JavaScript - Change Background Color In Javascript Using Arrays
Hi,
I am trying to work out a code where I can change the background colour of an HTML page via external JS page. Please note that I will be using different HTML pages with different colours so have to use Arrays. Here is what I have so far!!! here is my function, <script language="JavaScript"> var backColor = new Array(); backColor[0] = '#000000'; backColor[1] = '#111111; backColor[2] = '#222222'; backColor[3] = '#333333'; function changeBG(whichColor){ document.bgColor = backColor[whichColor]; } </script> ------------------------------------- What I need is to apply changeBG function to my HTML page using colour [0] Any help would be greatly appreciated! Similar TutorialsHi! New to JS... have been trying to rework this to call additional, independent sets of colors to cycle through (so it would loop thru a set of grays, a set of primary colors, etc). I would use perhaps a different function name in the HTML to call different sets of colors. If this is more complex than I think it is, I think 3 sets would be plenty. Would be hugely grateful for any help, thanks so much in advance. (demo link of script in current state at bottom) Code: <html><head><title></title> <script language=javascript> colors = ["#cacdca", "#b2b4b2", "#969896", "#7d7f7d", "#ffff00"]; cRGB = []; function toRGB(color){ var rgb = "rgb(" + parseInt(color.substring(1,3), 16) + ", " + parseInt(color.substring(3,5), 16) + ", " + parseInt(color.substring(5,7), 16) + ")"; return rgb; } for(var i=0; i<colors.length; i++){ cRGB[i] = toRGB(colors[i]); } function changeColor(target){ var swapper = navigator.appVersion.indexOf("MSIE")!=-1 ? toRGB(document.getElementById(target).style.backgroundColor) : document.getElementById(target).style.backgroundColor; var set = false; var xx; for(var i=0; i<cRGB.length; i++){ if(swapper == cRGB[i]){ if(((i+1)) >= cRGB.length){ xx = 0; }else{ xx = i+1; } document.getElementById(target).style.backgroundColor = colors[xx]; document.getElementById(target).style.backgroundImage.show; set = true; i=cRGB.length; } } set ? null : document.getElementById(target).style.backgroundColor = colors[1]; } </SCRIPT> </head> <body bgcolor="#333333"> <div> <div id="a1" onmouseover=changeColor(this.id); style="left: 120px; background-image: url(background1.png); width: 180px; background-repeat: no-repeat; position: relative; height: 80px; background-color: none"></div> <div id=a2 onmouseover=changeColor(this.id); style="left: 120px; background-image: url(background2.gif); width: 180px; background-repeat: no-repeat; position: relative; height: 80px; background-color: #666633"></div> <div id=a3 onmouseover=changeColor(this.id); style="left: 120px; background-image: url(background3.png); width: 180px; background-repeat: no-repeat; position: relative; height: 80px; background-color: #666633"></div></div> </body> </html> Demo: http://theclutch.com/rollover_color_..._bgndimage.htm Can this be done?

Here's my external javascript: Code: document.getElementById('maincontent').style.backgroundColor = "#660000"; Here's my external CSS Code: #maincontent { background-color: #999; } Here's my HTML: Code: <div id="container"> <div id="maincontent"> <p>blah blah blah</p> </div> </div> Nothing happens. What am I doing wrong? Hi, I'm faced with a problem trying to set background color under IE7. I have the following Javascript: Code: function showLayer793BKColor(id) { var txtObj = document.all(id); if (txtObj.style.display == 'none') { txtObj.style.display = '' txtObj.style.backgroundColor = 'grey'; } } function hideLayer793BKColor(id) { var txtObj = document.all(id); if ( txtObj.style.backgroundColor == 'grey' ) txtObj.style.display = 'none'; } These functions are used to show or hide div blocks. These blocks are, for example, specified in the following way: Code: <div id="l_gct5tekst" style="display:none"> <b>GCT 5. Eerste verkenning problematiek</b> and, for example, Code: <div id="l_Keuze" style="display:none"> <br/> <b>GCT 5</b> <br/> </div> The whole configuration works smoothly when using IE8. However, when using IE7 I get an error msg like "Invalid value for property". When I use the Color propert iso the BackgroundColor property I get no error anymore but of course I don't have a background color anymore then. In what way can I specify the use of a background color under IE7 ? Or is just not possible in one way or the other. Furthermore, what more differences between JS under IE7 and IE8 do I have to take into account ? Do I also have to rewrite my div block in some way (using some attribs ?) to cope with IE7 ? Thanks in advance, Diederick van Elst Hi , I have 5 or 6 textboxes and all of them are required ( have required field validators ) ..

