I am trying to make a table that can make a +, x, H and in different colors and then on click it draws on the table. Could anyone help me out? I don't expect you to write the full code but if you could maybe provide some advice and/or example code I would totally appreciate it!
<!HTML>
<html>
<head>
<title>JScript</title>
<script language="javascript">
function Design()
{
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<table border="1px" cellpadding="30px">
<tr><td name="h"></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td name="h"></tr>
<tr><td></td><td></td><td name="h"></td><td></td><td></td></tr>
<tr><td></td><td></td><td name="h"></td><td></td><td></td></tr>
<tr><td></td><td></td><td name="h"></td><td></td><td></td></tr>
<tr><td name="h"></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td name="h"></td></tr>
</table>
Pattern Choice: <br>
<input type="radio" name="sign" value="plus"> Plus Sign <br>
<input type="radio" name="sign" value="X"> Letter X <br>
<input type="radio" name="sign" value="H"> Letter H <br><br>
Color Choice: <br>
<select name="color" size="5">
<option value="red">Red</option>
<option value="blue">Blue</option>
<option value="yellow">Yellow</option>
<option value="green">Green</option>
<option value="orange">Orange</option>
</select>
</div>
<br><br>
<input type="button" value="Color It" onclick="Design()">
<input type="reset" value="Clear">
</body>
</html>
I don't know if you can see but I the <td name="h"> I thought that would be the way to go to fill in each cell at least for H and then I was going to use multiple names if they overlapped if that's even possible?
I did this using javascript
<html>
<head>
function Design() {
var desgn;
if (document.getElementById('r1').checked) {
desgn = document.getElementById('r1').value;
}
if (document.getElementById('r2').checked) {
desgn = document.getElementById('r2').value;
}
if (document.getElementById('r3').checked) {
desgn = document.getElementById('r3').value;
}
console.log(desgn);
var e = document.getElementById("list");
var colr = e.options[e.selectedIndex].value;
var tabs = document.getElementById("tbl");
var rows = tabs.rows.length;
var trs = tabs.getElementsByTagName("tr")[0];
var tds = trs.cells
var colms = tds.length
var table = document.getElementById("tbl");
for (var i = 0, row; row = table.rows[i]; i++) {
for (var j = 0, col; col = row.cells[j]; j++) {
if (desgn == 'X') {
var y = rows - i - 1;
if (i == j || j == y) {
trs = tabs.getElementsByTagName("tr")[i];
trs.cells[j].style.backgroundColor = colr;
}
}
else if (desgn == 'plus') {
if (i == 2 || j == 2) {
trs = tabs.getElementsByTagName("tr")[i];
trs.cells[j].style.backgroundColor = colr;
}
}
else if (desgn == "H") {
if (j == 1 || j == 3 || i == 2 && j == 2) {
trs = tabs.getElementsByTagName("tr")[i];
trs.cells[j].style.backgroundColor = colr;
}
}
}
}
}
