Whats Wrong With This Wait Function?

Jul 20, 2005

I have tried to write a wait function but it seems like it will not brake the while loop. I tried two different solutions. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong, and come with another suggestion? If I call the function like this: wait(500); it should wait 500ms right?

function wait(time) {
while(1){
setTimeout("break;",time);
}
}

function wait(time) {
var flag=0;
while(flag=0){
setTimeout("flag=1;",time);
}
}

JQuery :: Submit Does Not Wait For Ajax Function To Check Form

May 19, 2010

I'm using the submit and ajax functions to check a form. When the form is submitted the submit event executes and within that event the data (a code the user has to fill in) is sent to the server to check if it's correct. If it is correct, the submit event supposes to return true (so the form submits), if it's incorrect the submit event supposes to return false (so submitting the form cancels).

Here's my code that should do this:
$(function(){
var submit = false;
$('#login').submit(function(){
$('span.error').fadeOut('slow');
$.ajax({
url: '/ajax/login',
type: 'POST',
data: 'code=' + $('#code').val(),
success: function(response){
if (response != ''){
$('span.error').fadeIn('slow').text(response);
submit = false;
}else{
submit = true;
}}})
return submit;
})});

But here's the problem: While jQuery does the ajax request, the script continues. So it will return false - even if the code is validated - because the var submit has been set to false at line 4. When I submit the form again, the form is validated because 'submit' is true (but that's set to true the first time). How can I ensure the submit function waits for the ajax request to finish?

'Lost' Function Return Value: What Am I Doing Wrong?

Jan 9, 2006

I am relatively new to js, but I did think I was starting to get the
hang of it. Then this happened...

I have a form with an onsubmit event handler:
<form id="uploadForm" method="post" action="..."
onSubmit="checkDates()">

The event handler does some minor validation, then returns true or
false:

function checkDates(y, m, d) {

if (endDate.getTime() >= startDate.getTime())
return true;

alert("Start date must precede end date");
return false;
}

(The arguments to the function are used when it is called elsewhere,
not as onsubmit.)

I also have a library class which needs to process the form submit, so
it hooks onsubmit like this:
MyClass.setOnSubmit = function(listId) {
var list = document.getElementById(listId);
var form = list.form;

var f = form.onsubmit;
if (typeof f == "function") {
form.oldOnSubmit = f;
form.onsubmit = function(){
var ok = this.oldOnSubmit();
if (ok)
return MyClass.onsubmit(listId);
else
return false;
};
}
else
form.onsubmit = function(){MyClass.onsubmit(listId);};
}

My problem is that the value returned from oldOnSubmit and stored in ok
appears as 'void'. This happens in IE 6 and in FireFox 1.07. Can anyone
explain what's happening?

JQuery :: Dynamic List - Remove Function Works Wrong

Aug 30, 2011

I'm working on dynamic list with jQuery. I've appended hundreds of <li> elements with for loop to make very long list. When user scroll down again, remove older ones and append new ones at last of the list. I used$('li:lt(50)').remove() to remove first 5 elements from the list. At first, it works. But, for the second time, it always delete half of '50'. When I enter 100, only 50 elements deleted. How can it be? Could you check the ':lt(n)' selector and remove function? My HTML is very simple. only <UL> <LI> tags in the body. Tested on latest Chrome(ver.13.0.782), jQuery 1.6.2.

Wrong Values Passed To Function - Make A Link To The Next Page

Feb 21, 2009

I am writing a Javascript to sort and write out some stuff. PHP is not an option so I need to get this script working.

The problem arises when I want to make a link to the next page. (i.e. Like the link in Google for the next 10 results)

I have <a href=# onclick=FUNCTION(VALUES)> written dynamically by the script.

It is written onto the document correctly, but the problem is, when the link is clicked, some seemingly random values are passed to the function.

When you run the code, the first alert will show all the values that a were passed to the function. The second and third will show what was written to the document.

If you try clicking the next button after the code loads, the values that result will be unusual.

<script>

JS Declaring-Wrong Validation Due To Function With Variable Holding Same Valu?

May 21, 2011

I am doing a Validation for Form "Text input". If the user leaves the input empty, a function is starting to run. If the field is bigger than 1 - so it doesn't get into the function.

The problem is: The first time, the user left the input empty, function ran, and I got the alert - that's OK. Second time, The user added 10 in the AGE input - And again he gets the Alert - But he should not.

Note: Age input value, returns from a different function (calc) to a var called: result.

JQuery :: Finding Selected Radio Button In Internet Explorer With Function / Onchange - Wrong Value Obtained

Feb 24, 2011

The following code works fine in FF and Chrome for getting a radio selections value but not IE8.

$('input[name="search[gender]"]').change(function()
{
var check = $('input[name="search[gender]"]:checked').val();

Inputs are below:
<input type="radio" name="search[gender]" value="1" class="v_middle" />Male
<input type="radio" name="search[gender]" value="2" class="v_middle" />Female
<input type="radio" name="search[gender]" value="3" class="v_middle" />Couple
<input type="radio" name="search[gender]" value="4" class="v_middle" />tv
<input type="radio" name="search[gender]" value="" checked="checked" class="v_middle" />All

The first time you click a radio button in IE8, no value is returned at all (tested with document.write of the 'check' value), with an error "'null' is null or not an object". The second (and rest of the times) you click any of the checkboxes the wrong value is returned, it returns the value of the currently checked button (which we checked a moment ago) rather than the one we have checked the second time. Does Internet Explorer have issues with this onchange function method? Or is something wrong with my code?

Dynamically Filling In A 3rd Value In Select Pulldowns Depending On Whats Entered In The First 2

Jul 20, 2005

I have 3 select pulldown boxes where a user will select a year (either
2002 or 2001), a week (one thru 52), and a database (short data or long
data). But if a user selects a week that is less than 4, the 3rd select
pulldown will only show the choice of "short data", as they will not be
able to select "long data". Is it dynamically possible in javascript to
program a third pull down in this fashion?

Autocomplete AKA Google Suggest Made - Whats The Best Thing To Call Database Or Xml

Mar 28, 2009

So I have a nice little hand rolled Ajax call to my server pulling a list from the database and displaying it in a drop down list dependant on the user input. Aka Google suggest. I am wondering if the quickest way to do this is to call the database each time with Ajax and search the results with the input, or to write an xml from the database and search that. Then when the Database is updated rewrite the xml file.

Am I underestimating MYSQL again? Or not, and I feel it would be good practice to write the xml file because it will essentially mean a lot less database calls. But I don�t know how fast searching an xml file would be in comparison to a db call. The results from the database are say 500 entries anywhere between 10 - 100 characters each. I want to know A. The best way to do this B. Lets say the site will have pretty high traffic so I am looking for it to be as tweeked as possible. I can test but thought at the end of my week it was worth seeing what peoples advice is.

Ajax :: Wait Until Response Comes

Nov 15, 2008

I am using following code

Now what i want to do is: i have a callajax() function. with in this function i will call do_login() function. this do_login() handles an ajaxrequest and returns the responsetext.

Now i want to do some validation on this responsetext(in case of onsuccess). so i am trying to return value to callajax() function for onSuccess case in ajaxrequest.submit();

That is(onsuccess response) supposed to be some string( but not true or false). but i am always getting false in ajaxcall() function. i know the do_login() function is returning false before ajaxrequest completes

So i want to stop this and make do_login wait until ajaxrequest completes and then i want to return it's response to callajax() function.
