JavaScript - Syntax Issue Involving ","
So recently I ran some code through google's closure compiler and it combined multiple statements into one statement separated by a ','
I didn't really know what that accomplished, but I thought I would try it out a little and see the what happens... I have been using it (for now) to combine all variable declarations into a single statement and it has been working. I got an error today with the following Code: StartArr = [], EndArr = [], var range=0, dif = 0, totalTimeInSeconds = 0; Apparently it doesn't work when I use a throw in a local variable... So I'm thinking that I don't quite grasp what it's supposed to be doing It would seem that I can't use it to combine just any statements. I tried looking it up (not really knowing what it's called) and found the following http://javascriptweblog.wordpress.co...omma-operator/ on the subject I have come to the conclusion that I am using it to "separate members in a list" Code: //set 4 array elements var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4]; //create an object with 2 properties var obj = { a: 22, f: function() {return this.a*this.a} } //define 3 distinct variables var a = 1, b = 2, c = 3; //invoke a function passing 2 arguments Math.max(4, 7); Were the samples on that blog My questions are 1)What am I really doing when I combine these var declarations into one statement? 2)What are the advantages of the second and third examples from above over creating each property/variable in a separate statement? 3)Why did my statement fail when I added the local scope to range? And now I'm kinda wondering 4)What the heck is that " a: 22 " ?? is that the same as " this.a = 22 " ? Can I do the following: Code: var obj = { a: 22, f: function() {return this.a*this.a} } document.write(obj.a) //Output "22" 5)Why is "obj" declared as "var" and not "function" I guess their are many ways of writing the same thing in javascript, I'm just trying to get a better grasp here. Similar TutorialsI am trying to manipulate a an image gallery that functions well. Now, I have the ability to pull information from a user's preference pannel and need to place it in the an href="" // And other information in each of the "src" | "url" | "alt". Any ideas would be truly helpful. This is what I am working with at the moment and it doesn't work (obviously because it is adding code inside a span). Here is what I am starting from: [CODE] var title01Span = document.getElementById('title01Span'), //Finds the id that I want prefs = new gadgets.Prefs(), // Pulls from the user's preferences yourtitle01 = prefs.getString("title01"); // Pulls the correct string from those preferences title01Span.innerHTML = yourtitle01; // replaces the span.id with that text but I need to be able to do this in the src / href / url / etc. [CODE] Thank you so much! I seriously could use as much help as possible! Hi, Im working on my ad script and im having an issue with my text ad. The js seems to work fine for the <a tag up and down the finger dissappears, but if you move the pointer right the <a is active all the way. And im not sure why. temp file for testing test link removed, fixed the issue thanks move the pointer up and down and side to side and watch the pointer, up and down is fine but right is active. Why? Hello, recently I have been to many government websites where I have noticed that the programmer has used window.open() method in JavaScript to link to different pages instead of using <a> tags! I was just getting curious to know whether it is normal or has it been used due to security concerns(if any, I don't know)? Any comments? Hi all, I'm having a bit of a problem..

ANY help is GREATLY appreciated! Hello, I run a online gaming website, and I'm having problems with certain websites iframing our games. Actually I'm ok with iframing, as long as they include the banner ad located just beneath our games. But often times unscrupulous webmasters will iframe only the game, preventing us from generating any revenue from the banner ad (and costing us additional bandwidth charges). I'm hoping to find a way to detect the dimensions of the iframe, so that I may dynamically resize the game, in order to include the banner ad within the iframe. Does anybody know how to extract the "height" and "width" attribute values from an <iframe> tag sitting on a different site? Regards, Steve i am trying to make a comment editor with iframe, and want to trigger the change of content inside iframe, the following code cant work. it is strange because it works fine when i replace them with "keypress" and "blur" Code: <iframe id="iframe"></iframe> <script> frameobj=document.getElementById('iframe').contentWindow; // IE frameobj.attachEvent('onpropertychange', function(){alert();} ); //FireFox frameobj.addEventListener('input', function(){alert();} , false); </script> Hi guys, I have a JS calculator on my website which is basically a load of radio buttons that the user clicks and as they do so a price is calculated in their view. At the moment - the price box starts with a blank box but is essentially "0". Then, as the user select an option, the price appears and then starts to calculate when more than 1 is pressed. All I want to do is have the price start at "300" instead of a blank box or "0". Then the rest of the options calculate onto that. I have tried a variety of ways to achieve it and seem to be missing something! I am pretty new to JS although do have a basic understanding ..... clearly not enough to do this thou! lol Basically imagine 300 is the initial price. That only gets charged once ...

