    Hey,
    sorry if this is in the wrong place 1st of all, I'm just wondering if someone could give me a javascript that takes in 2 numbers (both from text field boxes) and on the press of a submit button does the action (#1 * #2 / 675) and displays the result in another text field box.
    I tried looking around for similer ones which I could edit around, but I have no clue about jscript.

    Thanks a million
    - Tim

    try some thing like..
    [code]
    <script language="javascript">
    var number1 = prompt ('Enter the 1st number', ' ');
    var number2 = prompt ('Enter the 2nd number', ' ');

    var result = ((number1 * number2) / 675);
    document.write ("The result is" + result + "!!");
    </script>

    Grow up. Bet your parents don't understand you either.

    Anyhow here's your code, boy:
    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
    <!--
    	function foobar(theform) {
    		theform.Answer.value = (theform.Number1.value * theform.Number2.value) / 675;
    	}
    //-->
    </SCRIPT>
    
    <FORM NAME="whatever">
    	<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Number1">
    	<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Number2">
    	<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="Answer">
    	<INPUT TYPE="button" onclick="foobar(whatever);">
    </FORM>

    exiztone,

    Look it up. Work it out for yourself. Learn. People are going to help you here or anywhere else only if you give them the impression you're learning and not just looking for someone to do your work for you. No one likes freeloading Muppets.

    And the I H8 Ireland stuff doesn't help either. Why don't you walk down 5th Ave in NY with a plackard saying "9/11 - Not enough dead Yanks" and see how many people want to give you a hand?

    I'm sorry, I don't like arguing publically, but your comparison is just WRONG.
    I was born & raised in this country, I have never liked it.
    I have an oppinion of this place I really don't think it's fair of you to say I should take it back because you happen to like this country.

    As for "freeloading" wow... I'm terribly sorry... I had browsed the net looking for other calculators which I thought I might be able to edit the command of it... I wasn't able to so I remember here being a tech support forum, I had no idea you got flamed for asking something like this... but if that's the way it is I will try somewhere else.

    Your opinion is of little interest to me. My comment was directed towards your naïveté in publicly posting something like that and then getting all hurt when people don’t react to it well.

    Let’s get this straight: You browsed the net looking to pinch someone else’s code, couldn’t find anything so you come here to see if you could convince those here to write the code for you. The ‘tech support’ here is voluntary - I don’t see you shelling out your pocket money for our help. So you arrive here, looking for someone to write your code for you (with no interest in learning how to do so for yourself, that much is obvious), offending others with your adolescent opinions and then getting morally indignant when people prefer to flame rather than help you? Gee, I wonder why..? :rolleyes:

    Still, you’re not that bad; you remind me of when I was young and stupid. All I’m trying to say is: Learn to be diplomatic when you want something from people.

    That’s all. Now go do your own homework.
