  • javascript countdown timer with cookies

    - by jwesonga
    I have a countdown timer that will show a target amount to be fundraised like USD1000000 and slowly count backwards to zero over a period of days. I got this snippet: $(function() { var cnt = 75000000; var count = setInterval(function() { if (cnt > 0) { $('#target').html("<span>KSHS</span><strong>" + cnt + " Target </strong>"); cnt--; } else { clearInterval(count); $('#target').html("<strong> Target Achieved! </strong>"); } }, 4000); }); The only problem is that everytime you refresh the page the counter starts again which essentially means it will never end. I'd like it that a when a user revisits/refreshes the page the counter persists and continues. I've read that javascript cookies can be used for this, just don't know how to implement them, any help?

  • javascript read a text file

    - by Cyprus106
    I have looked everywhere and surprisingly can't find a good solution to this! I've got the following code that is supposed to read a text file and display it's contents. But it's not reading, for some reason. Am I doing something wrong? FTR, I can't use PHP for this. It's gotta be Javascript. var txtFile = new XMLHttpRequest(); txtFile.open("GET", "http://www.mysite.com/todaysTrivia.txt", true); txtFile.send(null); txtFile.onreadystatechange = function() { if (txtFile.readyState == 4) { // Makes sure the document is ready to parse. alert(txtFile.responseText+" - "+txtFile.status); //if (txtFile.status === 200) { // Makes sure it's found the file. var doc = document.getElementById("Trivia-Widget"); if (doc) { doc.innerHTML = txtFile.responseText ; } //} } txtFile.send(null); } Any good ideas what I'm doing wrong? It just keeps givimg me a zero status.

  • Why doesn't this external JavaScript load?

    - by Ben Herila
    I've been futzing with this for hours trying to figure out why codemirror.js won't load in any browser other than Firefox.

  • Javascript storing properties and functions in variables

    - by richard
    Hello, I'm having trouble with my programming style and I hope to get some feedback here. I recently bought Javascript: The Good Parts and while I find this a big help, I'm still having trouble designing this application. Especially when it comes to writing function and methods. Example: I have a function that let's the user switches games in my app. This function updates game-specific information in the current view. var games = { active: Titanium.App.Properties.getString('active_game'), gameswitcher_positions: { 'Game 1': 0, 'Game 2': 1, 'Game 3': 2, 'Game 4': 3, 'Game 5': 4 }, change: function(game) { if (active_game !== game) { gameswitcher.children[this.gameswitcher_positions[this.active]].backgroundImage = gameswitcher.children[this.gameswitcher_positions[this.active]].backgroundImage.replace('_selected', ''); gameswitcher.children[this.gameswitcher_positions[game]].backgroundImage = gameswitcher.children[this.gameswitcher_positions[game]].backgroundImage.replace('.png', '_selected.png'); events.update(game); this.active = game; } }, init: function() { gameswitcher.children[this.gameswitcher_positions[this.active]].backgroundImage = gameswitcher.children[this.gameswitcher_positions[this.active]].backgroundImage.replace('.png', '_selected.png'); events.update(this.active); } }; gameswitcher is a container view which contains buttons to switch games. I am not satisfied with this approach but I cannot think of a better one. Should I place the gameswitcher_positions outside of the variable in a seperate variable instead of as a property? And what about the active game? Please give me feedback, what am I doing wrong?

  • Reading JSON with Javascript/jQuery

    - by Josephine
    I'm building a game in javascript/html5 and I'm trying to build a database of locked doors in a maze that can be loaded from and overwritten to throughout gameplay. I've found a large number of tutorials online, but nothing is working. I was wondering if someone could look at what I'm trying and let me know what I'm doing wrong. My JSON file looks like this: { "doors": [ {"left":true, "right":false, "bottom":false}, {"left":false, "right":false, "bottom":false}, {"right":false, "bottom":false, "top":false}, {"left":false, "right":false, "top":false} ] } I want to build the HTML page so that when a player collides with a door it checks if its locked or not like: if (player.x < leftDoor.x + leftDoor.width && player.x + player.width > leftDoor.x && player.y < leftDoor.y + leftDoor.height && player.y + player.height > leftDoor.y) { if(doors[0].left == true) alert("door is locked"); else window.location = ( "2.html?p1="); } However I'm having trouble reading from the JSON file itself. I've tried things like: function loadJson() { $(document).ready(function() { $.getJSON('info.json', function(doors) { alert(doors[0].left); }); }); } But nothing happens, and I need to be able to access the information in the HTML as well. I'd rather use jQuery, but I'm not opposed to straight JS if it works. I've been trying to do this for ages and I'm getting absolutely no where. If someone could help that would be amazing. Thanks!

