[Mgkeeper]

I have attached a file with a quiz script i want you js programmers to look over. When i run it, and try to answer a question, it give me a script error on line 451 character 1. Can you tell me whats wrong??

[Gordo]

No file attached.

[Mgkeeper]

lmao, my bad.......

you've got the click() function and succeeding functions commented.
whatever editor you are using, turn the word wrap off and you will see the comment beginning with

// Message for the alert box...

I'm pretty sure the entire problem was a formatting error... I downloaded your text file and saved it as an html file, which gave me errors. However, if instead of saving it as an html file, I simply changed the extension to .html, it worked fine. It also worked fine when I copy & pasted the entire text into an html editor and saved it. I think the problem is that notepad removes the linebreaks when you try using it to save it as an html file, which causes problems.

put im using php, so it needs to be text

[Mgkeeper]

oh no, i attached the working file. Heres the bad file

[HappyDude]

What are you using to write your html/javascript files? Your text editor seems to remove all of your line breaks, which is causing the problem.

[Mr J]

Sorted .... I think

[Mgkeeper]

yay, it worked. Thanks alot Mr. J!!! Lol, can i ask another favor, can you fix this one too? Ill never ask again, its just that i already finished the q's on this 1, and i dont wanna have to type them in again........btw, how did you fix the prob??

[Mgkeeper]

here's the file

[Mr J]

Theres seems to be a mystery as to how it has been saved, to disregard the formatting .........strange ...... as they say


;)

[HappyDude]

I think that what Mr J did was press ENTER and add in line breaks in the necessary spots. Whatever you're using as a text or html editor isn't saving the line breaks, which is causing the problems.

hey thanks alot guys for your help. I used notepad for it. There must've been an error, because it always worked good with js before...........

Notepad stinks... try using EditPad Lite (free) from www.jgsoft.com or something along those lines... I have about 12 text editors, and I'm still evaluating most of them, but I like editpad the best so far for plain text editing and search/replace...

[Mgkeeper]

well, i mean i dont use notepad for all my stuff. Its just to usually change a little code in an already finished script, ya know??

[chrismiceli]

in my opinion the best txt editor for windows is metapad, do a search on google, it is like notepad on Crack, lol :)

[Mgkeeper]

ok, ill do that, and thanks for the help everyone!!!!

:thumbsup: :) :D :p
