JavaScript - [help] Whacky Js Array Access Problems!
I have a multidimensional associative array in JS which contains category information for a navigation. It's actually set up through PHP, which pulls the info from a database then translates it into JS. I know it's set up correctly since I can see it in the source once the page is rendered.
However, accessing this array causes external JS code (from my Slimbox files) to be displayed in the nav. It's as if the array is set up right, but accessing the elements brings in Slimbox code as the elements. It's very strange. You can see the effect here. It's the secondary nav under Home, Featured Items, etc. Each token that is clickable is separated by an asterisk: http://www.mchonejewelry.com/test/newsite/community.php Notice the other page's navs work great! Try the jewelry nav on the Home page and the categories are set up fine. This is because other pages do not link to Slimbox. (And no, the site aint pretty because I wanted to get the hard stuff working before I work on the look) Any clue what's going on? I have no idea how this can be happening. I've heard of jQuery interfering with Slimbox and Lightbox, but my nav is not using jQuery! Similar TutorialsHello everybody, i need some help to resolve a problem that i am not seeing in code, no errors, but the result is the same , none : var a = new Array() for (var i = 0; i < k; i++) { a[i] = new Array(20) } for (var i = 0; i < k; i++) { for (j = 0; j < k; j++) { a[i][j] = 0 ; } } a[0][0] = 1 ; a[1][0] = 1 ; a[1][1] = 1; for ( i = 0; i < k; i++) { a[i][0] = 1; } for (var i = 2; i > k; i++) { while (a[i - 1][y + 1] != 0) { a[i][s] = a[i - 1][s - 1] + a[i - 1][s]; } s = s + 1 ; a[i][s] = 1 ; } for (i = 0; i < k; i++) { for (var j = 0; j > k; j++) { document.write(a[i][j]); } document.writeln(); } I've done in free pascal same thing (it was much easier) and i want it in javascript. So if someone knows how to resolve this , please help me to understand how. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal%27s_triangle I'm just fooling around trying to make a simple ChatterBot. And I'm using IE to make a simple database of Answers and Sentences. Problem is it's acting odd when it's spliting into an array. In Answer.txt I have "Hello, *UserName*." (Which I will use the replace() to change that later.) And in Sentence.txt I have.... Hello. I always use "Hello." as the message. It's suppose to compare the message with the sentences... Both lowercased and symbols removed. But it doesn't seem to work just right when coverting the Text file to array. Code: function SearchForAnswers(Message) {
var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var a, ForReading, file;
ForReading = 1;
file = fso.OpenTextFile("Sentence.txt", ForReading, false);
var AllSentences = file.ReadAll();
Sentences = AllSentences.split("\n");
file.Close();
var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var a, ForReading, file;
ForReading = 1;
file = fso.OpenTextFile("Answer.txt", ForReading, false);
var AllAnswers = file.ReadAll();
Answers = AllAnswers.split("\n");
file.Close();
var count = 0;
var found = -1;
var TheAnswer;
while (count < Sentences.length) {
var checksent = Sentences[count].toLowerCase();
var checkmess = Message.toLowerCase();
alert("Message",checksent.replace(/\W/i, "")+" "+checkmess.replace(/\W/i, "")+" Count:"+count+" "+found);
if (checksent.replace(/\W/i, "") == checkmess.replace(/\W/i, "")){
var found = count;
TheAnswer = Answers[count];
}
count = count + 1
}
if (found == -1) {
var prompted = prompt("Answer please:", "");
SaveSentence(Message);
SaveAnswer(prompted);
TheAnswer = prompted;
}
return TheAnswer;
}
Resolved: I am just going to import .js files into my page. And just edit the external .js files. I'm trying to display a random message by making an array through values in an XML file and then displaying the info on the page. i want to have it so that a new message is generated each time the button is clicked with no repeats. here is what i have Code: function initial()
{
var xmlDoc;
// First option for internet explorer 5 and 6, second option for firefox, internet explorer 7+
window.ActiveXObject ? xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM") : xmlDoc = document.implementation.createDocument("","",null);
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.load("quotes.xml");
// take the quote and author information from the xml file
var pQuotes = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName('quote');
var pAuthors = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName('author');
// create arrays
var aQuotes = new Array();
var aAuthors = new Array();
// put the quotes into the array
for (i=0; i<pQuotes.length; i++)
{
aQuotes.push(pQuotes[i].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
alert(pQuotes);
}
// put the authors into the array
for (i=0; i<pAuthors.length; i++)
{
aAuthors.push(nAuthors[i].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
}
// Loop through arrays and print their quotes and authors
for (var s in aQuote) {
alert(aQuotes[s]);
alert(aAuthors[s]);
