Shipping Calculator, What Am I Missing In This Code To Make It Work?
Hello I am pretty new to this and I am trying to make this shipping calculator code work. This is what I have so far.
Solution 1:
Change your onclick code to:
calculateShipping(document.getElementById('price').value);
Edit, try this code, it should work:
<!DOCTYPE htmlPUBLIC"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"ent"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><htmlxmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"xml:lang="en"lang="en"><head><title>Calculate Shipping</title><scripttype="text/javascript">/* <![CDATA[ */var price = 0;
var shipping = calculateShipping(price);
functioncalculateShipping(price){
var result = 0;
if (price <= 25){
result = 1.5;
}
else{
result = price * 10 / 100;
}
var total = result + (price - 0);
window.alert("Shipping is $" + result + ". Total is $" + total +".");
}
/* ]]> */</script></head><body><p>Purchase Price: $
<inputtype="text"name="price"id="price" /><inputtype="button"value="Calculate Shipping"onclick="calculateShipping(document.getElementById('price').value);" /></p></body></html>
Solution 2:
I think the best approach (without using any library, like JQuery) is the following:
<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title>Calculate Shipping</title><scripttype="text/javascript">window.addEventListener('load', function(){
var priceField = document.getElementById('price');
var calculateButton = document.getElementById('calculate');
var totalField = document.getElementById('total');
calculateButton.addEventListener('click', function(){
var price = parseInt(priceField.value);
var shipping = calculateShipping(price);
var total = price + shipping;
totalField.value = "Your total is $" + total + ".";
});
functioncalculateShipping(price){
return (price <= 25) ? 1.5 : price / 10;
}
});
</script></head><body><h1>Purchase Price:</h1><label>Price:</label><inputtype="text"id="price" /><buttonid="calculate">Calculate Shipping</button><label>Total:</label><inputtype="text"id="total"disabled="disabled" /></body></html>
here I introduce some good practices, like:
- Don't pollute the global namespace
- Avoid inline Javascript (binding your event listeners as HTML attributes)
- Avoid, if possible, the use of native message boxes (alert, confirm, prompt...), they're terribly intrusive, ugly and not customizable.
