  • document.onclick settimeout function javascript help

    - by Jamex
    Hi, I have a document.onclick function that I would like to have a delay. I can't seem to get the syntax right. my original code is <script type="text/javascript"> document.onclick=check; function check(e){do something} I tried the below, but that code is incorrect, the function did not execute and nothing happened. <script type="text/javascript"> document.onclick=setTimeout("check", 1000); function check(e){do something} I tried the next set, the function got executed, but no delay. <script type="text/javascript"> setTimeout(document.onclick=check, 1000); function check(e){do something} what is the correct syntax for this code. TIA Edit: The solutions were all good, my problem was that I use the function check to obtain the id of the element being clicked on. But after the delay, there is no "memory" of what was being clicked on, so the rest of the function does not get executed. Jimr wrote the short code to preserve clicked event. The code that is working is // Delay execution of event handler function "f" by "time" ms. document.onclick = makeDelayedHandler(check, 250); function makeDelayedHandler( f, time) { return function( e ) {setTimeout(function() {f( e );}, time ); }; } function check(e){ var click = (e && e.target) || (event && event.srcElement); . . . Thank you all.

  • Help modify a javascript code to perform a div scroll

    - by Jamex
    Hi, The code below uses javascript to smoothly scroll content in a div. I don't need the smooth scrolling action, and only need the onclick action for the buttons. I would like to use this code so that if a scroll up/down button is pressed, the scroll would instantaneously jump up/down to a position, just like if you were to press the reset button (see demo link). If the down button is pressed, it would jump down the position of the content div (say 300px) and show the text instantaneously without showing how the scrolling text. I am not familiar with JS, so it you know a shorter way, please suggest. TIA the demo link is HERE The code is > this.easyscroll = function(){ // id of the container element var > id = "myContent"; // navigation > buttons text var nav = ["Scroll Up", > "Scroll Down", "Reset"]; // id for > each navigation button (OPTIONAL) var > navId = ["btnUp", "btnDown", > "btnReset"]; > > // movement speed var speed = 5; > // desired height of the container > element (in pixels) var height = 200; > // // END CONFIG // do not edit > below this line (unless you want to of > course :) ) // > > var obj = > document.getElementById(id); obj.up > = false; obj.down = false; obj.fast = false; > > var container = > document.createElement("div"); var > parent = obj.parentNode; > container.id="easyscroll"; > parent.insertBefore(container,obj); > parent.removeChild(obj); > container.style.position = > "relative"; container.style.height = > height + "px"; > container.style.overflow = "hidden"; > obj.style.position = "absolute"; > obj.style.top = "0"; obj.style.left > = "0"; container.appendChild(obj); var btns = new Array(); var ul = > document.createElement("ul"); > ul.id="easyscrollnav"; for (var > i=0;i<nav.length;i++){ var li = > document.createElement("li"); > li.innerHTML = nav[i]; li.id = > navId[i]; btns.push(li); > ul.appendChild(li); }; > parent.insertBefore(ul,container); > btns[0].onmouseover = function(){ > obj.up = true; this.className = > "over"; }; btns[0].onmouseout = > function(){ obj.up = false; > this.className = ""; }; > btns[1].onmouseover = function(){ > obj.down = true; this.className = > "over"; }; btns[1].onmouseout = > function(){ obj.down = false; > this.className = ""; }; > btns[0].onmousedown = > btns[1].onmousedown = function(){ > obj.fast = true; }; > btns[0].onmouseup = btns[1].onmouseup > = function(){ obj.fast = false; }; btns[2].onmouseover = > function(){ this.className = > "over"; }; btns[2].onmouseout = > function(){ this.className = ""; > }; btns[2].onclick = function(){ > obj.style.top = "0px"; }; > this.start = function(){ var newTop; var objHeight = > obj.offsetHeight; var top = > obj.offsetTop; var fast = (obj.fast) > ? 2 : 1; if(obj.down){ newTop > = ((objHeight+top) > height) ? top-(speed*fast) : top; > obj.style.top = newTop + "px"; > }; if(obj.up){ newTop = > (top < 0) ? top+(speed*fast) : top; > obj.style.top = newTop + "px"; }; > }; obj.interval = > setInterval("start()",50); }; > > > this.addEvent = function(obj,type,fn){ > if(obj.attachEvent){ > obj['e'+type+fn] = fn; > obj[type+fn] = > function(){obj['e'+type+fn](window.event > );} obj.attachEvent('on'+type, > obj[type+fn]); } else { > obj.addEventListener(type,fn,false); > }; }; > addEvent(window,"load",easyscroll);

  • array_merge vs array_value for resetting array index

    - by Jamex
    I have 1 array that I want to re-index. I have found that both array_values and array_merge functions can do the job (and I don't need 2 arrays for the array_merge function to work). Which is faster for a very large array? I would benchmark this, but I don't know how and don't have the large array yet. Before re-index: Array ( [0] => AB [4] => EA [6] => FA [9] => DA [10] => AF ) After re-index: Array ( [0] => AB [1] => EA [2] => FA [3] => DA [4] => AF )