  • Splitting data from MySQL using PHP & Javascript works in IE but not in FF

    - by MTSzabo
    I have the following JavaScript function on a page: function setFields(){ var menu = document.getElementById('EditLocation'); var itemDataArray = menu[menu.selectedIndex].value.split('|'); form.LocationShortName.value = itemDataArray[0]; form.LocationLongName.value = itemDataArray[1]; form.Phone.value = itemDataArray[2]; form.Address1.value = itemDataArray[3]; form.CityStateZip.value = itemDataArray[4]; form.MapLink.value = itemDataArray[5]; } Down on the Form, I have the following: <select class="input2" name="EditLocation" id="EditLocation" onchange = "setFields();"> <option value="-Add New-"<?php if($editlocation=='-Add New-'){echo(' selected="selected"');} ?>>-Add New-</option> <?php require_once('connection.php'); $connection = mysql_connect($hostname,$username,$password) or die (mysql_errno().": ".mysql_error()."<BR />"); mysql_select_db($database); $sql = "SELECT * FROM directions ORDER BY dirshortname"; $query = mysql_query($sql); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { echo('<option value="'.stripslashes($row['dirshortname']).'|'.stripslashes($row['dirlongname']).'|'.stripslashes($row['dirphone']).'|'.stripslashes($row['dirstreet']).'|'.stripslashes($row['dircsz']).'|'.stripslashes($row['dirmaplink']).'"'); if ($editlocation==stripslashes($row['dirshortname'])) { echo(' selected="selected"'); } echo('>'.stripslashes($row['dirshortname']).'</option>'); } ?> In essence, the PHP is supposed to pack the data elements pulled from MySQL into the OPTION VALUE portion of the SELECT box. Once the user selects a record, the JavaScript pulls the packed data apart and populates the other data elements on the FORM. It all works wonderfully in IE, but in FF the fields do not populate with data. The form is somewhat long, but I'll include it anyway for the sake of completeness. <form action="admin-dirs.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" style="margin:0px; padding:0px " id="form"> <table width="587" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="60">&nbsp;</td> <td width="185">Select Location to Edit: </td> <td width="342"><select class="input2" name="EditLocation" id="EditLocation" onchange = "setFields();"> <option value="-Add New-"<?php if($editlocation=='-Add New-'){echo(' selected="selected"');} ?>>-Add New-</option> <?php require_once('connection.php'); $connection = mysql_connect($hostname,$username,$password) or die (mysql_errno().": ".mysql_error()."<BR />"); mysql_select_db($database); $sql = "SELECT * FROM directions ORDER BY dirshortname"; $query = mysql_query($sql); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { echo('<option value="'.stripslashes($row['dirshortname']).'|'.stripslashes($row['dirlongname']).'|'.stripslashes($row['dirphone']).'|'.stripslashes($row['dirstreet']).'|'.stripslashes($row['dircsz']).'|'.stripslashes($row['dirmaplink']).'"'); if ($editlocation==stripslashes($row['dirshortname'])) { echo(' selected="selected"'); } echo('>'.stripslashes($row['dirshortname']).'</option>'); } ?> </select></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="60">&nbsp;</td> <td colspan="2"><span class="main" style=" padding-left:12px; padding-right:12px; padding-top:6px"><br /> (Note: Leaving the Long Name blank will duplicate the Short Name.)</span></td> </tr> <?php if(!$errlocationshortname=='' ){echo(' <tr> <td width="60">&nbsp;</td> <td width="185">&nbsp;</td> <td width="342"><span class="redtxterror">'.$errlocationshortname.'</span></td> </tr>');} ?> <tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> <td>Location Short Name: <span class="red_star">*</span> </td> <td><input name="LocationShortName" id="LocationShortName" type="text" class="input2<?php if(!$errlocationshortname==''){echo('r');} ?>" value="<?php echo($locationshortname); ?>" maxlength="50"></td> </tr> <?php if(!$errlocationlongname=='' ){echo(' <tr> <td width="60">&nbsp;</td> <td width="185">&nbsp;</td> <td width="342"><span class="redtxterror">'.$errlocationlongname.'</span></td> </tr>');} ?> <tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> <td>Location Long Name: <span class="red_star">*</span> </td> <td><input name="LocationLongName" id="LocationLongName" type="text" class="input2<?php if(!$errlocationlongname==''){echo('r');} ?>" value="<?php echo($locationlongname); ?>" maxlength="50"></td> </tr> <?php if(!$erraddress=='' ){echo(' <tr> <td width="60">&nbsp;</td> <td width="185">&nbsp;</td> <td width="342"><span class="redtxterror">'.$erraddress.'</span></td> </tr>');} ?> <tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> <td>Street Address: <span class="red_star">*</span> </td> <td><input name="Address1" id="Address1" type="text" class="input2<?php if(!$erraddress==''){echo('r');} ?>" value="<?php echo($address); ?>"></td> </tr> <?php if(!$errcsz=='' ){echo(' <tr> <td width="60">&nbsp;</td> <td width="185">&nbsp;</td> <td width="342"><span class="redtxterror">'.$errcsz.'</span></td> </tr>');} ?> <tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> <td>City, State, Zip: <span class="red_star">*</span> </td> <td><input name="CityStateZip" id="CityStateZip" type="text" class="input2<?php if(!$errcsz==''){echo('r');} ?>" value="<?php echo($csz); ?>"></td> </tr> <?php if(!$errphone=='' ){echo(' <tr> <td width="60">&nbsp;</td> <td width="185">&nbsp;</td> <td width="342"><span class="redtxterror">'.$errphone.'</span></td> </tr>');} ?> <tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> <td>Location Phone Number: <span class="red_star">*</span> </td> <td><input name="Phone" id="Phone" type="text" class="input2<?php if(!$errphone==''){echo('r');} ?>" value="<?php echo($phone); ?>" maxlength="20"></td> </tr> <?php if(!$errmaplink=='' ){echo(' <tr> <td width="60">&nbsp;</td> <td width="185">&nbsp;</td> <td width="342"><span class="redtxterror">'.$errmaplink.'</span></td> </tr>');} ?> <tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> <td>Paste Link to Map: <span class="red_star">*</span> </td> <td><input name="MapLink" id="MapLink" type="text" class="input2<?php if(!$errmaplink==''){echo('r');} ?>" value="<?php echo($maplink); ?>" maxlength="125"></td> </tr> <tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> <td>&nbsp;</td> <td><div align="right" style="padding-right:25px"> <input type="hidden" id="action" name="action" value="submitform" /> <input type="submit" id="savenew" name="savenew" value="Save & New" /> <input type="submit" id="submit" name="submit" value="Save & Close" /> <?php if(!isset($_POST['action'])) {?> <input type="reset" id="reset" name="reset" value="Reset" /> <?php } ?> </div></td> </tr><tr> <td>&nbsp;</td> <td>&nbsp;</td> <td class="main_d"><div align="right" style="padding-right:25px">Your IP Address is Logged as: <?php echo($ip); ?></div></td> </tr> </table> </form>

  • JavaScript: why `null == 0` is false?

