data validation



I am writing a loan calculate with data validation. My maximum loan amount is 1,000,000 and I am using the method below to validate. When I enter 1,000,000 into the program it comes back with my error method. I thought (d >= max) would allow me to go up to and including my max. Can anyone see a problem with this method or is it possible I should be looking elsewhere in my code for a problem.





Any help is appreciated.







public static double getDoubleWithinRange(Scanner sc, String prompt, double min, double max)

{

double d = 0.0;

boolean isValid = false;

while (isValid == false)

{



d = getDouble (sc, prompt);

if (d <= min)

{

System.out.println(

"Error! Number must be greater than " + min + "." );

}

else if (d >= max)

{

System.out.println("Error! Number must be less than " + max + "." );

}



else

isValid = true;

}

return d;







//Get input from user System.out.println("DATA ENTRY"); double loanAmount = getDoubleWithinRange (sc, "Enter loan amount: ",0, 1000000); double interestRate = getDoubleWithinRange (sc, "Enter yearly interest rate: " , 0, 20); int years = getIntWithinRange (sc, "Enter number of years: ",0,100);

  1. you are saying if the amount is greater than or equal to one million cause an error. you want to say if it is greater than show an error

  2. Use else if (d>max), since you want up to 1,000,000 (and 1,000,000 can be included).

div not scrolling properly with slimScroll plugin

I am using the slimScroll plugin for jQuery by Piotr Rochala Which is a great plugin for nice scrollbars on most browsers but I am stuck because I am using it for a chat box and whenever the user appends new text to the boxit does scroll using the .scrollTop() method however the plugin's scrollbar doesnt scroll with it and when the user wants to look though the chat history it will start scrolling from near the top. I have made a quick demo of my situation http://jsfiddle.net/DY9CT/2/ Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Why does this javascript based printing cause Safari to refresh the page?

The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome. In the ex
