Search And Replace - Remove Text ?
Jun 14, 2011
I'm trying to reduce a large number of pdf files to text format. Acrobat has a batch processing feature that will convert the files, and also allows a JavaScript to be executed as part of the conversion process.
I would like to add JavaScript code that allows me to replace and/or remove certain text/characters from the file.
Examples would be:
A) Remove all double, triple, multi-spaces and carriage returns
B) Change all uppercase characters to lowercase
C) Remove all punctuation
What i'm really aiming for is to be able to run the batch process in Adobe, then have a javascript filter out all that junk within a file with X amount of lines, not just one.

The javascript below is looking for the word 'margaret thatcher' in the body and surrounding it with a link. It's lower-case but the script is ignoring the case so that won't matter. But, the problem is that because Margaret Thatcher is a proper noun, it will be capitalized in the body text yet replaced with lower-case text. How can I modify this script to look for the word while ignoring the case but use the same text it found as the replacement instead of using the text object?

My page populates a table with a list of names and other information from a
JavaScript object. I receive changes (adds, change & delete) to that list,
convert it into a JavaScript object. I do understand how to add the new
names to the list.
I have 3 questions:
1) How can I search through the table rows to find the rows to be changed
or removed?
2) How can I resort the table, so the names continue to appear in
alphabetical order.
3) How can change or remove data in the cells, once I've found the
appropriate row?

i have a implementation where i need to perform a search and replace. i will try to explain to the best of my ability. i have a variable, var a = "THIS IS SOME SOME TEXT";
then i have another array variable, var b = new Array(); which contains elements in key=value format eg. SOME=NEWSOME so what i need to do is, i need to loop through this array and if SOME exists in var a, then i need to replace it with NEWSOME. so for each value before =, if it exists in var a replace it with whats after =. and replace only once, so if SOME exists multiple times just replace the first occurence.
so essentially my final string would be, THIS IS NEWSOME SOME TEXT.

I need to search and replace patterns in web pages, but I
can't find a way even after reading the ad hoc chapter in New Rider's
"Inside JavaScript".
Here's what I want to do:
function filter() {
var items = new Array("John", "Jane");
for (x = 0; x < items.length; x++) {
//Doesn't work
pattern = '/' + items[x] + '/'
//Doesn't work either
document.body = document.body.replace(pattern,"IGNORED");
}
ie., create an array of items to look for in the BODY section of the
page, and if any item exists, replace the item with IGNORED.
Anyone knows how to do this?

I have a large string, but need to search for a specific character and replace it only if it is between two other items. Examplemystring would be something like this<parent><child1>1 & 2</child1><child2>1 & 2</child2><child3>1 & 2</child3></parent>I need to replace the & symbol in child2, but not 1 or 3. I am trying to figure out how to replace just any & signs in child2, but I need to leave them alone in child 1 and 3.I know I can do a replace(), but just not sure how to limit it to only the one I need

In a string (that contain the Flash version installed), I want to replace:
all "," by "."
"win" by <nothing>
all spaces by <nothing>
So far I do it this way:
strFlashVer = strFlashVer.replace(/,/g, '.');
strFlashVer = strFlashVer.replace('win', '');
strFlashVer = strFlashVer.replace(/ /g, '');
but I'm sure theres better way (I'm not really good with reg exp).

is it possible to combine the the following functions with each other in an array for example and if so, would someone be kind enough to show me how. the reasons are 1. to see if it is at all possible and 2. to learn so that I can combine further possibilities in the future. the first script compares user keywords from search mashines and the second replaces certain strings/paterns with others.

I have a page with three identical listbox containing items in the same order. When an element is selected from any of the three lists, the script should search for the occurrence of the same element in other two lists and remove them on the fly from all the three lists.

I have a validation regular expression: [?&-#$%():;,._ 0-9a-zA-Z] in a hundreds of pages in edit boxes. Is there anyway I can on-the-fly add two items to this list: (after a page loads)
1) A single quote : '
2) A double quote : "
Sort of like a search and replace for the ENTIRE form (html document).

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?

The artificial before and after calls in buildOptions causes trouble at least in this way.opts.currSlide will be 0 then in the next transition opts.currSlide is 0 again. Makes it hard to know the actual current slide. My suggestion is remove those calls and replace with a slideshowLoad event. This is something that will fire once when the slideshow is loaded.

I've a function for my search form. Basically when you click on the form box where it says "Enter your search here" this value disapears when you click in the box. When you click out the box it re adds the value. It works if you click return on the keyboard and performs the search no problem. However if you click the search button with the mouse it removes the search term and replaces it back with "Enter your search here". This obviously will not return the search.
Anyone know how I can fix this so this does not happen on the mouse click?
I've used jsfiddle to add the html and javascript but it is not working in there, but works if you add it to dreamweaver and look at it within a browser. [URL]
This is the code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function make_blank()
{
