I want to make a page with JavaScript that has a button saying "Multiplication Tables." When I click the button, the multiplication table of 5 will show up in the "p" tag with the id "tables." I want to use a for loop to calculate the tables. Nothing is happening when I click the button.
HTML:
<body>
<button type="button" id="multiplication" onclick="table()">Multiplication Tables</button>
<br/>
<p id="tables"></p>
</body>
</html>
JavaScript:
function table()
{
var button = document.getElementById('multiplication');
var showTables = '';
for (var i=1; i<12; i++) {
showTables += 5 + "*" + i +"="+5*i + '\n';
}
var p_tables = document.getElementById('tables').innerHTML = showTables;
}
table();
Check this snippet by clicking run snippet button below, I think it's working fine
function table()
{
var button = document.getElementById('multiplication');
var showTables = '';
for (var i=1; i<12; i++) {
showTables += 5 + "*" + i +"="+5*i + '\n';
}
var p_tables = document.getElementById('tables').innerHTML = showTables;
}
<html>
<body>
<button type="button" id="multiplication" onclick="table()">Multiplication Tables</button>
<br/>
<p id="tables"></p>
</body>
</html>
Your are missing html tag before body and there might be some problem with your javascript inclusion, Also don't run table() function after declaring it.
Place the script either in head tag or before closing the body. Remove table() function calling after declaring it.

I'm a beginner in javascript and I have a little problem with my code. I found an exercise and i'm trying to do it. I have to write a function that will insert text from variable into table. I never met something like this. This variable looks like four objects in array. I want to show text in the table when I press a button. There are two buttons. When I press "Fizyka" button i should see:
Fizyka
Ola Kowal
Ela Nowak
and when I press "Chemia":
Chemia
Ala Goral
Ula Szpak
So this is my code. All i can edit is function show(study):
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="pl">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
<button onclick="show('fizyka')">Fizyka</button>
<button onclick="show('chemia')">Chemia</button>
<div id="list"></div>
<script>
var student=[
{name:"Ola", second_name:"Kowal", study:"fizyka"},
{name:"Ela", second_name:"Nowak", study:"fizyka"},
{name:"Ala", second_name:"Goral", study:"chemia"},
{name:"Ula", second_name:"Szpak", study:"chemia"},
];
function show(study)
{
if (study==='fizyka')
{
document.getElementById("list").innerHTML = "<h2>student.kierunek</h2><ul><li>student.name + " " + student.second_name</li><li>student.name + " " + student.second_name</li></ul>";
}
if (study==='chemia')
{
document.getElementById("list").innerHTML = "<h2>student.kierunek</h2><ul><li>student.name + " " + student.second_name</li><li>student.name + " " + student.second_name</li></ul>";
}
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
It's not working. I don't know how to insert text from this variable into table.
There is several problem with your code. I have written piece of code which is working and you can use it and inspire.
<button onclick="show('fizyka')">Fizyka</button>
<button onclick="show('chemia')">Chemia</button>
<div id="list"><h2></h2><ul></ul></div>
<script>
//Student array
var student=[
{name:"Ola", second_name:"Kowal", study:"fizyka"},
{name:"Ela", second_name:"Nowak", study:"fizyka"},
{name:"Ala", second_name:"Goral", study:"chemia"},
{name:"Ula", second_name:"Szpak", study:"chemia"},
];
function show(study)
{
console.log('ENTER show('+study+')');
//Select h2 element
var header = document.getElementById("list").firstChild;
//Set h2 element text
header.innerHTML = study;
//Select ul element
var list = document.getElementById("list").lastChild;
//Set inner html to empty string to clear the content
list.innerHTML = "";
//loop through students and set the appropriate html element values
for(var i = 0; i < student.length; i++){
//check whether student[i] studies study which is put as a paramter into the function
if(student[i].study === study){
//Create new li element
var li = document.createElement('li');
//Into li element add a new text node which contains all data about the student
li.appendChild(document.createTextNode(student[i].name + ' ' + student[i].second_name));
//add li element into ul
list.appendChild(li);
}
}
console.log('LEAVE show('+study+')');
}
</script>
I am completely new to HTML and JavaScript and I am completely lost.
I am trying to create a to do list where input adds to the top of the list, and when an item in the list is clicked, it is removed.
I am trying to avoid using JQuery or anything outside of pure js.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<script type="text/JavaScript">
var number_of_items = 0;
var list = [];
var list_container = document.createElement("div");
list_container.id = "container";
function makelist(){
list_container.innerHTML = "";
list.unshift(document.getElementById("todo").value);
++number_of_items;
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].appendChild(list_container);
var list_element = document.createElement("ul");
list_container.appendChild(list_element);
for( var i=0 ; i < number_of_items ; ++i){
var list_item = document.createElement("li");
list_item.innerHTML = list[i];
//The problem is here
list_item.onClick = function(){
alert("working");
list.splice(i, 1);
--number_of_items;
makelist();
}
list_element.appendChild(list_item);
}
}
</script>
<body>
Todo: <input type="text" id="todo">
<input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="makelist()" />
</body>
</html>
The problem is, the list_item onclick function never activates. Why?
