Adding Characters Like Character 253, 254 To Javascript Strings

Jul 20, 2005

My question is:

I'm adding character 253 to a javascript string this way:

var str = ''

str += 'a'
str += unescape('%FD');
str += 'b'

Is there another way to do this. Is there a function like: str += char(253)?

JS Character Counter To 'double' Certain Characters?

Mar 14, 2010

I'm trying to make this tool for some fellow librarians who answer questions via text messaging. As you see beneath that page's text box, the catch is that the PC-to-SMS client treats the forward slash as two characters.

I'd like if possible for the JavaScript character counter to recognize slashes and automatically add 'two' to the character count, instead of just one, for each forward slash.

(BTW the reason for 155 instead of 160 is that the client adds a shortcode to our outgoing texts.)

if (theKML.toggleState == 1) {
map.removeOverlay(theKML);

Transferring Strings From Php To Javascript

Jul 20, 2005

i got this javascript-function that changes the entries of a selectbo
depending from the selection of another selectbox:

function changeBezug(selectedEntry, '$exhibits', .....) {}

the string '$exhibits' holds all the entries for the option Entry i
the first selectbox;
Unfortunately i get javascript error unterminated string literal an
the error pointer points at the first apostroph:
function changeBezug(selectedEntry, '

I tried replacing all special chars in $exhibits, even putting th
string directly into the function code with php and tried using quote
instead..

Now im out of ideas!
Maybe im using the wrong replacement for the apostroph...
i use &apos; is that wrong? i also tried ' to no good either..
what's the right one?

How To Match Non-matching Strings W/ Javascript

Apr 10, 2006

I need to match two strings that have the same content, but out of order.

For example
"hi, my name is will"

and
"will hi, name is my"

So, in this case how do i check to see that everything in the top matches everything in the bottom?

Lets take this a step further. I ran into the problem that if the strings have quotes " they mess up. So i couldn't match id="yay" even though it was part of the string.

I tried to escape it , but for some reason it was escaped as %3D%quot%22% and the other similar string with quotes esacped as %3B%.

JQuery :: Prevent User From Adding More Characters Into A Text?

Jul 2, 2009

is there a way to prevent user from adding more characters into a text input based on a validation rule(eg. you entered more than n words, you can't enter more, but you can delete or edit)? I think I'll have to programmatically delete the extra letter(s) that user just input somehow if the addition causes a violation of the rule, is this the best way?

Changing Or At Least Detecting Character Encoding Via Javascript ?

Jul 20, 2005

I have a question if it is possible to manipulate the settings of
character encoding in Ms Internet Explorer 5.0, 5.5 and 6.0. The
problem is that the default instalation of Ms IE seems to have hard
selected default encoding to "Western European (ISO)", which means
iso-8859-1. When browsing pages with some Central/Eastern European
characters these are converted to iso-8859-1 so displayed wrong.

I would suppose the "auto-select" option should be default, so the
browser can select the right encoding according to the meta-tags in
the head of webpage. But this is apparently not true.

Please, is it possible to use JavaScript or Java applet to get the
information about the current client character encoding settings
and/or change it to the "auto-select" value ? How to do this ?

Too Many Characters In A JavaScript Function?

Nov 19, 2007

In IE, it looks like you can have to many characters in a javascript function.

The content of an entire html page is put into this function...

function updateTemplate(content) {
content=content.replace(/'/g, ''');
content=content.replace(/"/g, '"');
content=content.replace(/&lt;/g, '<');
content=content.replace(/&gt;/g, '>');
Element.update('template',content);
}
it seems to cut off the content after about 2060 characters. is that an IE thing or is there something wrong with my code. FF does it fine...

If it is an IE thing, is there anyway around it?

Sequences Of Alphabetical Characters Using JavaScript

I've been looking at this for a while now and I just can't get my head around it. What i need to do is put together a program which allows the user to type in a sequence of letters and then tells the user how many times they have included the letter 'a' in their sequence. So far i have put this together but the output is totally wrong at the moment and it often either just says 1 or 4. Code:

Evaluate Last 4 Characters Of File Name Using Javascript

Dec 31, 2007

I have built a page on a recruitment website which allows users to upload their CV via ASPUpload i.e a browse button. However I want to limit the file type to just MS Word documents as I do want them uploading large PowerPoint files etc. My idea is to have some javascript which evaluates the last 4 characters of the file name to ensure it is .doc
So if they try to upload anything other than a .doc file a dialogue box will appear stating that they must only upload MS Word Document (when they click the ‘Upload CV’ button).

Does anyone know how I can evaluate the last 4 characters of the file name? Once the user has browsed to their CV on their PC the path & file name will appear in a text field called ‘CV’.

Check And Alert If The First Character Is A Special Character?

May 22, 2009

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..

Problem Display Foreign Characters In Javascript Country/region Dropdown ...

Oct 16, 2006

Initially the form is loaded using ASP and HTML and the ü codes
display the characters correctly. I have the values stored in a
javascript array so that I can more easily and dynamically change the
state/region dropdown when the country changes. However, when my
javascript code tries to add the new option and print out new region
the literal value such as "Würrtemberg" is displayed instead of
the special character.

Can this be done in javascript?

Adding ALT Tag Within This Javascript ?

Sep 16, 2001

I wish to add an ALT command to the following Javascript.

I have tried it with a ' /' /" or just " but always get an error message. I wish to add the ALT command to the URL link as is months [9].

How do I do it?

Also, I don't suppose there's any way of adding a mouseover command to the link while it is within this Javascript is there?

Code:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<!-- Begin
var months=new Array(13);
months[1]="this New Year!";
months[2]="this February!";
months[3]="this March";
months[4]="this Spring";
months[5]="this Spring";
months[6]="this June";
months[7]="this summer";
months[8]="this August <a href=http://www.augustwebsite.com August</a>";
months[9]="this <a href=http://www.septemberwebsite.com September</a>";

var time=new Date();
var lmonth=months[time.getMonth() + 1];
document.write(lmonth);

// End -->

Adding Javascript Dynamically

Dec 7, 2002

I'm currently looking at data-piping ie making server calls without reloading the page, the server returning some data to a cookie and the calling page using that same data on the page using DHTML. So far so good...

But is it possible to actually use javascript to actually write more javascript onto the page? Or, alternatively, is it possible to dynamically add a call to an external javascript file.

Something like...

document.writeln('<script src="script.js")

The idea being that the server could return functions for the calling page to use, which would be very nice for complex web applications.

If you can do this, what issues do you need to be aware of?

If you can't, are there any ways of achieveing the same things? I'm thinking of things like dynamically adding a scriptlet call to the page in Windows IE, though a more cross-browser solution would be cool.
