In this tutorial, I am going to teach you how to make a byte calculator using javascript. Just download the source code below and follow the instructions.

Directions

First we will write our html code.

<form name="bandwidth" method="post">
  <p><input type="text" name="original" size="20" value=1024> <select size="1" name="units">
    <option value="Bytes">Bytes</option>
    <option value="Kb">Kb</option>
    <option value="Mb">Mb</option>
    <option value="Gb">Gb</option>
  </select> <input type="button" value="Calculate" name="B1" onClick="calculate()"></p>
</form>

This will be our javacsript code.

<script>
 
var bytevalue=0
function calculate(){
var invalue=document.bandwidth.original.value
var selectunit=document.bandwidth.units.options[document.bandwidth.units.selectedIndex].value
if (selectunit=="Bytes")
bytevalue=invalue
else if (selectunit=="Kb")
bytevalue=invalue*1024
else if (selectunit=="Mb")
bytevalue=invalue*1024*1024
else if (selectunit=="Gb")
bytevalue=invalue*1024*1024*1024
 
alert (invalue+" "+selectunit+" is equal to:\n\n- "+bytevalue+" Bytes\n- "+Math.round(bytevalue/1024)+" Kb\n- "+Math.round(bytevalue/1024/1024)+" Mb\n- "+Math.round(bytevalue/1024/1024/1024)+" Gb\n")
}
 
</script>
