Chromium Bookmarklet (insert Text At Cursor)?

Apr 4, 2011

I'm not very well versed in javascript. I'm trying to make a bookmarklet that when I click it will either append text to what I've already written or insert the predefined text at the cursor's position in a textarea. Also the browser I'm trying to do this on is Chromium.

Here's what I have:javascript:void((function(){document.getElementsByTagName('textarea')[0].value='ಠ_ಠ'})())

but this of course changes the entire value of the text field to: ಠ_ಠ ...rather than appending or inserting at the cursor position. I'm guessing append would be the simplest, though cursor position would be most efficient.

Adding Text To Textarea - Create An Additional Button That Will Insert Some Text - Certain Html Tags

Mar 10, 2010

I am creating a small CMS module for a client. I created a little form and when they click Submit, it goes straight out into an include (.inc) file, which is connected to the web page to be displayed.

The trouble I am having is that I'd like to create an additional button that will insert some text (certain html tags to make their life easier, etc) - I got it to work, actually. The script executes and the text is inserted - but once the script runs and the page refreshes (or whatever it does), the text then disappears. The only way I can seem to get it to stay put is when I use "onmouseup" instead of "onclick" - which means that every time the user accidentally mouses over the thing, it inserts the text.

JQuery :: Attr Doesn't Work In IE6 And Chromium

Aug 11, 2009

<script type="text/javascript">
$("#sitemap a:eq(1)").attr("onclick","$('#sitemap a:eq(2)').text('');
sch('brands', '<?echo $data[0]["brand"]."')";?>").text(" / <?echo $data
[0]["brand"];?>");

This works perfectly in Firefox and Opera, but Chromium and IE6 only change the text to value of $data[0]["brand"/"category"] (which is a string) and seem to ignore the onclick attr

I have a page within which is an iframe, and within that iframs is a text area. I need to be able to insert text into that text area from the mother page. I have tried to insert it with the following code but it's not working :

I've also tried to insert it using this script :

Highlighting Text With Cursor ?

Nov 10, 2011

I'm trying to write a function that is similar to the ctrl+f functionality you get in IE, where you have a search string and when you click 'next' the whole string if matched is highlighted by the cursor.

This works fine for inputs and text areas using the following code:

But now I need to get it to work for normal text in a text node that is in the HTML/DOM. Is there an equivalent way of making the above method work for text in text nodes?

Alternatively is there a way to make the browser (IE) at least focus on some text in a text node? (I could then highlight it with CSS styles).

Cursor Position In Text Box

Mar 4, 2003

I need to control the cursor position in a textbox to do this, does anyone know how to place the cursor in the textbox at a particular position

The functionality I am looking for...
Excel provides data entry help based on previous entries i.e. if in a previous cell in a column I entered "Jim Bob" then the next cell I type a "J" Excel provides help by showing "Jim Bob" in a way that allows me to pick it or keep typing. This is the kind of functionality I am trying to get using JS.

In the code below I create an array of previous entries by the user over the last 45 days this all comes from a DB but that's not important here. When the user enters a key in the textbox I can pop the text box with a matching value from the array, only up to the chars entered.

The Problem or Question:
Is there a way to place the curser back into the last position and highlight the remaining part of the match from the array?

This is really hard to explain but if you ever used Excel you may have an idea of what I am trying to do. Code:

Moving The Cursor To The End Of A Textboxes Text

Jul 23, 2005

I am using the following code to enter text into text box when it is
empty:

<input name="txt_url" type="text" class="form_text_300" id="txt_url"
onClick="if(this.value == ''){this.value = 'http://'}">

it works fine but when it enters the text - 'http://' - the cursor
jumps back to the start of the line in the text box. How do I then
make the cursor be placed at the end of the text. For example:

http://
here------------------'

http://
and not-------'
