The code below is the relevant part to an autosuggest feature. The variable that isn't being passed is "firstValidIndex". It is being set appropriately, but when it is used in "sortArray()", its value is 0.
// here we must check to see if where the string matched was at the beginning of a string inside this.aNames
// firstValidIndex is the first index where the char is at the beginning of a string
I am trying to call a function from a link or button like the example below, however I would like to call the function whilst passing a variable along (not a string).
This isn't my code, it is a simple way of explaining what I am trying to do.
<html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function myfunction(txt){
[Code]....
So instead of 'java too!' I would have a variable named "category" which could contain different data each time the button is pressed.
I am writing one function for product of two number. I am sending two textbox name with appending its rowid as variable to the function.will it possible to pass this dynamic variable to any function ? In below code, On event Onkeydown, I am calling funcion product with three iput dynamic variable. when i run this code,html page does not show any rows in grid.
I am writing a Javascript to sort and write out some stuff. PHP is not an option so I need to get this script working.
The problem arises when I want to make a link to the next page. (i.e. Like the link in google for the next 10 results)
I have <a href=# onclick=FUNCTION(VALUES)> written dynamically by the script.
It is written onto the document correctly, but the problem is, when the link is clicked, some seemingly random values are passed to the function.
I also have an invalid character error that arises when I pass the "whereVARquoted" variable into my function (code 2) which disappears when the variable is removed (code 1).
I am creating a form in which a checkbox is checked based on specific info from previous page.The info I am passing is the client ID (which is a number I can pass in the URL variable)In the form I have a list of clients (with checkboxes next to them)Now if you come from a specific client page the checkbox with the client name should be already checked since you are getting info regarding that client, with the option of selecting other clients..So how I get a specific checkbox checked based on a specific variable?
I've come across functions like the one below in many scripts.I just don't understand the purpose of the parameter! Nothing is being passed into the function when it's being called- so what's the point of specifying an argument???
function doSomething(e) { if (!e) var e = window.event; alert(e.type);[code].....
I am making a drop down menu in javascript using a function in an external js file. Problem is in FF error console it keeps coming up that my ID that's being called in getElementByID in the function is not defined. Please help if you can, why is saying my ID is undefined??
I'm trying to reuse a script I have but, I'm not able to due to the fact I can't use some variables in a function.
I would like to know why I am not able to use passed variables in javascript.
For example: I call a function submit_data( 'newDomainForm', 'add_domain', 'list_div' ), in the function itself I would like to use the form name (first variable passed) as document.form.domain_name.value.
Later on I would like to use the div id: list_div in document.getElementById( div_id ).innerHTML. This doesn't work.
I have to put the name of the actual div like this: document.getElementById( 'result' ).innerHTML
And to get the value of a form element I have to put the actual name like this:
I have a form button with id="submit". When pressed, ClickGeocode(credentials) is called. This works fine and dandy with: $('submit").click(ClickGeocode) Despite there being no indication that the function takes an argument 'credentials'. So when I want to call the function at some point in my code, I should be able to do something like ClickGeocode(credentials) ... no? However, my issue is that credentials isn't once defined in my code - it is part of Bing Maps function... like so:
function ClickGeocode(credentials) { map.getCredentials(MakeGeocodeRequest); }
So why does it work using .click(), and how can I call the function without user interaction (simply somewhere in my code) even if 'credentials' is not defined?
This is the first question I couldn't find answered by Google! No doubt the answer is out there, but...
So I have a function that is being passed an array of nodes: some of them plain vanilla DOM nodes, (say, those created by document.createElement), others are jQuery nodes (say $("<div></div>").
What's the best way to determine if a node is of each type? I can obviously look at the node contents, but I wondered if there was a "best practices" here?
I have just started using the data functions in jQuery for keeping track of a few items on the client. The user can click on links, which call a function that updates the display and stored data value.I am storing data as a set of columns, named c1, c2, c3 etc.
