Help with javascript function

I am getting a list of document urls from First Class by a
loop, and I need to know how to save the identity of the one in the
list that the user clicks on. I have tried many methods, but have
nearly succeeded, if only I can solve the following problem. I have
a javascript function called by the onclick method of <a
href>, and I have used ToScript to pass the identity on to the
next page. But I can't put the javascript variable into th
ecoldfusion array. Here's the script:
function getUrlNameFromLink(linkNumber){
<cfoutput>
var #toScript(XMLContent.rss.channel.item[3].link.xmlText,
"jsURL")#;
</cfoutput>
alert(jsURL)
This gives the correct link to the alert, if I hard-code the
3 into the bracket. How do I use the linkNumber variable
instead?

well, using AJAX, and if your cf array is stored in a
persistent scope
(i.e. session), you could actually do it...

    select (date2-date1)/24 from dual;date2-date1 is amount of days. Divide it by 24 and what? if you multiply it on 24 you will have a chance to know how many hours between these two dates. :-)Don't forget that a DATE type also includes a time component.I suppose it doesn't matter if you did a difference between two dates. The result is always number of days.

  • Problem saving Reader extended PDF created in Livecycle with Javascript functions built in

    Afternoon
    I have created an interactive PDF in Livecycle with built in Javascript functionality.  I need users to be able to complete and save the PDF so have saved it as a Reader extended PDF.  The problem I'm having is that when a user completes the form,saves it, and then opens it again the Javascript functionality is not showing despite showing the original selection that the user has made.  The Javascript is simply a dropdown menu that will show a different table based on the selection so isn't anything major.
    I've trawled forums and this is driving me mad so I'd appreciate some help.
    I am using Adobe Pro XI.
    Thanks in advance

  • Need help with effect / function stop!

    Hi all!
    I tried to build some kind of custom pop-up-menu with fade
    in/out effect, however the menu sometimes (< very often, but not
    always) disappears while the mouse is still over it.
    So i defined a function to stop/abort the effects, but this
    doesn't work right.
    Could anybody please tell me, how to stop all functions,
    while the mouse is over a link?
    /// This is the container to appear / disappear:
    <div id="navislide" style="height:292px;
    overflow:hidden;">
    <a href="mylink.html" onMouseOver="killall();"
    onMouseOut="hideit();">mylink</a>
    </div>
    /// This is the link to show the container:
    <a href="#"
    onMouseOver="slidefadein.start();">mylink</a>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function displayblock() {
    var thediv = document.getElementById('navislide');
    thediv.style.display= "block";
    slidetimer = setTimeout('slidefadeout.start();', 2000);
    hideit = function() {
    slidetimer = setTimeout('slidefadeout.start();', 2000);
    function displaynone() {
    var thediv = document.getElementById('navislide');
    thediv.style.display= "none";
    killall = function() {
    clearTimeout(slidetimer);
    slidefadeout.stop();
    slidefadein.stop();
    displayblock();
    slidefadeup.start();
    var slidefadein = new Spry.Effect.Fade("navislide", {from:0,
    to:100, toggle:false, setup:displayblock, finish:hideit});
    var slidefadeout = new Spry.Effect.Fade("navislide",
    {from:100, to:0, toggle:false, finish:displaynone});
    var slidefadeup = new Spry.Effect.Fade("navislide",
    {from:100, to:100, toggle:false});
    </script>
    Probably, its all about the "killall"-function, because when
    the mouse moves over the link, the function to abort all other
    effects, does not take effect.
    Thank you so much vor any kind of help or hint!!
    Cheers,
    idefix

    I would be most interested in a reply to this for I asked
    weeks ago how to use an onClick stop() function for the links in my
    page. I was given the stop function by VFusion (it is to stop
    panels from rotating), but I could never figure out how to actually
    get the function to stop the panels and could not get it no matter
    what I tried, eventually had to take the panel rotation out.

  • Please help with Javascript obejcts hierarchy

    Hi!
    Is following Javascript obejcts hierarchy is right?

    thank u )

    You have to have Acrobat/Reader open to open a PDF and use some or all of the Acrobat JS features.
    When Acrobat/Reader is started various folders are accessed and files within those folders read and processed to create the application. This includes dictionaries, certain global variables, various functions provided by Adobe, and user defined functions or variables. The Adobe provided functions or user provided functions or variables are accessed by their assigned name. So if you created an application folder level function in a file called 'hello.js' containing the following code:
    function HelloWorld()
    app.alert('Hello World!');
    return;
    HelloWorld();
    Each time you open Acrobat an alert box with "Hello World!" will appear.  So even without any PDF open one can perform or have a task done. With application level scripts, you can add menu item, tool bar buttons, or modify menu items, etc. So when you open Acrobat you could have a menu item to create a new blank PDF or add the JS API Reference to the "Help" menu item. And if you selected "Help => JavaScript API', the JS API Reference file would open, whether there is an open PDF or not.
    PDF files are opened at the application level, as the application needs to interpret the code of the PDF file and provide the necessary resources for displaying, calculating, linking, etc for the open PDFs. If you open a PDF pragmatically, you need to provide an object name to that PDF. Especially if you are going to reference that file with JavaScript.
    Within an open PDF there are various actions. The first is the document level scripts that are used to establish the environment in which that PDF will function. This could include special functions to sum values, compute date differences, perform special key stroke and formatting. There can even be test to see if there are any necessary application level functions available for use the the document.
    Within PDF document you can can fields, links, comments, etc. And these items only exist in the PDF document and rely on the PDF document for performing the various task or communicating those task the the application.
    By the way with the "HelloWorld" function defined in the application JavaScirpt folder, and PDF opened on that computer can have a button with the 'mouse up' action JavaScript of "HelloWorld();" for the code and any time that button is pressed the alert box that appeared when Acrobat was started will appear. But if you take that PDF to another computer that does not have that file nothing will happen or an error box will appear.
    See Getting Started - Developing for PDF by Dave Wright and look around the Planet PDF site.
    You also need to realize that Acrobat JavaScript does not run synchronously, so you do not always have the individual scripts running in the same order or speed so it is possible a script will not always start and end before the next script in line is started or ends. And if you have dependencies between these scripts you need to test to see if they are all met.

  • Help with Javascript/Calculations

    Hello,
    Have a building use policy for school.
    Need help with checkboxes and default values.  I can get javascript/math to work when I click check box.
    Someone wants to rent a room they check the rentRoom checkbox.  Then the enter how many rooms 1,2,3 etc..  The value for the rentRoom checkbox is $25.
    I can get it when the checkbox for rentRoom is selected the rentRoom.Total computes correctly.  However, what I want is when the form opens up a default value of $0.00 to be in there.  I also want if someone goes back and unchecks the rentRoom checkbox the value goes back to $0.00 not just blank.   Right now I am getting the error the value entered does not match the value of the field.  That is if I put the default value in options.  Basically, I can't seem to figure out the javascript code to get this to work.
    Am I asking for too much, can someone guide me to javascript to help me out.
    I have tried if/then statements and switch statements.  I just can't figure out how to get it to for lack of better a word - toggle back and forth.
    If this is not possible please tell me.  If it is too complicated tell me.  I am not using livecycle for this as we had a word document and I just used the find form fields.  I am also using Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Thanks that looks good.  I am still missing something but the calc doesn't work when I put in my variables.  I will work with it more but nothing happens.
    The one thing is I have the default value of the checkbox as 15 so don't know if that messes it up.
    Right now I get the default value of $0.00 all the time.  When I click on the check box on/off it doesn't do the calcs.
    sorry, any more input, what am i missing??
    I also changed the syntax error that was posted on your origianl post.  You had == 'Off" I changed that to 'Off'

  • Need Help with Javascript for Acrobat Pro 9

    Hello,
    I am creating a PDF form in Adobe Acrobat Profession 9.  Not having a lot of experience with Javascript, I have found this forum very helpful and have used many of the script examples for other issues I have had.  I was hoping someone could help with the following script, I have tried many variations, cannot get it to work.
    var ratio = this.getField("ratio").value
    var concentration = this.getField("concentration").value
    var result = this.getField("result").value
    if(ratio.value>=50.00)
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    if(ratio.value".value>=40.00)
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    if((concentration.value ==61) && (ratio.value >= 49.25))
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    if((concentration.value ==61) && (ratio.value >= 39.25))
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    if((concentration.value ==62) && (ratio.value >= 48.50))
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    if((concentration.value ==62) && (ratio.value >= 38.50))
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    else
    {result.value = 'FAIL';}
    This is just a piece of the code  The concentration values run from 61 through 99 and the ratio value varies for each concentration value, there is a high ratio and a low ratio.  The result of this field with populate the results field with a PASS or FAIL.  This is not working......any help is greatly appreciated!

    Thanks George.  I updated the script to:
    // Get a reference to the result field
    var ratio = this.getField("ratio");
    // Get a reference to the result field
    var concentration = this.getField("concentration");
    // Get a reference to the result field
    var result = this.getField("result");
    if(ratio.value>=50.00)
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    if(ratio.value >=40.00)
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    if((concentration.value ==61) && (ratio.value >= 49.25))
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    if((concentration.value ==61) && (ratio.value >= 39.25))
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    if((concentration.value ==62) && (ratio.value >= 48.50))
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    if((concentration.value ==62) && (ratio.value >= 38.50))
    {result.value ='PASS';}
    else
    {result.value = 'FAIL';}
    However, I am still getting a FAIL result even when the ratio is 50.00 or equal to the passable ratio.

