JQuery :: String In String An Branch Based On Found?
Oct 18, 2010
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.
<script type="text/javascript"> var str="Welcome to Microsoft! Microsoft Microsoft"; var stringToBeFound = 'Microsoft' var ReplaceString = 'site' document.write(str.replace(stringToBeFound , ReplaceString )); </script>
My problem is im trying to use string.replace that is not case sensitive and replace every string found. I could use regular expression with it but my stringToBeFound is a dynamic variable im getting it from my database
I am doing some maintenance work on a classic asp web page that displays product information. I am changing how the page looks up the available quantities for the various sizes. The old method used several SQL queries to determine the number of sizes and available quantities and then used those results to build a table on the fly on the page.
My modification consists of a web service that consolidates product size availability from three different sources and delivers the data via an XML formatted return. I have also added DOM tags in the table that is built on the fly that identify each entry with the product id and size. So, for a product that has an ID of "P12345" and a size of "XXL," that corresponding cell in the table gets an id tag of "P12345_XXL."
My jQuery update statements worked just fine using this approach until the sizes included decimal numbers. My example for this is shoe sizes. A size represented by an integer (6,7,8,...,15,16,17, etc.) works fine. A half-size represented by a decimal (6.5, 7.5, 8.5,...) does not. Even though the period is contained within a string value, jQuery doesn't seem to be able to match the value with an id tag - and yes, I have verified that the two (the string that I am giving to the jquery select and the actual tag) do indeed match.
So far, the only work-around that I have come up with is to multiply numeric sizes by 10 and parse as integer values. Is this a "known issue" and is there a more elegant solution topursue?
I need a regexp function which makes a match when the string contains <img...AND the img tag above dows NOT contain a certain path Here is what I have:
<imgs.*(src).+>
This matches if my string contains "<img .....src.....>" (the dots can be anything, I dont care). However, after the "src" part and before the ....
I have a dynamically-generated menu, that resides in an unordered list. I want to be able to change the font styling for only one of the items (make 'contribute' red instead of blue). I thought it might be possible to explore the UL through DOM, and then write some css inline if the string matches. Does this make sense, and if so, anyone have any thoughts on how I would do this?
So I have a string which I want to use to call a function. How can I do this?. For example lets say I have a string = "function1". Now since I have this string I to use it to call code...
I'm trying to build a string based on three drop downs. As each drop down choice is made, I want to append the string and redisplay it. When finished the string will be a complete (but not hyperlinked) URL.
My drop downs look like this:
HTML Code:
PHP Code:
Here's how it supposed to work...
When an admin has used the first drop down to pick the value of the "first" variable, the string is updated and redisplayed like so:
Next, when an admin has used the second drop down to pick the value of the "second" variable, the string is updated and redisplayed like so:
Finally, when an admin has used the third drop down to pick the value of the "third" variable, the string is updated and redisplayed like so:
That's all I have. I'm stuck. I'm guessing I need an "onChange" event with each drop down? Also, I need to refresh the "makeTheLink" div when an onChange event fires? How do you tie all of this together? Is self rolled JavaScript the best solution or would jQuery be better?
I have a simple example below showing how when I pass in the value of the value attribute of option node, and then use if operator to check whether parameter is a string or not, even though it's a string, it converts it to false boolean and triggers the else statement rather than calling a function.callback should be a string so why is it saying otherwise?
I have made a basic form, and I need to combine three values within my form, then create an md5 hash of this string.Then assign it to a hidden variable.My form is here...
Or I have created a pastebin of it here, for easy reading: http://pastie.org/1171757.So I need to be able to combine the three values into a string, create a md5 of the string, then call the value of the string into a hidden value all before posting the form.
I need help with substring or trim function in javascript. Find below my code. Selection holds the value Select State, and length of the string is 14. I need to equate the Selection value to string "Select State" and execute alert message.
function selected_item() { if (Selection=="Select State") alert("Select the State");[code]....
I tried this:
var state=Selection.substring(0,11); and then string would be equated to state variable. But it is not working.
I am currently trying to build a new function in javascript that is supposed to handle a string of text. The idea is that it should find the lowercase letters and uppercase letters in a string and then swap them.
Meaning all lowercase letter becomes uppercase letter and vice versa.
So i am just asking if someone could point me in the right direction or give some tips. I've currently been reading about the toUpperCase(); and toLowerCase(); functions and i am fairly confident i know how to use them for switching, however i still need a way to find the lower , upper character in the string so i later can switch them.
How can i remove a string from an existing string in javascript. I have a textbox in a form and want to make sure that when the user clicks a button that certain words are moved, like all instances of "hello" should be taken out of the text the user typed in the textbox.
I ran into a problem that I could not fix myself, I am trying to replace a string with another string, the replace lines look like this:
Code: var word = document.getElementById("word").innerHTML; document.getElementById("word").innerHTML = wordd.replace(/B/g, '<span class="style106">B</span><span class="style107"> </span>'); It works just perfectly if left alone, but I need to replace every letter inside this string, adding those style and span tags around each and every letter. So if I add another line to this code, like this:
I have an element tag stored in a variable: var bla = '<img src="path/to/image.jpg" name="something" id="myid" />'; Is there a way to get that id from that var??
I would like to select the text of this td and replace with another string. How can that be accomplished?
<td jscontent="address" style="vertical-align: middle; width: 100%;" jstcache="9">8050 Drexel Ct, Lemon Grove, CA 91945</td> I tried with this without any success: var vtd = $(".googledir tr td:contains('8050 Drexel Ct, Lemon Grove, CA 91945')").html('8050 Blossom Lane, Lemon Grove, CA 91945');
When using jEditable to update my database and the information is send back the result is an piece of text with an small image. This is the code that writes the result back to my page:
