I tried to build an application in which , there is one HTML page from which I get single input entry by using Submit button, and stores in the container(data structure) and dynamically show that list i.e., list of strings, on the same page
means whenever I click submit button, that entry will automatically
append on the existing list on the same page.
But in this task, firstly I try to catch that input in javascript file, and I am failing in the same. Can you tell me for this, which command will I use ?
Till now my work is :-
HTML FILE :-
<html>
<head>
<script type = "text/javascript" src = "operation_q_2.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
Enter String : <input type= "text" name = "name" id = "name_id"/>
<button type="button" onClick = "addString(this.input)">Submit</button>
</body>
</html>
JAVASCRIPT FILE:-
function addString(x) {
var val = x.name.value;
//var s = document.getElementById("name_id").getElementValue;//x.name.value;
alert(val);
}
EDITED
My New JAVASCRIPT FILE IS :-
var input = [];
function addString(x) {
var s = document.getElementById("name_id").value;//x.name.value;
input.push(input);
var size = input.length;
//alert(size);
printArray(size);
}
function printArray(size){
var div = document.createElement('div');
for (var i = 0 ; i < size; ++i) {
div.innerHTML += input[i] + "<br />";
}
document.body.appendChild(div);
//alert(size);
}
Here it stores the strings in the string, but unable to show on the web page.
See this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/MjyRt/
Javascript was almost right
function addString(x) {
var s = document.getElementById("name_id").value;//x.name.value;
alert(s);
}
Try to use jQuery (simpler)
function addString() {
var s = $('#name_id').val();//value of input;
$('#list').append(s+"<br/>");//list with entries
}
<div id='list'>
</div>

I'm a javascript newbie and I have try this.
<html>
<style>
#WoodNumInput {
width:40px;
}
</style>
<body>
<script>
var i;
var woodtypeAB = ["AB_W15_L100","AB_W20_L100", "AB_W25_L100", "AB_W30_L100"];
for (i = 0; i < 4 ; i++) {
document.write("<div id = 'box'><input type ='number' name = '" + woodtypeAB[i] + "' id = 'WoodNumInput' value = " + i + "></div><br/>");
}
</script>
<br/>
<input type = "button" value = "calculate" onclick= "Calculation()">
<div id = "Test"></div>
<script>
function Calculation() {
var ShowResult = document.getElementsByName("woodtypeAB[3]").value;
document.getElementById("Test").innerHTML = ShowResult;
}
</script>
</body>
The value returns undefined and I still can't figure it out.
Thank in advance for your help and suggestions.
This
var ShowResult = document.getElementsByName("woodtypeAB[3]").value
should be
var ShowResult = document.getElementsByName(woodtypeAB[3])[0].value
Since "woodtypeAB[3]" is surrounded by quotation marks it will be interpreted as a string rather than the actual array value.
document.getElementsByName() returns a NodeList of elements so you will have to explicitly say that you want the first item in the NodeList, hence [0]
There are a few things wrong.
First, you're trying to get the .value from a collection instead of from individual elements.
Also, the elements you're creating have a name value of AB_... but you're trying to fetch using a very different name.
I think you perhaps thought that the woodtypeAB[3] you're fetching would somehow translate to the variable and index you used to create the element's name. That's not how it works.
When you created the element, the concatenation did not add woodtypeAB[3] as the name, but rather the value located at that index of that array. So to fetch that particular name, you'd use its array value of AB_W30_L100.
<html>
<style>
#WoodNumInput {
width: 40px;
}
</style>
<body>
<input type="button" value="calculate" onclick="Calculation()">
<div id="Test"></div>
<br>
<script>
var i;
var woodtypeAB = ["AB_W15_L100", "AB_W20_L100", "AB_W25_L100", "AB_W30_L100"];
for (i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
document.write("<div id = 'box'><input type ='number' name = '" + woodtypeAB[i] + "' id = 'WoodNumInput' value = " + i + "></div><br/>");
}
</script>
<br/>
<script>
function Calculation() {
var ShowResult = document.getElementsByName("AB_W30_L100");
if (ShowResult.length != 0) {
document.getElementById("Test").innerHTML = ShowResult[0].value;
}
}
</script>
</body>
Although something tells me that you actually are going to want to select all those input elements and perform some calculation on them. That'll require additional tweaks to your code.
I have this problem here
The problem has been solved, but my question is how can I get the second value from that, or the third one. The sheet will have many tables and at some point I will need a total for each table. Also, is there any solution to automatically find the the array number which contain date row for each table (instead defining this manually). Hope my explanation make sense.
Thank you!
Kind regards,
L.E. Test file
If I understood your question correctly, instead of breaking the loop when a match to "Total" is found do whatever is needed to be done within the loop like so...
var today = toDateFormat(new Date());
var todaysColumn =
values[5].map(toDateFormat).map(Number).indexOf(+today);
var emailDate = Utilities.formatDate(new Date(today),"GMT+1",
"dd/MM/yyyy");
for (var i=0; i<values.length; i++){
if (values[i][0]=='Total'){
nr = i;
Logger.log(nr);
var output = values[nr][todaysColumn];
// Do something with the output here I"m assuming you email it
}
}
The loop will keep going and find every "Total" and do the same thing. This answer assumes that the "Totals" are in the same column. You can get fancier with this if you only want certain tables to send and not others, but this should get you started.
I didn't quite understand the second part of your question...
"Also, is there any solution to automatically find the the array
number which contain date row for each table (instead defining this
manually). Hope my explanation make sense."
I'm guessing you want all the rows that contain "Total" in the specific column. You could instantiate a variable as an empty array like so, var totals = [];. Then instead of sending the email or whatever in the first loop you would push the row values to the array like so, totals.push(nr+1) . //adding 1 gives you the actual row number (rows count from 1 but arrays count from 0). You could then simply loop through the totals array and do whatever you wanted to do. Alternatively you could create an array of all the values instead of row numbers like totals.push(values[nr][todaysColumn]) and loop through that array. Lots of ways to solve this problem!
Ok based on our conversation below I've edited the "test" sheet and updated the code. Below are my edits
All edits have been made in your test sheet and verified working in Logger. Let me know if you have any questions.
Spreadsheet:
Added "Validation" Tab
Edited "Table" tab so the row with "Email Address" in Column A lines up with the desired lookup values (dates or categories)...this was only for the first two tables as all the others already had this criteria.
Code:
Create table/category selector...

I have some simple code that allows you to enter Amazon isbns/asins and converts them to hyperlinks. These hyperlinks are Amazon.com searches for the said isbn/asin.
Example pic: http://imgur.com/a/rYgYt
Instead of the hyperlink being a search I would like the link to go directly to the products offer page.
The desired link would be as follows:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/ASIN/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used
"ASIN" would be where the ASIN/ISBN would need to be populated to generate the link, for example:
Im asking if someone could help modify my existing code to create the change. My skills lack the ability to implement the change. The existing code is as follows:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<div><b>ISBN Hyperlinker</b></div> <textarea id=numbers placeholder="paste isbn numbers as csv here" style="width:100%" rows="8" >
</textarea> <div><b>Hyperlinked text:</b></div> <div id="output" style="white-space: pre"></div>
<input type="button" id="button" Value="Open All"/>
<script>
var input = document.getElementById('numbers');
var button = document.getElementById('button');
var output = document.getElementById('output')
var base =
'https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords='
var urls = []
//adding an event listener for change on the input box
input.addEventListener('input', handler, false);
button.addEventListener('click', openAllUrls, false);
//function that runs when the change event is emitted
function handler () {
var items = input.value.split(/\b((?:[a-z0-9A-Z]\s*?){10,13})\b/gm);
urls=[];
// Build DOM for output
var container = document.createElement('span');
items.map(function (item, index) {
if (index % 2) { // it is the part that matches the split regex:
var link = document.createElement('a');
link.textContent = item.trim();
link.setAttribute('target', '_blank');
link.setAttribute('href', base + item);
container.appendChild(link);
urls.push(base + item);//add the url to our array of urls for button click
} else { // it is the text next to the matches
container.appendChild(document.createTextNode(item))
}
});
// Replace output
output.innerHTML = '';
output.appendChild(container);
}
function openAllUrls(){
for(var i=0; i< urls.length; i++){//loop through urls and open in new windows
window.open(urls[i]);
}
}
handler(); // run on load
</script>
</html>
to modify output URL, replace
var base = ".....';
with
var basePrefix = 'https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/';
var baseSuffix = '/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition=used';
and replace
base + item
with
basePrefix + item + baseSuffix
I want to be able to copy elements with keeping everything that user entered, modified and etc.
I don't want to parse every elem like manually set value for textboxes, manually set checked for radiobuttons and etc, I need some generic way.
Is this possible?
This is what I have as example:
<html>
<head>
<title>asd</title>
<script type = "text/javascript">
function copyElement(elem_id, to_elem_id)
{
var elem = document.getElementById(elem_id);
var container = document.getElementById(to_elem_id);
if (!elem || !container)
return;
container.innerHTML = elem.outerHTML;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type = "text" id = "test_txt" />
<input type = "button" value = "copy textbox" onclick = "copyElement('test_txt', 'for_elem_paste')" />
<span id = 'for_elem_paste'></span>
</body>
</html>
I want that copied textbox to appear with text entered in original textbox.
