Cross Stitch Calculator

1. Introduction and Sample

A useful addition to any web site dealing with cross stitching is a calculator to help people work out how big a given pattern will be when that pattern is actually stitched up. The easiest way to add a calculator to a web site is of course using Javascript and it is even easier when someone else has written the javascript for you.

Here is a simple cross stitch calculator that I have written that can be easily customized and added to any site.

This script actually comes in three parts - the HTML to define the form, the Javascript to perform the calculations, and a few stylesheet commands to get it looking the way that you want.

The first step in adding this calculator to your site is to get the necessary HTML.
