'Showing an image based on a number range in Javascript
I am trying to create a javascript program that prompts the user for a number. If a user puts in a number that is less then 21, an image of soda will show. If the number is 21 or greater, the image is beer. There is an image of a bar that is shown when the page loads. Negatives and non-numbers are not allowed in the code. I have worked on this code for over a couple of days and the code does run. The only problem I have with it is that it will say that any input is an invalid entry. I have looked around for any solutions and I'm not sure what to do. I am new to javascript and any help would be appreciated.
Below is the javascript I am using:
function start()
{
let button1 = document.getElementById("button1");
button1.onclick = toggleContent;
}
function toggleContent()
{
let number = document.getElementById('number');
let liquid = document.getElementById('Bar');
if parseInt(number <= 20)
{
liquid.src = 'assets/Soda.png';
liquid.alt = 'Spicy water';
}
else if (number >= 21)
{
liquid.src = 'assets/Beer.png';
liquid.alt = 'Angry Juice';
}
else if (isNaN(number) || number < 0)
{
alert("Invalid Entry. Enter a Number.")
}
}
window.onload = start;
Here is the HTML code that goes with it:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>ID Check?</title>
<script src="scripts/pt2script.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<img id="Bar" src="assets/barimage.png" alt="Image of a Bar Sign.">
<p>Enter a number into the text box.</p>
<input type="text" id="number" value="Enter a number...">
<button onclick="toggleContent()" id="button1">Submit</button>
</body>
</html>

You are attempting to convert a boolean to an integer. This will not work sense (num >= 20) or whatever will evaluate to true or false, and not a number (NaN). You can convert the value to a number before trying to do a logical comparison. I'd do something such as:
$('.btn').on('click', function() {
let val = $('#num').val();
val = parseInt(val);
if(val >= 21) {
$('img').attr('src', '/path-to-soda');
}
else {
$('img').attr('src', '/other-path');
}
});
As soon as an event triggers your number comparison I would instantly convert it to a number (i'm assuming you are using a number input which will do this for you), and then perform the logical operation. If you're using a number input (which again, i'm just assuming), you won't even need to convert the value to a number. That's only necessary if you're using a text input or something along those lines.

You should use PreferenceFragmentCompat
, if using androidx
libraries
public class SettingsFragment extends PreferenceFragmentCompat {
@Override
public void onCreatePreferences(Bundle savedInstanceState, String rootKey) {
setPreferencesFromResource(R.xml.preferences, rootKey);
}
}
and a parent Fragment
is not required if it's only a single screen, instead use the Preference Fragment directly.
