This is probably has a simple answer but I have been working on this for hours without being able to figure it out. I have the following function that retrieves a value ‘spot’ from input field ‘myInput’ and calculates a value ‘tmpspot’.<\/p>\n
For this example I am entering the number ’23’ in the field “myInput” (type=”number”). When I pass ’23’ to the function as shown below the function properly returns ’44’. However, when I comment out the line “tmpspot = tmpspot – (0 – spot) ;” and instead use the previous line “tmpspot = tmpspot + spot ;”, the function returns ‘2123’, as though it concatenated the two numbers instead of adding them together.<\/p>\n
What am I missing?<\/p>\n
function NextSpot() {
\n var spot = document.getElementById(“myInput”).value;
\n var tmpspot = spot % 2 ;
\n tmpspot = (tmpspot – (0 – spot)) – 1 ;
\n tmpspot = 65 – spot ;
\n tmpspot = tmpspot \/ 2 ;
\n tmpspot = parseInt(tmpspot);
\n\/\/ tmpspot = tmpspot + spot ;
\n tmpspot = tmpspot – (0 – spot) ;
\n document.getElementById(“demo”).innerHTML = tmpspot ;
\n return true ;
\n}<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-10196677","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/10196677","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/10196677\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10196677"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
