JavaScript - Newbie Need Function Help
Sorry to ask what surely must be a newbie type question, but any help would be gratefully appreciated. The following script does not display the first item listed in the option menu and I can't for the life of me figure out why not.
Code: function goThere(ctrlName, ctrlFrame, ctrlTitle) {
var oDDL = window.document.getElementById(ctrlName);
//var oTitle = window.document.getElementById(ctrlTitle);
//var sTitle = oDDL[oDDL.selectedIndex].innerText || oDDL[oDDL.selectedIndex].textContent;
//oTitle.textContent = sTitle;
//oTitle.innerText = sTitle;
var sURL = oDDL[oDDL.selectedIndex].value;
window.document.getElementById(ctrlFrame).src = sURL;
window.document.getElementById('savePDF').href = sURL;
;
}
When the user first comes to the page, it should display "Kicker Sept10.pdf", instead it shows "Kicker Oct8.pdf" (except with firefox, then the initial display is black). Once the user clicks on the first item (Kicker Sept 10.pdf) the display is correct. Code: <select id="KickerSel" name="KickerSel" title="KickerEditions" onchange="goThere('KickerSel', 'KickerFrame', 'frameTitle')">
<option value="KickerEditions/Kicker Sept10.pdf">September 10th Edition</option>
<option value="KickerEditions/Kicker Sept24.pdf">September 24th Edition</option>
<option value="KickerEditions/Kicker Oct8.pdf">October 8th Edition</option>
<option value="KickerEditions/Kicker Oct22.pdf">October 22 Edition</option>
<option value="Kicker_Submit.htm">Guidelines For Submitting Articles</option>
</select>
<a id="savePDF" href="Kicker_page.htm" target="_blank" >Save</a>
<!--<br />
<h1 id="frameTitle" >The Kicker</h1>-->
<iframe id="KickerFrame" src="KickerEditions/Kicker 2011_10711.pdf" title="KickerEditions/Kicker 2011_10711.pdf" width="800" height="1034" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe></div>

Please let me know if more explanation is needed. Thanks robkir Similar TutorialsI found a simple script, and I'm trying to customize it just a hair to accept the ID, and I'm doing something wrong. Evidently, I'm completely useless at JS Code: There is <span id="id1234" style="visibility: hidden">NOT </span>hidden content here.
<script type="text/javascript">
function showIt(uniqueID) {
document.getElementById(uniqueID).style.visibility = "visible";
}
setTimeout("showIt(id1234)", 2000); // after 2 sec's
</script>
I want to be able to pass the ID in when I call the function. How would do that? Hi, New to JS. Have ordered some new books, but need to get somethings going in the mean time. What I wanted to do is to link to a new page having a date range input in the form of 6 text boxes, 2 sets of mm-dd-yy, from and to, where the upon loading the page box 1 of the from would auto focus and then auto tab and then post where php could take over on the server side. Setting up the form and the lay out, no problem. Auto focusing went just like expected using the following code, included because on the next step everything fell apart. [/CODE] <script type="text/javascript" > window.onload=function() { document.getElementById("input1").focus(); } </script> [/CODE] So then the wheels came off and in response, began to simplify what was trying to be done to find where the issues were. As far as I can get working is: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" >
window.onload=function() {
document.getElementById("input1").focus();
}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" >
function myFunc() {
alert("is this working");
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="input1" name="input1" type="text" onkeyup="myFunc()" maxlength="2" value="type a No." />
</body>
</html>
First issue with this: When I first get to the page everything is just as ordered. The focus is on the text box and the default value is "type a No." When I press a key onkeyup, I bring up the alert box with "is this working" in it. But when I refresh the page with the refresh button, after clicking the "ok" on the alert box, the character that was typed in is still displayed. If I use the link to the page, or the URL from the address bar, then the page reloads properly with the default value, "type a No". Question 1: How do you get the default textbox value using the refresh button as apposed to reloading the page using a link or from the address bar? Using Firefox 8.0 Second and more important at the moment: If I change the script to pass an argument to the function the script crashes. It does not pull up an alert box and freezes. My guess is that I'm doing something wrong on a concept level. NOTE: changed the default value of the text box to " ". Looked like to me there was an issue with the size specification and the default string length as you could only enter in a key stroke by highlighting the text and replacing it Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" >
window.onload=function() {
document.getElementById("input1").focus();
}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" >
function myFunc(awe) {
