JavaScript - Url Too Long, So I Need A Function That'd Save Only On Some Columns Of Postgres Data

Hi,

Any one help me

In one variable i have some data ex: var data = document.getElementById("imageId").value;

I want to pass this data to another function inside another function ex:

var button1 = '<img src="images/Remove-button.gif" width="70" height="15" onclick="removeVerifyImageRow(this),saveLibData('+data+')"/>';

while running the application i am getting an error incase if the data is string ex:if data is 'image1' i am getting an error, but with number there is no problem ex: if data is '1122'.

this is very urgent to solve this problem plz any one help me

overview:
from my javascript,
i call a function in the php block,
that function successfully retrieves a value from the database,
but when i pass that retrieved value back to the calling function....all is lost somehow.

when i test this code by itself, it works fine and gets the correct number.

<?php
mysql_select_db($database_connFtH, $connFtH);
$result = mysql_query("SELECT status_index FROM cpqc_status ORDER BY row_id DESC");
$row_result = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
$index = $row_result['status_index'];

echo $row_result['status_index'];
echo $index;
echo "the value of index is ".$index;
?>

however, when i set this same code up as a function to be called upon globally, and to return the value of $index, it all just seems to "not work".

<?php
function runStatus() {
mysql_select_db($database_connFtH, $connFtH);
$result = mysql_query("SELECT status_index FROM cpqc_status ORDER BY row_id DESC");
$row_result = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
$index = $row_result['status_index'];
return ($index);
} //end function runStatus()
?>

the calling function, with an alert box to check if the value of $index was passed down accurately

<script type="text/javascript">
var x = runStatus();
alert(x);
</script>

all i want to do is call a server-script function that deals with the database and gets me a value out of the database, and pass that value back to the calling function. can't figure out what is wrong. the "return($index)" should send back the value of $index. the call to that function should receive back a value and assign it to "x". and the alert(x) should spit it out with no problem. but......something is wrong and it won't work.

any ideas what is wrong?

it is my understanding that a function inside the php determants can be called upon from anywhere and that function can return a value.(?)

argh!! i think i know why Einstein's hair was always so messy!!

Hey all i am in need of some help trying to figure out how to pass a string into an array field for a chart. The chart i am using is this [http://www.highcharts.com/]

Here is the chart code:
Code:

 function drawChart(theDATA)
    {
        var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
            chart: {renderTo: 'container',defaultSeriesType: 'column'},
            title: {text: 'March 2010 Confirmed User Visit\'s'},
            xAxis: {categories: ['1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9','10','11','12','13','14','15','16','17','18','19','20','21','22','23','24','25','26','27','28','29','30','31']},
            yAxis: {min: 0,title: {text: 'User Visit\'s'}},
            legend: {layout: 'vertical',backgroundColor: '#FFFFFF',style: {left: '100px',top: '70px',bottom: 'auto'}},
            tooltip: {formatter: function() {return this.y;}},
            plotOptions: {column: {pointPadding: 0.2,borderWidth: 0}},
                series: [{name: 'Confirmed Users Visit\'s',
                data: theDATA.split(',')
            }]
        }); 
    }

With the code above, you would think that theDATA would work but it does not display the data within it.

Say that theDATA is '2,5,4,7,8,9'. If i had this:
Code:

data: [2,5,4,7,8,9]

Then it would work just fine. But if i use those same numbers...
Code:

theData = "2,5,4,7,8,9"
data: theDATA.split(',')

It does nothing on the chart...

So what am i doing wrong????

I m trying to send data to my database (Mysql). When I enter things in the prompt box it doesn t go to my database.

Can someone tell me why, please?

Here is my code:

<script type="text/javascript">
function show_prompt()
{
var name=prompt("question");
if (name!=null && name!="")
{
//set the hidden input value to the value entered in the prompt
document.input.purpose.value = name; //document.input referring to the form named 'input'
document.input.submit(); //submit the form
}
}
</script>




<form id="propose" name="input" action="insertpropose.php" method="post"><br/>
<input type="submit" onclick="show_prompt()" value="propose" />
<input type="hidden" name="propose" value="">
</form>


and the insertpropose.php form is:

$propose=$_POST['propose'];


mysql_connect(localhost,$username,$password);
@mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database");

$query = "INSERT INTO propose VALUES ('','$propose')";
mysql_query($query);

mysql_close();

Scenario:

Client Side : Simple functions that have events tied to different elements. Each time an event is triggered the function begins an Ajax call to an external server side page filled with JS functions.

Server Side : Our client side AJAX call sends the name of the function we want to call out on this file. Once called and performed, it returns DOM edits that could be fired once our client side page receives the data back from Ajax.

I know that data being returned from Ajax is always a string. But would it be possible? I mean could the server side file send out commands or rather DOM edits that the client side could pick up on and perform?

