Creating New Line Characters When Using NodeValue?

Jan 1, 2009

I was wondering if it is possible to create a new line character when modifying a nodeValue with Javascript.

I'm not too familiar with the DOM model so it may not even be possible.

I have <p id="something">text</p>

and when someone clicks a button, 'text' gets updated. I believe I used

Code JavaScript: document.getElementById("something").childNodes[0].nodeValue = "new value";

or something similar to update the text for a p tag).

However, if "new value" is "new value" or "<br />new value", it either appears on the same line and doesn't do anything different (including ), or it actually changes the text to read exactly "<br />new value" (using <br />).

So, is it possible to move part of the text to the next line, or will the DOM model not allow me to do so this way?

JQuery :: Getting Complete Xml Text From A Node - XML NodeValue

Mar 17, 2010

I'm trying to re-export a filtered set of XML data. For an input like this:

<object>
<header />
<thing1>
<value1>1</value1>

[Code].....

However, this currently returns 'undefined'. Is there any easy way to do this, or do I need to actually parse the XML below thing1 and manually write my own XML sub-tree?

NodeValue - Text Appearing Above Rather Than Inside Node

Oct 9, 2005

After much work, I've come up with some Javascript/DOM that almost works :)

function setblocktitle(id, text)
{
document.getElementById(id).firstChild.nodeValue = text;
}

With my HTML being:
<div id="hits" class="modules">
<h2>Hits</h2>
<div class="blah">
...

The problem is, when calling setblocktitle with setblocktitle("hits", "Totals"); I end up with the attached image rather than "Hits" being replaced by "Totals".

XmlDom - Compare A String To A .nodeValue It Always Fails, Even If They Are Same?

Apr 13, 2011

I'm still pretty new to javascript and dom, but have been coding with other languages for a while.When I try to compare a string to a .nodeValue it always fails, even if they are same. From what I've read typecasting is automatic in javascript or is this incorrect? For instance

var myGreet = "Hello";
var myFrag = myXML.lastChild.firstChild.firstChild.childNodes[0].nodeValue; returns Hello
if(myGreet == myFrag){ always returns false
alert(myFrag);
}

Submit/return To Php When Moving From Table Line To Table Line?

Jan 13, 2011

I have a user that insists they have web applications that do this, and wants the one I'm building to do it too...

You have a table on an html form. As the user changes one or more fields in a table row and moves to the next line, the changed row should AUTOMATICALLY be sent back to the server and updated in the database.

If the user moves BACK to a line that's already been changed, and changed a field, a popup should display and ask "if the user really wants to change the field". If so, again, it should AUTOMATICALLY be sent to the server and updated in the database...

Ignoring the horridness of making that many round trips to the server and banging the database for every line, is there a way to AUTOMATICALLY do the equivalent of a submit and post the changed table row back to the php script?

Multiple Div On Same Line

Jun 11, 2009

i need to delvelop something like "SomeName X". Currently i am doing with DIV(1 DIV for 'SomeName' and 1 DIV for 'X' and finally float-left to another DIV). Since these names(like "Somename1 X",'Somename2 X")are populated in the div container, when it reaches the right end of the container, "X" alone getting wrapped to the next line. But it has to be along with 'SomeName' always. As other forums says, I tried with table but it didn't work since the final div container is fixed and i get multiple names with variant length. I tried clear: both, float left - it too didn't work. I have seen like the one in facebook - compose page.

Unicode Characters

Aug 2, 2007

Problem:

Depending on an input value, I would like to output greek characters
(f. e. those between U+03B1 to U+03C9. One way would be to define two
arrays: one with the possible input values ("abgde...") and a second
array with the corresponding values ("u03b1u03b2u03b3...").

But I hoped I could skip the second by a computation, f.e. "g" has
index 2 in the first array, so output "u03b1"+2.

This does not work (of course). But do I have a chance to "compute"
the output value?

Getting Div Width In Characters

Nov 18, 2005

I have a bordered div with some text in it. Some of the text is one long string and thus runs outside of the div. The div stretches out to the width of the browser window so that long string of text runs all the way out past the edge of the scrollbar.

Is there a way I can use JavaScript to detect the width of the div from the edge of one border to the next and then convert that number into the number of characters that can fill that width?
