Is there way to only match on strings starting with the first characters input?For instance, if I have a list as such:[ 'Tamara','Amy']when I start to type 'Am', I only want to see "Amy" in the drop down list, not "Tamara".I feel like this should be an easy configuration option or easy mod, but alas, I could not find it.
View 1 RepliesI 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.
I wanted to only match in the middle of a string
I have a string = " sdfasf 23234"
I wanted to get the numbers like /([0-9]*)/
But this fails and returns nothing because the string begins with letters. Instead I had to do /[a-zA-Z ]*([0-9]*)/
If that's the case then, why do we bother with something like
/^[a-zA-Z]*([0-9]*)$/
The pattern is already assumed to start at the beginning of the string
I want to match 5 uppercase letters followed by a dash, followed by 5 more uppercase letters. I tested this:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
var str="^This is a test. PIYRW-NKJDQ";
var patt1=/[A-Z]{5}-[A-Z]{5}/g;
document.write(str.match(patt1));
</script>
and if I change the last part of str to "XXPIYRWV-XNKJDQ" it matches "IYRWV-XNKJD" when I want it to return null. What am I doing wrong?
Perhaps I need a function? that will test for 2 or 4 exact matches, then opens the window or page?
Lastly I need to put some white space btw some data
example aaaa 111111 vs aaaa111111

I am working on a script that seems impossible to work. I want to click on a link, and if the .text() is the same as a classname of a div, I want to do stuff with the div. The problem is that I can't imagine how to set up the if-state. Right now the script is like this:
$(document).ready(function(){
var filterTrig = $('#sortPort a').html();
$('#sortPort a').click(function() {
$('.listItem').each(function(){
if (!filterTrig == $(this).hasClass(filterTrig).html()){
$('listItem').addClass('test'); //later on, animations
}} return false; }); });
The script runs here: [URL]. I have turned off all other javascript to work only with this, if the site seems broken. The filterbox to the left will filter the div items listed to the right. All "boxes" in the list is a div with classname listItem + classes equal to the a.text() in the filters (leftbox). It is thoose divs I´m trying to animte with clicks.

How could I do to remove the elementsthatmatch the 'remove' list?
I'm trying to create a script where all the hyperlinks in a page will be replaced with a new set of coding before it. (e.g: a href="this.htm?http://www.google.com").
My code generates this change through a series of random numbers and only runs the script when "2" is the generated number (out of 12). Now, I only know how to replace all occurrences of "href" in all "a" tags, but there are times when I use Javascript to launch new windows or even javascript to navigate to the top of a page.
I tried to use a string match method to search for occurrences of "javascript:" and so forth, but I can't seem to get it working. Code:
How do I extract "somestring" only? I'm on IE7.

alert(full);
var inside = (x.match(/(H:(.*))/)); // produces "(H:somestring),somestring" .. I only
want "somestring"
alert(inside);

I am trying to do a pattern match and check something in a condition but cant get it to work. The first value changes and I need to check and do something if I get a hit on it.
Code:

if (mydata.indexOf("first") == "something")

What regular expression will match ANY string that has 10 digits in it?
View 24 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to perform a very simple validation of user input. I
want to verify that the user entered a six-digit string consisting
entirely of numbers. So anything from 000000 to 999999 is considered
valid. The problem that I'm having is getting the validation to work on
the entire string. In other words, 000000 is okay but 000000000000 is
also returning as a match. Here's a quick code block...I have something
along these lines....

That is failing when I enter 123456 into the textbox. Why, though? I
know I can replace...
if (sNumberValue.match(/A[0-9]{6}z/))

if (sNumberValue.length == 6 && sNumberValue.match(/[0-9]{6}/))
....or I could assign a maxlength to the input box, of course. The thing
is, I really want to know WHY the regular expression isn't responding
as I'd expect. Is there a syntax error somewhere in the code?

I am using the jquery autocomplete pugin fromhttp://bassistance.de/jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-autocomplete/
I need to perform an action if no data is returned from the autocomplete search but there seems sto be no way to do that. Any ideas pls?
Does anyone have a library or patch to call a handler if a user leaves an autocomplete field without choosing one of the autocomplete options - i.e. they've entered free text. I'm working with an app that populates multiple fields from a single auto-complete value, and our latest requirement is to clear out a bunch of fields if the user's entered something manually - rejecting autocomplete suggestions. My initial attempts at hooking into onkeyfoo and onblur haven't lead anywhere productive, and I'm hoping someone else has managed to overcome the gnarly event and timing dependencies involved with onkeyfoo and blur being used for standard autocomplete behaviour.
