I am creating a game which will need to create arrays and store variables for thousands of different users. I have created about 15 functions that will need to store their changes to variables so that the game can progress.show me a simplistic way to store a variable altered or created in a function longterm?
What is jQuery's long-term strategy for browser support - cut off browsers after a certain number of years or when going below a certain market share? [I'm asking because of the current trend among some webdevs and also library developers advocating to remove IE6 support and force these users to upgrade their browser. I work with several clients that do not want to "lead the way" in this respect, and need to support IE6 as long as it has a fair usage share, which may be for several more
how you would piece together a variable name and then assign it a value. I want to create a hidden field and assign it a value based on the value of another variable
I have a flash object count down clock, that uses the following:
value="server={NOW}&localtime={LOCALNOW}
I need to somehow put the server time and localtime into a javascript to use with the above. The variables should be in Unix time. Does that some sense? I'm starting to google out some javascript time examples, but haven't quite gotten it figured out yet. I think its probably alot simpler than I'm making it out to be.
I'm trying to create a family tree online that has several other related family charts. I want each person's name and birth year to be stored in javascript variables, then I want to be able to just go through the tree, and put the persons name once, and have it put the appropriate name and birthyear in the little boxes that the css is creating.
var johnname = "John Smith"; var johnbirthyear = "Jan 1 1930"; var janename = "Jane Doe";
[code]....
So I thought I had it all figured out. I thought that the above would take the id of John that I added, go to the line that sets the name, add john to the word name, and then document write the variable of johnname from the js file. I know you're laughing at me because of course it instead made the value of name to johnname, then wrote the word johnname in the box. I want to go through and be able to just type the persons name in the html for that box once, and have it update with their appropriate info.
I have an e-commerce site which is hosted and I'm not allowed to place any server side script on, nor am I allowed to access any server side variables. I need to be able to create variables based on page content (i.e. order total, products, quantities) and send them to my web analytics program.
Does anyone know if this is possible?? Or do you have any idea how I can gather the information that I need?
how to store variables in cookies so that I can later use them in php code.Here is the basic javascript I want to use:
Code: function alertSize() { var myWidth = 0, myHeight = 0; if( typeof( window.innerWidth ) == 'number' ) {[code]....
Now, I want to save myWidth and myHeight in a cookie(s) but I don't know how to. The window.alert() will only be for testing purposes and will not be needed in the final code. I also need to know if the codes need to be in certain sections such as <head>, etc.]
I'm having some trouble with the Switch Statements. My program runs without it so I know that the problem is here. I believe the logic is sound so it may be due to incorrect syntax. The purpose of this function is to create bars, and the length of the bars is determined by the value of the "percent" variable (which is working fine) in the For loop after the Switch statements. The variable, "partyType" contains any of the text strings, such as "I", "D", etc.
function createBar(partyType,percent){ var barText; switch(partyType){ case "D": barText="<td class='dem'></td>"; break; case "R": barText="<td class='rep'></td>"; break; case "I": barText="<td class='ind'></td>"; break; case "G": barText="<td class='green'></td>"; break; case "L": barText="<td class='lib'></td>"; break; default: document.write("hi"); } for(var i=1; i<percent; i++){ document.write(barText); }}}
I have been working with different codes to get a search form working with a database.I have a search form based on drop down option values, what I would like to do is select a "company" and append the search term to the company's value.E.G the form would be something like:
There will be a free text area which will allow users to input their search term but need this go feed into the above value of "valueisfromsearch". Upon submit, the user will be presented with their results in their browser.Is this possible mid-URL? I've seen info on Javascript Query String Parameters but don't really understand it that well.
I have very limited experience with Javascript. Can someone refer me to info on how to determine the referring URL and the search term used by a visitor just prior to his landing on my web page?
I don't have a clue what i'm doing with this and don't expect someone to just give me the code if it is actually possible (although it would be nice). I've created a site and in the admin area the page will update and tell me if there is a new message from a user, I have this page automatically refreshing every 5 minutes and wondered if it's possible to play a sound file if the term "unread" appears anywhere on the page?
I´m using Autocomplete - jQuery plugin 1.0.2 .. I know has been upgraded to another plugging but i want to continue using the old one.
I have on issue that I would like to get rid of it but I don´t know how. The problem is that when a term is searched, the autocomplete list suggest the same term multiple times, as many times as there are products with the same name, lets say the same text "cold beer". I just want that autocomplete suggest the term one time.
I'm having an issue with doing a simple js task. I have a list of hyperlinks that contain various paths. For instance: a href="[URL] a href="[URL]
What I need is to remove the term "content" from all the hyperlinks in it's contain div. There is got to be a simple way of doing this and I can't seem to find the right direction. I also need to have the targets changed as well, which I was able to complete. window.onload = function(){
var anchors = document.getElementById('containerDiv').getElementsByTagName('a'); var links = "content"; for (var i=0; i<anchors.length; i++){ anchors[i].setAttribute('target', '_blank'); } }
After retrieving a record from the database and displaying one of its text field in an input-type textbox, I click on a word and it'll store or show the current position of cursor in a variable. I have no success with IE's caretPos.
I would like to embed the search results of the Google books search into my website. It should be like Google News elements widget supplied by google itself. I need to have results and not the custom search box.
I'm trying to create a function in JavaScript using Dreamweaver8 such that when a user hits the ' F1' key when a text box is selected a separate "pop-up" window will open, with text of my choice.
Does anybody have any pointers or even some source code? I use ASP on my server.
I've been trying to create a function that creates objects and another function that can delete them when triggered the objects code is generated server side and triggers the function passing the object data. The object data sort of looks like this
I've tried a few methods I looked up but whenever I try to get them to work the way I need them they throw errors... It would be very cool if you could also get it under a div tag.
Write a function translate() that will translate a text into "r�varspr�ket". That is, double every consonant and place an occurrence of "o" in between.
I came across Marijn's helper function again called forEach. It does just what it sounds like it does, and is one of those things one would consider adding to their own personal little library like getElementsByClassName...My question is, I've heard/seen that Mozilla (and only Mozilla at this point) indeed HAVE a forEach function, and I do most of my beginning testing in a recent-stable Mozilla browser, so I'm not 100% sure but I think the Mozilla forEach might work... what happens if I write my own and I keep the name?
So if there's some default forEach that the browser natively understands, and then I have a function in my lib that has the same name, does mine take precedence over the native one, or not? Is it just safer giving libraries slightly weird names so new in-built functions can't possibly interfere?So also, if later browsers end up implementing the newer Javascript (2?) that as I hear, will implement a getElementsByClassName, would this break, or ignore, everyone's pre-made getElementsByClassName, assuming they are called the same name?
I am trying to create a function that takes a users input in the form xx/xx/xxxx. Then I need to figure out a way to compare to a new date and give which day of the year it is when using: alert("This is the" +foo+ "day of the year."). Im alittle confused on how to take the users input and compare it somehow to give me the day of the year.:cool:
