JavaScript - Doc.geid Syntax?
Code:
<html> <head> <style> .errorWrapper {padding:0; margin:0; list-style-type:none; position:relative;} .errorBox {padding:5px; position:absolute; left:100px; top:100px; background-color:#BADA55; border-radius:5px; -moz-border-radius:5px; -webkit-border-radius:5px; box-shadow:2px 2px 2px #808080; -moz-box-shadow:2px 2px 2px #808080; -webkit-box-shadow:2px 2px 2px #808080;} li.errorBox {display:none;} </style> <script type="text/javascript" src="test.js"></script> </head> <body> <a href="#" onClick="show('test')">test</a> <ul class="errorWrapper"> <li id="test" class="errorBox">This should remain hidden until the link is clicked. Lorem ispum dolor sit amet. Placetne tibi? Mihi placet.</li> </ul> </body> <!-- Contents of test.js --> <!-- function show(boxName) {alert(boxName); document.getElementByID(boxName).style.display="block";} --> </html> wtf is wrong with this? I'm brand spanking new to js, so I don't even know how to begin to troubleshoot this. As far as syntax goes I haven't seen any glaring errors, which leads me to believe I'm trying to do something illegal? The alert box shows up, and the boxName variable contains the correct contents (the ID of the element I want to show), so I dunno what the problem is... Quick reproduction of the problem above. Similar TutorialsI'm a PHP guy and haven't used jQuery much. I have a script I found in a book and I am trying to get working and am having trouble. It's a drop down list. I am using it in place of an HTML select box, so I want to pass the value selected from the list along with the form in a hidden field. My question is how do I extract the value out of the JS function and get it into the hidden field? Code: $(document).ready(function() { createDropDown(); $(".dropdown dt a").click(function(event) { event.preventDefault(); var dropID = $(this).closest("dl").attr("id"); $("#" + dropID).find("ul").toggle(); }); $(document).bind('click', function(e) { var $clicked = $(e.target); if (! $clicked.parents().hasClass("dropdown")) $(".dropdown dd ul").hide(); }); $(".dropdown dd ul a").click(function() { var dl = $(this).closest("dl"); var dropID = dl.attr("id"); var text = $(this).html(); var source = dl.prev(); $("#" + dropID + " dt a").html(text); $("#" + dropID + " dd ul").hide(); source.val($(this).find("span.value").html()) }); }); function createDropDown() { var selects = $("select.dropdown_value"); var idCounter = 1; selects.each(function() { var dropID = "dropdown_" + idCounter; var source = $(this); var selected = source.find("option[selected]"); var options = $("option", source); source.after('<dl id="' + dropID + '" class="dropdown"></dl>'); $("#" + dropID).append('<dt><a href="#">' + selected.text() + '<span class="value">' + selected.val() + '</span></a></dt>'); $("#" + dropID).append('<dd><ul></ul></dd>'); options.each(function() { $("#" + dropID + " dd ul").append('<li><a href="#">' + $(this).text() + '<span class="value">' + $(this).val() + '</span></a></li>'); }); idCounter++; }); } I keep getting myself into trouble because I tend to use my Java reference when coding Javascript, and of course Javascript doesn't support all Java functions. I've just discovered that apparently Javascript doesn't support the trim() function. But curiously, if I code it as: mystring.trim() then Firefox will handle it without any errors. (I haven't actually checked to see if whitespace is removed from around the string.) But when I code it like this: trim(mystring) then firefox gives an error. I've also found a couple of situations where I've made syntax errors, and Firefox gives no error message. This makes debugging tricky, since the only resource I have available is Firefox's Error Console. Safari has no error reporting whatsoever, AFAIK. MSIE seems to find some errors that Firefox misses, but I don't have MSIE on my main computer, so it's a nuisance to use. As a hobbyist, I have no budget to buy Javascript development tools. Is there something free available that does a better job of finding errors? Can someone explain to me the differences between the following code snippets? Mainly i don't understand the purpose of using prototype and not sure if there is a functional difference between the syntax of declaring functions. Code: var myObj = function () { this._myInt = 1; } myObj.prototype = { myNewFunction: function() { this._myInt = 2; } } VERSUS Code: var myObj = function () { this._myInt = 1; function myNewFunction(){ this._myInt = 2; } } I just found this forum! I'm