This script is an example of countdown clock. You can set seconds and start countdown.


 

  Countdown Clock
 
  <script type="text/javascript">
  function convert(){
    var seconds = document.getElementById("inputted_seconds").value;
 
    if(isNaN(seconds)){

    }else{
        document.getElementById("inputted_seconds").setAttribute("disabled","disabled");

Automatically put words for autocompleting

Ruben Sargsyan — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 11:30:27 +0000

While I was looking through a site about migrate sharepoint, I saw a search field with autocompleting and the first idea I have is to develop a code that will automatically put those words for autocompleting that are more often happen in the texts.


function get_words($texts){
    if(!empty($texts)){
        $words = array();
        $words_count = 0;
 
        foreach($texts as $text){
            preg_match_all("/\w{2,}/i", $text, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER);
 
            foreach($matches as $word){
                $word_found = false;
 
                if(!empty($words)){
                    for($i=0; $i<count($words); $i++){
                        if($words[$i]["word"]==$word[0]){
                            $words[$i]["count"]++;
                            $word_found = true;
                            break;
                        }
                    }
                }
 
                if(!$word_found){
                    $words[$words_count]["word"] = $word[0];
                    $words[$words_count]["count"] = 1;
 
                    $words_count++;
                }else{
                    $word_found = false;
                }
            }
        }
 
        return $words;
    }else{
      return false;
    }
}
 
function sort_by_words_count($word1,$word2){
  $word1_count = $word1["count"];
  $word2_count = $word2["count"];
 
  if($word1_count<$word2_count){
    return 1;
  }elseif($word1_count==$word2_count){
    return 0;
  }else{
    return -1;
  }
}
 
$text1 = "If you would like to have your running line on your Wordpress blog, so this plugin is just for you! It gives you the possibility to show one of the posts from your chosen category by the running line. So download and enjoy!";
 
$text2 = "This plugin is used when there are words, words expressions or sentences to be explained in the posts or pages of your wordpress blog. This plugin will help the visitors to read the explanations of the words (words expressions,sentences) you need via tooltips.";
 
$text3 = "Any occasion to receive greetings? So, this plugin is just for you! This Widget plugin shows a greeting image which would be uploaded for the occasion and a pop up form for receiving the greetings. It is possible to show the greetings in any post or page.";
 
$text4 = "This plugin adds links after the posts for subscribing to the post author's posts feed via RSS. So if there are several authors in the blog, but a visitor wishes to subscribe just an author posts feed, this plugin gives that possibility to do it.";
 
$text5 = "This is a widget plugin which helps to display the visitors who left the most number of comments in the Wordpress blog.";
 
$texts = array($text1, $text2, $text3, $text4, $text4);
 
$all_words = get_words($texts);
 
usort($all_words, 'sort_by_words_count');
 
$autocompleting_words_count = 10; // Autocompleting words count
 
for($i=0; $i<$autocompleting_words_count; $i++){
    $autocompleting_words[$i] = '"'.$all_words[$i]["word"].'"';
}
 
$autocompleting_words = implode(",",$autocompleting_words);

Automatically set permalink custom structure after Wordpress installation

Ruben Sargsyan — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 16:28:23 +0000

For setting the permalink structure that you want to be set automatically after Wordpress installation, open the file schema.php from the directory /wp-admin/includes/ and set the value of permalink_structure of the array $options of the function populate_options that structure which you want to be set. Then open the file upgrade.php from the same directory and add $wp_rewrite->set_permalink_structure(get_option(“permalink_structure”)); just before $wp_rewrite->flush_rules(); in the function wp_install.

Move JavaScript codes from a file to an other file

Ruben Sargsyan — Wed, 26 May 2010 09:06:26 +0000

An example to move the JavaScript codes from a file to an other file:


function moveJavascriptCodes($fromFile,$toFile){
    $fileText = file_get_contents($fromFile);
 
    preg_match_all("#]*>(.*?)#si",$fileText,$javascriptCodes,PREG_SET_ORDER);
 
    $codes = array();
 
    foreach($javascriptCodes as $javascriptCode){
        $codes[] = $javascriptCode[1];
    }
 
    if(file_put_contents($toFile,implode("\n",$codes))===false){
        return false;
    }
 
    return true;
}
 
$fromFile = "totalCode.php"; //The file from which JavaScript code will be got
$toFile = "javascriptCode.js"; //The file into which JavaScript code will be set
 
moveJavascriptCodes($fromFile,$toFile);
?>

News slideshow effect by jQuery

Ruben Sargsyan — Sat, 15 May 2010 11:41:17 +0000

Recently I have found out a website of one software company that I do like a lot with its properly created structure and great effects.
Here is a feature of that website that I am pleased to introduce for anyone who would like to use it for yourself:

<html>
 
<head>
 
<style>
.news p{
    width: 800px;
    left: 310px;
    position: relative;
}

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.2.min.js">script>
<script>
 
var liItem = new Array();
 
var x = 0;
 
$(function(){
    $(".newsItem").each(function(){
        liItem.push($(this).html());
    });
 
    for(i=0; i<liItem.length; i++){
        liItem[i] = ""+liItem[i]+"
";
    }
});
 
function startSlideshow(){
    if(x==liItem.length){
        x = 0;
    }
    $(".news").empty();
    $(".news").append(liItem[x]);
    x++;
    $strip = $(".news p");
    $strip.animate(
        {
            left: 0
        },
        300,
        function(){
            $(this).animate(
                {
                    left: 0
                },
                5000,
                function(){
                    $(this).animate(

        }
    );
    $strip.hover(
        function(){
          $(this).stop();
          $(this).animate(
              {
                  opacity: 1
              },
              100
          )

Automatic activating plugins after Wordpress installation

Ruben Sargsyan — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 10:15:54 +0000

To activate the plugins that you want to be activated automatically after Wordpress installation, copy those plugins to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory, then open the file schema.php from the directory /wp-admin/includes/ and add the plugins main files names in the active_plugins array which is in the $options array of the function populate_options.

Example:
…
‘active_plugins’ => array(“explanatory-dictionary/explanatory-dictionary.php”,”most-commenting-visitors/most-commenting-visitors.php”,”greetings/greetings.php”,”running-line/running-line.php”,”subscribe-to-author-posts-feed/subscribe-to-author-posts-feed.php”),
…
