JavaScript - Perl/javascript Compactability
Hello,
I have a perl code and I am animating using js. Can anyone explain how far they are compactible. Here is one of my problem... code: print "Qword(l);"; print "function Qword(l){"; print "if(l<5){"; print "$j=l;"; print "alert($j);"; print "l++;"; print "Qword(l);"; print "}"; print "}"; This is going into a infinite loop, this code comes from a perl fn I have declared $j. I changed it, still j is not incremented. print "function Qword(l){"; print "if(l<5){"; $j++; print "alert($j);"; print "l++;"; print "Qword(l);"; print "}"; print "}" Can anyone help me please.. Thank you, jv123 Similar TutorialsI have a Perl script that contains a variety of inputs including a HTML <SELECT> and RADIO buttons. I would like to alter the presentation of a RADIO button choice with a DISABLED, based upon the earlier selection of from a <SELECT> drop down menu. In Perl I attempted to capture the selection from the <SELECT> and use that value in a IF ELSE block, but this does not work. I have been told that this can be done with a Javascript. I did a little bit of coding with Javascript around five years ago, so I am a rusty newbie. Can anyone give me a hand on how this should be constructed? The more detailed your examples or suggestions can be the easier it will be for me to grasp the solution. Hi everyone, I've been coding Perl for quite some time, but I'm new to Javascript and can't quite figure this out. I want to call a Javascript function that is sent to the browser via a perl script. When I hard code the string "Fargo" into the code it works just fine, when I pass the word Fargo via a variable the script will not call the function what so ever. Is it possible to call a javascript function via a Perl script with Perl providing all the necessary data? Here is my code: #!/usr/local/bin/perl use CGI qw(:all); use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); use Cwd; print header; print "top<br><br>"; $data = "fargo"; print <<html; <html><head></head>my heading is here<br><body></body> <script type="text/javascript"> function testz(inbound) { document.write("im in ", inbound); } //the script will only work if I uncomment the line below and comment out two lines below //var data1="fargo"; var data1 = $data; testz(data1); </script> </html> html Thanks to everyone in advance for your help. Hi, I'm still in the early stages of learning Javascript so I'm not sure how (or if it's possible) to do this. I know HTML, CSS, etc... just not too familiar with Javascript. Here's the deal.... I run a website that features a chat room written in Perl for CGI. The chat room will automatically email a user their password if it's forgotten but there is one issue.....it does not have the "Forgot Password?" link. To achieve the Lost Password page, the user must enter an invalid password FIRST on the login screen, otherwise they cannot get to that option and are often requesting assistance. What I had in mind was an easier way for the user to get their password since new novice members are not sure how to get to the lost password page. I'm not trying to edit the Perl code for the chat, but I wanted to build a "Forgot Password?" page using a Javascript code that will automatically take their username from the "username" login field and direct them to the lost password page which would be "chat2.cgi?action=send_pwd&name=..." I'm sorry if this is confusing, I'm not sure that I am explaining this right. When the user enters an invalid password, it takes them to the lost password page which contains a link "lost password" and will automatically email them their login details when clicked on. When they click that link, the URL contains the string "chat2.cgi?action=send_pwd&name=username" What I would like to do is put a link on the login page (like most normal chat rooms have) that says "Forgot Password?". When clicked on, I want it to take them to a page where all they have to do is enter their username in a form and click Submit, then have a Javascript code automatically extract their username from that field and insert their username automatically to the end of that URL (chat2.cgi?action=send_pwd&name=...) where ... would be the name extracted from that form field. This would result in the browser taking them to that URL which would trigger the chat to automatically email the password. Can I do this with Javascript?? If so, any help would be greatly appreciated! hello all, I am new to javascript, i just wanted to know how can i send a array from perl to javascript function.... if anybody having any idea about this please reply me..thanks in adbvance I am creating an html document with perl. I wrote an event mouseover and mouseout to happen for every perl variable (over a loop). But looks like the event controls all the variables at the same time. How do I write the event only once but enable it to individually be applied for each item: this is what I have currently but this html when displayed, does not let me control the event separately for each $key. Even though the buttons do get created for each $key, clicking on one, controls the $stats_data{$out}{$key} of all. I even tried passing the id to the show/hide script, but no luck. Some help would be greatly appreciated. thanks Code: <header><script> function hideit() { var x1 = document.getElementsByTagName("ol").item(0); var x = document.getElementsByTagName("ol"); for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) x[i].style.display="none"; } function showit() { var x1 = document.getElementsByTagName("ol").item(0); var x=document.getElementsByTagName("ol"); for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) x[i].style.display=""; } </script><header> <body> foreach $key (keys %{$stats_data{$out}}) { print $indexfd ("<input onclick=\"showit()\" type=\"button\" id=\"<?perl echo $key; ?>\" value=\"showit\"><br><input onclick=\"hideit()\" type=\"button\" id=\"<?perl echo $key; ?>\" value=\"hideit\"><br><b><ol id=$key>$stats_data{$out}{$key}<ol id=$key> </b><br>"); }</body> Hello, I am trying to retrieve a cookie I stored with Perl through javascript. Based on the contents of the cookie, I want the javascript to print/not print an extra link on my page. Below is the code, in Perl, I am using to store the cookie. In the Perl forum I was told to post in here for the javascript help. The basic idea is that if the cookie has a "Role" of "Super," the ADMIN link displays on the page. If the role doesn't have "Super," the link is hidden. Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