}
}
var Q = aQuotes.length;
var quoteText = document.getElementById('aQuotes');
var authorText = document.getElementById('aAuthors');
var randomquote = Math.floor(Q * Math.random());
function quoter() {
var randomquote2 = randomquote;
while (randomquote == randomquote2)
{
randomquote = Math.floor(Q * Math.random());
}
document.getElementById('quoteText').innerHTML = aQuotes[randomquote];
document.getElementById('authorText').innerHTML = " - " +aAuthors[randomquote];

i'm sorting a 2d array by whatever column i specify. i know from using firebug that my sorting is working, but it's getting and displaying undefined for dataToInsert and inside of my table, but sortedArray winds up sorted correctly. it is said that the 'form' node can be accessed by document.forms.certainName but it fails on my browser(IE8) however for images, it works, that is, document.images.certainName returns a Node. is there bugs only on 'form' tag? btw, document.forms[0] works ... quite quirky... hi, i want to make an ftp access page using javascript i know it's possible using "ftp://" , but when i use this, the browser loads a window with the ftp folder i want a javascript to get ftp access and to give the commands itself any1 who knows how to get ftp access and ability to give file send/receive/... commands with javascript? i noticed today that if i type in my js file name in the url i get a download box, i have an htaccess on my site so this should not be happening, thats another issue.. my question is, is there a trick to creating a js file that cant be accessed in this manner, i was thinking about adding a php define statement as it comes from one source only, but i wanted to ask first to see if there was something on the js side i could do or is that strictly a htaccess or server side issue.. Sup gents. Excuse my tenaciously novice questions, but dont disparage just yet, im beginning to grasp how the mechanism behind the code words, in due part to your helpful suggestions Im in the last stages of the code. In this section i have added three methods, whose function is to direct access control over the ciphers i will be adding shortly. I firstly need for the methods to be working. What they do is, categorize the set of values inside the first array and give a set of names privileges. The three methods that deal with the access control are link(), secondgroup() and third group. Ive assigned that the first three names( link() ) can access all the ciphers, ie administrators, the next three names ( secondgroup() ) can only access the shift, permutation and vigenere ciphers and the rest ( thirdgroup() ) can access the other remaining ciphers. But ive added so much code at once that i overwhelmed myself and i now i cant figure out where ive gone wrong, be it in the syntax or the logic Code: <html>

Hi this is what I want to do. I have an online store and a need get fixed the machines from where my clients use my web site. what I'm doing right now is using an activeX to retrieve theirs OS code, HD serial number and other stuff and is working fine but since I'm using an ActiveX they are forced to use Internet Explorer and that's the big problem. my clients agree for me doing this check on their computers, actually they allow the activex to run, but they are requesting the posibility of using for example mozilla. thanks in advance and sorry about my english I'm just learning Hi all, Have problem from getting data of JavaScript Object ie. Associative Array. Code: var a, table1
a = new ActiveXObject("MyProgID"); a.GetDataFromExcel("C:\\Users\\myFolder\\Desktop\\test.xls","Sheet1")
a.Generate()
table1 = a.writeInTable();
Here writeInTable function returns a 2D Object array from DLL written in VB.Net. So I got the Object to table1. But from table1, I can't access the values but its there. table1 shows values as in this image(Image Attached.) Actually, I tried many ways like tab(0)(0) tab[0][0] tab["0"] tab.(0).(0) tab.[0].[0] Also with toArray(), (new VBArray(tab)).toArray().... I don't know what I am wrong..Can anyone help me on this? Thanks... Shanmugavel.C Hi, I want to access SQL database using javascript. I am passing 1 value to the java script but I want to pass that value further to the SQL query as an where clause parameter to retrieve data. If the value retrieves multiple or single data then how do i handle it. Is it possible to use dataset in javascript? Regards, Anthony. I'm trying to get the value of a radio button when clicked. I'm dynamically creating these radio buttons while populating a table like this: Code: var rad
for(blah blah blah){
insert array data into table...
insert array data into table...
insert array data into table...
rad = document.createElement('input');
rad.setAttribute('type', 'radio');
rad.setAttribute('name', 'options');
rad.setAttribute('value', id);
rad.onclick = function() { doSomething() };
cell.appendChild(rad);
}
If I'm in the doSomething function, how do I access the value or ID of the radio button? Thanks! How would you access information about various attributes of an element with javascript?
