help me understand a variable setting
var fmt = document.documentElement.clientWidth;
var开发者_JAVA百科 cls = (fmt<=240)?'pda_ver':(fmt>240&&fmt<=320)?'pda_hor':(fmt>320&&fmt<=640)?'screen_ultralow':(fmt>640&&fmt<=800)?'screen_low':(fmt>800&&fmt<=1024)?'screen_med':(fmt>1024&&fmt<=1280)?'screen_high':'screen_wide';
can someone tell me what this does (just the part where the variable is set with a value. I do not understand... what are the ?
, :
have for a role here)? i have never seen a variable declared like that. Is this a conditional variable setting? if yes how does it work ?
working example
This is a horrible example of abuse of the ternary operator.
Using a switch statement would look much nicer.
This construction is somewhat common in languages:
statement3 ? statement2 : statement1
It is used to inline a conditional, and it reads:
if (statement3) {
statement2;
} else {
statement1;
}
It's a shorthand of:
var cls;
if (fmt <= 240) {
cls = 'pda_ver';
} else {
if (fmt > 240 && fmt <= 320) {
cls = 'pda_hor';
} else {
....
and so on
