By User


How do you calculate the number of input boxes with no value in a table row using jquery?



example: 





<table id="table1">

<tr class="data" id="row5">

<td><input type="text" value="20%" /></td>

<td><input type="text" value="10%" /></td>

<td><input type="text" value="" /></td>

<td><input type="text" /></td>

</tr>

<table>


I'm looking for answer = 2

    Even that the OP claimed the answer as correct and working, this comes from the api doc:


    Some other elements, on the other hand, are empty (i.e. have no children) by definition: input, img, br, and hr, for example.


    So actually, it should be impossible to do it with the :empty selector.

    $('input:empty').length


    or to be more specific:

    $('#table1').find('input:empty').length


    even more specific:

    $('#table1').find('input[type=text]:empty').length

    You can do like:

    alert($('#table1 input:text[value == ""]').length);

    $('tr :text[value=""]').length


    or

    $('#table1 tr').each(function() { alert($(this).find(':text[value=""]').length) });


    quick demo.

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

By User
I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

By User
Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