alert(awe);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="input1" name="input1" type="text" onkeyup="myFunc("123")" maxlength="2" value="" />
</body>
</html>
Question 2: can someone straighten me out with this? Hi, I am facing a problem in passing replace() function as an argument in user defined java function, can any one help me how to resolve it? intention is to pass a file path to my user defined function, but before passing the path i want to replace the character '\' to '\\' I am posting my javascript function he <a href="#" onclick="OpenDocPreview('<%# Eval("PATH")%>'.replace(/\\/g,"\\\\"), '<%# Eval("Filename")%>')"><%# Eval("DocTitle") %></a> function OpenDocPreview(url, docname) { alert('message from search base : ' + url + ' ' + docname); } thank you, I was working on a tutorial for some ajax uploading stuff and I ran across a new function syntax I don't recognize. I am not a Javascript pro, but I am not a newbie either. here is the code I am working on: Code: function handleFileSelect(e){
var files = e.target.files;
var output = [];
for(var i=0,f;f=files[i];i++){
if(f.type.match('image.*')){
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onload = (function(theFile){
return function(e){
var span = document.createElement('span');
span.innerHTML = ['<img class="thumb" src="',e.target.result,'" title="',theFile.nbame,'" />'].join('');
document.getElementById('list').insertBefore(span,null);
};
})(f);
reader.readAsDataURL(f);
}
}
document.getElementById('list').innerHTML = '<ul>'+output.join('')+'</ul>';
}
document.getElementById('files').addEventListener('change',handleFileSelect,false);
To be a little more clear, the code in question is that is the very middle. The syntax I don't understand is: Code: class.event = (function(arguments){
//stuff you put in a function...
})(more Arguments?);
I tried to customize a simple one to learn for myself and I wrote this: Code: var a = 'A';
var b = 'B';
test = (function(t){
alert(t);
alert(b);
})(b);
test(a);
The browser would alert 'B' and that's it. The console would tell me that 'test is not a function.' OK, so I am confused. The topmost code works. What I am wondering is what the syntax is called for creating a function (or event listener?) that way, and how it works. Although if I new what it was called I could just google how it works. <p> <script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[ var metrics = { "mm" : 1, "cm" : 10, "m" : 1000, "inch" : 25.4, "foot" : 304.8 }; function convert(num, dec){ var val = document.getElementById("fromVal").value; if(isNaN(val)){ return } function roundNumber(num, dec) { var result = Math.round( Math.round( num * Math.pow( 10, dec + 1 ) ) / Math.pow( 10, 1 ) ) / Math.pow(10,dec); return result; } document.getElementById("toVal").value = val * metrics[document.getElementById("fromSystem").value]/ metrics[document.getElementById("toSystem").value]; } var interval = null; function watchChanges(){ interval == null ? setInterval("convert()", 500) : clearInterval(interval); } // ]]></script> </p> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td><input id="fromVal" style="width: 100px;" onfocus="watchChanges()" onblur="watchChanges()" type="text" /><select id="fromSystem" onchange="convert()"> <option value="mm">millimeters</option> <option selected="selected" value="cm">centimeters</option> <option value="m">meters</option> <option value="foot">feet</option> <option value="inch">inches</option> </select></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="1" align="center">=</td> </tr> <tr> <td><input id="toVal" style="width: 100px;" type="text" disabled="disabled" /><select id="toSystem" onchange="convert()"> <option value="mm">millimeters</option> <option value="cm">centimeters</option> <option value="m">meters</option> <option selected="selected" value="foot">feet</option> <option value="inch">inches</option> </select></td> I found this script, and it works great: Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function disable(element)
{
var input = document.getElementById(element).getElementsByTagName("input");
for(var i = 0; i < input.length; i++)
{
input[i].setAttribute("disabled","true");
}
}
</script>
I tried to make the inverse by simply reversing the setAttribute() like so: Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function enable(element)
{
var input = document.getElementById(element).getElementsByTagName("input");
for(var i = 0; i < input.length; i++)
{
input[i].setAttribute("disabled","false");
}
}
</script>
But that didn't do it. Can someone show me why, and how to fix it? Here's the sample form which I'm trying to test it on: Code: <form>
<input type="radio" name="test" onclick="disable('D1')" /> disable<br/>
<input type="radio" name="test" onclick="enable('D1')" /> enable<br/>
<fieldset id="D1">
<input class="" type="text" value="test value1" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value2" /><br/>
<input class="" type="text" value="test value3" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value4" /><br/>
