Solved What's wrong with this JavaScript?

Post by VelvetMoon Thu 19 Jan - 23:13

Hello,

Was sorting out my random banner scroll, added this new Javascript, but it won't work with the scroll every 3 seconds.

Code:

});

        $(function() {
        var a = ["http://i42.tinypic.com/2ujqqyv.png", "http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/8762/32835484.png", "http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/1261/72655719.jpg", "http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/1759/40100640.jpg",  "http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/2205/32895956.png", "http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/9394/12988506.png", "http://i42.tinypic.com/2ujqqyv.png"],
        b=function(){$("#pun-logo img,#i_logo,#logo img").attr("src",a[Math.floor(Math.random()*a.length)])};b();setInterval(b,3*1000);
        });

And is there any way to make the banners scroll in a order?

Try replace that with:
Code:
 $(function() {
        var a = ["http://i42.tinypic.com/2ujqqyv.png",
"http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/8762/32835484.png",
"http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/1261/72655719.jpg",
"http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/1759/40100640.jpg", 
"http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/2205/32895956.png",
"http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/9394/12988506.png",
"http://i42.tinypic.com/2ujqqyv.png"];
        b=function(){$("#pun-logo img,#i_logo,#logo img").attr("src",a[Math.floor(Math.random()*a.length)])};b();setInterval(b,3*1000);
        });

If your not wanting it to be in a random order, and instead cycle through a set of images, then its a very easy piece of Javascript to write.

Judging by the script your using, your using punbb, and want the logo to cycle through those images every three second.
So i'll brb in a few mins and edit this post with a much better script.

Something like this would work for all board:

Code:

var images=[];
images[0]="http://i42.tinypic.com/2ujqqyv.png";
images[1]="http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/8762/32835484.png";
images[2]="http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/1261/72655719.jpg";
images[3]="http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/1759/40100640.jpg";
images[4]="http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/2205/32895956.png";
images[5]="http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/9394/12988506.png";
images[6]="http://i42.tinypic.com/2ujqqyv.png";

var curnum=0;
function slideShow() {
var elem=document.getElementById('pun-logo').firstChild;
elem.src=images[curnum];
curnum=curnum+1;
if (curnum==images.length){ curnum=0 }
setTimeout("slideShow();",3000);
}

All that needs changing is the value of 'elem' for each board. And the function will need called on to start it off.

Thanks, I've entered the code in, but what do I need to do with 'elem' exactly?

'elem' will simply need changing to match the img element of the main forum logo. It can be used for all boards.

This bit goes into Javascript Management:
Code:

       
        var images=[];
        images[0]="http://i42.tinypic.com/2ujqqyv.png";
        images[1]="http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/8762/32835484.png";
        images[2]="http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/1261/72655719.jpg";
        images[3]="http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/1759/40100640.jpg";
        images[4]="http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/2205/32895956.png";
        images[5]="http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/9394/12988506.png";
        images[6]="http://i42.tinypic.com/2ujqqyv.png";
       
        var curnum=0;
        function slideShow() {
        var elem=document.getElementById('pun-logo').firstChild;
        elem.src=images[curnum];
        curnum=curnum+1;
        if (curnum==images.length){ curnum=0 }
        setTimeout("slideShow();",3000);
        }
Its obvious where to add your image URLs.

For punBB leave it as it is.
For phpbb3:

swap this line:
Code:

var elem=document.getElementById('pun-logo').firstChild;

For this:
Code:

var elem=document.getElementById('logo').firstChild;

The script will need to be started by calling the function.
You can do that by putting this:
Code:
<script>slideShow();</script>
Into an announcement, or widget.

Sorry. -.-

And my current code is now:

Code:
var images=[];
        images[0]="http://i42.tinypic.com/2ujqqyv.png";
        images[1]="http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/3789/37295971.png";
        images[2]="http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/1261/72655719.png";
        images[3]="http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/1759/40100640.png";
        images[4]="http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/2205/32895956.png";
        images[5]="http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/9394/12988506.png";
        images[6]="http://i42.tinypic.com/2ujqqyv.png";
        images[7]="http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/3917/58039496.png";
        images[8]="http://i42.tinypic.com/2ujqqyv.png";
        images[9]="http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/8174/89132615.png";
        images[10]="http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/3915/70701673.png"
     

        var curnum=0;
        function slideShow() {
        var png=document.getElementById('logo').firstChild;
        png.src=images[curnum];
        curnum=curnum+1;
        if (curnum==images.length){ curnum=0 }
        setTimeout("slideShow();",3000);
        }

<script>slideShow();</script>

But the pause between waiting for a new banner to scroll on the page is annoying (i.e one banner comes on, goes off, ten seconds later another one comes on, etc).
And it is only showing the first three banners. Have I missed something?

Is there any way I can stop the gap between the loading banners? And what about the banners?

The pause is due to the page having to load a new image each time.
If you don't want that, then the images will have to be loaded on your page somewhere, which will slow down the overall loading of the forum due to having to load so many big images on page load.
