JavaScript - Checking Array Elements
Hey guys. I need a little help with checking elements in my array. I created an array of size 50 and initialized all elements to 1. What i want to do is if the user types in the number "1" into the prompt box, i want it to check the first 15 elements and increase only one of the elements by 1, and if the element has already been increased by 1 then i want it to check the next element and see if its been increased, if the element has been increased then it needs to move on to the next one and check that. If the element is 1, then it can be increased by "1", if the element is 2 then i need it to check the next element. If all elements within the first 15 have increased by 1, it should just alert the user that all slots have been assigned. Is there a way to do this? Thanks for your time
Similar TutorialsI am using the following script on an e-commerce site to ensure that not both drop downs cannot be selected at the same time, as well as ensuring one must be selected at all times. Code: <script language="javascript"><!-- function validate(cart_quantity) { if (((cart_quantity.elements['id[2]'].value == 9999) && (cart_quantity.elements['id[3]'].value == 9999)) || ((cart_quantity.elements['id[2]'].value != 9999) && (cart_quantity.elements['id[3]'].value != 9999))) { alert('Please select only one option!'); cart_quantity.elements['id[2]'].value = 9999; cart_quantity.elements['id[3]'].value = 9999; cart_quantity.elements['id[2]'].focus(); return false; } } //--></script> The initial value of the drop down is set to 9999 off the bat. The problem with this code is that not all of my product pages have these 2 drop downs so I wanted to try and add in an if statement saying that if id2=9999 and id3 == null then pop up the error. That didnt work because I don't think it can be equal to null if it does not exist on the page. So instead I tried to do the following: Code: <script language="javascript"><!-- function validate(cart_quantity) { cart_quantity.elements['id[3]'] = 99999; if (((cart_quantity.elements['id[2]'].value == 9999) && (cart_quantity.elements['id[3]'].value == 9999)) || ((cart_quantity.elements['id[2]'].value != 9999) && (cart_quantity.elements['id[3]'].value != 9999))) { alert('Please select only one option!'); cart_quantity.elements['id[2]'].value = 9999; cart_quantity.elements['id[3]'].value = 9999; cart_quantity.elements['id[2]'].focus(); return false; } if (((cart_quantity.elements['id[2]'].value == 9999) && (cart_quantity.elements['id[3]'].value == 99999))) alert('Please select an option!'); cart_quantity.elements['id[2]'].value = 9999; return false; } //--></script> I tried to assign id3 a value of 99999 so that on pages that it doesnt get reassigned after (i.e pages it does not exist on) it will still be equal to 99999 and pop up the error according to the second if clause. Unfortunately that did not work either. Is there any other way I can do via javascript? Hi, I know this is painfully obvious, but I can't get my head around it. Basically, these loops: Code: for (var p=0; p < routeInfo.length; p++) { times = routeInfo[p].getElementsByTagName("time"); dirs = routeInfo[p].getElementsByTagName("dirs"); dist = routeInfo[p].getElementsByTagName("dist"); for (q=0;q<dirs.length;q++) { count++; time = GXml.value(routeInfo[p].getElementsByTagName("time")[q]); dir = GXml.value(routeInfo[p].getElementsByTagName("dirs")[q]); dist = GXml.value(routeInfo[p].getElementsByTagName("dist")[q]); if (time.length>1) { way+='<div class="dir">'+count+'. '+dir+'</div>'+'<div class="results"><div class="time">'+time+'</div><div class="dist">'+dist+'</div><br><br>'; } else way+='<div class="dir">'+count+'. '+dir+'</div><br>'; } } outputs lines of text, with two <br> between them. What I want is for if it's the last loop for that only to be one <br> so I'm thinking something like this: Code: if (last loop) {end =<br>} else end=<br><br> ... way+='<div class="dir">'+count+'. '+dir+'</div>'+'<div class="results"><div class="time">'+time+'</div><div class="dist">'+dist+'</div>'+end; but I can't figure out what that "last loop" code should be. Any ideas? Hello, Can you someone point me to the right script? I have a text box and would like to see if the value of the input matches the values defined in a JavaScript array. For example, the JavaScript array will hold five values: v1 = Tom v2 = Jerry v3 = Michael v4 = Stephanie v5 = Michelle If the text box does not equal one of those values, an alert will pop up stating it does not match. Thanks. I tried the following code based on a post I saw somewhere else about summing all the elements of an array together. When I tried it though I couldn't seem to get it working. Can someone please point out what I did wrong or tell me a different way to sum array elements together? Thanks. Code: <script type="text/javascript"> Array.prototype.sum = function() { for (var i = 0, L = this.length, sum = 0; i < L; sum += this[i++]); return sum; } var myArray=[1,2,3,4,5]; document.write(myArray.prototype.sum); </script> Hi again!!

