Thank you for the answer i asked before. it is great. i have the same problem with url. just look at the code below.

// open a hypertext link with javascript: scheme to call display function
document.write('')

// print transparent image (use any height and width)
document.write('')

// close link tag
document.write('')

in href link why they didnt take the url. what is the meaning of that code "javascript:display(\' '+(red+green+blue)+'\')" why they take like that? can u expaline it clearly.

regards

If you have the same problem you should ask in the same context, or at least reference the previous questions/answers.

Remember, we are not sitting at the same desk as you, we don't see the same thing you do, so you can't asked a question without some frame of reference or giving a complete description of the problem.

I get the feeling that you have taken someone else's code and are working through it step by step trying to figure out what is happening. I would suggest you get a good Javscript book or online tutorial, and get comfortable with the language before addressing some more complex issues.

I think that may or may not be the case; I have learned lots of useful things by taking someone else's code and working through it. However, I usually start by studying the basics of the language in question.

Assuming url contains something like "dir/subdir/filename" then you will get the following:

openImage = <IMG SRC="filenamedg
closeImage = .gif" HEIGHT=21 WIDTH=16>

// so putting them together will create the string 

<IMG SRC="filenamedg.gif" HEIGHT=21 WIDTH=16>

var openImage = "<IMG SRC=\"" + getPath(location.href) + "dg"
var closeImage = ".gif\" HEIGHT=21 WIDTH=16>"

function getPath(url)
{
lastSlash = url.lastIndexOf("/")
return url.substring(0, lastSlash + 1)
}

The code uses location.href, so I think it's looking for a file name dg.gif in the same folder as the web-page being referenced.

You are right of course, I misread the getPath() function.

Hi
Thank you for your answer that i last time i asked. Now i want the phone number validation in javascript. How can we validate a phone number. if i give a invalid phone number it gives an error mesage. eg: 000000000

In fact you were shown some Google links; perhaps you could learn to do the same for yourself now you know how simple it is.

Thirsty people standing in a stream shouldn't need to be told to drink. Even if they stumble they will drink.

Or as we say "You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make it drink". However, one of the main qualities necessary to be a programmer (or anything else) is the ability to do one's own research. The sooner some of the questioners here learn that (hard) lesson, the better they will become. Merely posting questions asking others to do the work for them means they will not learn anything of much use, and will certainly not go very far in life.
