Replace Smart Quotes And Not HTML?

Jun 2, 2009

I'm using this rich text editor. Whenever a user pastes rich text from a program like Microsoft Word, the program's smart quotes are not understood by the browser (they appear as a diamond with a question mark in it). I ran a php function on the post value to replace all quotes with ascii characters, but realized that it also replaces the quotes present in the html generated by the javascript.Is there a way to convert smart quotes to normal quotes without also tampering with the html content?

Use Replace() With Quotes IN The Arguments?

Sep 15, 2011

I'm trying to replace an element's style on the fly like this

Code:

var sc = document.getElementById("someElement").innerHTML;
scorecard = sc.replace("class="thisclass"","style="width:"+width+"px;float:left;margin-top:"+topmargin+"px;"");

where width and topmargin are values that I calculated earlier.This works fine in all browsers except IE. The trouble, I'm quite sure, is with the escaped quotes " in the arguments of the replace() function.What this seems to be doing (in IE) is just just returning the same string sc, but with the quotes stripped off of "thisclass".

Double And Single Quotes In JS Inside HTML Attributes?

Jul 2, 2010

I know that using <a href="javascript:"> and <sometag onclick=""> is evil, but in this particular situation it is quite hard to avoid it due to external powers Anyway here is the issue itself : putting javascript strings inside HTML attributes :

Code:

<button onclick="DoSomething('string')">

Everything is fine until there are single or double quotes INSIDE the 'string' value. Having a double quote inside the string, even JS escaped leads to the onclick argument value being cut :

Code:

<button onclick="DoSomething('str"ing')">

If you replace the double quote by '"' then you don't get a double quote inside DoSomething (you could always replace " by " in JS).

Similar problem if you choose to enclose the onclick argument in single quotes and happen to have a single quote JS escaped inside the string.So, is there any other way of dealing with potential presence of single AND double quotes in the 'string' value, other than replacing them before by ' and " and then replacing them back inside DoSomething ?

Smart Substring

Sep 9, 2007

If I have the following variable which contains the drop down menu for list of card numebrs:

var abc='<option value="1234567890123456">1234567890123456</option><option value="0987654321987654">0987654321987654</option><option value="0147852369014785">0147852369014785</option>'

How can I pass this variable to a function and mask only the dispalyed card number? i.e. to have the following result:

<option value="1234567890123456">1234XXXXXXXX3456</option><option value="0987654321987654">0987XXXXXXXX7654</option><option value="0147852369014785">0147XXXXXXXX4785</option>

Note: the number of options in the drop down menu may varry, in this example its only 3 options, it might be more or less, this is why I called it "Smart Substring".

Making A Smart Regex

Dec 14, 2005

I am trying to write a regex that will parse BBcode into HTML using
JavaScript. Everything was going smoothly using the string class
replace() operator with regex's until I got to the list tag.
Implementing the list tag itself was fairly easy. What was not was
trying to handle the list items. For some reason, in BBcode, they
didn't bother defining an end tag for a list item. I guess that they
designed it with bad old HTML 3.2 in mind where you could make a list
by using:

<ul>
<li>item 1
<li>item2
</ul>

However, I need to make this XHTML compliant, so I needed to add the
</li> tag into the mix. Unfortunately, the only way to find where to
put it is to find the next[*] (<li>) tag or an open list (in the case
of nested lists) or close list tag. I was trying to get a rule that
handles the list items to work, but it only matches the first item in
any list. Here is the line of code:

bbcode =
bbcode.replace(/[list(=1|=a|)](.*?)[*](.*?)([*]|[list]|[/list])/g,
'[list$1]$2<li>$3</li>$4');

First, I check to make sure that the list item is inside a list. Then,
I match the[*] tag to find the start of the item, then I match either
the next[*],, orto determine the end of the item.
This successfully prevents a list item outside of a list from being
made into a <li> element, but only matches the first list item in a
list. Is there any way to make this match all occurances of this
pattern without looping over the statement until the pattern can no
longer be found?

Building 'smart' Forms With DOM 2

Mar 14, 2003

I'm fooling around with building a form that grows depending on the users input (relatively new to DOM 2 - but fun stuff!) I'm working on getting it to work (rather than being pretty - there are many improvements that could be made).

My question is has anyone seen any similar examples out there? The more I build on this thing, the more I believe there has to be another way... (like rather than creating every pull-down box - yes, I should put that into it's own function! - should I be playing with visibility and positioning?) Code:

Is the JScript applications somewhere that will perform this logic?

Smart AJAX Autosave?

Dec 5, 2006

I have an autosave feature that, well... autosaves every minute. Now I could very well become the biggest abuser of my own feature. I currently have 8 windows open - I tend to just leave windows open for a long time. As a result, the javascript would be running every minute saving, creating unnecessary load on the server.

How could I make the autosave smart and only save if they are actively "working" with it? The only thing I can really think of is to have like a variable that sets to true whenever something happens, set to false whenever it saves, and only save when the var is true. Problem is, I have a lot of functions for events that I would need to attach it to... I'm sure I would miss it somewhere.

JQuery :: Replace All Text In HTML Containing Hello

Sep 22, 2011

I want to replace all text in the html that contains the word "Hello" to "Hi" (quotes not included and not case-sensitive). Here's what I've made:
if ($('body:contains("Hello")').length > 0) {
$("*").each(function () {
$('body').html($('body').html().replace('Hello','Hi'));
});}

Without the:
$("*").each(function () {
It only searches for the first word so I added the line above to search within all elements (If this is correct). But the problem is, I notice that the line I added seems to cause the page to run slower than usual. Is there any other way to do this?

Replace Text In HTML Code Generated By JS?

Apr 16, 2009

JavaScript learner, first time poster. When I grow up, I want to be a JS guru. In the meantime, if I had hair, I'd have pulled it out yesterday. I've been working for a few days now, trying different techniques to perform what I think should be a simple function. Here's the situation:

I have an HTML page:[URL]... ...which calls a function in a JS file on another server [URL].. which I did not write, nor can I change. The JS file determines the date and time, checks it against a list of conditions, then displays one of two gifs indicating whether or not an online help person is expected to be online, based on the date and time.

The list of conditions in the JS changes from time to time (holidays), so I want to continue calling the JS but the problem is the graphic it references does not fit into our available space for it. The function within the JS:

JQuery :: Why Does String Replace() Not Work For The Results Of The Html() Method

Aug 13, 2011

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?
