I have a jsp which uses a lot of javascript and it's just not fast enough. I would like to optimize it so first, here's a part of the code:
In the jsp I have the initialization:
window.onload = function () {
formCollection.pageSize.value = "<%= pagingSize%>";
elemCollection = iDom3.Table.all["spis"].XML.DOM;
<% if (resultList != null) { %>
elementsNumber = <%= resultList.size() %>;
<%} else { %>
elementsNumber = 0;
<% } %>
contextPath = "<%= request.getContextPath() %>";
}
In my js file I have two types of js functions:
// gets the first element and sets it's value to all the other;
//the selectSingleNode function is used because I use XSLT transformation
//to generate the table
_setTehJed = function(){
var resultId = formCollection.elements["idTehJedinice_spis_1"].value;
var resultText = formCollection.elements["tehnicka_spis_1"].value;
if (resultId != ""){
var counter = 1;
while (counter<elementsNumber){
counter++;
if(formCollection.elements["idTehJedinice_spis_"+counter] != null){
formCollection.elements["idTehJedinice_spis_"+counter].value=resultId;
formCollection.elements["tehnicka_spis_"+counter].value=resultText;
}
var node=elemCollection.selectSingleNode("/suite/table/rows/row[@id = 'spis_"+counter+"']/data[@col = 'tehnicka']/title");
node.text=resultText;
var node2=elemCollection.selectSingleNode("/suite/table/rows/row[@id = 'spis_"+counter+"']/data[@col = 'idTehJedinice']/title");
node2.text=resultId;
}
}
}
// sets the elements checkbox to checked or unchecked
_SelectCheckRokCuvanja = {
all : [],
Item : function (oItem, sId) {
this.all["spis_"+sId] = oItem.value;
if (oItem.checked) {
elemCollection.selectSingleNode("/suite/table/rows/row[@id = 'spis_"+sId+"']/data[@col = 'rokCheck']").setAttribute("default", "true");
}else{
elemCollection.selectSingleNode("/suite/table/rows/row[@id = 'spis_"+sId+"']/data[@col = 'rokCheck']").setAttribute("default", "false");
}
}
}
I've used these tips:

but I still think something could be done like defining the functions like this:
In the jsp:
window.onload = function () {
iDom3.DigitalnaArhivaPrihvat.formCollection=document.forms["controller"];
iDom3.DigitalnaArhivaPrihvat.formCollection.pageSize.value = "<%= pagingSize%>";
iDom3.DigitalnaArhivaPrihvat.elemCollection = iDom3.Table.all["spis"].XML.DOM;
<% if (resultList != null) { %>
iDom3.DigitalnaArhivaPrihvat.elementsNumber = <%= resultList.size() %>
<%} else { %>
iDom3.DigitalnaArhivaPrihvat.elementsNumber = 0;
<% } %>
}
in the js:
iDom3.DigitalnaArhivaPrihvat = {
formCollection:null,
elemCollection:null,
elementsNumber:null,
_setTehJed : function(){
var resultId = this.formCollection.elements.idTehJedinice_spis_1.value;
var resultText = this.formCollection.elements.tehnicka_spis_1.value;
if (resultId != ""){
var counter = 1;
while (counter<this.elementsNumber){
counter++;
if(this.formCollection.elements["idTehJedinice_spis_"+counter] !== null){
this.formCollection.elements["idTehJedinice_spis_"+counter].value=resultId;
this.formCollection.elements["tehnicka_spis_"+counter].value=resultText;
}
var node=this.elemCollection.selectSingleNode("/suite/table/rows/row[@id = 'spis_"+counter+"']/data[@col = 'tehnicka']/title");
node.text=resultText;
var node2=this.elemCollection.selectSingleNode("/suite/table/rows/row[@id = 'spis_"+counter+"']/data[@col = 'idTehJedinice']/title");
node2.text=resultId;
}
}
},
_SelectCheckRokCuvanja = {
all : [],
Item : function (oItem, sId) {
this.all["spis_"+sId] = oItem.value;
if (oItem.checked) {
this.elemCollection.selectSingleNode("/suite/table/rows/row[@id = 'spis_"+sId+"']/data[@col = 'rokCheck']").setAttribute("default", "true");
}else{
this.elemCollection.selectSingleNode("/suite/table/rows/row[@id = 'spis_"+sId+"']/data[@col = 'rokCheck']").setAttribute("default", "false");
}
}
}
but the problem is scoping (if I do it like this, the second function does not execute properly). Any suggestions?
