These are the test values:

eric,brand,046.123.976,ebrand#example.ca,oop244,dbs201,int222
henry, clay, 034.146.412, hclay#example.ca , ibc233 , oop244 , dbs201 , int222
When the program asks to enter the course code; it is suppose to see if the students have that course and only if they do, it prints that students info.
In my case, even if student does not have the course it still prints it.
Please run the code to see if it makes more sense... I can't explain any better
The problem can be reduced to this:
var Foo = {
courses: []
};
var x = Object.create(Foo);
var y = Object.create(Foo);
x.courses.push(123);
alert(y.courses[0]); // "123"
The reason for this behaviour is that both objects inherit the same prototype and any changes made to .courses will apply to both objects.
For this reason, it would be better to create a constructor function instead:
function Foo()
{
this.courses = [];
}
var x = new Foo();

I want to store an array in local storage, the first time when I run the code, of course, the array is empty and I can not use a loop for example because I can't call (array.length).
so can I tell the compiler for example if the array is null or undefined just put length is zero or assign the value of the array to an empty array?
can I do something like this?
if( userArray == null | undefined) { userArray = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("key")); }
function checkemail(userArray, email) {
if (userArray == null || typeof(userArray) == 'undefined') {
userArray = [];
}
// rest of the code
}
This might be working too:
userArray ??= [];
So i'm trying a simple cookie exercise and when i hit submit it returns undefined. Also is there a way to check what in a cookie in visual studio code?
function setcookie()
{
var tmr = new Date();
tmr.setDate(tmr.getDate() + 1);
document.cookie = "username="+ document.getElementById("username").innerHTML +";path=/";
document.cookie = "password="+ document.getElementById("password").value +";path=/";
}
function getcookie()
{
var Carray = document.cookie.split(";");
for(i = 0 ; i < Carray.length ; i++)
{
var valuearray =Carray[i].split("=")
if (valuearray == "username")
{
var name = valuearray[1];
}
else if (valuearray == "password")
{
var password = valuearray[1];
}
}
alert("username is " + name +" password is " + password);
}
valuearray will be a array, so you need to check valuearray[0] in the if condition.
var valuearray = Carray[i].split("=")
if (valuearray[0] == "username"){ //Here, valuearray[0]
var name = valuearray[1];
} else if (valuearray[0] == "password"){
var password = valuearray[1];
}
Try this
function getcookie() {
const Carray = document.cookie.split(";");
const [name, password] = Carray.map(item => item.split('=')[1])
console.log("username is " + name +" password is " + password);
}
or if you want to transform your cookies into object use this code
function getcookie()
{
var Carray = document.cookie.split(";");
var cookieObj = Carray.reduce((cookieObj, current) => {
const [key, value] = current.split('=');
return { ...cookieObj, ...{ [key]: value } }
}, {})
console.log("username is " + cookieObj.username +" password is " + cookieObj.password);
return cookieObj;
}
// result
{
username: 'usersname'
password: 'userspassword'
}
Please return your result from the functions, I'm not returning anything because I'm trying to match your code.
and answer to your second question. yes you can get value from vscode but for that you need to start your debugging mode
name and password are declared in the block of for, but you use them in out of the block.
change getcookie function to this:
var name="";
var password ="";
for(i = 0 ; i < Carray.length ; i++)
{
var valuearray =Carray[i].split("=")
if (valuearray == "username")
{
name = valuearray[1];
}
else if (valuearray == "password")
{
password = valuearray[1];
}
}
alert("username is " + name +" password is " + password);
As the title suggests, A better coding structure or implementation for my JavaScript below. This checks a ID element values from a form before submitting to a database.
I'm interested to know if I could have reduced the code size/could have implemented reuse of code which will give me some tips for the future!
Thanks.

One thing you can do is to accept an elementId as input to your validation functions. This allows to reuse the same logic for different fields.
