"if else" not working

[stephenT]

Can anyone please advise what i am missing in my code? I want the displayed price to show as $k when under $999,999 and $mil when over $1 million. Example: $990000 should display as $990k (which it does) BUT $1,100,000 should display as $1.1mil, and the same with values under $1mil should show as $k not $0.9mil. Hope that makes sense.

 

 

$(function() {

 

$( "#slider-range" ).slider({

range: true,

min: 0,

max: 2000000,

values: [ 0, 2000000 ],

step: 10000,

slide: function( event, ui )

{

 

if("HousePrice_max" < 1000000)

 

$( "#HousePrice" ).val( "$" + ui.values[ 0 ]/1000 + "k - $" + ui.values[ 1 ]/1000 + "k" );

 

else

 

$( "#HousePrice" ).val( "$" + ui.values[ 0 ]/1000 + "k - $" + ui.values[ 1 ]/1000000 + "mil" );

 

}

I haven't even read your post, mostly because I couldn't be bothered considering you couldn't be bothered popsting it within the correct board.

 

This however:

 

if("HousePrice_max" < 1000000)

 

makes little sense. How exactly do you expect the string "HousePrice_max" to be less than the int 1000000

 

Ever heard the expression "like comparing apples and oranges" ?

WOW. I'm new to php, this is my first post, it might be my last as i didn't expect this type of hostility on here. I was under the impression this forum was to help people with php.

It is, but you posted a javascript question (I'm assuming in the PHP area).

 

Anyways, to elaborate on the last poster's comment:

 

if("HousePrice_max" < 1000000)

You are comparing a string (text) of "HousePrice_max" to a number. What are you trying to compare to?

The PHP Help board *is* for help with PHP questions. Unfortunately, your code is not PHP.

 

All i have done is move your question to the appropriate board and ask you a question.

Ok i have just realized it was a javascript function i was trying to modify.

The function is attached to a jQuery slider with min and max values of 0 & 2000000 and the prices are stored in MySQL database

So you are trying to check against the selected value? I'm not familiar with the plugin, but just looking at your code, I'd assume it's something like this:

 

if(ui.values[ 0 ] < 1000000)

[stephenT]

That's correct.  I have it working however it is showing as $0.99mil when the slider goes below $1mil, i want it to display as $990k NOT $0.99mil. The same with the left slider, it displays as $990k for example but does not change to $mil when it goes over $1mil, instead displays as $1100k for example instead of $1.1mil

[stephenT]

var HousePrice_min = $( "#slider-range" ).slider( "values", 0 );

var HousePrice_max = $( "#slider-range" ).slider( "values", 1 );

Don't worry, just worked it out myself.
