unistake Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Hi all, got a simple problem for you I am trying to create an outcome by clicking on radio buttons, I cant seem to get the 'document.write' to work and display the text at the bottom of the radio buttons, with those radio buttons still showing. The code I have is: <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function calc (){ selection = document.getElementsByName("typeofbet"); for(i=0; i<selection.length; i++){ if(selection[i].checked == true){ var selected = selection[i].value; } } if(selected == "qualifier"){ qualifier(); }else{ if(selected == "freesr"){ sr(); }else{ if(selected == "freesnr"){ snr(); } } } } function qualifier (){ document.write('this is the qualifier!'); } function sr(){ document.write('this is the sr!'); } function snr(){ document.write('this is the snr!'); } </script> </head> <body> <form name="calcform"> <p> <input type="radio" name="typeofbet" value="qualifier" onClick="return calc();"> qual <input type="radio" name="typeofbet" value="freesr" onClick="return calc();"> sn <input type="radio" name="typeofbet" value="freesnr" onClick="return calc();"> snr </p> </form> </body> </html> Thanks for the heads up Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/169141-solved-simple-documentwrite-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikesta707 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 dont use document.write. it sucks. Instead make make a span or div tag, and use javascript to effect the innerHTML of the elemt. Something like <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function calc (){ text = document.getElementById("text"); selection = document.getElementsByName("typeofbet"); for(i=0; i<selection.length; i++){ if(selection[i].checked == true){ var selected = selection[i].value; } } if(selected == "qualifier"){ qualifier(); }else{ if(selected == "freesr"){ sr(); }else{ if(selected == "freesnr"){ snr(); } } } } function qualifier (){ //document.write('this is the qualifier!'); text.innerHTML = 'this is the qualifier!' } function sr(){ // document.write('this is the sr!'); text.innerHTML = 'this is the sr!' } function snr(){ // document.write('this is the snr!'); text.innerHTML = 'this is the snr!' } </script> </head> <body> <form name="calcform"> <p> <input type="radio" name="typeofbet" value="qualifier" onClick="return calc();"> qual <input type="radio" name="typeofbet" value="freesr" onClick="return calc();"> sn <input type="radio" name="typeofbet" value="freesnr" onClick="return calc();"> snr </p> <span id="text"></span> </form> </body> </html> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/169141-solved-simple-documentwrite-problem/#findComment-892400 Share on other sites More sharing options...
