I have written javascript function to search for all the first columns
of html table with the text entered in a text box. The program is like
a type-ahead kind of feature.
When i type "A", i have nearly 600 documents matching and so showed up
in 600 rows in table.
Now if i type "Ap" then it is searching for 600 rows for the matching
name, and its taking a lot of time.
Is there any other approach of getting filtered data through js. I
achieved what i should but taking a lot of time.
I'm am going write a file to the users hard disk using Java, but I want to be able to let the user select what directory they would like to save the file to.
Is it possible to use javascript to open a search dialog where the user will specify the directory?
to do a simple javascript search, I want to be able to enter say "RA32R" in the name box, and have the description come up, my problem is that it seems to just jump to the first value, even when nothing has been entered into the name field.
Does any of you know how to create a drop-down list that allows the user to search the drop-down list using two characters, that is, the user will click on two characters of the keyboard which will be the first two characters of the word they are searching for in the list, which will be match to the first two characters of the the first word that has those two characters first. For instance, we are use to searching in a drop-down list using one character which matches to the first letter of the word first word in the list in alphabetic order.
Now, what I am looking for is to search with two characters; which will match with the first two letters of the words in the list in alphabetic order.
to detect if a user doesn't have javascript enabled with they hit pages that require javascript. The problem is that search engines follow this, so the content for my javascript pages show up as my "javascript is not enabled" page.
If I add <meta name="robots" content="index,nofollow"> to the noscript block, will that solve my problem, or is there a recommended way to do this?
I have a search field on the website, and when I type a word to search, it search good, but after preforming the search, the search term from search text field disappears and become the default 'Search' word.
How can I make search term stay in search field after preforming a search ? For example, when I type into the search field 'JavaScript' I want that term to stay in search field and after the search is done.
I have been working on a Javascript powered search engine for a set of browser based user guides. I can't use any server-side languages as it will all be accessed from a network drive, which as been a real pain as I would rather have just made a php search engine, but whatever...
I have a working JavaScript search function, currently the results are displayed in the same window/frame as the search form.
All i need is to be able to target the results to a different frame. For example, I'll keep the search form in a top frame, and some information in the bottom frame. Submitting the search form will display the results in the bottom frame. Its giving me a headache, I'm sure it is remarkably simple. Code:
Now i just want to edit one thing, when you search for something, results are shown under the search field, when you click on each result, goes to a link.
I want when clicking on a result, not going to link, just show that result string on the search field. where should i edit in script?
I have created a similar smart search like yellowpages:[URL]... Here is the problem I have with mine:
Lets say I search 'Attorneys' I start typing 'Att' ... then 'Attorneys' shows up in the smart search so I click on it and press enter. The next time I start typing 'Att' my browsers saved search field pops up over the websites smart search. Here is an image which might help explain the problem a bit more:
I have chosen to use Google Custom Search with my website and was given the following code, my question is, how can i pass a search query from my homepage which has a standard form on there to the search page which holds this code?
I am given a search box within this code but would prefer to use my own on the homepage...
I have a website that I'm designing where I have the need to search multiple sites at specific times. By this I mean that In some cases, we would want to search only the internet using google, or only search the site that I've created (which currently uses the jse_search.js solution), or only our company's website.
I currently have four different search boxes that will search either the internet, the internal site, a separate internal site, or a third-party website, which all working fine. The problem is that the search boxes take up quite a bit of space, and the layout is becoming cumbersome. Is there a way in Javascript I could use a single search box and a drop-down list to select which method to use? The code I'm currently using is below. With the exception of the Google search function, I've modified some of the site names to general site names and paths to preserve the company's anonymity:
Code in the <head> tag: <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript" src="jse_form.js"> </script> Code in the <body> tag: <!--Begin Internal Site Search 1!-->
I have a page built in Sharepoint. I need to create a little search box within that page so people can search for names on that same page. It's a page with a lot of text, hence why the search feature is needed.
I wish to have a search page on my website, so that the website user can search for items on my site, and list the results in another page, how would I go about carrying this out, I would like to set this up before publishing it to the web.
I'm not a web developer (I write in DELPHI and C++), but I was asked to help with the little problem which is based on javascript (never touched before now).A problem is to write a search engine in JavaScript only (The "application" works only on HTML and JS files). For easier explanation I'll change a topic of the problem and instead I'll talk about countries.There is a map of the world. All the countries are included in the JS file which looks like this (it's only a little piece):[code]And now I have a list (jpg files) and when I touch the flag or country's name It's highlighted on the map. Now I want to create a search engine which works in the way that instead of country names I have an alphabet button and the textbox. If I press a letter "N", I want to list (in [for example] the LISTBOX item) all the countries which the first letter is "N". Then if I press "I" I want to refresh the list and get all the coutries which begins with "NI", and so on. After this I'll do links which permits to click on the search result and show the listed countries on the map.I can't do this, and unfortunately can't tell that I don't know HOW, bcause I promissed to do this in 3 days, but it's too hard for me to do this in JS.
