Scripting Add-Ons

19 years ago

I have an idea to add the following things to scripting:

Some form of the javascript method of document.write("Some words "+%VA+" Some more words)

Some form of the javascript method of window.alert("This is an alert")

Some form of the javascript method of window.confirm("Are you sure")

Some form of the javascript method of window.prompt("Enter a number")

It'd be very useful. Some more useful things would be.

max(%VAR1,%VAR2) - Checks for higher number
min(%VAR1,%VAR2 - Checks for lower number
pow(%VAR1, #) - Gets power of number
sqrt(%VAR1) - Finds Square Root of number in positive number.

Please think about these. They'd be very useful.

I also want to say some things about types of variables (such as allowing float) but that would take to long.

You don't write much in your posts. For 3 words, you should be able to have perfect grammar (ia?)

Anyways, you want to come up with instances those would be useful?

havac, i thought there was a rule of correcting spelling and grammar, that its not allowed! anyways, its called a typo! the document.write can be said as this

$PAGETEXT := $PAGETEXT + "this is the stuff you want to write"

and if your intention is to have it in a link script, its not possible, what you can do is have it when the link script is activated, the follwoing page gets altered based on a variable, simple...

I'd at least like to have some form of Alert. The others were just others to think about. We really need a page to learn about the code here.

*Mabey I'll make one*

I'm not a fan of pop-up messages -- all three of these are pop-up Javascript dialogs.

Note that TEXT VARIABLES (which i'm thinking about more and more) will allow user to input text.

Will consider the MAX, MIN, POW, SQRT ...
