JavaScript - Please Explain What Makes This Work - Dropdown?
Hi - if you click on any of these radio boxes an effect happens whereby content is pushed down. Can you tell me what causes this?
http://www.emailcraft.com/order-now.html The reason I ask is because I am after this effect and am looking for someone to code it for me - but am not sure how to describe it - thanks a lot Similar TutorialsIs there such a thing as a dropdown menu that works in all browsers? (or at least all the commonly used ones)... Is JavaScript a good way to go? and if yes, are there any precoded templates available that are fairly straightforward to integrate and adapt for dropdowns?
Hi Coders, I have a Javascript on my credit card page which populates the elements of a dropdown field (The Year field). It just works with Internet Explorer and not Firefox. Here is the script: <script type="text/javascript"> <% Dim orderDateYearx orderDateYearx = cStr(Year(Date)) %> yy="<%=orderDateYearx%>"; yyyy=parseInt(yy); yyyy=yyyy var listDocUpload = document.getElementById("expDate2"); var optn = document.createElement("OPTION"); optn.value = yyyy; yyyy=yyyy+"" optn.text = yyyy.replace("20",""); listDocUpload.options.add(optn); yyyy=parseInt(yyyy)+1 var optn2 = document.createElement("OPTION"); optn2.value = yyyy; yyyy=yyyy+"" optn2.text = yyyy.replace("20",""); listDocUpload.options.add(optn2); yyyy=parseInt(yyyy)+1 var optn3 = document.createElement("OPTION"); optn3.value = yyyy; yyyy=yyyy+"" optn3.text = yyyy.replace("20",""); listDocUpload.options.add(optn3); </script> The dropdown field in Firefox is just blank. I mean no elements reside within it. (but its clickable) Any ideas why this dropdown field in Firefox is not going to be populated? Thank you for all the comments. wait... why am i here???
I have 2 news tickers that I want to show one after the other. They are both widgets (javascript) that I grabbed from the stated website. However to get one to run after the other I felt like I needed a setTimeout(). So I made one of them delayed (ticker8) but instead of JUST appearing after 5000 ms, it appears and EVERYTHING ELSE DISAPPEARS. I know that it's something silly I just can't figure out what it is. The HTML code is below. [CODE] <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <script LANGUAGE='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' SRC='http://www.theFinancials.com/syndicated/Free/EXk_EconomicStats_US.js'></script> </head> <body> <div id="ticker6"> <script LANGUAGE='JavaScript' type='text/javascript' SRC='http://www.theFinancials.com/syndicated/Free/EXk_Interest_TBills.js'></script> <script LANGUAGE='JavaScript' type='text/javascript'> document.writeln(EXk_Interest_TBills('0050201336','100%','C9C9C9','yes','6B6B6B','Arial',11,1,'37373 7')); </script> </div> <div id="ticker8"> <script type="text/javascript"> setTimeout("ticker8()", 5000); function ticker8() { <!--START theFinancials.com Content--> <!--copyright theFinancials.com - All Rights Reserved--> document.writeln(EXk_EconomicStats_US('0199604514','100%','C9C9C9','yes','6B6B6B','Arial',11,1,'3737 37')); <!--END theFinancials.com Content--> } </script> </div> </body> </html> [CODE] Would really appreciate some help with this one. Many thanks in advance I have created a popup for music on a site and works fine in firefox. when I pull the site up in IE8 it makes a noise and thats it. the site: http://www.brumarestate.com/ Code: var gmyWin=null; function popmusic(winURL, winName, winFeatures, winObj) { var theWin; // this will hold our opened window // first check to see if the window already exists if (winObj != null) { // the window has already been created, but did the user close it? // if so, then reopen it. Otherwise make it the active window. if (!winObj.closed) { winObj.focus(); } // otherwise fall through to the code below to re-open the window } // if we get here, then the window hasn't been created yet, or it // was closed by the user. theWin = window.open(winURL, winName, "resizable=0,location=0,status=0,scrollbars=0,width=190,height=25"); return theWin; } and of course onload in body tags <body onLoad="return popmusic('music/music.html')"> any idea's, thanks in advance Hi, I'm trying to integrate an address finder (http://www.craftyclicks.co.uk/) into my shopping cart (OsCommerce). I can get it to work but I need to add my own functionality. I'm not very experienced with JavaScript and my head has entered an infinite loop by now. The problem is that the address finder script can change the selected country in a drop-down list depending on the postcode entered by the user (using the onblur