JavaScript - Help With Coding - In Desperate Need

A short summary of what I'm trying to do is this:
I manually charge credit cards for my bosses online business. Doing this requires me to manually enter information in from his websites back office in to a different browser, using "Navigate, Merchant Plus" (that's a site used for banking etc. and allows you to charge cards through it).

I'll be the first to admit I know nothing about coding, and I was just doodling with it trying to see if there's a way to automate this. If I can get the code, I can give it to my boss and he can enter it into the website and have a button you can press to transfer the information out of the fields required to charge the card on to the navigate websites fields where you place the information.

A sample of the code off of his website - one of the fields that needs to be transferred is this:

<td class="main"><input name="update_info_cc_expires" size="4" value="0412" onChange="updateOrdersField('cc_expires', encodeURIComponent(this.value))"></td>

The field it would need to go in to on the navigate is this:

<tr>
<td align="right" valign="top" width="43%">CVV Code:</td>
<td align="left" valign="top"><input type="text" id="x_Card_Code" name="x_Card_Code" size="8" maxlength="6" /></td>

</tr>
___________________________________________
So I'm unsure if this is the code needed to do what I'm talking about doing, but hopefully I've grabbed enough of the code for some pro to work with. If someone can tell me how to transfer just that one field in to the other, then I could apply it to the rest of the fields and save my boss the time on doing it, and make it a lot easier and less time consuming for me at work while I'm at it. Thanks and get back to me soon! I really appreciate anyone that takes the time to try to help. Let me know if I need to grab more code than what I did.

The code below is part of a working program which inserts "tentpay" and date paid. I'm trying to add the code which is below the comment line(//*). It does nothing? can someone look at it?

Code:

function calculate_paid(v)
{
 var rentdue = document.getElementById("rentdue");
 var prevbal = document.getElementById("prevbal");
 var misc = document.getElementById("misc");
 var late = document.getElementById("late");
 var amtpaid = document.getElementById("amtpaid");
 var tentpay = document.getElementById("tentpay");
 var hudpay = document.getElementById("hudpay");
 var datepaid = document.getElementById("datepaid");
 var late = document.getElementById("late");
 var dateNow = new Date();
 var dayNow = dateNow.getDate();
 var datePaid = (dateNow.getMonth()+1)+"/"+dateNow.getDate()+"/"+dateNow.getFullYear();
 switch(v)
 {
  case amtpaid:
   var tpay = amtpaid.value - hudpay.value;
   if(tpay >= 0){tentpay.value = tpay;}
   if(amtpaid.value > 0){datepaid.value = datePaid;}
   break;
  case tentpay:
   if(!hudpay.value || hudpay.value == " "){hudpay.value = 0;}
   if(!tentpay.value || tentpay.value == " "){tentpay.value = 0;tentpay.select();}
   amtpaid.value = parseInt(tentpay.value) + parseInt(hudpay.value);
   if(tentpay.value > 0){datepaid.value = datePaid;}
   break;
  case hudpay:
   if(!tentpay.value || tentpay.value == " "){tentpay.value = 0;}
   if(!hudpay.value || hudpay.value == " "){hudpay.value = 0;hudpay.select();}
   amtpaid.value = parseInt(tentpay.value) + parseInt(hudpay.value);
   if(hudpay.value > 0){datepaid.value = datePaid;}
   break;
//*
  case prevbal:
  var balance = parseInt(rentdue.value) + parseInt(prevbal.value) + parseInt(misc.value) - parseInt(hudpay.value);
  if(amtpaid.value < balance.value){
  prevbal.value = parseInt(balance.value) - parseInt(amtpaid.value);}
  if(dayNow.value > 5){late.value = "L";
   prevbal.value = prevbal.value + 10;}
  break;
  } 
     }

Right I have written some code very similar to this, and then found the similar code somewhere else, and what I want to do, is to be able to call a couple of different scripts into the one script, I have been at this since 9am uk time and I am bashing my head against a brick wall.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
function Msg1(){
  document.getElementById('myText').innerHTML = '<script src="page1.js" type="text/javascript"></script>';
}
function Msg2(){
  document.getElementById('myText').innerHTML = '<script src="page2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>';
}
</script>
<input type="button" onclick="Msg1()" value="Show Message 1" />
<input type="button"  onclick="Msg2()" value="Show Message 2" />
<p id="myText"></p>

As a personal note, I have asperger (a form of Autism) and ADHD, and I cant sleep until I can either get this to work, or someone who has more of an idea what I am trying to do tells me your not going to get it work, any help will be appreciated

if i wanted to create a code that takes the value of a textbox, multipliy it by itself what would i try to do?

