testing Textfield For Numbers

Similar Tutorials

Hi,

The following code tests the 'numbers' field for numbers. It generates an alert if the field contains anything but numbers.

Code:

<script type='text/javascript'>
function isNumeric(elem, helperMsg){
	var numericExpression = /^[0-9]+$/;
	if(elem.value.match(numericExpression)){
		return true;
	}else{
		alert(helperMsg);
		elem.focus();
		return false;
	}
}
</script>
<form>
Numbers Only: <input type='text' id='numbers'/>
<input type='button' 
	onclick="isNumeric(document.getElementById('numbers'), 'Numbers Only Please')"
	value='Check Field' />
</form>

However, if I want to change the above statement to read if the textfield does not equal to a number, return true, else, alert the user and return false. I change the branch statement and have it read "if(!(elem.value.match(numericExpression)))," to try to do this. But, the alert message does not generate if I enter "abc123" even though that value clearly contains numbers.

Not sure what is going here. Please help me. Thank you.
