Create A Virtual Library - Make A Random Number Of Books Pop Out On Mouse Over?
Jun 7, 2011
I have a background that is a shelf full of books, I wanted to figure out what I would need to do in order to make a random number of books pop out on mouse over (individually), and upon click have the book pulled out and be flipped through and read like a book. Would I have to recreate the library picture completely to make the random books moveable? And would I have to create the books that I want to move from the bookshelf?
how to pull the book out from the book shelf so that it looks like it's coming towards me and then to make it look like it has been pulled out. Would I need to use animation for this? What would be the parts to the animation required?
A little background on my knowledge of javascript: I understand the concepts of it and can understand it when I read it or its explained to me. I am looking to create something as simple as I can, I thought having a background and something basic like a few books be able to pop out. When I realized css couldn't do this and css3 wasn't supported by most browsers I turned to javascript and have been trying to figure out the steps I would need to do to do this specifically.

I started studying javascript when I decided that I wanted to create a dynamic webpage after viewing some books that were made to pageflip with Javascript and after viewing a ton of animations. So I figured since everyone keeps saying Javascript is simple that if all I wanted to do was to make a book extend outwards on mouseover and then open up on click and flip pages which they already have a code for that it wouldn't be so difficult. I've read everything I could practiced a little bit, I'm not fluent but I do have a goal and a time. The problem for me comes up with figuring out what I need to do in order to make it appear as if the book is coming out of a book shelf. There is a lot of information on animations where flat objects rise above clouds.
I am thinking that I would have to use some sort of sprite of a row of books both sorta sideways where you can see the side of the book as well as the edge, and both a row of books on a shelf, or perhaps a row of books with some of the books being pulled out and then on mouse over animate the scene so that it looks like the book is being pulled out. Would that work? Or is there a simpler way? Another way or I don't know. Is there a code that can make it look like a book is extending outwards without an animation or would I need to create an animation for that?

How would I go about creating a random number between 1-50 that COULD include whole numbers, decimals to the tenth, hundredth and the thousandth place?
Ex) 2.145, 3, 5.8, 41.002, 10.12, 7, 18.023, 33.2
Also, if the only way to do it is to put trailing zeros to the thousandth place that's fine as well
Ex) 2.145, 3.00, 5.800, 41.002, 10.120, 7.00, 18.023, 33.200

I am trying to make a random number between 1 and 1,000. I have a code that seems to work correctly, but I don't completely understand it and after looking online I think it might be wrong. Code: var rnd = Math.floor(Math.random()*999)

I'm having to write a program that generates a random number between 1-1000 and then allows the user to make guesses in a text box, answering to high or to low, until the correct answer is entered. I had the program working fine with using strictly prompts and alerts but when I tried to create a form I started having trouble.

I am so stuck on making a virtual keyboard using jquery. I found a great tutorial on nettuts however it requires you to click the letters on the virtual keyboard instead of using your actual keyboard and typing it. Does anybody know any tutorials that offer that or any suggestions? I know i have to use the keydown method but I really don't understand it. Here is an example of what it is suppose to be.

First off I'm incredibly new to JavaScript and its likely I am going about this completely the wrong way. But gotta start somewhere. Also my apologise if I am posting in the wrong area.
Here's my problem. I have setup a site in CSS3/XHTML that I will use to display some of my photography (im a keen photographer) The way my Gallery will work will be using Submenu's then there will be a table of Thumbnails which I have setup.
The part I am stuck on is that I want people to be able to click the thumbnails and then the corresponding picture held in the next folder to be displayed in a CSS defined container in the center of the page.
So clicking _Images/Thumbnails/1.gif will bring up _/Images/1.gif in the CSS container For the life of me I cannot work out how to do it though. Here is my code so far.

My first question is about whether I should use a library like jQuery for my events and other stuff in javascript. I guess I sort of feel guilty because it makes things easier, and I should be learning the hard way without jQuery. When coding websites professionally, do designers use jQuery and other libraries? Do they make the page run slower? I feel like I'm taking the easy way out...
My second question is more of a re-assurance issue. I see all the glorified ads about how you can easily make your webpages with these wonderful programs. They're not going to but HTML jockies out of business, right? I just don't want to learn a language that won't be useful and have a demand in the job market. I'm probably just worrying too much and I'm sure the programs aren't as great as they say they are.

I'm having trouble using the stop() function. I'm trying to make a dynamic menu using jquery library. This menu is now working pretty correctly but I can't manage the problem of multiple queued animations. My menu is made in two parts. The first one contains buttons. When they're hovered over, the second level of the menu appears just underneath. But when several buttons of the first menu are hovered over, I can't stop the second level to appear and disappear anarchically. Here is an example of code of the second menu :
<div class ="menu_deroulant">
<!-- ######## Menu Déroulant niveau 1
|| Accueil ####### !-->
<div id ="menu_deroulant_accueil">
<div class
="nom_speedbarre"
>Accueil</div>
<ul>
<li ><a href="***.php" .....

