Splice Method Question

8 New Member
Hello,
I am trying to save information from a text box if the checkbox is selected. The checkboxes are dynamically created with php from mysql tables, so I don't know the index of the array that I would like to delete. My plan is use javascript to delete the null values from the textboxes so the length of that element will correspond with the length of the checkbox element, but I can't figure out how to use the splice method correctly...
I have this function called with onsubmit...

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.    function DoTheCheck(form){
  2.   var i = 0;
  3.   var j = form.elements['programs[]'].length;
  4.   for(i=0;i<j;i++){
  5.   if (form.elements['programs[i]'].value==''){
  6.     form.elements['programs[i]'].splice(form.elements['programs[i]'].value(i,1);
  7.   }
  8.   }
  9.   }
  10.  
  11.  
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't think you can use the splice method for the form elements array. It's for a normal array.

If you post the HTML, I'd have a better idea what you're trying to do. You may not even need this JavaScript code.

Hi - I'm not sure if I've found a bug with the "splice" function or if I just need better documentation. Splice doesn't work quite how O'Reilly describes it (Javascript, 4th edition, Jan 2002, section 9.2.6, pg 144). I'm using IE6. var a = new Array( 1,2,3,4,5 ); document.write( a.splice( 0 ) ); // returns "", should return "1,2,3,4,5"

Hi, I have had to invent a work-around to get past what looks like a JavaScript bug, the malfunctioning Perl-like JavaScript array functions including SPLICE() and UNSHIFT(). I have boiled it down to a very simple test case which can be cut-n-pasted into a .html file and viewed in a browser: ============================================================================

What should be the output of the following program? The SGI STL docs say that all iterators remain valid during a splice operation. The dinkumware library reference says that iterators to spliced elts. may be invalidated. I have one system (Linux gcc) which outputs: 0 3 and another (HP aCC) which outputs:

If I'm not completely mistaken, the only reason why std::list::size() may be (and usually is) a linear-time operation is because they want std::list::splice() to be a constant-time operation, and if you execute the latter, the size of the resulting lists cannot be known without explicitly counting the sizes of the new lists. I was thinking: What if size() was an O(n) operation only *after* a splice() operation has been performed (and...

MSDN says splice has the following arguments: arrayObj.splice(start, deleteCount, ]]]) Thus I can insert items into an array using splice. But how do I insert an entire array? For example: var arr1 = ; arr1 = "a"; arr2 = "d";

Hi all, I am a newbie and trying to use splice function to read data from text file. It seems the data doesn't have line breaks but only separated by spaces. All I know is that each row has specific byte size. I am wondering if there is any way to splice data if I know byte size of each row. I have tried by array indexing but that doesn't work very well (basically, it doesn't splice data uniformly). -Manish Below is the code and...
