As part of an assignment I need to create some functions but I’m having trouble getting it right
I’m not sure how to get the function buyshares working – I’m confused with the syntax
for example
ONCLICK = “buyShares(0,document.trading.ssBuy.value)” >
I need to write a function to get the new value input (above) added to the shareholding value.
code below
<html>
<head> SHARE TRADING SYSTEM
<title>q3 </title>
<script language=”JavaScript” >
var companies = [‘SS’,’MA’,’RB’,’PC’];
var sharePrices = [25.44,83.33,88.89,24.44];
var shareHoldings = [104,23745,12945,84000];
function refreshHoldings()
{
document.holdings.ssHold.value = shareHoldings[0];
document.holdings.mdHold.value = shareHoldings[1];
document.holdings.rbHold.value = shareHoldings[2];
document.holdings.pcHold.value = shareHoldings[3];
}
;
function buyShares()
{
};
function sellShares()
{
};
function alert1()
{
window.alert(“You cannot purchase more than 100,000 shares”)
};
function alert2()
{
window.alert(“You do not have enough shares to sell”)
};
</script>
</head>
