JavaScript - Question On Prompts
Is there a way to create a prompt in javascript where the prompt doesn't actually pop-up and is instead built into the program/site instead??
Similar TutorialsI am building a website and I need to gather some information but I feel that prompts are unappealing. Maybe something like a form but it defines whatever is typed in as a variable?
Ok im doing a basic javascript program as i am just starting out.... I believe you will understand what I am trying to do, basically holiday company they have an initial price that the buyer puts in, then asks for age of the person if person <=5 it's free if person <= 15 its initialprice/2 (or I wanted it as a seperate var not sure if thats the best way to go about it though..) else initial price.... the code i have so far for it is.... Code: var initialPrice;
var age;
var halfPrice;
initialPrice =
window.prompt('Please enter the advertised price of the holiday in pounds', '');
initialPrice = parseFloat(initialPrice);
age =
window.prompt('Please enter age of holidaymaker', '');
age = parseFloat(age);
halfPrice = initialPrice/2;
if (age <= 5}
{
document.write('Your holiday is Free');
}
else
if (age < 15)
{
document.write('Your holdiday is ' + halfPrice + '');
}
else
{
document.write('Your holiday is ' + initialPrice + '');
}

Really have no idea why i't wont run.. it's really bugging me as I believe it will be something simple and I just need to know what so I remeber it for next time, any help is MAJORLY appreciated and the sooner the better :) Thanks James (yes i saw the one asking about the same question pretty much a few posts down haha) basically I have some programming doing delphi and pascal and im mixing them up with my very very limited javascript... hence why I think i messed something up.... everything seems to be ok ... but the prompts wont come up or anything.... all the var's match up so what am I doing wrong :( also couple of rules.... im assuming the people inputting are using valid numbers (dont need a check) no need to check for sensible values either dont worry about decimal places (basically the stuff like it checking is for a different part of the assignment that I am doing which i can do by myself if i get this actually working...) I was asked to redo a menu for this site: http://www.listlabs.com/index.php It was originally an imaged based menu, but they wanted it all changed to css/html. I used quickmenu and it used JS to produce the arrows at the top of each menu item. Now to my question... I'm trying to program the menu items to stay active when on the current page. At first, it looks correct, but if you hover back over the menu, it changes back to the inactive state. Any help would be great! Thanks. I'm not sure if this is the correct forum or not, but here goes. I want to make a very simple XUL document. Just a simple basic window to be opened up, but, i want the XUL to Load and Render an HTML File. I'm not sure about what function(s) to call to achieve this, can anyone give me any ideas to go on? here's what i have so far use my JavaScript Function called LoadFromDisk(FileName), if the file is there or the load is sucessfull, it can be stored as a variable. And then i have a single Division in the XUL document called RenderWindow. From there i set the innerHTML of the RenderWindow to the data that was loaded from the disk. Is this the right way? thanks Could someone please take a look at my code? It's a simple quiz with one multiple choice question and one fill in the blank. When the user clicks on 'submit' I tried to show some kind of response with correct/incorrect images next to the question. It works with the multiple choice question, but not with the fill in the blank. How can I get the fill in the blank question to work. It always shows the answer as being wrong. Thank you.

