Creating Multiple Date Menus

Mar 7, 2010

Im trying to make two sets of drop down menus for a date. Lets call the first set of drop downs Birthday. Birthday would have a drop down for months and a drop down for days. The second set would be called Graduation date and would have a drop down for months and a drop down for days. When you click on the months drop down menu and select a month in the listing, the days drop down automatically fills in how many days are in that month. The trouble Im having is when I have just Birthday on a page, it works with the javascript. But, if I try to put Birthday and Graduation date on the same page only the first set of drop downs on the page work.

I tried naming each separate "select id" and it's corresponding function in the javascript, but what ends up happening is the first set of date drop downs work on the page but for the rest of the date menus, only the "months" work and the days do not populate.

JQuery :: Creating An Extension Plugin To The UI Date Picker Plugin?

Jul 12, 2011

I am creating an extension plugin to the jQuery UI Date Picker plugin mostly to just standardize the options used, as well as to add an icon to open the calendar. I am aware of the plugin's use of an icon trigger, but this will not work, as I am using an icon in my sprite image and not wanting an additional request for a mere icon.

My plugin code:

(
function
(
$
)

[Code]....

This is where it really perplexes me as this code does work to produce the calendar icon. while I could get it to work this way, it is obviously not the better choice as it should be part of the extension plugin and not get repeated in all of my various implementations of the plugin.

Jul 1, 2009

Can assign a new function to a built-in object in Firefox:

But IE and Opera don't have a MouseEvent or HTMLElement that can be set up in the same way. Can you do this in IE or Opera, or just Firefox, and maybe Webkit?

Creating And Deleting Function?

Oct 8, 2009

I've been trying to create a function that creates objects and another function that can delete them when triggered the objects code is generated server side and triggers the function passing the object data. The object data sort of looks like this

<OBJECT id="RandomNumbers" width="0" height="0"
style="position:absolute; left:0;top:0;"
CLASSID="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6"
type="application/x-oleobject">

[Code].....

I've tried a few methods I looked up but whenever I try to get them to work the way I need them they throw errors... It would be very cool if you could also get it under a div tag.

Creating An Existing Function?

Feb 11, 2010

I came across Marijn's helper function again called forEach. It does just what it sounds like it does, and is one of those things one would consider adding to their own personal little library like getElementsByClassName...My question is, I've heard/seen that Mozilla (and only Mozilla at this point) indeed HAVE a forEach function, and I do most of my beginning testing in a recent-stable Mozilla browser, so I'm not 100% sure but I think the Mozilla forEach might work... what happens if I write my own and I keep the name?

So if there's some default forEach that the browser natively understands, and then I have a function in my lib that has the same name, does mine take precedence over the native one, or not? Is it just safer giving libraries slightly weird names so new in-built functions can't possibly interfere?So also, if later browsers end up implementing the newer Javascript (2?) that as I hear, will implement a getElementsByClassName, would this break, or ignore, everyone's pre-made getElementsByClassName, assuming they are called the same name?

Creating A Function Utilising An Array

Nov 20, 2006

I am trying to create a function that adds to specific array, then
checks the array to determine whether to alert 'Yes' or 'No'.

Note this is a simplified version of the function I have created. This
function will be used with different arrays.

function change_value (check_value, array_name, array_number){

if (check_value == 'yes'){
array_name[array_number]='Y'
}
else{
delete array_name[array_number];
}

// check if there is a 'Y' anywhere in the array
if(array_name.length>0){
alert('Yes');
}
else{
alert('No');
}
return array_name;
}

Creating Anonymous Function With Variable?

Mar 20, 2010

I'm having trouble with something that I can't explain outside of an example. Code:

Code:
$js_info_tabs = json_encode($valid_array);
$script = <<<JAVASCRIPT
<script type="text/javascript">//<![CDATA[
function changeTo(id) {

[Code]....