I need to do an input text validation which include opening parenthesis and closing parenthesis, what I need to validate is the opening parenthesis match with closing parenthesis.

I would like to warn the user to correct it before submit, but not quite sure how to do it with javascript. Please advice. Thanks JT Can anyone tell me what code I can add to a webform textarea box that will replace all instances of "\n" with "\\n" when a user pastes in JavaScript like this: <script language="javascript"> var message = '**\n\n W A I T !\n\n CLICK CANCEL\n TO STAY ON THE CURRENT PAGE.\n\n I HAVE SOMETHING FOR YOU!\n\n**'; var page = 'http://google.com'; </script> <script language="javascript" src="http://siteactor.com/test.js"></script> The form is on a .php page. The form posts via a .cgi script. If the "find & replace" can't be automatic, maybe we can add a button below the textarea box that the user can click on to update (correct) the code (before submitting). I am not a programmer... so any specifics you can give me will be much appreciated. Thank you.

At the moment all I managed to find out is that it will run the Program specified by the ProgID: Quote: This code starts the application creating the object (in this case, a Microsoft Excel worksheet). Once an object is created, you refer to it in code using the object variable you defined. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6958xykx.aspx Does it load the program like normal or does it load it within IE's memory? For example if the program crashes then why does IE crash. I would ask more questions but really I am sure there is more to it than simply loading the program. Thanks for any help in helping me get a better understanding. I need to change input type="text" to input type="password" via JavaScript Code: <form id="login" action="#" method="post"> <input id="username-field" type="text" name="username" title="Username" onmousedown="javascript:this.value=''; javascript:this.focus();" value="Username" tabindex="1" /> <input id="password-field" type="text" name="password" title="Password" onmousedown="javascript:this.value=''; javascript:this.type='password'; javascript:this.focus();" value="Password" tabindex="2" /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="sign in" tabindex="3" /> </form> This works in Firefox and Safari but not IE So then I tried this code Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function passit(ip){ var np=ip.cloneNode(true); np.type='password'; if(np.value!=ip.value) np.value=ip.value; ip.parentNode.replaceChild(np,ip); } </script> <form id="login" action="#" method="post"> <input id="username-field" type="text" name="username" title="Username" onmousedown="javascript:this.value=''; javascript:this.focus();" value="Username" tabindex="1" /> <input id="password-field" type="text" name="password" title="Password" onmousedown="javascript:this.value=''; passit(this.form[0]); javascript:this.focus();" value="Password" tabindex="2" /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="sign in" tabindex="3" /> </form> This does what I need but turns the username type to password field not the password box Please can somone help! I have a client that loves the ajax/lightbox concept. Wants to use it on practically everything. I have several forms with many fields that I'm trying to make easier to submit with JQuery post. If you aren't familiar, JQuery post looks like this- Code: $.post(url, {"key" : "value", "key2" : "value2"}, function(){}); And what I'm trying to do is loop through all of the inputs and build a string that I can submit easily like this. But I don't know how to take a string and turn it into this syntax. I don't really even understand this syntax since I only see it in objects and I've written objects a more old fashioned way I guess you can say. My code looks like this- Code: window.QuickSubmit = function(formId, finish) { frm = document.getElementById(formId); loc = frm.getAttribute("action"); eles = frm.elements; str = ""; for(i = 0; i < eles.length; i++) { fld = eles[i]; tag = fld.tagName; key = fld.getAttribute("name"); if(key == null) continue; if(tag == "SELECT") { value = fld.options[fld.selectedIndex].value; if(value == null) value = fld.options[fld.selectedIndex].text; } else { value = fld.getAttribute("value"); } str += key + ":" + value + ","; } str = str.substr(0, str.length-1); var d; $.post(loc, eval("{" + str + "}"), d=finish); return d; } I've tried different methods. My most resent was to use eval but I get an error when doing that- Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token : I'm building a t-shirt shop whose interface includes a gallery of designs in an IFrame. When the user clicks on a design, a dedicated page is loaded into the IFrame which shows all the available products associated with the design the user clicked. I've put each design's image and associated page as the first and second elements of a nested array, and am using a for loop to then load all the images into the page that's shown in the IFrame when the web-site loads. It's looking beautiful, but here's the rub I've been stuck on for two days now with no solution in sight... The array, "designImages", has 37 elements (ie. designImages[0]... designImages[36]). When I click on a design image on the page, any design image, the browser (all browsers, so I can't blame Microsoft for this one ), loads the page for design #36. I've tried all sorts of things, but still cannot tell if the issue is because the dynamically generated divs are being reassigned the value [36] after the for loop's executed, or if the div id's are okay but somehow the code is rooting for [36], the last element of the array anyway. I need someone's help in enabling a click on #4 to load the page for #4, etc, etc. Here's the code below. Thanks. Code: /* designImages[x][0] = the image source on the page; * designImages[x][1] = the destination url on clicking the image; */ var designImages = new Array(); designImages[0] = new Array ( "Assets/DesignImages/Img00 - CosmicCircle.png" , "ProductGalleries/Img00.html" , "Cosmic Circles" , "Mark Lavin");