I apologize in advance for any problems with the way I stated my question.

use onclick instead of onClick...
or even better ... use event listeners
I use JavaScript to generate form input fields on my page. Everything works fine, except the button. I came across some problems generation the button's onClick function using DOM. You can see the code below, but on my page, there is no the onClick function as the attribute of the input button tag:
n = 1;
function generate() {
var radiomore = document.createElement("input");
radiomore.type = "button";
radiomore.name = "opt[" + n + "]";
radiomore.value = "Add more options";
radiomore.setAttribute = ('onClick',addradiomore);
var div = document.createElement("div");
div.innerHTML = "Op: " + radiomore.outerHTML + "<br/>";
document.getElementById("mydiv").appendChild(div);
n++;
}
function addradiomore() {
//here goes the function code
}
And this is what it generates on my page:
<input type="button" name="opt[1]" value="Add more options">
There is no function?!?!
P.S.
Even if I use like this it doesn't work:
radiomore.onclick = addradiomore();
You should use this:
radiomore.onclick = addradiomore;
DEMO
What about:
radiomore.onclick = function () {
addradiomore();
};
I'm creating a checkbox drawing program using HTML and JavaScript. It basically (at this early stage) involves drawing an 100 x 100 square of checkboxes. The problem is, every time I try to load the page, it doesn't load. It simply displays the spinning half circle (I'm using chrome) forever. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? Here is my code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type = "text/javascript">
function drawBoxes()
{
for(var i = 0;i<100;i++)
{
for(var j = 0;j<100;j++)
{
document.getElementById('drawarea').innerHTML += "<input type = 'checkbox'>";
}
document.getElementById('drawarea').innerHTML += "<br />";
}
}
</script>
<title>Checkbox drawer</title>
</head>
<body onload = "drawBoxes()">
<div id = "controlbar" style = "height:100px;float:top;background-color:#FF0000;"><p>hello</p></div>
<p id ="drawarea"></p>
</body>
</html>
UPDATE: After adding jcubic's catch of the <input> tag, the first <div> (in red) loads, but the checkboxes don't.
Instead of manipulating the DOM 100*100 times, just build a string and set the value once at the end of the loops:
var html = "";
for(var i = 0;i<100;i++)
{
for(var j = 0;j<5;j++)
{
html += "<input type = 'checkbox'>";
}
html += "<br />";
}
document.getElementById('drawarea').innerHTML = html;
Here's the JSFiddle to see that this load very quickly: http://jsfiddle.net/8hVBQ/
I trying to generate an input (type="button") and setting the onclick-Event to a function, which should hand over a parameter. The whole object should be appended to a div and thats it. Basically this is my try, but I can't see why it does not work.
I pasted the code to jsfiddle, hence its easier for you to reproduce. Click here.
What am I'm doing wrong? I'm learning it by trial and error, so please explain whats wrong. Thanks a lot!
[edit] for the case jsfiddle will be down one day, here is the code I tried to run... :)
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>onclick event example</title>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
var i = 0;
var h = new Array();
function addButton() {
i++;
var container = document.getElementById("check0");
var h[i] = document.createElement("input");
h[i].type = 'button';
h[i].name = 'number' + i;
h[i].value = "number" + i;
h[i].id = 'number' + i;
h[i].onclick = function() {
showAlert(i)
};
container.appendChild(h[i]);
}
function showAlert(number) {
alert("You clicked Button " + number);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="check0">
<input type="button" value="klick mich" id="number0" onclick="addButton()"/>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Here is the fixed fiddle for you.
var h[i] = ... is invalid JavaScript.
What you write in the "JavaScript" frame on jsfiddle is executed onload, so this code is not yet present when the HTML you provide is executed (and neither is the addButton() function).
<script>
var i = 0;
var h = new Array();
function addButton() {
i++;
var container = document.getElementById("check0");
h[i] = document.createElement("input");
h[i].type = 'button';
h[i].name = 'number' + i;
h[i].value = "number" + i;
h[i].id = 'number' + i;
h[i].onclick = function() {
showAlert(i)
};
container.appendChild(h[i]);
}
function showAlert(number) {
alert("You clicked Button " + number);
}
</script>
<div id="check0">
<input type="button" value="klick mich" id="number0" onclick="addButton()"/>
</div>
Try using h.push(...) instead of trying to send to a non created element in the array
var x = document.getElementById('pagination');//pagination is an empty div in html
var y ='';
for(var i = 0; i <= (pageMax); i++){
y = y+"<a id ='pageNumber"+i+"' onclick='changePage("+(i+1)+");'>"+(i+1)+"</a>\n ";
} x.innerHTML=y }
i used this to make a pagination for a table. The function will create a row of numbers until button max. 'changePage("+(i+1)+"); ... will call a function and send the i index(number that the page is) of the pagenumber. also i dynamically create a id unique for each number.
