works in Netscape not IE

ozdesign · 02-28-2003, 12:49 AM

Hi

http://www.thehungrypeople.org/new/test.htm

I inherited this from another designer as I am doing a redesign and have trimmed page down to minimal necessitites.

Click on any currency in IE and it disappears though right mouseclick it appears.

Script still operates ok.

Offline it works in IE fine.

Works in Netscape online and offline fine.

Source code shows all the script.

Any ideas?

Thx

Chris

Works just fine here! (IE6.0.2800.1106 SP1).

Netscape 4.75 and Opera 6.04 seem ok, but Netscape 6.2.3 and IE5.5 behave stranglely - things just disappear.

Had a quick peek at the code. I'm sure radio buttons would be simpler - and require less code.

I have the same IE6 as frankc and it works well here too. Also works fine in Mozilla 1.2.1 and in Netscape 4.5...

That's all the browsers I have installed at the moment.

Try something like:

Code:

<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function fnUpdateValues()
{
	if (document.x.abc[0].checked) {
		document.x.tval.value = 400;
	} else {
		document.x.tval.value = 650;
	}
}

// -->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="x">
<input type="radio" name="abc" 
   onClick="fnUpdateValues();" value="USD" checked>US Dollars<br />
<input type="radio" name="abc" 
   onClick="fnUpdateValues();" value="CND">Canadian Dollars<br /><br />
<input type="text" name="tval" value="400">
</form>
</body>

Hi Mark

Very encouraged with your response (and input from others on the board).

I am strictly a designer at present so I can't workout how to add to the jscript code to allow for more than 2 options.

Also on the test form you can select 2 rickshaws and it puts the correct price so there is a tie in with what currency you select and then how much it is for 6 rickshaws at whatever the rate is.

This is the orig page I showed you

Here is the page I modified Mark to show your code. See I have aud and NZ dollars going but I can't get the others to work nor the Sponsor bit.

If you could help me here it would be fantastic and help my client polish off their new look site without the faulty form of the past.

Regards

Chris,

I am mostly a designer, too. When I run into bugs using dense code which is not my own, running the code it through a third-party debugger or validator has helped. Dreamweaver MX writes some pretty tight code, so I would try their validator and see what it says. It could be as simple as syntax and Dreamweaver could spit that back out in a few seconds -- so it's worth a shot. Older versions of DW are good, too. GL.

Peace - Johnny

Thanks Johnny

I am waiting to hear back form Mark on this but I do have a copy of Dreamweaver somewhere I can dig out..I am generally a code man.

Handy to know that for the future too!

Learning a little bit javascript will get you a long way!

I'll let you figure out how to add the other three radio buttons, integrate the Special Build Code, do the type checking, testing, etc, but here's a bit more to get you going.

Code:

<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function fnUpdatePPR()
{
   if (document.x.sCcy[0].checked) {        // USD
      document.x.iPPR.value = 400;
   } else if (document.x.sCcy[1].checked) {  // CND
      document.x.iPPR.value = 650;
   } else if (document.x.sCcy[2].checked) {  // AUD
      document.x.iPPR.value = 700;
   } else {                               // NZD
      document.x.iPPR.value = 750;
   }
   fnUpdateTotal();
}
function fnUpdateTotal()
{
   document.x.iTotal.value = document.x.iPPR.value * document.x.iQty.value;
}

// -->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="x">
<table>
   <tr>
      <td>Choose currency: <td>
      <td colSpan="3">
         <table>
            <tr>
               <td nowrap><input type="radio" name="sCcy" 
                  onClick="fnUpdatePPR();" value="USDRate" checked>US Dollars</td>
               <td nowrap><input type="radio" name="sCcy" 
                  onClick="fnUpdatePPR();" value="CNDRate">Canadian Dollars</td>
            </tr>
            <tr>
               <td nowrap><input type="radio" name="sCcy" 
                  onClick="fnUpdatePPR();" value="AUDRate">Australian Dollars</td>
               <td nowrap><input type="radio" name="sCcy" 
                  onClick="fnUpdatePPR();" value="NZDRate">NewZealand Dollars<td>
            </tr>
         </table>
      </td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
      <td align="right">Price: <td>
      <td><input type="text" name="iPPR" size="6" value="400" readOnly><td>
      <td align="right">Special build code: <td>
      <td> <input type="text" name="sSBC" size="6" value=""><td>
   </tr>
   <tr>
      <td align="right">Qty: <td>
      <td><input type="text" name="iQty" 
         onkeyup="fnUpdateTotal();" size="6" value="1"><td>
      <td align="right">Total: <td>
      <td><input type="text" name="iTotal" size="6" value="400" readOnly><td>
   </tr>
</table>
</form>
</body>

Hi Mark

http://www.thehungrypeople.org/new/r...w_sponsor2.asp

Well I have tried and got the rest of the currency fields to work fine but that Special code thing is a mystery.

I have talked to client and what is meant to happen is that when they insert AUD600 or aud600 in there it makes value change to 600. That is it overwrites what you select in the radio button. Any other value in there makes no difference to the radio button selections.

So I know logically it should say somehow if ssBC=AUD600 or aud600 then write 600 but I can't work out how to incorporate this into the script.

See the original script operation when you add AUD600

http://www.thehungrypeople.org/new/rickshaw_sponsor.asp

If you can help further it would be much appreciated.

Regards

Chris