event handler). What I need it to do is to remove all other countries depending on the postcode. I can get it to remove all other countries but how do i return to the original list of countries when the postcode is changed again? Once all other counties are removed, the drop-down list will obviously only have one option left... I guess the question is also how does a function remember what it has done before, when it is called again? I have written this short test script as it is easier to work with than the craftyclicks oscommerce contribution: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>HTML Template</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <meta name="description" content="" /> <meta name="keywords" content="" /> <script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ function store(element) { // store values var cl = element; var text_list = new Array(); var value_list = new Array(); var length = cl.length; for (var foo=0; foo<length; foo++) { text_list[foo] = cl.options[foo].text; value_list[foo] = cl.options[foo].value; alert("text array " + foo + " " + text_list[foo]); alert("value array " + foo + " " + value_list[foo]); } populate(cl, text_list, value_list); } function populate(element, text, value) { // populate options with previously stored values var cl = element; var length = cl.length; cl.options.length=0; for (var bar=0; bar<length; bar++) { cl.options[bar]= new Option(text[bar], value[bar], false, false); } } function crafty_set_country(code) { var cl = document.getElementById('select'); store(cl); for (var i=0; i<cl.length; i++) { if (cl.options[i].value == code) { alert(cl.options[i].value + " found"); var value = cl.options[i].value; var text = cl.options[i].text; cl.options.length=0; cl.options[0]=new Option(text, value, true, true); /* for (var j=0; j<cl.length; j++) { alert("second loop " + cl.options[j].text); if (cl.options[i].value != code) { cl.options[j] } } */ } else { alert(cl.options[i].value); } } } //]]> </script> </head> <body> <form> <select id="select"> <option value="10">ten</option> <option value="20">twenty</option> <option value="30">thirty</option> <option value="40">fourty</option> <option value="50">fifty</option> <option value="60">sixty</option> </select> <input type="button" value="remove" name="button" onClick="crafty_set_country(50)"> <input type="button" value="repopulate" name="button" onClick="crafty_set_country(100)"> </form> </body> </html> Many thanks!

I've been playing with this workarouns for literally years, but I'm getting fed up with it. Can anyone here suggest a better way of dealing with the following conundrum - or at least clarify why it occurs? When I have an external stylesheet I can't access the properties assigned therein. I'll give an example - HTML/CSS/JS are all inseperate files - but everything is called into the HTML as you can see. HTML: Code: <head> <script type="text/javascript" src="js.js"></script> <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <div id="box" onclick="showWidth()"></div> <body> CSS (style.css) Code: #box { width: 200px; } Javascript (js.js) Code: function showWidth(){ var box = document.getElementById('box'); alert(box.style.width); } Now the alert fired by showWidth() is empty - meaning that javascript can't see the width of the div element 'box' Now, if I assign width as part of the style attribute of the div javascript thus: HTML: Code: <head> <script type="text/javascript" src="js.js"></script> <link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> </head> <body> <div id="box" onclick="showWidth()" style="width: 200px;"></div> <body> javascript can see this and the alert fired by showWidth() shows '200px'. So, I have two questions: 1. Why? 2. Is there a way of accessing these external style elements without having to define styles inline all the time? Cheers! Mike Hi all, First of all, I am not a student and this is not homework. Secondly, I've been programming in C, Motorola assembler, Intel assembler and even GWBasic for years. I recently (this year) got into Web / Javascript / PHP / HTML programming and I'm clawing up the learning curve. I know a fair amount, but have a long way to go. OK here's my problem: I've been trying to integrate a WYSIWYG editor (TinyMCE) into a bulletin board software package (PHPBB3). All is working well except for one big stumbling block that I've been battling for the past MONTH!...: I want to support the original BBCode system of PHPBB3 (mostly because of the ability for the admin to add custom BBCodes). So, what I need to do is this: (1) Select a range of text. (2) Either REPLACE it