Finding Text On Webpage
Sep 11, 2005
How would I access the source of a webpage? I would like to get the source,
then use a regexp to find text on a webpage. For example, retrieving a
counter, or some other text that dynamically changes. I'm implementing this
for firefox.
right now, i have a web page opening that contains that info, but i would
rather have a pop up alert() that shows that info.

I want to use the values of text boxes on my HTML webpage to create a webpage URL (like below):
<script type="text/javascript">
My text boxes are as follows:
Now this all works and the result webpage URL prints to id='ID1', but the big question is how do I use this resulting URL in another Javascript section as the src="?
For example:

Is it possible to have a text box input searching for the entered text on another webpage in the same way Find In Page would do? I have a webpage that I want users to input an item, and that this will open the targeted webpage and bring you to (and highlight) the matched item(s) like find in page does. Is this possible or is the easiest way to just make users open the link to the target page and just complete the find in page search there?

I am hoping you can help me. I am finding this problem rather complex to solve. I need to be able to find the surrounding text at the mouse position. For example, if a user clicks on a word in a paragraph, I need to programmatically know what the text is surrounding the click point. The text in question is not just content text, but DOM elements read in as text rather than the DOM element itself. For example, if a user clicks at the word "This" in the following:
<table><tr><td>This is good</td></tr> then I would like to know how to get the text "<td>" just before the "This" as text, not as a DOM element. Furthermore, how can I "enlargen" the scope of my capture, such that I can programmatically get the "<table><tr><td>" part as well as the "is good</td></tr>" part?

I'd like to find certain keywords in the text of an html page and give it an underline and the ability to show a tooltip when hovered. When I try to use .text() on the top-level element, it just spits everything out, including javascript, etc. How can I go through line-by-line and do a word comparison with the keyword I'd like highlighted? I'm thinking of basically doing:
$(#toplevel).each(function () {
if ($(this).text() == 'keyword')
$(this).contents().filter(return this.nodeType == 3).wrap('<a></a>');
If that makes any sense.

Question 1
----------------
I am writing an advanced BBCode system for my forums and I would like
to be able to find where the cursor was positioned last in the text so
I could insert the BBCode there.
Question 2
----------------
Again I am writing an advanced BBCode system for my forums and I would
like to make is so that when someone puts in a [b] tag it goes bold, so
kind of a WYSIWYG editor and also for other things like [img] tags and
[url] tags. So could someone tell me how to do that. I would preferably
like it to still use the textarea tag, or at least a form component so
my existing code works.

For a personal project, I want to see if I can make a Greasemonkey userscript (or eventually a Firefox add-on) to list how far a certain ad on Craigslist is from where the user is (by the city listed beside the ad). My question is really just looking for ideas on how I can parse out the city's from the webpage text (with javascript or some other language?). Not even sure if this is possible.
The city's or ads aren't their own div elements or anything (nothing can ever be so simple) - but the city's listed are formatted by <font size="-1"></font>, and each ad is in it's own paragraph tag.. maybe I can use that somehow?

I'm trying to write a macro, but I'm lost. So say if I have an array of keywords to check for on a web page,
var keywords=new Array();
keywords[0]="You are a cat";
keywords[1]="Are you a robot";
keywords[2]="Have a good summer";
How would I make a function that checks the currently opened web page for one of the specific keywords. And if that keyword is found, then execute some action - and if not, then execute some other action?

I maintain a website for a small local restaurant. I do this with FrontPage so I know very little coding.
I have an upload manager so the owner can remotely upload a txt or doc file of daily specials to a folder on the server.
I would like to put a java script into one of the web pages that would open and display this file on page load.

The red part of the code below doesn't work correctly, but I hope it shows what I want.
Code:
<html><body>
<div id="container" style="float:left;">
my<br> dynamic<br> contents
</div>
<script type=text/javascript>
var container = document.getElementById('container');
var containerHeight = container.clientHeight;
if (containerHeight >= 100) {
dispaly("big sideBanner");
} else if (containerHeight > 50 && containerHeight < 100) {
display("middle sideBanner");
} else {
display("small sideBanner");
}
</script></body></html>
I like to display "big sideBanner" on the webpage if containerHeight is 100 or containerHeight is more than 100 and "middle sideBanner" if containerHeight is more than 50 and containerHeight is less than 100 and "small Banner" if containerHeight is less than 50. How can I make it work?

I created a web page having textbox and an update button. My need is to display data in the text box when page is loaded. After that when I click on the textbox it will become an input textbox and can enter data. when data entered completely, click on the update button, after that newly entered data must be displayed on the text box. i.e same text box will be used for input and output data.
I created my web page using html. I knew that, by using ajax i can implement the above functionality. but i didn't get any idea to write the code.

As recently as 1.4.3 $('input:text') would find input elements with no type attribute, but after upgrading to 1.5.1 that is no longer the case.
Is this a bug or an intended refactor to be more standards compliant?
FYI - this is the selector I now have to use: $('input:text,input:not([type])')

I'm try to set up a webpge that will play a live flash video on the left-hand side(got that part working) and display one slide of a presentation(jpg) to the right of the video. I would like to be able to control when the slide image changes by having some js check a text file on my server. The text file could contain something as simple as "Slide1.jpg". I will manipulate the text file with some code I've already written. Is there some simple js code I can put in my page that will cause it to check the text file every 5 seconds, and if the content of the file has changed, to refresh the image on the page with the new image? I'm try to get away from the "clicking" sound that is caused by doing a simple refresh of an Iframe.

I have a form which calculates values and gives the user a total depending on their selection in the drop down box. At the moment the value is displayed in a text field and I have got all the javascript to do this.
What I would ideally want is to embed the total in the page, rather than a text field. The total appears to the user like it is normal text in a page, only it will update when the form values are changed.
I presume that I want document.write to do this? Does anyone know how I could do this/ or if there is a page that does this sort of thing where i can 'borrow' the code?

It launches in IE and give the user instructions, then at the click of a button, launches my setup.exe. I want my webpage to launch setup.exe then go to another webpage on my CD, congratulations.html, which says "installation is complete etc". Here's what I am trying to do through JAvascript. It doesn't work. Should the first instruction be flushed in order for the 2nd one to work?
