Automatically Changing Background Color Of A Table Cell?
Jul 23, 2005
I'm the webmaster for a recreational organization. As part of one page of the
site, I have an HTML "Calendar at a Glance" of the organization's events for
the month. It's a simple table of a calendar, 7 across by whatever needed
down, and I manually create it each month - not a big deal.
Every day I go in and darken the background color of the current day's cell
by changing the appropriate <TD> entry to <TD bgcolor="c63800"> and uploading
the page. Takes well under a minute start to finish. Thus the calendar
gradually changes color over the course of the month, with the past dates dark
and the future dates lighter and thus more apparent to the eye.
But I have to ask if there's a nifty way in which this might be done
automatically, based on the current day and the number (the day of the month)
that follows the <TD> entry.
A typical "before" entry is
<TD>23<br>Peet's Coffee, Newport Beach<br><br>8 AM: Don<br>9 AM: Molly</TD>
and an "after" entry is
<TD bgcolor="c63800">23<br>Peet's Coffee, Newport Beach<br><br>8 AM: Don<br>9
AM: Molly</TD>
I don't pretend to be a javascript heavy, but can usually stumble my way
through a task given some words of wisdom. Is this "doable"?

Is there any way to have the background color change in a cell only when the mouse is over the link? This is what I have so far:
<td class=topnav2 onClick="location.href='AboutAD/overview.htm'" onMouseOut="this.style.backgroundColor='#9966FF'"onMouseOver="this.style.backg roundColor='#660099'" bgcolor="#9966FF" width="107" height="45"valign="middle">
<a class="topnav2" href="AboutAD/overview.htm">About Alzheimer's</a>
Currently you rollover the cell it changes color, I just want this effect when you roll over the text.

Is it possible to change a table cell background color or add any attributes based on a criteria, anyway, here's my scenario. I have a php table dynamically created onthefly, (let say on load), then i have a sql query returning some values. So illustrating:
Table: Sql Result
1 2 3 4 5 2 5 7
6 7 8 9 10
What I am trying to achieve is use the sql result to add attributes to the table cells so for the illustration say i want to add a bold attribute to all table cell which corresponds to the sql result, the result would be,
Result:
1 2 3 4 5
6 7 8 9 10

I'm super new to any kind of java script. What I want is a menu that, when clicked, changes the background color of a table cell to blue. When a different option is clicked, the current highlighted table should turn back to gray and the new selection should be blue. Well, I have all of that working. What I need now is just to have the first option start out highlighted and to become unhighlighted when another option is clicked.

I have a div whose hover color is initially set through a CSS style sheet, but have found that if I change the background through a script, the hover is wiped out. Here's how I'm changing the colornode.style.backgroundColor = '#00FF00';Later on, I need to restore the normal color and have the hover still work. Is there any way to programatically reinstate the h

I want to change the color of a each word in a block of text. For example I want each word in a sentence to change to a different color automatically.
I was thinking that is if it was possible to move the color tags around each word and put a time delay between each time it moves but how I will accomplish these two actions.

I have a php script that displays database data in a web table. I also have a javascript code which is supposed to compare the value entered in a web form to that hard coded in the script and change the color to green if its below, amber if its equal and red if its greater than.
Below is my javascript code:
As you can see from my javascript, i am getting the elements by id (getElementById("color")). Currently, only the first <td> with id='color' is changing when the value is entered. How do I make the text in other table cells with id='color' change color when the comparison value is entered?

I basically want the background color of a div (banner) to change when the user clicks a green or blue table cell. So if they click the blue table cell, the backgound color of the div changes to blue (its green by default).
Also, when they have picked what color they want, I'd like the color to be stored in the value of the form 'BannerBGColor' so I can post their banner color to database. code...

I'm having a problem dynamically changing the color of a table background.
I'm not sure exactly how to word this, but I'll give an example.
I have a function called greentored(propname)
i want to be able to change the following to a different color:
document.all.propname.style.visibility
but substitute the propname with the variable that I'm sending over.
Here is what I had written before but it did not work, it should be easy to
understand what i'm trying to do:
function greentored(propname) {
changecolor = "document.all." + propname + ".style.background";
changecolor = "green";
}
I understand why this doesn't work because all i'm doing is reasigning
"changecolor" to equal green, rather then setting the property of the first
instance of "changecolor" to green.

So I'm trying to change the background color of a textbox depending on how many characters are enter (putting it green/red depending on count), and I'm having a hell of a time. There are 50 different textbox IDs on the page (give or take, dynamically generated), each unique/sequentially numbered (id1, id2 ... id50).Now I'm not that good with Javascript, but this is what I can up with so far.I was trying to use 'this.id' so I wouldn't have to name each of the IDs.

My goal is not to use any even handlers at all inside the html document. why the script I wrote is not working.

I'm having problems with changing the background color of a div when it is hovered over. So here is my code:
function changeColor(the_div_name)
{
var the_div, div_string;
if (document.all)
{
div_string = "window.document.all." + the_div_name + ".style";
the_div = eval(div_string);
} else if (document.layers) {
div_string = "window.document." + the_div_name;
the_div = eval(div_string);
} else {
alert("sorry, this only works in 4.0 browsers");
return;
}
the_div.background-color = "white";
}
here is my code for the html:
<div name="div7" style="background-color:black; color:blue; position:absolute; top:95; left:664">
<a href="#"

I'm writing a script and I need to change the BACKGROUND and FOREGROUND color of a EDIT BOX Example:
<INPUT type="text" style="position:absolute;left:270px;top:210px;width:72px;background-color:#FF1111;z-index:26" size="9" name="BCBox" value="">
And the way I'm trying to do it is by reading the value of a COMBOBOX, I don't have a problem with that, just changing the color of the edit box.

I have two multiple select inputs. Initially the first contains a bunch of
items and the second is empty. Using a common method, I move items back and
forth by double clicking on them.
This portion works perfectly, but I would also like to change the background
color of the select element with the current focus. I have defined the following classes:
..selected {
background: #C0FFFF
}
..deselected {
background: #FFFFFF
}
Using the following function below I am able to shift the background color
of rows containing content, but the color of the empty rows remain the
"selected" color. How can this effect be achieved for all rows, whether they
contain content or not?

I'm just starting out in Javascript coding and my first assignment is to create a web page which the users are allowed to selecte dtheir favorite layout and formatting through the use of the className property. I wanted to use these four options the user can choose to change the display of the web page and text.
Gray background
White background
Sans-serif text
Serif text
If the user onclicks any of the options, the webpage will turn into that format. For example, if the user clicks "Gray backgound", the background color of the webpage will be Gray. If the user clicks Serif-text, the text in the web page will be in Serif text. The code I have right now doesn't let me click any of the links to change the display and text.

I'm trying to be tricky and its not been working LOL. I have a gallery page with lots of thumbnails that load up. What I wanted to do was have a "LOADING IMAGE" GIF in each of the table cells so that the user would see visually how many more images were going to load up. That bit is fine but when all the thumbs have loaded I want to change that Cell background image to something else.
How would I do this? Would I be able to reference them all at once or would I have to reference each individual cell one at a time.
To better illustrate my point see this this link :