I am almost 100% certain the answer is no due to JS needing to be cached in the browser and what not, but I figured I would ask the experts anyways.

BTW: objective is to move sensitive core JS functions to prevent online application theft... without Flex or Air.

Hello,

I would like to create something like this: Practice mental arithmetic both the entire thing and multiple smaller programs that could be embedded into a web page that deal with specific problems, i.e. separate addition, subtraction etc. I have no knowledge of CSS, javascript etc. How long before I could do this?

Hi,

I would like to get the Lat/Lng coordinates into teh values in my form but instead I get N/E values, Can anyone please help?
Here is my page:
http://www.nakedsloth.com/where/default.php

here is my code:

Code:

<?php 
include_once("common.php");
$markers = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM wheremarkers1");
while($row1 = mysql_fetch_array($markers))
	{
		// echo 'Lat: '.$row1['rslat']; 
// 		echo 'Long: '.$row1['rslon'];
// 		echo 'Email: '.$row1['rsemail'];
// 		echo 'Name: '.$row1['rsname'];
// 		echo 'Desc: '.$row1['rsdesc'];
	}
	
	// $lat = $_REQUEST['lat'];
// 	$lng = $_REQUEST['lng'];
// 	if($lat != 51.464960 && $lng != -1.40625){
// 		$lat = $_POST['lat'];
// 		$lng = $_POST['lng'];
// 	}

How do you take a long number such as Math.PI and break it out into an array?
For example:
[3]
[.]
[1]
[4]
[1]
[5]
[9]

I suppose that because of the decimal you would have to convert it into a string first? It would be ideal if I could keep the number as a number without converting it to a string, but I'm not sure if that's possible.

Every thread I've found online so far seems to indicate that you need a delimiter between the string you want to split up - that you can't just put every character of a string into an array... but there must be a way.

I'm new to Javascript and to these forums. All suggestions welcome. Thanks.

hello,
i want to trim a word that too long..
example
"I don't know what i will dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo now"

how trim it with javascript function
so i will get
'I don't know what i will doooo... now"

any body help..

Regards,

hi,

in my code below, I need to change the line Code:

map.setCenter(new GLatLng(i[0], i[1]), 13);

to have the LAT and LONG from my database

therefore, I think maybe I need to open a database connection (which I think i am on the same page) and put some ASP in my JavaScript?!

Code:

var i = geoCodes.split(",");

		if (GBrowserIsCompatible()) {

				if(eval(document.getElementById("mapping"))) {
						
						var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("mapping"));
						map.setCenter(new GLatLng(i[0], i[1]), 13);
						map.addControl(new GSmallMapControl());
						map.addControl(new GMapTypeControl());

Hi

I have the following code which is created server side to convert postcodes from a database into coordinates.

I'm fairly sure there's something in the javascript which is preventing all the postcodes from the code being converted.

Does anyone have any ideas... This code has been taken from something else so could probably be tidied up a lot but every time I try it stops working.

Thanks

Hi All,
In javascript is it possible to convert a long number (as hex string) to a float number ?
Ex. 40 A0 00 D2 is 5.0001 and reverse

I know I can use math functions, then seperate out Sign/mantissa/exponent and then convert it in float, but their must be some easy alternative.

Can I use sprintf, is yes how can I use this?

Thansk for your help!

Regards
Max

   <p>
     <input id="curl" name="url" size="25"  class="url" value="URL" onfocus="if (this.value == 'URL') {this.value=''}" onblur="if(this.value == '') { this.value='URL'}" />

     <textarea id="ccomment" name="comment" cols="35" rows="5" class="required" onfocus="if (this.value == 'Comment') {this.value=''}" onblur="if(this.value == '') { this.value='Comment'}">Comment</textarea>
   </p>
   <p>
     <input class="submit" type="submit" value="Submit"/>
   </p>
 </fieldset>
 </form>
</body>

I know how to add custom validation methods for the required fields Name, Email, and Comment. But I just don't know how to validate the optional filed URL. I've searched everywhere to no avail!

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I'm trying to use long-polling for a chat program that I am developing. Currently, I have the following setup:

Code:

var lpOnComplete = function(response) {
	// Do success stuff
	lpStart();
}

var lpStart = function() {
	$.post('receive.php', {}, lpOnComplete, 'json');
};

$(document).ready(lpStart);

receive.php will run until it times out (30 seconds) or gets new information.

The problem is, I also need to post some data such as when a user updates their status or sends a message while the receive.php is running. However, I cannot post data until the receive.php request is finished processing. What is the best way to run 2 requests at the same time?

Help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,

I have long polling functionality working with Google Desktop Notifications.

http://blog.perplexedlabs.com/2009/0...-long-polling/

However if I have multiple tabs open then the Notification received from the server is duplicated on every tab.

Is there way to prevent this from happening as it should only appear once?

Thanks