    - by lemonedo
    I had to write a routine that increments the value of a variable by 1 if it is a number, or assigns 0 to the variable if it is not a number. The variable can be incremented by the expression, or be assigned null. No other write access to the variable is allowed. So, the variable can be in three states: it is 0, a positive integer, or null. My first implementation was: v >= 0 ? v += 1 : v = 0 (Yes, I admit that v === null ? v = 0 : v += 1 is the exact solution, but I wanted to be concise then.) It failed since null >= 0 is true. I was confused, since if a value is not a number, an numeric expression involving it must be false always. Then I found that null is like 0, since null + 1 == 1, 1 / null == Infinity, Math.pow(2.718281828, null) == 1, ... Strangely enough, however, null == 0 is evaluated to false. I guess null is the only value that makes the following expression false: (v == 0) === (v >= 0 && v <= 0) So why null is so special in JavaScript?

  • Creating a dynamic two-column iOS spinning wheel with HTML/Javascript

    - by JSW189
    I am trying to create a dynamic two-column spinning wheel for iOS Safari using this HTML/Javascript wheel. However, I am having trouble getting the value of the first column to change the results of the second column. I have tried using an if statement to get the value of the first variable (var beverage) and add the value of the second column correspondingly. Does anybody know what I am doing wrong/if there is a better approach? function openBirthDate() { var beverage = { 1:'Coffee', 2:'Soda' }; //THIS IS WHERE I'M HAVING TROUBLE var results = SpinningWheel.getSelectedValues(); if (results.values === 1) { var company = { 1:'Starbucks', 2:'Dunkin Donuts' }; } else { var company = { 1:'Coke', 2:'Pepsi' }; } var size = { 1:'Tall', 2:'Grande', 3:'Venti' }; SpinningWheel.addSlot(type, '', 1); SpinningWheel.addSlot(company, '', 1); SpinningWheel.addSlot(size, '', 1); SpinningWheel.setCancelAction(cancel); SpinningWheel.setDoneAction(done); SpinningWheel.open(); } function done() { var results = SpinningWheel.getSelectedValues(); document.getElementById('result').innerHTML = 'values: ' + results.values.join(' ') + '<br />keys: ' + results.keys.join(', '); } function cancel() { document.getElementById('result').innerHTML = 'cancelled!'; } window.addEventListener('load', function(){ setTimeout(function(){ window.scrollTo(0,0); }, 100); }, true);

  • How does scope in Javascript work?

    - by Jim
    I can not understand how scoping works in Javascript. E.g. <html> <head> <script>var userName = "George"; </script> </head> <body> ...... <script> document.write('Name = ' + userName); </script> </body> </html> The variable userName is declared in another "section" of a script. As I understand it the browser renders html and executes code in the order it finds it. So how does userName in the second script tag gets resolved? Does it go to a global setting? Anything I declare earlier is global? I noticed the same happens if I do something like: <html> <head> <script> do { var userName = "George"; //bla } while (someCondition); </script> </head> <body> ...... <script> document.write('Name = ' + userName); </script> </body> </html> Even when userName is declared inside {} it is still resolved in the second script. How is that possible?

  • Control Javascript > CSS through Flash

    - by Jason b.
    Hi All, Ideal situation/setup: A page containing 1 Flash movie and a separate div containing a few hyperlinks. These hyperlinks each have a unique class name like so: Copy code <ul> <li><a href="" class="randomname1"></a></li> <li><a href="" class="randomname2"></a></li> <li><a href="" class="randomname3"></a></li> <li><a href="" class="randomname4"></a></li> </ul> The Flash movie itself will contain 4 buttons. Clicking on one of these buttons should make the Flash communicate with Jquery/JS and tell it to highlight the specific classname. Ideas so far For the javascript, it would look like $(function() { function setClass(className) {$("."+className).css("background","red");} }); And in specific keyframes within Flash 1. button 1 ExternalInterface.call("setClass","randomname1"); 1. button 2 ExternalInterface.call("setClass","randomname2"); 1. button 3 ExternalInterface.call("setClass","randomname3"); 1. button 4 ExternalInterface.call("setClass","randomname4"); The problem is that it is not really working well and i am not sure if i am making Flash communicate with JS properly. Any ideas or hints to steer me in the right direction again? Thank you in advance J.

