Prototype To Sort An Associative Array On The Array Key (in Ascending Order)
Sep 1, 2010
I am building a customised javascript prototype to sort an associative array on the array key (in ascending order). Basically, I am separating the array keys into a separate array and then using .sort() to sort the keys and then reassembling the original associative array elements according to the sorted keys array.
The sorting works ok except that when I run the test code below, the outputed sorted associative array has an extra element at the end of the array whose key is the name of the prototype function and the value for that element is the function code itself. Obviously I am misunderstanding something about associative arrays or how javascript prototypes work.

I want to create an associative array dynamically pulling the index values from an array (propertyArray); Associative array is created inside create function and then returned. But after it is returned, I cant use index names to retrieve values. It returns undefined as below code shows.
Code JavaScript:
var propertyArray=["a","b","c"];
function create(){
var array=[];

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.

New to javascript here. I'm trying to do something that would be very easy to do in php, but is quite hard in javascrpit due to the lack of support of associative array.
[Code]...
push() to add clickedElementId as a value associated to a numeric key, but then how would you remove a specific element from the array? How would you approach such a typical algo in javascript? Regards,

Is it possible to have an Object as the key for an Associative array
like in the following example....
function Obj(var1, var2)
{
this.var1 = var1;
this.var1 = var1;
}
function test() {
var sectionArray = new Array();
var obj = new Obj("c","k");
var obj2 = new Obj("3","n");
var obj3 = new Obj("v","qk");
sectionArray[obj] = "king";
sectionArray[obj2] = "queen";
sectionArray[obj3] = "joker";
alert(sectionArray[obj]);
}
This does not give any error but the alert says "joker" instead of
"king". Is there anything wrong with my code or is an Object something
that just can not be used as a key.
If it is the latter can someone please suggest another way for me to do
it? Can I use a concatenated String instead of an object? My only
problem then is how would I extract the values from the String, does
JavaScript have a tokenizer method like Java?

Something like this:
['level1key':['level2key:'value']]
That is the value itself is any object.

Your table-driven application has a MySQL table on the server side and you want a Javascript associative array on the client side to do rapid look-ups.For example: My application uses the value selected from the form’s drop-down menu to choose which other form fields to hide or show. This choice of a 'Long Form' is table-driven from product data in a MySQL table.
Convert the MySQL table to an associative array in JavaScript.I am using the jQuery library to manage the presentation and form validation on the client side and PHP and MySQL on the server side.Since a JavaScript Object is an associative array and the MySQL table is being used as a look-up table (associative array) I use the PHP function json_encode to create a JSON string - JSON is JavaScript Object Notation - on the server which is then evaluated as a JavaScript Object on the client. The two parts (server and client) of the code are listed below.All very straightforward then. So why the blog?This is what I do (here's the PHP code):
do { $key = $row['ProductKind'];
$value = ($row['LongForm'] ? True : False);
$arr[$key] = $value;
[code]...
As a newcomer to jQuery this is a good opportunity to show my appreciation to John Resig and the people that have contributed to the jQuery library ... not forgetting those who have integrated all the MySQL and JSON stuff into PHP. It's all very neat ... when you get to understand it!You could just eval(data) to turn the JSON string into a JavaScript Object (a.k.a. associative array), but JSON.parse protects your code against evaluating malicious scripts that could be embedded in the JSON string. This function is found in the json2.js downloadable until included in native browser JavaScript engines.The PHP Booleans translate automatically into JavaScript Boolean types.
[Skip this: My application has a MySQL table of product categories that tell me whether I need to present the administrator with a long form or a short form in the HTML. So, as products are added over time, I want to the administrator to choose whether a new product category can take the short form plus some default values or will require the explicit input of all product values in the long form. As the administrator assigns a category to a new product - and changes his mind half a dozen times - I don’t want to keep on going to the server to do the look-up but want to have the table in Javascript to keep the form presentation responsive. Also, the MySQL tables are on a third party’s server remote from the web server.]

I need a way to store an associative array in a cookie. Or maybe JSON encoded string. I am using jquery.
var cookie=[];
cookie["product_1"]=[];
cookie["product_1"][cookie["product_1"].length]=12;
$.cookie('uploads', $.toJSON(cookie), { path: '/', expires: 10 });

I'm trying to create a multi-dimensional associative array that has some of its data created dynamically. The code I've currently got is as follows (using JQuery to retrieve form element values):
Code JavaScript:
var data = {
label: $('#label').val(),
child_float: function() {
[code]....
.. if its values were not being created dynamically. However as you can tell that isn't what is being generated at the moment, as there's no opening/closing brace before/after the child_float's member variables. Any ideas what changes I need to make in order make the child_float behave as intended?

Lets assume the following object
Code:
var x = {
y: {
z: 10
}
} ;
Next, I need to retrieve the value '10', but the only thing I have is one string as a key For example (this doesn't work):
Code:
var str = '[y][z]' ; // or 'y.z'??
alert(x[str]) ; // should alert 10
Can this be done using a single string as input for x ?
UPDATE: a solution which comes close to what I was looking for is
Code:
var str = "x['y']['z']" ;
alert(eval(str));

I'm trying to create an associative array in javascript from within the loop that sets up my html table. I can't get my head around assigning the associative key-value pair (probably not the best way of putting it). I've written the below in php. What's the equivalent in javascript? The => is the part that's baffling me.
PHP Code:
$test_array[] = array ([INDENT]'seller_id'=>$seller_details[$column]['seller_id'],
'products_id' => $item_details[$idval]['products_id'],
'shipping_price' =>$item_details[$idval]['shipping_price'])[/INDENT]

OK so Ive been using jquery for a little bit now and love it. I am a ColdFusion developer. I have a need where I would like to present the user with a list of categories and the user can drag and drop to sort, but then I need to post this new sort order to the database. So I see there are a ton of cool drag & drop plugins for jquery. I understand how they work and I can get it to work as far as spitting out DIVS or spitting out ULs that can be sorted, but then what? So now they are sorted on my screen and not really part of the form. How do I translate that into something I can do a post to the database with? Do I do an AJAX call every time they drop an item and try to extrapolate the sort order on that item after they drop it? Do I populate a hidden form field with the constantly updating sort order list? MAybe a list of ID's? How does everyone else go about this this task? I'm sure there is more than one way and I'm sure this is a common task.

I check the web and they only show you how to sort the whole array. I would like to be able to sort the subset of the 2D array.How would I sort the sub array independently. So only the a's together, then only the b's together, etc.

Array.prototype.each = function (fn) {
this.map(fn)
}
This is my each function that works great in every other browser but IE. UGH! What am I doing wrong? the error points to the this in the function. Is it that IE doesn't like map? Has anyone seen this before? I thought my code was correct. Works perfect in FF, chrome and opera. the canvas text doesn't work in opera, but it does render the features so the each function is working.
I'll post the code if needed, but it's huge. here's the script running.[URL]..

I have an array which is populated by a count of instances from another array, so its ends up with data like:
I need to sort this by the number before the 'x'.
At present, a .sort() would put 1 - 9 before anything greater than 10, obviously not what I'm after.
How can I make it put this array into the correct order (e.g 22 x something else, 17 x another event, 5 x that event, 2 x this event)

I found this code on Internet:
<script type="text/javascript">
Array.prototype.push = function() {
var n = this.length >>> 0;
for (var i = 0; i < arguments.length; i++) {
this[n] = arguments[i];
n = n + 1 >>> 0;
}
this.length = n;
return n;
};
</script>
Question 1: How to call this function?
Question 2: When I delete >>> 0, what I lose? ( >>>0 ı sildiğim zaman, ne kaybederim?)
