JavaScript - Strict Javascript Validation For Beginner
Hi, I am fairly new at Javascript but have some ability - though I can't figure this one out.
I need a JavaScipt "IF Statement" that validates that a Text Field is in the format of 2 Letters then 2 Numbers. The field also has to contain a total of 4 characters no matter what. For example, every entry for that Text Field has to be in the following format: AB34 I would sincerely appreciate anyones help! Similar TutorialsI've just discovered (through trial and error) that if a variable is assigned a value without first being declared, it automatically has global scope, even if it is assigned inside a function. This is a pain in the butt because if you forget the var keyword, then suddenly ... whoops! You've got yourself a global variable! Is there any way that I can make javascript throw an exception if I fail to declare a variable before assigning a value to it? It would make things much easier, rather than having to hunt through increasingly complex functions to find that pesky unintentionally global variable. Hi people I'm hoping someone can help me. I have NO knowledge of Javascript but I'm not afraid of code and happy to look at it and work out what is doing what. I need someone to provide me with a small sample of code to get me started on this task. I need a webpage with a number of drop down menus. Depending on what the user selects in these menus, depends on what sentence or paragraph is then displayed in a box. For example you might have a page dedicated to food. So the user would select egg in the first drop down and the box will change to display "you can't make much with that on it's own".# You'll then select flower in the second and it'll adjust to a paragraph maybe explaining where you could go next with that. In my page I need 6 drop down menus with about 8 choices in each menu (nothing related to food). Not sure if I would need to tie this in with a database or if I could just make do with the code on the page. As I said I'm hoping someone can just kick me off with something do I can get a rough idea of how I would go about coding it. Maybe an example contain 3 drop down menus with 2 choices on each and a few possible sentences or paragraphs that it could generate in a box. If not then any advice would be really appreciated as I said I'm a complete newbie and I've never even looked at Javascript code to my knowledge. Many thanks Hi every one I'm a beginner to java so I have a home work assignment and I'm suppose to create a soda machine thing. What I'm trying to do is make the price of soda * quantity of soda which will equal to the price with tax but I cant figure it out @_@. I know what I'm doing wrong with the "Total" button and the "value" and "quantity" and I've been looking over the internet and playing with it like crazy. So if anyone can help me figure this out that would be great. The code and a pic is on the bottom i hope i gave you guys enough info. This is what im trying to do. is this code right its supposed to be a code that prompts the user for a number less than 100 and outputs only odd numbers less than or equal to the number entered by the user.for example if a user eneters the number 10 you should display 1,3,5,7,9 to the browser window?...im not sure if i have done it right..i gave it a go though! var input = prompt("Enter a number less than 100:", "10"); if( input <= 100){ nbsp; for (var i = 1, i <= input, i++2){ nbsp; document.write(i", "); nbsp; } }else{ nbsp; alert(input + " is not less than 100!"); } I dont know the first thing about java script but I also didnt know the first thing about html and css but someone showed me a few basic things to gt started and Ive excelled in both using dreamweaver. I just needed the basics and then I was able to work through it. Just like that I need help starting out with Java Script. Basically, Ive made a website and now I am trying to put in a slider(it is a photo slider which has a box drop down on the right with a description when it changes photos.) I was told to make a slider.css file in the css folder and a slider.js file in the java script folder. I coded everything correctly in the source code page to get