  • Why use object.prototype.constructor in OOP javascript?

    - by Matt
    I've recently started reading up on OOP javascript and one thing that authors seem to skip over is when an object A has been declared and suddenly I see "A.prototype.constructor =A; For example, var A = function(){}; // This is the constructor of "A" A.prototype.constructor = A; A.prototype.value = 1; A.prototype.test = function() { alert(this.value); } var a = new A(); // create an instance of A alert(a.value); // => 1 So I run the command in firebug "var A = function(){};" and then "A.Constructor" Which reveals it's a function. I understand this. I run the code "A.prototype.constructor = A;" and I thought this changes the A constructor from Function to A. The constructor property of A has been changed right? Instead when I run "A.constructor" it gives me function () still. What's the point? I also see A.constructor.prototype.constructor.prototype.. what is going on?

  • Strange behavior with ajax call complete in JavaScript modules

    - by user2598794
    I have 3 simple modules with JavaScript code and JQuery ajax call. First module lots.js: var Lots = (function ($) { var self = this; var processIsRunning; return { getLots: function (lotsUrl) { var items = []; self.processIsRunning = true; var request = $.ajax({ url: lotsUrl, type: 'POST', success: function (data) { //some code } }); $.when(request).done(function() { //some code self.processIsRunning = false; }); }, isComplete: function () { return !self.processIsRunning; } }; }(jQuery)); Module bids.js: var Bids = (function ($) { return { makeBids: function (bidUrl) { //some code } }; }(jQuery)); Module app.js which bundles all together: var App = (function () { var lots_url = null; var bid_url = null; var self = this; return { if (!self.lots_url) { self.lots_url = lotsUrl; } GetLots: function (lotsUrl) { Lots.getLots(self.lots_url); }, MakeBids: function makeBid(bidUrl) { //some code var isComp = Lots.isComplete(); while (!isComp) { isComp = Lots.isComplete(); } Bids.makeBids(self.bid_url); } }; }()); But in the 'while' loop I always get 'isComplete=false'. In debug I see that 'processIsRunning' in Lots module is always true. What's the problem?

  • JavaScript onClick() Display

    - by junaidkaps
    I have an array consisting of several objects containing Strings. I am successfully able to display the array by using: <td><p onclick="theMiddle(this)">The Middle</td> As you see from the td tag this is part of a table. Issue is that the browser opens up a new page to display my text. I have been trying to display the array above my table in a p tag. //JavaScript var arrayTheMiddle = new Array (showName.theMiddle, beginingTime.theMiddle, network.abc, duration.thirty, rating.general, description.theMiddle, showImage.theMiddle); function theMiddle(obj){ for(i=0; i < arrayTheMiddle.length; i++) { document.write(arrayTheMiddle[i] + "<br>"); } } //HTML File <p>Would like the array/function displayed here while the user clicks within the table below (entire table has not been listed)</p> <td><p onclick="theMiddle(this)">The Middle</td> Unfortunately I am constantly failing at utilizing get element by id to call my function which consists of an array. I have searched for all sorts of stuff, yet frankly I'm lost. Not even sure if my approach is correct at this point. I'm sure this is one of those simple things that are blowing over my head!

