Ajax :: Getting The Value Of Textarea?
Sep 12, 2011
I'm having some issues with getting the value of a textarea which I fetch with jquery's ajax function.I'm displaying some comments in my ajaxcontent. All the comments have a onClick quoting link which is supposed to send the id of the textarea which is to be quoted.
<a href="JavaScript:void(0);" onclick="JavaScript:quote('x','y','z');">Quote</a>
Where 'x' = The ID of the textarea which contains the text that's being quoted
'y' = username of the user being quoted
'z' = ID of the textarea of which the quoted text is supposed to inserted into.

I'm trying to achieve something that I originally thought would be very simple, but I can't get it working....and even googling hasn't helped this time! All I want to do is update the innerHTML of a div with the content of a textarea object when a button is clicked. I'm trying to avoid having to post the form using AJAX because the button also replaces the innerHTML of a different div with the value of a text input box. Here is the code I've tried, but it doesn't work:
Code:
function previewContent(intContentId) {
var titleText = document.getElementById('edit_title_' + intContentId);
var titleDiv = document.getElementById('content_title_' + intContentId);
[Code]....
In this example, the titleText var represents the text input box, and the contentText var is the textarea. The titleDiv gets correctly updated with the current value of the input box, but the contentDiv doesn't seem to consider any changes I make within the textarea - it just loads the original content. This seems very strange to me. Is there an easy way to retrieve the value of the textarea?

I have a form with a textarea that can hold a lot of values. When submitted, a php-script takes over and processes the textarea line by line. When a lot of values is submitted, it can be time-consuming for the php-script, causing the webserver to timeout.
I would like jquery/ajax to send one or a few lines of the textarea to the php-script at a time, hence feeding the php-script with a lot of smaller requests instead of one massive one. Kind of like an upload form with a progress bar, but for textarea values instead of file submition.
I have looked around and failed to find any examples or tutorials on this, and since I'm not very experienced in javascript I would really need it.
So again, the javascript would check the textarea-field when user submits the form, and send one or five values from the field at a time to a remote php-script. In the meantime the user can be presented with a "loading..."-image or a progress bar.

My problem is very easy. I have written the following PHP code to generate the arrays of textareas:
for ($i=0; $i<length; $i++)
{
echo '<textarea type="text" name="username'. $i.'" cols="60" rows="4" onkeydown="check_username(this.form.username'. $i. '.value)">'. $sentences_data [$i]. '

I have created a simple AJAX chat that polls the server every 2 seconds for new messages. The messages are displayed in a div layer, and the user types new messages in a textarea, the only problem is that when a new message appears it takes the focus from the textarea so you have to keep clicking back in the textarea to keep typing. Does anyone know how I can solve this?

I guess the title says it all. I've generated two checkboxes and two textareas via an ajax requst. When I later on call anoter function I want to get the valus from the textareas and to know if weather the checkboxes are checked or not. But that seem impossible to be as you seem not to be able to select an element generated after the page load, or am I wrong ?

I'm using ajax to process a form. But my form has textareas in them. Its not passing the textarea values. Here is my javascript code:
$.get(
"process_order.php",
$("#order").serialize(),
function(data){
$('#loader').hide();
if(data) {
pTag = "<img src='[URL]' width='200px'><br />Order Saved";
$('#popup').empty();
jQuery("#popup").append(pTag);
jQuery("#popup").dialog('open');
} else {
pTag = "<img src='[URL]' width='200px'><br />There was an error!<br /><font size='1px'>" + data + "</font>";
$('#popup').empty();
jQuery("#popup").append(pTag);
jQuery("#popup").dialog('open');
}},
"html"
);
I just have a simple textarea section and I NEED to allow HTML code in that text area.

I used AJAX in this link code...
You have to go open the navigation box on the top left (sorry I have to simplify this in the future!) and then click the third link Compare Two Bible Texts. Once you enter a word in the first textarea and select the book, chapter, and verse it doesn't record it in the textbox underneath the verse dropdown select.
Anything wrong with this AJAX code?code...

I've got this little 'textarea' script..see the code below. Now there is something strange with it. When I disable javascript from within IE 6.0, it still seems to function well... how come ?
Also I would like to build in one thing extra.. Whenever one of the buttons B or C is pressed there is a tag placed within the textarea, like it should. However I don't want the tags to be counted up to the textcount total. What do I need to adjust in the code to achieve that ? Code:

really need some help with validating a textarea box. basically i have
a text area box that must not have more the 910 characters entered and
they must not be spread over more than 23 lines. I could check the
total length but the problem is people could enter 1 character per
line so you would end up with 910 lines.

I need to create a page that
allows users to copy the contents of a MS Word document and paste them
into a textarea. All fine and dandy...but the tabs. I don't need to
keep the formatting, just the tabs. Is there any way to detect the tabs
and change them to four spaces or something similar? If you have any
other ideas please let me know.

I'm using a third party libray and I can drag a diveand resize it. The
issue is, I have a textarea inside of it and I need to resize the width
of textarea and height of textarea along with it.
I know what the width and height of the div will be when it finishes
dragging (in "px"), so how do I convert the width and height in "px" to
the cols and rows of a textarea?

I have a DIV with various elements eg:
<div ARID="8" ARType="Char" ARDBN="Short Description">
<label class="label f9" for="arid8"Short Description</label>
<textarea class="text sr " wrap="off" id="arid8" rows=1></textarea>
</div>
I have a variable, divs, which contains the DIV's and divs[x] contains
the actual DIV I need.
What is the best (or most robust) way to access the inner textarea -
because I want to add some text to the textarea field. I know how to
add the text but want to know best way to access the textarea.

I have a button next to a textarea when they click that button it launchs another window. Now I need another button that will take a value (it will be an html code) close that window, and put that value in the textarea.
Sort of like how when you click the link button in this wysiwyg editor it pops up a window that asks for some stuff and then inserts it here.