I am really not understanding and in my book it only give me a page to read about the animation. I am still new to it. Thanks for looking You are given a mathematical expression containing integers and the basic operations: *,+,-, /. Find the number of unique results that can be obtained by parenthesizing the expression differently. i.e., by changing the order of evaluation of the operations. Note that all operations are integer operations. For example, if the input is 2 ∗ 3 + 6/2, your output should be 4. Plzz help me with this qs......... hi guys, l am trying to learn javascript, although certain things seem to be easy to understand, l still have plenty of questions. so l was reading some articles on w3schools and l was an interesting table about operations. http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/...kesnosense.png if you check above's table you will see at the increment section as well decrement , you will see that in some cases the x and y dont have the same value, now l was just wondering, what is the difference between x=++y and x=y++ ? Hi all, I am trying to do a simple "animation" of the background color of a button. I want it to do 10 different colors in the course of 1 second. I have a loop like this (pseudo code): Code: var e = "the button element";
var c = 10;
while (c--) {
setTimeout(function(){ e.style.backgroundColor=(random color); }, (c * 100));
}
I expect that 10 instances of "setTimeout" would be created, each one timing out 0.1 seconds later than the previous one, giving me an "animation" of 10 different colors over the course of 1 second. Strangely, it doesn't work. All it does is WAIT one second, then set the background to the LAST color. What am I doing wrong? I can't see it. Thanks! -- Roger Edit: I also tried to do the loop forward instead... no difference. I would like to type something into my textbox and then press ENTER, it will execute a function. I tried onFocus, onChange and onBlur but it doesn't do what I want it to. Here's an example I use for onChange. Code: Application: <input type="text" onchange="execProg(0);"> Any comments or suggestions is greatly So, I've built this navigation bar so far and I'm curious if it's even possible to achieve what I'm thinking. Currently, when you hover over each of the links they drop down (padding is increased). Now, what I'm curious in doing is if you hover over say "test1", test2-4 also drop with it but in the padding that has been created from the drop down, "test1" information shows up. Allowing the user to click or read whatever information is in there. Also, if the user would like to, they can move their mouse to test2 and everything would animate (opacity, this I can do I think) to whatever is in the test2 field, test3 doing the same and so on. I haven't had much success with this, I've created a completely separate panel before, but that didn't exactly work or I wasn't doing it correctly. Here is what I've been working on, ANY help would be appreciated! Thanks! Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

Hello The onFocus events I have come across seem to deal with changing the background colour of the field on a Web form, so that the active field is a different colour to the background field of the other form elements. But how would I use onFocus simply to have the cursor moving in the active field (on a Web form it might be the 'name' field for example)? The code I have at the moment looks like this: Code: <!DOCTYPE etc

Many thanks Steve Hi Chaps, I have a PHP form with one input and a button. A jQuery script ('loading' animated gif) is triggered on the click of the submit button. I also have a Spry Validation field linked to the input. At the moment, if the validation is triggered, the animated gif continues and won't stop. The furthest I've managed to get with it, is to click the validation message to stop the animation, but what I'm really after is to stop the animation when the validation is visible/triggered, but I can't find a suitable Event. Code: <script type="text/javascript">
$(function() {
$("#button_download")
.click(function() {
})
.throbber();
$("#sprytextfield1")
.click(function(sprytextfield1) {
$.throbberHide();
})
});
</script>
If someone can point me in the right direction, that would be sweet. ok tell me if I wrote this properly Code: eval('windowBody' + windowCount + '.style.backgroundColor = "black";');
I'm attempting to be able to create multiple windows on my page http://opentech.durhamcollege.ca/~in...rittains/labs/ Hi, I was just wondering is it possible to have an onclick() JavaScript function that would use PHP to INSERT a new row into a MySQL table? Like is it possible to put some php into a javascript function that runs when I click the button on my page? Something like that? The PHP updates the MySQL database and the JavaScript tells the PHP when to happen? Just wondering what's the best way to go about that. Is there a way to have functions execute sequentially, rather than additively, using setTimeout? The problem here is varying browser speeds. Say we have some functions and they're set to fire after certain intervals, to create a rhythm. If you set them this way: Code: fn1(); setTimeout('fn2()',3000); setTimeout('fn3()',5000);
and fn2() takes approx 1600ms to complete, there should be a 400ms pause before fn3(). But no two browsers are the same: the rhythm is at the mercy of browser speed. In some browsers, fn3() will fire before fn2 is finished. It sounds finicky, but it's like looking at a cut in a film: it's either smooth and not noticed, or it jars. Is there a way to execute which says: "do fn1(); when it's finished, wait 3 seconds and do fn2(); when it's finished, wait 400ms and do fn3()" ? cheers. I have been searching through the forums and have not been able to find exactly what I am looking for. I built my web site a while back using Flash. Right now I am trying to convert it to a non-Flash site. I am trying to duplicate my slideshow, with a caption, and forward/back button in javascript. If anyone can offer advice on how to do this I would greatly appreciate it. my current flash site: http://moparch.com/moparch/architecture/msbe/msbe.html Thanks in advance. P.S. I am brand new to javascript. My experience is limited to the few online tutorials that I have worked through. I was planning on using Dreamweaver (which I am already familiar with) to assemble the final site once I get the necessary javascript figured out. |