  • Help with shopping cart in javascript

    - by user228390
    Hey guys, I'm having problems with my shopping cart. What I am trying to do is make a function that will add an item the cart and then and function that will view the cart and show the details. But what I have got so far does not do that, it just simply adds and goes straight to view cart. Also I wanted to store the name of each items in different global arrays (name, price and sum) but I can't get it work that way. Can any help me overcome this problem? Edit: I've tried to get it to work by adding some more items and attaching it to another html page, but now the code does not seem to work at all , before it showed the price and total and now I get nothing . javascript code function round_total (c) { var pennies = c * 100; pennies = Math.round(pennies); var strPennies = "" + pennies; var len = strPennies.length; return parseFloat(strPennies.substring(0, len - 2) + "." + strPennies.substring(len - 2, len)); } // End of round_total function. /* Start of generate_page function. */ function generate_page (form) { tax = 0.08; delivery_p = 2.99; var odate = new Date(); var qty = form.quantity.value; var product_v = new String(form.product.value); var total_price = product_v.substr(product_v.indexOf("$") + 1, product_v.length - product_v.indexOf("$")); var price_without_tax = round_total(qty * total_price); var ttax = round_total(price_without_tax * tax); var delivery = round_total(qty * delivery_p); var total_p = round_total(price_without_tax + ttax + delivery); document.writeln("Quantity: " + qty + "<br>"); document.writeln("Price: $" + total_price + "<br>"); document.writeln("Delivery: $" + delivery + "<br>"); document.writeln("Total: $" + total_p + "<br>"); document.writeln("Order placed on: " + odate.toGMTString()); } function calculate() { round_total (c)(); generate_page (form)(); } HTML code: Shopping cart Welcome, Guest Login Sign Up Stay Updated: Subscribe via RSS Email Updates <div id="header"> <div id="branding" class="container"> <h1>The Finest Toy<br /> Store Online</h1> <p class="desc">If you're looking for a toy shop then look no further.<br/> Go on, treat the kids with our huge selection of<br/>online toy shops selling toys for all ages.</p> </div><!-- end branding --> <div id="navigation"> <ul id="menu" class="container"> <li><a href="#">HOME</a></li> <li><a href="#">ABOUT</a></li> <li><a href="#">Online Store</a></li> <li><a href="#">CONTACT</a></li> </ul> </div><!-- end navigation --> </div><!-- end header --> Shopping Cart Nintendo DS Xbox Product: Console £149.99 Console + Games £169.99 Quantity: Product: Console £149.99 Console + Games £169.99 Quantity:     Playstation 3 Wii Product: Console £149.99 Console + Games £169.99 Quantity:   Product: Console £149.99 Console + Games £169.99 Quantity:        <input type="submit" value="Add to cart" name="submit" onClick="cart()";/><input , type="reset" value="Reset" name="reset" Copyright © 2010 shopping cart.

  • Javascript Instance Variable Syntax (AJAX page refresh)

    - by Rosarch
    I'm having difficulty with Javascript instance variables. I'm trying to make an easy way to refresh the chat page, looking for new messages. The AJAX call supplies a mid, or the lowest message id to be returned. This allows the call to only ask for the most recent messages, instead of all of them. MessageRefresher.prototype._latest_mid; function MessageRefresher(latest_mid) { this._latest_mid = latest_mid; // it thinks `this` refers to the MessageRefresher object } MessageRefresher.prototype.refresh = function () { refreshMessages(this._latest_mid); // it thinks `this` refers to the window this._latest_mid++; } function refreshMessages(latest_mid) { $.getJSON('API/read_messages', { room_id: $.getUrlVar('key'), mid: latest_mid }, function (messages) { for (var i = 0; i < messages[0].length; i++) { var newChild = sprintf("<li>%s: %s</li>", messages[1][i], messages[0][i]); $("#messages").append(newChild); } }); var messageRefresher = new MessageRefresher(0); setInterval(messageRefresher.refresh, 1000); This results in all the messages being printed out, over and over again. I know it has other bugs, but the main issue I'm trying to work out right now is the use of the instance variable. Or is there another way I should be going about doing this?