the slider up and running. But it wont work. Am I supposed to have a Java script program downloaded or something? Please help if you know what Im talking about Ive hit a road block and if you can walk me through this process I would really appreciate it and I can continue with my project. Thanks I have to design a javascript program to capture five different numbers (monetary values), and save it in memory. Then another one that converts that value to, let's say, Euros, and display interest and commisions (which are values I'll have to add later, but the actual coding for the calculation is what's confusing to me. Let's just say, take 10% out of the initial value for interest, and 15% for commission). I would appreciate any help
Hello, I very new to this language and I still feel like I'm not grasping it... But, anyways, I'm doing a thing for school and I have to let the user input a string. I need to save the string and turn it into an array. For every word that is less than five letters I put "little" at the beginning of the word and for every word that is more than five letters I put "big" at the end of each word. Then I need to return the new string into output. I think I wrote the code really incorrectly, so any tips/advice would be much appreciated! Also, I don't understand adding user input into a code if that makes sense. The tutorials/lessons I've been looking at all say to put information into an array first and then mess with it. But, what if you don't have information in the array until the user puts it in? And once they enter it, then you mess with what they entered. I can't seem to get how to do that. Thank you for your time Code: function texter(newText){ var oldHTML = document.getElementById('outputPrompt').innerHTML; document.getElementById('outputPrompt').innerHTML = newText+"<br />"+oldHTML; console.log(newText); } function menuTwo(){ var userInput = document.getElementById('input').value; var correctedInputArray = userInput.toLowerCase().split(" "); var mainTwo = new Array([""]); for(var i=0; i<correctedInputArray.length; i++){ var thisWord = correctedInputArray[i]; var lessFive = 5; var moreFive = 6; var restOfWord; if(lessFive<5){ mainTwo[i]=thisWord+"-little"; }else if(moreFive>6){ mainTwo[i]="big-"+thisWord; } else{ restOfWord = thisWord.substr(1, thisWord.length-1); } } output = mainTwo.join(" "); texter(output); } </script> </head> <body> <h1>Document</h1> <input type='text' id='input' /> <input type='button' onclick='menuTwo()' value='submit'/> <p id='outputPrompt'>Please enter 1,2,3 or exit only</b> </p> </body> </html> What I'm trying to test out and learn is the process of a form using the get methode to print out the entered number to another test.htm page 1st code is the form Code: <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> </head> <body> <form action="test.htm" method="get"> <font size="1" face="tunga">Enter a number</font> <input type="text" name="number" size="2"> <input type="submit" value="Submit"> </form> </body> </html> the 2nd code is the test.htm page I was hoping the value of var = number would document.write to this page. I was hoping I could do this without using ASP of php. I can see in the URL after the second page loads that the var number dos = the numbered entered but I can not get it to display. Code: <html> <head> </head> <body> <script type="text/javascript"> document.write("The number you entered is " + number); </script> </body> </html> as you can see im a beginner and im trying to learn this. I hope its not a stupid question Thanks John I want to learn javascript and I found codecademy.com which seems like a great way to learn the language. Before the first lesson it says Quote: You should be comfortable with loops, if statements, functions, and objects before attempting this course. Can someone explain what these are or point me in the direction where I can find the answers? I tried searching with google, but I havent found anything that clearly states what exactly the loop, object, etc. is. Hi, I am working on a simple javascript craps game program. I need some advice since it won't display who the winner is, keep tally of who wins/loses, and the number of total games played.

