I need a javascript to solve for X as in the following:
120.85 X
----- = ---
16 24
24 x 120.85 / 16 = X
X = 181.28
Does anyone have such ... or anything like it that I might
play with to do the same ?

I have no code so far. I am JS illiterate. I do a little hacking of
existing scripts when needed, but have never created from scratch.
I used to get JSs from a JS site, but nothing I can use for my purpose.
There are 5 of us who work for the same company and it would give us
a rough idea of how much take home pay we can expect given a certain
amount of hours worked. We all make the same low wages, so we can compare
against hrs worked vs amount paid previously. The numbers used were just
for analogy sake.

Ask yourself:
What is the input format?
What are constants, what are input dependent variables?
What is the output format?
Then look at the Javascript FAQ of this NG and start learing.

It would seem that your problem is not JS, but a lack of programming skills.
Here you are:
window.alert("X = " + 120.85 * 24 / 16);
Beware of the precision error that comes with using IEEE-754 doubles. http://jibbering.com/faq/

Prototype.js was written by people who don't know javascript for people
who don't know javascript. People who don't know javascript are not

I am not a javascript expert and I have a problem that the guru's

I've made a webpage with three frames: top, left and mainframe.
I defined this in a frameset called index.htm.
Each frame is loaded with a specific page: top:title.htm, left:menu.htm

Hi, does anyone know why this:
<a onclick="insertatcaret(window.opener.document.formname.fieldname,'<td

returns a "Unterminated String Constant" error message in IE 6.0 but if
I take out the double quotes around header it does not? I need double
quotes around header, I thought this was possible in javascript so long
as the pair of double quotes is surrounded by a pair of single quotes.

The value of Big-O notation is for scale ability, since quite often a
an algorithm used for small N is forgotten about in a large program
and not changed when the program has to deal with larger inputs.
It's also useful to know the constant of proportionality, for
different platforms, for code optimization issues.

Hi,
Lacking javascript knowledge, I just realized why my project has a bug.
I am using ASP to loop through a set of records while it creates URLs
with a querystring that has a single value pair. This URL needs to open
in a floating window if clicked. (this is for an administrator and so
opening a small floater gives them more efficient access to the data that
will be displayed). I now understand that because the ASP executes first,

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
