Finding A Number In String - RegExp

Aug 13, 2005

How can I check if a number exists by itself in this string by using
the RegExp object?

var mystring = "11,111,01,011";
var match = "1";
var re = new RegExp( match );
var isFound = re.test( mystring ) );

Running this code returns 'true' which is not what I want since number
one doesn't exist by itself. I need to use the "match" variable since
it will change depending on user input.

I can only get it to work without variables in the expression. E.g.

var re = new RegExp( /1/ );

Finding Position Of A RegExp Subexpression

Apr 21, 2006

I need to come up with a function
function regExpPos (text, re, parenNum) { ... }
that will return the position within text of RegExp.$parenNum if there
is a match, and -1 otherwise.

For example:
var re = /some(thing|or other)?.*(n(est)(?:ed)?.*(parens) )/
var text = "There were some nesting parens in the test";
alert (regExpPos (text, re, 3));

should show 17

Would anyone have one of these?

RegExp: How To Match On Exact String Only?

Jul 23, 2005

I am trying to figure out how to set up my reg exp search so that the search
will only match on the exact word.

Here is the current problem code:

Word1 = "RealPlayer.exe"
Word2 = "Player.exe"

RegExp re = Word2;
if (re.Find(Word1))
{
bFound = TRUE;
}

Currently the bFound is set to TRUE since "Player.exe" is found within
"RealPlayer.exe". But I only want bFound to be TRUE is if the entire word
matches.

Finding If Numbers In A Set Add Up To Another Given Number?

Aug 10, 2009

I have what I thought was a fairly simple problem that I would be able to solve on my own, but the code I have found is just too complicated for me to understandI think what i have is similar to the knapsack problem, but I have a really simple version of/~moshe/recor/knapsack/knapsack.html#defSay I have a relatively small array of numbers:2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. I just need to verify true or false if a combination of these numbers will add up to 21. The numbers will obviously be changing, ( and in array size), i guess i could just use if statements but it would be stupid and go on for ages.Could anyone point me in the direction of some simple code, or easy to understand way to go about this problem?

Regexp - Negative Match For Fixed String (vs. A Char List)?

Mar 28, 2007

Is there a way in a regexp to *not* match a fixed string value?

Using [^blah] gives matches to anything not containing *any* of letters
b,l,a and h. Whereas I want to match anything that does not containing
the exact string 'blah', i.e. *all* the letters.

Possible?

Diving Into Regexp By Porting A Perl Script Over To Js That Uses Regexp To Compress Into A Bookmarklet Capable Format?

Aug 10, 2010

I'm finally diving into regexp by porting a perl script over to js that uses regexp to compress javascript into a bookmarklet capable format.I've successfully worked out 90% of the expressions but am troubled with a few, this one at the moment is odd:I want to remove the first line if it hasjavascript:So I thought str.replace(/^javascripts+:s+/, "") would be ok. I want javascript text, any space, colon, any space and new line. what I'm doing wrong.btw this is the original perl version

$src =~ s{^// ?javascript.+:.+

How Do I Convert A Number: From Dec To Hex Into A String?

Sep 9, 2006

Now I need to convert a number(decimal) into a hex.string. I want to pass my blurit() two colors and have it start at color one and step its way to color two based on a determined step. I need to convert the new color to a hex string to be used to control the color of text. This is a rough example of what I am doing:

function blurit(color1, color2) {
colorstep= (color2-color1) /10; clr=color;
for (lp=0; lp<10; lp++) {
test.innerHTML+= '<font color="#' +dex(clr) +'">'
clr+= colorstep;

Convert A Number To A String?

Apr 3, 2010

I'm trying to write code to swap images in a list. It's going to be a star rating control that highlights stars as you hover over a star. each image in the list has an onmouseover="highlight(this)" function and a unique id of 1 - 10.

Code:
function highlight(star) {
var num = Number(star.id);
for (i = 0; i < num; i++)

[Code].....

I'm trying to convert the number 'i' used by the for loop to a string so it can be used by the getElementById() method to select the stars to be highlighted. But my intellisense is telling me there is a problem with that line. I tried

var id = String(i+1);

but this didn't work either.

what have I gotten wrong?

Why Does 1+1 Equal 11? Or How Do I Convert A String To A Number?

Sep 2, 2006

Javascript variables are loosely typed: the conversion between a
string and a number happens automatically. Since plus (+) is also
used as in string concatenation, `` &#391;' + 1 '' is equal to `` &#3911;' '': the
String deciding what + does. To overcome this, first convert the
string to a number. For example:
