Comments:
<0> so just go var ar;
<0> ar.foo = 'true'
<0> if( ar.foo )
<0> or something like that
<1> is using eval a waste of resources?
<0> avoid it if you can, but if you can't, then well
<0> what are you evalling?
<1> I decided to use eval so I can dynamically create variable names, so I can reuse the function to work for any type of input...but I can easily just do if statements and then you have to modify the code if the fields change (not likly to happen)
<0> dynamically creating variable names is generally considered a _bad_ idea, as you can stop over existing variables
<0> why do you need eval to make the function work for any type of input?
<1> well, I have an object called Complaint() that I populate with information on the constructor
<1> the parameter list is kind of long
<2> would this.form.submit not trigger something in the forms onsubmit event?
<1> i'm taking off eval
<1> im just going to do it with if statements
<1> especially since the code will be run ~100 times every 5 seconds
<1> I dont want my js to be a hog
<0> ...
<0> sounds like you want variable length args
<1> borland: I was trying to use eval to make my code more flexible
<1> borland: what do you mean?
<0> you have a function/constructor which takes lots of args
<0> and you want it to be flexible... do you mean 'accept an arbitrary number of arguments'
<0> ?
<1> borland: can you give me 1 minute so I can paste my code in pastebin and show you exactly what's going on?
<0> k
<1> borland: do you know of a better pastebin then pastebin.com?
<0> nomorepasting.com?
<3> `paste
<4> paste: Paste links, not code ( http://erxz.com/pb/ , http://www.hawkaloogie.com/css/ , http://sial.org/pbot/ , http://tnx.nl/scribble.plp )

<0> lolol
<0> airwave: don't have the constructor taking 37000 parameters
<0> just use an array
<0> so instead of your eval, do this:
<0> complaintInfo[ complaints[i].childNodes[j].nodeName ] = complaints[i].childNodes[j].firstChild.nodeValue;
<2> is it bad technique to have code outside of a function
<0> then you'll end up with a complaintInfo structure, which is what you have anyway, with your this.complaintId = complaintId, etc
<1> so in the Complaints constructor I should just take in an array and look for the variables I want by the key? this.complaintId=array.complaintId; ?
<0> don't even bother
<0> for( var i in array ) { this[i] = array[i]; }
<7> Anybody here good at CSS and javascript both ? ... and have some spare time, and an interest in news aggregator software/websites ?
<0> Actually
<0> hold up
<2> e-head, what are you building
<1> borland: why hold up?
<7> a personal news aggregator site, sort of like gregarius, or Lilina if you have heard of that.
<7> It will aggregate all your RSS/Atom feeds together.
<7> It's kind of like a personal Rojo (rojo.com).
<2> why are you building it?
<7> I've started asking myself that question here lately.
<7> :)
<0> airwave:
<7> I just wanted to learn something about web design, and I dont' like the look of Rojo or gregarius.
<1> borland: yes?

<8> anyone know how I can gather all elements on a page that have cl***="display_<wildcard>" ?
<6> herm
<8> do I just have to recurse everything and parse them all? I know document.evaluate, but yeah, good luck IE
<6> Xedecimal: you are better off using multiple cl*** names (they work like tags)
<0> Xedecimal: var elems = document.getElementsByTagName("*"); for( var i in elems ) { if elems[i].cl***Name.indexOf('display_') != -1; }
<0> something like that
<0> but don't do that
<0> just do <a cl***="cl***1 cl***2 cl***3"/>
<6> hmmm getElementsBySelector('[cl***~=foo]') ?
<8> so sayyy, cl***="box <name>" ?
<8> selector?
<6> depending how good your getElementsBySelector() implementation is...
<6> yes, cl*** works like tagging
<6> cl***="cl***1 cl***2 cl***3"
<8> I don't know if I even have a getElementsBySelector implementation? You mean like firefox vs ie?
