Passing a var as an argument
- by Lienau
On a site I'm making I need to have a progress bar, I found one that suited my needs. By default it will incrementally change the color when a certain percentage is reached (0-30 red, 30-70 orange, etc). My only problem is changing them, I can set them easily with a static number such as 50, but when I try to do it dynamically (ie: 2000*.3 = 600) it fails. I don't know much js/jquery so this is especially difficult for me, if you could help that would be great. I'm pretty sure it's something really simple I'm missing.
The code that Fails:
var barmax = 2000;
var orangeBound = Math.round(barmax * .3);
var greenBound = Math.round(barmax * .7);
//alert(orangeBound+":"+greenBound);
$("#pb1").progressBar({ max: barmax, textFormat: 'fraction',
barImage: {
0: 'images/progressbg_red.gif',
orangeBound: 'images/progressbg_orange.gif',
greenBound: 'images/progressbg_green.gif'}
});
The code that works but I can't use because it has to be dynamic:
$("#pb1").progressBar({ max: barmax, textFormat: 'fraction',
barImage: {
0: 'images/progressbg_red.gif',
600: 'images/progressbg_orange.gif',
1400: 'images/progressbg_green.gif'}
});
