While on vacation I've been writing a bunch of javascript/css text effects for fun and I'm planning to look into how I can implement my code inside a url. So now I want to know how I can recognise and grab the text from any random webpage and put it inside of a variable, my script can take it from there.
I have a function that lets me convert one character and throw an alert with the corresponding ASCII value, but what I am having trouble with is applying it to a text box. What I'm trying to do is when characters are entered the function will loop through the entered values and throw an alert for each of the corresponding ASCII values for each of the characters entered. I am trying to alert the user for every character that is out of the range of ASCII equivalent 1 - 128. Test code:
I am wondering if it is at all possible to create a button that--when clicked--grabs a paragraph of text that a user has highlighted. So you go to this website, then highlight a section of text. Once you have the text selected with you mouse, you then click the button. The button executes a function which acquires the selected text in a string. Is this hypothetical situation possible? Thank you for the time it took to read this post.
Is there a way to grab the text from inside a alt tag?I have a sitethat will have tons of span tags and I need to go through all of themsearching for the alt="" attribute then grab it.I'm using some non-jQuery javascript, so I'm sure there is an easierway to format this than what I currently have.----- html example:
I am trying to place text output from a url on another webpage.The output is the status of an alarm system.hash and mac info remove for security reasons.I would like to place these three outputs on another page.
I'm trying to grab a specific part of a string of text and am wondering how to do it (or if it is possible to do it) with a jQuery selector.Is there any way to get that specific part of the link?
Here's what I have so far, which handles characters as they're typed in. Could someone please show me how I would loop through all the values that are entered if a block of text was pasted in, and then grab the ascii value(s) that are > 128?: Code:
Is it possible to take a url from a text box and request the HTTP Response Header and then document.write() it? I'm envisaging a form into which a user can enter a url and receive the Response Header information. Could I achieve this with JavaScript?
What I would like to do is create header and footer information for my webpages which are created by calling from a referenced .js page . . . for example in Header.js:
Is there a way of doing this with java script?I have a homepage, that has to go to a certain directory, find the newer TXT file, get the first paragraph, get it formated with H1 tag, then read the rest format it with a P tag.So everytime a new TXT file is created in that directory the homepage (HTML/index.html) change.

I am using the tablesorter plugin and am experiencing the following problem:
Under several scenarios the up/down arrow icons will overlap with the text in a column's header. This occurs if the browser is resized so the table width is too narrow (e.g. plugin should force a min-width perhaps?).
More importantly, this will also occur when the text in a columns header is shorter than any of the values in the column the up/down icons overlap with the text in the column header.
I've attempted setting padding on the header columns but no success (probably because the up/down icons are set as background images and therefore have no impact on padding)
At the moment the plugin won't be usable for me since the arrorws overlap with the text in several columns.
I am working on a website that uses a random header. I have been trying to figure out how to adjust the code so that the header also serves as a clickable link.
Here is the code that I have:
What do I need to add in order for the header to also serve as a link? I am completely new to JavaScript and I don't understand it very well.
getting all the header text:jQuery("#accordion h3").text();how do you get the active index? and how do you use that index to get the active header?how do you get the header text for the active header?
Is there any way via JS to grab the name of the file that its running?
I want an external JS loaded onto a page to enable a function when something is clicked that it passes control over to another page but adds the name of the file that is currently running as one of the URL parameters.
Perhaps there is a clever way to get it off the URL?
The problem I'm having is that id GlobalList has CSS childs and when I click within the DIV if its not GlobalList then it closes out. I'm trying to see how I can modify it, so it won't close if I click within the DIV structure
I am messing around with Google Maps a little and the fundamental difficulty in building anything useful is extrapolating address information from another website. I would like to be able to use a form like yahoo yellow pages send it a zip code and get back a bunch of, say, banks in that zip code and parse the address out. Some things, very few, actually return data in the XML format, but how do you write a script that send a request to a website and then returns that request as a DOM object. I'll even take HTML and then I'll parse it out myself, but how do you do that.
I know it sounds fundamental, but I'm a real beginner in this, so if you can push me in the right direction I would appreciate it too.
Is there a way for a website to grab a users msn/hotmail contact list and send email to those users if the user wants to? Like an invite to a web page. Is this hard to achieve?
I am a lil new to JQ. I have a table and each row has a unique id like so<tr id="123">. I have a edit button in one of the fields on that row, and I want to turn that row into a form. How can I grab all the values of each field in that row and store them as a variable when the edit button in that row is clicked?
Im trying to grab certain variables like orderID & Subtotal variables that are posted to the confirmation page. The reason im grabbing these is for a confirmation pixel that is displayed for commission junction. When some clicks on their link, then completes an order,heir tracking pixel fires grabs these variables and that way they can track the order confirmaton. The problem is they dont see the tracking pixel firing and its not grabbing the variables. I dont know what to do. Here is the code.This is the code that shows on the confirmation page. Im assuming this is where im suppose to grab the variables.
//<![CDATA[ var SecureCartOrders = [ {"orderID":154983165,"name":"Max Test","company":null,"email1":"max@maxtest.com","address1":"123 main
I want to create a function with Javascript regular expressions that will grab the entire contents of a custom tag and place that into a string. Including the tag that I am grabbing.
This is what I think the regular expression should look like:
<myTag[^>]*>(.*?)</myTag>
Whats the best way to use Javascript to place the results of my Regular Expression shown above into a string.
For example:
if myString = "bla bla bla <myTag>some more text</myTag>" then I need a command that will use the regular expression to put "<myTag>some more text</myTag>" into another string var.
I think I need to use the RegExp command in Javascript but I am unsure.
I'm writing a function to fade the background color of an element, and the function I've written works for hex values, but if I do element.style.backgroundColor in Firefox it returns the value as "rgb(r, g, b)" instead of the hex string. IE and Opera both return the hex string. Is it possible to force FF to return the hex value? I could just store the hex value in the code instead of grabbing it from the element, but I'd rather it be more flexible. I haven't been able to find anything online about making firefox cast to hex, and I don't really want to write a custom rgb to hex function.
I have a situation where I need to populate form fields by grabbing information from a database when the user enters information in a specific field. I got this to work with a single field just to make sure I had the basics in place:
* User fills out "Field A" onchange event triggers Javascript function that uses Ajax to search and retrieve info from database (PHP/MySQL) Javascript function autofills "Field B" with Ajax response
Works perfectly. My trouble is that I need to do this with a whole series of fields at once, not just one. I tried using the PHP to output a Javascript array and then use the values from the array to populate the fields, but that didn't work. I got a message saying that my array was undefined. I'm not even sure this was the proper way to approach this, but it's all I could think of.
I have some DIV elements having some ID and content in it .. for example
I have submit button when I click this ... I should generate a JSON data structure like this
I need to POST this on submit button clicking.... I have seen some serializeArray() function but it works well for form based elements, I have created some string based structure in which I am printing the single quotes and double quotes like this fashion by creating a array and pushing itvar result = new Array();
Is there any short cut to create JSON with this datas ...
Im trying to validate a form (easy) and POST it to a third party WCF service. I am able to validate and POST data to the service, but its returned data (in table format) keeps opening in a blank page with their url in the browser address bar. Can't have that, I need to grab the returned data and .append it to a div on my page. Here is what I have that FAILS
<script type="text/javascript"> $(document).click(function() { //cancel form