Hi, I'm pulling my hair out to create a simple function! I am creating an array based on form elements. I then am trying to create an IF (and nested IF) statement to check if the fields are empty and then with the nested IF statement use certain fields to create mathematical functions. So far I have this: function QuantityMWh(form) { var formchk = document.forms[0] for (i = 0; i < formchk.elements.length; i++) { if (formchk.elements[1].value == "" && formchk.elements[2].value == "") { alert("Please fill out all fields.") break } } } It's only checking the first field and not the second, and vice versa. i.e. if only one field has text then it passes. What am I doing wrong? Thanks. Hi Folks - I have a form that has an array of input values: <input type="text" name=txtValue[] /> <input type="text" name=txtValue[] /> I do this so I can loop through the values in php... now...that's the easy part... the hard part comes to this: next to each of those boxes is a search button that allows the user to open up a popup window that they can search for an item, and select the item. Once they select the item it should populate that particular input box with the selected item. I can easily do this with a uniquely named input box, but can't seem to figure out how to do it with an array of input boxes... any idea? Hey All, I have completed most of a homework assignment that I am working on. I am able to .push desired elements into an array: Code: //Insert variable into the Array function insertElem(){ //Insert and sort first array, but not second array if(nameInput.value != ""){ studName2.push(nameInput2.value); } else{ alert("Value to be inserted cannot be Null"); } //Refresh display area clearAndShow2(); } What I would like to do is be able to store and display the created array "permanently" until I decide to remove the elements. My current method to hold the elements, until the page is refreshed, is: Code: //Refresh second array function clearAndShow2(){ nameInput2.value = ""; messageBox2.innerHTML = ""; messageBox2.innerHTML += "Groups: " + "<br />" + studName2.join("<br />") + "<br />"; } I appreciate the assistance. Hi Guys I am new to javascript programming and I am trying to get elements from one array to another, here is an example of what I am trying to do; Code: oneArray[0] = anotherArray[10]; Essentially, moving the data in index 10 of anotherArray to the index 0 of oneArray. I have tried using a variable as a place holder such as; Code: placeHolder = anotherArray[10]; oneArray[0] = placeHolder; I know i'm doing something idiotic somewhere along the line, I just can't figure out what I need to do. Hi All, Simple newbie question here - I want to initialize an array with "myString.length" elements, and I want every element to be prepopulated with "*" instead of blank. Is there any way of doing this? Code: var myString = '123456'; var trialVar = new Array[myString.length] document.write('TEST ' + '<BR><BR>' + trialVar); (I want every element of trialVar to be "*", I cant just manually add them as myString.length will vary) Any help would be mega appreciated - thank you Hi, I am stumped. I have been trying unsuccesfully for three days to figure something out, and it has brought me here. I am a noob javascripter, so please bear with me.

I have 5 color sets i would like use for the page, so i would like the button to trigger the color change in a loop, ie when the last color group is reached, the next click returns to the original color set and it continues again. This is a demo page, not for actually publication. I am trying to teach myself javascript and this is an idea that came to me. The things i want to change are the background color of two div's and the top row of a table. My style sheet is seperate, and I will also do the same for the javascript once I can get it to work properly. Thank you in advance for any help. I wrote js functions to reset a php form (multiple questions). The below works: Code: function resetForm(){ resetGroup(document.forms[0].answer1); resetGroup(document.forms[0].answer2); } Answer1 and answer2 are the elements of $_POST array. (<input name="answer1"> in php). In this example, I tried with only two questions, but I have up to 35 questions in one form. Instead of writing the above resetGroup() 35 times, I want to for-loop it. I tried Code: function resetForm(){ for (var i=1; i<3; i++){ resetGroup(document.forms[0]."answer"+i); } That didn't work. Could someone help me to make the loop work? Or would someone have better or simpler idea? Thanks. Guys, For some reason my script only works when I have at lease two checkboxes. To simulate the problem just run it once with two html input checkbox elements -> check one checkbox and press submit -> it works -> Now remove one input checkbox field and check the remaining checkbox & submit -> Bamm doesn't work... What am I doing wrong ? Code: <html> <head> <script> function Check(chk) { for (i=0; i < chk.length; i++) chk[i].checked=document.ListActionForm.Check_ctr.checked ; } function desubmit() { if(get_args()==false) {alert("nothing_selected");return false;} if(labelling(true)) return false; } function labelling(s) {return true;} function get_args() { s=chkboxa2str(document.ListActionForm['listaction[]']); if(s)alert(s); if(s.length<8)return false; else return s; } function chkboxa2str(chkbox_a) { var list = ""; for(var i = 0; i < chkbox_a.length; i++){ if(chkbox_a[i].checked) { list += chkbox_a[i].value + " "; } } return list; } </script> </head> <body> <form action="?h=1296078874" method="post" name="ListActionForm" onsubmit="return desubmit()"> <input