This DOES WORK in other scripts I have written, but not here. Why?
Other scripts I have written have been able to display the entire array,
and were able to display 1-2-3 levels deep.
ie Original[0] / Original[0][0]
Am I missing something VERY simple?
Winning answer HERE:
How can I create a two dimensional array in JavaScript?
Works fine?
<html>
<head>
<script>
Original = [
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0],
[0,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1],
[q,w,e,r,t,y,u,i,o,p],
[a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j],
];
function TestFunction(){
alert(Original);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<button onClick = TestFunction()>Test</button>
</body>
</html>
The problem was that you have a bunch of undeclared variables. In an array, strings must be enclosed in quotation marks.
Original = [
[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0],
[0,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1],
['q','w','e','r','t','y','u','i','o','p'],
['a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j'],
];
Here is an updated fiddle

You should quote your "q","w","e" ... characters in the array.

How do I make this work?
<a href='javascript:func("Jack'S Birthday")'>Jack's Birthday</a>
Do as follows:
// How about using variables instead?
var emily = "Emily'S Birthday"
var birthdays = {
john: "John'S Birthday"
}
function func(val) {
console.log(val);
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<a href='javascript:func("Jack'S Birthday")'>Jack's Birthday</a>
<br>
Norman's Birthday
<br>
Emily's Birthday
<br>
John's Birthday
</body>
</html>
Explanation:
Keep single quotes within double quotes when you escape using backslash \
Use double quotes within single quotes when you use $apos;
Best of all, use variables, they ease a lot of pain -
a. You don't have to go into html to modify values,
b. these can be declared at one place, or a single file,
c. They can be fetched from back-end
d. Best yet, no need to deal with quotes!
Apparently you can't escape characters within HTML attributes. The proper way to go would be to use HTML entities like ' :
<a href='javascript:console.log("'")'>click me</a>
See How to properly escape quotes inside html attributes?.
If possible, do it this way
<html>
<header>
<script>
function func(x) {
alert(x);
}</script>
</header>
<body>
Birthday
</body>
</html>
Convert to NCR. This should work.
<html>
<a href='javascript:func("Norman'S Birthday")'>Birthday</a>
</html>
Or.
<html>
<a href='javascript:func("Norman'S Birthday")'>Birthday</a>
</html>
I want to create a website which can tell the circumference of a circle when the user inputs the radius. I've done the code, but its not working. Can you tell me why?
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<form id="ty">
Give radius: <input type="number" input id="radius">
</form>
<p id="sum"> htht </p>
<button type="button" onclick="my()"> Click on me</button>
<script>
Function my() {
var r= document.getElementById("radius");
var a= r*2;
document.getElementById("sum").innerHTML=a;
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
I am getting an error "NaN" when I click on the button
Working HTML demo:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="en">
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Radius to Circumference</title>
</head>
<body>
<form name="ty">
<ol>
<li>Give radius: <input type="number" name="radius"></input></li>
<li><input type="button" onClick="my();" value="convert"></input></li>
<li>Get circumference: <input type="number" name="sum"></input></li>
</ol>
</form>
<script LANGUAGE="Javascript">
function my() {
var r = document.ty.radius.value*1;
var a = r*2;
document.ty.sum.value = a;
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
when writing HTML, you should be certain to use proper semantics.
Specify a doctype, character set and language!
avoid using buttons that say things like "Click on me!" This is
redundant because the user has to read what they're going to do
before they do it. Instead, write what the button will do
on the button itself (in this case, "Convert" is what I used).
you did not include a title in your head.
and are two different elements with different
purposes. In this case, you want .
"function" should not be capitalized.
your r variable did not contain the number the user put in, but
rather, contained all the properties of the input element. You never
specified you wanted the number it contained, so instead, the
variable r contained all the information it could obtain about the
"radius" element including it's colour, it's size, and other useless
things you don't need. You are looking for it's value, hence why I
added .value on the end of that line.
I also added *1 to the end of r's line, so that if the user by
any chance did not enter a valid number, Javascript will correct that
issue (multiplying by one gives the same result but parsed into a number).
you were using the p element for the sum, but that wouldn't be a
paragraph now, would it?
I used an ordered list to add 1, 2, and 3 to the beginning of each
step.
I think you mean:
var r = document.getElementById("radius").value;
getElementByID returns the element, not its value. element*2 = NaN.
You want.
var r = document.getElementById("radius").value;
Also, you might want to parse the integer just in case:
var r = parseInt(document.getElementById("radius").value);
Very simple, from HERE you can find you need to change:
var r= document.getElementById("radius");
to
var r= document.getElementById("radius").value;
You have written whith uppercase F the function, note that the
javascript is case sensitive.
the value of the input element can get using the .value property.
in the input form element does not need twice using the input
keyword, only once on begin.
Here is a nicer way to write that, with some minor improvements.
it's preferred to write the javascript in the head.
by defining the various elements onload later you have faster&easier access to them.
also inline javascript is not suggested, don't write js inside html attributes.
Then talking about your errors:
function is not Function
document.getElementById('radius') should be document.getElementById('radius').value
<html>
<head>
<script>
var radiusBox,sumBox,button;
function my(){
sumBox.innerHTML=radiusBox.value*2
// the use of textContent is more appropiate but works only on newer browsers
}
window.onload=function(){
radiusBox=document.getElementById('radius');
sumBox=document.getElementById('sum');
button=document.getElementById('button');
button.onclick=my
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="ty">
Give radius:<input type="number" id="radius">
</form>
<p id="sum">Enter a number</p>
<button id="button">Click on me</button>
</body>
</html>
writing it this way it is compatible with every browser that supports javascript, a newer proper way would be using addEventListener to add the load and the click handler thus also allowing you to add multiple event handlers, but old ie's wouldn'ty work.also textContent could have prblems...