For example:
function validate4DigitInt(elementId)
{
var value = document.getElementById(elementId).value;
if (isNaN(value) || value < 1 || value > 9999)
{
return elementId + ": Enter a Integer Value between 1-9999 \n\n";
}else{
return "";
}
}
Now you can validate both RunnerId and EventId using the same function:
var result="";
result+=validate4DigitInt("RunnerId");
result+=validate4DigitInt("EventId");
I have a script that is searching for duplicated text strings in an array and changing the colors.
function checkDuplicates() {
var values = new Array();
var $input = $('input[type=\'text\']');
var error = 0;
$input.each(function() {
$(this).removeClass('double-error');
var that = this;
if (that.value!='') {
values[that.value] = 0;
$('input[type=\'text\']').each(function() {
if (this.value == that.value) {
values[that.value]++;
}
});
} //endif
});
$input.each(function(key) {
if (values[this.value]>1) {
error++;
$(this).addClass('double-error');
}
});
return (error <= 0); //returns false or true
}
<style type="text/css">
.double-error {
color:red;
border:1px solid red;
}
</style>
This is working fine.
However, I need to count duplicated strings and add keep track of whether they are the first occurence of that word, the second occurence of that word, etc.
For example:
Given john, john, peter, doe, peter, john, the result would be john-1, john-2, peter-1, doe, peter-2, john-3.
This is what I currently have:
function eliminateDuplicates() {
var values = new Array();
var $input = $('input[type=\'text\']');
var error = 0;
$input.each(function() {
$(this).removeClass('double-error');
var that = this;
if (that.value!='') {
values[that.value] = 0;
$('input[type=\'text\']').each(function() {
if (this.value == that.value) {
values[that.value]++;
}
});
}
});
$input.each(function(key) {
if (values[this.value]>1) {
error++;
myArray = values[this.value];
for (var i = 0; i < myArray; i++) {
$(this).parent()
.find('input[type=\'text\']')
.val(this.value + '-' + i);
}
}
});
return error <= 0; //return error > 0 ? false : true;
}
But I got this result:
john-0-1-2, john-0-1-2, peter-0-1, doe, peter-0-1, john-0-1-2
What's wrong?
I make some modification:
function eliminateDuplicates() {
var values = new Array();
var $input = $('input[type=\'text\']');
var error = 0;
$input.each(function() {
$(this).removeClass('double-error');
var that = this;
if (that.value!='') {
values[that.value] = 0;
$('input[type=\'text\']').each(function() {
if (this.value == that.value) {
values[that.value]++;
}
});
}
});
$input.each(function(key) {
if (values[this.value]>1) {
var name=this.value;
var names = values[this.value];
values[this.value]++;
for (var i = 0; i < names; i++){
$(this).parent().find('input[type=\'text\']').val(name + '-' + i);
}
}
});
checkDoubles();
return error <= 0; //return error > 0 ? false : true;
}
now I getting counts in sequence but not from 1.
for example if I have 4 duplicated names (Peter) i getting:
Peter-3, Peter-4, Peter-5, Peter-6.
but I need
Peter-1, Peter-2, Peter-3, Peter-4.
what wrong?
I think you're looking for something like this:
function eliminateDuplicates() {
var repeats = {};
var error = false;
//cache inputs
var $inputs = $("input[type='text']");
//loop through inputs and update repeats
for (i = 0; i < $inputs.length; ++i) {
//cache current element
var cur = $inputs[i];
//remove class
$(cur).removeClass("double-error");
//get text of this element
var text = $(cur).val();
//no text -- continue
if (text === "") {
continue;
}
//first time we've came across this value -- intialize it's counter to 1
if ((text in repeats) === false) {
repeats[text] = 1;
}
//repeat offender. Increment its counter.
else {
repeats[text] = repeats[text] + 1;
}
//update the the value for this one
$(cur).val(text + "-" + repeats[text]);
}
return error; // always returns false since I'm not sure
// when it's supposed to return true.
}
PS: I didn't understand when error was supposed to be true, so it's always false. Nevertheless, this should be enough to get you going.
PPS: Plunker here.
This is what I tried so far but still nothing changed. I don't where to start to maybe someone professional can help me get through with this. This is for validation purposes.