type='checkbox' name='listaction[]' value='2010102909103530'> Testbox 1<br> <input type='checkbox' name='listaction[]' value='2010102909103532'> Testbox 2<br> <input type="Submit" name="Submit" value="Versturen" > </form> </body> </html> Hi all, Forgive my ignorance, I'm quite new to Javascript... I'm looking to do two things: the first is to move elements of an array to the next index using a function. I have managed to do this like so: Code: var letters = ['h','i','j','k']; function moveElements(anArray){ var newArray = anArray; newArray.unshift(newArray[newArray.length-1]); newArray.pop(); } moveElements(letters); (this may or not be great, but it seemed to work) ... but I want the original array to reset to its original state if the function is called again (thus producing the same answer as opposed to shifting the elements again). Secondly, and this is the bit I'm really struggling with: I want to compare each letter of a string to elements within an array and display the indices. For instance: Code: var myArray = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f']; var text = 'dead'; Hence I want the result '3,4,0,3'. I know the answer will use for and if statements but I can't wrap my head around it at all. Help would be appreciated, thank you. I'm writing a simple Chess Record keeping app (still ), and i'm having a problem with the Screen.X and Screen.Y variables to compare with the coordinate variables stored in an Array. The project is a little large, so here's the live version (on my website). Though it will only work if you run it from your local disk. http://daomingjin.googlepages.com/ScoreMate.html the zip archive of this is he http://daomingjin.googlepages.com/ScoreMatev1.zip the main JavaScript function file is he http://daomingjin.googlepages.com/Core.js the particular function in question is this: Code: var PieceThere = isPieceHere(ClosestX, ClosestY); function isPieceHere(x, y) { // Test to see if there is an Element at point x,y for (var i = 0; i < 32; i++) { if (PieceLocationXcoord[i] == x) { if(PieceLocationYcoord[i] == y) { // There is a piece there var Result = "True"; } } } return Result; } i have placed alert() boxes in many places in the code above, and i can tell the following: the function is being activated the coordinates of x and y are able to be accessed inside the function the arrays called PieceLocationYcoord and PieceLocationXcoord both have the values in them that are returned by the ClosestX and ClosestY function however, every time , the function continues to return "Undefined". I have even tried manually setting var Result = "True" inside the last if-then block, and still returns undefined. i have also tried using the alert box inside this function (before the variable return Result; is called) and still get undefined as the message from the alert box. Years ago I created HTML that employs checkboxes and textboxes. I am now writing JS with the intention of adding flexibility and limiting redundancy. I am not sure I truly understand how to correctly interact the two though. For example, one of my scripts have arrays that contain the names of the checkboxes and textboxes, with a 'for' loop to document.write() them to references within the HTML code. This does not seem to be working for me though. Here is what I have thus far (in short): Code: <script language="javascript"> var teamNames = new Array(3); teamNames[0]="South Africa"; teamNames[1]="Mexico"; teamNames[2]="Uruguay"; for (i=0; i<=31; i++) { document.write("<p>" + teamNames[i] + "<\/p>"); } </script> </head> <body> <tr><td>Jun 11</td><td><input type="checkbox" name="teamNames[0]" value="teamAbbr[0]"></td> </body> I've left out a lot of the code (to include the teamAbbr array, but you get the points. I've tried moving the JS within the HTML body and playing with the reference syntax, but nothing so far. Any help would be great! I am very new to javascript. I have a problem getting to any element from this form generated by the jsp page using struts. Please show me how to get to item[0].totalAmount for example, so that I can create a function to calculate the calculateTotal(). So far, when I do the alert, it is only valid up to document.myForm.item; the document.myForm.item[0] is invalid according to the alert. Any help is very much appreciated. function calculateTotal(){ alert(document.myForm.item); } <form name="myForm" method="post" action="/myAction.do"> <table id="display" border="1"> <tr> <th scope="col" id="totalAmount">Total Amount</th> <th scope="col" id="adjustmentAmount>Adjustment Amount</th> <th scope="col" id="newAmount">NewAmount</th> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="text" name="item[0].totalAmount" id="totalAmount" value="100" readonly="readonly"></td> <td><input type="text" name="item[0].adjustmentAmount" id="adjustmentAmount" value="" onblur="javascript:calculateTotal();" readonly="readonly"></td> <td><input type="text" name="item[0].newAmount" id="newAmount" value="" readonly="readonly"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><input type="text" name="item[1].totalAmount" id="totalAmount" value="350" readonly="readonly"></td> <td><input type="text" name="item[1].adjustmentAmount" id="adjustmentAmount" value="" onblur="javascript:calculateTotal();" readonly="readonly"></td> <td><input type="text" name="item[1].newAmount" id="newAmount" value="" readonly="readonly"></td> </tr> </table> </form> I have one question about <style> elements, are they counted in document.styleSheets array? and can I add rules to them by using insertRule() and deleteRule() methods?
