ninedoors Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 I have a function that takes an input and writes that input to an html table cell. I have 18 cells that the user inputs a number to. What I want to is add the numbers the user inputs up and write it to the final cell as a total. z, y have been declared outside the function so they are global. Here's the function: function s (t){ var holes = [ "hole21","hole22","hole23","hole24","hole25","hole26","hole27","hole28","hole29","hole31","hole32","hole33","hole34","hole35","hole36","hole37","hole38","hole39" ]; var r = holes[z]; document.getElementById(r).innerHTML=t.innerHTML; z++; y += t.innerHTML; if(r == 'hole29') { document.getElementById('hole30').innerHTML=y; } } Where t is the user input(an integer), holes is the array of table cell ids where the user input values are being shown My first thought was to just have a variable that would take would be say var y and then have something like y =y+t; And have a running total, then when I reached the given cell that I wanted to put the total in (holes30) I could just write y to that cell. Does that sound right? I tried do that but I could get it to work any suggestions?

ninedoors Posted May 26, 2008 Author Share Posted May 26, 2008 Here's the working code in case any one is interested function s (t){ var holes = [ "hole21","hole22","hole23","hole24","hole25","hole26","hole27","hole28","hole29","hole31","hole32","hole33","hole34","hole35","hole36","hole37","hole38","hole39" ]; var r = holes[z]; document.getElementById(r).innerHTML=t.innerHTML; var scores = new Array(); z++; if(r == 'hole29') { ftotal = 0; for(var i=0;i<9;i++) { var u = holes[i]; var p = document.getElementById(u).innerHTML; ftotal+=Number(p); } document.getElementById("hole30").innerHTML=ftotal; } if(r == 'hole39') { btotal = 0; total = 0; for(var i=9;i<18;i++) { var u = holes[i]; var p = document.getElementById(u).innerHTML; btotal+=Number(p); } document.getElementById("hole40").innerHTML=btotal; total = ftotal + btotal; document.getElementById("hole41").innerHTML=total; } } Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/107301-solved-accessing-array-elements/#findComment-550305 Share on other sites More sharing options...