In my javascript code I have to type in a number in a textbox then click a button. When the button is pressed a popup message will come up displaying the number I typed in the text box. I have no clue how to do it, could someone give me an example? Thanks.

P.S. I can't use a prompt.

I found this code online to create a like/send buttons for Facebook to put under my posts on my website. When the user clicks "Like" or "Send" I want the content tags from the website to be automatically input into the user's Facebook post: so the Facebook plug-in/post function will attach the picture and link to the site, and have the tags (already associated with the picture within my site's coding) automatically entered as text into the post. I'm not a programmer and thought this might be a good place to get some help. Does something like this already exist that can be altered/edited? I am not familiar with this, and I'm having difficulty trying to explain it.

Here is the code I have so far.


<!-- Facebook Like+Send script Start -->
<b:if cond="data:post.isFirstPost">
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));
</script>
</b:if>
<!-- Facebook Like+Send script End -->
<!-- Facebook Like+Send button Start -->
<div style='float:left;padding:5px 5px 5px 0;'>
<fb:like expr:href='data:post.url' font='' layout='standard' send='true' show_faces='false' width='450' colorscheme='light'></fb:like>
</div>
<!-- Facebook Like+Send button End -->

Hey, I am new to coding. I'm learning Java, but I'm wondering if that's the first language I should learn, or should I study something else first. Any help would be very appreciated. I would like to learn how to make software programs, design websites, and hopefully develop video games.

I had it working at school but im messing something up here, pretty much whats supposed to happen is I have a page full ofpictures, and when I hover over 1 all of them are supposed to go transparent except for the image highlighted, can anyone point out whats wrong? Also im using mozilla, i dont understand whats wrong, its something with the for statement because the function itself is working as it should.

Code:

function into(whoseCalling)
		{
		    document.getElementById(whoseCalling).style.borderStyle = "double";
			document.getElementById(whoseCalling).style.borderTopColor = "blue";
			document.getElementById(whoseCalling).style.borderBottomColor = "red";
			document.getElementById(whoseCalling).style.borderLeftColor = "yellow";
			document.getElementById(whoseCalling).style.borderRightColor = "green";
			document.getElementById(whoseCalling).style.borderWidth = "8px";
		
		for (i=0; i<30; i++)
		{
		  document.getElementById("img" +i).style.opacity = ".5";
		}
		    }

Okay, I'm actually just starting out Javascript so I thought you guys could hopefully help me with a bit of a newb question. I'm trying to start a comic website, and in the process of trying to make the "Previous" and "Next" buttons.

Code:

			<div id="content">
				<div id="control">
					<div id="prev" style="cursor:pointer" onclick="changeComic()">
						<h5>previous</h5>
					</div>
					<div id="next" style="cursor:pointer" onclick="comicChange()">
						<h5>next</h5>
					</div>
				</div>
				<img id="comic" src="/images/comics/page005.png" alt="there is no alt">
			</div>

I'm not sure what the Javascript should be really.
What I want is, everytime someone clicks the "Previous" button, the src of the img should change from 005 to 004, basically it's just subtracting a "1" from the img src, and the "Next" button does the opposite and adds a "1" to the img src.

I am trying to build a simple test/questionnaire where the user inputs answers into a form.

These answered are then checked with stored data in arrarys to see if they are correct or not.

At the end the score is totaled and given to the user

PROBLEM

im confused at to how to structure the code and also am aware that i am missing several coding functions ect e.g. i know that i need to use 'getelementbyid' somewhere.

ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED, THANK YOU

CODE

Code:

<html>
<script language="text/JavaScript">
function checkanswer()

{
if (q1==answer[0])
{
alert('Right well done u got it correct')
}
else
{
alert ('unlucky you got it wrong')
}

answer = new Arrary();
answer[0] = "blue";
answer[1] = "green";
answer[2] = "red";

</script>
<body>
<form action="qform">

question 1: <input type="text" id="q1" value="" /> <br />
question 2: <input type="text" id="q2" value="" /> <br />
question 3: <input type="text" id="q3" value="" /> <br />
<input type="submit" value="submit" />

</form>

I took a codeacademy course that had me program a basic search tool. I thought to attempt to fix the obvious major faults in the search code as sort of a self-evaluation of progress.

The faults we

1: Similar names(used as an example search query) of similar lengths are also picked up by the search engine.
2: Only one text box can be searched for the desired word.

I thought to fix this, and came up with the following code. I can't figure out why it isn't working, can anyone help me understand?

Also, would there be a way to add an if loop to the two long if statements so that this code would work with any length name, instead of having to be rewritten for each name of different length?

