JavaScript - Simple Date Rtn Giving Nan
In the routine below I'm trying to make sure a date isn't > today.
It WORKS FINE in Firefox but I get a NaN in MSN. WHY? And how do I fix it? Thanks Note: ( 2010 2 1 is in testfield and 2010 4 20 is in todayfield) var todayfield = tdyear+" "+tdmonth+" "+tdday; alert ("today=" + todayfield); alert (Date.parse(testfield)); alert (Date.parse(todayfield)); if (Date.parse(testfield) <= Date.parse(todayfield)) Similar TutorialsHi all. I'm developing After Effects scripts using their Extendscript language - essentially just Javascript with various extensions. I've defined a class, called ScriptSetting, which handles reading and writing of user settings to a prefs file. For example I create a ScriptSetting variable as follows: Code: var mySetting = new ScriptSetting("myScript", "thisSettingKey", 200); This calls the ScriptSetting constructor function: Code: function ScriptSetting(sectionName, keyName, defaultValue) { this.sectionName = sectionName; // Store the type of this setting for conversion later this.defaultType = defaultValue.constructor; // Convert any type to a string value for storing defaultValue = defaultValue.toString(); this.keyName = keyName; if(!app.settings.haveSetting(this.sectionName, this.keyName)) { this.value = defaultValue; this.saveSetting(); } else this.value = this.getSetting(); } This calls some of Extendscript's built-in functions, like app.settings.haveSetting() This all works fine - I can then later access mySetting's value with, for example alert(mySetting.value) since I've defined value as part of the class constructor function. However what I'd ideally like to do, if at all possible is to lose the .value part and just be able to access the setting value directly from the setting variable, so in this case alert(mySetting). At the moment, this will just return object Object. Naturally this is because mySetting is an instance of the ScriptSetting object. But I wondered if you can spoof this with a different type (i.e. Array or Number) when accessing it as part of a statement e.g. if(mySetting == 200) { // do something } but still retain all its prototyped methods, e.g. Code: mySetting = 300; mySetting.saveSetting(); Is this possible in Javascript? It's not a deal-breaker - I just want to make my code a bit more readable. Many thanks in advance, Christian Hi I'm using an image hover script so when you mouseover a thumbnail it displays a larger version of the image in a javascript/jquery nice image popup (not a popup window but like a floating image). It comes from the script here http://cssglobe.com/lab/tooltip/02/ The trouble is, I need the large image to display above and to the left of the thumbnail - not to the right and below. Looking in the js file I see these values: Code: this.imagePreview = function(){ /* CONFIG */ xOffset = 10; yOffset = 30; // these 2 variable determine popup's distance from the cursor // you might want to adjust to get the right result I've tried making these -500 and -500 but it just makes them like the negative value was not added (the large image goes down 500px). So as I don't understand javascript code I'm thinking that is not the way to give a negative number? Would appreciate any help please How do I store how many Windows my house has as a variable as this script I made isn't working.

An example: Code: <div id="parent"> <a href="/">Name</a> <-! start message -> <b>child element text</b> <-! end message -> </div> I want the bold tag to have the link, basically. But through javascript. Does anyone know how to make these things work? I have to make this hanjie puzzle and I have at least gotten the black squares to display. I have worked through all the directions three times and run it through the Firebug. I don't understand what it is asking for and don't know how to change the code to make this work, someone please help me! Code: window.onload = setPuzzle; var allCells = new Array(); function setPuzzle() { var puzzleTable = document.getElementById("puzzleCells"); allCells = document.getElementsByTagName("td"); for (var i =0; i < allCells.length; i++) { allCells[i].style.backgroundColor = "white"; allCells[i].onclick = changeColor; } document.getElementById("solution").onclick = showSolution; document.getElementById("hide").onclick = hideSolution; document.getElementById("solution").onclick = showSolution; document.getElementById("check").onclick = checkSolution; document.getElementById("uncheck").onclick = uncheckSolution; } function changeColor(){ this.style.backgroundColor = (this.style.backgroundColor == "black") ? "white" : "black"; } function