Regular Expression Error In Internet Explorer - Drop Down Boxes Dont Seem To Be Recognised For RegEx In I.E?
Aug 30, 2011
I seem to have come across a weird issue in internet explorer.I've been working on doing regular expressions for a register form, and I've checked it in Firefox, and Chrome and it seems to work for both of them but yet it doesn't work for Internext Explorer 6 - 8.The issue is that the drop down boxes (select fields) dont seem to be recognised for RegEx in I.E. this is causing an issue for me as I want it to work in ALL common web browers as well as keeping the whole form standard.
I've pasted a snippet of code below to show you what I've done.This one below is the original one which just checks if the field entry is blank
function check(theForm)
{
var checker;[code]...
If you have any Ideas about what I can do to make it work in I.E. I would be most greatful. Also if anyone knows how to do and RegEx on a checkbox that would help me quite a bit too.

When Internet Explorer 5.01 for Windows hits the regular expression:
/(?=<)|>/
it complains about an unexpected quantifier. In fact, it seems to complain whenever I use a lookahead expression. Is there any way around this?

I have a slight problem with IE, when everything works with firefox.
The goal is to _create_ boxes using the createElement method. And then
making it draggable with the mouse. The code example below is still
very temporary, but I could not get IE to drag the created box, when
firefox does it without problem.
The drag n' drop is straight from brainjar.com. Since their code works
for hidden/shown divs, I guess it all has to come from IE's lack of
DOM support and problems with it and the used method? Is there any
solution around this problem?
I'd really like to avoid turning boxes on/off (ie, block/hidden or
visible/invisible) because the potential number of them being present
in the future page can be enormous. The advantage of the createElement
method is that it allows for light pages and a lot of client-side
treatment....

How does one find the value of a drop down in Internet Explorer?
The form below works in Firefox and Safari. But not in Internet
Explorer. Can someone tell me how to code this so IE understands it?
<script language="javascript">
function copyDescription() {
document.myForm.Description.value=document.myForm. MakeDescription.value
}
</script>
<form name="myForm" id="myForm">
<SELECT name="MakeDescription" onChange="copyDescription();">
<OPTION selected value="">Choose</OPTION>
<OPTION>A</OPTION>
<OPTION>B</OPTION>
<OPTION>C</OPTION>
</SELECT>
<br /><br />
<input name="Description" id="Description" type="text" />
</form>

my site seems to be working perfectly on firefox but when I access it on internet explorer everything loads fine but there is a yellow marker on the status bar of IE saying there are errors on the page. I copied the source into dreamweaver to check for browser specefic bugs but the only bugs that came up were that in Netscape. So any idea why this is happening? The link to my site is in my profile.

I have a problem with the javascript (I'm using jQuery) in a facebook application in internet explorer 7:[URL]..In the background some facebook like iFrames are loaded and when the user clicks on one of those attractions on that map the attraction should zoom out and the like buttons of this attracion should appear. I have only a very old pc with msie 7 running and it seems to load those iFrames again and again and nothing else works. I doesn't have any other debugging tool then IE Developer Toolbar but that doesn't seem to show any javascript errors or information.

I have client-side javascript that is using AJAX to receive JSONs from a server-side database-querying php script. My application is working fine in firefox and chrome. IE8 is giving me trouble, however. The error I get is:
Message: 'JSON' is undefined
Line: ###
Char: #
Code: 0
URI: http://...
Does anyone know if their is a different function or library include I need for IE8 in order to work with JSONs, more specifically JSON.parse()?

This piece of code is used for an AJAX function, it works perfectly well in all other browsers than internet explorer.
// JavaScript Document
// store xmlhttp in a variable
var xmlHttp;
function xmlHttpRequestObject () {
// assume we're working with a newer browser
try {
xmlHttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
}
catch(e) {
// assume IE6 or older
try {
xmlHttp = new activeXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
catch(e) { }
} .....

I am using HAPedit for HTML/Javascript and it used to work alright by clicking Display -> Browse with -> Default Browser(Internet Explorer). But since last one or two days it gives the following error:
"The page cannot be displayed"
and the following is shown in the URL bar
[URL]
But, however, if I navigate to the file by using File -> Open of the IE, the result is shown correctly.

I have dozens of pages on my website which have just started showing an 'Error on page' message at the bottom left of Internet Explorer 8.0. These messages do not appear when using Mozilla Firefox. My website is www.lakesandcumbria.com and an example of a page showing the error message is [URL] which contains a javascript drop down list. All other pages using this type of drop down list are showing the same error message (dozens of them).

I'm trying to set up a quick poll using AJAX which all works fine when using Firefox but running into issues via IE.
$(function() {
$('.error').hide();
$(".button").click(function() {[code]....
The issue I'm having is that although the form is being processed OK with data being captured in the database, once the form is submitted, the above script just seems to stop the rest of the page from loading. This only happens on IE and it must be something to do with the success function but as I'm new to JavaScript I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

So this works just fine in FF. In IE7 I am getting this error. I can see my content load in the background, when I hit ok it takes me to a page cannot be displayed page. If I comment out:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/moodalbox.js"></script>
It doesnt present that error, but that is obviously not an option. Here is my code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />[CODE]......

I am looking out for a regular expression that takes the following format
textfile_20060711_113441.txt
where
textfile = name of the file
2006 = year
07=month
11=day
11=hour
34=minute
41=seconds.
.txt is extension
The file always comes in the same format. however we need to implement checks so that user doesnt enter invalid month/day/hour/minute etc.
I have created the following regular expression
textfile_(?<Year>(?:d{4}|d{2}))(?x)(?<Month>d{1,2})(?<Day>d{1,2})_([01]?[0-9]|[2][0-3])([0-5][0-9])([0-5][0-9]).[a-zA-Z]{3}
Can anyone guide me as to how do i modify this regex to suit my requirement. This regex currently is not able to handle invalid months or days etc.
Also i do not know how to integrate this regex in my javascript. Pointers or examples will be helpful.

I have seen lot of reg. expession with ?:
For dummy eg
(((XXX)ddd)ff)
The above expression is modified as
(?:(?:(XXX)ddd)ff)
Although both the above expr. gives same result. (RegExp.match() gives
same o/p), most of the places , i have seen second option.
Yes, but different matches r shown (using RegExp.exec())
Is the second expr. most efficient or in particular scenarios?
Any comments???

At the moment my code is like:
function telValid(inString) {
var regexp = /^[0-9 +()]+$/;
return (inString.match(regexp,''));
}
which is use to validate phone numbers (UK at the moment)
this works ok, but wont allow - (Dashes) which i need..
tried doing:
function telValid(inString) {
var regexp = /^[0-9 +-()]+$/;
return (inString.match(regexp,''));
}

regular express to get the file name from a URL?
It has to be flexible in that the extension can be either 4, 5, or 6 chars (.php, .html, .shtml for example) and needs to cater for and whether querystring parameters exist too.
So, both
[URL]
and
[URL]
The regex should return newthread for both.

what will be the regular expression for this line:
Code JavaScript:
var id = $(this).attr("href").substring( $(this).attr("href").lastIndexOf('#'), $(this).attr("href").length);
Basically it gets the string after # in href attribute of clicked anchor tag.
