Difference Between Declaring Var Inside Function And Outside?

Aug 21, 2010

I worked on a simple image slide-show with javascript, and I assigned a value to a var outside of a function using getElementById() like this:

Code:
window.onload = initLinks;
myImg = new Array("images/img01.jpg","images/img02.jpg","images/img03.jpg","images/img04.jpg");
curPic = 0;[code]..........

Declaring/Initializing Variables Inside Or Outside A Loop?

Apr 30, 2007

I've always wonder if there is diference when declaring and
initializing a varible inside/outside a loop.

What's a better practice?
Declaring and initializing variables inside a loop routine, like this:

for(var i=0; i<list; i++)
{
var name = list[i];
}

or outside a loop routine, like this:

var i;
var name;

for (i=0; i<list; i++)
{
name = list[i];
}

or are both the same....

As a programmer, i always try to practice good programming. I always
thought that by declaring and initializing the variable inside the
loop, i was creating a new memory space every time instead of just 1
time...

What do you think?

JS Declaring-Wrong Validation Due To Function With Variable Holding Same Valu?

May 21, 2011

I am doing a Validation for Form "Text input". If the user leaves the input empty, a function is starting to run. If the field is bigger than 1 - so it doesn't get into the function.

The problem is: The first time, the user left the input empty, function ran, and I got the alert - that's OK. Second time, The user added 10 in the AGE input - And again he gets the Alert - But he should not.

Note: Age input value, returns from a different function (calc) to a var called: result.

[Code]...

Difference Between A Function Pointer And A Function Call?

Mar 11, 2011

I'm working through the sitepoint ajax book and had a problem with a particular chunk of code. I eventually tracked down the error and it was being caused because I had:

window.onload = Monitor.init();
instead of:
window.onload = Monitor.init;

Now, one of the sticky threads mentioned that the first is a function call and the second is a function pointer. My questions are:What's the difference between a function call and a function pointer? Why did it cause problems in this particular case? What are the general implications/issues with using one over the other?

Js Function To Find The Difference Between Two Dates?

i've written a js function to find the difference between two dates. the format being used is dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm. The function returns correct value when give one set of values, but go wrong with another set. examples are given below.

set 1 : Time 1 = 24/02/2011 09:30 , time 2 = 24/02/2011 16:00

Output is corret here. It gives 6 Hours & 30 Minutes (after converting the difference)

set 2: Time 1 = 24/02/2011 09:30 , time 2 = 25/02/2011 16:00

Here, it gives 31 days, 6 Hours & 30 Minutes. My code is given below. Also the alert of dates display strange values. Don't know if it is timezone issue.

function compareDateTime(frmtime,totime)
{
var date1 = new Date(frmtime);
var date2 = new Date(totime);[code]......

Declaring / Using Array Of Arrays

Mar 27, 2010

(the "code" below is pseudo code, just to get the idea across)

Here's what I currently have:

var bill = new array[20];
var sam = new array[20];
var nancy = new array[20];
var Oscar = new array[20];

I'm assigning objects to them (ie Oscar[5] = new objLabel() This seems like a kluge, however. Here's what I'd like (again, pseudo-code)

var Objects = {bill:null; sam:null; nancy:null; Oscar:null};
var theObject = new Array of Objects[20];
// yes: i know that's wrong... and that's the part I'm having trouble with

so that I can do something like:

[Code]....

Just seems to me that keeping a single array of multiple objects is likely to be less error-prone than multiple arrays of single objects... But I don't have the syntax right... or can it be done in JS? If it's doable, would someone be kind enough to show me how to declare and access that example?

Declaring Parameter As An Array?

Jun 10, 2010

I have a php script which calls a javascript function with a parameter. I am having trouble getting this parameter act as an array inside the javascript function:

php:
Code:
<? $array1 = '"apple","orange","banana"';
$array2 = '"corn","bean","beet"';
$arrays = $array1.'///'.$array2;

[Code]..

JS sees fruits and vegs as a string rather then an array, so if I try to output fruits[0]; it gives me the entire string rather then seeing it as an array and giving me the first element.

JQuery :: Function Returns The Code Inside The Function?

Aug 29, 2011

I am having a strange problem with a javascript function that does not return the value but returns the code inside the function. My best guess is that I am incorrectly calling the function hasLandedOn()and jquery is interpeting it. Why is this happening? I highlighted the parts in red.-Tom ReeseThe following is returned NOT the variable imageName.

function hasLandedOn(){
var selectorLoc = $("#selector").offset();
var imageName = "";

My Function Works Only If Alert Function Exists Inside It?

Jan 17, 2011

I have what I think is a strange issue but others may see something I am missing.I am using AJAX functionality to process a php script on a server and then place the output of the script into a div element.Here is the code snippet

Code:
function doWork13(typeCode,colorBlockName,objectCategory,imgID){
httpObject = getHTTPObject();
if (httpObject != null) {[code]....

This code shown here works perfectly BUT....I do not want the alert message to be there. When I remove that line of code the script fails to function. There is no error just nothing happens.The function is to replace one image with another and the variable in question is simply the ID tag of the particular image being modified.As I said it works with the alert but does not with out, could it be a timing issue in that the alert gives enough time for the if statement in the setOutput13 function become TRUE

Passing Variable To A Function Inside A Function?

Feb 10, 2010

Here is the code:

for (var i = 0; i < BS_crm['activityTypes'].length; i++) {
var clickFunc = function(){ activityList.showForm( -1, {blockType:[""+BS_crm['activityTypes'][i]['id'], "0"]} ); };
var type = {

[Code]....

Now, basically what I am doing here is running through one array to create an array of objects, that will be used to create links that will use whatever onClick function I pass it. The problem is that on the second line I need the BS_crm['activityTypes'][i]['id'] to be a value, not a reference. If that line was simply changed to:

var clickFunc = function(){ activityList.showForm( -1, {blockType:["3", "0"]} ); };

JQuery :: Dynamically Declaring Functions - 'array' Variable Contains Strings Representing The Id's Of Different Elements

Oct 12, 2010

Demonstration code:

The 'array' variable contains strings representing the id's of different elements. If the for loop above were to finish iterating, would all the links in all three elements call the click function (that displays an alert message), or would only the last element ("element3") have the click function? For me, the latter seems to be the case unless if I'm doing something wrong, but I would like clarifications and, if possible, alternative solutions as to how I can achieve the former result.

Difference Between Object.prototype And Function.prototype?

Nov 25, 2011

According to ECMAScript, the root of the prototype chain is Object.Prototype. Each object has an internal property [[Prototype]] that could be another object or NULL.... However, it also says that every function has the Function prototype object: Function.Prototype, it confused me, because a function is an object, for a function object, what is its function prototype and object prototype..For example:

var x = function (n) {return n+1;};

what is the relationships of x, Object.Prototype and Function.Prototype

Is there any difference?

Put A Function Inside A Function Properly?

Dec 5, 2011

I need to create a code that takes in a function f and a variable x and gives me f(f(x)). For example, if f(x)=2*x and x=3, then f(f(x))=12.

I've tried to look at this from two angles: creating an extra variable to define the function within the function and reusing f on itself. But I can't use either properly.

How can I get my main function to accept a function as its first parameter [function(2*x, 3)]? Is that even possible? I could specify the function f within the twoTimes function, but the point is for f to be a changeable parameter.

I had come up with, but it definitely doesn't work. How should I approach it?

var twoTimes = function(f,x) {
f = function(x) {};
var r = f(x);
return f(r);
};
twoTimes(2*x, 3)