Am using this to change the background color: Code: onMouseover="this.bgColor='#55FF55'"onMouseout="this.bgColor='#AEFFAE'" How and i add the "change pointer to hand" on this as well? Thanks Hi guys, Am creating a web page in which a user searches a customer using customer id. The results are then displayed in a table. This is working fine. In addition to this, I have created another form in which a user enters a value in a textbox. This value is then compared to the results obtained in the previous table.The values below should be shown in green and those above in red (identical values may be shown in amber). This should be acomplished using javascript. My code is as shown below: PHP 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> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Search Script</title> <script type="text/javascript"> function hallo(){ var value1=200 var inputVal = window.document.getElementById("one").value; //alert(negNum); if(inputVal > value1){ window.document.getElementById("color").style.color="red"; } else if(inputVal < value1) { window.document.getElementById("color").style.color="green"; } else if(inputVal == value1) { window.document.getElementById("color").style.color="#FF7E00"; } } </script> </head> <body> <form> Value1: <input type="text" name="one" id="one" ><br/> Value2: <input type="text" name="two" id="two" value="" onClick="hallo();"> <br/> Value3: <input type="text" name="three" id="$cell" value="test data"> </form> <?Php require_once("database.php"); $CustID=$_POST['CustomerID']; $query="SELECT c.*,r.Meter_No,r.January,r.February,r.March,r.April,r.May,r.June FROM customer AS c,readings AS r WHERE c.CustomerID=r.CustomerID AND c.CustomerID='".$CustID."'"; $result=mysql_query($query) ; //If no matching records are found in the database,the code below will display a customized error message $num=mysql_numrows($result)or die("No Matching Records Found In The Database!"); $fields_num = mysql_num_fields($result); echo "<h3>Historical Meter Readings</h3>"; echo "<table border='0'cellspacing='5' cellpadding='5' id ='three'><tr>"; // printing table headers for($i=0; $i<$fields_num; $i++) { $field = mysql_fetch_field($result); echo "<td >{$field->name}</td>"; } echo "</tr>\n"; // printing table rows while($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)) { echo "<tr id='color'>"; // $row is array... foreach( .. ) puts every element // of $row to $cell variable foreach($row as $cell) echo "<td align='center' <font face='Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif' >$cell</td>"; echo "</tr >\n"; } mysql_free_result($result); ?> </body> </html> Currently my javascript code changes the entire row in the table, which is not I desired. How do I edit this script so that only values in particular CELL in a row e.g CELL 5, is changed and not the entire row? Thank you. here is my problem i need to set the color of a text here is what i need to change Code: <div style="position:absolute; left:10px; top:100px; width:250px; text-align:center;"> <font color="lightgreen" size="6"><b>* Mileage *</b></font><b> <font color="black" size="6"><div id="bullet4">Not Specified</div></font><br></b> <font color="lightgreen" size="6"><b>* Gearbox *</b></font><b> <font color="black" size="6"><div id="bullet5">Not Specified</div></font><br></b> <font color="lightgreen" size="6"><b>* Engine size *</b></font><b> <font color="black" size="6"><div id="bullet6">Not Specified</div></font><br></b> <font color="lightgreen" size="6"><b>* Body style *</b></font><b> <font color="black" size="6"><div id="bullet7">Not Specified</div></font><br></b> </div> now i need to set the color from a text file server side so far i can set the contents of the div serverside but the customer needs to be able to change the color of the innerhtml . now i would like to store the color in a text file color.txt i can make the code to change the txt file myself inside the color.txt would be "lightgreen" or other color how would i go about this. so in basic terms i need to set the color of the text from a color.txt file sat next to the index.html Hi sorry if this is a very simple question but how do I change the font color for certain elements of this javascript code that the client sees on their brower? This is a count down script and I have made the code red that I am trying to change - any idea how to do this? Thanks v much!!!! <script type="text/javascript"> var today=new Date() //Enter the occasion's MONTH (1-12) and DAY (1-31): var theoccasion=new Date(today.getFullYear(), 03, 21) //Customize text to show before and on occasion.

Hello everybody! This is my first post at CodingForums! I'm currently designing a wordpress theme, and I require a bit of javascript for a hover effect. I'm using Wordpress Jquery + Jquery Color Animations plugin. The structu I use a div (class="post") as a container for the wordpress post, and within the "post" div, I have a span (class="title") which I use to display the title of the post. What I want to do is: when the user hovers over (OnMouseOver) "post" div: ".title" spans's background color fades from black to red. when the user hovers out (OnMouserOut) "post" div: ".title" spans's background color fades back to black. The Code Code: $j(document).ready(function(){ $j(".posts").hover(function(){ $j (".posts .title").animate({ backgroundColor: "#FF0062" }, 300); },function(){ $j(".posts .title").animate({ backgroundColor: "#231F20" }, 300); }); }); The Problem The code works, except when the user hovers over any "post" div, all "title" span change color. So my question is, how do I target the code to address ONLY the "title" span in the "post" div that is in hover state? Any help would be greatly appreciated, Cheers, Drew. Hi Im taking a course in web design and am working on a basic javascript page. I have a drop down box where you select a item and it opens a new window.

Hi, what I want to do is create a menu with rollover buttons but each button also changes the background image of a div. I've managed to change the colour of the div but not add an image there. I've added my code so you can have a look. Case 0 shows me attempting to change the background image. I must be doing something wrong. I've left the other cases as colours so you can see how I did that. I eventually want it all to be images. I'm creating a Joomla website (not sure if that makes a difference).

I know that adding Code: onclick="document.body.style.backgroundColor='#F3B90C'; to a div will change the body background colour to the above colour.. But what I was wondering was this..
