I have a textfield and you of course you can select text...
When they hit the bold button I want it to obtain the selected text and
bold it, the hard part is trying to figure out if javascript can even
OBTAIN selected text?!?!
I can do this in java if I have to, I know java better than javascript,
it seems as that is the only way to do it from looking online.
I have spent the better part of a day trying to figure this out, but cannot get it to work. What I am trying to do it reverse the background color of a cell with the font color and vise-versa. However for some reason I cannot get JavaScript to obtain the current assigned value of a CSS style. Code:

I'm trying to 'wrap tags' around text in a text box.
<script language=javascript>
function insertFauxTags(fauxTag, e, endFauxTag)
{
var e = document.frmAddNewForum.txtTopicMessage.selected;
document.frmAddNewForum.txtTopicMessage.Value += fauxTag + e + endFauxTag;
}
</script>
And my form:
<form runat="server" id="frmAddNewForum">
<asp:textbox id="txtTopicMessage" runat="server" cssclass="formtext" rows="5" textmode="MultiLine" width="95%" style="width:95%"></asp:textbox>

When I run this in FF I get 'e' is not defined - any ideas?

View 7 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to tell if the text in a text box has been selected forwards or backwards?If you select some text from left to right and then hold down shift and use the cursor keys the right end of the selection moves. If you select some text from right to left and then hold down shift and use the cursor keys the left end of the selection moves.Is there a way in Javascript to detect which way the text has been selected? I need to know if the "end" position is before the "start" position or after. Using ranges and selection objects seems to "normalise" the selection so that the start is before the end.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI need to write a javascript function (which will be called on clicking a button) to return the currently selected item from a drop- down list whose rendered html is below.
<select name="ddlQuery"
onchange="javascript:setTimeout('__doPostBack('ddlQuery', '')', 0)"
id="ddlQuery" style="width:273px;">
<option value="Munich">Munich</option>
<option selected="selected" value="London">London</option>
<option value="Paris">Paris</option>
<option value="Tokyo">Tokyo</option>

So in the above case, the javascript should return the string 'London' which is the selected item.
I am working on a firefox extension. The job is to sit in the status bar and as I type into any form on any webpage, listen for keyboard events, then modify the key pressed by mapping it to some foreign unicode character and then sending it to the form in focus.
As I see it, there are two ways I can achieve it.
1) Capture the event, modify it and then send it and not be concerned with the form in focus.
2) Capture the event, prevent default action., find a unicode mapping for the key pressed, find the form in focus and based on the type of form, call a method to explicitly insert the mapped character at the cursor position.
Right now I am not able to find a way to do either. Once I get the focused element, I can do something to it. But I am not yet able to get that. I even tried document.activeElement, but it doesnt seem to work in firefox.
I know this is possible to get data from a specific cell in a table on your site :
But is there any way to replace 'document' whit an external url so you can obtain data from a specific cell in a table on another webpage. Maybe like this (I know this isn't even close to be able to work...):
I'm actually not sure if this is even possible whit javascript. If not, do you know any php script whish does that job?
Is there any way to check if any text is selected with Javascript?
And then how would I add something around the selection?

Does it exist a method to count string characters?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to obtain the DIV you are currently hovering over using Jscript?
Basically I have ten thumbnails that I'd like to change the borderColor for using onmouseover. Instead of having to specifically create a DIV for each thumbnail (#tmb1, #tmb2, etc.) and then having to attach a separate function to each one (document.getElementById("tmb1").style.borderColor = "#660000") I'd like to be able to detect the DIV the mouse is currently over and change the borderColor of that.
I have over thirty pages, each with 10-15 thumbnails, which is why I'm trying to come up with something more generic.
Is it possible to copy selected text from DIV, TABLE or eg. P to form's TEXTAREA? I'm searching solution working on possibly all browsers.
