Random Quote Generator Script (For Uni Project)?
Jul 19, 2011
I have to create a website as a project for my university course. Said course has nothing at all to do with computers really so it's really throwing us into the deep end as the majority of us have/had no interest in this particular field.
Regardless, I am creating a website that uses the Random Quote Generator Javascript that I copied from the Hotscripts website. The code details are below and my question is: is there any way I could change the formatting for each quote? For example, change quote 1 to be, say, yellow or bold and change quote 3 to be aligned right and blue? I mainly want to change the colour for each quote but having any other info on how to format it would be really helpful.
var quotes=new Array();
quotes[0] = "This is quote 1.";
quotes[1] = "This is quote 2.";
quotes[2] = "This is quote 3.";

i need, requires a little extra tweaking. Its a price quote generator (package price x number of pages = price) However if the customer has more pages over a set amount (2000) the package price changes. So the formula becomes (package price x pages (upto 2000) = price + number of pages over 2000 x new package price = Total price. Does that make sense?
So i can do a flat rate with this code but if anyone has suggestions on how to do the rest? I would be eternaly grateful as my head really hurts.
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function update(){
var price = document.getElementById("Package").value;
var pages = document.getElementById("pages").value;
var Tprice = (price * pages).toFixed(2) ;

I have a piece of code that randomly picks a line from a preset list and displays it whenever the page is loaded. I'm using it to generate random quotes on my pages.
At the moment, there seems to be a good chance that when the page loads no quote appears at all, just a blank space.
Anyone know why this could be happening?code...

I have a problem with a random link generator within a DIV. When I try it on my desktop it works fine, but does nothing once I upload it to the website.how to explain what happens, but here is it, more or less:The website is this: http:[url]....
Via an Ajax script, http:[url]..... is loaded into DIV "menu". Here's the script:
<script type="text/javascript">
ajaxpage('menu.html', 'menu') //load "menu.html" into "menu" DIV
</script>
Well, there's another load of stuff inside the <head> tag. You may see it from the main page source code.Anyway, if you go to the menu.html, the link generator will work there as it is intended; however, if you try it from the main page, it won't do anything. But people are not suppossed to go to menu.html. They are suppossed to load it from the index.html (I mean, plain http:url....)So, here's the link generator code:
---------------------------------
<script type="text/javascript">
function randomlinks(){[code].....
I believe this could be solved if I could target the generator to the whole window, 'cause maybe it's trying to open the new page inside the DIV. Well, I don't know...

I am trying to take code that I have and change it to be called from an XML file.
Right now I have random quote and random author arrays stored in an external .js file. And then a function to make everything random. Then I have it called and modified using the innerhtml method. All of this works fine and I will be including that code.
Now I want to modify this and change it to where I can store my quotes and my quote authors in an xml file. Then called through the JS. (more info under this code)

I haven't really used javascript before except for the odd snippet, and I was wondering if anyone can help me with a problem I have:
I need a script that chooses a phrase at random from 4 pre-defined lists of phrases, and does it all from the one page - rather than a separate page and a separate script for each pre-defined list of phrases.
I hope this is clear enough! Here is an example to illustrate what I mean:
This would be the text that appears on the webpage:
Click here for random Phrase Type 1
Click here for random Phrase Type 2
Click here for random Phrase Type 3
Click here for random Phrase Type 4
When clicking the first option, it only chooses from pre-defined list #1, the second option only chooses from pre-defined list #2, and so on.
It then displays the randomly generated phrase in one separate box, no matter what pre-defined list was chosen. (Although if each phrase has to be displayed in 4 separate boxes, that'd be ok too.)

Code:
<table border = "2">

I've looked everywhere for a random number generator which doesn't repeat. Tried loads and none have seemed to work.I'm making a quiz, 5 questions so far.This button, in html, generates the next random Q:But I need a random generator which fires them off only once. Anyone have suggestions for a non-repeating random number gen which will work? Even the one now seems to have some slight error associated with it. The one's ive tried so far haven't worked..

I am taking a Javascript class and the teacher assigned this: Quote: Write a script that uses a random number generation to create sentences and name it sentences.html. Use five arrays of strings called: uppercase article (uarticle), noun, verb, lowercase article (larticle), and preposition. You will need to use the correct case for the article arrays. Create a sentence by selecting a word at random from each array in the following order: uarticle, noun, verb, preposition, larticle, noun. You can find examples of generating random numbers in both Fig. 8.6 (dice-rolling) and Fig. 8.7 (random image) of Chapter 8.
The arrays should be filled at minimum, as follows: the article array(s) should contain the articles: the, a, one, some and any. The noun array should contain the nouns: boy, girl, dog, town and car. The verb array should contain the verbs: drove, jumped, ran, walked, and skipped. The preposition array should contain the prepositions: to, from, over, under and on. If you would like to add more words, adjust the arrays appropriately.

