Is there an available function in jQuery that would let me extract certain string of characters in a given expression, say I have the expression "2|23|6|niece", i wanted to extract 2,23,6 and niece from the given expresion and assign each in a variable leaving the (" | ") character
How can I get price from a string using regular expression ? Or by any other means .
Let's say. var str="Our shop receives only $. This shoe costs $200. We don't accept anything else then $"; ow could I retrieve '$200' from this above string. By any means.
I'm finishing my javascript form validator (only text fields for now) and here's one of the last things that's left.
I'm using class names of input elements as parameters for my validator. To find them i use Element.hasClassName(id, class) method from prototype library. I want to implement minlength parameter - so i grab a regexp tutorial and after a minute i had something like this minlength[[1-9][0-9]*], which finds minlength[1], minlength[666] and so on.
Great, but how to pass this as a paramter to hasClassName method, which requires string as a className?
I want to check if the user enters alphabet or numbers only in the text box. If the user enters non-alphabet or non-numbers, I should pop up a message and doesn't allow the user to do that. I am using regular expression to do the checking. But it seems it always return false...
I'm developing a web app and I want to validate a users input on a form. I need a regular expression to validate a string which must begin with a letter (i.e. A-Z or a-z) and must have 5 numbers (0-9) after it....
I have just spent a while searching how to use regular expression to strip out spaces in a string and replace them with ',' I don't seem to be getting anywhere and was hoping someone could explain how to do it.
I'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/))
....with something like...
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?
<p> Howdy <p> expressed as a literal string that is passed to the setTimeout() function might look like this: setTimeout("document.getElementById('first').innerHTML = '<p>' + 'HOWDY' + '</p>';", 2000);
I guess you can't just put quotes around an expression like this: "'<p> HOWDY </p>;" So tags have to be isolated, but it get confusing with expressions like this, which I am not sure how to express as a string:
I wish I could change the " in there to ' and then just wrap the whole thing in double " This is what I came up with but it did not work: setTimeout("document.getElementById('first').innerHTML = '<p>' + '<h2' + 'class='pos_left'' + '>' + '<img' + 'src='car1.jpg'' + 'name='slide'' + 'width='400'' + 'height='250'' + '/>' + '</h2>' + '</p>';", 4000);
I have a search box. I need to remove all the special characters from the search term and then query it.-,?~!@#$%&*+-= all these characters.can anybody suggest a proper regular expression for this ? and the syntax for using it in javascript.my query is saved in var query;
Just a quick one here I want a regular expression that tests a string to find out if not empty. I am currently using /^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$/ which allows all alphanumeric characters, however unfortunately does not allow white space. As I am trying to use the RE for a form name input and I don't wish to separate first and last name, I want to allow users to enter their full name including spaces. Can anyone tell me an RE that allows all alphanumeric characters and white space in a string but does not allow an empty string
I wanted to try creating a basic expression first. I want someone to enter a string that is 2 - 20 characters long and only has letters. This is what I use so far, and it doesn't work, nothing happens at all when I run it.
Code: // Check for a valid name. var namePattern = new RegExp("/^[a-zA-Z]{2,20}$/"); if (namePattern.test(name)) { window.alert("Invalid"); }
name comes from a input box I display on screen. Also, I would like to update the expression so that there can be one space in the string, but it cannot be at the beginning or end. So this string is like a persons name. Bob is OK, Bob Smith is also OK. Edit: Actually, it is doing something but its always coming back invalid.
I need a simple, quick and efficient way to logically branch if I find a string is contained in another string in jquery Most other languages this can be resolved in one or two lines and it would be readable.
I have: <script id="foo" type="text/x-jquery-tmpl"> <p>${100 * parseInt(x)}</p> </script> When I do: $('#foo').tmpl({'x':5}) // or '5'
[Code]...
I've been searching and everything I find says that ${} should be able to handle arbitrary expressions, but there seems to be some syntax magic/intolerance going on here.
