There are lots of javascript textarea counters/limiters out there but what I need is a counter that counts and displays the number of characters being typed, the current page number (i.e. say 160 characters make a page), and probably the number of characters left per page. No limit to number of characters typed, just count characters and pages and displays them.
View 4 RepliesI am looking for a multiple countup or age timer within a html page (using javascript). I want to display below each child picture the age clock/counter of the child. I do not know javascript well (I recognize some code) and know a little of html. I have searched on internet and nothing seems to get close to the below functionality. There are plenty of countup counters etc, but mostly count days, and those that do count age are single use only. Below is some code my friend found. That code works for one person/age only and includes weeks. The thing is that I want one page with all the children listed.
Example of Expected Outcome:
Picture John born in Thailand
John is 10 years, 03 months, 16 days, 12 hours, 14 minutes, 03 seconds old.
Picture Mary born in Florida, USA
Mary is 08 months, 12 days, 14 hours, 02 minutes, 53 seconds old.
Picture Chris born in Melbourne, Australia
Chris is 04 years, 02 months, 03 days, 01 hours, 06 minutes, 12 seconds old.
Picture Lindy born in The Netherlands
Lindy is 03 years, 11 months, 24 days, 23 hours, 44 minutes, 23 seconds old.
And the clocks keep ticking and counting up. Please note that since Mary is less than a year old, the 0 year value does not show. I also would like the possibility to consider the time differences between the places they were born and the time zone the web page viewer is in. Is that possible? Or maybe I have to recalculate their GMT (Greenwhich time zone) birth time for that to work, or maybe the time zone of the server? How can we make that accurate?
The hours, minutes, and seconds, would be great, but is of course optional. The code below also shows weeks, which is up to you to use or not. Maybe the script can allow you to choose which values to show? I would like this for at least four children, but the possibility to add more later by copying some code would be great. This is not an online form, so all time/date of birth details can be set in the script.
Here is the script I found:
<!-- Copy and Paste into HEAD of HTML-->
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
function ElapsedTime(inFromDate,inToDate) {
var inFromDate = (arguments.length == 0) ? new Date() : arguments[0];
var inToDate = (arguments.length == 1) ? new Date() : arguments[1];
// if (arguments.length == 0) var inFromDate = new Date(); // IE4 has a bug in constructors,
// if (arguments.length == 1) var inToDate = new Date(); // so use above method.
var fromDate = new Date(inFromDate);
var toDate = new Date(inToDate); .....
I am writing a function to 'expand' common postal address suffixes, such as "RD" to "ROAD", etc.
A suffix must be prefixed by a ' ' (space) character and preceded by either a ' ' (space), '.' (period), ',' (comma), '/n' (line break), OR be at the end of the TEXTAREA box.
Code:
source = source.toUppercase(); // Covert to uppercase
source = source.replace(" AVE.","AVENUE");
source = source.replace(" AVE ","AVENUE");
source = source.replace(" AVE,","AVENUE");
source = source.replace(" AVE[
[Code].....
However, if the text is: "1 Main St" (with nothing after the 'St') the replacement does not work.
Is there an 'end of string' character that I can match on?
I have a text area in one of my forms that I want to control the character size of. In short, I want to keep the text area to 10,000 characters.
What I Have Found: I have found a number of scripts that will control the character length of the text area, while you are typing.
The Problem: If you cut and paste a document that contains 15,000 characters into the text area that is limited to 10,000 characters, it will still take all of the information (i.e. the 15,000 characters), as opposed to limiting/cutting it off.
Does anyone know of a script that will control the overall character length whether it be inserted via key stroke or is copy and pasted into the text area? Or possibly point me in the right direction?
I would like to restrict Character limit on TEXTAREA box.I am able to get char limit using Jquery if it it is one textArea. limit chars for Multiple TEXTAREA in same page using jQuery Code.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {

I want to implement a text input box for SMS text messages and the messages are limited to 160 characters (including spaces, etc.). I would like the font color of the text to be green as the user types and any text beyond 160 characters to be red. I would like to do this with one input box, the same box that the user is typing in not a separate display box. This will be on the users local PC it won't be on the Internet.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if it was possible to have a variable count down in a
window.confirm dialog box. Like the type of message some systems have
to log users out automatically.
E.g "You will be logged out in x seconds. Do you want to stay logged
in. Yes No"
where the x value would count down and if they didn't press yes then
they would be redirected to another page to log then out.
I have a HTML form which takes some values including a password field. I have a JS function to check and alert when a user enters some particular special characters(this is bcoz only these characters are not allowed in the back end of the html form, all the other special characters are allowed). following is the code for it.
function checklen()
{
var iChars = "`<>";
for (var i = 0; i < document.ipform.password.value.length; i++) {
[Code]...
now i want a feature which does'nt allow the user to enter an uppercase letter or a special character(only these are allowed~@#$%^&*()-_+|) as the the first character of the password field. Since i am newbie to JS, It would be a great help if some one can help me to sort out this..
I have a character countdown that tell you how many characters you have type in the text area. But I am having a problem, I can't see to show a text or the number the character the user when I load the page. I want it to show Characters Type: 0 when you load the page, and not having to press a key to show it, here is the code I am using...
onload="storeCaret(this);"
In my application (yes I know that it's asp) I need to automatically replace a character if it is found in the textbox Is there a way to do this. this is how it renders on the page
Here is the vb equivalent:
Heres the code:
case "D": if ((Number(a1)==1) && (t.getDate()<10)) str+="0";str+=t.getDate();b
Its part of a date script. if i use
<!--
<![CDATA[
]]>
//-->
then the script doesnt work - but it is validXhtml....
Is there anyway to make a text area scroll down with the page?
<textarea name = "scrollBox" rows = "1" cols = "10">A B C D
i am using this script (jquery) to resize textareas when a user enters text. it works well. in the management system im writing i would like to also resize all textareas so that all text is visible when forms load .i.e. a user loads a form with textareas on and all the text is visible when they read the contents

I'm trying to update a textarea's value with Javascript. The code is similar to:
console.warn("Before set, value is " + document.getElementById('myTextArea').value);
document.getElementById('myTextArea').value = 'OMGWTFBBQ';
console.warn("After set, value is " + document.getElementById('myTextArea').value);
Although the Firefox and Chrome consoles show that the value property is updated, this is not reflected in the page itself.The specific function is invoked from an onfocus handler of another element. The textarea itself is lazily initialised from the same method, by using:
var messageText = document.createElement('textarea');
messageText.id = 'myTextArea';
someParent.appendChild(messageText);
Obviously if I use the console rather than let the script run it does work.
I have a simple how to question and I'm fairly sure the answer is equally simple, however I'm new to web developing and searching the web didn't help me any further either. Maybe the question hasn't been raised because the answer is too obvious?
Anyway: I want to have one classic textarea/textbox with a submit button, such that when some one enters text in this area and hits the submit button, this same text is displayed elsewhere on the page (this may be displayed in a second textarea as long as I can hide its area borders so it looks as if the text gets displayed on the page itself). Preferably, the input text in the first area should be pretty standard, but the displayed content should be larger and in a different font.
Simple question. How can I disable a textarea when a page is loaded(and re-enable it on a button click). I have tried several things with no luck. What I have tried is at the bottom. Here is mycode snippets:
Code to generate the text area
<%=Html.TextAreaFor(Function(model) model.NewestComment.Comment, 2, 60, New With {.id = "comment"})%>
JQuery Code I have tried to disable it....
<script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() {
$(
"NewestComment.Comment").attr("disabled", "disabled");
I also tried....
$(
"comment").attr("disabled", "disabled"); Neither of which worked.

I've got a form which has a couple of inputs. The 1st is just a text input and the 2nd a textarea.
I have it so that when someone types into the 1st input some javascript causes a div elsewhere on the page to update with whatever's being typed.
html:
<div class="input text required">
<label for="CampaignTitle">Title</label>
<input name="data[Campaign][title]" type="text" maxlength="76" id="CampaignTitle" />

How would i change back to the default length of textarea?
I have this comment area that after clicking submit i will append the new comment in the list of comments through ajax... i got one problem though, everything is working perfectly well except for the textarea that won't change back to it's default size...
EXAMPLE:
The problem is that the textareawon't change back to it's default size // let's say that the default size is rows=3
I'm running into a little bit of a problem with tinyMCE. My textarea is not loaded with the initial first page load but dynamically inserted in the DOM via ajax, so it doesn't display.
I've studied the documentation that comes with tinyMCE and it still kinda puzzles me what I have to do to "dynamically load" tinyMCE.
I know the question begs a question. Why? I have no control over the DB or the Forms. Using 3rd Party based web app. I have this: $(document).ready(function() {
$("#MyButton").click(function (){ $('#CurrentPageInputTextArea').load('jqloadFrom.htm #OtherPageInputTextArea');
});
});
I did try searching first but for some reason when I put this character in google search fields I never find what I want, maybe not being recognized.
here's the code
this.size=a.size||2000;
this.handle_event=a.handle_event||'click';
what is the || character(s)?
Does anyone know the escape character for & and # like in :
Update GDO_INFO_ER set V_COMMENTAIRE='B&A' where V_USERMODIFICATION='bilal123'
or
Update GDO_INFO_ER set V_COMMENTAIRE='B#A' where V_USERMODIFICATION='bilal123'
I would like to insert & and # literally in the table.

Here's the tag from the HTML source:
<A HREF="javascript:openPopWin('takeit.php?568&10&dr.+hobo%27s+scalpel',
325, 325, 'scrollbars')">
But when I mouse-over the link, the %27 shows in the status bar as a ' and
when I click on it, I get a JS error because of the extraneous '. The +s
are not being decoded - why is this one character, and is there a way to
prevent it?
I have this string: "60 105 109 103 32 115 114 99 61 34 101 108 111 46
106 112 103 34 62", and I'd like to convert it to the characters. I've
used the split method to separate it but I don't know how to transform
each number in the character. Could you hel me?
