Javascript question
I am going over some of my html/javascript beasties that I wrote for
work. I am still confounded why these don't work properly in netscape or
mozilla but do in opera6 and IE 5.5.
For example, these buttons don't display properly in mozilla:
input type=button value=Reset this form onClick=ClearForm(form1)
Then, mozilla doesn't handle arrays, for example, this function doesn't
work:
function ClearForm(form){
for (i=0; i form.length ; i++) {
form[i].checked = false
if (form[i].value.search(/^MARGINS *\$1U? *$/) -1){form[i].checked=true}
par[i] = }
form[1].checked = true
}
Any insight appreciated,
Joel

I copied and pasted that line into a bare html page and it displayed
fine in my Mozilla 1.3.1
Then, mozilla doesn't handle arrays, for example, this function doesn't
work:
function ClearForm(form){
for (i=0; i form.length ; i++) {
form[i].checked = false
if (form[i].value.search(/^MARGINS *\$1U? *$/) -1){form[i].checked=true}
par[i] = }
form[1].checked = true
}
Haven't tried this function in a form (yet), but a line from a function
of mine that does work may give a lead...
for (var Index = 0; Index recipientArray.length; Index ++)
maybe the var is needed?

To get the function to do anything I had to change
onClick=ClearForm(form1) to onClick=ClearForm(this.form)
Inserting alert()s into your function to follow its operation it seemed
to work up to and including an 'else {alert(else)}' below your 'if'
line. After that the alert()s don't run.
Also an alert() inserted to run if the 'if' is true didn't go, but I'm
sorry to admit that I don't know diddly about regular expressions so
don't know if my form entries met the criteria to make the 'if' true.
Used reg. exp. for the first time a couple of days ago to edit a huge
file in emacs. Definitely gotta learn more of that!
an alert() outside your for loop never goes, so it seems the for loop
doesn't exit? Google couldn't find me anything about that 'par[i] = '
line. What's a par
Oh, and disregard previous post about var. Makes no difference it
seems.
