Javascript Search

Jul 23, 2005

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.

Search Inside Xml With Javascript (FF And IE)

Dec 28, 2006

A webpage recieves XML from the server using xmlhttp.
What I want to do is search in this xml browser-side.

XML-example:

<company>
<equipment>
<trackno>1</trackno>
<icode>ruthd</icode>
</equipment>
<equipment>
<trackno>4</trackno>
<icode>rdke</icode>
</equipment>
</company>

I want to display the icode from equipment with trackno 4.

Serverside I would have done that using XPath :
SelectSingleNode("/company/equipment [trackno=&#394;']/icode")

How do I do this in Browserside Javascript.
The code has to work in both FireFox and IE.

Simple Javascript Search?

Jan 4, 2006

I'm trying to use this script:

<script>
function QuickSearch() {

var name=document.forms[0].name;
var tempdesc=document.forms[0].tempdesc;

if (name.value="780-06") {
tempdesc.value = 'Women`s Princess Cut Vest|882'
}

else if (name.value="RA32R") {
tempdesc.value = 'Womens Rib Hoody with contrast piping|2290'
}

else if (name.value="75007") {
tempdesc.value = 'WOMENS SLEEVELESS POLO|812'
}

else if (name.value="") {
tempdesc.value = ''
}}
</script>

<form>
<input type="text" name="name" value="" onblur='QuickSearch()' />
<input type="text" name="tempdesc" value="" size="45" />
</form>

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.

How Can I Search A Select Tag With JavaScript

May 24, 2005

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.

Javascript, Noscript, & Search Engines

Apr 28, 2006

I use:

<noscript>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="1; URL=../nojs.html">
</noscript>

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?

Simple Search-type Page To Enable Users To Input A Model Number And Its Page Appears In A Inline Frame?

May 6, 2009

I am using a very simple search-type page to enable users to input a model number and its page appears in a inline frame. Its not a true search as it is simply relying on a person entering the correct html page name to find it. But this works perfectly in my application.The problem I have is that I cannot get the type box to accept enter key as a submitt, only a click of the mouse will submitt the request. If enter is pressed the box loses the users input but no action is taken.I think this may be a javascript issue. I have posted the code below.

JavaScript Powered Search Script - Results Targeting.

Dec 26, 2007

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:

I would like to find some direction or help to solve an issue I have.I would like to find a way to search for a string of content on my webpage and return the string, or at least part of the string into the URL...Example of the content on my page:-----Welcome, John Adams Log OutWelcome to your own content, based on your settings provided.

Opening Search Result In New Page

Feb 15, 2007

This script (put on your browser shortcuts bar) allows you to highlight any word on the page you are currently browsing, and on clicking, be taken to the wikipedia entry for that term:

The problem is, i would like it to open the entry in a new page or tab, but i cant work out how to.

javascript:q = "" + (window.getSelection ? window.getSelection() :
document.getSelection ? document.getSelection() :
document.selection.createRange().text);
if (!q) q = prompt("You didn't select any text. Enter a search phrase:", "");
if (q!=null) location="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/" + escape(q).replace(/ /g, "+"); void 0

Open A Page With Cursor In Search Input Box Already?

Feb 25, 2009

I want to put a little search on a single standalone webpage of names and numbers.

I'm using the code below - works a treat but when you first visit the page, you have to click in the search box before typing a string, How can I make it so that the input box is actively awaiting input upon the page being displayed?

Also as a second question.. can i make it so whenever 'enter' is pressed on the keyboard, the search button is effectively actioned/clicked so it highlights the next matching string?code...

Search Engine Redirects To Link Page

Feb 19, 2010

I've been the last few days around a script that I can't make it work. This script is a search engine, when you look for something say the word "titanic", it shows you a list of results with numbers, being the first link with the higher number (kinda like a score), and then after u click the link you want he goes to the respective page. Now I want him to skip the results page, and directly open the first link that he founds on the page.

The Script
<!-- Begin
var item = new Array();
// Just enter as many additional pages that you want to search, then fill in he additional listings for each page.
// "Page Name","path","Page Title","Many,Key,Words","Descriptive Comments"
c=0; item[c]=new Array("centerif.htm","","titanic","index,main,start,home,front","Demonstration search engine data about an imagined but probable internet site."); .....

Closing Search Box When Main Page Unloads?

Sep 12, 2011

I'm using the code below to create a pop-up search box that finds text strings on a contents page. The contents page contains a list of hyperlinks each of which opens a PDF document in the same window. The search box does exactly what it's intended to do, but the problem is this: if the user clicks on "Find next" or "Find previous" once the PDF document is open, an error occurs; the same error occurs if the user then navigates back to the contents page and clicks on "Find next" or "Find previous". I'm thinking the solution must be to get the search box to close as soon as the PDF document opens, but how do I achieve this?

<title>Search this page</title>
<script language=JavaScript>