with "[tag]selection[/tag]" or else INSERT "[tag]" before and "[/tag]" after. (3) Lastly, the original selection must remain selected so that additional BBCodes can be wrapped without the need to re-select. The purpose of (3) is, say, the user clicks "bold" and "italic" and "underline".... all they should have to do is click those 3, not re-select each time. I've tried doing this: (1) get the selection range (2) get the selection text (3) delete the range contents (4) create two "contextual fragments" (one for the opening tag, the other for the closing tag). (5) create a <span> element containing the selection text (6) Insert it all into the range with range.insertNode() (7) finally select the new span element This seems to work fine, but Internet Explorer fails (it complains when I try to get the selection range). I just don't know what I'm doing wrong... and worse I'm not even sure if I'm attacking the problem the proper way. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! -- Roger <script type="text/javascript"> var myString = "zero one two three four"; var mySplitResult = myString.split(" "); for(i = 0; i < mySplitResult.length; i++){ document.write("<br /> Element " + i + " = " + mySplitResult[i]); } </script> "split" function splits the string whenever it encounters "space". But please explain me how the strings are stored in "mySplitResult". And can we use Arrays for this program? If so, can you code it. Thanks in advance! So today I learned about the ()'s for functions so I was like always studying and I cannot understand how this snippit works, here it is. Quote: var say = function(what) { what('say function'); } var hello = function (who) { alert('Hello '+who); // outputs "Hello say function" } say(hello); So the say(hello); is activating the function. The (hello) should be passed for (what) so the function(who) is now inside the other or something? Can someone please list steps like 1-10 of how this code ends up saying "Hello say function" at the end? thank you so much i got this code from this thread http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?t=241809(THanks to jmrker) and i was wondering if you could explain how it works(The creating textboxes and the randomization). Edit: SOrry i forgot to include the code Code: <!DOC HTML> <html> <head> <title> Untitled </title> <script type="text/javascript"> // From: http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?t=241809 var maxSeats = 341; var rndSeats = 10; function randOrd() { return (Math.round(Math.random())-0.5); } function createDisplay() { var seating = [];; var str = ''; for (var i=0; i<maxSeats; ++i) { seating.push(0); } for (var i=0; i<maxSeats; i++) { str += '<input type="text" size="1" id="s'+i+'" value="'+seating[i]+'">'; if ((i % 33) == 32) { str += '<br>'; } } document.getElementById('auditorium').innerHTML = str; } var sarr = []; function randomize() { for (var i=0; i<maxSeats; i++) { sarr[i] = i; } sarr.sort(randOrd); } var tptr; var ptr = 0; function pauseDisplay() { document.getElementById('s'+sarr[ptr]).value = 'x'; document.getElementById('s'+sarr[ptr]).style.backgroundColor = 'red'; if (ptr < (maxSeats-rndSeats)) { ptr++; tptr = setTimeout("pauseDisplay()",250); } } window.onload = function() { createDisplay(); randomize(); tptr = setTimeout("pauseDisplay()",250); } </script> </head> <body> <div id="auditorium"></div> </body> </html> hi, i would like to know what kind of mechanism does the bolded part trigger Code: G = function(a) { if (i !== a) { var b = i; i = a; for (a = 0; a < A.length; ++a) A[a](b) } } i dont want to know what the function does, just a wild guess, would it be the A array is replaced with functions names? R. Hi, I am hoping a JS expert might be able to explain this function. It is part of a larger programme. The program basically checks which profile the user selects and sets the html to display in certain colours. I am still trying to understand programming. The part I don't understand is the SetCookie("profile", i); What is this function telling the SetCookie function to do? Why does this work? Really grateful for any info.Thanks in advance. ************************************************* function updateProfile() { for (var i=0;i<document.form1.profile.length;i++) { if (document.form1.profile[i].checked) { SetCookie("profile", i); } } document.location="cookie3.html"; } So I had the orginial code just switch images, I was under the impression I could use "var clientData" to make an array. However this is not working out the way I had hoped. Any help or explanation, greatly appreciated. It's very sloppy now! Don't judge.