showSolution(){ for(var i=0;i<allCells.length; i++) { if(allCells.className == "dark"){ allCells[i].style.backgroundColor = "black"; } else { allCells[i].style.backgroundColor = "white"; } } checkCount = 0; } function hideSolution() { for(var i=0;i<allCells.length; i++) { allCells[i].style.backgroundColor = "white"; } checkCount = " "; } function checkSolution() { var checkCount = 0; for (var i = 0; i< allCells.length; i++) { if (allCells[i].style.backgroundColor == "black" && allCells[i].className != "dark") { allCells[i].style.backgroundColor = "red"; } else if (allCells[i].className == "dark" && allCells[i].style.backgroundColor == "white"){ checkCount++; } return checkCount.value; } } function uncheckSolution() { for (var i = 0; i< allCells.length; i++) { if (allCells[i].style.backgroundColor == "red") { allCells[i].style.backgroundColor = "black"; } checkCount = " "; } } Dreamweaver is giving me a syntax error, but i dont understand what is wrong. i copied the line from the source code of the demo file included in the download and it it still telling me there is a syntax error. obviously something is wrong bc my slider isnt auto-sliding. so then i tried copying and pasting from the source code of the web page i got the slider from (http://www.ndoherty.biz/demos/coda-slider/2.0/) Dreamweaver then moved the syntax error warning to the line that only contains my closing script tag what am i doing wrong? why am i getting syntax errors? how can i make this thing autoslide? full code available at: http://mydomainsample.com/fire_rebuild All, I have the following code: console.log("My num is: " + num); console.log("My lat is: " + lat); console.log("My lat length is: " + lat.length); console.log("My long is: " + long); When I get the output, I get the following: My num is: {"1":1,"2":2} My lat is: {"1":"40.59479899","2":"41.4599860"} My lat length is: 36 My long is: {"1":"-75.5549650","2":"-87.596430"} I'm confused on why the length is saying 36 when it's obviously two and the other output shows that??? Let's say I set up a table with <table name=tile1 id=justChecking border=1> When I want to do something with it or get its position, using document.tile1, I get nothing but undefined. But id and getElements work fine: the line alert(document.getElementById('justChecking')); returns [object], and the lines Code: var handle = document.getElementsByTagName("table")[0]; alert("Or, it's seen as " +handle+ " called " +handle.name); return Or, it's seen as [object] called tile1. So this means that accessing a table via a name isn't doable? How is it that this is a shortcoming that seems to be the nature of IE, and yet not mentioned or searchable? Or maybe I'm doing something moronic. -------------------------------------------------- The code here isn't showing anything new ... merely saving a round of posts in case someone wants the whole thing or wants to copy/paste it. Code: <HTML><BODY> <TABLE name=tile1 id=justChecking border=1><tbody><tr><td>Very odd,<td>I say.</table> <br> <script type="text/javascript"> alert("Seeking tile1 as " +document.tile1); alert("Maybe detectable as " +document.getElementById('justChecking')); var handle = document.getElementsByTagName("table")[0]; alert("Or, it's seen as " +handle+ " called " +handle.name); </script> </body></html> I think the `getJSON` should be taking the JSON URL and returning it as a response - The data file has `Author x3 Body x3 and Title x3`. Once it has this it should map it into the `nodes` and give me three nodes for each section of data. However currently its giving me the `console.log` output that I have below and nothing in my `nodes var` **Console Log:** Code: script.js:7 [Object, Object, Object]0: Object1: Object2: Objectlength: 3__proto__: Array[0] **Code:** Code: $(document).ready(function(){ var url = "assets/js/data.json"; $.getJSON(url).done(function(response) { var nodes = response.map(function(i) { return $('<div>').append( $('<div>', {class: 'title'}).text(i.title), $('<div>', {class: 'author'}).text(i.author), $('<div>', {class: 'body'}).text(i.body) ); console.log(response); }); }); });//Ready function closed Reply With Quote 01-08-2015, 10:56 PM #2 Old Pedant View Profile View Forum Posts Supreme Master coder! Join Date Feb 2009 Posts 28,311 Thanks 82 Thanked 4,754 Times in 4,716 Posts The data file has `Author x3 Body x3 and Title x3`. Literally??? That is, it has something like Code: { Author: "Adam", Author: "Bob", Author: "Carol", Body: "Somethhing...", Body: "something else ...", Body: "more stuff...", Title: "Book one", Title: "Book two", Title: "Book three" } ??? I'm sure that's not what you meant, but what *DID* you mean? Why not simply copy/paste the contents of "data.json" to here? i'm working with a javascript on a drupal website, but the saving function seems to work only as soon as i click 2 times on the "save" button. the code that fires the function is: Code: var param ="&usuario="+usuario+"&nivel="+nivel+gano+porc_gano+gasto+porc_gasto+tengo+porc_tengo+debo+ porc_debo+plazo_debo; var s = document.createElement("script"); s.type = "text/javascript"; s.async = true; s.src = server_direction +"setMisDatos?callback=respuestaGuardarMisDatos¶m="+encodeURIComponent(param); var h = document.getElementsByTagName("script")[0]; h.parentNode.insertBefore(s, h); //or h.appendChild(s); the chrome console tells me the error is in the last line i copied, but i don't undertand what kind of error it is. using chrome console (specifically the "network" one), i see that it's written in red, status/text "failed", type "undefined" size/content "13 B / 0 B"; when it works it's: status/text "200/OK", type "text/json", size/content "256 B/ 38B". i'm not an expert with this, is there some more information that could be useful? the code fires a netbeans function, that stores data to a postgresql database, so i have like 100 variables that has to be stored when i click on the "save button". Actually before i put parentNode.insertBefore, there used to be appendChild(s), but then i found out this algorithm from google analytics, which seems to be working better than the previous one. Having said that, i can tell you that the GET works after the first time i click perfectly, with some weird things happening, like if i browse another tab for a while, then go back to the page, and click on save, it won't work again (same error). The variables are written like this: Code: var plazo_debo_casa1 = (getValor("plazo_debo_casa1")); var plazo_debo_casa2 = (getValor("plazo_debo_casa2")); var plazo_debo_casa3 = (getValor("plazo_debo_casa3")); var plazo_debo_prestamo1 = (getValor("plazo_debo_prestamo1")); var plazo_debo_prestamo2 = (getValor("plazo_debo_prestamo2")); var plazo_debo_prestamo3 = (getValor("plazo_debo_prestamo3")); var plazo_debo ="&plazo_debo_casa1="+plazo_debo_casa1+"&plazo_debo_casa2="+plazo_debo_casa2+"&plazo_debo_casa3="+plazo_debo_casa3+"&plazo_debo_prestamo1="+plazo_debo_prestamo1+"&plazo_debo_prestamo2="+plazo_debo_prestamo2+"&plazo_debo_prestamo3="+plazo_debo_prestamo3; and then together in the "param" variable. Is it clearer now? i tried to copy document.head.appendChild(s); instead of parentNode.insertBefore(s,h), but it still behaves the same way. Still not any suggestions? This is part of the javascript file loading on my page, and since the function setMisDatos is in netbeans and it works correctly as soon as it's fired (at least, that's what i notice after the first click), i don't think it's worth copying part of it here, right? are there maybe too many variables for the GET method? is there a way to check GET errors? i'm sorry for not being an expert but i would really like some help here. I have a CSS file associated with this that sets the width at "200px." However, I am getting a 40px wide dropdown. Can anybody catch an error in here? Using console.log, I found that el, as soon as it is defined, is = div.dropdown. As soon as .width comes into the picture, it returns as six consecutive 101px and a ton of 40px after that... and continues returning those values till the end. I appreciate any input!! Code: var Dropdown = function(el) { this.el = el; this.handle = el.find("div.dropdown-text"); this.options = el.find("div.dropdown-options"); this.optionsWrap = this.options.parent(); this.action = el.attr("action"); this.type = el.attr("type"); this.target = el.attr("target"); this.Init(); } Dropdown.prototype.Init = function() { var self = this; var extraPadding = 40; this.isShown = false; console.log(this); this.width = this.options.outerWidth() + extraPadding; this.height = this.options.outerHeight(); if (this.height > 300) { this.height = 300; this.options .height(300) .width(this.width + 12) .addClass("scroll-pane") .jScrollPane({ showArrows: true, scrollbarWidth: 9 }) this.width += 12; } else { this.options.width(this.options.width() + extraPadding); } var newWidth = (this.width < 220) ? this.width : 220; this.el.width(newWidth); this._AddShadow(); this.optionsWrap.css({ display: "none", visibility: "visible", width: this.width + 5, height: this.height + 5 }); this._SetEvents(); }; Dropdown.prototype.Toggle = function(force) { if (this.isShown && !force) { this.optionsWrap.hide(); this.isShown = false; } else if (!this.isShown && false !