How Does Gmail Change TextArea During Spell Check?

Jul 23, 2005

If you've used the Google Gmail spell checker you know that it
'changes' the text area to another type of control that lets them show
hyperlinks for the incorrect words. How does Google change the
textarea? And what do they change it to? I know it should be pretty
simple, I just have no clue because I'm fairly new to DHTML. Any
examples would be greatly appreciated.

How Can I Get To The Textarea In Gmail Draft.

Jul 10, 2006

I am trying to make a bookmarklet to enlarge textarea in Gmail. But I
can't get to the textarea.

When you are composing a message in Gmail, the page has two frames. the
first frame has name "main". That frame contains a textarea named
"msgbody" in which you compose messages.

I have tried with Firebug getElementsByTagName and getElementsByName
but all fails.

self.main.document.getElementsByTagName('textarea' ) returns empty list.
self.main.document.getElementsByName('msgbody') also returns empty
list.

I suspect that it is because the textarea is buried deep in the DOM
tree.

The dom path from the main frame to the textarea is:
/html/body/table/tbody/tr[2]/td[2]/form/table/tbody/tr[5]/td/div[3]/table/tbody/tr[2]/td[2]/textarea

However the dom path from the main frame to the first div element is
/html/body/div
and self.main.document.getElementsByTagName('div') returns a nonempty
list.

JQuery :: Detecting Change To A Textarea When Change Not Initiated By User?

Jul 11, 2010

I'm using a text area to display textual updates to a user from the server. I'm inserting the text at the bottom of the textarea and need to set the scrollbar to the bottom of the textarea after every update. The problem is that the onChange event only fires if the user actually changes something in the text area, not if it is changed by an ajax update.Does anyone know of a way to detect if there has been an update to a textarea that was NOT triggered by a user?

Detecting Change In Textarea

Jul 23, 2005

I am trying to detect whether a user entered text in a textarea
or hit the delete/backspace button (thus, erasing something). Once
that is detected, I would like to set "var bSaveRequired = true;". It
would be great if this function worked cross-browser -- IE 6.0 and
Firefox.

JQuery :: Textarea Text Won't Change?

Oct 3, 2011

I've been trying to change the text in a textarea element to no avail. I'm using the following to change the text:

$(inlineEditor.CurrentEditCollection).find('#resource_description').each(function(){
this.val(vals.value);
});
vals.value contains the text. The Textarea element is in a TD in a TR that is contained in inlineEditor.CurrentEditCollection

The selector seems to find the element just fine but the text will not change.

Font Colour Change In Textarea

Nov 29, 2011

I want a set up some type of array/ IF statement within a textarea.

This is what i want it to do...

If textarea text = "[example]" then change colour of font #383838

I need it as a basic validation method to ensure the user has typed in the correct text. for example if the member uses { in stead of [ it will not turn a different colour and the user ill no they have not typed it in correct.

I presumed there would be some JQuery code out there that would enable this but I can't find it. ( or even know what search term to use )