<input class="" type="text" value="test value5" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value6" /><br/>
</fieldset>
</form>
Edit: The ultimate goal which I'm working toward now (step by step =) is to have a form more like: Code: <form>
<input type="radio" name="test" onclick="disable('D1')" />
<fieldset id="D1">
<input class="" type="text" value="test value1" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value2" />
</fieldset>
<input type="radio" name="test" onclick="disable('D2')" />
<fieldset id="D2">
<input class="" type="text" value="test value3" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value4" />
</fieldset>
<input type="radio" name="test" onclick="disable('D3')" />
<fieldset id="D3">
<input class="" type="text" value="test value5" /><input class="" type="text" value="test value6" />
</fieldset>
</form>
And have the fieldsets enable and disable according the selection of the radio buttons. Also, the fieldsets (and their ID's) will be dynamically generated via PHP Thanks-a-bunch, ~ Mo Hi! I'm trying to toggle a class and one works and the other does not and I don't know why. I'm just getting my feet wet with jquery and javascript and I figured this was a pretty easy task to take on! Maybe. Link to the page: Franklin Township Soccer Club - Change Field Status My sad, sorry attempt =| Code: $( "li.open" ).click(function() {
$( this ).toggleClass( "closed" );
});
$( "li.closed" ).click(function() {
$( this ).toggleClass( "open" );
});
The first function works with open, so I figured I'd just use opposite on closed! Ha! I don't think so! In the end within those function there is an element in a form on that page it's hidden. I'd like to change the value from a 0 to 1 for vice versa. That' will be my next step. If you could give me a little nudge in the right direction I'd appreciate it! But first understanding why one works and the other does not, that is the primary mission! I do appreciate any help given! Dave Hi All, I'm trying to convert an anonymous function to a real function (nesting is getting out of hand), however the msg object becomes undefined after conversion. Here is the converted anonymous function which fails: https://gist.github.com/2587613 and here is the original anonymous function which works: https://gist.github.com/2587667 Any help would be greatly appriciated i keep getting error Call to undefined function codeandurl() below is my code PHP Code: <?php $value= strip_tags(get_field('link',$post)); $resultid=get_field('resultid',$post); codeandurl($resultid,$value); ?> <div id="result"></div> <script type="text/javascript"> function codeandurl(resultid,url){ $( "#result" ).text(resultid); $( "#result" ).dialog({ modal: true, buttons: { Ok: function() { $( this ).dialog( "close" ); } } }); window.open(url); return false; } </script> I'm trying to "progressively enhance" one of my surveys using javascript. Basically, I have rating scales that make use of radio buttons as each point on the scale. Each radio button occupies its own cell in a table. I wrote some functions that will highlight cells on mouseover in a color corresponding to its position on the scale (e.g. the lowest point is red, the midpoint is yellow, the highest point is green). When a radio button is clicked, the background of the button's cell and preceding cells in the same row will be colored accordingly. The functions are working well in FireFox and Chrome (I just have to add a few lines using the addEvent function to make it compatible with IE). The effect looks a lot nicer when I add a function that makes the visibility of the radio buttons hidden. However, I want to make sure that there is a fallback option in case the functions that color the cells don't work for whatever reason. I would not want the radio buttons hidden in this case. Is there a method whereby I can call the "hideRadiobuttons" function only if the other functions are successfully executed? Thank you in advance if someone can help. I have been banging my head against the wall for hours now. Here is the code: Code: for (var i = 0; i < BS_crm['activityTypes'].length; i++) {
var clickFunc = function(){ activityList.showForm( -1, {blockType:[""+BS_crm['activityTypes'][i]['id'], "0"]} ); };
var type = {
value: BS_crm['activityTypes'][i]['id'],
label: "Add New "+BS_crm['activityTypes'][i]['label'],
css: BS_crm['activityTypes'][i]['css']+"_16",
onClick: clickFunc
};
previewLinks.items.push( type );
}
Now, basically what I am doing here is running through one array to create an array of objects, that will be used to create links that will use whatever onClick function I pass it. The problem is that on the second line I need the BS_crm['activityTypes'][i]['id'] to be a value, not a reference. If that line was simply changed to: Code: var clickFunc = function(){ activityList.showForm( -1, {blockType:["3", "0"]} ); };
then everything would work as I need. How can I make this happen? I would really appreciate any help. Thank you again in advance. 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 Code: <html>