if you have any questions just ask.
I want to create a list of news on my webpage. When mouse click on the content, there will be a url available. For example apple news
Here are my sample codes, my problem is: when I try to add a variable's value into the href, like href="www.search.com?keyword="+var.keyword, it will display apple news
Actually there are a 50 objects in the variable model, so it will having 50 model.link and model.keywords, please help me to change the sample code which works on w3cshools.com "try it youself". I tried 10 times by really don't know the how to fix it, thanks!
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js">
<!-- should end this tag-->
var model=[{"link":"http://www.google.com?keyword=","keyword":"apple" "content":"This is a news"}]
<!-- miss a ";" at the end of line -->
</script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("p").html("Click <a href=model.link+model.keyword>this link</a>");
<!--Finally this works: $("p").html("Click <a href='"+model[0].link+model[0].keyword+"'>this link</a>");-->
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>A content</p>
</body>
</html>
Quote properly:
$("p").html("Click this link");
you missed comma in your model variable::
var model=[
{
"link":"http://www.google.com?keyword=",
"keyword":"apple",
"content":"This is a news"
}
];
And since its array of object , you need to access it like model[0].link to get first object from model array, like:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("p").html("Click <a href='"+model[0].link+model[0].keyword+"'>this link</a>");
});
Put the link correctly
$("p").html("Click <a href='"+model.link+model.keyword+"'>this link</a>");
This is what you need:
var model=[ { link:'http://www.google.com?keyword=', keyword: 'apple', content: 'This is a news'} ];
$.each( model, function( key, value ) {
$('p').append('Click this link');
});
You need to loop through the array of objects and get values. You can use $.each to make this easy since you are using jQuery though you can just as easily do this with vanilla Javascript, I would also get in to the practice of wrapping strings in single quotes in Javascript, that way you can add double quotes in a nice readable syntax to HTML strings you will be adding to the DOM.
Note that I did not use quotes for object keywords too.

I seem to be having problems converting some php Regex code into Javascript Regex code. The php version works flawlessly, and it was one of our fellow users, jim tollan, that wrote the php code that inspired me to write it in javascript because I need it done on the client-side. The code pulls out content between html tags based on the specified tag attribute (id, class, etc..) and the value of that attribute.
Here is the original code by jim tollan:
<?php
function get_tag( $attr, $value, $xml ) {
$attr = preg_quote($attr);
$value = preg_quote($value);
$tag_regex = '/<div[^>]*'.$attr.'="'.$value.'">(.*?)<\\/div>/si';
preg_match($tag_regex,
$xml,
$matches);
return $matches[1];
}
$yourentirehtml = file_get_contents("test.html");
$extract = get_tag('id', 'content', $yourentirehtml);
echo $extract;
?>
And here is the javascript code I've written and embedded in html file:
<script type="text/javascript">
function get_tag(attr, value, xml) {
var attr = preg_quote(attr);
var value = preg_quote(value);
var tag_regex = new RegExp('/<input[^>]*'+attr+'="'+value+'">(.*?)<\\/label>/si');
// preg_match
xml.match(tag_regex);
}
var yourentirehtml = file_get_contents("test.html");
var extract = get_tag('id', 'custom-63', yourentirehtml);
alert(extract);
</script>
I used the functions defined at phpjs.org to define both preg_quote and file_get_contents
Here is the test.html file that I'm using:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<div id="content">
<!--content-->
<p>some content</p>
<!--content-->
</div>
<label>
<input type="radio" name="testingMethod" id="custom-63">
" Radio Button Text "
</label>
</body>
</html>
When I run the php file, it works, but when I run the javascript code, the alert box shows
undefined
I want to know if my implementation of the expression in var tag_regex is correct, and if it is, is there anything in my code that is preventing me from the yielding the results I want?
I solved this problem by scrapping the idea of using regex, and I decided to go with using the DOM. It can be done rather simply by doing this:
<script type="text/javascript">
var x=document.getElementsByTagName("label")[];
// put the index of the element within the square brackets if you have more than one with the same name
// 0 is the first index
// you can also use getElementsById or getElementsByTagName
var result = x.innerText;
// you can also do x.cell[].innerText if you have more than one item within the element you found above
// 0 is the first index, and any index number should be put within the square brackets
</script>
I know this is simple, but I can't wrap my head around it. Currently the following code returns "[object HTMLDivElement],[object HTMLDivElement]" I'd like it to return "div1,div2". Any thoughts? Thanks guys.
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<script type="text/javascript" src="path_to/prototype.js"></script>
<script>
function linkClick ()
{
alert($$('div.basic'));
}
</script>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<div id="div1" class="basic" onclick="linkClick();"></div>
<div id="div2" class="basic" onclick="linkClick();"></div>
</BODY>
</HTML>
I had the same problem, there is a simple solution :
If varElement is your object containing a [HTMLDivElement] (or other DOM object) simply add '.id'
e.g.
varElement.id
There's an optimization in prototype specifically for this:
$$('div.basic').pluck('id')
If I read your question right, you want a list of div IDs, rather than a string of ids separated by a comma.
var ids = $$('div.basic').collect(function(el) { return el.id; }); //array of ids
alert(ids.join(','));
collect is another name for map, which is allows you to transform the elements one type of collection into another type by applying a "selector" function to each.
alert($$('div.basic').invoke('identify').join(',');
The invoke will call a function by name. The identify function will provide the id. When called on an array it will return an array of their ids. Join turns them into a string with commas in between.