It works perfectly but the problem is I want one div to close when another one is opened. The div's open fine but it does not close the others. An example code is below. What am I doing wrong? JavaScript: if(document.getElementById('catgry').value == '01'){ document.getElementById('post04').style.visibility = "visible"; document.getElementById('post04').style.display = ""; document.getElementById('post07').style.visibility = "hidden"; document.getElementById('post07').style.display = "none"; }else if(document.getElementById('catgry').value == '02'){ document.getElementById('post02').style.visibility = "visible"; document.getElementById('post02').style.display = ""; document.getElementById('post04').style.visibility = "hidden"; document.getElementById('post04').style.display = "none"; document.getElementById('post07').style.visibility = "hidden"; document.getElementById('post07').style.display = "none"; } HTML: <div id="post04" style="visibility:hidden; display:none;"> <table class="posttb"><tr> <td width="30%">Author</td> <td><input type="text" name="author" size="30" class="postfd"></td> </tr> </table> </div>

  • javascript split() array contains

    - by Mahesha999
    While learning JavaScript, I did not get why the output when we print the array returned of the Sting.split() method (with regular expression as an argument) is as explained below. var colorString = "red,blue,green,yellow"; var colors = colorString.split(/[^\,]+/); document.write(colors); //this print 7 times comma: ,,,,,,, However when I print individual element of the array colors, it prints an empty string, three commas and an empty string: document.write(colors[0]); //empty string document.write(colors[1]); //, document.write(colors[2]); //, document.write(colors[3]); //, document.write(colors[4]); //empty string document.write(colors[5]); //undefined document.write(colors[6]); //undefined Then, why printing the array directly gives seven commas. Though I think its correct to have three commas in the second output, I did not get why there is a starting (at index 0) and ending empty string (at index 4). Please explain I am screwed up here.

  • How can I design a custom control in Javascript (possibly using jQuery)

    - by Mathieu Pagé
    I'd like to create a custom control in javascript. The goal is to create a building block that has methods, properties and events and render into a div. An example of one such control would be a calendar. It would render into a div, it would have properties that would define how it's displayed and what date is selected or highlighted, it would have methods to change the current month or to select some date and it would raise events when a day is clicked or the current month is changed by a user input. I can think of lots of way to implement this and I'm not sure what is the best way. I seem to remember that it's a bad thing to augment a DOM elements with properties and method, so I ruled that out. A jQuery plugin seems like a good idea, however I'm not sure if it's appropriate to create a plugin for each and every method my control would have so I could then use it like : $('#control').method1(); $('#control').method2(); And if I do use jQuery, where do I store the private data of my control? Another idea I got was to create a new kind of object that would have a reference to a div in which it could render it's elements. So what is the prefered way to do this. If I can I would like to do this as a jQuery plugin, but I'd need guidlines on how to create methods and where to store private data. I've loked at Plugins/Authoring on jQuery website and it did not helped that much in this regard.

  • How to report progress of a JavaScript function?

    - by LambyPie
    I have a JavaScript function which is quite long and performs a number of tasks, I would like to report progress to the user by updating the contents of a SPAN element with a message as I go. I tried adding document.getElementById('spnProgress').innerText = ... statements throughout the function code. However, whilst the function is executing the UI will not update and so you only ever see the last message written to the SPAN which is not very helpful. My current solution is to break the task up into a number of functions, at the end of each I set the SPAN message and then "trigger" the next one with a window.setTimeout call with a very short delay (say 10ms). This yields control and allows the browser to repaint the SPAN with the updated message before starting the next step. However I find this very messy and difficult to follow the code, I'm thinking there must be a better way. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there any way to force the SPAN to repaint without having to leave the context of the function? Thanks

