Created November 26, 2014 17:57

Animate a form: drops into view from the top of the page when 'add' button is clicked. When 'save' is clicked, it animates up and out of view again. No extra JS library needed.

	function ShowAssertiveForm(){
	$('.assertiveFormSlider').animate({
	top: '400px'
	}, 600);
	}

	function HideAssertiveForm(){
	$('.assertiveFormSlider').animate({

dacur / password.js

Last active August 29, 2015 14:13

Password validation using regular expressions. Returns an error message based on what is missing/wrong with the user's password (or returns "ok"). Password must contain at least one letter and one number, must be between 6 and 50 characters in length, and may contain certain special characters (such as !, #, &, etc.).

	function ValidatePassword(str){

	if (str.length < 6) {
	return("Password is too short. Must be at least 6 characters.");
	} else if (str.length > 50) {
	return("Password is too long. Must be no more than 50 characers.");
	} else if (str.search(/\d/) == -1) {
	return("Password must contain at least one number.");
	} else if (str.search(/[a-zA-Z]/) == -1) {
	return("Password must contain at least one letter.");

dacur / pushArray.js

Created February 3, 2015 15:14

Loop through a set of checkboxes. If checked, push into an array.

	var inputID = "";
	$('#howDidIFeelCheckboxes').find('input').each(function(){
	if($(this).is(':checked')){
	inputID = $(this).attr('id');
	// alert(id);
	_howDidIFeelPopup.push(inputID);
	}
	});

dacur / guid.js

Created February 5, 2015 21:36

Create a unique GUID. I sometimes use these when I need a unique value; for instance, when I need to add a unique ID to a DIV.

	function CreateGuid() {
	function _p8(s) {
	var p = (Math.random().toString(16) + "000000000").substr(2, 8);
	return s ? "-" + p.substr(0, 4) + "-" + p.substr(4, 4) : p;
	}
	return _p8() + _p8(true) + _p8(true) + _p8();
	}

	// to create a GUID, just call it like this:
	// var id = CreateGuid();

dacur / countItems.js

Created February 9, 2015 17:03

Every time a filter is applied/clicked, check to see if any items are displayed on the page. If not, display the message "Your search did not return any results. Please try again.". The message is hidden by default. The searches are fired on the click of a dropdown item. This function is called from each search function.

	function DoesFilterReturnZeroItems(){
	var hiddenItems = 0;
	var allItems = 0;
	$('#closetItems').find('.closetWrapper').each(function(){
	if($(this).hasClass('displaynone')){
	hiddenItems++;
	}
	allItems++;
	});
	if(allItems==hiddenItems){

dacur / checkboxes.js

Created February 20, 2015 20:07

Checking if 'fancy' checkboxes are checked, and reseting them to unchecked.

	$('#howDidIFeelCheckboxes').find('input').each(function(){
	if($(this).is(':checked')){
	$(this).attr('checked', false);
	}
	});
