Using Split / Join And Loop To Capitalize User Input
Oct 22, 2011
I need to capitalize user input from a text field by passing the data to an array and using the split() method, then then join() method and of course toUpperCase. I need to accomplish this with a loop. I only have a crappy ebook and haven't ever been in a java classroom.
Here's what I have which is not at all sufficient. I learn best from examples, so here I am...
<HTML><HEAD>
</HEAD><BODY>
<FORM ACTION="#" NAME=strn>
Enter lower case text
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="txt1" SIZE=20>
/
The following lines of code are just my attempts at guessing javascript logic/syntax
function arrays(){
for (var i=0; i<secondarray.length; ++i)}
firstarray=getElementByName.txt1
var secondarray =firstarray.split(separator[" ", 40]).toUpperCase();
/var secondarray.join([""])
<BR><BR>
<INPUT TYPE=BUTTON VALUE="Convert to Upper Case"
onclick="document.strn.txt2.value = document.strn.txt1.value.toUpperCase()"
<BR><BR>
<input type = "text" NAME=txt2 size=20/>
</FORM></BODY></HTML>
I know this much .array = string.split(separator[, limit]);.

I am working on a project which requires a method to join or split multidimensional arrays according to its arguments, which would be string delimiters for the various dimensions of the array.
An example of the join function might be:
The split function:
This would turn 'str' into an array like this:
I think I may have found the problem (but not the solution) - it looks as though javascript won't perform a method on an array which is part of another array. Firefox error console gives me "arr[0].join is not a function".

I don't understand ..
$("#form-dialog-join").dialog() is a valid function which I copied from Jquery demo. What's wrong with it?
btw, all the jquery library is loaded correctly.

I have a nice little Javascript that capitalizes each field in my form
submissions. It looks like this:
<cfscript>
function CapFirst(str) {
var result = Trim(str);
var wordCount = ListLen(result," ");
var ProperString = "";
for(i=1;i LTE wordCount;i=i+1) {
ProperString = ProperString & " " & UCase(Left(ListGetAt(result,i,"
"),1)) & LCase(RemoveChars(ListGetAt(result,i," "),1,1));
} ProperString = Trim(ProperString);
return ProperString;}
</cfscript>
Then I display the results as follows:
#CapFirst(Session.Customer.FirstName)#
It works fantastic, except for some reason on my final form submission,
if someone enters an apostrophe in the field, it wants to repeat it 8
times. So the name "O'Brien" will look like "O''''''''brien". I can
live with the second character being lowercase, but the repeating
apostrophe's have to go.

A common javascript function that capitalizes input as user types (onkeypress) no longer works as of IE9Need a function that also works in IE 9 that doesn't not change method call or interface (as it's used in 150 places throughout application).
CALL:
[CODE]
el.onkeypress = function(el) {
return c_capitalizeInput(el);
}
[CODE]
FUNCTION:
[CODE]
// Intercepts keyboard input and capitalizes keystrokes.
// Call with onkeypress="return capitalizeInput(event);"
// Compatible with both IE and Netscape/Mozilla
function c_capitalizeInput(evt) {
evt = (evt) ? evt : ((window.event) ? window.event : "");
if (window.event) {
// IE
if ((evt.keyCode >= 97) && (evt.keyCode <= 122)) {
evt.keyCode = evt.keyCode - 32;
} return true;
} else if (evt.which) {
// Netscape and Mozilla
key = evt.which;
if ((key >= 97) && (key <= 122)) {
key = key - 32;
evt.target.value = evt.target.value + String.fromCharCode(key);
return false;
} return true;
} else {
return true;
// Can't do anything for other browsers
}
}
[CODE]
How to make this work in IE9?

On a single form, I need to capture the users input on this input box
HTML Code:
<p>
<label for="Student ID">Student ID
</label>
<input type="text" name="sesStudID" />
</p>
to this input box HTML Code: <p><label for="User Name">User Name</label><input type="text" name="sesUserName" disabled="disabled" /></p> so as the user inputs to the first input box it will at the same time appear on the second input box.

I have to make an application that works on pc and apple mac.
Therefore I am investigating if it's possible to use html/javascript.
The database has 10000 records and is sequentially searched. This may
take 20 seconds or so. I want the user to be able to quit the search
and also I want the outputscreen to be updated immediately when a hit
is found and not wait until the complete search is finished.
The problem is that the click-event of the 'Cancel-button' is
processed after the search is finished. Is there something like
application.processmessages (similar to Delphi) so all pending events
are processed?

How can you join two numbers together in javascript, like you would join two strings?For example, if you have two variables, with 1 stored in each, how can I join them together, so I get 11, instead of 2?

What the join() method really does... I didn't quite get it. It said that it joins the array elements into a string, but isn't it already strings? how would you use this method...
var fruits = ["banana", "apple", "pear"];
document.write(fruits.join());
What did that do, how do use this method.

I have a bunch of input fields, each which will have a numerical value. There can be any number of input fields in the form, and that number will vary depending on what the user has selected prior in the application.
So basically I created a loop that goes though all of the INPUT fields within the form. How can I have it find the value of each field and add them all together, then return to me the total? It'll need to be made into a variable, but a simple alert with the total value will give me enough to work with.
