My array contains 15 value I want to random pick 5 value:
[Code]...
How to random pick from all elements with no repeat of the same content. e.g. if myArray[0] is picked then myArray[12] will not be picked again. (because they have the same value "a")
I want to add a button, beside the "Add" and "Remove" button which pick random of users depending on a given value, lets say that the value is 2, then it would pick 2 users randomly and move them to box 2.
Code JavaScript:
$().ready(function() {
$('#add').click(function() {
return !$('#box1 option:selected').remove().appendTo('#box2');

I want to have a random change of the border and text color of certain DIVs (with a certian class) after a specific time interval. I managed to get a random color change after the time interval, but I'd like to just have a set of colors, which the random generator can choose from. So here's my code:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var intervalId = setInterval(function() {
int i = (int)(Math.random() * 4);
[Code].....
So "i" can be a number from 0 to 3 and depending on this number, the variable "col" is a specific colorvalue which the border and text color will animate to. That was my thought, but something about the random color generator doesn't work
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 have a grid that is 6 x 3, for a total of 18 cells. Each cell has a picture in it, and the picture is linked to the Facebook friend request page. My problem is that since each cell is populated at random from the array, I'm getting lots of repeats. For example, some picutures are in 5 cells, and some are in none. I'm trying to figure out how to make it so that once a picture is used once in the grid, it does not get used again in the same grid.I still want every cell filled at random on each page load, I just want to prevent the repeating.
Here's my current code:
<script type="text/javascript">

I'd like to reorganize the third, fourth, fifth and sixth, as well as any
elements thereafter in an array in random order:
var a = new Array('first','second','third','fourth','fifth','s ixth','etc')
In other words, the first, second and third element should remain in
position 0, 1 and 2, while the fourth, fifth and sixth, etc. should appear
in random order.
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? [code]is the random array member generated by the javascript.

I am learning Javascript from this book I got, and I am trying to do one of the "challenges" in the Hangman example, and that is to add on more 8 letter words to it and have it select by random. I am assuming that it's asking me to do this with arrays, but I have no idea how to implement that on this while having it select randomly.

I have an array containing 100 different values. How would I randomly pick 25 of them for display? For now I do: for (var i=0; i<markers.length && i<25; i++) {
html += markers[i].name + '<br />';
}
Which of course returns 25 values but always in the same order which is not what I want. PS. My array could also contain only 20 values, in which case I would like the function to display the 20 values randomly sorted.
So, I am attempting to select a random entry from an array, and then make it so that particular entry will not be selected again until every entry has been selected. Basically, I don't want to see any of the same entries, until all of the entries in the array have been selected.
So if this were my array....
keywords =
[
"ppc",
"games",
[Code]....
since meta was selected a second time before everything had been selected once.
I would like to see something more like
meta, advertise, gaming,ppc, welcome, home, games, advertise, ppc, since this did not select any entry multiple times before every entry had been randomly selected.( the second loop started at the second "advertise" in case you didn't catch the differences.
But as you can see from the code that I have posted above, I do not know how to do this. I have seen examples where the entries that were randomly selected, were actually deleted from the array entirely but this is not what I want to do. I just want every entry to be selected once, and then for the process to be restarted.
does anyone know how to scramble the "box#" in the codes below? Ultimately, I want the checkboxes to be in different order each time I access the web page?
<script lanugage="javascript">
function countChoices(obj) {
max = 3; // max. number allowed at a time
box1 = obj.form.box1.checked; // your checkboxes here
box2 = obj.form.box2.checked;
box3 = obj.form.box3.checked; // add more if necessary
box4 = obj.form.box4.checked;
box5 = obj.form.box5.checked;
count = (box1 ? 1 : 0) + (box2 ? 1 : 0) + (box3 ? 1 : 0) + (box4 ? 1 : 0) + (box5 ? 1 : 0);
if (count > max) {
alert("You can only choose " + max + " of the 5 nominees.");
obj.checked = false;
}
}
</script>
<form>
<input type=checkbox name=box1 onClick="countChoices(this)"> Homer Simpsons <p>
<input type=checkbox name=box2 onClick="countChoices(this)"> Ground's Keeper Willie <p>
<input type=checkbox name=box3 onClick="countChoices(this)"> Mr. Burns <p>

I'm creating a tool which will who a random image every time I press a button, when the image is clicked it will open a new tab which will show a website. I can tell you I've succeeded in all this, but I was wondering if there is any way in which I can let my "generator" show 1 standard image at first, and if this is even possible never show that image after it has been showed. The image will explain that the you have to press the button to go to the next image.The Code:
<script language="JavaScript">
images = new Array(4);
images[0] = "<a href = 'URL' target='name' onclick='window.open ('URL')' ><img src='img1.jpg' alt='tag'></a>";

I have a quick question with multiple array and random numbers. If i generate my random numbers in one array, how would i take a selection of those numbers and put them in another array?
Ex: array 1: 25, 34, 38, 40, 22, 49
Want to move numbers between 30 and 50 to another array.
array 2: 34, 38, 40, 49
Is it as simple as for loops and if statements setting the conditions? do i use a sorting method? (selection? bubble?)
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've been asked to do the following using javascript:
-Create a function named randInt() with one parameter of "size". Declare a variable named "rNum" equal to a random integer between 1 and the value of the size variable. Return the value of the "rNum" varialbe from the function.
-Create a function named getQuote() with one parameter anemd "qNum". The function should create an array named mtQuotes with five quotes; there should be no quote for the array index "0". Return the value of the mtQuotes array for the qNum index.
- In the div element of "quotes" insert a script with the following commands: Declare a variable named "randValue" which is euqal to a random integer between 1 and 5 (use the randInt() function). Declare a variable named "quoteText" containing the quote whose array index value is equal to randValue. Write the value of quoteText to the web page.Here is what I have...it returns undefined.

I have an array and a button to select a random integer from the array, how do I make it so that it selects every integer once til all are selected, then it starts over again?For example, an array has these:
A
B
1
2
Q
F
So you press the button a number of times, and you get:
Q
B
1
F
A
2
Instead of:
1
Q
A
1
B
A

I'm new and naive at JS, but use a lot of modified JS snippets in web
design. I'm working on a six-language site for a client right now that has
a small nav bar at the bottom of each template-based page.
I've had success in previous projects, writing out language-specific nav-bar
code nested in a document.write statement; a unique .js file for each
language.
An idea that I came up with that would allow me to create a function that
would cover all languages was this: if javascript could somehow detect the
"lang" attribute of the <html> tag, it could automatically choose which
"langage" js file to reference for my nav bar.
Example, if my german nav bar was in a file, "/scripts/de.js" the function
would pick up "de" from the "lang" attrib in the <html> tag, assign it to a
variable, say "navlang", and render a document.write statement that would
"write" out my script source reference as such:
<script>
document.write('<script src="/scripts/' + navlang +'.js"></script>');
</script>
my problem is I'm not adept enough at JS to write a function that would grab
the LANG attrib of the page .
Let's say I have a string, something like this: sadasd4assadasd8ssssda5asadasd3asdasdasd8dsdsd
and I want to pick out the numbers and add them to each other. How do I do that? I have tried and know how to pick out one number, but how do I pick out several numbers and add them?
With html you can have a file input that browses for a file to upload.
As far as I can tell you have to pick a file and can't pick a folder.
Is there a way to pick a folder with JS. I don't want to upload, I just need the path.