This is a very basic version of what I am trying to do. I have a dynamic list which is set in a table. When clicked, a function is run to set up a new list.. The reason I explain that, is that I need to keep it dynamic. Now for the problem: When I run this page, I have the button made right away, then when clicked it creates the new button. The new button should also run the function to create the new button again, but when I click it, I only receive "error on page". I don't know if there is a better way to go about this, but as for this route, I am stuck. Any help is greatly appreciated! -Shane How can I call a PHP Function inside a Javascript Function? This is what I have so far, but I don't think I'm doing it the right way. Any suggestions? PHP Code: <?php function phpQuery(){ $query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO mytable VALUES('','name','email')"); } ?> <script type="text/javascript"> function delayQueries() { timeoutID = window.setTimeout(doQueries, 2000); } function doQueries() { var runQuery = "<?php phpQuery(); ?>"; } </script> I made a mouseover event of a caption on a picture, when I hover the opacity of the background color of the hover and the text goes down. What I want is that when I hover over the image which the caption is floating on, the onmouseover event gets activite. For an imaginary example: Code: function unhighlight(x) {
x.style.backgroundColor="transparent"
}
Function ActivationFuction()
{
activate.function="unhighlight"
}
thanks Hi guys. Noob at Javascrip and html and this is semi-impossible to me currently. I am working on an assignment where I have 10 image files of 10 different countries. the instruction is to create a page that contains a table with 2 columns in a single row. In the first column, create a list of radio buttons that contains the names of the 10 countries. In the second column, display the flag of the country selected in an ?anchor? element. I am required to use the "onclick" event handler. I have been battling with this for hours, as this book I'm learning from makes assumptions as to the syntax I understand, without explaining it... Would someone please be as kind as to set me on the right path. I have included the sorry piece of code I came up with, that I gathered from other sites and tutorials. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>Flags</title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"/> </head> <body> <script type="text/javascript"> var cuba = "cuba.jpg"; var argentina="argentina.jpg"; </script> <form name="flagList" action="" method="get"> <p>Click on the country name to view its flag.</p> <p> <input type="radio" name="flag" onclick=document.flagList.flagJpg.value=cuba"/> Cuba<br/> <input type="radio" name="flag" onclick=document.flagList.flagJpg.value=argentina"/> Argentina<br/> </p> <p> <textarea name="flagJpg" cols="75" rows="20" style="background-color: blue; border: none; overflow :hidden; font: 10px tohoma; color:#3F3F3F:></textarea> </P> </form> </body> Hi, I am brand new to any sort of programming and am taking an HTML class this quarter. We just started javascript and I am working on an assignment where we make a number guessing game. I have been working on this code for a few days and simply cannot figure out what is wrong. It simply doesn't work and at times locks up my browser (Mozilla Firefox). I don't want anyone to write the code for me, I just need a push to begin to understand what I'm doing wrong. Here is what I have so far: <code> <script type="text/javascript"> function guessingGame(){ var secretNumber=Math.floor(Math.random()*100)+1; var numberOfGuesses=0; var guessNumber=parse.Int(document.getElementById('guessNumberValue').value); document.getElementById("guessNumber").value=guessNumber; while (guessNumber!=secretNumber) { if (guessNumber<secretNumber) document.EricaGuess.response.value="Number too low"; if (guessNumber>secretNumber) document.EricaGuess.response.value="Number too high"; if (guessNumber==secretNumber) document.EricaGuess.response.value="You guessed the correct number!";} numberOfGuesses++; document.EricaGuess.numberOfGuessesValue.value=numberOfGuesses; } </script> </head> <body> <form name="EricaGuess"> <div id="Welcome"> <h2> Welcome to Ericas Guessing Game</h2> <p> Enter a number between 1 and 100. See how quickly you can figure out the magic number</p> <input type="button" value="Guess" onclick="guessingGame()"/> <input type="button" value="Reset" onclick="reset"/> <input type="text" id="guessNumber" name="guessNumberValue"/> <input type="text" id="response" name="response" size="75"/> <input type="text" id="numberOfGuessesValue" name="numberOfGuessesValue"/> </code> This is minus the opening and closing tags. Like I said, I am not asking for anyone to code this for me, just some help to understand what the problems are (I'm sure there are many). Thanks for any help you can give. I have a js file to clean up a textarea when someone copies from a MS Word. I would like to be able to have this remove all the MS Word on submit rather than select a button in an editor.
