View 4 Replies View RelatedI've tried numerous ways to get the above effect. In essence what I want is:
function timedCount() {
picker = (picker + 1) % quotes.length; // 3...4...1...2...3...4...1...2...
napFor = quotes[picker].length * 150; // Delay based on string length
[code]....
This appears to work right... for a while. Then it just gets all out of synch with itself, fading in and out the same quote, switching quotes and then fading the new one in and out.
how does document.write interpret "" and '' (double quotes and single quotes).what is the significance of &Url (does it signify the current url) colon : is it represented as %3A ? and backslash represented as %2F ?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a div with some content in it, within the content there's an anchor and when you click it all the content but the anchor itself should fadeTo('slow', 0.2);
What I have now is;
$("p a#somelink").click(function()
{
$(this).parent().parent().children("p").fadeTo("slow", 0.2);
return false;
});
Which obviously just fades all paragraphs. Is it possible to do what I want and with which selection string would I achieve it?
How can I find first word of the paragraph an then copy it?Second bit I've already work out, but could not find any example of finding first word.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm having some problem trying to escape single quotes. basically, I got some text on the database. if text contains double or single quotes, these are replaced with " and ' respectively. I'm using PHP to alert a portion of the text, let's say "hello, y'all!", this way:
PHP Code:
<?php
echo '<script type="text/javascript">'
echo "alert('hello, y'all!');";
echo '</script>'
?>
well, the js code breaks, just as if ''' were converted to the 'single quote' character. how so?
I have a long paragraph and I have been asked to display words in red and green in such a way that that fist word should be red, 2nd word should be green, 3rd word should be red and 4th word should be green and so on. For example: this is just a sample.

function view(text)
{
document.getElementById("textbox").innerHTML="<input type='text' value='"+text+"'>";
}
</script>
<a href="#" onclick="view('a ' " ')">click to view textbox</a>
<div id="textbox"></div>
this is an example of what im trying to do in a site. what this code does is when you click on hyperlink it shows a textbox in the div with text but single quote is causing problem and not letting it show the textbox even though i have escaped the single quote it will still not work double quote is working fine.
my guess is since i first send it to function and then function prints it so the escape i did is removed and it starts giving error and will not print textbox in the div. can anyone tell what should i add to escape and make it working i tested it in textarea its working there only it causes problem in textbox.
the title basically sums it up. how can i see if a word is in a url and then if it is, do something with it.

I know that using <a href="javascript:"> and <sometag onclick=""> is evil, but in this particular situation it is quite hard to avoid it due to external powers Anyway here is the issue itself : putting javascript strings inside HTML attributes :
Code:
<button onclick="DoSomething('string')">
Everything is fine until there are single or double quotes INSIDE the 'string' value. Having a double quote inside the string, even JS escaped leads to the onclick argument value being cut :
Code:
<button onclick="DoSomething('str"ing')">
If you replace the double quote by '"' then you don't get a double quote inside DoSomething (you could always replace " by " in JS).
Similar problem if you choose to enclose the onclick argument in single quotes and happen to have a single quote JS escaped inside the string.So, is there any other way of dealing with potential presence of single AND double quotes in the 'string' value, other than replacing them before by ' and " and then replacing them back inside DoSomething ?
I want to be able to check a word to see if it is plural (if a word ends with the letter s). If it does I want to remove the letter. This does not have to be a perfect system. I understand that it will also remove the letter from potentially non-plural words if they end in s. It also does not need to handle plural words of other formats. I know this requires a regexp but I'm not sure where to begin.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to extract just a single digit character from a string.
my string is 'constructions-01_0'
I want to extract the very last character, the 0.
how do I do this?
Should I use String.match() or String.split() methods or is there another method I shoud use?
And what should the regExp be to get that last digit?
also separately I want to get the double digit and put that into another string, the 01.
How do I extract just that bit?

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhat I am trying to do is build a script that will read through an array of words and compare another word to the list to find where it would be placed alphabetically; between which two words would my word go.
Here is what I have come up with so far which doesn't work with words shorter than the shortest word in my list, or words spelled like the shortest word in my list except having a few more characters, plus more various issues.
Example: My list
If I use keywords "apex," or "as", this script fails.
What can I do to fix my code...

I'm trying to have a sentence change a single word every 2 seconds, and i have little experience using jQuery, but I'm trying, I've spent a while looking all over and the closest I came was to cycle through a list.[code]....
I'm trying to have only the word (blue) change to (red) after 2 seconds and then to (green) after 2 seconds, but all with either a scroll, or a fade in/out.
I'm wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction?
I know that we can split() a string into an array, if we have a string in an input field like this, "javascript rocks"
what if there is only one keyword in the input field?
for instance, it is only a word - "javascript"?