<6> Xedecimal: neither has it :-)
<6> Xedecimal: you'd have to write it or get it from somewhere else
<1> borland: awesome! thanks! just one thing, I think "var complaint = new Complaint();" should be moved within the 1st for loop, so I end up with ~50 objects
<1> borland: which I will control by creating a ComplaintCollection object
<8> and and and, can I get all elements with a specific cl*** without a wildcard easily?
<8> if I'm taking the cl*** cl***2 cl***3 path that is
<9> Xedecimal: if you write a getElementsByCl*** function (or google for it)
<8> then I might as well just get that selector one then right?
<0> airwave: sure
<0> that code may not even work
<0> I didn't run it
<0> but it should be sweet
<0> btw the //avoid magic numbers comment is because you were doing if( type != 1 ) continue
<0> but wtf is 1
<0> you're better off at the top doing
<6> Xedecimal: in this case cl*** is better
<6> Xedecimal: you'll need to get the function either way
<0> var XML_ELEMENT_NODE = 1
<8> ok, thanks a ton, never knew this chan existed, I **** at js, lol
<0> if( type != XML_ELEMENT_NODE )
<0> so it's clear what you're checking against
<6> borland: indeed :-)
<8> is there a standard site that has libs like getElementsByCl*** function and the selector one? I found it but I don't want to end up with some makeshift hacked patched remade for someone else one that is, lol
<6> borland: I'm currently rewriting 4 - 5 scripts that magically use "4096" about a dozen times
<0> bewest: heh
<6> Xedecimal: you can consider jquery, or prototype.js
<8> *reads*
<6> borland: (evidently the number of bytes allowed per download or so)
<1> borland: ok thanks!!
<6> Xedecimal: event:selectors and behaviour.js both have a getElementsBySelector()
<6> I think jquery has it too
<10> I am trying to ***ign the background image of a css cl***:
<10> v[i].style.background-image = "url(/images/blogbackground.black.100.png)";
<10> but this doesn't work for some reason,(the element is there, and it dereferences all the way to background-image, but I get an ***ignment error.
<11> How do I add links to css files?
<11> (Using javascript)
<0> omry: use backgroundImage
<0> javascript uses javaObjectSyntax for css properties instead of css-object-syntax
<10> oh, ok (I found 'background-image' in the dom inspector), trying.
<10> well. not I dont get an error, but it doesn't do anyting..
<10> s/not/now
<10> any magical 'repaint' I should call?
<11> borland: What would be the equivelant of <link href="foo.css"> ?
<0> octoberdan: you can do 2 things
<0> much about with document.styleSheets
<0> http://www.quirksmode.org/dom/changess.html
<0> that may let you add another one
<0> or you can use the DOM to create and insert a new element
<0> ie: var obj = document.createElement('link'); obj['href'] = 'foo.css'; document.body.appendChild(obj);
<0> I don't know if either actually work, not having done it myself, good luck
<11> hmm... Alright, thank you
<11> I'll give it a shot
<12> search goole: "javascript change css style"
<11> Yahoo bought goole.com hehe
<11> First link :)
<11> http://css.somepeople.net/dynamic
<11> I think...
<10> can I dump the dom structure of a node into an alert?
<13> if you write a function to do it, yes
<10> how do I iterate on the first level items?
<11> wait, that link doesn't help me...
<11> I want to do a css include, hehe
<13> omry, iterate the .childNodes array
<12> omry: function showproperties(obj) { var out=""; for(var i in obj) { out+= i+"="+obj[i]; } } or something similar
<10> octoberdan, google css alternatives
<10> hmm, just realized I can view the javascript object in the dom inspector.
<10> something is strange: despite having a css rule with background-image, and having the div appear correct, at runtime I dont see any trace of the background image in the dom inspector (js object)
<10> style.background-image is empty.
<14> "toFixed is not a function" what is this
<14> crap
<6> nphase: it means toFixed() was probably called somewhere. as a function. but it's not a function.
<14> deposit = "$"+(otheramt).toFixed(2);
<14> does that look like a function?
<10> yes
<10> () ?
<14> why does it only fail there
<14> everywhere else its used its fine
