I am a Bit Beginner In JavaScript. So I need a code about { If we clicked a button a function need to run} more of them suggested this but it still not working ! and I don`t know why? Can you solve it?
if(document.getElementById("btn").clicked == true){
//some code here
console.log("working");
}
<button id=""btn>ClickEvent</button>
Do not use the if. if statement is executed on page load.
Instead, use Onclick() for example :
var data = "";
function clickBtn() {
if(data != "")
document.getElementById("result").innerHTML = "Hello World !";
else
getData();
}
function getData() {
data = "Hello World !";
}
<button onclick="clickBtn()">Click me</button>
<p id="result"></p>
Good question, lets use the an HTML file that references a JavaScript.
So the first file lets call it webpage.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" value="save" onclick="save()"></input>
<input type="button" value="display" onclick="print()"></input>
<div id="area"></div>
</body>
</html>
And the second file script.js
function save()
{
StringTest="Hello world";
}
function print()
{
document.getElementById("area").innerHTML=StringTest;
}
The approach might be a little different but this is recommended as you would more control over the elements in the script.
For example:
<input type="button" will tell the script that it is a form input of the type button whose click will call the function print() in the JavaScript
document.getElementById("area")captures the elements that we define from the Document Object Model(DOM)

Here's the Script.
javascript
function linkPageContact(clicked_id){
if(clicked_id === 'website-design-check'){
$('#website-design').attr('checked',true);
window.location.href = "/contact";
}
}
}
I want to check my checkboxes when I click the button with an id=website-design-check.
Here is my HTML.
first.html
<a href="/contact" target="_blank">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-success btn-block" id="website-design-check" onclick="linkPageContact(this.id)">Appointment</button>
</a>
Here's the second HTML file where checkbox is.
second.html
<input type="checkbox" aria-label="Checkbox for following text input" id="website-design" name="website-design">
Now how can I achieve what I want base on the description given above. Can anyone help me out guys please. I'm stuck here for an hour. I can't get any reference about getting a checkbox state from another page.
To do this, you can modify your button link and add in additional parameters that you can then process on the next page.
The code for the different pages would be like:
Edit: I changed it to jQuery, it should work now.
Script
function linkPageContact(clicked_id){
if(clicked_id === 'website-design-check'){
window.location.href = "second.html?chk=1";
}
}
second page
<input type="checkbox" aria-label="Checkbox for following text input" id="website-design" name="website-design">
<script type="text/javascript">
var url = window.location.href.split("?");
if(url[1].toLowerCase().includes("chk=1")){
$('#website-design').attr('checked',true);
}
</script>
since your checkbox is in another html page, so it's totally normal that you can't get access to it from your first html page!
what I can offer u is using the localstorage to keep the id and then use it in your second page to check if it's the ID that u want or not.
so change your function to this :
function linkPageContact(clicked_id){
localStorage.setItem("chkId", "clicked_id");
window.location.href = "/contact";
}
then in your second page in page load event do this :
$(document).ready(function() {
var chkid = localStorage.getItem("chkId");
if(chkid === 'website-design-check'){
$('#website-design').attr('checked',true);
});
You can't handle to other sites via JavaScript or jQuery directly. But there's another way. You can use the GET method to achive this.
First you need to add to the link an attribute like this in your first.html:
/contact?checkbox=true
You can change the link as you want with JavaScript.
Now it will refer to the same page but it can be now different. After that you can receive the parameter with this function on the second.html.
function findGetParameter(parameterName) {
var result = null,
tmp = [];
var items = location.search.substr(1).split("&");
for (var index = 0; index < items.length; index++) {
tmp = items[index].split("=");
if (tmp[0] === parameterName) result = decodeURIComponent(tmp[1]);
}
return result;
}
I got it from this post thanks to Bakudan.
EDIT:
So here is an short theory.
When the user clicks the button on the first page, then you change the link from /contact to /contact?checkbox=true. When the user get forwarded to second.html then you change the checkbox depending on the value, which you got from the function findGetParameter('checkbox').