Code:
$(function(){
var len = $('#groupContainer > div').length;
var arr = [];
for(var i=0; i < len; i++){
var number = $('#number_' + [i + 1]);
var date = $('#date_' + [i + 1]);
var count = i + 1;
var message ="";
console.log(number)
var a = number.map(function(){
return this.value;
});
var b = date.map(function(){
return this.value;
});
var newObj = {number: a[0], date: b[0]}
arr.push(newObj);
}
var messages={};
var message="";
for(var c = 0; c < arr.length; c++)
{
var groupMessage=false;
for(var d in arr[c])
{
if(arr[c].hasOwnProperty(d))
{
if(arr[c][d] == "")
{
if(messages[d]==undefined) {
messages[d]={groups:[]};
}
messages[d].groups.push(c+1);
}
}
}
}
var lastgroup=""
for(i in messages){
m = messages[i];
var date = $('#date_' + i);
console.log(date)
if(m.groups.join(",")==lastgroup) {
message = message.replace("Group "+m.groups.join(",")+" ","Group "+m.groups.join(",")+":\n");
if(m == "Date" && date.length != 8)
{ message += i + ' is invalid!\n';
}
message+=i+" is required!\n";
}else {
message+="Group "+m.groups.join(",")+" "+i+" is required!\n";
}
lastgroup = m.groups.join(",");
}
if(message)
{
alert(message);
}
});
Fiddle
If all field is not filled show:
Group 1, 2 Number is required!
Group 1, 2 Date is required!
Valid date must be mm/dd/yy
And if date is not really a date:
Group 1, 2 Date is invalid.
And if one of the inputs is invalid.
Group 2 Date is invalid.
If all field is filled do nothing.
I recommend categorize objects by class, example:
.txtNumber for Number
.txtDate for date
You can use regExpAllow for keypress event and regexpMatch for the submit validation.
KeyPress Validation
$(document).on('keyup','.txtDate', function() {
var regExpAllow = new RegExp('[^0-9/]', 'g');
$(this).val($(this).val().replace(regExpAllow,''));
});
$(document).on('keyup','.txtNumber', function() {
var regExpAllow = new RegExp('[^0-9.]', 'g');
$(this).val($(this).val().replace(regExpAllow,''));
});
Submit Validation
$(document).on('click','#btnSubmit', function() {
var regExpMatch = new RegExp('^[0-3][0-9]/[0-1][0-9]/[1-2][0-9]{3}$');
$('.txtDate').each(function() {
if ($(this).val().match(regExpMatch) != null) {
alert('Valid Date:'+$(this).val());
} else {
alert('Invalid Date:'+$(this).val());
}
});
regExpMatch = new RegExp('^[0-9].[0-9]{3}$');
$('.txtNumber').each(function() {
if ($(this).val().match(regExpMatch) != null) {
alert('Valid Number:'+$(this).val());
} else {
alert('Invalid Number:'+$(this).val());
}
});
});

With this you can validate that characters can be entered and how it will be your final result (You can also validate the same way the regular expression of numbers if you want).
Implements this logic in your code.
note: gets a value that properly validate dates and your numbers format.
All that mapping and looping is hard to follow...just loop through the elements once and deal with each type within the loop
function validate(){
var errors = false,
$cont = $('#groupContainer');
// remove prior errors
$cont.find('.error').remove();
// loop over inputs
$cont.find(':input').each(function () {
// use id to sort out type
var type = this.id.split('_')[0],
value = this.value,
msg = null;
if (!value) {
msg = 'This is required';
} else if (type === 'date') {
if (/**** your invalid date method ***/ ) {
msg = 'Invalid Date';
}
} else if (type === 'number') {
if (isNaN(+value)) {
msg = 'Not a number';
}
}
if (msg) {
errors = true;
$(this).after('<span class="error">' + msg + '</span>')
}
});
return !errors;
}
alert( validate() ? 'Form is valid' :'Oooops! Not valid');
It's up to you to do date validation as no format was given
