Reading External Text File - Load The Content Of The File Into A Variable In Script

Jul 16, 2010

I'm writing a script and I've encountered a problem.. I have a txt file with many words, each word in a different line. For example: the file words.txt contains:

word1
word2
word3
word4
word5

I need to load the content of the file into a variable in my script. I prefer that all the words will be in the same variable with line breaks, but if you'll figure out a way to put it in an array, it's ok too. I really don't know how to do it, and I tried to google but didn't understand.. By the way, I don't want to change the txt file to js file, I need it to remain txt..

Read Some Data From An XML File ?

Mar 21, 2011

I have a project that I need to read some data from an XML file.

Something like:

However, since JS is a client side script so it can't read from client side, is there any alternate way to do this? I am thinking to create a "Data" class, and many "Data" objects, is this an elegant way to do it?

Parsing Data From An Xml File

Sep 6, 2010

I'm trying to parse my data from an xml file now and print it out on the page based on date from my existing code. I have that working, with each item formatted the same way on the page What I'd like to do now is alter it a bit to make the most recent (the item listed on the top of the page) formatted differently and the rest of them as it is now. Something like - (if 1st <li> then build html like this else build html like that) I hope this makes sense.

How Do I Insert A Text File Just Like An <img> File?

Aug 19, 2006

I have a folder of images from which I access individual pictures using the ID[Who] variable index passed down from the parent frame plus a local index variable p.

document.write('<img src="Photos/'+ID[top.Who]+p+'.jpg" width="100" border="3"><BR>');

where an example file in Photos is PhotosAndiamo1.jpg, the ID in this case resolving to "Andiamo" and the local variable is = 1. This works great.

I would like to add a file of text captions associated with the pictures, preferably saved in the Photos folder such as PhotoAndiamo1.txt.

While I can fetch the images easily by document.writeing the <img ....> command, how do I do a similar fetch for the text data and document.write it to the HTML? (Short of the hassle of creating text images and fetching those.)

JQuery :: Getting Data From JSON File?

May 4, 2010

I think I have a varialbe scope problem here, but I can't figure it out. What I'm trying to do is extract a piece of data from a JSON file using a variable established earlier in the script as one of the keys.

When I run this script I get the alert that lets me know that the variable "theMappableItem" has been established correctly. I click "OK" in the alert box. Then in my console (in firebug) I see a line showing that the .json file has been gotten successfully. Next in the console is an error that says:

Sending Data Inside .js File?

Sep 14, 2010

I have several functions in a .js file that collect various types of information from the visitor, let's just say they are strings, and want to send that information to my database. I have no problem putting the information in my database once I get everything into PHP (I'm relatively new to JS).

Am I able to make a form in the .js file and automatically submit it once all the functions finish? I also need the page not to refresh when sending this information so I'm assuming some AJAX will need to be involved. I was able to send a basic form using some jQuery I found and have the page not refresh but can't figure out how to do the same in a .js file.

<script type="text/javascript">
// wait for the DOM to be loaded
$(document).ready(function() {
// bind 'myForm' and provide a simple callback function
$('#myForm').ajaxForm(function() {
});
});
</script>

Export Table Data To A Csv File?

Jul 4, 2011

Hi there. i have a page that displays the results of a mysql query from one table. i need to add a button to the page so the user can download the table data into a .csv file, and save the file to their hard drive.I have a PHP script that gathers the table data into .csv format, but it just dumps onto the bottom of my results page. As far as i know, there is no way to call a PHP function with an html button,

So, i am looking either a link to a javascript script that 1. converts the table data to .csv format, and puts the data into a file which is then downloaded, or 2. a link to a good tutorial on how to do this.

Loading File Data Into An Array ?

Dec 16, 2011

A program I am writing will be loading the data of a file into an array. This data is read as an image and is displayed. Part of it will be the modification of palettes, so if I click Palette 4, it would go in and edit the array to have new contents (predefined by me) and redisplay the image in place of the one that was there before. How would I load a file into an array and display it as an image and stuff?

JQuery :: Saving A Data Structure To A File?

Mar 1, 2011

I have a JSON data structure that I'm pulling in VIA an AJAX call. What I want to be able to do is click a button/link and be able to save this data structure to disk, but I'm not really sure how to go about this. I've been experimenting with the following:The link has the following format "<a href='data:application/json, " + data_structure + "'>Click here!</a>" I've been able to replace data_structure with text and /json to /rtf, which gives me a pop-up 'SaveAs' dialog box, and when I open the file, it has my text in there. However, if I do data_structure, I just get [Objectobject], which is telling me that I'm passing in the object, but that's basically it, I need to expand it out? I'm not really sure how to do that...Which leads me to calling a perl script. So I make an ajax call like so:

$.ajax({
'dataType': 'JSON',
'type': 'GET',
