I’ve written 50 of these things? Half a hundred later and still going strong. Absolutely nothing can go wrong… go wrong… go wrong… Here’s the script and its effect once again: See it in Action Here’s the Code (It’s big. Get it all.) We jump to the bottom again to get a handle on […]

Das Tip…      The function part of this script is what takes the choice the user made and creates a hypertext link to it. That’s what we’re looking at this week.       Here’s the Script and its effect: –> Choose a Link Script Tip #1 Script Tip #2 Script Tip #3 function LinkUp() […]

Tip to my lou…      I received this “Proportional” script from Ann Evansfor posting on JavaGoodies. It was a great idea. You entered the height and width of an image you wanted to resize. Then, by entering a new height, the script figured the new width, keeping the same proportions the image original had.      I […]

Look… it’s a Tip! I’m running out of ways to say “tip”, that’s for sure. Okay, people, listen up! Today we start a new script. It allows the user to click on a guitar chord then have the chord formed for them. Yes, I know that the script isn’t overly useful unless you happen […]

Scripper…      You want a clock? We got a clock!!      I have loved this script since it first arrived at the old JavaGoodies site. It’s long, involved, has some code I don’t really think is required, but it gets the job done well.      At the moment I have the clock set to post Central Standard […]

Look… it’s a Tip! All right! We have our run of radio buttons seven high by six wide. Now, let’s look into how the chords are built into that bank of little radio dots.      Click a chord on the right and watch the dots provide the pattern. A A7 A9 A13 Am Am6 Am7 […]

Stipper… Here we go with a script that has been requested time and time again, a calculator. The script I’ll be working with this time around has a very basic, but clever format originally sent to me by Saries. He calls it a Rainbow Calculator, for obvious reasons. Take a look and then we’ll […]

Tip-a-roo…      I love it when we start a new Script Tip script. I’m usually ready to move on each time I finish one. So today we start a script that will tell us the number of days until January 1, 2000, the day the computers go haywire…maybe.      Here’s the effect you’ll get with this […]

Hi, Tipster… Okay, you were nice enough to go through the smaller browser detect script with me, now let’s hit a larger and much more involved browser detect script. Both scripts do the same thing, they look at the browser the user is running and send the user to a specific page. This larger script […]

La Tipa… Last week you got the rundown on how this guestbook script works and since there’s no good starting point for tearing this one apart, we’ll just start from the top down. First we grab the user’s name and e-mail address and stick them in the subject line of the FORM flag. Just in […]

You there, Tippy! We’re slowly getting to the bottom of this script. Now we’ll get into the history statement right at the end and wrap it up. Here’s the script so you can familiarize yourself again: function JemWebCONFIRM() {if (!confirm (“YOUR MESSAGE GOES HERE”)) history.go(-1);return ” “} If you’ve used any of […]

El Tipo… We’re starting again with a new and different script. The digital running clock had a couple of bugs in it so I’ve pulled it down and we’ll start fresh with a guestbook script. You’re going to like this one, too. As soon as I work the bugs out of the other script, we’ll […]