I am trying to find a script that allows you to open multiple browser tabs and then close each of those tabs, either one by one or all at once. Does anyone know how to do this please? Thanks so much for your help. Does anyone know how to make URL links that use Javascript still work when users have Javascript disabled on their browser? The only reason I'm using JS on a URL is because my link opens a PDF file, and I'm forcing it not to cache so users have the latest version. I tried the <script><noscript> tags, but I'm not sure if I'm using it correctly, as my URL completely disappears.

What I want is that the Javascript could "add" the "$exploded[0]" variable so that the picture can be loaded from different directory. Anyone can do this? I believe that the fix should be somewhere on input tag inside OnClick, or do you know where?

I also have a shared JavaScript library which uses the variables in gameSetting.js, which I include like so: <script type="text/javascript" src="gameSetting.js" ></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="gameLibrary.js" ></script> In gameSetting.js I have: $(document).ready(function() { // call some functions / classes in gameLibrary.js } in Firefox, Safari, and Chrome, this works fine. However, in IE, when it's parsing gameSetting.js, it complains that the functions that live in gameLibrary.js aren't defined. When it gets to parsing gameLibrary.js, the variables in gameSetting.js are reported as not being defined. I've tried dynamically bootstrapping the gameLibrary file using this function in document.ready for dynamic load... $.getScript("gameLibrary.js"); However, the same problem still happens in IE, where when it parses the files individually it's not taking into context the file/variables that came before, so it's not an out of load order problem. My options a 1) collapsing all the functions in gameLibrary.js and variables in gameSetting.js into one file. However, this is not practical because this is dealing with literally hundreds of games, and having a gameLibrary.js in ONE location for ONE update is what makes most logical sense. 2) figure out a way to get this to work where variables in file1 are accessible to file2 in IE (as it seems they are in other browsers). jQuery seems to be able to have multiple plugins that all refer to the based jQuery-1.3.2.js, so I know there is a way to get this to work. Help appreciated. Nero I wrote a log function that took note of various function calls. Thinking that functions are first class objects, and objects have properties, I made the name of each logged function a property of that function, e.g., brightenInnerPara.name = "brightenInnerPara"; Every browser I tried (Firefox, MSIE, Opera, Chrome, Safari) accepted the assignment, no problem. In Firefox and MSIE, the result was what I wanted: brightenInnerPara.name == "brightenInnerPara" But in the others, the result was: brightenInnerPara.name == null Question 1. Which Javascript is correct here? I favor Firefox and MSIE, not merely because they were willing to give me what I wanted, but also because it makes no sense to accept an assignment statement without throwing an error and then give it a null semantics, like Chrome, Opera, and Safari did. I found a workaround, using assignments like this: brightenInnerPara.prototype.name = "brightenInnerPara"; To my surprise, that worked in every browser. But I don't know why. It seems that such assignments are enough to cause each function to have its own distinct prototype. Question 2. Just how inefficient is my workaround, and why does it work? Hi everyone, can someone please help me to find a way to rewrite this code function evenorodd( form ) { var x = new Number( form.x.value ); if( isNaN( x ) || x == "" ) { alert( "Not a number or no value entered" ); return ""; } for( var i = 0; i <= x; i++ ) ( i % 2 == 0 ) ? alert( i + " is even!" ) : alert( i + " is odd!" ); } the purpose is to show an alert box with a odd or even number Thanks in advanced! I am learning javaScript to put into my arsenal of coding tools for employment or to further my abilities in my business. I am reading Head First and in there I came across some code that seems redundant to me. Her is what they have: Code: if (document.getElementById("pickupminutes").value == "" || isNaN(document.getElementById("pickupminutes").value) alert ... Now, I don't know the purpose for the second line except to check if it is a number. However, I think I could solve this with: Code: if (isNaN(document.getElementById("pickupminutes").value == "") I think it would save coding if I could check both if it is a number and if it is and empty string all in one line. Could anyone tell me if this line would not work and why? Thanks all. I've got some Javascript coding that I'm trying to alter. Code: $.fn.MySecret.defaults = { 'code' : '38,38', 'unbind' : true, 'activated' : complete, 'message' : 'You Win!' }; I would like to change the message "You Win!" to an image file. Thanks for helping. |