I'd like to have a js random image (1 out of 4) load each time a user visits my page. Along with that image, I'd like a specific quote and sub heading (text) to appear -the quote can be text or another graphic.In other words, if random image '1' is loaded, 'quote 1' (text or another graphic) and 'sub head 1' (html text) is loaded, if random image '2' is loaded, 'quote 2' and 'sub head 2' (html text) is loaded, and so on...

My assignment is to create an online quiz with a random image generator. I have created my online quiz using 5 linking files and everything works great. My only problem is getting the images to show up on my quiz. All I get is the filename with a red X. Which the files do show up at random when I refresh, so I know that part is working. I just don't know what I am missing to get the actual picture to show up. Please keep in mind this isn't the whole code as I have different linking files for this assignment.

I have used the below code, found on a forum from 2006, to generate a random image on my website with a link and accompanying text.The image works fine, the link that goes with each image is fine.Problem is: the text beneath the image does not match the image and link. This seems to be generated as a separate random element. Can anyone tell me how I can make my site display image 1 + link 1 + quotation 1?

actually i am working on a project "random password generator". What basically is to be done in this project is to generate user password for the username randomly he has provided. Then, this password is to be stored in a text file in the following manner
UserName Password
ABCD JU12H6
Sdjksj HJudfdsfd
Now my problem is that every time I just try to generate a new password, either a new file is made or the heading is rewritten again and again or if I just try to change the variables true and false, then the username and password headings are not printed. Please help. If someone knows how to do this using if-else method then please tell me, how it can be done? The code is attached.

I have a div on my page with an id of "quote". It contains a quotation and an image of the person who made it, like so:
<div id="quote">
<blockquote>Quotation blah blah blah<p>Joe Bloggs</p></blockquote>
<img src="joe_bloggs.jpg" alt="Joe Bloggs">
</div>
I'd like to make the quote dynamic so that a different quote and accompanying image is shown at random when the page is refreshed.

this script lists the basic elements of a word and chooses a random word structure to make the word pronouncable... or... at least 50% of them ;). I'm sure there is a way to do this to cut down on the code... but here goes anyway...
<script>
/****************************************

****************************************/
var letters = "bcdfghjklmnprstvwxyz";
var vowels = "aeiou";
groups = new Array();
groups[0]="th";
groups[1]="ch";
groups[2]="sh";
// groups[3]="qu";
function generate(number) {
// randomize letters
var vowel1 = vowels.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random()*vowels.length));
var group1 = groups[Math.floor(Math.random()*groups.length)];
var letter1 = letters.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random()*letters.length));
var vowel2 = vowels.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random()*vowels.length));
var group2 = groups[Math.floor(Math.random()*groups.length)];
var letter2 = letters.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random()*letters.length));
var vowel3 = vowels.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random()*vowels.length));
var group3 = groups[Math.floor(Math.random()*groups.length)];
var letter3 = letters.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random()*letters.length));
var vowel4 = vowels.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random()*vowels.length));
var group4 = groups[Math.floor(Math.random()*groups.length)];
var letter4 = letters.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random()*letters.length));
// specify the structure of the words (in order for them to be pronouncable)
// feel free to add your own...
structure = new Array();
structure[0]=letter1+vowel1+letter2+letter3+vowel2+letter4+vowel3+group1;
structure[1]=group1+vowel1+letter1+letter2+vowel2+letter3;
structure[2]=group1+vowel1+letter1+letter2+vowel2+group2;
structure[3]=group1+vowel1+letter1+vowel2+"s";
structure[4]=vowel1+group1+vowel2+letter1+vowel3;
structure[5]=group1+vowel1+letter1+vowel2+group2;
structure[6]=vowel1+group1+vowel2+letter1;
var password=structure[Math.floor(Math.random()*structure.length)];
if (number==1) {
document.passform.passbox.value=password+Math.floor(Math.random()*100)
}
else {
document.passform.passbox.value=password;
}
}

I have a drop down box that selects a project name. This is then taken to a javascript function that is supposed to fill in a read-only box with that name, but instead of filling it in with the project name, it fills it in with the project ID, which is how the sql database is set up. Each project has an ID, a name, and other values. Is there a way I can get the project name given the project ID in the javascript function?

My assignment for my programming class is to create a script using JavaScript that asks a user to enter a number in a pop up dialog box on their browser, and then tell them if they entered an odd or an even number. This is what I have come up with so far, whenever I test it on a browser it says that every number is even.
