Display Variable Value In Javascript Having Single Quotes
Sep 28, 2007
I am having problem to display variable that contains single quotes in its value(res= "msg='error'")value in javascript.I am geting only "msg= " in display.But if i open the jsp code there i got "msg='error' " Any one who know what is the problem please let me know.
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 ?
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:
<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 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 ?
I have a long paragraph which contains almost 2000 words.I want to extract all those words or group of words which are in single quote e.g.In the below sentence, I want to extract 1. is 2. important and 3. topic.This 'is' very 'important' 'topic' to discuss.Any body have any idea how to do this in javascript.

(Note that I have put / in above where there is really a just so that it shows up in the post). The link works fine with normal characters in the variable $name, and it works with single quotes in the varable, but not double quotes (the addslashes() escapes single and double quotes with a backslash). Why doesn't the link work with double quotes in the variable?
At my job I constantly need to be up to the moment on the weather, and I want to create a display that will combine important elements from different weather services onto one screen that I can hang on the wall. What are need are basic <div>'s from several different sites. I know I could use iframes but I don't want to display entire sites, just the elements I need from them. Then I want to be able to have some DOM control over them (e.g. setting refresh time for each element).
I am trying to display the year in two columns vice the single column. I know I need to create some master table, but the more I mess with it the worse it gets. display the previous and following year in the same format. Here is the code.
I have a switch/case statement, and when a case is tripped, I'd like to send a name and value to a processing page. I'm very new at jQuery with no javaScript background.
i am editing a javascript game and im trying to get a heading (h1) to display the value of a variable in a javascript function however everything i have tried always causes an error.
I am fairly new to coding HTML with Javascript. I am hitting my head onto the table because i cannot figure out how to pull the variable value out in a document.write statement. Basically, I am calling a function to give me a random number between 1-4. I use that randomNumber to attach to different .jpg, descriptions, and URL's. So far, i have only got the image to display, but unable to get the link and description to display. Basically, i am trying to diplsay random ads and links like the one at the top of this page.
p.s. I know I am getting the randomNumber out of my function becasue I can call a simple document.write(randomNumber) and it works. Substitute adDesc and adURL in place of randomNumber and I also get the description and link respectively.
On my site there is information that changes several times a year and I want to make it a lot easier by having it change on all my pages at once. For instance the delivery time may change from 1 week to 2 weeks depending on the time of year. What I've come up with so far should work, but I don't know how to finish it, or if it's the best approach for my problem.
Since the sections I want to change frequently may have a bit of text I would link the template of my site to the external JavaScript file external.js. In that file I would declare the variable and assign it a value related to the shipping time (see below). code...
my spring mvc controller dumps a map variable to the jsp page.MyController.java

there is a single selector in the jsp page. which has two options "optionGroup1", and "optionGroup2" respectively.when user click optionGroup1, value of ptionMap.optiongGroup1 will be inserted in a multiple selector
I'm trying to make a basic rss reader with a google reader-esque functionality of clicking on article names and being able to expand/collapse that article. I'm working on the expand part and am going crazy. I am having no trouble getting content and displaying it without the onclick function but when I try to integrate onclick I can just get the titles.
$displaytext = "display this text"; $(".image").mouseenter(function(){ $(".test").text("$displaytext"); });
I would like to display the text in the variable $displaytext in my div.test when I mouse over the .image div. But instead, it just displays "$displaytext". Anyone know how I could make this work?

We are using a cookie (written in javascript and url encoded and decoded) to store form variables so that when the page is reloaded we can keep the form variables. We are having a problem with the email address field - the cookie only returns the email address up to the @ symbol and we have narrowed it down to the regexp function....
When a person signs up for my website it first adds them to my external email list and then to my MySQL database.In order to do this you have to pass the information of the form to the next page where you can "display" it. Nothing except this display function seems to work.So what I am trying to do is take what is outputted by this display button and store it in a javascript variable. Then transfer this variable to a form which will auto submit and start the PHP registration pulling the output of the script, right now I can either get an undefined or the entire HTML code. Is there another option?Here is my code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd" >
I have a question in javascript, that is, is it possible to display a value of an variable in another html page when a button is clicked?For example, i set a value in page_1. html as abc=5 and when a button is clicked the value of abc should be displayed in page_2.html.