glad because I wanted to ask some javascript questions before. There was a question at work before at why one would use the following: if (a=='1') ... or if ('1'==a) ... Is there any kind of advantage of using one of the other? Thanks for any response! I'm learning to program, and am having some issues with the syntax of my "if" statement. I've looked online but still can't get it to work. Here's the code: Code: function checks(){ if(document.myform.checkbox.checked == true){ window.open("http://www.espn.html", "mywindow"); } else{ document.write("hello world"); } } //document.write("hello world");} I know the function is being called properly because when I hit "submit" on the form the document.write("hello world"); statement prints on a new page. But for some reason when I call the function and that part is commented out, nothing happens. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I tried looking online but can't figure anything out. Thanks in advance. i get this error when ever i try to process the form: There was a SyntaxError: Unexpected token < error due to an parsererror condition. Javacsipt/jquery: $(document).ready(function(){ $("#slide").click(function(){ $("#inner-wrapper").slideToggle(); }); $('form #response').hide(); $('#submit').click(function(e){ e.preventDefault(); var valid = ''; var required = ' is required'; var name = $('form #name').val(); var email = $('form #email').val(); var fname = $('form #fname').val(); var femail = $('form #femail').val(); var message = $('form #message').val(); var honeypot = $('form #honeypot').val(); var humancheck = $('form #humancheck').val(); //Error checking if (name == '' || name.length <=2) { valid = '<p>Your name' + required + '</p>'; } if (!email.match(/^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,3})$/)) { valid += '<p>Your email' + required + '</p>'; } if (fname == '' || fname.length <=2) { valid += '<p>Your friend\'s name' + required + '</p>'; } if (!femail.match(/^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,3})$/)) { valid += '<p>Your friend\'s email' + required + '</p>'; } if (message == '' || message.length <=5) { valid += '<p>A message' + required + '</p>'; } if (honeypot != 'http://') { valid += '<p><center>Spambots are not allowed.</center></p>'; } if (humancheck != '') { valid += '<p><center>A human user' + required + '</center></p>'; } if (valid != '') { $('form #response').removeClass().addClass('error') .html('<strong>Please correct the errors below.</strong>' + valid).fadeIn('2000'); }else { $('form #response').removeClass().addClass('processing').html('<center>Working...</center>').fadeIn('2000'); var formData = $('form').serialize(); submitForm(formData); } }); }); function submitForm(formData) { $.ajax({ type: 'POST', url: 'emailfriend.php', data: formData, dataType: 'json', cache: false, timeout: 7000, success: function(data) { $('form #response').removeClass().addClass((data.error === true) ?

If so How? Sorry for such a noob question. Thanks in advance for any help Hi all, I have some card/images and would like to have the first one displayed.Which i can do. Then when I mouse click on the card/image it goes to another image for say 2 secs, then with out clicking goes back to the orignal card. I have played with the syntax for ages and also looked on the net and cannot get it right. This is what I have so far. Code: <html> <head> <script> var back = new Image(); back.src = "back.gif";// preloads the image. var ace = new Image(); ace.src = "0.gif"; //Preload the Image var two = new Image(); two.src = "1.gif";// preloads the image. var three = new Image(); three.src = "2.gif";// preloads the image. var four = new Image(); four.src = "3.gif";// preloads the image. var five = new Image(); five.src = "4.gif";// preloads the image. </script> </head> <body> <img name="img0"> <img name="img1"> // what is this for? <script> document.images['img0'].src = back.src;//displays image /*How do I have one card diplayed then mouseclick on that one card and another card will display for 2 secs then the card will go back to original card. */ </script> </body> </html> Any ideas ? Thanks heaps Shayne Code: out += (out ? rogueArray[14] : rogueArray[13]) + arrayItem + ((vanWilder[arrayItem] !