This is a snippet

This is a function that will allow you to create an element and assign attributes without having to go through lines and lines of coding!



function create(x, y) {
    if(x.constructor == String){
        x = document.createElement(x);
    }
    for(var a in y) {
        if(y[a].constructor == Object) {
            this.create(x[a], y[a]);
            continue;
        }
        x[a] = y[a];
    }
    return x;
};

Example of usage:
Creating a td
create('td',{colSpan: "2", vAlign: "top"});
That has Colspan of 2 and valign top.

create('div',{style: {backgroundColor: "#FF0000"}, align: "center"});

You get the idea!

I get the Idea however I would Really like to know Where to Put it at? Header,footer,Global or Main?

Thanks

It's a 'snippet' really that a coder would use in their codes!

Code:

Select All

 

 function createElement(a, b) {
      if(a.constructor == String)
            a = document.createElement(a);
      for(var x in b) {
            if(b[x].constructor == Object) {
                  createElement(a[x], b[x]);
                  continue;
            }
            a[x] = b[x];
      }
      return a;
}

 function createElement(a, b) { {BR}      if(a.constructor == String) {BR}            a = document.createElement(a); {BR}      for(var x in b) { {BR}            if(b[x].constructor == Object) { {BR}                  createElement(a[x], b[x]); {BR}                  continue; {BR}            } {BR}            a[x] = b[x]; {BR}      } {BR}      return a; {BR}}

This code is exactly the same as that, except a few changed variable names. Rip?

So someone's not allowed to read a code - and then recode it?

*sigh* if that's what someone isn't allowed to do!

 Copying a code and changing a few variable names is not taking inspiration from something, its stealing it.
