JavaScript - Unit Conversion Case Switch Problem

Here is what i'm trying to do and I'm not sure if it will work with a switch, but i'd be better than writing a million if else statements.

Code:

var = c
var = z

switch (c)
{
case c > 1 && < 10:
z = 5;
break;
case c > 10 && < 20:
z = 15;
break;
default:
z = 0;
}

I think you see what I'm trying to do. I have a variable 'c' and it is input by the user and I want to make variable 'z' set according to what 'c' is. I know the above code doesn't work, but I'm not sure why. I've tried a million different things to try and get it to work, but it always just goes to default when it displays 'z'. Any help would be great. Thanks.

This has always puzzled me:

Code:

foo="bar";

switch(foo) {
	case "bar": {
		alert("a");
	}

	case 123: {
		alert("b");
	}
}

"a" is displayed because foo=="bar", but even if execution continues to the next block, surely "b" shouldn't be displayed because foo!=123?

Does anyone know what the logic behind this is?

hi everybody,

i'm using JSE client-side site search engine to search in my page..

and this is the code:

Code:

var cookies = document.cookie;
var p = cookies.indexOf("d=");

if (p != -1) {
	var st = p + 2;
	var en = cookies.indexOf(";", st);
	if (en == -1) {
		en = cookies.length;
	}
	var d = cookies.substring(st, en);
	d = unescape(d);
}
var od = d;
var m = 0;
if (d.charAt(0) == '"' && d.charAt(d.length - 1) == '"') {
	m = 1;
}

var r = new Array();
var co = 0;

if (m == 0) {
	var woin = new Array();
	var w = d.split(" ");
	for (var a = 0; a < w.length; a++) {
		woin[a] = 0;
		if (w[a].charAt(0) == '-') {
			woin[a] = 1;
		}
	}
	for (var a = 0; a < w.length; a++) {
		w[a] = w[a].replace(/^\-|^\+/gi, "");
	}
	a = 0;
	for (var c = 0; c < s.length; c++) {
		pa = 0;
		nh = 0;
		for (var i = 0; i < woin.length; i++) {
			if (woin[i] == 0) {
				nh++;
				var pat = new RegExp(w[i], "i");
				var rn = s[c].search(pat);
				if (rn >= 0) {
					pa++;
				} else {
					pa = 0;
				}
			}
			if (woin[i] == 1) {
				var pat = new RegExp(w[i], "i");
				var rn = s[c].search(pat);
				if (rn >= 0) {
					pa = 0;
				}
			}
		}
		if (pa == nh) {
			r[a] = s[c];
			a++;
		}
	}
	co = a;
}

if (m == 1) {
	d = d.replace(/"/gi, "");
	var a = 0;
	var pat = new RegExp(d, "i");
	for (var c = 0; c < s.length; c++) {
		var rn = s[c].search(pat);
		if (rn >= 0) {
			r[a] = s[c];
			a++;
		}
	}
	co = a;

}


function return_query() {
	document.jse_Form.d.value = od;
}

function num_jse() {
	document.write(co);
}

function out_jse() {
	if (co == 0) {
		document.write('Your search did not match any documents.<p>Make sure all keywords are spelt correctly.<br>Try different or more general keywords.');
		return;
	}
	for (var a = 0; a < r.length; a++) {
		var os = r[a].split("^");
		if (bold == 1 && m == 1) {
			var br = "<b>" + d + "</b>";
			os[2] = os[2].replace(pat, br);
		}
		if (include_num == 1) {
			document.write(a + 1, '. <a href="', os[1], '">', os[0], '</a><br>', os[2], '<p>');
		} else {
			document.write('<a href="', os[1], '">', os[0], '</a><br>', os[2], '<p>');
		}
	}

}

i got it from http://www.javascriptkit.com/script/...se/index.shtml



but, in turkish alphabet the uppercase of "i" is "İ" with a dot..
and the lowercase of "I" is "ı" without a dot..

when i use the code above, it doesn't find "TEFSİR" if the user type it in lowercase as "tefsir"..
also doesn't find "Bayraklı" if the user type it all in uppercase as "BAYRAKLI"

is there a way to make this work?

Greetings,

I am new to these forums, and am wrapping up a JavaScript class for the year.
I am in desperate need of help (which I usually obtain from my Instructor, but she is away from the office today) with my Tutorial 12, Case Problem 1 : New Perspectives JavaScript and AJAX 2nd Edition( by Patrick Carey). I am running xampp as my testing environment, and using Dreamweaver CS4 to write my code.

I've completed the code work, however I am having issues with Step 6 code.

6) Add the retrieveOrders() function. Within this function, do the following:
a. Create variables named user, pwd, sButton, and orderHistory to refrence the elements on the Web page with ID values of userID, pwd, submitButton, and orderhistory, respectively.

b. Add and event handler to the sButton object that runs when the button is clicked. Steps c through e should all be done within this event handler.

c . Create variables named userValue and pwdValue equal to the values entered into the user and pwd input boxes. respectively.

d. If userValue and pwdValue both are non-empty, create a request object named reqOrders. Using the get method, open the following URL with the request object /cgi-bin/wworders.pl?user=userValue&pwd=pwdValue
where userValue and pwdValue are the values of userValue and pwdValue variables, respectively.

e. Send the request and then wait for a complete and error-free response from the server. When the response arrives, store the text of the response in the orderHistory object on the Web page.