== null) ? = + encodeURIComponent(vanWilder[arrayItem]) : rogueArray[13]); There is supposedly a syntax error here on the line up until [arrayItem in Dreamweaver. Any help? On this page http://jimpix.co.uk/ecards/262-no-words.html I get this Javascript error in IE6: Code: Line: 5 Character: 1 Code: 0 Error Message: Syntax error URL: http://jimpix.co.uk/ecards/262-no-words.html I'm using the DebugBar add in for IE (http://www.debugbar.com/) The error message in DebugBar is this: http://jimpix.co.uk/junk/error.png And the view-source of the page is he http://jimpix.co.uk/junk/source-code.png I don't get the error in Firefox 3 or IE7. I can't work out how to fix it. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks! Can someone point where i'm going wrong? I want to evaluate the values of 'miles' to be >=0 and 'putime' to between 0 and 24 only. Code: <script type = "text/javascript"> function TaxiFare() { // calculates taxi fare based upon miles travelled // and the hour of the day in military time (0-23). var baseFare = 2.50; var costPerMile = 2.00; var nightSurcharge = 0.50; // 8pm to 6am, every night var milesTravelled = Number(document.getElementById("miles").value); var pickupTime = Number(document.getElementById("putime").value); var cost = baseFare + (costPerMile * milesTravelled); // add the nightSurcharge to the cost if it is after // 10pm or before 6am if (pickupTime >= 22 || pickupTime < 6) { cost += nightSurcharge; } if((document.getElementById('miles').value>=0)&&(document.getElementById('putime').value>=0||<=24) { alert("Your taxi fare is $" + cost.toFixed(2)); } else{return 0;} } </script> Is there a particular term for writing functions in this manner? I'm interested in doing some reading up on it but don't quite know what to search for. Code: (function(msg){ document.write(msg); })("What's that smell?"); why does my javascript function run right away when the page loads? but not wen the button is clicked? its working the opposite to how i want it to i didnt include the other html tags to help focus on this. Btw im tryna avoid the method of having the onclick="funct()" method which would be written in the button tag. Thank you. <body> <button id="mybutton">Click me</button> </body> <script type = "text/javascript"> var b = document.getElementById("mybutton"); b.onclick = funct() function funct() { alert("Thanks for clicking me!"); } </script> I'm trying to implement a syntax highlighter in my program, but jQuery 1.2.6 is giving me problems. This line specifically: Code: parse: [/^(\[) *@?([\w-]+) *([!*$^~=]*) *('?"?)(.*?)\4 *\]/, /^(:)([\w-]+)\("?'?(.*?(\(.*?\))?[^(]*?)"?'?\)/, new RegExp("^([:.#]*)(" + chars + "+)")], it messes with every javascript editor's syntax highlighting I've tried so far too. It looks like they're declaring a regex pattern without a delimiter. Can anybody make sense of this line? When using anonymous wrappers (I guess they are called like that), what does "()" part do at the end of the stack? An example: Code: ( function() {} ) () //Here! What does it do and how can we use it? I am just learning the basics and am trying to figure out timing with setTimeout() Code: <script type="text/javascript"> document.write("<p>" + Date() + "</p>"); setTimeout("document.write('Hello There World');", 2000); setTimeout("document.write("<p>" + Date() + "</p>");", 2000); </script> the 1st document.write works and the 1st setTimeout() works, but then I add the fourth line and the page will not load. Why does it not like my 4th line : "setTimeout("document.write("<p>" + Date() + "</p>");", 2000);"? Hi All, Experienced in Applescript, but recently switched to JavaScript, I am having problems with the syntax for Regexp. Basically part of a longer In-Design script needs to search by word for (1-2-3). where the numbers changed each time. Below is the attempt to achieve this, any help gratefully appreciated. Code: for(z=0; z<newTextFrame.words.length; z++) { var theTips=/(\*-\*-\*)./; if(newTextFrame.paragraphs.item(0).words.item(z).contents==theTips) { alert(z); newTextFrame.paragraphs.item(0).words.itemByRange(z,z).appliedCharacterStyle=charStyle1; } } Hi, Im currently building my first website, I'm trying to use a JQuery Slider effect for a top banner, however I seem to be getting a syntax error after the javascript. Any ideas? Ive attached a screenshot of the code Thanks Simon I have an alert I'm using over in Salesforce to remind sales reps to use a special terms document when quoting. Problem is, the alert is going off for ALL accounts, not just "Account1" and "Account2". Is this line incorrect in syntax or something? if ((isstatus == "Proposal/Price Quote") && (acct == "Account1", "Account2")) Thanks all. This forum has been very helpful for me in the past so this was my first stop!
