Code works with 4 letter words, but not random word length

785 Contributor

I do not understand why this code does not work? It will show ????? for the word length, but will does not actually access the individual letters within the word list. I enter the vowels as guesses, and NONE of the vowels are said to be in the word. I'm trying to put the working code in a separate JS file, instead of having the silly thing on the same HTML page. This might allow me to incorporate user choosing which game to play within the same HTML page, if my other support issue gets resolved.
Thanks!

ps. The code appears to work if I have the JS on the same page as the HTML.

Well, code does NOT work even within the same HTML file. I recopied the original, into a new HTML file - EXACTLY! Tested it. Works. Then, I changed the wordlist to be 5 letters long "abcde", "abcde" etc. The code refused to work. I made absolutely certain that the wordlists was made exactly like the 4 letter word list. I double checked to be sure it was "abcde", "abcde") and NOT "abcde, "abcde') or some other error.

ORIGINAL Code (with wordlist edited down considerably)

SOLVED!!! Okay, so I KNOW that the code used CAPS letters unless you change one bit of the code in the HTML file to SMALL case letters. Once, I got the word lists letter to be the same size as the HTML file letters, the code once more worked. LOL

thus the best answer is my own. Get a better editor! lol

Future reuse of code

by: James Cameron | last post by:

Hi I'm developing a program and the client is worried about future reuse of the code. Say 5, 10, 15 years down the road. This will be a major factor in selecting the development language. Any comments on past experience, research articles, comments on the matter would be much appreciated. I suspect something like C would be the best based on comments I received from the VB news group. Thanks for the help in advance James Cameron

code review/comments please

by: djinni | last post by:

It's been a while since I've written anything in C, and I was hoping to get some feedback on the following code. As far as I can tell, the program works fine, but I'm not sure I'm cleaning all the memory up properly, and I think the "tokenize_my_string" function can probably be made better. This program prompts the user for a text sentence, then re-orders the words in a random fashion... ...

Length of words in a string.

by: MN | last post by:

Hello all - I'm really at wits end on this as I'm not having much success with locating a function or other options I have. I'm working on a message board for a website and I'm needing to check the length of the words that users put in. For example, when someone puts in "yesssssssssssss!", I put together a small function that omits all of the s's as this is wreaking havoc on the layout of tables within the site. But I don't have a...

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

by: Hystou | last post by:

Overview: 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,...
