Creating The Interface

  1. <!DOCTYPE html>
  2. <html lang="en">
  3. 	<head>
  4. 		<meta charset="UTF-8" name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
  5. 		<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap.css"/>
  6. 	</head>
  7. <body>
  8. 	<nav class="navbar navbar-default">
  9. 		<div class="container-fluid">
  10. 			<a class="navbar-brand" href="https://sourcecodester.com">Sourcecodester</a>
  11. 		</div>
  12. 	</nav>
  13. 	<div class="col-md-3"></div>
  14. 	<div class="col-md-6 well">
  15. 		<h3 class="text-primary">How to Generate a Random Serial Code</h3>
  16. 		<hr style="border-top:1px dotted #ccc;"/>
  17. 		<div class="col-md-6">
  18. 			<div class="form-group">
  19. 				<label>Serial 1</label>
  20. 				<input type="text" class="form-control" id="serial1" readonly="readonly"/>
  21. 				<br />
  22. 				<label>Serial 2</label>
  23. 				<input type="text" class="form-control" id="serial2" readonly="readonly"/>
  24. 				<br />
  25. 				<label>Serial 3</label>
  26. 				<input type="text" class="form-control" id="serial3" readonly="readonly"/>
  27. 				<br />
  28. 				<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" onclick="generateSerial();">Generate</button>
  29. 			</div>
  30. 		</div>
  31. 	</div>
  32. <script src="script.js"></script>	
  33. </body>	
  34. </html>

Creating JavaScript Function

This is where the main function of the application is. This code will generate a random serial code when the button is clicked. To do this just copy and write these block of codes inside the text editor and save it as script.js. 
  1. function generateSerial(){
  2. 	let n=7;
  3. 	let number = Math.floor(Math.random()*n)-1;
  4.  
  5. 	switch(number){
  6. 		case 0:
  7. 			document.getElementById('serial1').value="63V92-W6D11-SI1HP-ZMYPR-91ZV8";
  8. 			document.getElementById('serial2').value="6M1IM-JRT4I-JQXTE-O1FTP-H3AA9";
  9. 			document.getElementById('serial3').value="LT5FU-LS85P-QDRV0-TFLLK-O48DY";
  10. 			break;
  11. 		case 1:
  12. 			document.getElementById('serial1').value="C2X2N-WW79B-5NXSH-56K47-HO3C3";
  13. 			document.getElementById('serial2').value="UCSRB-YA03L-3B7JH-XCTOL-T5FUL";
  14. 			document.getElementById('serial3').value="77ILN-HY93S-GIWGJ-SQEN5-5OU2M";
  15. 			break;
  16. 		case 2:
  17. 			document.getElementById('serial1').value="S85PQ-DRV0T-FLLKO-48DY7-7ILNH";
  18. 			document.getElementById('serial2').value="Y93SG-IWGJS-QEN55-OU2M0-L2EWE";
  19. 			document.getElementById('serial3').value="0L2EW-EMIVJ-ZNVZW-4GQWX-3KG02";
  20. 			break;
  21. 		case 3:
  22. 			document.getElementById('serial1').value="MIVJZ-NVZW4-GQWX3-KG02O-T6C4Q";
  23. 			document.getElementById('serial2').value="NNMQF-KP0JI-TMOJ0-K54RJ-YRLU1";
  24. 			document.getElementById('serial3').value="OT6C4-QNNMQ-FKP0J-ITMOJ-0K54R";
  25. 			break;
  26. 		case 4:
  27. 			document.getElementById('serial1').value="PPGGZ-5EXBX-DQYQO-KWUAZ-6A8GS";
  28. 			document.getElementById('serial2').value="S78FV-I2D04-HNG2Y-ZX1RM-RCUKV";
  29. 			document.getElementById('serial3').value="JYRLU-1PPGG-Z5EXB-XDQYQ-OKWUA";
  30. 			break;
  31. 		case 5:
  32. 			document.getElementById('serial1').value="Y0UBV-H63V9-2W6D1-1SI1H-PZMYP";
  33. 			document.getElementById('serial2').value="R91ZV-86M1I-MJRT4-IJQXT-EO1FT";
  34. 			document.getElementById('serial3').value="Z6A8G-SS78F-VI2D0-4HNG2-YZX1R";
  35. 			break;
  36. 		case 6:
  37. 			document.getElementById('serial1').value="PH3AA-9C2X2-NWW79-B5NXS-H56K4";
  38. 			document.getElementById('serial2').value="7HO3C-3UCSR-BYA03-L3B7J-HXCTO";
  39. 			document.getElementById('serial3').value="MRCUK-VY0UB-VH63V-92W6D-11SI1";
  40. 			break;	
  41. 	}
  42. }

In the code above we will just create a method called generateSerial(). This function will generate a random serial code for you. In this code we first set the number of case we will use to get a random result. Then we use this variable as the switch parameter to triggers a certain cases and display your serial code in the html page.
