Adding Random Number To HTML Form?
May 29, 2009
I have a pretty basic HTML form, it doesn't go to a database or anything, it just gets emailed directly to the owner of the website with their customer query.However, the owner has now asked that each query be assigned a random reference number of no more than 16 digits which must also be visible to the customer.I presume this will be relatively easy but I'm a complete beginner with Javascript which I assumed would be necessary for generating the number. I've sort of figured out how to generate the number but I can't figure out how to get that number into a read-only field on the form so that it will be both visible to the client and sent with the rest of the data on the form to the owner.I've had a number of attempts but this is what I'm trying at the moment:
Code:
<html>
<head>

I wanted to throw a quick and easy .js function into my comments section to ward off some spamming bots. I have a form in html that contains this table row.
The function I am calling sits in an external .js file. The file itself has a handful of functions but I will post the important bits below.
The form has other fields that validate just fine.

I have a form and select menus. I am posting it ajax post method and loading the same page with load method as you see in codes. There is a random number genarator. I want to change this random number once a click submit. If i do not load the same page this number does not change. Therefore I use both post and load methods like in demo. However when i do like this there is a problem which is random number have been generated twice somtimes. If you click submit button successively you will see that the number on left top corner sometimes changes twice a click. Why it is so and how can i correct it.

This statement is to produce a random integer within a specified range. I get the desired result when passing the values within a function like this:
Code:
<html>
<script type="text/javascript">
function get_randomRange(low,high){
[code]...
the results form the second example look like the number are possibly being multiplied somewhere? why does the first example work and the second not?

I am making a form using HTML and java where you enter a number and it uses an equation then spits out another number. My problem is I want to split the number you put into the form and add it up. Example You enter"457829"Press "convert"And the first step I want it to do is"4+5+7+8+2+9=sumA"Then"sumA/8"So far I can only do the sumA/8 if I manually add up the numbers then place the sum in the form, here's the code:
Code:
{
var a = parsefloat(form.NumA.value, 10);

I am creating a html form for the local soccer league for online registration. In a drop down box the user chooses whether in house or travel and both choices have a different fees ao I would like to add a $ value to both options to be displayed in a TOTAL box at the bottom of the form before they submit. I would (if possible) like to have that total displayed on the page they are directed to after submitting the form. This page will have a link to PayPal for the user to pay their fee or I could skip that step and have the user taken directly to PayPal checkout with that total already filled in. Is this at all possible? What are my possiblities? I am NOT any where near a pro at the code writing. I can provide a link to what I have done already if requested.

I can generate a random number between 1 and 9,
( var rand_no = Math.floor( 1 + Math.random() * 9 ); )
but I want to add that random number to a value that is enterred into an inputbox and get a total. How can I do this using Javascript and put the result into a hidden field. I will also need to use that same random number in another place on another form .

I'm trying to apply something in my forums, where a member could post something let's say:"Hi, I am number 1, 6"And what would happen is that, a number from 1 to 6 would be the content, for example, it would be:"Hi, I am number 3"But if you refresh the page, it would still be the same number. Like it won't be randomized again.So how do I make a javascript/html code that would make a one time number randomizer.

In the forum, it usually talked about generating a number between 1 or 0 to that certain value using something like Math.round(Math.random() * 200); or Math.floor(Math.random() * 200);
But what do you do if you want to generate a number between 201 and 400.

I run a random number generating service for a RPG message board I go to, and my website generates only numbers from 1-100. How could I script this so that the user can get random numbers between 1-X?

I set myself the task of creating a button which, when pressed, switches the background color randomly. It seems to work well enough but the random number it works from only generates once at page load.As a workaround, I added a second 'Reset Page' button, but I really want just one button that switches the page color every time you prod it. Any ideas how to reset the random number to achieve this?Here's the code.

In http:www.dreaminco...wtopic51264.htm a code was proposed for generating a random number within an array and then printing it into the html document using document.write.Is it possible to go one step ahead and feeding the result into an html href function? [code]is the random array member generated by the javascript.

I am trying to make a random number between 1 and 1,000. I have a code that seems to work correctly, but I don't completely understand it and after looking online I think it might be wrong. Code: var rnd = Math.floor(Math.random()*999)

All the numbers should match. It's not working right in any version of IE I test it in (6, 7 and 8). I'm also using jQuery, fyi.When you click the button to stop the numbers, I'm setting a variable named winner to a number (3, 4 or 5). Right now, I have it set to 5. This number determines how many of the slots match:[code]I'm then generating a random number (0-8) to base all the other numbers off of . Three numbers will always match, so I'm setting two more variables to match that random number.[code]Then I do some conditionals to check the value of winner. If it's 4, I set the 4th number to random number, then generate a random number for the 5th spot while it doesn't equal randomnum. I do something similar if winner is set to 5.[code]The goto trigger sends the scroll to the specified index according to slotnum(1-5).I'm waiting to hear back from the plugin developer to see if it's something to do with that.However, I just want to make sure my logic in generating those numbers is sound. It works perfectly in FF, Opera and Chrome but (surprise!) not in any of the IEs (tested in 6, 7 and 8).

I am trying to make it so that when you press a button it prints out a random number. This is what I currently have:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function randomnumber(randomForm){
var x=Math.floor(Math.random()*11);
document.write(x);
}
</script>
<FORM>
<INPUT type="button" value="Print Number" name="button1" onClick="randomnumber(this.form)">
</FORM>
When I click on the button it just clears all the text from the page and clears the bgcolor. A random number then appears at the top left corner. I am trying to make it so that when I press the button it prints out a random number just above or below the button. Is this possible? if so how do you set it up?

I am trying to generate random number within a range. My code at the moment is
Code:
var uppermax = 100; var uppermin = 10; var upperdiff = uppermax - uppermin; var lowermax = 10; var lowermin = 0; var lowerdiff = lowermax - lowermin; var rand = Math.floor(upperdiff + 1) * Math.random() + uppermin; alert(rand);
I know math.floor is supposed to round down to the nearest integer, but the generator is still coming back with a float.

How would I go about creating a random number between 1-50 that COULD include whole numbers, decimals to the tenth, hundredth and the thousandth place?
Ex) 2.145, 3, 5.8, 41.002, 10.12, 7, 18.023, 33.2
Also, if the only way to do it is to put trailing zeros to the thousandth place that's fine as well
Ex) 2.145, 3.00, 5.800, 41.002, 10.120, 7.00, 18.023, 33.200

The following code is supposed to provide a different alert message when a page is loaded, based on a random number generated on load. Can anybody see what is probably a very obvious problem that I just can't see?[code]