== force){ this.optionsWrap.show(); this.isShown = true; } } Dropdown.prototype._AddShadow = function() { var shadowWidth = 5, layer; for (var i = 0; i < shadowWidth; i++) { layer = $('<div class="shadow_layer"> </div>'); layer.css({ opacity: 0.055 * (i + 1), top: (shadowWidth - i), left: (shadowWidth - i), height: this.height, width: this.width }); this.optionsWrap.prepend(layer); } } Dropdown.prototype._SetEvents = function() { var self = this; this.el.bind('click', function(e) { var current = $(e.target); var type = current.attr("type"); if (current.hasClass('dropdown-text') || current.hasClass('dropdown-arrow')) { if (!self.isShown) { page.HideAllDropdowns(); } self.Toggle(); return false; } if (current.hasClass('dropdown-opt')) { switch (type) { case 'auto': case 'basic': var html = current.html(); self.handle.html(html); self.options.find('a.dropdown-opt').each(function() { $(this).removeClass('selected'); }); if ('auto' == type) { page.common.Update({ url: current.attr('path'), params: current.attr('params'), target: self.target, parent: true, method: "POST", handler: { handler: function(results) { var action = this.attr("action"); if (action) { page.events.Fire(action, this, results) }; }, context: current } }); } current.addClass('selected'); self.Toggle(); return false; case 'multi': current.toggleClass('selected'); break; case 'function': var html = current.html(); self.handle.html(html); current.Fire(); self.Toggle(false); break } } return false; }); } Not sure if this is possible in javascript: I'm looking for two different dates (bill date and due date) on an invoice that are captured by OCR. If one of them exists, but the other does not, I want the empty field to be 14 days before (or after) the other. For example: if the bill date is 7/27/2010 and the due date was not captured, I want to set the due date as 8/10/2010 (14 days after the bill date). If the due date was captured as 8/10/2010, but the due date is blank, I want to assign the bill date as 7/27/2010 (14 days before the due date). if both dates have values, do nothing. Thanks. Hi, I've inherited a Form which calculates a future date based on a calculation and then inserts today's date and the future date into a database. The day part of the date is formatted as a number. This is fine, but up to 9 the numbers display in single figures with no leading zeros. I want them to display leading zeros (e.g. 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 10, 11... 30, 31) So; 1/12/2010 is NOT wanted 01/12/2010 IS wanted The inherited code originally set the Month names as "Jan", "Feb" etc, and it was easy to kludge these to 01, 02... 12, but I suspect there's a more elgant solution to this as well, this bit of the code works so it's not as vital to neaten this but my database needs dd/mm/yyyy format (it's a third party email program). Code: </script> <script type="text/javascript"> var todaysDate = new Date(); function updateExpiryDate(){ var weeklyMileage = document.getElementById('AvWeeklyMileage').value; var expiryDate; var weeks = 0; var expiryDateString = ''; if (!isNaN(parseInt(weeklyMileage))){ weeks = 700/weeklyMileage; expiryDate = new Date(todaysDate.getTime() + (1000 * 3600 * 24 * 7 * weeks)); var expiryDateString = expiryDate.getDate() + '/' + getMonthString(expiryDate.getMonth()+1) + '/' + expiryDate.getFullYear(); document.getElementById('expiryDate').innerHTML = expiryDateString; document.getElementById('ShoeExpiryDate').value = expiryDateString; } else { document.getElementById('ShoeExpiryDate').value = ''; document.getElementById('expiryDate').innerHTML = 'Please enter a valid weekly average mileage' } } function getMonthString(monthNumber){ var monthString = ""; switch(monthNumber){ case 1: monthString = "01"; break; case 2: monthString = "02"; break; case 3: monthString = "03"; break; case 4: monthString = "04"; break; case 5: monthString = "05"; break; case 6: monthString = "06"; break; case 7: monthString = "07"; break; case 8: monthString = "08"; break; case 9: monthString = "09"; break; case 10: monthString = "10"; break; case 11: monthString = "11"; break; case 12: monthString = "12"; break; default: // do nothing; } return monthString; } function setTodaysDate(){ var todaysDateString = todaysDate.getDate() + '/' + getMonthString(todaysDate.getMonth()+1) + '/' + todaysDate.getFullYear(); document.getElementById('todaysDate').innerHTML =todaysDateString; document.getElementById('DateOfPurchase').value = todaysDateString; } Can someone point me in the right direction please?
