Throughout the world in general, ISO 8601 Week Numbers are used, in
which weeks are numbered 01 upwards and Week 01 contains the first
Thursday of the Gregorian Calendar Year.
There are, however, odd parts of the world where that standard is not
followed.
Ignoring for the moment cases in which week 1 is not more-or-less at the
beginning of the calendar year, what other definitions, stated exactly,
are used?
I've wasted several hours trying to do this but I give up.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI want to get the day number of the week from a dynamic date such as 2010-09-25. The Objects to use are clear but not the input they accept
var d=new Date();
var dd=d.getDay();
But this retaurn the week day number of the current day. So how can I feed Date() with above date?
I have this particular problem with eval() when using Microsoft
Internet Explorer, when trying to define an event handler. This is the
code:
function BigObject()
{
this.items = new Array();
this.values = new Array();
this.addItem = function( item )
{
this.items[this.items.length] = item;
}
this.makeHandlers()
{
var i, length = this.items.length;
for ( i = 0; i < length; i++ )
this.items[i].onclick = function()
{ alert( this.values[i] ); };
}}
However, this last code (makeHandlers() method) doesn't work since the
expression "this.values[i]" automatically belongs to this new
anonymous function, and therefore isn't valid (since the new anonymous
function(s) don't have the "values" attribute. So I tried the
following:
this.items[i].onclick = eval( "function() { alert( " +
this.values[i] + "); }" );
and it worked! ... in Firefox only :( Internet explorer returns
"undefined" for eval( "function() { /* whatever */ ); } " ), for the
same things Firefox perfectly understands, and if I try to make it a
handler, an exception is fired in IE. What do I do? Did I come to the
right conclusion with IE or am I making a banal mistake? Do I need to
find another way of solving this or is there a fix to this solution?
I had a look at sIFR.js code after parsing it and I have a question
about function syntax. For example
var f=function(){
// statements here
}();
What is the purpose if the second set of parentheses following the
closing brace? Is the intention to execute the function immediately
after it has been defined?
Most functions in sIFR.js do not have this syntax, but a few do.
I debugged some html file and found this:
------------------------------------------------------------
<script language="JavaScript">
if ( some_statement ) {
function MyFunction ( some_argument ) {
some_function_statements;
}
}
</script>

Is it allowed to define a function INSIDE some 'if' statement?
I'm trying to grab all of the elements of a DL, specifically the <a href>'s
grouping them by the DD's. I suppose if I can just get them into groups I
can get the href's later. The hard part is getting them grouped as explained
below. For example...
<dl id="dlList">
<dt><a href="#2">DT Item1<span>(1)</span></a></dt>
<dd><a href="#">DD Item1<span>(2)</span></a></dd>
<dd><a href="#">DD Item2<span>(1)</span></a></dd>
<dd><a href="#">DD Item3<span>(1)</span></a></dd>
<dt><a href="#1">DT Item1<span>(1)</span></a></dt>
<dd><a href="#">DD Item1<span>(1)</span></a></dd>
<dd><a href="#">DD Item2<span>(1)</span></a></dd>
</dl>
Is there a way to say, loop through the DL until it finds a DT. Whe it finds
one, grab it and all of the DD's that immediately follow it .. until it
comes to another DT. Group it with its DD's and continue until no more DT's
are found.
Then maybe take these collections and possibly populate an array with the
groups?
There is an effect I would like to do but I don't know how it is done. To see something like it go to:[URL].. then mouseover the right side items under "most recently". It seems like there is a dt link which when mouseover occurs the dd data is presented.

View 6 Replies View Relatedi've got an object and i'd like to recursively call a function
within the class definition.
(i've simplified the code )
function myclass()
{
this.loop = function(index)
{
// ..work
setTimeout( "loop(" + (index+1) + ")", 100 );
}
}
does not work.
i've also tried
setTimeout( function() { loop(index+1) }, 100 );
i've also prefixed this. to loop in both cases - and no workee.
i think it's some sort of scope problem.
I am trying to use multiple instances of this little show/hide script for a definition list on the same page. However, the problem is that the definition list must be given an ID, and this can only be used once on a page. [URL]. How would I go about changing this to a class so that I could use it more than once on a page (i.e. multiple definition lists as opposed to one big one)? I changed all of the getElementById to getElementByClass and it didn't seem to work.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs it better to use prototype when declaring classes or is it better to use closures inside the definition, e.g.:

As use of the class is the same, I can't really decide which to use.

The practical scenario is I have several functions attached to the jQuery ajaxSucess event. Each function needs to execute once during initial load and after when the JQuery ajaxSuccess event is fired. So I am just looking to see if I can eliminate a a few lines of code and learn something new in the process, that is really all.
I've got a website with font sizes using 'em's. I've made it so that in my 'body' CSS styling, I can change the font size and it changes it right throughout the whole site.
I have hyperlinks to increase and decrease the font size but have no idea how to get the links to change the 'font-size' property in my 'body' definition. As a secondary requirement (but not essential) I also need to remember this value and store in a cookie so the user doesn't need to keep resizing the page on every reload.
I've always wanted to help second-language English speakers access my site better, by offering a 'double-click on a word' definition in other languages. I had a useful script for some years which was rather dated, and ceased to work if there was an iframe on the page for some reason. Anyway, I found a very good solution at [URL]However, this opens the definition in a new tab/window.
Having experimented with it opening in a popup, I found problems in getting the popup to regain focus if someone had not closed it before looking for another definition. And anyway, popups can get blocked. So I found a nice layer/iframe solution at [URL] though their positioning of the layer is poor, at least in FF because it slides too far down below the bottom of the page. Their script is: [URL]I have modified that to work with dictionarist and stripped out their own floating part of the script, so that it works with position fixed for everything except IE6. But for IE6, I need to still change this from position fixed to position absolute, and then use a script to float the box.I have been trying the script I use successfully elsewhere in a vaguely similar context:
Code:
/* Script by: www.jtricks.com
* Version: 20060303
* Latest version:
[code]....
which has a call to startFloat(); near the end, which is based on their own floating script nearer the top of [URL] which I have removed. (Doubtless the references to Netscape (RIP) can be removed.)

View 13 Replies View RelatedI am looping through an array of objects and creating an <li> element for each one and appending to a <ul> in the DOM. Works fine.During the looping I am also attached a 'details' object as data for the list element:$(thisListItem).data('details',{<obj>});Later, I am using the selector:$('ul#images_list li')to attach an on click function for each <li> element.In the click handler I am reading the data 'details' object for the <li> element:dataDetails = $.data(lotImage,'details');and, using the jAlerts plugin, I am opening a jPrompt which asks for the user to enter a price.
The jPrompt call includes a callback which receives the entered value as a parameter. The callback uses the value to 'post' the updated value, via $.ajax, to a server side unction.After OK is clicked in the jPrompt popup, in Firebug, I get an error that the dataDetails is undefined and it lists the line number in the click handler where I originally read the data object from the <li> element.I don't really understand why it should care after the click event has fired and the jPrompt callback has been invoked

What I'm trying to do is retrieve the first date of that selected week and the last date. All attempts have failed.
well I know how to get current day of week it's getDay, right... and also there is getUTCDay option to get current day of week for universal time. Now, what I need is to get current time for UTC+1, because I need to make IF statement which checks current UTC+1 Day, and do something based on which day it is.
So in short... if I need getUTC+1Day )) how could I do that?
