Select SOME Text From A Page And Use It As A Var
Jul 23, 2005
If I open a new page with very little text on it such as a bugmenot results page is there a way to select some of the text there and assign it to variables?
Selecting all and copying to the clipboard can be done with:
document.execCommand("SelectAll");
document.execCommand("Copy");
but I'm looking for something a little more refined.
The page contains seven lines of text and I'd like a simple way to say:
var username = [contents of line 4]
var password = [contents of line 5]
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I would like to select a text, in my HTML page. Is that possible? About the page [URL], it seems to be not allowed by jQuery... For exemple if my document is:
<html>
Hello word!
</html>
I would like to select each "l" letter and replace by L [URL]. But I don't know how to select just a text.

structure a jQuery line to replace a string within a page? Basically, I want to use jQuery to set up an environment variable, like this:
<a href="_TEDDYBEAR/images/brownbear.jpg">Brown Teddy Bear</a>
Then, on page load, replace all instances of _TEDDYBEAR with My current effort stands at:
$(document).load( function {
$(˜html).html(
// replace _TEDDYBEAR with "http://www.example.com" )

I've seen a variety of implementations around that enable selecting all or no checkboxes by using a checkbox to toggle that choice. However, I'm trying to find a way like this: I have two text links on my page: Select All, and Select None. How can I get those links to call a jquery function to select all or select no checkboxes in my form? As a little food for thought:
<head>
$(function() {
//function for selecting all or none...is there a way to make a single function that passes in a parameter to differentiate between selecting all or selecting none, or do I need a separate function for both?[code]....

i am trying to pass text from one select box to another select box. The logic is if 10 are added, no more passing must happen. Also if an item is already added, it mustn't be added again.I am using the for loop to check the existence of an item but it is not working: what am i doing wrong?
Code:
function PassSelectValues(){
//pass values from select boxes to select boxes
var counter;[code]....
why isn't counter incrementing at all? The alert message box does appear saying item exists but the item gets added anyway.

I'm trying to get a select box to display text from a database in a div tag from the select box populated by a while loop that also pulls from the database. The only way I can do this is from a javascript written by sending it over to a second page and I need it on just one page. Here is my code below:
<?php
session_start();
$q=$_GET["q"];
$num = $_GET['num'];
$test = $_GET['oneGram1'];
$_SESSION['oneGram']=$test;
[Code]...
Even if this is a wrong way to go about doing this can someone post just a simple script using a select box and displaying data on the same page?

Alright, I'm using a Rooh.It WordPress plugin right now, but I don't like the way they do it, so I want to write my own code to do something similar.
I want the user to be able to select the text they want to highlight, and the background color of that text changes to whatever color they have selected.
How can I do this in JavaScript?

When the page loads there will already be a drop-down on the page, here's an example of the drop down.
<select id="dropdown">
<option value="2121S">Option text</option>
<option value="2122S">Option text</option>
<option value="2123S">Option text</option>
<option value="2121A">Option text</option>
<option value="2122A">Option text</option>
<option value="2121K">Option text</option>
</select>
On page load it will evaluate this drop-down and repopulate it determined on their values. If there is an S in any of the values the drop-down will generate an option for 'S' like so.. <option value="s">S Option Text</option> And for the first code example in this post - the Javascript would be able to repopulate the drop-down with the following:

I have a text field (field1) already displayed on the HTML page. However, there's a link where you can add additional text fields to the page as well. When the link is clicked, the second text field is added successfully (field2), and when the link is clicked again, the third text field (field3) is added successfully. However, the third field does not add itself to the page, and the text for anything greater than a third field also isn't displayed after. This obviously means that my "fields" variable is not working right
<script language="javascript">
fields = 1;
function addMore() {
if (fields = 1) {
document.getElementById('addedMore').innerHTML = "<input type='text' name='field2' size='25' /> <span>Field 2.</span>";

Is it possible to have a text box input searching for the entered text on another webpage in the same way Find In Page would do? I have a webpage that I want users to input an item, and that this will open the targeted webpage and bring you to (and highlight) the matched item(s) like find in page does. Is this possible or is the easiest way to just make users open the link to the target page and just complete the find in page search there?

I am trying to get a java script function that will return the start and end position of a selection and the selection content.
I tried this code I found here (modified a bit)
Javascript text
And it works nearly perfect. As the comments indicate, however, it won't work with any nested elements without some "additional coding". I am just learning JavaScript, so I am ok with the basics. But the DOM tree has me baffled, and I can tell that this is the section of the code that would need to be modified.
So, my question to those that actually know what they are doing, is how do I modify the above script to allow several span nodes nested within one parent div, or is there another source for a code that might get me there?
I did a ton of searching for one, but every one I found was related to selecting within a text area, and I need to select within a parent div.

I want to be able to select a word when I highlight over any part of
the word. When I say select the word, I want it to be highlighted as
if I left clicked my mouse and dragged the cursor along the word. I
want to do this so a user when putting the mouse over the word can
quickly hit <ctrl>c to copy the word, without having to manually
highlight the word.
This will be used multiple times in the script for specific words, not
for every word in the script. For example:
User Password
------- ---------------
admin adminUser
dba sysDbAPa$$
So in my above example when mousing over either of the passwords, the
entire password would be highlighted so I can quickly copy it.

I want a standard looking dropdown select box what allows me to enter free text as well (ie the option is not in the list so the user can type in something else). I saw the UIauto complete plugin which is close but not exactly what I want.

The following function works fine provided you call it from the body's onLoad property.
Code:
function disableSelection(target){alert('in');
//disable text selection if drag in progress so we don't highlight text while dragging panels over other panels
if (typeof target.onselectstart!="undefined") //IE route
[code]...
I put an alert inside the disable function and it DOES hit it onload, but you can still select text on the page.