My table columns are sorted by the Tablekit library [URL]. The user can click the columns to toggle the sort order either ascendingly or descendingly. I can save the current sort order (preference) in the server. After the page is refreshed, the web page is sorted by the original sort order. How to make the Tablekit library to sort with the current sort order after page refresh? My web page column is:
<th class="sortfirstdesc" id="urgency" onClick="reverseOrder($sortdesc)">ID</th>

I am using GreaseMonkey to load jQuery 1.3.2 (there is a bug with the latest version of jquery and GM) and jQuery UI 1.8.0.I am using jQuery via GM to manipulate the GUI of a content management system. This CMS uses its own JS library to dynamically add stuff to the dom.
Question:How can I target a dom element that was added to the dom via this other JS lib?In other words, the CMS will add a div to the dom, and I am not sure how to tell jquery to wait for these elements to "be there" before applying the jquery goodness. Specifically, I would like to do this:
$(function() {
$('#zen1227').resizable();
});
But "#zen1227" does not "appear" until later via this other JS library.

I have several classes named 'ratings_colored'. They all contain a number from 1 to 10. If the number is below 5.5, the number should become red. If not it should become green.
The code below works, but if the first .ratings_colored is higher than 5.5 it will make ALL the classes green. Even the numbers below 5.5! I tried using the 'this' but it didn't work either.
$(document).ready(function () {

I can generate a random number between 1 and 9,
( var rand_no = Math.floor( 1 + Math.random() * 9 ); )
but I want to add that random number to a value that is enterred into an inputbox and get a total. How can I do this using Javascript and put the result into a hidden field. I will also need to use that same random number in another place on another form .

I'm trying to apply something in my forums, where a member could post something let's say:"Hi, I am number 1, 6"And what would happen is that, a number from 1 to 6 would be the content, for example, it would be:"Hi, I am number 3"But if you refresh the page, it would still be the same number. Like it won't be randomized again.So how do I make a javascript/html code that would make a one time number randomizer.

In the forum, it usually talked about generating a number between 1 or 0 to that certain value using something like Math.round(Math.random() * 200); or Math.floor(Math.random() * 200);
But what do you do if you want to generate a number between 201 and 400.

I set myself the task of creating a button which, when pressed, switches the background color randomly. It seems to work well enough but the random number it works from only generates once at page load.As a workaround, I added a second 'Reset Page' button, but I really want just one button that switches the page color every time you prod it. Any ideas how to reset the random number to achieve this?Here's the code.

In http:www.dreaminco...wtopic51264.htm a code was proposed for generating a random number within an array and then printing it into the html document using document.write.Is it possible to go one step ahead and feeding the result into an html href function?

All the numbers should match. It's not working right in any version of IE I test it in (6, 7 and 8). I'm also using jQuery, fyi.When you click the button to stop the numbers, I'm setting a variable named winner to a number (3, 4 or 5). Right now, I have it set to 5. This number determines how many of the slots match:[code]I'm then generating a random number (0-8) to base all the other numbers off of . Three numbers will always match, so I'm setting two more variables to match that random number.[code]Then I do some conditionals to check the value of winner. If it's 4, I set the 4th number to random number, then generate a random number for the 5th spot while it doesn't equal randomnum. I do something similar if winner is set to 5.[code]The goto trigger sends the scroll to the specified index according to slotnum(1-5).I'm waiting to hear back from the plugin developer to see if it's something to do with that.However, I just want to make sure my logic in generating those numbers is sound. It works perfectly in FF, Opera and Chrome but (surprise!) not in any of the IEs (tested in 6, 7 and 8).

I am trying to make it so that when you press a button it prints out a random number. This is what I currently have:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function randomnumber(randomForm){
var x=Math.floor(Math.random()*11);
document.write(x);
}
</script>
<FORM>
<INPUT type="button" value="Print Number" name="button1" onClick="randomnumber(this.form)">
</FORM>
When I click on the button it just clears all the text from the page and clears the bgcolor. A random number then appears at the top left corner. I am trying to make it so that when I press the button it prints out a random number just above or below the button. Is this possible? if so how do you set it up?

I am trying to generate random number within a range. My code at the moment is
Code:
var uppermax = 100; var uppermin = 10; var upperdiff = uppermax - uppermin; var lowermax = 10; var lowermin = 0; var lowerdiff = lowermax - lowermin; var rand = Math.floor(upperdiff + 1) * Math.random() + uppermin; alert(rand);
I know math.floor is supposed to round down to the nearest integer, but the generator is still coming back with a float.