As all have mentioned you need to use session/query string to pass any variable/values to another page.
One click of the first button [first page] add query string parameter - http://example.com?chkboxClicked=true
<a href="secondpage.html?chkboxClicked=true>
<button>test button</button>
</a>
In the second page- check for the query string value, if present make the checkbox property to true.
In second page-
$(document).ready(function(){
if(window.location.href.contains('chkboxClicked=true')
{
$('#idOfCheckbox').prop('checked','checked');
}
})
Add it and try, it will work.
Communicating from one html file to another html file
You can solve these issue in different approaches
using localStorage
using the query parameters
Database or session to hold the data.
In your case if your application is not supporting IE lower versions localStorage will be the simple and best solution.

I am trying to pass a particular variable value from the script tag to an input tag. But somehow it is not working.
I am trying to pass variable1 value from the below code from script tag to input tag.
So suppose variable1 value is John then this line in my code will look like this-
<input ONCLICK="window.location.href='some_url&textId=John'">
Below is the code
<html>
<head>
<title>Applying</title>
</head>
<body>
<script>
function getUrlVars() {
// some code
}
var variable1 = getUrlVars()["parameter1"];
var variable1 = unescape(variable1);
// some more code
</script>
<input ONCLICK="window.location.href='some_url&textId=variable1'">
</body>
</html>
Can anyone explain me what wrong I am doing?
Try it that way:
var variable1 = getUrlVars()["parameter1"];
variable1 = unescape(variable1);
document.getElementById('Apply').onclick = function() {
window.location.href = 'some_url&textID=' + variable1;
};
That attaches a function to the onclick event that exactly does what you want. For the initial input element simply remove the onclick attribute:
<input name="Apply" type="button" id="Apply" value="Apply" />
If you wish to perform inline functions, you need to wrap the code in an executable closure:
<input name="Apply" type="button" id="Apply" value="Apply" ONCLICK="(function() {window.location.href='your_data'})();">
As this can be largely unmaintainable, I recommend you abstract this functionality into a more organized place in your application.
(function(window, $, undefined) {
// assuming you use jQuery
$('#Apply').click(function() {
window.location.href = '';// your code
})
})(window, $);
I may be totally misunderstanding what you want to do, but I hope this helps.
The whole url parameters bit is surely unnecessary.
You can just set the value attribute in the field:
var field = document.getElementById('textfield');
var value = 'Some text';
field.addEventListener("click", function () {
this.setAttribute('value', value);
});
Here's a jsfiddle example: http://jsfiddle.net/LMpb2/
You have it inside the ' ' you need to add it into the string. So try
"window.location.href='some_url&textId='+variable1+';'"
I would change it to the following if your trying to bind the click handler to this input element:
<html>
<head>
<title>Applying</title>
</head>
<body>
<script>
function getUrlVars() {
// some code
}
var variable1 = getUrlVars()["parameter1"];
var variable1 = unescape(variable1);
document.getElementById("Apply").onclick = function() {
window.location.href='some_url&textId=' + variable1;
}
// some more code
</script>
<input name="Apply" type="button" id="Apply" value="Apply" >
</body>
</html>
I haven't tested it yet but it should work.
at onclick call a function, inside that function set window.locatio.href !
a sample
<script>
var url="www.google.com";
function myfunc(){
alert(url);
}
</script>
<input type="button" onclick="myfunc()" value="btn" >

I am very new to JavaScript and cannot seem to get the setTimeout command to do anything. I know this has been asked many times before, but I have spent the last two hours looking at all previous cases of it and it still isn't working for me. Here is what I have got at the moment:
<html>
<script type="text/javascript">
var i = 0;
function aloop() {
document.write(i);
i++;
}
function afunction() {
if (i <= 12) {
setTimeout(aloop(), 1000);
afunction();
}
}
</script>
<form>
<input type=submit value="Click me!" onClick="afunction()">
</html>
Can anyone tell me what I should do to make this work?
Pass a function to setTimeout, not the return value of a function call.
setTimeout(aloop,1000);
The problem is you're calling your function instead of queuing your function.
setTimeout(aloop, 1000) NOT setTimeout(aloop(), 1000);
You didn't describe what doesn't work, but I'll assume you want the i to be written in 1000 millisecond intervals.
Do this:
<html>
<!-- you're missing your head tags -->
<head>
<title> my page </title>
<script type="text/javascript">
var i=0;
function aloop() {
// don't use document.write after the DOM is loaded
document.body.innerHTML = i;
i++;
afunction(); // do the next call here
}
function afunction() {
if (i<=12) {
// v---pass the function, don't call
setTimeout(aloop,1000);
// afunction(); // remove this because it'll call it immediately
}
}
</script>
</head>
<!-- you're missing your body tags -->
<body>
<form>
<input type=submit value="Click me!" onClick="afunction()">
</form> <!-- you're missing your closing form tag -->
</body>
</html>
I have a number of links, that when clicked on, passes a variable thru to another portion of the page.
Yet, for some reason, I can’t figure it out! What am I missing?
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function myFunction(a){
myid="Hi There!"+a;
return myid;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
Click Me<br />
<script type="text/javascript">
document.write(myid);
</script>
</body>
You are getting a little mixed up here. Even though the function returns a value, it has nothing to return it to. Try this:
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function myFunction(a){
myid="Hi There!"+a;
document.getElementById("debug").innerHTML = myid;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
Click Me<br />
<div id="debug"></div>
</body>
if you want to use it later you need to declare myid as a global variable. its scope is currently only within myFunction. also the document.write() function will only execute at runtime so you need to have another function the executes that with every click, or just combine the two.
When you click the link all that happens is that the myFunction() is called which returns the string. The line document.write(myid); is not executed anymore so nothing is visible.
<script>
// This is global
var myid = ''
myfunc = function(a){
myid = "Hi There!" + a;
alert(myid);
}
test_global = function(){
alert(myid);
}
</script>
Set MYID
<input type="button" onclick="test_global();" value="Test MYID" />
Here is a simple example of some similar stuff:
clickme or ClickMeAlso
<input id='other' type='text'/>
<script>
function myfunc(a) {
return a + " howdy";
};
</script>

I am following a JavaScript tutorial on the W3Schools website and I have the following code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello!</title>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
function confirmShow
{
var r = confirm("Press one...")
if (r == true)
{
alert("Button pressed == OK")
}
if (r == false)
{
alert("Button pressed == Cancel")
}
}
</script>
<input type="button" onclick="confirmShow()" value="Show Confirm Box" />
</body>
</html>
and whenever I preview it in Coda or in Safari the alert never shows up.
Thanks in advance!
"function confirmShow" => "function confirmShow()"
Firebug is good for js debugging, try it. Safari has options too, AFAIK.
function confirmShow
{
function confirmShow()
{
?
I don't know if this is your problem, but your button is outside the <body> tag. That might cause you some trouble...
Also one would usually put a script like this in the <head> element. Just FYI.
1) w3schools is filled with errors and omissions. Better tutorials can be found at howtocreate.co.uk
2) You have no DOCTYPE declaration, and you're using XHTML syntax.
2.1) IE doesn't support true, see webdevout.net/articles/beware-of-xhtml for more information
3) You need to encapsulate the within a element as well as another block-level element as per the specification
See below for a proper HTML5 document. Notice the location and syntax
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello!</title>
<script>
function confirmBox() {
var ret = confirm('Some Text');
/*
Note the 3 equal signs. This is a strict comparison operator, to check both the 'value' as well as the type. see https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Core_JavaScript_1.5_Reference/Operators for more
*/
if(ret === true) {
alert('Alert box for "Okay" value');
}
else if(ret === false) {
alert('Alert box for "Cancel" value');
}
}
window.onload = function() {
// Execute the confirmBox function once the 'button' is pressed.
document.getElementById('confirmBox').onclick = confirmBox;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<p>
<input type="button" id='confirmBox' value="Show Confirm Box">
</p>
</form>
</body>
</html>