  • Help with showDocument() function

    Hello,
    I am trying to write a segment of code that will allow me to change the URL of a HTML frame, however, it is a different frame than that which contains the applet.... I have tried looking at the documentation for the showDocument function, but I cannot find anything that will allow me to specify the frame in which the document should be shown. Basically, I would like to know how, if you have 2 frames on a page, how to modify the top one from the bottom one when the bottom one is running an applet. Help is greatly appreciated, thanks beforehand.
    Cheers

    As an experiment, try to use a javascript function attached to a button that is in the same frame as the applet.
    If that function does the trick (change the page displayed in the other frame), there are ways to call it from your applet (Search for "JSObject"). I propose the experiment first, because I don't know if javascript can do it, but I suppose it should.

  • Please Please help with JavaScript and Actions

    Hello!
    Is there a way to perform a saved Action from the Action Pallette using a JavaScript script? I know there is a way to do it with Visual Basic.
    Is there a way to run a Visual Basic script from a JavaScript script?(which could be a potential workaround if JavaScript CANNOT call on an Action)
    Is there a way to call on a JavaScript from an Action?
    Here's specific information on my problem:
    I am using Illustrator CS2 on a PC
    I have written all of the JavaScript scripts that I need to perform various layer selection procedures and they all work perfectly. I have placed them in the Presets > Scripts folder so that they appear in my file menu.
    I wrote a very long action that called on these scripts (using Insert Menu Item > then selecting the script by going File > Scripts) sequentially and did some selecting and copy-pasting and applying graphic styles in between scripts. The Action worked PERFECTLY and ran all the scripts I needed to an automated a process that usually takes me an hour in less than five minutes!
    I saved the actions and saved the file.
    After closing Illustrator all of the lines of the action that called on scripts disappeared! It seems this is a known bug...I currently know of no workaround.
    Can anyone help with any of the following things:
    1. Getting actions to SAVE the commands to run javascripts
    2. Writing a JavaScript that runs an Illustrator Action
    3. Writing a JavaScript that runs a Visual Basic script that runs an Illustrator Action.
    I spent three days learning the basics of JavaScript (mostly by trial and error) and successfully wrote all the scripts I needed...I was overjoyed! But now that I've closed illustrator my actions to run said scripts do not work. PLEASE ADVISE!!!
    Thanks in advance,
    Matthew

    try next
    1)if possible split JS-code into 2 parts (before/after action)
    2)make vbs script with contents
    Set appRef = CreateObject("Illustrator.Application.3")
    appRef.DoJavaScriptFile("C:\my1.js")
    appRef.DoScript(Action As String, From As String)
    'add wait while ActionIsRunning
    appRef.DoJavaScriptFile("C:\my2.js")
    3) run vbs (File > Scripts or double-click).

    Hi,
    That's called String Aggregation , and the following site shows many ways to do it:
    http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/StringAggregationTechniques.php
    Which one should you use? That depends on which version of Oracle you're using, and your exact requirements.
    For example, is order importatn? You said the results shoudl include:
    CLIENT_ID  COUNTRIES
    1        USA, Canada, Australia, France, Germany, China, India, Korea, Brazil, Mexicobut would you be equally happy with
    CLIENT_ID  COUNTRIES
    1        Australia, France, Germany, China, India, Korea, Brazil, Mexico, USA, Canadaor
    CLIENT_ID  COUNTRIES
    1        Australia, France, Germany, USA, Canada, Brazil, Mexico, China, India, Korea?

    If you'd like help, post your best attempt, a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements), the results you want from that data, and an explanation of how you get those results from that data.
    Always say which version of Oracle you're using.

    Ok so the cart people (123 connect) who are writing the script for me have nothing to do with the proof part of the page. I just need to send all the selected details in an email to milesmemorials back office, without any involvement of cart or sagepay. As you stated earlier -
    The problem with that in this particular senario is some of the information in form 2 is not contained in form 1 i.e., the name, email etc. I assume that this is because the checkout gateway collects this information. If the checkout is not used then this info cannot be collected
    That is why i did it this way round, instead of having the one form. This is what the cart suppliers have emailed me with regards to how the website, cart and sagepage all integrate.
    1: overview
    to create an on-site order system to link into the shopping cart, the order system will store all the details of the order from each selected page
    2: product page
    we will provide you with the code to add to the page with full details of where on the page to put it, there will be a config part for you to amend so you can get the script to work with the specific page elements.  For example if there are letters on the page then you make the letter script active, if there is a choice of stone type you simply make the stone type active.
    3: cart page
    this will keep a record of what the customer adds to the cart, when they are ready to checkout it will create a file to send to the shopping cart for payment
    4: secure shopping cart
    this is on a secure server and is PCI compliant, it adds on to the system above. This will take the order and link into your choice of payment provider, when complete it will email you and the customer with the order details.  It will also keep a record of the order for eight weeks
    That's why In this particular case, in my opinion, it's best to keep the proofing element and the cart element seperate as you don't have much control over what the cart script does being as though it's an off-the-shelf' solution as many of these payment gateway solutions are and require specific form attributes. It was pretty obvious to some from the outset that it did not require the name, email information etc as that would be added at the gateway stage. like 99% of payment gateways.
    Given that you're now so close to a solution which works independently it's worth investigating if it is possible with javascript of jQuery to update the two forms in tandem as the fields change.
