JavaScript - How To Transform 2 Similar Functions In Only One ?

Thread Closed

I would like to ask people's opinions as to which "offline" language is most similar to javascript? I don't program for a living, but I have been learning javascript in my spare time. I would now like to have a shot at making a desktop application, and I think it would help to choose one which is most similar, if at all possible, to javascript?

e.g. python, ruby, C#, visual basic ... I have no idea and haven't had much luck googling this

Thanks

Hi,

I need to allow some other websites to show certain portions of my website as though it were part of theirs. Simplest way would be in an iframe, but I would prefer to make the content available similar to the google map api where something like this is included in the header:-
Code:

<script src="http://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&amp;v=2&amp;sensor=true&amp;key=blahblahblah" 
	type="text/javascript">
</script>

and in the body something like this:-
Code:

<div id="map" style="width: 740px; height: 520px; margin: 5px 0px 20px 0px; padding: 5px; border: 3px solid #FFDD00;"></div>

So I am guessing that something in the file being called in the src of the script tag is replacing the div with id="map" with other contents.

Can someone give me a simple example of doing this? Thanks.

Hello all
i need to be able to make small peace of js code that the user can drag to is IE browser
and then invoke it on the page .

I have searched for a rotating image script to use at mrsgriffins.com and am currently using Tony Foster's Picture Cube slideshow downloaded from javascript.com. This is EXACTLY the effect I wanted, but it only works with IE since it uses MS-only code. Is there a similar script that is more universal?

Thanks for any help!

So what I'm actually refering to is something similar to facebooks sign up page. Where you have a form and you start typing the name of a high school or college and they automatically match what your typing in a drop down window. Here's an example pictu


Any help pointing me in the right direction would be outstanding. Also I am pretty sure this is javascript, so I figured this was the right section for it.

Thanks in Advance,
Ryan

Hi There,

I really need your help.

I am aware that there is no isDate() function for javascript, however, how could one check a date against a validator to ensure that the date entered is either returned true or false

the date format that I would like to check would consist of the dd/mm/yyyy

so essentially:

isDate("12/01/2012") would return as true

isDate("N/A") = would return as false

I have searched high and low and am counting on the experts on this forum for some major help.

A huge thanks in advance and I really appreciate everything.

Cheers,

Jay

I have created a slideshow before but I want to create a slideshow where a person clicks on a link and it goes to a certain picture which might have one or more links embedded into the picture something like this:

I have created a program that works great but sometimes it does not finish. It is the exact same as the one we see in this forum when you want to insert an image into a forum post. The program takes in a users image url through prompt, then regenerates the information within the textbox with [img] tags. The problem is I try to do this once and it will work great, but then I will try it again and fill out all of the information the exact same way and nothing happens. By nothing happens I mean after I hit enter the text box will remain empty with no regenerated code. But if I do a page refresh it works. That leads me to believe there is nothing wrong with my code b/c I do it once and get a sound result, then again and get nothing. Anyone have any experience with broken programs like this before or any words of advice?

PHP Code:
<script language="javascript">
  function imgGenerator(){
      var question=confirm("Share a Picture?");
      if (question==true){
      var obj=document.getElementById("mngl-board-post-input");
      var imgurl = prompt('To Share an image paste the image url here \nSupport .jpg .jpeg .gif .bmp and .png');
      if (imgurl == "" || imgurl == null) {return false;} 
      var txt=document.createTextNode("[a][img]"+imgurl+"[/img][/a]");
      obj.appendChild(txt);
      }
      else {}
  }
  </script> 


PHP Code:
<a href="javascript:void(0);"  onClick="imgGenerator();"><img src="http://instride.org/images/image.png" alt="Share an Image"  /></a> 

The code I will am including is far from finished, but some of what I do have works (the "submit" code does not work yet). I am able to prevent certain kinds of input including Shift-Ins pasting, but Ctrl-v pasting still works (and I do not want it to). Could you please tell/show me what code needs to be entered to my existing functions, or what new function I need to create (and call from my existing functions) to eliminate any kind of CtrlKey input?
Thanks in advance,
mitchellA

Hello Coding Forums,

I am working on building a watch app for the Pebble smartwatch that works in combination with a Bluetooth light bulb that could trigger on and off functionality. I have bits of the source code from a the same bulb project someone started from another site that is coded Java, so I imported them into cloud pebble their java library. I've been working on this since last year and I'm wondering what at all could I be doing wrong. I get the "cards" to show up, but as far as a connection to the bulbs I have not established that yet. I've attached my source code and if anyone has any time to give me some pointers that would be appreciated massively. I know that Hubble worked on a similar project, to control lighting from a pebble smartwatch so I know it can be done. I've even tested this code with other developers who are experienced and they are also wondering why the connection does not take place. It would be really neat if I got this to work.
Thank you everyone.

Is there a way to activate a function from another function? It has to be in the script tag, it can't be in the HTML section. Can I use something similar to this following code? If not, can anyone give me some help? I have tried to do it various ways, and have looked it up a few times, but to no avail. Can I use something similar to this following code? If not, can anyone give me some help?

if (condition)
{activate functionname();}

Any help I can get would be appreciated. Thanks a lot to anyone who can help.

Ok here is what I have so far, my ending part of my Call Function I think is ok.

for my main function. I think I misplaced the { and }

I will show you all the codes I have

for my main function

this is what I have


I think I did misplace something but I can not pin point where that one small things should be


Code:

unction showResults(race,name,party,votes)
	{ 					// script element to display the results of a particular race
var totalV = totalVotes(votes);
document.write("<h2>" + race + "</h2>");
document.write("<table cellspacing='0'>");
document.write("<tr>");
document.write("<th>Candidate</th>");
document.write("<th class ='num'>Votes</th>");
document.write("<th class='num'>%</th>");
document.write("</tr>");
	}
	
	
for (var i=0; i < name.length; i++)
{
document.write("<tr>");
document.write("<td>" name[i] + "(" + party[i] + ")</td>");
document.write("td class='num'>" + votes[i] + "</td>");
 
var percent=calcPercent(votes[i], totalV)
 
document.write("<td class='num'>(" + percent +"%)</td>");
 
createBar(party[i],percent)
document.write("</tr>");
}
document.write("</table>");
}
</script>

Just wondering if i misplaced any ; or { or } anywhere suggestions?


Here is my call function
Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
	
showResults(race[0],name1,party1,votes1);
showResults(race[1],name2,party2,votes2);
showResults(race[2],name3,party3,votes3);
showResults(race[3],name4,party4,votes4);
showResults(race[4],name5,party5,votes5);
  
</script>

I been going over this, I can not seem to figure out what { i might be missing?
Thanks

On this website: http://evancoleman.net/index.php
I really like on the top how the menu has like 5 or 6 icons, and when you hover over them it shows a bubble with the name in them. Does anybody know where I can find this script? Thanks.
