(I know I may be making a meal of the coding however the lecturer wants us to follow this due to everyone being at different levels of programming). I have used the '\' character however the double quotes do not end up in the position I require them?! My Coding function findAnyU (s){ var a = s , b , c , d , e = -1; for (var i = 0 ; i < pages.length && e == -1 ; i++){ b = pages[i].indexOf('['); c = pages[i].indexOf(']'); d = pages[i].substring(b+1, c).toLowerCase(); e = d.indexOf(s.toLowerCase()); } if(e >= 1) a += ' found' else a += ' not found' return (a) } alert (findAnyU('Lboro' , pages)); Current Alert = Lboro found Cheers George i've made an app in php/mysql which generates random quotes at intervals. i'm trying to integrate it with facebook. if i use iframes, everything works smoothly except for one issue, that facebook doesn't support iframe in profile boxes - which is what i want. for this reason, i prefer to use fbml. however, i'm using jquery to get the quotes from the php file, and this doesn't work in fbml. i read that with fbml, i can work with fbjs. since i do not know fbjs, i'm stuck. how do i convert the jquery code to get the quotes from php to fbjs? specifically, which part from the jquery file do i need to convert to fbjs, to get my code to work using fbjs? any help would be appreciated. i tried using fbjqry, but it didn't work. this is my code: Code: <!DOCTYPE html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/jquote.css" /> <!--<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/jquery-1.4.2.js"></script>--> <script type="text/javascript" src="fbjqry/utility.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="fbjqry/fjqry.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> // On page load, fill the box with content. $(document).ready(function() { $("#quoteContainer").load("quote.php"); }); var auto_refresh = setInterval( function () { $('#quoteContainer').load('quote.php'); }, 5000); // refresh every 10000 milliseconds </script> </head> <div id="wrapper"> <div class="header"> Quote of the Day</div> <div id="quoteContainer"> </div> </div> </html> This little snippet of code produces random quotes but sometimes gives a missing quote between two quote marks.

I use around 50 quotes in the real thing. 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);"? Code: <html> <body> <div id="link"> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/">Facebook</a> </div> <script type="text/javascript"> var addr=new Array(); addr[0]="http://www.google.com/"; addr[1]="http"//www.yahoo.com/"; addr[2]="http://www.bing.com/"; var rl=document.getElementById("link"); var ri=Math.floor(Math.random()*3); rl.innerHTML= </script> </body> </html> I got stuck in getting this to work (show random element of the array as a link with description) Code: rl.innerHTML='<a href="addr[ri]">addr[ri]</a>'; This is showing addr[ri] on a page and directs to www.domain.com/addr[ri] Thank you in advance for any info. Good morining, I'm working on a javascript for a rollover menu that the client is regularly changing. I want to create a call to a remote "document write" script on each page so that when it changes I only have to modify it in the script rather than on every page of the site. The problem I am having is that I cannot figure out how to include the quotes needed to execute the rollovers without killing the script. I tried removing all the quotes, and the "\" method as I would with a perl script, (and MANY other attempts) but no go. Here is where I'm at right now. I would appreciate any suggestions or links to info I can read to learn from. Call to the script in the html page(s): Code: <SCRIPT language="JavaScript" SRC="Nav_11Set.js"></SCRIPT> The script (condensed to one image): Code: document.write('<table id=Table_01 width=143 height=264 border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr><td><a href=http://www.minersalley.com/Memberships.html onmouseover=changeImages('Nav_11Set_01', 'images/Nav_11Set_01-over.jpg'); return true;onmouseout=changeImages('Nav_11Set_01', 'images/Nav_11Set_01.jpg'); return true;onmousedown=changeImages('Nav_11Set_01', 'images/Nav_11Set_01-down.jpg'); return true; onmouseup=changeImages('Nav_11Set_01', 'images/Nav_11Set_01-over.jpg'); return true;><img name=Nav_11Set_01 src=images/Nav_11Set_01.jpg width=143 height=24 border=0 alt=Membership Info!></a></td></tr></table>') I've got this bit of code that I've wrote and it was working absolutely fine like this: Code: function validatepostcode() { var postcodevalue = document.getElementById("postcode").value; if (postcodevalue.indexOf("S") == -1) { alert(postcodevalue + " is not a valid postcode."); } } Until I tried to add double quotes: Code: function validatepostcode() { var postcodevalue = document.getElementById("postcode").value; if (postcodevalue.indexOf("S") == -1) { alert( \" postcodevalue \" + " is not a valid postcode."); } } What I want to do is wrap the value of "postcodevalue" in double quotes, and since it's inside an alert, I used the escape sequence \", which is how it should be done as far as I know. But for some reason, Dreamweaver's giving me a syntax error warning and the code doesn't work. Am I using the double quotes wrong? Regards, Hashim. I'm trying to insert a title and a body into a Google maps window through PHP. The body could contain double or single quotes. How do I output these so that they don't break the script? Relevant code: Code: $('#map_canvas').gmap('openInfoWindow', { 'content': '<strong><?php echo $m->marker->Title; ?></strong><br /><?php echo $m->marker->Body; ?><?php echo '<a href="./marker_info.php?id='.$m->marker->Nid.'"></a>' ?><br /><a id="m_location" href="#" data-role="button" data-icon="search" onclick="$.mobile.silentScroll(500);"></a>'}, this); Hey all, have a bit of a problem. I'm trying to store a variable in Javascript that consist of user input that may include both quotes and apostraphes (amongst any other stuff). Currently looks a bit like this: Code: <script> var importantNote = [[Note]]; if (importantNote != "" && importantNote != " ") { var importantNoteOutput = "<div class=\"important\"><h3>Important Note:</h3> [[Note]]</div>"; document.write (importantNoteOutput); } </script> Obviously, when [[Note]] (another variable pulled through a seperate program to create complete code) contains ", it doesn't go so well ('[[Note]]' solves that, but creates same issue with any plurals ). I *could* get end user (probably me) to always ensure anything entered in this field (and few others used in a similar way) contain escaped characters, but this isn't preferable. Preferably, I'd like a way of escaping an entire string automatically, eg. encode([[Note]]) - though that doesn't seem to work. Any quick tips? FWIW, I don't think I can use php, or much else for the task. Pretty much stuck with html and javascript. Thanks Not sure if this should be in the ASP forum or this one (probably could go either), so here goes. I don't know hardly any - probably best to say dont know any at all - javascript. However I have a need to convert some code from asp to js. the code is checking to see if certain variables are null and if so counting how many of those variables are as such. the ASP looks like this: Code: <% Dim counter counter = 0 if a <> "" then classcounter = classcounter + 1 if b <> "" then classcounter = classcounter + 1 if c <> "" then classcounter = classcounter + 1 if d <> "" then classcounter = classcounter + 1 if e <> "" then classcounter = classcounter + 1 if f <> "" then classcounter = classcounter + 1 %> I need to know how to convert this to js so I can show this number to the user without sending data to the server first. I have searched the net for something similar but I am not having much luck finding any examples that do what I would like it to do (maybe this is not something that can/should be done in js?). I hope this makes sense...thanks! I am trying to convert following pesudocose to javascript. Dont know where am i messing it up.
