Can anyone tell me how to escape the special characters(like &,^,%,$ etc) in a string using Javascript?
For eg. I have a string like this : "Tes$#t" I want this to be changed to Tes$# before sending as a input parameter. So that i can process the string as it is typed exactly.
am in need of escaping the regular expression special characters like '/', '.', '*', '+', '?', '|','(', ')', '[', ']', '{', '}', '\'.I have try with this by the following javascript but i can not achieve that.
RegExp.escape=function(str)
{
if (!arguments.callee.sRE) {

I'm using HAML to make html templates but am having a problem in writing attributes which will be replaced with JavaScript string templating.
The line in question looks like this:
%div{:class => "<%= from_class %>"}
HAML tries to encode the <%= %> tags:
<div class="<%= from_class %>">
I don't want that to happen in this case... Anyone know how to do this?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have character counter for textarea wich counting the characters.
Special character needs same place as two normal characters because of
16-bit encoding.
Counter is counting -2 when special character is added like some
language specific char.
How to count specials like 1 char?
Attempting to use javascript's regular expression methods to match a
particular lab number and building which would then be copied to a pair
of textfields, I found that general matching characters needing a
backslash were not recoginized. The following adapted code that finds
a two-button radio selection shows my problem:
function labstat(){
for (i=1; i<3; i++){
if(document.tester.rm_mod[i-1].checked){
var lb = document.tester.elements["lab"+(i)].value;//either
214 or 215*
var bld = document.tester.bldg.value;
if(/*/.test(lb)){ //error:Undetermined comment
// if(/*/.test(lb)){ //error:Syntax error
// if(/5/.test(lb)){ //works to match only 215*
// if(/5*/.test(lb)){ //true for all
// if(/ddd/.test(lb)){ //false for all
document.tester.room1.value = lb;
document.tester.bldg1.value = bld;
}
}
}
It appears that the escaped characters are not recognized, whichever
form of the method is used, i.e var re = /*/; // or = new
RegExp("*");
if(re.test(lb)){

With the --.match(__) method I have the same problem.

I have a problem displaying a divbox containing a html-textarea -
everything works fine with "normal" characters. However, when the
textarea contains special chars like <P> or ' , the box fails to show:
function show(divbox)
{
divbox.style.display=''
}
<div id="divbox" style="display:none" >
<form action="action.php" method="post>
<textarea name ="txt">Text</textarea>
</form>
</div>
If the Text in the textarea is for instance
HERE IS A "QUOTE"
it works fine, while
HERE IS A 'QUOTE'
produces an error
<br>-tags works fine, but
<p>-tags doesn't
I have a number of scripts that take special characters and convert them
to their ascii equivalents and them store them in the database.
However I am running into a problem that I have some of those fields are
loaded to an array and inserted into cells dynamically. As an example
the array would be:
var my_array = [ ["52","Source Data"], ["19","Body &
Soap"] ];
Then I have some javascript that creates the cell and inserts the value
into a cell text node like:
var x = my_array[1][1]; // this would be "Body & Soap"
//create the cell
myTD=document.createElement("TD");
//create the text node
myText=document.createTextNode(x);
// Appends each node following the structure.
myTD.appendChild(myText);
What I see on the output is: "Body & Soap"
What I should see is: "Body & Soap"

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to get some images on my page by their src attribute. Src attribute have this format :
src = [URL]
For doing that I'm using the following query :
$j("img[src*='request=gettile'][src*='"+$j(this).data("target")+"']")
$j(this).data("target") contains my mapname, it works fine.
But my users can use mapname that can be contained in another map names. Example : mapblabla and pbla. When I'm searching pbla it's returning images of mapblabla and pbla. That's why I need to put the symbol equal before and the symbol & after my map name. Then the request is :
$j("img[src*='request=gettile'][src*='\="+$j(this).data("target")+"\&']")
