View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to declare a variable inside a function and use it later on in my code... but it just already returns white space... i.e. not variable value. I am setting it within this function:
function show_video1(){
document.getElementById('video1').style.display="block";
var video1Name = "Education World News (Part 1)";
document.getElementById('video2').style.display="none";
document.getElementById('video3').style.display="none";
document.getElementById('video4').style.display="none";

and trying to call it later on with this: <script type="text/javascript">document.write(video1Name)</script> It might be worth noting that each one of my 11 videos will hace a different name.
I prefer to keep all my scripts in an external '.js' file. I am currently loading the external '.js' file from the header. Problem is I would like to declare a global variable in the external file, but I keep getting an error about the object does not exist.
Can someone tell me where or how to declare a global variable in an external file that is available after the page is loaded.
I want to assign value to global variable in javascript from jquery ajax function.
Here i need the value of trueFalse from success function.
I tried creating a global function to calculate the distance between 2 points.
jQuery.distance(p1, p2){
var dx = p2.x - p1.x;
var dy = p2.y - p1.y;
return Math.sqrt(dx^2 + dy^2);
};
Somewhere else within my code, I declare a new variable in order to store the value returned by the distance function.
var distance = $.distance(particle1, particle2);
However this is not working.
I am attempting to use the return value from a nested ajax function as the value for a variable in its parent. However, despite being able to successfully assign the variable within the nested function, it reverts back to its original value after the child function has terminated. Below is the code:

I have a .js file that receives a value from an html page. I'd like this
value to be a global variable that all functions in the .js file can use. I
have tried just declaring a var at the top of my .js file, but when the
value comes into the function and gets assigned to that variable, it is not
global.
I would like to store a variable then call it back later. I have a variable on line 198
www = ''+this._ad.clickUrl+'';
And on line 321 I try
document.write(www);
I've tried so many different options, just won't work. I have even tried to call document.write(window.www);

The purpose behind this is creating a form that will work with an existing database that would normally have a text area with lots of information. I am trying to turn it into a checklist that I can run from a mobile device. The global variables woudl be used to fill in a hidden text area that would then be passed on to the database upon submission. I am trying to keep the code as compact as possible.

I am using jQuery 1.4.2 and I am trying to carry over the global variable totaltabs into my JSON callback function. The code seems to work properly, however, in my loadJSON function after the callback function loads the data, my totaltabs variable will not increment.
Here is a peak at my code.
totalItems is loaded from another function, not relevant to my example.
Code JavaScript:
var totaltabs = 0;
$(document).ready(function(){
resize();

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble calling a function using a variable, from within a parent function. For instance:
function parent(){
function child(){
console.log("It worked")[code]....
That results in "TypeError: 'undefined' is not a function (evaluating 'window[test]()')"
The code is below but basically I have two global variables, then I have a function and then a function within that, I am simply trying to update these global variables from within the nested function so i can then go on and use them in another function! this sounds like quite a straight forward request to me, but maybe it can not be done? When I do an alert on the variables (after I have apparently updated their values) I get 'undefined'!
Code JavaScript:
var resultLatB;
var resultLngB;
function getLatLngFromTown(town, callbackFunction) {
var localSearchB = new GlocalSearch();
localSearchB.setSearchCompleteCallback(null,
function() {
if (localSearchB.results[0]){
resultLatB = localSearchB.results[0].lat;
resultLngB = localSearchB.results[0].lng;
pointA = resultLatB;
pointB = resultLngB;
//THIS WORKS
alert("Test 1 = " + resultLatB);
alert("Test 1 = " + resultLngB);
}});
localSearchB.execute(town + ", UK");
//DOESN'T WORK... SHOULD IT?
alert("Test 2 = " + resultLatB);
alert("Test 2 = " + resultLngB);
}
getLatLngFromTown("oxfordshire",null);
//I WANT THIS TO WORK!
alert("Test 3 = " + resultLatB);
alert("Test 3 = " + resultLngB);
I am looking for a push in the right direction for a few problems i am running into; my first problem is I have to create a script element that contains the function amountTotal which should return the sum of all the values in the amount array. There are no parameters for this function, and I have to add the following commands to it.
1. declare a variable named total with an initial value of 0
2. create a for loop thatloops through all of the values in the amount array, at each iteration of the loop, add the current value of the array item to the value of the total variable.
3. and after the for loop is completed, return the value of the total variable.
The amount array has already been created and populated in a list.js file, I had to first create a script element pointing to it.
This is what i had for my link to the list.js file and funtion :
I have my entire code written but i am trying to break it up and fix my problems 1 at a time: when i open the code, it does'nt display correctly ( which is another problem) but I ran the debugger and it says my total is undefined. ( this is in another section of my code), but I guess my function is wrong somewhere.
I am simply trying to use a global variable in javascript, but can only access the variable on the second call. I can't find anything that relates to this through my searches. My application is supposed to query the server for XML that tells me which years and months are available to put into combo boxes. I want to store this xml in a global variable to access it later.

use this kind of syntax in an open source plugin.#varableName = someMethod(); that someMethod return an object instance.Then I can access that object outside that plugin. Is this a standard javascript global variable or some jQuery feature?

Unfortunately, isValid never changes from the initial "true". I know that $.post is working correctly because #msg_code reflects the corresponding message.
How do i declare a default value in a function? I have a simple function
function color_input(id,token){
if (!empty(token)){
document.getElementById(id).style.backgroundColor = '#2A2A2A';
document.getElementById(id).style.color = '#DDC58C';
[Code]....
You will notice that the #2 parameter is missing in the html call. Sometimes i don't have it to send. in PHP i would just set the functions second param like token=''
function color_input(id,token=''){}
How do i set a default param in a JS function?
