Inline Text Highlighting - User To Be Able To Select The Text They Want To Highlight
Sep 10, 2010Alright, I'm using a Rooh.It WordPress plugin right now, but I don't like the way they do it, so I want to write my own code to do something similar.
I want the user to be able to select the text they want to highlight, and the background color of that text changes to whatever color they have selected.
How can I do this in JavaScript?

Javascript Info Popup On Highlight
Dec 17, 2006I've seen this effect on other sites, but I don't know how to do
it. What I'm trying to do is enable the user to highlight a portion of
text on a webpage, then click an "edit" button and a little window will
popup with that highlighted text in an editable mode (or it could be
the entire paragraph tag that the highlighted text sits in). Then I
want them to be able to edit the text however they want, click a "save"
button, and the text updates within the webpage. I know how to do the
last part of this, but I don't know how to make the popup window work
and include the highlighted text.
Just a little background on this project: What I ultimately want to be
able to do is let the website's owner be able to update the contents of
her site whenever she wishes. This is what she wants because she
doesn't know html and doesn't want to learn it. She also doesn't want
to learn dreamweaver or any other wysiwyg editor. I would almost guess
that a similar project exists out there already, maybe not using
javascript, but I haven't been able to find it. Code:

Jul 14, 2007Is there a way to selectively highlight text in an OverLib popup? I'd
like to be able to make some text stand out from the rest of the text
that is displayed.
I tried using a one-cell table with background set to yellow, but that
caused the popup not to work at all (this might be a syntax problem -
I haven't been able to find any syntax examples for putting a table
inside an OverLib call)

Highlight Text By Page User
Dec 11, 2010I'm working on an educational website for reading strategies where I would like to have the possibilty for the user to highlight text and the possibilty to check their highlighted answers.User task: Mark all the cause and effect connectors (because, so, therefore etc) in the text.Now I want the user to take the mouse and go over the text and mark all these connectors in the text. After marking the entire text the user will get feedback for his correct and incorrect answers and a possibilty to correct his mistakes.If the user marks in the sentence "He got hurt, because he fell of his bike." the word 'because' I would like somewhere else on the page be written that he did this correctly. If he would mark the word 'hurt' I would like the user to get a feedback saying that this answer is incorrect.Is this possible with simple html or do I need something else. If I need something else what do I need and maybe there is already a ready to use script for this.

How To Mark (highlight) A Text-field OnFocus
Jul 23, 2005I'm working on a JSP application, and wish to define a text-field so
that it becomes marked (highligted) when it obtains focus.

manually delete the given 'onFocus' value before I set a new value.

JQuery :: Highlight Matched Text Using Autocomplete?
Oct 15, 2010I have spent the last week trying to figure out how to do the following: User types some text in a text box. The autocomplete queries a php script that returns JSON of matched values. I have got thedrop down list to show these values but I cannot for the life of me get the matched characters to turn bold. For example, if the user types in "rav" and my list contains:
RAVEN
RAVE
RAVEL
then I want it to appear as
RAVEN
RAVE
RAVEL
My current JS code is as follows (along with HTML):
$(function() {
$( "#query" ).autocomplete({

Gecko Find/Highlight Text In Page
Jul 9, 2002People have complained that window.find() doesn't work, and everyone knows Gecko doesn't support IE's proprietary TextRange object, some have assumed you can't do this in Gecko.
On the contrary though:
Node.prototype.findTextMatches = [];
Node.prototype.findText = function(query, ignoreCase) {
this.findTextMatches.length = 0;
if (ignoreCase)
query = query.toLowerCase();
var tw = this.ownerDocument.createTreeWalker(this, NodeFilter.SHOW_TEXT, { acceptNode: function(node) {return NodeFilter['FILTER_' + (RegExp(query, (ignoreCase ? 'i' : '')).test(node.nodeValue) ? 'ACCEPT' : 'REJECT')] } }, true);
var offsets = [];
offsets[-1] = query.length * -1;
var totalMatches, trueOffsetDiff;
var range = this.ownerDocument.createRange();
while (tw.nextNode()) {
totalMatches = tw.currentNode.nodeValue.split(RegExp(query, (ignoreCase ? 'i' : ''))).length - 1;
for (var i = 0; i < totalMatches; i++) {
trueOffsetDiff = offsets[offsets.length - 1] + query.length;
offsets[offsets.length] = tw.currentNode.nodeValue.substr(trueOffsetDiff)[ignoreCase ? 'toLowerCase' : 'toString']().indexOf(query) + trueOffsetDiff;
range.selectNode(tw.currentNode);
range.setStart(tw.currentNode, offsets[offsets.length - 1]);
range.setEnd(tw.currentNode, range.startOffset + query.length);
this.findTextMatches[this.findTextMatches.length] = range.cloneRange();
}
offsets.length = 0;
}
return (tw.currentNode != this);
}
Node.prototype.highlightText = function() {
if (this.findTextMatches.length > 0) {
with (window.getSelection()) {
removeAllRanges();
addRange(this.findTextMatches.shift());
}
return true;
}
else
return false;
}
To search all text in the body, ignoring case, you'd go like:
document.body.findText('search query', true);
That loads up an array full of ranges selecting the text into document.body.findTextMatches.
To selectively highlight next occurences after executing findText:
document.body.highlightText();
// highlights first occurence
document.body.highlightText();
// removes previous selection, highlights second occurrence
// etc
Just calling that method over and over will successfully highlight instances. It returns true if it highlighted something, false otherwise,
Also, since I prototyped Node, it works not just in HTML documents, but can work in XML documents too.
Calling document.findText in an HTMLDocument may cause interesting results, as it searches through all the nodes, including <head>...