I update the relevant column like this function UpdateCol(column) {
New to JS. Have ordered some new books, but need to get somethings going in the mean time. What I wanted to do is to link to a new page having a date range input in the form of 6 text boxes, 2 sets of mm-dd-yy, from and to, where the upon loading the page box 1 of the from would auto focus and then auto tab and then post where php could take over on the server side. Setting up the form and the lay out, no problem. Auto focusing went just like expected using the following code, included because on the next step everything fell apart.
So then the wheels came off and in response, began to simplify what was trying to be done to find where the issues were. As far as I can get working is: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "[URL]"> <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript" > window.onload=function() { document.getElementById("input1").focus(); } </script> <script type="text/javascript" > function myFunc() { alert("is this working"); } </script> </head> <body> <input id="input1" name="input1" type="text" onkeyup="myFunc()" maxlength="2" value="type a No." /> </body> </html>
First issue with this: When I first get to the page everything is just as ordered. The focus is on the text box and the default value is "type a No." When I press a key onkeyup, I bring up the alert box with "is this working" in it. But when I refresh the page with the refresh button, after clicking the "ok" on the alert box, the character that was typed in is still displayed. If I use the link to the page, or the URL from the address bar, then the page reloads properly with the default value, "type a No".
How do you get the default textbox value using the refresh button as apposed to reloading the page using a link or from the address bar? Using Firefox 8.0 more important at the moment: If I change the script to pass an argument to the function the script crashes. It does not pull up an alert box and freezes. My guess is that I'm doing something wrong on a concept level. Changed the default value of the text box to " ". Looked like to me there was an issue with the size specification and the default string length as you could only enter in a key stroke by highlighting the text and replacing it.
I want to call a javascript function when a <span> is clicked, pass two variables to it, and then use jquery to hide that span.
A simple example is:
The variables (1,3) & (8,9) are loaded dynamically with a php script. Adding the two variables together isn't the intent of the script, but it seems the simplest way to explain what i'm after.
So how do you get $(this) to work in a function that has to have variables passed to it?

I have <a href=# onclick=FUNCTION(VALUES)> written dynamically by the script.
It is written onto the document correctly, but the problem is, when the link is clicked, some seemingly random values are passed to the function.
When you run the code, the first alert will show all the values that a were passed to the function. The second and third will show what was written to the document.
If you try clicking the next button after the code loads, the values that result will be unusual.
How do i use a function to find the average of the values in an array of numbers passed as argument to a function.(using java script) thank you for your help...
im not sure now to word it, or how to do it, im a php coder not a javascript -.-but here it is, basicly i have one ajax file and wish to use it for everypage,i tryed to do it so i can just call one function for all ajax uses, but forms seem to be thowing me off when i call it, i stat if its a form or a element,
function ajax(str, b, c) { a = b; type = c; if (type === 'form') {
[code].....
in this, the variable a is set as the id of the elemnt/form, it works fine for elemnts, but not for forms,i think this is because its thinking a is the id, not the variable,
I've looked extensively for the answer to this but suspect my inexperience means I'm using the wrong "keywords" in searches, or the answer involves jquery beyond my comprehension.
I have script experience and have plug-in galleryView working but have no jQuery experience which is the problem.
The script:
<script type="text/javascript"> name = getValue("name"); $(document).ready(function(){
[Code]....
Variable name contains data stripped from the page URL (www.url.com?name=3). I want to use this variable in the jquery array/list passed into the galleryView instead of the number 3. How can this be achieved? I suspect this could be done entirely in jquery (if I had the experience) or via the getdata script used above?
I have 2 javascript files: 1 containing generic functions for my site used sitewide and another for a particular web page containing just the javascript for that page. The page is also calling the jQuery javascript file.
What I want to do is have a javascript function in my main javascript file which uses features of jQuery such as show, hide etc. and then I want to call this javascript function from the other page specific javascript file.
[Code]...
This does not work and so was wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction as to how to achieve this or something similar.
I try to make something where you add elements, and can delete elements later by calling a simple function. I simplyfied it right here: It works only to add the paragraphs, but the delete function doesn't work. Tried already to debug with an alert message after each rule... but the problem is with this rule I guess:
