Apart from the normal way of writing attributes, like:
Code:
<script src="myscript.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
numeric quotes are also specified in the HTML 4 spec, which look like:
[Code]...
I know that using <a href="javascript:"> and <sometag onclick=""> is evil, but in this particular situation it is quite hard to avoid it due to external powers Anyway here is the issue itself : putting javascript strings inside HTML attributes :
Code:
<button onclick="DoSomething('string')">
Everything is fine until there are single or double quotes INSIDE the 'string' value. Having a double quote inside the string, even JS escaped leads to the onclick argument value being cut :
Code:
<button onclick="DoSomething('str"ing')">
If you replace the double quote by '"' then you don't get a double quote inside DoSomething (you could always replace " by " in JS).
Similar problem if you choose to enclose the onclick argument in single quotes and happen to have a single quote JS escaped inside the string.So, is there any other way of dealing with potential presence of single AND double quotes in the 'string' value, other than replacing them before by ' and " and then replacing them back inside DoSomething ?
Does NS 6 support offsetLeft and offsetTop attributes??
If only IE supports these, what's the alternative attribute for Netscape 6?
I have this ajax function that executes till some output is done, but it doesn't work in some browsers like ie 6 or 7, if it is bad constructed:
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have some attributes that aren't really standard attributes:
e.g.
<option additional="34">Deep Purple</option>
That "additional" attribute is an attribute that I use with Jquery to add an additional price to the item.How many browsers will work with custom attributes like that? Or will I have to use a standard attribute (Note: if I use Value it overwrites the value inside of the option).
I have a problem of escaping quotes in javascript.
Ex:
onclick='alert( "Mister O'Hara" )'
onclick='alert( "Mister O'Hara" )'
both gives me an error. How would I escape this?
how does document.write interpret "" and '' (double quotes and single quotes).what is the significance of &Url (does it signify the current url) colon : is it represented as %3A ? and backslash represented as %2F ?

Only jquery and the plugin printed above are loaded, so there shouldn't be any conflicts.

here am tryin to remove the special characters from result
result = '<bean:write name="data" />'
result = result .replace(/[^a-zA-Z 0-9+,-.]+/g,'');
but the problem is
am assigning the value to result using some different launguage so it the result of above is like this:
result = 'Parallel (10') Cable'
result = result .replace(/[^a-zA-Z 0-9+,-.]+/g,'');
noe the error comes as we can see in 1st line ' is comng in the middle of string and string will get terminated .
I'm having some problem trying to escape single quotes. basically, I got some text on the database. if text contains double or single quotes, these are replaced with " and ' respectively. I'm using PHP to alert a portion of the text, let's say "hello, y'all!", this way:
PHP Code:
<?php
echo '<script type="text/javascript">'
echo "alert('hello, y'all!');";
echo '</script>'
?>
well, the js code breaks, just as if ''' were converted to the 'single quote' character. how so?
document.write("<img src=' "+r_image[rand_int]+" '>");
could it not be just written like this:
document.write("<img src='r_image[rand_int]' />");
I am modifying a java script that has a function to validate a numeric value. I am attempting to update this function to validate numeric ranges for example =>0 to 35000.

How can I add single quotes around listObj.options[i].value. I still want to keep the comma I'm adding to the end of it. code...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find a script that basically does the following:
-I have a list of quotes
-A script that chooses one by random
-The quote fades in (through opacity). Is displayed for 10 seconds then fades out.
-Repeats by selecting a new random quote.

I use around 50 quotes in the real thing.
I am just learning the basics and am trying to figure out timing with setTimeout()
<script type="text/javascript">
document.write("<p>" + Date() + "</p>");
setTimeout("document.write('Hello There World');", 2000);
setTimeout("document.write("<p>" + Date() + "</p>");", 2000);
</script>
the 1st document.write works and the 1st setTimeout() works, but then I add the fourth line and the page will not load.
Why does it not like my 4th line : "setTimeout("document.write("<p>" + Date() + "</p>");", 2000);"?
I have major problems with quotes or apostropes copied from either a Word document or a web browser giving me box characters on my Cold Fusion MX 6.1 web pages using Access 2000 database after my Updates or Inserts.
I would like to get rid of the quotes and apostrophes on the client side using javascript.
The problem is how do I get the Microsoft quotes or apostrophe because it seems to be a different character than a regular quote or apostrophe.
Here is my attempt but it doesnt catch the "weird" Word or Browser quotes or apostrophes.
function ReplaceQuotes(val)
{
myFieldValue = val
myFieldValue = myFieldValue.replace(/'/g,"")
myFieldValue = myFieldValue.replace(/"/g,"")
alert(myFieldValue)
}
<script>
function view(text)
{
document.getElementById("textbox").innerHTML="<input type='text' value='"+text+"'>";
}
</script>
<a href="#" onclick="view('a ' " ')">click to view textbox</a>
<div id="textbox"></div>
this is an example of what im trying to do in a site. what this code does is when you click on hyperlink it shows a textbox in the div with text but single quote is causing problem and not letting it show the textbox even though i have escaped the single quote it will still not work double quote is working fine.
my guess is since i first send it to function and then function prints it so the escape i did is removed and it starts giving error and will not print textbox in the div. can anyone tell what should i add to escape and make it working i tested it in textarea its working there only it causes problem in textbox.
I'm trying to replace an element's style on the fly like this
Code:
var sc = document.getElementById("someElement").innerHTML;
scorecard = sc.replace("class="thisclass"","style="width:"+width+"px;float:left;margin-top:"+topmargin+"px;"");
where width and topmargin are values that I calculated earlier.This works fine in all browsers except IE. The trouble, I'm quite sure, is with the escaped quotes " in the arguments of the replace() function.What this seems to be doing (in IE) is just just returning the same string sc, but with the quotes stripped off of "thisclass".
It has appeared that ancient sources give a method for Numeric Date
Validation that involves numerous tests to determine month length;
versions are often posted by incomers here. That sort of code seems
unnecessarily long.
For some while, the following approach has been given here :-
function ValidDate(y, m, d) { // m = 0..11 ; y m d integers, y!=0
with (new Date(y, m, d))
return (getMonth()==m && getDate()==d) }
and it may remain the shortest code. But it does require, in every
case, the creation and disposal of a Date Object.
The following is about 50% longer in code, but about four times faster
in my system - and it seems to be right, too.
function DateOK(Y, M, D) {
return D>0 && (D<=[,31,28,31,30,31,30,31,31,30,31,30,31][M] ||
D==29 && M==2 && Y%4==0 && (Y%100>0 || Y%400==0) ) }
Note that checking for 1 <= M <= 12 is inherent, and that the Leapness
of the year is only determined if the date given is February 29th.
Also, it is easy to use only the quadrennial rule if it is certain that
dates are in 1901-2099, or only two rules for 2001-2399.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm having a problem with this script I'm working on. What I want to do is check that a user has entered only numeric characters in a text box. If not, an error message should be displayed telling the user that this field requires only numeric input.
It seems to be hitting that part of the function, but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong that the form is still posting back. Here is the code:
Any examples to restrict entering any value other then numbers in the text box.If any other key other then ther numbers is pressed the function shall not allow any thing other then the numbers to be entered.