Here is the code from my html file and my .js file(s)
NOTE: I had to copy the addEvent function from wwlibrary.js to eliminate an error of addEvent not defined.

Hi all,

First of all thanks for everyone who responds to me. I appreciate it.

Here is my problem.


I have a HTML form containing two text box controls in it and a submit button. When a user enters information in those two textboxes and click on submit, the information is sent to a function in Javascript. In the javascript, the information from those textboxes is stored in a javascript variable.

The problem is as follows:

When I am inputting string text in the html text boxes and in the javascript when I am trying to print those values, it is giving me out an error saying NaN. However when i input integer values in the text boxes it is printing those numbers. Is there a conversion that I have to do for the string to be printed. I am new to Javascript and need your help. This is a basic code of Javascript. Below is the code that I have. Thanks in advance for your help.


<html>
<script type = "text/javascript">

function square(form)
{


var test = form.value1.value;
window.alert(+test);

var point = document.test.value1.value;
pointcon = point.toString();

window.alert("nice");
window.alert(+pointcon);

var point2 = eval(document.test.value2.value);

var point3 = point + point2;
alert(point3);

}

</script>



<head>
<body>
<form name = "test">
First name: <input type="text" name = "value1" value1 = ""/><br />
Last name: <input type="text" name = "value2" value2 = ""/>
<input type = "button" value = "Submit" onClick="square(this.form)"/>
</form>
</body>

Hello,

I get Result of expression 'document.ConverTable' [undefined] is not an object.

with the code below, and would like some help finding out what the problem is.
Thanks!

Code:

...
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
	function calc(val,factor,putin) { 
	if (val == "") {
		val = "0"
	}
	evalstr = "document.ConverTable."+putin+ ".value = "
	evalstr = evalstr + val + "*" + factor
	eval(evalstr)
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
...
Kg: <input size="10" onkeyup="calc(this.value,2.2046,'clbs')"> 

Pounds: <input name="clbs" size="10">
...
</body>

I have a function I call like this:
var theBase = getBase(percent);

then, the function:
function getBase(percent)
{
var base='';
switch (percent) {
case percent.indexOf("this") == 4:
base = "that"
break;
case percent.indexOf("thisOther") == 9:
base = "thatOther"
break;
}
return base;
}
However, even if percent.indexOf("this")==4 (or if any other case matches perfectly), it never enters that case and assigns a value to 'base'.
What am I doing wrong?

Hi all --

I realize this is probably pretty simple, but it's been a while since I did any Javascripting, and things have changed a great deal. My apologies if I sound a bit clueless.

I need to create a conversion tool. On one side of the tool are 4 form boxes. On the other, just text (not in form boxes). Under the covers, I have formulas for converting the numbers -- mostly basic math functions. So, the user types in numbers, clicks convert and the text changes.

For some reason, I'm having a hard time getting this to go. How can I get the results of these calculations to show up as text within a DIV tag and not inside a form element? There are lots of examples of getting these calculations to appear within form boxes, but not within DIVs. Any examples would be greatly appreciated.

This page is already using the Dojo toolkit for some other functionality, is this something I could leverage here to build my Javascript?

Thanks in advance for your patience.

I am trying to make a unit converter with two dropdown boxes, two textfields and a button. I want to enter a number into the first textfield, select a unit option, then select another appropriate unit option based on the first selection, press the button and get the result in the second textfield. What would be the best approach for this. So far I have:

<html>
<head>

<script type="text/javascript">

function convertUnit ()
{
// convert pound to kilogram
document.unitForm.toField.value = document.unitForm.fromField.value / 2.2;
// convert kilogram to pound
document.unitForm.toField.value = document.unitForm.fromField.value * 2.2;
// convert inch to centimeter
document.unitForm.toField.value = document.unitForm.fromField.value / 2.54;
// convert centimeter to inch
document.unitForm.toField.value = document.unitForm.fromField.value * 2.54;
}

</script>
</head>

<body style="background-color:lightgray">

<form action="" name="unitForm">

<input type="text" name="fromField" onfocus="this.form.fromField.value=''; style.background='lightyellow';" onblur="style.background='white';" />

<select name="fromList" >
<option value="" selected="selected">Unit</option>
<option id="fromPound" value="2.2">lb</option>
<option id="fromKilogram" value="1.0">kg</option>
<option id="fromInch" value="1.0">in</option>
<option id="fromCentimeter" value="2.54">cm</option>
</select>

<input type="button" value="Convert" onclick="convertUnit()" />

<input type="text" name="toField" readonly="readonly" />

<select name="toList">
<option value="" selected="selected">Unit</option>
<option name="toKilogram" id="toKilogram" value="1.0">kg</option>
<option name="toPound" id="toPound" value="2.2">lb</option>

How would you reffer to the areas with a javascript if statment or case?

