Generating A Random Between 2 Numbers?
May 11, 2010
I'll get to the point, I'm a noob I'm using greasemonkey for a certain website. Basically, I'm using gm to refresh the page after a certain time, I was however wondering, If I can set it to a random number between 2 specific times?
The code I'm using atm is setTimeout(function() { document.location.reload(); } , 10000); I know I have to use math.random, well, I think I do. But I'm not sure how to do it between 2 certain times? So to summarise, I'm trying to refresh a page at any given random time between say 5-10 minutes.

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 want a certain amount of image spots to show a certain set of images (specifically 8) in a random order every time the page is refreshed. I do not want the images to be repeated, however. The solution I came up with was to create an array and generate a number one to eight and then compare that number to the numbers previously in the array, and if it matched one that was previously generated, to generate a new number and then compare it. This continues until i have an array of the numbers 1-8 in a random order.
var imgs=new Array(8);
for(i in imgs)
{
function generate()
{
return Math.floor(1+Math.random()*8);
[Code]...
This does not strike me as the most efficient way to go about this. If someone has a better solution,

New to JS, and not too good at it. Trying to take some prewritten code and add script that displays some random text. Having trouble with assignment. Instructions are to replace a section of the file I am given with a script element. In the script element I am suppose to declare a variable named tipNum equal to a random integer between 1 and 10 returned by the randInt() function (which I made and have shown below). Then I am suppose to use a series of document.write() methods to write the following HTML code into the page:
<h1>Random Tip<br />title</h1>
<p>tip</p>
(Where "title" is the title of the random text as generated by the tipTitle() function from a external file, and which I did not make; and "tip" is the text of the random tip as genereated by the tipText() function, which is also from the external file, and not made by me) My code for the randInt() function is
function randInt(lower, upper) {
var size = ++(upper - lower);
var randValue = Math.floor(lower + size*Math.random());
}
The script I made to display the HTML code is
[Code]...
I am getting nothing on my page where the random text should be.

For a computer science class homework assignment I need to create a page where an image changes randomly when a button is clicked. This is what I have so far, nothing happens when button is clicked. I need the button to randomly return one of the five images described in the emotions function. Please help, I sorely need it.

This script is a slightly modified version of "Unique Random Numbers". In this script it becomes easier to implement more than one instances of "Picking Unique Random Numbers".
This JavaScript picks up a number of unique random elements from an array.
For example; if you have an array myArray consisting of 10 elements and want to pick 5 unique random elements. Suppose initially myArray[3] is picked randomly, then myArray[3] should not be picked again.

My Name is Tom I am from the UK and I am (for my own entertainment and learning) creating a dvd indexing web application to sort and catagorize my dad's dvd collection. On the homepage for this website I have dynamically (using JS) appended 3 image elements which contain the images of dvd box art at "x by 225" pixel dimensions i.e. when I resize the dvd box art they all have to be 225 pixels in height and constrain to the necessary width in contrast to the height. Now that the images are working, I now want them to be randomized so 3 unique box art images are displayed everytime the page is refreshed. So far my script is:
Code:
// Image Rotation Javascript
function imageRotation()
{
// Preload images
[Code].....
Problem with this is that sometimes I get results from the random number generation that are non-unique i.e. sometimes random_number1, random_number2 and random_number3 yield: 3,3 and 11 etc. I need to make it so that you never get such clashes or it will show 2 or more identical images on the homepage. How can I change the random number generators to achieve this?
how to plug the imgObj into the image elements as to use the preloaded images instead (at the moment their just hard coded.)

I would like to create a Blackjack style game for one of my high school programming classes. I can generate 3 different random numbers and use these random numbers to display an image with that number on it.
How do I add the 3 separately generated numbers together to show the total??
Here is my code so far. Specifically I would like to add the myNumber1(), myNumber2() and myNumber3() results together.

I have a form wich has a add/remove row button, this so the visitor can select multiple sets of data. All is fine and is being submitted via PHP.
Only problem is from number 10 and up, i am getting strange random numbers in the new rows that are added in their name. Like 1111 (instead of 11), 122222 (instead of 12). And because of this, every row from 10 and up won't be send through php, giving this random effect.

I have a quick question with multiple array and random numbers. If i generate my random numbers in one array, how would i take a selection of those numbers and put them in another array?
Ex: array 1: 25, 34, 38, 40, 22, 49
Want to move numbers between 30 and 50 to another array.
array 2: 34, 38, 40, 49
Is it as simple as for loops and if statements setting the conditions? do i use a sorting method? (selection? bubble?)

I've got my code, and the task is to generate two random numbers, the user then inputs an answer for them added together, then the program checks the answer and displays either "correct" or "wrong". Here's some of my code:
Code:

} else {

} document.questions.result.value = response ;
} function randoms() {
rndNum = Math.random();
Num = rndNum*20;
Num1=rndNum*10
document.write(Math.round(Num)+"+"+ Math.round(Num1));
} function adding() {
document.write(Math.round(Num) + Math.round(Num1)); }

I'm trying to generate random numbers 0-8 to use to access array indices.[code]Every once in a while, I'm getting a -1 in my console log. I read on a site that this line:[code]will generate a number between 0 and 10 (so 1-9).How is -1 being generated?

I need to modify the script showed at: [URL]
Right now it allows entering "numbers only", I need it so that it allows numbers and alphabets only, no special characters or spaces.
And yes, one more question, does the first part of the code need to be added in the <head> of the document or <body> ?
The code at the above URL is as follows:
<script type="text/javascript">
// initialise variable to save cc input string
var cc_number_saved = "";

I'm trying to use Javascript to have an array of images that load randomly AND work in a slideshow manner so change every 3 seconds (in a logical order). The code I have below presents a random image but how do I get them to continue from the random image and change to the next every 3 seconds?

images = new Array(3);
images[0] = "<a href = 'photo1.html'><img src='images/photo1.jpg' alt='Photo 1'></a>";
images[1] = "<a href = 'photo2.html'><img src='images/photo2.jpg' alt='Photo 2'></a>";
images[2] = "<a href = 'photo3.html'><img src='images/photo3.jpg' alt='Photo 3'></a>";

Let's suppose a user enters his message " My name is John" in a textarea. and he likes to modify by adding <b> tag before the word "John" after he enters "My name is John".
In order to add <b> tag in front of the word "John", he should put his mouse before "John" and enter <b>.
but instead of entering <b>, I like to make the user to click the button "<b>", then <b> is automatically created just before the word "John" in the textarea.
Of course </b> will be needed later, but forget about </b> for simplification.
In short, I like to make the button "<b>" , in order to add <b> tag in front of "John" after entering "My name is John."

I've looked for a solution to this issue, but it seems like a little different scenario than other situations. I made a system for generating friend requests on Facebook. I have a grid that is 6 x 3, for a total of 18 cells. Each cell has a picture in it, and the picture is linked to the Facebook friend request page. My problem is that since each cell is populated at random from the array, I'm getting lots of repeats. For example, some picutures are in 5 cells, and some are in none. I'm trying to figure out how to make it so that once a picture is used once in the grid, it does not get used again in the same grid.I still want every cell filled at random on each page load, I just want to prevent the repeating.
Here's my current code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var vip_list=new Array(
new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v225/1616/88/s1220771654_2158.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=1220771654'),
new Array('http://profile.ak.fbcdn.net/v223/1233/29/s904885342_9055.jpg','http://www.facebook.com/addfriend.php?id=904885342'),