  • JavaScript, jQuery, XML - if statement not executing for unknown reason

    - by Jack Roscoe
    Hi, I have a 'for' loop which extracts data from an XML document and adds it into some JavaScript objects, each time the loop executes I want it to run a certain function depending on the value of the attribute 'typ' which is being retrieved from the xml. Currently, the data from the XML is successfully being parsed, which is proven by the first 'alert' you can see which produces the correct value. However, neither of the 'alert' lines in the 'if' statement lower down are being executed and as a result I cannot test the 'ctyp3' function which is supposed to be called. Where have I gone wrong? for (j=0; j<arrayIds.length; j++) { $(xml).find("C[ID='" + arrayIds[j] + "']").each(function(){ // pass values questions[j] = { typ: $(this).attr('typ'), width: $(this).find("I").attr('wid'), height: $(this).find("I").attr('hei'), x: $(this).find("I").attr('x'), y: $(this).find("I").attr('x'), baC: $(this).find("I").attr('baC'), boC: $(this).find("I").attr('boC'), boW: $(this).find("I").attr('boW') } alert($(this).attr('typ')); if ($(this).attr('typ') == '3') { ctyp3(x,y,width,height,baC); alert('pass'); } else { // Add here alert('fail'); } }); }

    Hi guys, been bagging my head over some Javascript, please help, I cant see why it simply wont find my cookie in IE 7 or 8 I am setting the cookie true through another event, but I just want to see IE pick up the cookie which I initially set. Works in firefox too, thanks in advance. var t=setTimeout("doAlert()",8000); var doAlertVar = true; document.cookie = "closed=0;expires=0;path="; function readCookie(name) { var nameEQ = name + "="; var ca = document.cookie; alert(ca); ca = ca.replace(/^\s*|\s*$/g,''); ca = document.cookie.split(';'); for(var i=0;i < ca.length;i++) { var c = ca[i]; while (c.charAt(0)==' ') c = c.substring(1,c.length); if (c.indexOf(nameEQ) == 0) return c.substring(nameEQ.length,c.length); } return null; } function doAlert(){ if(readCookie('closed')==1){ doAlertVar = false; } if(readCookie('closed')==0){ alert("unlicensed demo version\nbuy online at"); } t=setTimeout("doAlert()",5000); }

  • Javascript document.open asynchronous?

    - by Alex Schneider
    So on my site there is a Javascript function that will load a new site from the server via XMLHttpRequest. After that it replaces the current page with the new one: var post = new XMLHttpRequest(); post.open('POST', data); post.onload = function() { var do = document.open("text/html", "replace"); do.write(post.responseText); do.close(); goOn(); } function goOn() { console.log($('img:visible')); } Some could assume that after do.close() the document has changed and is ready. But it is not, e.g. if i load very much/big data/responseText the function goOn() only logs an empty result. Obviously goOn() gets in that case called before the DOM is ready to be read! Unfortunately the is no "ready" event fired after write() finished.... How can i be sure it is finished? /EDIT: goOn() logs this to Chrome Console: [prevObject: p.fn.p.init[1], context: #document, selector: "img:visible"] context: #document length: 0 prevObject: p.fn.p.init[1] selector: "img:visible" __proto__: Object[0] But if i right after that type $('img:visible') into console manually it shows me all images....

  • client-side data storage and retrieval with html and javascript

    - by pedalpete
    I'm building what I am hoping to be a fairly simple, quick and dirty demo app. So far, I've managed to build a bunch of components using only html and javascript. I know that eventually I'll hook-up a db, but at this point I'm just trying to show off some functionality. In the page, a user can select a bunch of other users (like friends). Then they go to a separate html page and there is some sorting info based on the selected users. So my first attempt was to put the selected users object into a cookie, and retrieve the cookie on the second page. Unfortunately, if the user changed their selection, the cookie wasn't getting updated, and my searches on StackOverflow seemed to say that deleting and updating cookies is unreliable. I tried function updateCookie(updatedUserList){ jQuery.cookie('userList',null); jQuery.cookie('userList',updatedUserList); } but though it set the cookie to null, it wouldn't update it on the second value. So I decided to put the selected users object into a form. Unfortunately, it looks like I can't retrieve the contents from the form on the client-side, only on the server-side. Is there another way to do this? I've worked in PHP and Rails, but I'm trying to do this quickly and simply before building it out into something larger and am trying to avoid any server-side processing for now, which I have managed to do up to this point.