} Hello there! I am completely new to these forums and to programming in general (however, I used to program some games, albeit not very good ones, on a version of BASIC that came with my Playstation 2 about 10 years ago hehe). I have a basic understanding of functions, loops, if/else/switch and an extremely basic understanding of objects/methods. I wanted to consolidate my knowledge by putting it to practical use so I have made a little text adventure game. At the moment it is horrendously non-user-friendly as it has just been me experimenting with functions, if/else statements etc. Anyway, below is my code and I have two specific questions regarding it (but general answers telling me how I could do things more efficiently OR telling me what I should consider studying would be very appreciate also :)). Firstly, I have a little inventory object up top and when the player picks up something in the game I change the inv item to "true" so they can use it later (it seemed logical!). I would really love to know how the user could type in "inv" and for their inventory to be shown back to them. i.e. How could I show only the "true" items of an object? I have tried coding this myself but I really am stumped for an answer. Secondly, you can see in the "north21" function within the "north2" function that I used a series of if/else statements instead of a switch. I would have much prefered to use a switch and then for the case of "go north" have an if/else statement to check if vineclear is true or not (so that they can pass through to the non-existent north3 room). Is this possible? You can use if/else statements within an if/else statement but it seemed when I tried doing that in a switch it didn't like it. I am running this script through an interpreter to play the "game". I understand that JS probably isn't the best for what I am trying to do, it was more just a "see what I can do" exercise more than anything. Thanks in advance for your help and please be nice to me, forums scare me generally :D testgame.txt I have to attach the code in a txt file as for some reason it wasn't displaying properly when I copied and pasted it here.

But if you must use console.log, then try this, to replace the code in italics: Code: return "You have these items in your inventory: " + list.join(","); This is my first post. I am reading "Javascript The Good Parts" ~ The Method Invocation Pattern Page 28 and tried this, var myObject= { value:0, increment:function(inc){ this.value+= typeof inc==="number" ? inc:1; } } myObject.increment(2); alert(myObject.value); but alert(myObject.value); is returning a value of "2", when it should return "3".