Hi everyone, I've started a course on web design and I'm busy with a assignment on Javascript. I need to make a contact list which I'm nearly done with but I'm stuck with one bit, validating select lists, I want to do it using a case construct but I'm not sure how cause mine doesn't want to work. Will someone please help me?

Wrote this code out and it doesnt function correctly but I cannot see nefin wrong with it:

<script type="text/javascript">

var choice;
var startTag;
var endTag;
var validInput;
var listType;

choice = window.prompt("Select a list style:\n" + "1 (numbered), 2 (lettered), 3 (roman)", "1");

switch (choice)
{
case "1":
startTag = "<ol>";
endTag = "</ol>";
listType = "<h1>Numbered List</h1>";
break;

case "2":
startTag = "<ol style = \"list-style-type: upper-alpha\">";
endTag = "</ol>";
listType = "<h1>Lettered List</h1>";
break;

case "3":
startTag = "<ol style = \"list-style-type: upper-roman\">";
endTag = "</ol>";
listType = "<h1> Roman Numbered List</h1>";
break;

default:
validInput = false;
}

if ( validInput == true )
{
document.write(listType + startTag);

for (var i = 1; i <= 3; ++i)
document.write("<li>List Item " + i + " </li>" );

document.write(endTag);
}
else
document.write("Invalid choice: " + choice);

</script>

I am having trouble with the following:
Code:

<script language="javascript" >
function premium_calculator()
{
	var val = document.getElementById('user_input').value;	
	var state = document.getElementById('user_state').value;

alert ( state );
//                if (state=1) 
//                           alert ("QLD");
//               else 
//               if (state=2)
//                          alert ("NSW");
//              else
//                        alert ("ACT");
            

             switch (state) {
               case 1: alert ("QLD"); break:
               case 2: alert ("NSW"); break;
               case 3: alert ("ACT"); break;
             }


	document.getElementById('val_100_1').innerHTML =0;
	document.getElementById('val_250_1').innerHTML = 12;
	document.getElementById('val_500_1').innerHTML = 13;
	document.getElementById('val_1000_1').innerHTML = 14;

}

the above code produces nothing, no alert messages and no returned elements. can be seen here http://www.scubaservice.com.au/calculation-test-2.html

If I comment out the switch statement entirely and use the if statement; the first alert statement will produce a 1,2 or 3 depending on input but the second alert is always "QLD".

There are several calculations for each of the returned values and these will be different depending on the state selected. The basis for the calculations work on their own ie for 1 state. http://www.scubaservice.com.au/calculation-test.html

Any help to get this working would be apreciated.

Hi, am new to Java, Jquery and Java Script and I am finding my way through recently...

I have this HTML code

Code:

<html:text styleClass="ui-inputText" size="12" styleId="fromDate" property="fromDate" name="HomePageForm" readonly="readonly" />
<script>
initDatePicker("fromDate");
</script>

I want to perform this action using JS.
This will create a text-box with a calender affixed to it if used in Plain HTML...


This is the initdatepicker function

Code:

function initDatePicker(dateFieldId){
var format = '<%=ctx.getDateFormat()%>';
if (format == "yyyy-MM-dd"){
format= "yy-mm-dd";
}else if (format == "MM/dd/yyyy"){
format= "mm/dd/yy";
}else if (format == "dd-MMM-yyyy"){
format= "dd-M-yy"
}
$("#"+dateFieldId).datepicker({
showOn: 'button',
buttonImage: 'include/images/icons/calendar.png',
buttonImageOnly: true,
changeMonth: false,
changeYear: false,
buttonText: 'Select date' ,
dateFormat: format
});
}

I have done a few things, but, could not get the result I need...

Code:

cellIndex++;
var cellObj=$('#genericRules tr:eq('+index+') td:eq('+cellIndex+')');
cellObj.html('');
var table = document.getElementById("genericRules");
var rowElem = table.rows[index];
var cell = rowElem.insertCell(3);
var txtInp = getTextField(indexName,index,'8');
cell.appendChild(txtInp);
var dateImg = getImage(index);
cell.appendChild(dateImg);
cell.align="center";
initDatePicker(indexName + '['+index+'].'+name+'from');

function getTextField(indexName, index, size) { //, maxlength
  var txtInp = document.createElement('input');
  txtInp.setAttribute('type', 'text');
  txtInp.setAttribute('class', 'ui-inputText');
  txtInp.setAttribute('indexed', 'true');
  txtInp.setAttribute('name', indexName + '['+index+'].'+name+'from');
  txtInp.setAttribute('id', indexName + '['+index+'].'+name+'from');
  txtInp.setAttribute('size',size);
  txtInp.className = "ui-inputText";
  txtInp.name=indexName+'['+index+'].'+name;
  txtInp.indexed ='true';
  return txtInp;
}


function getImage(index){
var image = document.createElement("img");

image.src = "<%=request.getContextPath()%>/include/images/icons/calendar.png";

image.setAttribute('class', 'inputCalendar');
image.className = "inputCalendar";
image.name = "imgDatevalue"+index;
image.id = "imgDatevalue"+index;
return image;
	}

My application is now showing me the image but, am not able to get the calender when i click on it..

I need help on this thing...
Please try to provide me with soem intel...
