Searching For A String Inside Of An Array?

Dec 13, 2011

I am trying to search an array for a string and then if it is found alert it. I have found examples of how to iterate the array and how to use .IndexOf to return a true false statement as to whether the array includes the string, but i don't know what to do after that and how to display the string if its found.

Searching For Multiple Words Within A String Or Array?

Nov 6, 2010

How would one search for more than one one simultaneously? I have this function:

var flix = ["Any items left unattended on this table" , "Hello, World"];

function Multiwords(s){
var a = flix[0].toLowerCase();
var b = s.toLowerCase();
var result = a.indexOf(b)
if (result >= 0)

[Code]...

It's pretty basic, it just searches through the first index of var flix and tells me if the parameter (s) is 'found' or 'not found'. I made it not to be case sensitive. However, how would I search for multiple words for example:

Multiwords("ANY items This") and if any combination of 'ANY' or 'items' or 'This' is found, i still get my alert message of 'Found'?

Searching For String Starting With Expression?

Nov 29, 2009

I'm having a bit of trouble with javascript... I'm searching for a string that starts with another string

code:
for (x in products ){
s = products[x].id.toString(10);
v = "/";

[Code]....

the variables are integers but since i'm searching for the beginning only i turned them into strings...

the problem occurs when I add the  it turns out gibberish..

p.s. if there is a faster way to do it without turning the variables to string also would be great to know.

Sorting Words And Searching A String

Oct 23, 2005

I am working on a little project where I have a form that allows a user to input a sentence that will be sorted alphabetically when they click sort. The result should be displayed in the Output box at the bottom. Then They should be able to enter a string that will be search from the previous sentence entered and that search will display in the output as well. Then last they should be able to enter in a replacement string; however, I have not done much reading on that so I am completely clueless there.

I thought I would start with the small stuff and last I would work on the replacement string. So I have the form done, but I seem to be struggling with the functions. I think I should use aname.sort to sort the words in ABC order. I am wondering if I am just completely off on how I am trying to do all of this. Any tips would be great, just to maybe point me in the right direction. Code:

Searching Through An Array?

Aug 18, 2009

- Asks the User to select a date (year, month, day) via drop-down boxes- Converts whatever the user inputs to a formal that will match a string value found in an imported array in a .js file... And what I'm having trouble with:- Searching through the imported array for a matching value- Printing whatever block of the array matches the value, as well as any others that also match the value.

For starters, because the array I'm working with is enormous, I'll just make one up here that is still in the same format. In working with the main code, assume that this is the cdr.js file:

var cdr = [
{
"callid": "Guest User1",
"start": "2009-05-11 15:08:40",

[code]....

I've essentially left the section where the search code needs to be blank as I'm not even sure where to begin.

Confirm/Searching/Counting An Array?

Oct 28, 2009

I feel stupid for asking a question about searching arrays, when there's a very similar thread that has been answered just recently on the first page; however, I'm still having trouble contemplating my own scenario.Basically, my program prompts the user for the length of the array and then asks the user to fill the array with words.I want to confirm if the user wants to search the array for those words. If so, the user will then be prompted to enter the word he wishes to search for; if found, the location of that word will be reported and the number of times the word has been searched for will be kept track of in a separate array.Here is what I have so far:

/* -- phase 3 ------------------------------------------------------
search for words the user asks for
*/

Sorting Objects Inside Of Multidiminsional Array For Main Array?

Apr 25, 2011

I am really hoping someone is willing to take the time to read this post and take a minute to take a look at my code. What is happening is there are some matches for a script I made and then an area for segments during an event. If you notice on the segment part of the form is that there is a dropdown that asks for where in the event that segment needs to go. With the Introduction or the different numbered matches. What I need to happen for a subArray I need it to take the introduction, all the matches, and all the segments and order them accordingly. With the introduction first, the matches in order based off there match number and then the segments in between the introduction or matches based off the user's input.[URL]..

Process String Formatted As Array Into Array?

Mar 18, 2011

I get strings in this format:

([{"result":"-1","message":"Error","target":""},{"result":"-2","message":"Access Denied","target":""}])

this string will evaluate to a 2D array if I do this:var array = eval(string);But eval is not very safe.Is there a way to achieve the same effect (turn that string into 2d array) without using eval function?And I have no control over what string I am given, so will have to process this kind of a string =Right now I am thinking of writing a custom function which will split the string and then split again etc, but is there already something that can do this job?

RegExps : Grab Number Inside Of String

Oct 18, 2007

I'm looking for a way to grab a number from a string, although this number
is not at either end of the string.

Here is the string in question: var el = "v4Function_Name('argument3')"

Here is a substring that returns the number ( the 3 ) successfully...
var number = el.substring(el.lastIndexOf("ent")+3,el.length-2);

Seems very ineffecient to do it this way, and better to find a lean elegant
way using replace(); How does one go about getting a value inside of a
string with regular expressions? .. or is there a better way?

Here are a couple of the many expressions I have failed with...

var pat = /^[^ent][0-9]*$"/;
var pat = /v4Function_Name('argument([^0-9]+)'/;
var number = el.replace(pat,"");

JQuery :: Manipulating Dom Elements Inside A Html String?

Oct 9, 2011

I am having troubles manipulating DOM elements inside a variable. I have the following code:

var
$content =
pages[pageId].page;

Inside this html string there are multiple id's that I have to change. The .each finds the rightelements and the manipulation seems to work when I do a console.log onwidgetElement.However the actual $content remains unchanged. I probably made a very obvious mistake but I can't find it.

Make An Array Inside A Loop?

Feb 10, 2011

I have this loop:

for (var j = 0; j < gmarkers.length; j++) {
gmarkers[j].hide();
elabels[j].hide();
map.closeInfoWindow();

[Code]....

which was useful for passing the p variable when it was just one number.

but now I need to get that number every time j gets set (I understand that the j gets overwritten each time the loop goes through).

What would be ideal is if p could become an array, the contents of which match the values that j has passed though during the loop cycle.

I thought var p = new Array (j); minght do the trick, but obviously not...
