Hello Azura. There are many ways u can do that without clicking a button. can u please send me the full code what u are working at. If your form contains three text box means, 1 for entering the first value, 2 for entering the second value and the 3 for total. in the 2nd text box you write the event onblur="calculate()". And your code in calculate function. That will match ur requirement. if any doubts post back it I will help u out.

[HTML]<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function calculate()
{
var total = (parseInt(document.getElementById("cam").value) + parseInt(document.getElementById("final_exam").val ue)) / 2;
document.getElementById("total").value = total;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
Enter a <input type="text" id="cam"><br/>
Enter b <input type="text" id="final_exam" onblur="calculate()"><br/>
Total = <input type="text" id="total"><br/>
</body>
</html>[/HTML]

In the function I used parseInt() for getting the data. In javascript whatever the data got from input item will be defaultly consider as a String. Inorder to convert I had used it

I am not good at PHP. But for your question i.e. adding many values retrieved from the db, wether you display all the value in a table inside a textbox that should be added.

For ex. u are having three values in the DB. u want the reult of the three values added and u are showing all the values in the table like

tr td input --> first data
tr td input --> second data
tr td input --> third data
tr td input --> total value

Like this. please correct If i am wrong anywhere. if this is ur requirement u can easily sum all the values. For each and every input u will be giveing some Id's. set the Id sequentially starting from 0,1 and so on. In the calculate()

[HTML]var i=0;
var totall=0
var x;
while(true)
{
x=parseInt(document.getElementById(i).value);
if(x==null||x==undefined)
break;
else
total+=x;
}
document.getElementById('total').value=total;[/HTML]

If u doesn't need this. pls post me wat u need. Sorry I am not good in PHP

Ramanan Kalirajan

azura

you gave if we calculate one data,right?? what if we want to calculate many data like. the earlier part you gave it's work but if there is one data only..

cam(insert number) + final(insert number) = total (auto)(1 data)

cam (insert number) + final(insert number) = total (auto)(2 data)

acoder

You can use document.getElementsByName("cam") and "final_exam" to get a list of input elements. Then loop over them using a for loop, e.g.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 for (i = 0; i < cam.length; i++) {

   //cam[i] contains the i'th element...

azura

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 <script type="text/javascript">
 
function calculate()

{

for (i = 0; i < cam.length; i++) {
 
var total = (parseInt(document.getElementByName("cam").value) + parseInt(document.getElementByName("final_exam").value));
 
document.getElementByName("total").value = total;
 
}

}

</script>

like this??? i had tried but don't have any data came out... gosh!! very stuck!!

acoder

No, document.getElementByName("cam") returns an array of elements, so something like:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 var cams = document.getElementByName("cam");

var finals = document.getElementByName("final_exam");

var total = 0;

for (i = 0; i < cams.length; i++) {

    var total += parseInt(cams[i].value) + parseInt(finals[i].value);

}

document.getElementByName("total").value = total;

azura

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 <script type="text/javascript">
 
function calculate()
 
      var cams = document.getElementByName("cam");
 
      var finals = document.getElementByName("final_exam");
 
      var total = 0;
 
      for (i = 0; i < cams.length; i++) {
 
          var total = parseInt(cams[i].value) + parseInt(finals[i].value);
 
    }
 
      document.getElementByName("total").value = total;
 
</script>

still don't work..

Dormilich

that's because of a typing error: it should be

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 document.getElementsByName()

// and

document.getElementsByName("total")[0].value = total;

like acoder said, getElementsByName is always returning an array (even if there's only one element present)

azura

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 <script type="text/javascript">

 function calculate()
 
var cams = document.getElementsByName("cam");
 
      var finals = document.getElementsByName("final_exam");
 
      var total = 0;
 
      for (i = 0; i < cams.length; i++) {
 
          var total = parseInt(cams[i].value) + parseInt(finals[i].value);
 
    }
 
   document.getElementsByName("total")[0].value = total;
 
}

if (total >100)

{

alert('Total cannot be more than 100.!!');

}

else if (total<0)

{

alert('Total cannot be negative.!!');

}

else

{

document.getElementById("total").value = total;

var grade;
 
if (total>=80)

{

    grade = 'A';

}
 
else if(total>=70)

{

    grade = 'B';

} 

else if(total>=60)

{

    grade = 'C';

}

else if(total>=50)

{

    grade = 'D';

}

else if(total>=40)

{

    grade = 'E';

} 

else

{

    grade = 'F';

}
 
    document.getElementsByName("grade").value = grade;

}

}
 
</script>

still doesn't work...

[PHP] <?php do { ?>

<td height="20" scope="col"><input name="matric_no[]" type="text" id="matric_no[]" value="<?php echo $row_test['matric_no']; ?>" size="10" readonly="true" /></td>

Are u passing an array of data from the PHP to html. Do You want to find the total for that? Is this your requirement

Regards
Ramanan Kalirajan

Dormilich

there are still typing mistakes...

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 function calculate() {   // line 2

for (var i = 0; i < cams.length; i++) {   // line 16

document.getElementsByName("grade")[0].value = grade;   // line 71

Gah! What a mess. Serves me right for just copying/modifying code without checking and testing. The last line should be using document.getElementById() too.

azura

i'm sory sir...

actually all the record are from my database.... that's why i use repeat region.. once admin find record by search all the data that require display.. but cam,final,are marks to be insert by admin..once admin key in the marks, total and gred will display then the admin save into the database....

acoder

Have you made the corrections as suggested by Dormilich above?

azura

yup.... i also had some new coding it's work..but the value had been set..how to retrive data from database? let say if had 30 data in database?

Dormilich

You can't do that with javascript alone. You need a server side script language, that can query the database for you. Once you got that working, you can retrieve those data with ajax.

regards

azura

must do the ajax also??....can you point me to any source that i can learn about retrieve many data using ajax?? thanks

Dormilich

No. if you query the database before you send the html you certainly don't need ajax. ajax is needed, if you wan't things done 'on the fly' (after page load). but ajax is able to import data directly into javascript.

Well, all that depends also on what data you pull from the database and what you want to do with it (I couldn't figure that one out, sorry)
