Randomly Changing Color Of Specified Text On Page Reload

Jul 9, 2009

I am currently successfully using the following code to randomly change the color of specified text ("quotations" - see below) each time the page is reloaded. The only problem is that the colors are too random. Instead of the code I now have, I'm looking for code that would allow me to define a distinct list of colors through which the text would randomly rotate each time the page loads. In other words, I want to choose each of the randomly loaded colors of my text.

<html><head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var quotations = new Array()
quotations[1]= "text1"
quotations[2]= "text2"
quotations[3]= "text3"
quotations[4]= "text4"
quotations[5]= "text5"
function display(){
a=Math.floor(Math.random()*quotations.length)
document.getElementById('quotation').innerHTML=quotations[a]
setTimeout("display()",500000) .....
}
</script>

<script language="Javascript">
function rancolour(){
var red = Math.floor(Math.random() * 255);
var green = Math.floor(Math.random() * 255);
var blue = Math.floor(Math.random() * 255);
document.all.main.style.color = 'rgb('+red+','+green+','+blue+')';
}
</script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/style.css">
</head><body>
<body onLoad="rancolour();">
<div id="main" style="color:#FF0062">
<div id="quotation"><SCRIPT type="text/javascript">display()</SCRIPT></div>
<form onchange="display(this.value)">
<input type="submit" id="style3" value="M O R E" />
</form></div></div></body></html>

Window.location.reload Behaves Randomly?

Aug 6, 2010

i am invoking window.opener.location.reload function from a pop up window to reload the parent page. But this seems to behave randomly. Sometimes the reload would preserve form data eg. the state of the drop down lists. On some other occasions, it would reset all the drop down lists and form data. Does window.location.reload resend form data to the server?

Changing Background Color Of Text Box

Feb 3, 2009

So I'm trying to change the background color of a textbox depending on how many characters are enter (putting it green/red depending on count), and I'm having a hell of a time. There are 50 different textbox IDs on the page (give or take, dynamically generated), each unique/sequentially numbered (id1, id2 ... id50).Now I'm not that good with Javascript, but this is what I can up with so far.I was trying to use 'this.id' so I wouldn't have to name each of the IDs.

Changing The Text Color Of An Input Element (IE)?

Jan 9, 2007

How on earth do you use javacript to change the text color of an input element, and have it work with IE??? I've tried numerous solutions. All of them work on browsers such as Mozilla. But none of them work on IE.

This works in every browser I've tried besides IE:

var whatever = document.createElement( 'input' );
whatever.type = 'text'
// (more code)...
whatever.style.color = 'black'

This also works for other browsers besides IE:

whatever.style.cssText = 'color:black;'

I've tried other things as well. Nothing works in IE. Is there anyway
to change the text color inside an input box dynamically, and have it
work in IE?

Changing Color Of Default Textarea Text?

Aug 30, 2009

Anyways I have a textarea that I have managed through the magic of google to have the default text clear out with the onfocus and if the textarea is left blank to put the default text back in with onblur. I now have a new problem that is a little CSS and a little JS I suppose. I want the default text in the textarea to be grey and the user submitted text to be black. I know it is possible because... well facebook has it.

<tr>
<td colspan="2">
Invite via Email: <br />
<cftextarea name="emails" cols="50" rows="3" value="Separate Emails by Comma" onclick = "if (this.value == 'Separate Emails by Comma') this.value = '';" onblur = "if (this.value == '') this.value = 'Separate Emails by Comma';" ></cftextarea>
</td>
</tr>

I don't actually have to put the text in the JS Function, but to have it pull the default text from attribute that would be awesome to.

Randomly Changing Set Multiple Images

Feb 25, 2006

Im trying to design a website at the moment...
and i dont know the first thing about javascript...

Basically what i want to do is have 6 images change randomly on load of the webpage...

Basically i have:

- 1 main image
- 1 logo
- 4 buttons

Now these buttons all have a certain colour in them...
Each one is different... (green, blue, orange, purple)

So when someone loads the webpage i need all the images to change randomly...

BUT, here comes the hard part for me...

I need the images to all change together...

So i dont have a green button, a red logo, a blue main image...

As they are randomly changing on load of the page, i need them to all change together... so there are 6 RED images...

Next time they load, there are 6 green images...

Its essential that colours are not mixed...

JQuery :: AddClass - Change The Color Of Surrounding Text Of The Disabled Radio Button To The Color Grey

Feb 8, 2010

I have this markup:

[Code]...

There are two radio buttons, sometimes one will be disabled, other times the other will be disabled. I would like to make a script that: First: Changes the color of surrounding text of the disabled radio button to the color grey. Second: Checks the other radio button.

This was my plan: I would make a script that: First: Removes all the current classes and add the class "greyed_out" (or better: change only the color of) the parent element, all siblings and children of siblings (if any) of the radio button that is disabled at that time.Second: Sets the attribute "checked to the other radio button". I made a script, but when I set the bottom radio button to disabled the script doesn't work:

JQuery :: Taming The Farbtastic Color-picker Space - Clicking The Trigger Makes The Page Text Fade

Dec 28, 2010

The Farbtastic color picker is an elegant solution to the color-picking problem, but its usefulness is prohibitive in those situations where there is not enough screen real-estate. Because it is large, these are many. Since I want to use it in such a situation, I started working towards a solution.

The designed solution involved in clicking on something small, such as Click to Activate, and having the rest of the page become faded-out, while the color-picker appears superimposed over other parts of the page.

That solution is implemented up to a point. In the code posted:

- The trigger appears as part of the original DOM.,
- Clicking the trigger makes the page text fade, the color-picker appear, and the trigger changes to something like Click to Deactivate,
- Upon clicking, it does disappear, and the page text resumes it original appearance..

After this point, one might work towards making it more modular and more easily usable as is farbtastic itself.

It requires a var to hold state, and other things. Ideally, it could be combined with the original to offer a wider range of usage patterns. I have no doubt that the code can vastly be improved, since I am relatively new to jquery, although not to computing.

The code is posted below, in the hope that it proves useful to others, The only change made to the farbtastic.js code itself is to add "id='fbc' " to the outermost <div which is added internally. This change is not shown because it would involve posting all of farbtastic.js for this one change. The section of text used to illustrate presumed page content is from the NSIS Users Manual, and has no significance beyond being some text. The div named 'overlay' was employed to allow shifting the whole thing around as a unit relative to the trigger but might be eliminated were that not needed, since everything else works without it, Note also that the input#color from the original farbtastic has been replaced by 'repeater' which is a <div, but seems to work ok to get the color info.