  • get value from css using document.getElementById().style.height javascript

    - by Jamex
    Hi, Please offer insight into this mystery. I am trying to get the height value from a div box by var high = document.getElementById("hintdiv").style.height; alert(high); I can get this value just fine if the attribute is contained within the div tag, but it returns a blank value if the attribute is defined in the css section. This is fine, it shows 100px as a value. The value can be accessed. <div id="hintdiv" style="height:100px; display: none;"> . . var high = document.getElementById("hintdiv").style.height; alert(high); This is not fine, it shows an empty alert screen. The value is practically 0. #hintdiv { height:100px display: none; } <div id="hintdiv"> . . var high = document.getElementById("hintdiv").style.height; alert(high); But I have no problem accessing/changing the "display:none" attribute whether it is in the tag or in the css section. The div box displays correctly by both attribute definition methods (inside the tag or in the css section). I also tried to access the value by other variations, but no luck document.getElementById("hintdiv").style.height.value ----> undefined document.getElementById("hintdiv").height ---->undefined document.getElementById("hintdiv").height.value ----> error, no execution Any solution? TIA.

  • convert htmlelement to string for comparison javascript

    - by Jamex
    Hi, I am using a function that obtains a target element id at onclick. Example, if I click on the text element that has the id of 'help'. var click = (e && e.target) || (event && event.srcElement); The var click would contain the ref to the id of "help". I want to compare the var click to the string 'help' using the if statement below. if (click == 'about') {do something} The comparison does not work because the var click is not a string. When I use the alert(click) to debug, it shows click as "object HTMLElement". How would you compare whether the id 'help' is obtained from var click? I could write out something like if (click == document.getElementById('help')) {do something} but that would make a long statement. also if the var click is document.getElementById('help'), how would you make a new var "show" as document.getElementById('showhelp') basically, I want to use the same function to generate dynamic responses to each element that was clicked on, and not having to create a separate function for each element.

  • database vs flat file, which is a faster structure for regex matching with many simultaneous request

    - by Jamex
    Hi, which structure returns faster result and/or less taxing on the host server, flat file or database (mysql)? Assume many users (100 users) are simultaneously query the file/db. Searches involve pattern matching using regex against a static file/db. File has 50,000 unique lines (same data type). There could be many matches. There is no writing to the file/db, just read. Is it possible to have a duplicate the file/db and write a logic switch to use the backup file/db if the main file is in use? Which language is best for the type of structure? Perl for flat and PHP for db? TIA

Please recommend a strategy TIA

  • regex pattern to match only strings that don't contain spaces PHP

    - by Jamex
    Hi, I want to match the word/pattern that is contained in the variable, but only match against the words that don't have white spaces. Please give suggestions. $var = 'look'; $array = ('look', 'greatlook', 'lookgreat', 'look great', 'badlook', 'look bad', 'look ', ' look'); matches words: look, greatlook, lookgreat, badlook non matches: look great, bad look, look (trailing space(s)), (space(s)) look. The syntax of the below functions are OK, but it matches everything $match = preg_grep ("/$var/", $array); $match = preg_grep ("/^$var/", $array); (match words with 'look' at the start) but when I include the [^\s], it gives an error $match = preg_grep ("/$var[^\s]/", $array); Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '^', expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE TIA

  • help, stuck with logic variable comparison loop, javascript

    - by Jamex
    I have an input text box for search of input, the id of the text box is: id="search". if a user enters 'cat' at first and hit search. In the function, I get the value 'cat' by using the syntax: var input = document.getElementById("search").value; After that, the user enter 'dog' in the search box and hit search using the same function. The function would assign 'dog' to the input variable. How would I compare the current value (dog) to the previously entered value (cat)? I have tried to assign the original input with a statement, something like var orig = input; but that would only overwrite the original input with the new input. What is the logical approach to this problem.

  • Correct syntax for matching a string inside a variable against an array

    Hi, I have a variable, $var, that contains a string of characters, this is a dynamic variable that contains the values from inputs. $var could be 'abc', or $var could be 'blu', I want to match the string inside variable against an array, and return all the matches. $array = array("blue", "red", "green"); What is the correct syntax for writing the code in php, my rough code is below $match = preg_grep($var, $array); (incorrect syntax of course) I tried to put quotes and escape slashes, but so far no luck. Any suggestion? TIA

  • Recommendation for a Pagination procedure AJAX PHP

    - by Jamex
    Hi, I am not sure the correct terminology for the process that I am trying to describe. I don't even know which platform is underlying the technique. If you understand my description, please give the link to the site(s) and or the keyword name of the process. I think it is done by AJAX, but I am not certain. I use php as the backend code, I just need to find a way to dynamically display the results. Please give suggestions. I forgot the name of the sites that use this, and my link history expired. TIA Description: The page would have a search form and options. After the user submits, the search is initiated, and the results appear inside the dedicated result area. The page does not refresh, just the info inside the result area. The display area will show 20 (or whatever) results (lines). There will be next, and previous buttons. If you hit next, the next set of results will display. I am writing a code that generates 20 results for each display. There is no set number of results, so the results might have a start/first page, but do not have an end page. Each time the user hits 'next', the program would generate/load new results. It would also store previous results, so that when a user hits 'prev', the previous results can instantly come up. What techniques/program are theses?