First you toss the pair of dice. If the sum of the dice is 7 or 11, you win the game. If the sum is 2, 3, or 12, the house wins. Otherwise, the sum is designated as the "point," to be matched by another toss. So if neither player has won on the first toss, then the dice are tossed repeatedly until either the point or a 7 comes up. If a 7 comes up first, the house wins. Otherwise, you win when the point comes up. </body> </html> 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, validation for pin must not be allow given below conditions 6 rising consecutive numbers(e.g 123456,456789 etc) 6 Descending consecutive numbers (eg. 654321,987654) All same digit (eg 111111,222222) Same digit appearing 3 or more time in pin code (eg:121212,1111432) I have a validation issue. I need the input fields to highlight yellow if no text has been entered and when the form is submitted the error message displays to check the highlighted fields. I get the input boxes to highlight when there is no text but on submit the form goes to the next page without the error alert message. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I am trying to do some sim[ple form validation using javascript. I have a simple html file 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>Send Card</title> <script language="JavaScript" src="gen_validatorv31.js" type="text/javascript"></script> </head> <body> <form action="getName.php" onsubmit="return validate_form(this);"> Receiver (To): <input type="text" name="name"><br> Sender (From): <input type="text" name="sender"><br> Email: <input type="text" name="email"><br> <input type="submit" value="Submit"> </form> </body> </html> Which calls up my javascript and php file (The php file should only be used when the javascript has found no errors). Now I have a js file which does some validation Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function validate_required(field,alerttxt) { with (field) { if (value==null||value=="") { alert(alerttxt); return false; } else { return true; } } } function validate_email(field,alerttxt) { with (field) { apos=value.indexOf("@") dotpos=value.lastIndexOf(".") if (apos<1||dotpos-apos<2) { alert(alerttxt); return false; } else { return true; } } } function validate_form(thisform) { with (thisform) { if (validate_required(name,"Please specify your name!")==false) { name.focus(); return false; } if (validate_required(sender,"Please specify the receivers name!")==false) { sender.focus(); return false; } if (validate_required(email,"Email must be filled out!")==false) { email.focus(); return false; } if (validate_email(email,"Not a valid e-mail address!")==false) { email.focus(); return false; } } } </script> When I run it on my server, I get the form and enter nothing into it, I just click submit. However, it goes straight to the php file and brings up my flash movie, which it shouldnt do. When nothing is entered, the js file should return the error. I thought I had everything set up correctly, but obviously not. Can someone see where I am going wrong? cheers Hello Every1 I need to edit the below form to use JavaScript to Validate if thr Title was put or Not .. its a template i use at my site to add comment and i want the Title to be Requier .Javascript seems the easiest way for me but dont know how.

I have never done javascript, so with my limited understanding from Google, I put together code snippets. Problems: 1. How can I get one message box when the user presses submit indicating all failed validation at one time 2. The expired credit card validation doesnt work 3. Cant seem to find a good "confirm password" script 3. The form does not submit if all the fields are correct. <script language="javascript"> <!-- function checkAge() { var bday=parseInt(document.forms[0].txtBday.value); var bmo=(parseInt(document.forms[0].txtBmo.value)-1); var byr=parseInt(document.forms[0].txtByr.value); var byr; var age; var now = new Date(); tday=now.getDate(); tmo=(now.getMonth()); tyr=(now.getFullYear()); { if((tmo > bmo)||(tmo==bmo & tday>=bday)) { age=(tyr-byr) } else { age=(tyr-(byr+1)) } if (age<18) { alert ("you must be over 18 years"); return false; } else { return true; } } } //--> function checkEmail() { var x=document.getElementById("email").value; var atpos=x.indexOf("@"); var dotpos=x.lastIndexOf("."); if (atpos<1 || dotpos<atpos+2 || dotpos+2>=x.length) { alert("Not a valid e-mail address"); return false; } { return true; } } function onlyNumbers(evt) { var e = event || evt; // for trans-browser compatibility var charCode = e.which || e.keyCode; if (charCode > 31 && (charCode < 48 || charCode > 57)) return false; { return true; } } function checkCardNumber() { var x = document.getElementById("cardNumber").value; if (x.length<16) { alert("Your Credit Card Number must be 16 digits"); return false; } { return true; } } function checkSecurityCode() { var y = document.getElementById("securityCode").value; if (y.length<3) { alert("Your Security number must be three digits"); return false; } { return true; } } function ValidateExpDate() { var ccExpYear = 20 + $F('<%= expYear.ClientID%>'); var ccExpMonth = $F('<%= expMonth.ClientID%>'); var expDate=new Date(); expDate.setFullYear(ccExpYear, ccExpMonth, 1); var today = new Date(); if (expDate<today) { alert("card expired"); // Credit Card is expire return false; } else { // Credit is valid return true; } } function runall() { checkAge(); checkEmail(); checkCardNumber(); checkSecurityCode(); { return false;} } </script> I have problem with my javascript form validation... Validation works only on last question and I can't understand why it doesn't work on other questions..