-JS-

/*jshint multistr:true */

text = "Within this block of text this program is designed to pick out only my name, Jacob, and avoid selecting the similar strings of jacob, Jason, and James, leaving only instances of my name, Jacob within both this block of text and the following contained in the text block within var searchText.";

var searchText = "Within this block of text this program is designed to pick out only my name, Jacob, and avoid selecting the similar strings of jacob, Jason, and James, leaving only instances of my name, Jacob within both this block of text and the one preceding contained in the text block above. Jacob Jacob";

var myName = "Jacob";
var hits = [];
var hits2 = [];
var hL = (hits.length)
var hL2 = (hits2.length)

for(var i = 0; i < text.length; i++) {if(text[i] === myName[0])
{for(var j = i; j < (myName.length + i); j++) {if(text[j] === myName[j - i]){hits2.push(text[j]);}
}
}
}
for(var i = 0; i < searchText.length; i++) {if(searchText[i] === myName[0])
{for(var j = i; j < (myName.length + i); j++) {if(searchText[j] === myName[j - i]){hits.push(searchText[j]);}
}
}
}
if (for(var k = 0; k < hits.length; k++) {if((k mod myName.length) === 0 && hits[k] !== hits[k mod myName.length]){hits[k] = "0"} else if((k mod myName.length) === 1 && hits[k] !== hits[k mod myName.length]){hits[k] = "0"} else if((k mod myName.length) === 2 && hits[k] !== hits[k mod myName.length]){hits[k] = "0"} else if((k mod myName.length) === 3 && hits[k] !== hits[k mod myName.length]){hits[k] = "0"} else ((k mod myName.length) === 4 && hits[k] !== hits[k mod myName.length]){hits[k] = "0"}
}
for(var z = hits.length - 1; z >= 0; z--) {
if(array[z] === 0) {
array.splice(z, 1);
}
}
if (for(var l = 0; l < hits2.length; l++) {if((l mod myName.length) === 0 && hits2[l] !== hits2[l mod myName.length]){hits2[l] = "0"} else if((l mod myName.length) === 1 && hits2[l] !== hits2[l mod myName.length]){hits2[l] = "0"} else if((l mod myName.length) === 2 && hits2[l] !== hits2[l mod myName.length]){hits2[l] = "0"} else if((l mod myName.length) === 3 && hits2[l] !== hits2[l mod myName.length]){hits2[l] = "0"} else ((l mod myName.length) === 4 && hits2[l] !== hits2[l mod myName.length]){hits2[l] = "0"}
}
for(var y = hits.length - 1; y >= 0; y--) {
if(array[y] === 0) {
array.splice(y, 1);
}
}

if (hits.length === 0) {Console.log("Your name wasn't found!");}
else {console.log(hits);
}

if (hits2.length === 0) {Console.log("Your name wasn't found!");}
else {console.log(hits);
}

Hi
My code is very very long. Is this ok? Is there anyway I can make it better without loosing out browsers being able to read the contents?

Hello everybody,

I have a nice search engine but its seems i can't put it twice on the same page:

Code:

<script language="JavaScript">

function startSearch(){
searchString = document.searchForm.searchText.value; 
if(searchString != ""){
searchEngine = document.searchForm.whichEngine.selectedIndex + 1;
finalSearchString = "";

if(searchEngine == 1){
finalSearchString = "http://www.altavista.digital.com/cgi-bin/query?pg=q&what=web&fmt=.&q=" + searchString;
}
if(searchEngine == 2){
finalSearchString = "http://av.yahoo.com/bin/query?p=" + searchString + "&hc=0&hs=0";
}
if(searchEngine == 3){
finalSearchString = "http://www.excite.com/search.gw?trace=a&search=" + searchString;
}
if(searchEngine == 4){
finalSearchString = "http://www.hotbot.com/?SW=web&SM=MC&MT=" + searchString + "&DC=10&DE=2&RG=NA&_v=2&act.search.x=89&act.search.y=7";
}
if(searchEngine == 5){
finalSearchString = "http://www.infoseek.com/Titles?qt=" + searchString + "&col=WW&sv=IS&lk=noframes&nh=10";
}
if(searchEngine == 6){
finalSearchString = "http://www.lycos.com/cgi-bin/pursuit?adv=%26adv%3B&cat=lycos&matchmode=and&query=" + searchString + "&x=45&y=11";
}
if(searchEngine == 7){
finalSearchString = "http://netfind.aol.com/search.gw?search=" + searchString + "&c=web&lk=excite_netfind_us&src=1";
}

location.href = finalSearchString;
}
}

Can someone tell me how to put the code twice in the html page without creating a conflict as a result of identical codes?
