JavaScript - Computing Buttons To Work And Alert Messages
so here is my "Project" for this class
http://sw.cs.wwu.edu/~strickk/Project2/project2.html and here are the directions where im stuck at, just right click view source to see the code. I believe what i am doing wrong is where i enter my variables and i dont know how to get an alert message to pop up using an if statement as well as getting the values for the distances to show up correctly directions: 8. Now we will write some JavaScript to validate the input. We don’t want the user to be able to enter the same origin and destination city when they book a ticket. So we will use an if statement to check that. If they have entered the same origin and destination city then we will tell them that by using an alert statement and make them select again. All of your code to validate the input code goes in between the single quotes of the onClick event in the Calculate Fare button. Follow these steps: a) Assign the value of the origin city to a variable called origin Note that the value that gets assigned to origin is actually 0, 60, 90, 120 or 150 (and NOT Bellingham, Everett, Seattle etc.) since the value we gave to the each element of the list was its distance from Bellingham. This will make our lives easier later when we compute the fare. b) Assign the value of the destination city to a variable called destination in a similar fashion. c) Write an if statement that will test whether origin is equal to destination and if it is then do two things. i. Issue an alert message that says Please input different origin and destination cities ii. Stop the execution of the JavaScript code in the onClick event. Use return; as the second statement inside the if statement. Remember to use curly braces to denote that two statements are contained within the if statement. Your if statement will have the following structure to it. if (<put the test you want to do here>) { alert(<put the message here>); return; Similar TutorialsHi I have been looking to create custom buttons in an alert box I would like them to say Go and Cancel instead of OK and cancel Code: onClick="if(confirm('Would you like to continue?')) got 3 groups of radio buttons that, if not all checked, needs to give an alert message when button clicked to continue. The button is not a submit button, but just to continue to the next part of the form which is hidden. Code: <!-- MY RADIO BUTTON GROUPS --> <input name="id[18]" value="81" id="attrib-18-81" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-18-81"> Kola Cubes</label><br /> <input name="id[18]" value="82" id="attrib-18-82" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-18-82"> Pineapple Cubes</label><br /> <input name="id[18]" value="79" id="attrib-18-79" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-18-79"> Rhubarb and Custard</label><br /> <input name="id[18]" value="80" id="attrib-18-80" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-18-80"> Strawberry and Cream</label><br /><br /> <input name="id[19]" value="99" id="attrib-19-99" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-19-99"> Kola Cubes</label><br /> <input name="id[19]" value="100" id="attrib-19-100" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-19-100"> Pineapple Cubes</label><br /> <input name="id[19]" value="97" id="attrib-19-97" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-19-97"> Rhubarb and Custard</label><br /> <input name="id[19]" value="98" id="attrib-19-98" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-19-98"> Strawberry and Cream</label><br /><br /> <input name="id[20]" value="117" id="attrib-20-117" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-20-117"> Kola Cubes</label><br /> <input name="id[20]" value="118" id="attrib-20-118" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-20-118"> Pineapple Cubes</label><br /> <input name="id[20]" value="115" id="attrib-20-115" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-20-115"> Rhubarb and Custard</label><br /> <input name="id[20]" value="116" id="attrib-20-116" type="radio"><label class="attribsRadioButton zero" for="attrib-20-116"> Strawberry and Cream</label><br /><br /> <!-- MY CONTINUE BUTTON --> <img src="images/tabs/button_continue.gif" alt="CONTINUE" onclick="Tabdoc_ManageDisplay(4)"> The onClick function on the image is to hide these and display next part of form. I understand that I could just check them automatically to force user to change them if they wanted to or just continue but if there is way to do it another way, please let me know. Or if possible to hide my continue button until all 3 groups are selected, also without using checked="checked" Thanks in advance. ----------------- Jay hi people I'd need a program just in command prompt to post messages on server minecraft, possibly being able to automate this process every few time, should I use it for more players at a time, work done to pay 20 Euros or more p.s is nothing illegal Hi, I wrote a function which animates an image which looks similar to this: Quote: function animate() { var image = document.getElementById("frontImage"); var cssLeft = image.style.left; var px = cssLeft.substring(0, cssLeft.search("px")); if (px == 100) return; px++; image.style.left = px + "px"; //alert(timage.style.left); setTimeout(this.rotate(), 1); } This seems to be working fine. However, the image goes directly to its final position (100px to the right) and does not go through all the intermediate positions. As soon as I add an alert (the one which is now commented) everything works fine. Anyone knows what the problem is? Thanks in advance for any help I have buttons that check all the check boxes and uncheck all the checkboxes. They seem to not be working. Here is the code. Javascript Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function checkall(delchk) { for (i = 0; i < delchk.length; i++) delchk[i].checked = true; } </script> <script type="text/javascript"> function uncheckall(delchk) { for (i = 0; i < delchk.length; i++) delchk[i].checked = false; } </script> PHP PHP Code: <?php error_reporting(E_ALL); require("inc/config.php"); if (isset($_POST['del'])) { for ($count = 0;$count<count($_POST[delchk]);$count++) { $delete = $_POST[delchk][$count]; $query = "DELETE FROM persons WHERE id = '$delete'"; $result = mysql_query($query); if (!$result) { die("Error deleting persons!

Hi all. I'm trying stuff out for learning. What I would like to do is display the first error message in array ie 'required' if its still wrong when validate again I want message two to display ie 'still required' but I can't work it out. As expected, I always get the last message. Can it be done as I would like or is it done another way? Code: var errmail = []; errmail[0]="Required"; errmail[1]="Still required"; errmail[2]="Oi idiot, enter a VALID email"; /other code here/ email checked and failed for (i=0; i<errmail.length; i++) document.getElementById("emerr").innerHTML = errmail[i] ; /other code/ any positive input very welcome LT ps:-)smile I need help making new messages appearing at the top of the chatbox, not the bottom. Anyone know how to do that? Also, how can I make it hold only X amount of messages then after X amount of messages it just removes the last one.

The error console says that there is a missing parenthetical where I have the ! symbol. I don't see that. Also it says that calendarDay is not defined. On twitter, when you change your avatar/background a small white box covering an inch of the top of the page appears. How can I do this?
What can I do to find out what the errors in the error console mean?
I'm trying to make these two messages change every two seconds. I'm not sure if the setInterval needs to be outside of the function. Also, not sure about HTML action"".

We have 2 meetings per month. I'm thinking what I need to do is create a code that gets the current month, day of month, and year then combines it together somehow, and if that combination is in a certain range a particular statement, "Next meeting is MM, DD YY." or "Next meeting is today." is displayed. If date is equal to or between 01012012 and 01112012, "Next meeting is January, 12 2012" is displayed. If date is equal to 01122012, "Next meeting is today" is displayed. If date is equal to or between 01132012 and 01252012, "Next meeting is January, 26 2012" is displayed. If date is equal to 01262012, "Next meeting is today" is displayed. ...that kind of thing. How would I combine the month, day of month, and year? Would 48 if statements be what I need to do? Sorry, I'm pretty new to javascript. If there's a better way to do this, please let me know.
