JQuery :: Use .replaceWith To Target And Replace All Instances Of Simple Text String?
May 11, 2011
I am working on a site that has an acronym in the content that require a registered trademark symbol. This content is added via a CMS. I am currently having problems with the special character sticking when entered via the CMS textfield (it turns into a ? if the CMS page is edited and resaved), which brings me to my question:I would like to just enter the basic acronym via the CMS, like so: ACRONYM and then use the JQuery .replaceWith feathure to add the registered trademark to the ACRONYM dynamically so it will return: ACRONYM ® in place of all instances of ACRONYM that exist within a container div that has a lot of other content like so.I tried the following example and it worked in my webpage, but when I tried to change the code to replace just a text string instead of the p tag it did not work. I did not see an example of this in the documentation. So is this possible with .replaceWith and how would I fashion the code to look for the ACRONYM only? or is there some other method that is better suited fro what I am trying to do? [code]

i have phone number on the page. Let's say 0208 123 45678 and i want to replace it with 0207 123 9999. Thing is, phone number is not in one type of tag, id or class.All i can tell you, it is somewhere throughout the body tag.

I have an input box with a 'did you mean' box that pops up under it, and it pulls it's results from another php page, however when a term with a space in it, such as "I am" vs. "Im" is entered, it stops working. This is the code I'm using to pull the results. So I made a added a simple string replace to change each space into '+';
search = $('#search').val().replace(' ','+');
search.keyup(function() {
results.load('results.php?q=' + search);
});
But for some reason it is only changing the first space into a '+'; so for example: "Hello how are you" = "Hello+how are you". But I need it to change to "Hello+how+are+you";

<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

Not sure whether this is a bug, but is is certainly unexpected behaviour. When i try to use replaceWith on a <div /> instead of a <div></div> (which is correct HTML syntax) it causes, not only the div but all code after the div to be replaced. see the code here: [URL] I will make a bug report if others also think this is a bug.

I've got an image for the Name & Email field in a form I've made. On click, I've got the images fade out, and replaced with the text field. The problem I have, is having the cursor go in the text field. I know it works if the text field was there when I click on it, but because clicking causes an event to put it in, it does't act like I clicked on the text field. So what I'm looking to do is at the end of the replaceWith(#name_field), I want it to simulate a click so that the cursor would automatically be in there.
Here is my js...
$("#name_img").click ->
$(this).fadeOut("slow").replaceWith $("#name_form")
$("#name_form").fadeIn "slow"

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:

This is driving me nuts :) I need to replace all instances of "zz" with 'Z'. I can easily replace other strings such as a = a.replace(/mickeymouse/, "Z"); but a = a.replace(/zz/, "Z"); doesn't work. Must be a double characer thing?

I have the following plugin to "deobfuscate" an email:[code] At the moment I have two problems:
1.I want to being able to use other values than AT and DOT. So instead of having:email = email.replace(/ at /gi, "@").replace(/ dot /gi, ".");I would like to have something like:email = email.replace(/ options.At /gi, "@").replace(/ options.Dot /gi, ".");But this is not working. How can I make it work?
2.What the plugin does is replace:<span class="Email">name at domain dot com</a>[code]

I am running a search on my web site which uses jQuery to take the search terms and build up a URL based on them. For example, if someone searches for "chair" my URL will be appended with /chair/. However, if someone searches for something which is two words, for example "chair covers" I need the space in between to be replaced by a "+" sign so the URL will now be appended with /chair+covers/ I'm not sure if it is possible to string replace in jQuery?
Here is my current code:
function sendSearchInput(whichelement,hiddeninput,formid) {
hval = $("#"+hiddeninput).val();
$("#"+formid).submit(function() {
if ($("input:#"+whichelement).val() != hval) {
var searchval = $("#"+whichelement).val().toLowerCase();
$("#"+formid).attr("action","retail/search/"+searchval+"/");
return true;
}
$("input:#"+whichelement).focus();
return false;
});}
This will basically check that the form is not the default value (specified in the hidden field "hval") and then change the search term to lowercase and append the URK using "attr". I have tried a couple of methods including
var test = searchval.text().replace(' ','+');
And then trying to alert "test" to check it but the function just simply doesn't work.

I'm trying to learn jQuery and am currently attempting to clone a div and then find and replace part of a string. The cloning part works, but I can't seem to get it to alter the text... In the html below, I'm trying to find all instances of issue-0, issue_0, or issue[0] (whether it's a name or an ID) and replace it with issue-1, issue_1, or issue[1] (depending on the character found after "issue")

I'm trying to figure out how I replaces/removes parts of text in string in realtime using jQuery. This is what I got now:
PHP Code:
$str = 'This is a <b>test</b>. Its not going well!';
echo '<div class="element">';
echo '<span>'.$str.'</span>';
echo '</div>';
echo '<p>Remove</p>';
Code JavaScript:
$('p').click(function() {
$('.element span').each(function() {
var test = array('<b>','</b>','well');
//var test = 'not';
console.log($(this).text());
var text = $(this).text().replace(test, '');
$(this).text(text);
});
});
The problem: As above nothing happens. If I use the var test = 'not'; instead of the array part it works except it also removes the <b> tags? How do I get the array part to work and why is it removing htmltags when executed?

I've seen an other post talking about not being able to perform a .html().replace() also, but no one replied.
[URL]
Why is this? I ran into the same problem and from what I was seeing, the replace() was only replacing the very first match. My work around was pretty simple, I just keep running replace() until it was done, but I'm dumbfounded as to why this would need to be done.
while (newLastRow.html().indexOf(settings.placeholder) > -1){
newLastRow.html(newLastRow.html().replace(settings.placeholder, curTotal)); }
As with the other post, I'm dynamically adding html to the page using a template, where the replace() method is updating the IDs of the fields when adding a new instance.
What's special about the value returned by the html() method? Is there a different preferred way to do this?

I was tring to write a function to make that took the letters that a
user is searching for and making the first occurrence of it bold in
the results (ignoring the case).
>From reading javascript books and looking at posts in this group, I
thought this would work. Perhaps I misunderstood what $1 is. But in
the results, I am getting a bold $1 with IE6.
How can I determine what the occurrence of the phrase is in the
correct case?
I realize I can write this parsing the string without regular
expressions but I thought this would be cleaner.
var match = new RegExp( escapeCharsForRegExp(typedLetters), "i");
if (match.test(text))
{
text = text.replace(match, '<b>' + '$1' + '</b>' );
}