But this not about textboxes, I need to copy any elements. I though that innerHTML and outerHTML keep things that modified by user :/
You can clone it
function copyElement(elem_id, to_elem_id) {
var elem = document.getElementById(elem_id);
var container = document.getElementById(to_elem_id);
if (elem && container) {
var clone = elem.cloneNode(true);
clone.id = "some other id to prevent id duplication";
container.appendChild(clone);
}
else return false;
}
I need to do the following (I'm a beginner in programming so please excuse me for my ignorance): I have to ask the user for three different pieces of information on three different text boxes on a form. Then the user has a button called "enter"and when he clicks on it the texts he entered on the three fields should be stored on three different arrays, at this stage I also want to see the user's input to check data is actually being stored in the array. I have beem trying unsuccessfully to get the application to store or show the data on just one of the arrays. I have 2 files: film.html and functions.js. Here's the code. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
<html>
<head>
<title>Film info</title>

<h2><b>Data:</b></h2>
<hr>

<div id= "display">
</div>
</body>
</html>
var title=new Array();
var name=new Array();
var tickets=new Array();
function insert(val){
title[title.length]=val;
}
function show() {
var string="<b>All Elements of the Array :</b><br>";
for(i = 0; i < title.length; i++) {
string =string+title[i]+"<br>";
}
if(title.length > 0)
document.getElementById('myDiv').innerHTML = string;
}
You're not actually going out after the values. You would need to gather them like this:
var title = document.getElementById("title").value;
var name = document.getElementById("name").value;
var tickets = document.getElementById("tickets").value;
You could put all of these in one array:
var myArray = [ title, name, tickets ];
Or many arrays:
var titleArr = [ title ];
var nameArr = [ name ];
var ticketsArr = [ tickets ];
Or, if the arrays already exist, you can use their .push() method to push new values onto it:
var titleArr = [];
function addTitle ( title ) {
titleArr.push( title );
console.log( "Titles: " + titleArr.join(", ") );
}
Your save button doesn't work because you refer to this.form, however you don't have a form on the page. In order for this to work you would need to have <form> tags wrapping your fields:
I've made several corrections, and placed the changes on jsbin: http://jsbin.com/ufanep/2/edit
The new form follows:
<form>
<h1>Please enter data</h1>
<input id="title" type="text" />
<input id="name" type="text" />
<input id="tickets" type="text" />
<input type="button" value="Save" onclick="insert()" />
<input type="button" value="Show data" onclick="show()" />
</form>
<div id="display"></div>
There is still some room for improvement, such as removing the onclick attributes (those bindings should be done via JavaScript, but that's beyond the scope of this question).
I've also made some changes to your JavaScript. I start by creating three empty arrays:
var titles = [];
var names = [];
var tickets = [];
Now that we have these, we'll need references to our input fields.
var titleInput = document.getElementById("title");
var nameInput = document.getElementById("name");
var ticketInput = document.getElementById("tickets");
I'm also getting a reference to our message display box.
var messageBox = document.getElementById("display");
The insert() function uses the references to each input field to get their value. It then uses the push() method on the respective arrays to put the current value into the array.
Once it's done, it cals the clearAndShow() function which is responsible for clearing these fields (making them ready for the next round of input), and showing the combined results of the three arrays.
function insert ( ) {
titles.push( titleInput.value );
names.push( nameInput.value );
tickets.push( ticketInput.value );
clearAndShow();
}
This function, as previously stated, starts by setting the .value property of each input to an empty string. It then clears out the .innerHTML of our message box. Lastly, it calls the join() method on all of our arrays to convert their values into a comma-separated list of values. This resulting string is then passed into the message box.
function clearAndShow () {
titleInput.value = "";
nameInput.value = "";
ticketInput.value = "";
messageBox.innerHTML = "";
messageBox.innerHTML += "Titles: " + titles.join(", ") + "<br/>";
messageBox.innerHTML += "Names: " + names.join(", ") + "<br/>";
messageBox.innerHTML += "Tickets: " + tickets.join(", ");
}
The final result can be used online at http://jsbin.com/ufanep/2/edit
You have at least these 3 issues:
you are not getting the element's value properly
The div that you are trying to use to display whether the values have been saved or not has id display yet in your javascript you attempt to get element myDiv which is not even defined in your markup.
Never name variables with reserved keywords in javascript. using "string" as a variable name is NOT a good thing to do on most of the languages I can think of. I renamed your string variable to "content" instead. See below.
You can save all three values at once by doing:
var title=new Array();
var names=new Array();//renamed to names -added an S-
//to avoid conflicts with the input named "name"
var tickets=new Array();
function insert(){
var titleValue = document.getElementById('title').value;
var actorValue = document.getElementById('name').value;
var ticketsValue = document.getElementById('tickets').value;
title[title.length]=titleValue;
names[names.length]=actorValue;
tickets[tickets.length]=ticketsValue;
}
And then change the show function to:
function show() {
var content="<b>All Elements of the Arrays :</b><br>";
for(var i = 0; i < title.length; i++) {
content +=title[i]+"<br>";
}
for(var i = 0; i < names.length; i++) {
content +=names[i]+"<br>";
}
for(var i = 0; i < tickets.length; i++) {
content +=tickets[i]+"<br>";
}
document.getElementById('display').innerHTML = content; //note that I changed
//to 'display' because that's
//what you have in your markup
}
Here's a jsfiddle for you to play around.
