The following is a function which returns the chainable version of a function: Here is an example of how to define a pseudo-class which uses this chaining method: Here is an example which shows that the chaining works as intended:
The following prototype function mimics the hashCode() function of java.lang.String in Java: Depending on the version of Java that you are running, what is returned from this function may not be the same thing that is returned in Java. On the other hand, this implementation is computationally equivalent to the Read more…
The following is a quick JavaScript function which will return the reverse of a string: The above function is a function that, once defined, will exist for every string. Here are some examples of how to use the above function: By the way, if you noticed the last two examples Read more…
The following is a quick JavaScript function which can determine if a string contains a substring: The above function is a function that, once defined, will exist for every string. The first parameter, which is the string to be found, is required. The second parameter, which is a boolean specifying Read more…
The following is a quick JavaScript function which can determine if a string starts with a substring: The above function is a function that, once defined, will exist for every string. The first parameter, which is the string to be found, is required. The second parameter, which is a boolean Read more…
The following is a quick JavaScript function which can determine if a string ends with a substring: The above function is a function that, once defined, will exist for every string. The first parameter, which is the string to be found, is required. The second parameter, which is a boolean Read more…
One of the things that many people try their best to do when deploying their JavaScript code to production, is use a minified version of the code. By that, I mean, remove the unnecessary white-space, extra symbols, and shorten the names of variables. If you don’t have much JavaScript, you Read more…
ECMAScript 5 has introduced the new Function.prototype.bind() function which not only gives you the ability to natively bind a primitive or object to a function and also curry data for the function. Unfortunately, up to this point, nobody has written an implementation of this function to make it work on Read more…
One of the nice prototype functions available in the Prototype JS library is Function.prototype.delay(). The reason this is a great function is the fact that it actually allows you to call a function after a certain amount of time with the specified parameters. The following is an example of how Read more…
Almost a month ago, I posted about creating a camel case function in VBScript. Now I think it is time to see a simple way to implement this function in JavaScript: Believe it or not, that is all the code you will need for the following to work: You will Read more…
