Dynamically Changing Background Color

Jul 20, 2005

I'm having a problem dynamically changing the color of a table background.

I'm not sure exactly how to word this, but I'll give an example.

I have a function called greentored(propname)

i want to be able to change the following to a different color:
document.all.propname.style.visibility

but substitute the propname with the variable that I'm sending over.

Here is what I had written before but it did not work, it should be easy to
understand what i'm trying to do:

function greentored(propname) {

changecolor = "document.all." + propname + ".style.background";

changecolor = "green";

}

I understand why this doesn't work because all i'm doing is reasigning
"changecolor" to equal green, rather then setting the property of the first
instance of "changecolor" to green.

Changing Background Color Of Text Box

Feb 3, 2009

So I'm trying to change the background color of a textbox depending on how many characters are enter (putting it green/red depending on count), and I'm having a hell of a time. There are 50 different textbox IDs on the page (give or take, dynamically generated), each unique/sequentially numbered (id1, id2 ... id50).Now I'm not that good with Javascript, but this is what I can up with so far.I was trying to use 'this.id' so I wouldn't have to name each of the IDs.

Changing Background Color Of Multiple Select

May 3, 2006

I have two multiple select inputs. Initially the first contains a bunch of
items and the second is empty. Using a common method, I move items back and
forth by double clicking on them.

This portion works perfectly, but I would also like to change the background
color of the select element with the current focus. I have defined the following classes:

..selected {
background: #C0FFFF
}
..deselected {
background: #FFFFFF
}

Using the following function below I am able to shift the background color
of rows containing content, but the color of the empty rows remain the
"selected" color. How can this effect be achieved for all rows, whether they
contain content or not?

Changing Background Color - Code Is Not Working?

Apr 5, 2011

I'm just starting out in Javascript coding and my first assignment is to create a web page which the users are allowed to selecte dtheir favorite layout and formatting through the use of the className property. I wanted to use these four options the user can choose to change the display of the web page and text.

Gray background
White background
Sans-serif text
Serif text

If the user onclicks any of the options, the webpage will turn into that format. For example, if the user clicks "Gray backgound", the background color of the webpage will be Gray. If the user clicks Serif-text, the text in the web page will be in Serif text. The code I have right now doesn't let me click any of the links to change the display and text.

Mouseover - Changing Background Color In Cell

Is there any way to have the background color change in a cell only when the mouse is over the link? This is what I have so far:
<td class=topnav2 onClick="location.href='AboutAD/overview.htm'" onMouseOut="this.style.backgroundColor='#9966FF'"onMouseOver="this.style.backg roundColor='#660099'" bgcolor="#9966FF" width="107" height="45"valign="middle">
<a class="topnav2" href="AboutAD/overview.htm">About Alzheimer's</a>
Currently you rollover the cell it changes color, I just want this effect when you roll over the text.

Automatically Changing Background Color Of A Table Cell?

Jul 23, 2005

I'm the webmaster for a recreational organization. As part of one page of the
site, I have an HTML "Calendar at a Glance" of the organization's events for
the month. It's a simple table of a calendar, 7 across by whatever needed
down, and I manually create it each month - not a big deal.

Every day I go in and darken the background color of the current day's cell
by changing the appropriate <TD> entry to <TD bgcolor="c63800"> and uploading
the page. Takes well under a minute start to finish. Thus the calendar
gradually changes color over the course of the month, with the past dates dark
and the future dates lighter and thus more apparent to the eye.

But I have to ask if there's a nifty way in which this might be done
automatically, based on the current day and the number (the day of the month)
that follows the <TD> entry.

A typical "before" entry is

<TD>23<br>Peet's Coffee, Newport Beach<br><br>8 AM: Don<br>9 AM: Molly</TD>

and an "after" entry is

<TD bgcolor="c63800">23<br>Peet's Coffee, Newport Beach<br><br>8 AM: Don<br>9
AM: Molly</TD>

I don't pretend to be a javascript heavy, but can usually stumble my way
through a task given some words of wisdom. Is this "doable"?

JQuery :: Changing Background And Link Color At Same Time

Feb 8, 2010

I have a container <div> with a link inside of it. What I need to do is change the background of the <div> and the color of the link text at the same time.I can change the color of the link when I hover over it, but not when I hover over the <div>I have columns of links and each column is the width of the longest link so there are some links with "space" to the right of the link. When that "space" is hovered over the background of the div changes but not the color of the link text.The menulinkbox is the container and there are, for example, 4 columns with 4 rows in each column. When I hover over a column + row I want the menulinkbox's background to change *and* the color of the <a> text to change.

JQuery :: Background Color Of A Div Is Changing When Click On A Button ?

Jan 9, 2012

I am trying to do the following.

While the background color of a div is changing when i click on a button, the image in the other div must change.

Now i have placed a bg image in a div and when i click on my menu link it changes so that works, but i would love to give it a transition, but is that even possible with the background image.

Or do i need to write some other code?

The colors and images change, but really would love a bounce in transition, cant figure it out though maybe it would be better with a list and placing the images just in the slider div?

N00b Q - Changing Background Color Of Table Cells On Click?

Aug 20, 2011

I'm super new to any kind of java script. What I want is a menu that, when clicked, changes the background color of a table cell to blue. When a different option is clicked, the current highlighted table should turn back to gray and the new selection should be blue. Well, I have all of that working. What I need now is just to have the first option start out highlighted and to become unhighlighted when another option is clicked.

Dynamically Changing Label Font Color When Radio Button Is Clicked?

Feb 6, 2011

I am building an online survey using a survey creation tool which allows me to incorporate javascript for additional functionality. However, I am new to javascript so would appreciate any help that you could provide me with.

I have question types like agreement scales, where the respondent sees a list of statements and has to rate each one by clicking on a radio button. The source code of the matrix table looks like this:

[Code].....

This code works as intended; however, as you can see, it loops through all the radio buttons when one is clicked. Is there a way to accomplish this without looping through all the radios, and thus make the script run faster?

Also, I have read that the addEventListener function does not work for older versions of IE. Is there a simpler alternative?

Additional Color Array For Background Color Change On Mouseover

Apr 24, 2011

have been trying to rework this to call additional, independent sets of colors to cycle through (so it would loop thru a set of grays, a set of primary colors, etc). I would use perhaps a different function name in the HTML to call different sets of colors. If this is more complex than I think it is, I think 3 sets would be plenty. demo link of script in current state at bottom)

<html><head><title></title>
<script language=javascript>
colors = ["#cacdca", "#b2b4b2", "#969896", "#7d7f7d", "#ffff00"];
cRGB = [];
