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.

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?

JQuery :: Retain Text In Textarea?

Aug 7, 2009

I have a webpage I've been working on and it utilizes jQuery Autoscroll. You can view it here [URL]

I'm having a problem and I can't figure it out.

I have a text area. I can put text into it and it will scroll. However, when I go to File>new window to create a new identical but separate webpage the text which I just typed into the autotext area doesn't get copied over. Everything else does. Why is that? How can I fix it so that it will copy over.

Is this a JQuery issue or is it more of an html issues.

Adding Text To Textarea - Create An Additional Button That Will Insert Some Text - Certain Html Tags

Mar 10, 2010

I am creating a small CMS module for a client. I created a little form and when they click Submit, it goes straight out into an include (.inc) file, which is connected to the web page to be displayed.

The trouble I am having is that I'd like to create an additional button that will insert some text (certain html tags to make their life easier, etc) - I got it to work, actually. The script executes and the text is inserted - but once the script runs and the page refreshes (or whatever it does), the text then disappears. The only way I can seem to get it to stay put is when I use "onmouseup" instead of "onclick" - which means that every time the user accidentally mouses over the thing, it inserts the text.

JQuery :: Can't Read Text From A Textarea - From A Phone Browser

Oct 21, 2010

Ive created this simple test page with a textarea, a div, and a button. And then this code:

function copytext() {
var temp= $('#TextArea').text();
$('#emptydiv').append(temp);
}

Now in a normal browser (IE, firefox), when i type something in the field, and push the button, the text appends and shows - exactly as it should.

But on a phone (I´ve tried with Iphone and htc), nothing happens. It wont copy the text. I´m using jquery for alot of other stuff on the mobile page which works just fine.

JQuery :: Manipulate Text Inside Of A <textarea> And Use Tooltips?

Apr 5, 2010

I have a grammar check on the server that can grammar check text... big surprise there. It'll return a list of match problems, along with the positions in the text that are flawed. It'll also send the grammar rule that was broken in plain english, to help someone fix it.

So we have a list of these basically:

What I'd like to do is apply different styles to the text inside of the <textarea> for all these positions (5 to 10 in the case above, but I'm going to have a list of these).

I also want to make it so if a user hovers on top one of these problems, I can show a tooltip that contains the "message" property.

JQuery :: Onclick Jump To The Next(x) Input (text - Textarea - Select)

Jul 20, 2011

I have a problem to solve where I have a Hidden set of 40 text inputs. A link to show 10 more of these in inputs at a time, all having unique ID's. The goal I am trying to accomplish is to set the focus to say the 10th input. If the "show more inputs" link is clicked then the focus should go to the next 10th input (really input ID number 20) and so on.

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.

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 )

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.
