I am creating a small CMS module for a client. I created a little form and when they click Submit, it goes straight out into an include (.inc) file, which is connected to the web page to be displayed.
The trouble I am having is that I'd like to create an additional button that will insert some text (certain html tags to make their life easier, etc) - I got it to work, actually. The script executes and the text is inserted - but once the script runs and the page refreshes (or whatever it does), the text then disappears. The only way I can seem to get it to stay put is when I use "onmouseup" instead of "onclick" - which means that every time the user accidentally mouses over the thing, it inserts the text.
I am trying to take text that is in a <DIV></DIV> and insert it into a <TEXTAREA> tag. in CHROME the line breaks are preserved however in IE I lose all my line breaks.
$("#serviceEdit-notes").val($(this).next().html());
#serviceEdit-notes : the TEXTAREA
$(this) is a 'A' linkprecedingthe DIV
Like I said, it works in CHROME, but in IE(8 or 9) I lose my line breaks.
I'm looking to get some code so that if the user clicks a textarea for the first time after the page loads, the text clears out, else if he types some text, navigates away, comes back and then clicks again, it does not vanish.
And oh, I'm trying to find something other than what I already wrote:
JavaScript Code:
onClick="if(document.form1.tarea.value=='Click here to make this text disappear and begin writing.') document.form1.tarea.value='';"
onClick="if(document.form1.tarea.value=='Click here to make this text disappear and begin writing.') document.form1.tarea.value='';"
Sorta like Vbulliten when clicking on the images, smilies, it creates "" in the textarea box. How do they do that?

View 18 Replies View RelatedI need to insert a string into a textarea, where the cursor is when a button is clicked. I tried google for this one, but all I found was how to change the text in the textarea, and how to append something to the end, but not how to insert where the cursor is. Does anyone know how to, or have a script that does this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis is what I want to know. I have a table which has the number of rows depended on what the number is in the spinner. This does work e.g If I enter 25 in spinner it comes up with 25 rows, if I enter 7 in spinner comes with 7 rows.
So my problem is this: Lets say there are a number of rows in a table. What I have is a textarea where the user enters in their question and then submits the question, the question should be inserted and appear in the first row of the table under the "Question" column, the textarea goes blank and the user enters in his second question, if the user submits this then the question would appear in the second row, 3rd question into 3rd row, 4th question 4th into row etc.
Problem is that I do not know how to do this. I have attempted trying to do it but when I try and submit my first question the first row of the table under the "Question" column outputs "[object HTMLTableCellElement]". Why does this happen and can somebody please be able to show me how to achieve what I want to achieve.

I'm trying to extent a simple news editor that my company uses. I'd like users to be able to browse the files on the server and insert a link to a given file in a textarea. I'd also like them to be able to assign a class to the link, for different file types (e.g. one for PDF, one for DOC etc), or no class at all. I've seen AJAX file browser scripts and WYSIWYG editors but none that combine these two features.

To be honest, I’m not sure whether there really is an important difference, in terms of download time, likelihood of working (if client browsers are better enabled for one verses the other), or whether there are any other reasons one should be used over the other.
For example:
