we're just starting our lesson on JavaScript and i need to make a form that ask the user's birthday on a drop down menu, but the day drop down menu ranges from 1-31 must be populated using a javascript loop and also the year. Then after the user selects the birthday, the age will be shown automatically.
View 1 RepliesI am having a hard time figuring this out, I have two simple arrays and I want to populate one by asking a visitor to enter information, it goes something like this...
var country = new Array(5);
c_list[0] = "USA";
c_list[1] = "UK";
c_list[2] = "France";
c_list[3] = "Germany";
[Code]....
how do I use a simple for loop to use the names entered and populate the second array?
This script determins the current date, and if that date is someones birthday (from a list of birthdays, names and dates) It prints a customisable message.
(different message for eagh entry if you want!)
It's a very simple script but it works well. Put it between HTML tags to change the output text apperance.
Here is the script:
<script language="JavaScript">
var date=new Date()
var year=date.getYear()
if (year < 1000)
year+=1900
var day=date.getDay()
var month=date.getMonth()
var daym=date.getDate()
//Birthday List
if ((month = 9) && (date = 21)) document.write("somebody's birthday");
</script>
//to add more that one entry, just copy the first and paste it back into the script, changing the contents...
ok so I have 3 combo boxes one for each of month day and year. In the <select> tag for both the month and year i have onchange="setDate();". Below is what the function setDate actually does.
Code:
function setDate()
{

I am having difficulty with my javascript data validation for a birthday field. The error is coming up correctly, but the result is never returned as true. Even if I enter the date correctly, the error "Invalid date! The correct date format is like '01/01/2004'. Please try again." comes up. This data validation is for a contact form that i've developed for a personal site. Can someone please stear me in the right direction? I feel as if this is a simple syntax error, but I have looked at it for hours and cannot seem to find any error in script or the functions.Here is the code:

I have been looking at this code for two evenings now, and rewrote it 4 times already. It started out as jQuery code and now it's just concatenating strings together.
What I'm trying to do: Build a menu/outline using unordered lists from a multidimensional array.
What is happening: Inside the buildMenuHTML function, if I call buildMenuHTML, the for loop only happens once (i.e. only for 'i' having a value of '0'.) If I comment out the call to itself, it goes through the for loop all 3 times, but obviously the submenus are not created.
Here is the test object:
test = [
{
"name" : "Menu 1",
"url" : "menu1.html",
"submenu" : [
[Code].....
'Menu 2' and 'Menu 3' don't show up! I'm sure it's something small that I'm overlooking.
I'm looking to send a loop variable (i) to a function inside the loop, but I can't seem to get it to use the value I want, it keeps making it a reference of i and therefore the function is always called using the last value of i rather than the one it was set with.
So if i have 5 Tabs then Tab 1, when clicked, should call DefaultTabClick(0) and so on rather than always using 4 for any of the tabs.
I have the code below, how could it be modified to loop over and over and reload the xml file each time. Flow would be: load xml, run thruogh code to display each xml node one at a time, when reach last node, start all over, reloading xml file,

As you can see from the code and the output, it will attempt to write to the browser how many moves, but only '0'.
function rollDie()
{
return Math.floor(Math.random() * 6) + 1;

I am trying to populate a listbox using Javascript. The listbox is populated using the xml response from ajax request. But i am facing performance issue here. some ajax requests retrieves xmls with around 11,000 nodes and this takes too much of time to populate the listbox.

I'm basically building a javascript/html calculator but I need the calculation to appear gradually in a table, the table need to be 3 columns accross and add a row each time a calculation button is pressed, the first column can remain blank for now but will need to contain a text field eventually, second column needs to show the calculation symbol, third column shows the number. Here's an example:
4+2+7-5=8
|Blank| | 4 |
|Blank| + | 2 |
|Blank| + | 7 |
|Blank| - | 5 |
|Blank| = | 8 |

Wonder if anyone can help. I have a page on my website where users can select their country and state/province from a drop down menu. The country and state/province drop down menus get populated from the mysql database using javascript: ie: the user select his country, and the states/provinces of that selected country is then populated into the drop down menu. The code looks like this:<select name="countryList" id="countryList" onChange="return CountryListOnChange()">So the js part onChange will only populate the states drop down menu when a new country is selected.Now the problem is: when the use goes back to his profile, he can see the country he selected, but not any state, since the states list is only populated onChange.

I have form in which I have among other element a series of checkboxes. These have different id, and values but same name attributes. These attributes are populated with good old ASP spaghetti code.
When I check the box, I want a Div tag called "floatleyer" to populate with a duplicate checkbox and it's value ( a string). So now we have pair of check boxes one the page and a matching one in the div area. If you un-check either box of the matching pair the other member of the given pair gets un-checked as well. In addition, the box and value string from the floatleyer is completely removed.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI've been working on a listbox full of employees for our company intranet. Each name has an onchange tag that calls up a floor map and that part works fine but I'd really like to populate the names from an XML list so it's easier for non-IT people to maintain.I've been doing alot of web searches on the subject which comes up alot but it's mostly just fragments of what I need being that I've got no javascript background.I found a helpful tutorial on javascriptkit but that wasn't for creating listboxes so I'm only part of the way there. The most important parts are the name which will be used as the text of the box and the office number which will determine which floorplan is displayed.I added the other information so I can potentially put it in a div display later but that can wait.