I have the code this way in order to consolidate it since I would prefer to do that instead of checking the selected ID and manually checking against all possible IDs (which works flawlessly, it just takes up about 5x the lines and is not modular). What I have above also works, but there is one fatal flaw:

It seems like the anonymous function that is the onclick for each unselected element becomes "return changeTo(tab + '_id')", but I don't want it to be that. I want the argument to actually be what tab is instead of the variable.

What ends up happening is that after changeTo() is called for the first time, any element you click will result in the last element being the selected one, as if it's using the final value of tab as its return value.

This doesn't make any sense, though, since tab is local, and deleting it before the function exists doesn't work. Deleting elem at the end of the for loop doesn't work. I honestly don't understand what's going on or why it doesn't set the new onclick value correctly.

Basically I just want changeTo(tab + '_id'); to turn into changeTo('MYID_id'); instead, but it simply doesn't do that and I can't figure out a way how.

Date Function

Jul 23, 2005

The problem is, the date displays correctly as a complete date in an
alert box but when I try to build the date from the components (i.e
d.getMonth() etc...) the result is an incorrect date.

How can the date be both correct and incorrect at the same time? The
intial alert(d); displays correctly, but the alert(t + "/" + m + "/" +
y); does not. Code:

Date() Function

Jun 3, 2005

All I'm trying to do is put the current date into a website that I'm currently working on. Here's the code I'm using:

<script language="javascript">
now=new Date()
month=now.getMonth()+1
today=now.getDate()
year=now.getYear()

current=today+"/"+ month+"/"+year
document.write(current)
</script>

The only problem I'm experiencing is that the date is coming out as 3/6/105.

Where is the "1" coming from in the year? How can I get rid of it??

Creating URLs From Function Call Operators

Jul 20, 2005

Is it possible to create URLs from function call operators?

For example, I'm trying to program an onClick function which will load a
webpage in one frame and an image in another, based on the name of the
button which is being clicked. So clicking the button with name="help" will
open "webpages/help_page1.html" in one frame, and "images/help.jpg" in
another.

To do this I was hoping that the following would work, where the function
had been called by

function activate(buttonName) {
webpageURL="webpages/"+buttonName+"_page1.html"
imageURL="images/"+buttonName+".jpg"
parent.frame1.location.href=webpageURL
parent.frame2.picture.src=imageURL
}

But this doesn't work, because the browser (IE6) looks for
"webpages[object]_page1.html" and "images[object].jpg".

Creating An Iframe In Function And Loading Source

Jun 22, 2011

I create an iframe in script and load it with this code.

[Code]...

This should force the loading of the savepages.php file. In that file I do an echo to verify that it is called.

[Code]...

The objective is to call that php function. The javascript function is called. I don't know if the element is actually created. Unlike php javascript doesn't put anything in the source for us to verify. I don't have ajax. How can I make the javascript function call create an element that loads the php file and causes the code in that php file to execute.

Date Function Range

Jul 23, 2005

After reading section 15.9.1.1 the ECMAScript Language Specifications I
see that the date range for the Date function is +/- 100,000,000 days
from 01 Jan 1970. This is called an extrapolated Gregorian calendar.
Since the Gregorian calendar did not begin until 15 Oct 1582 what is
the purpose of dates before that date? Wouldn't any computation prior
to that date be meaningless or am I missing something?

The reason I ask is that I have created a date calculator at my web
site. I don't want it to do computations with dates that have no
meaning.

Columbus discovered america on 12 Oct 1492. This must have been with
the Julian Calendar. If I used the Date function to see how many days
it was from that date until now would it be correct?

Creating Generic Javascript Functions (ie. El.onmouseclick = Function ...)

Jan 8, 2007

I want to learn more about creating functions for element events
without having to put onclick event in every tag. For example:

<script>
document.getElementsByTagName('input').onclick = function () {
alert('hello');
}
</script>

Now, I know the above does not work as I have tried it but hopefully
the idea of what I am trying to achieve here. Basically for every input
tag, when the user triggers the event (click) it will do the same
function.

Anyway, I would more so like to learn about this type of scripting
where you assign functions to events. However, I dont know what to
search for in google and the like. Where could I learn more about this?