Hello everybody, I am new in this forum (and I'm also new in web coding, but not in programming)... This is the first problem I met: I can't understand how to acccess a property in this snippet: Code: function FGGE()
{
this.totalExternals = 0;
this.loadedExternals = 0;
this.loadImage = function(image)
{
image.onload = function()
{
alert("Loaded 1: "+this.loadedExternals+"/"+this.totalExternals);
};
alert("Loaded 2: "+this.loadedExternals+"/"+this.totalExternals);
};
}
Output is this: Loaded 1: NaN/undefined Loaded 2: 0/0 Could someone help me fixing "Loaded 1"? Thanks a lot I'm trying to write a little Greasemonkey script (in Firefox) to manipulate the top bar Google Translate produces when translating a site. For example: http://translate.google.com/translat.../www.google.de. Google has employed traditional HTML frames. According to many websites, I can use something like window.frames[0].contentDocument to access the first frame. However, this is refusing to work! I have been debugging this for hours. I have verified that I am indeed running the script from the top-level window (window.parent === window.top), and I am able to manipulate the frames themselves without a problem. When I try something like window.frames[0].contentDocument.URL, it returns as about:blank (I also get this with the other frame, i.e., frames[1]). I have tried several different methods of getting at that frame, including getElementsByTagName("frame")[0] (which works for manipulating the frame itself, but not for editing the frame's content through contentDocument). Here's my little script so far. I've included the first part so you can see for yourself that I'm definitely in the top-level window and using the right @include because it works. In this example, the URL returned is "about:blank" (again, I'm in Firefox). Code: // ==UserScript==
// @name GTranslate
// @include /^https?://translate\.google\.com/translate\?.*/
// ==/UserScript==
// change how the frame is displayed
var bar = document.getElementsByTagName("frame")[0];
bar.removeAttribute("noresize");
// manipulate the content inside the frame
var gt = bar.contentDocument;
alert(bar.URL);
First post! Hey all! So I've been having trouble figuring out how to make this page work. The page I'm working on has 3 frames: top/main/title frame, left frame, and right frame. What the page is supposed to be is like a shopping page. The left frame has all the items that you can select, while the right page has the "receipt" of your selected items. Now here's the problem: The left frame has an "Update Order" button on the bottom that updates the receipt on the right frame. However, I can't get the button to work. I'm not exactly sure how to write the code for the receipt frame (if there is any javascript code needed for that frame) or how to have the left frame send all that information to the right frame. I hope this all makes sense. Thanks for taking the time to read all that! hi'yall i want to setup a piece of code that allows me to drag text onto a div, and have that text be recorded into a javascript variable. the text is text brought in from anywhere; website, other website, a notepad text file, etc. basically any text so, im thinking i need to access the system's clipboard to get that info? thanks Hi, I'm a retired social worker with beginner skills in scripting a web page and need some suggestions. I create eLearning materials which are given away as a communty service to help people improve their health. A typical eLearning project has a few educational screens (using a Learner Management System-LMS-template) and an interactive exercise (on an external web page-htm or html-usually accessed by button which navigates to the exercise's URL). The interactive exercise should only be accessed from inside the eLearning lesson using the button, because it requires understanding of the way it works plus important cautions to assure proper use. I need to prevent the use of the URL outside of taking the lesson (for example, someone taking the lesson acquires the exercise's URL from their browser history and then may give this to others who access the exercise directly-without necessary knowledge and cautions). I tried document.referrer, using JavaScript. Using the referrer URL from inside the lesson and adding the JavaScript to the exercise's htm code worked OK in FF, but not in IE 8. In FF, if the referrer was not the correct single URL from inside the lesson, then it redirected; if the correct URL, the exercise appears. The JS code follows: Code: <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
var oksite = "http://www.mysite.com/xyz/courseidxxxxx/yyyy/zzz.html";
var redirect = "http://mysite.com/error.html";
if (document.referrer != oksite)
{
location.replace(redirect);
}
//-->
</script>
In IE 8, I was not able to get it to work. Using an alert, I noticed that the referrer in IE 8 was blank. My web hosting (GoDaddy) is a shared Windows hosting. I would have to upgrade from IIS6 to IIS7 to use PHP. Bigger challenge: I've never used PHP. If possible, I would prefer to use JS. But, I am open to any suggestion that will help. I am also wondering if part of the IE 8 issue is that I am using IE 8 X 64? I'm stuck and hope someone can suggest a way to solve this access issue. Thanks for your help. Kind Regards, saratogacoach Hi someone please let me know the way to access a smarty value with javascript? my smarty value is = {$value.url} i want to access it like Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function load()
{
document.location = '{$value.url}';
}
</script>
i tried with wrapping code with {literal} {/literal} but it isnt working. can some one correct this please sorry for bad english Thanks Hello, I am trying to set up this Javascript to work with my XML exported from Microsoft Access for support on an Intranet page. I borrowed from a tutorial code but I cant seem to figure out how to get the Javascript to recognize my values in the xml file. I believe my issue is related to the formatting of the xml file. The example is formatted like Code: <index> <name><![CDATA[ Paul ]]></name> <age><![CDATA[ 26 ]]></age> <height><![CDATA[ 6'0" ]]></height> </index> While my access file exports a little messy... Sadly, unless this can be changed.. I would love to just enter the code myself for each entry.. but I need it to be exportable and immediately updated to the Javascript search. Access exports like this. Code: <Employee_x0020_Database> <Employee_x0020_Number>200786</Employee_x0020_Number> <First_x0020_Name>Stacey</First_x0020_Name> <Middle_x0020_Name>Leanne</Middle_x0020_Name> <Last_x0020_Name>Evans</Last_x0020_Name> <Gender>F</Gender> <Date_x0020_of_x0020_Hire>2005-04-07T00:00:00</Date_x0020_of_x0020_Hire> <Position>Cashier</Position> </Employee_x0020_Database> Any advice on how I can get Javascript to recognize the values without a CDdata tag?
