JQuery :: Get A Return Value In A Function For A Dynamic Div?
Apr 1, 2011
I wonder how I can get a return value from a JavaScript function to a jQuery function. I have dynamic divs that creates each time I push a button and I want to retrieve the new div ID in my jQuery function sow I can get my date pick to drop down.
javascript function to retrieve the new div ID
function currentCustomerDivName()
{
i've got a function which makes a call to the database( via jquery $.post) to check if a username already exists. All the data I get back is fine and both the conditional statment works as intentded. I just can't get the function to return a value to the other function that calls it. Could this be something to do with the scope.
I thought that the value of startDate would end up as the defaultDate param for datepicker. No luck. Only an obscure little message in firebug console: "missing: before statement"
I have some problem using the $.post function. I wrote a function that test if a username is already used in my database. That function must return true if the username is free and false in the other case. My problem is that I use the $.post function and I put the return true; and return false; in the callback function. So it's the callback function that returns true/false instead of my function !
Here is my code : function validateName(){ $.post("ajax_is_name_used.php", {name: $form_name.val()}, function(data) { if (data.success == 1) { $form_name.addClass("error"); return false; // Problem, we are in the callback function ! } else { return true; // Problem, we are in the callback function ! }}, "json");}
How do I get this function to return an array? It seems that outside function(xml) the array is not seen and at the same time return inside function(xml) does not make the GetNumbers function return anything either.
Code:
function GetNumbers(db_id){ $.post("get_numbers.php",{ id: db_id,
I will like to know if there is anyway to view all the rules that I have currently in the Jquery validation plugin. Currently, I am trying to add in rules dynamically through the rules(add) function after adding some dynamic fields through the user inputs. the rules are added in this manner.

I'm writing a function that substantially load a given image making a fadeout/faidin waiting 'till the complete load. The function is named "loadImage" and I would like use it in the following way: $('#image img').fadeOut().loadImage(src).attr("src",src).fadeIn();
In order to make the image disappear, load... change the attribute "src" of the image and then re-appear. The code for the function is: (function($) { $.fn.loadImage = function(src) { var img = new Image(); $(img).attr('src', src).load(function() { return this; }); }})(jQuery);
But when I run it I get the following error: $("#image img").fadeOut().loadImage(src) is undefined I think that the function don't return a "valid" object to make it chainable, isn't it?
i was trying for some days now to find a solution for this. had a look at different posts and forums online, but no luck so far...is it possible to auto-create this with a loop???:
I am attempting to use the return value from a nested ajax function as the value for a variable in its parent. However, despite being able to successfully assign the variable within the nested function, it reverts back to its original value after the child function has terminated. Below is the code:
I'm trying to "progressively enhance" one of my surveys using javascript. Basically, I have rating scales that make use of radio buttons as each point on the scale. Each radio button occupies its own cell in a table. I wrote some functions that will highlight cells on mouseover in a color corresponding to its position on the scale (e.g. the lowest point is red, the midpoint is yellow, the highest point is green). When a radio button is clicked, the background of the button's cell and preceding cells in the same row will be colored accordingly. The functions are working well in FireFox and Chrome (I just have to add a few lines using the addEvent function to make it compatible with IE).
The effect looks a lot nicer when I add a function that makes the visibility of the radio buttons hidden.
However, I want to make sure that there is a fallback option in case the functions that color the cells don't work for whatever reason. I would not want the radio buttons hidden in this case.
Is there a method whereby I can call the "hideRadiobuttons" function only if the other functions are successfully executed?
with jquery, i try to get the margin-left ($('#mydiv').css('margin-left'), but the function return 0px, unable to retrieve the good value (auto) anyone has idea to retrieve the value "auto" when margin-left is "auto" ?
I'm very new to jQuery, only picked it up yesterday, so there is very little I understand at the moment. I have a website on which I would like to display a real time, time-series chart displaying results from a database that is constantly updated. how to pull live data from my database and display it in an alert box on my sight. One of the replies said I should use jquery to achieve this.
Afternoon all, Have a pretty simple function, that requests a number to be entered. I want to return that number, but i seem to be typing something wrong in the return value.
function newFunction(a, b) { var newArray = new Array(a); for (var i = 0; i < 5; i = i + 1)
I am populating a field on my page using a php include. I am asking javascript to update another element with that field's value. The value written to the select input box is Ƈ:Any Provider'. The process works fine in Firefox. In IE6 it does not write. the value nor does it throw an error. What am I doing wrong?
function postthis(){ var provider = document.inputForm['provider'].value; var report = document.getElementById("status"); var message="The Value of Provider Block is: " + provider; report.innerHTML = message; }
In firefox, "The Value of Provider Block is: 1:Any Provider" is written in the report element. In IE6, "The Value of Provider Block is : " is written in the report element.
I know the answer must be yes, but I am really having a hard time figuring this out. I have a simple script below, that calculates age (I know I need to do some more work). I want to redisplay the value returned from the function. It works OK, because the result displays correctly in the alert. Code:
I have a form and a submit button .on clicking submit button function validate call.this function call another function (say func) .this func function vallidates some input and return true or false value to the validate function this then return true or false value to the submit button .I want that func directly return true or false to the submit button.
This function allows you to generate a Dynamic ComboBox via another combox selected. That is, it generates a combobox according to the one you selected first, as a filter. But consegigo not change the variable "uf" to "select ". When I change this variable appears the following error message: Notice: Undefined index: in uf cidades.php on line 5
I got a problem with passing dynamic DIV ID. I was doing some a php page which retrieved data from database and put into according DIV tag like this:
<DIV id="variabl1">msg1</td>; Since there were tens of records in the table in database, the result would become: <DIV id="variabl1">msg1</td>; <DIV id="variabl2">msg2</td>; <DIV id="variabl100">msg100</td>;
I got a JQuery script to show a specific message when a user moved his mouse over a DIV, say if he moved his mouse over DIV ID 1, a msg would pop up showing message.
I have a multiple choice quiz that works fairly well. However, instead of it presenting "End of Quiz" message when last question is completed I need it to take the user back to the beginning (question 1) but with no indication to the user that this has been done. How can I adjust the code to have it do this?
<script language="JavaScript1.1"> var whichone=1 var tempmn=document.quiz.thequestion function generatequestions(){ document.quiz.theresponse.selectedIndex=0
