Javascript, Forms, And Counting Occurences Of Identical Names
Sep 2, 2003
I'm trying to make a form where a user can check boxes, and depending on if certain boxes have been checked, other boxes will grey out or un-grey.
What the code does is look at the checkbox name and depending on the family (f), and whether or not the box is a child (c) or a parent (p), the code will grey out certain boxes.
Now that I've sat back and thought about the code, I think there is probably a better way to achieve what I want. Maybe I can specify checkbox names instead of doing the parent child hierarchy that i'm trying. Code:

I am trying to adapt a script for use validating a drop-down menu in a form.
The script works fine in my lttle demo. In the head of the page I've got...
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function checkList() {
var testForm = document.testForm;
if (testForm.demoSelect[testForm.demoSelect.selectedIndex].value == "") {
alert("Please make a valid selection from the list.");
return false;
}
}
</script>
And then in the body...
HTML Code:
<form action="demo.php" method="post" name="testForm" id="testForm" onSubmit="return checkList();">
<p>
demo select menu
<select name="demoSelect" id="demoSelect">
<option value="" selected>Please Select</option>
<option value="1">Attrib1</option>
<option value="2">Attrib2</option>
<option value="3">Attrib3</option>
</select>
</p>
<p>Submit
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</p>
</form>
No problem, works fine. The problem is that I am trying to apply this code to a PHP page in osCommerce where the name of the drop-down menu (i.e. demoSelect) is generated dynamically. It is only for use in one particular situation where I know the name of the drop-down menu is generated as id[1] but it wont work when I replace the demoSelect for id[1].
I'm only really beginner with JS but I guess it's because JavaScript identifies id[1] as an array? Is this right and any ideas how I can correctly identify my drop-down to JS?

Say I have some variables setup like so;
<script type='text/javascript'>
<!--
panelsArray = new Array("form0","form3","form4","form5","blotter");
var blotter = new Array(འ',騦',魒',饼','block','');
var form0 = new Array(餢',ཱི',骹',餑','block','');
var form3 = new Array(鰌',ྀ',馅',飣','block','');
var form4 = new Array(鮵',髧',駨',飶','block','');
var form5 = new Array(Ɔ',Ɔ',魽',饻','block','');
// -->
</script>
and I want to parse the first array and then within that loop I want to get the variable name from the 'outer' array and then reference the contents of the array with that name... I was trying to do the following but it doesn't work, I'm obviously missing something about transmogrifying the text "form0" into a variable name...
for(f=0;f<panelsArray.length;f++) {
thisPanel = panelsArray[f];
alert(thisPanel);
thisPanelWidth = thisPanel[0]
alert(thisPanelWidth);
}

I am having difficulty using javascript to validate form fields with whitespaces in the element names (ex: First Name, Last Name).
here's a code snippet:
###
function validate(formObj) {
if (document.form1.Payment Method.checked){
do something here...}
###
the problem is that javascript won't read the element "Payment Method" unless i mash the name into one word. (i don't want to do that because i later use the element names to provide a printable customer receipt
i tried using the ascii octal number for a whitespace in the above code (...form1.Payment40Method.checked...), but to no avail.

I'm trying to create a simple birthDate form. Depending on the month selected, it will populate the days field. Then once the day is selected it will populate the years field.
I want the years to start @ 2008 and end @ 1900. But I cant get the count to stop at 1900, it will go right down to 1. Can someone take a look at my populateYears() function and see where I have gone wrong? Code:

I'm having some trouble naming variables in javascript. Actually, my html has multiple form names (form, form1, form2, etc..., and im just having trouble understanding how to access elements within.For example: I get error:Message: 'document.forms.form.bname' is null or not an objectWhen I use the following code:
var bname = document.forms["form"].bname.value;
And when I try this:
var bname = document.form.bname.value;

I am designing a PayPal shopping cart/store for a client and have placed
several of PayPal's shopping cart forms on the page to correspond with
different products. Each form has a unique name though each of the
form's elements have to use PayPal's required naming conventions to pass
the data to their server.
Many of the forms have hard-coded data in them and these have not caused
me any problems. The problems I am having are with 3 forms that need to
send different amounts based on the quantity ordered. I wrote a small
function that worked great on the 1st form but when I created the 2nd
form and wrote the 2nd function, all of the forms that needed to send
conditional amounts broke down and wouldn't work any more. Code:

I am trying to use a regEx to grab Function names and function parameter names from a text entry.
The script is written in javascript and I expect the functions to be in javascript syntax.
For example the code might look like:
Code:
function myFunction1(param1,param2,param3){
some code
}
function myFunction2();
function myFunction3(param);
Whats the best way to accomplish grabbing the function names and parameters?
Should I be breaking it down into multiple regular expressions?

I have this script:
Code JavaScript:
var value = jQuery(this).attr("value");
var value2 = jQuery(".my_form #value2 ").attr("value");
if(value != value2){
var errorcode = "error -" + value + "-";
surrounding_element.attr("class","").addClass(errorcode);
[Code]...
for both elements. So it seems to me that value and value2 are identical. But the 'if' says no.

I have groups of elements that are scattered around my page but have identical id's so that I can reference them all at once (as a group).These elements are sitting inside of an iFrame, that is sitting inside another iFrame (that is building a nested navigation bar).So what I want to do is have a script sitting in the top document that when a button is pressed it will reference those double-nested identical id's and toggle their display.and this is what I have so far...(while testing, I do not have any identical id's)
HTML Code:
<!-- my buttons -->
<form>

I would like to ask if the following is possible.
1) I have one hundred identical links on my page
2) I have a function that changes a clicked link to "display: none" (using the toggle functioon)
Is it possible for me to set it up so that only the link that is clicked (that is, only one element) gets affected? I don't want to click and have all the links disappear.. just the one that was clicked.Would this code below work in all browsers? [code] And secondly, may I ask whats the difference between $("a") and $('a'). I've seen people use single quotation makrs and double. Which is better ??
