Get The Last Character Of String?

Feb 4, 2011

I had a difficult time figuring out how to get or test the last character of a string with javascript.

I found plenty of removing the last character, but not for just checking what the last character of a string is using javascript.

// create string
var str = new String("No Periods Allowed.");
// alternatively get string from field:
// var str = document.getElementById('textbox').value;

[Code]....

Well, finding that easily on a search would have saved me some time.

Invalid Character In String Reference

Jul 23, 2005

Is there anything 'wrong' with setting the value of a drop down menu
using the following?

document.frmStep1.drpInvaddress.value = 'A1020761603!>>R2'

This string is a key in our database that I have no control over and I
want to set the value of the menu according to this value because it
is unique. I suspect that the '' or the '>' or the '!' is making
Javascript think that this is a different type of data than string.

Is there a way to 'force' Javascript to interpret this as string?

Newline Character In String Constant

Jul 23, 2005

I have a form with a textarea field. I want to validate the input from
the textarea using javascript. Suppose I want to check that the user
has not entered the string:
"Hello
World!"

To do this I am using the script:
form["text"].value == "Hello
World"

But this gives an "unterminated string constant error" because the
browser converts this to:
form["text"].value == "Hello
World"

So how do I do my check?

{
var bad_email_chars="/!#$%&*+^ ()_-=|~`?;:,'"
var h,j
for(h=0;h<bad_email_chars.length;h++)
{
for(j=0;j<input_str.length;j++)
{
if(bad_email_chars.charAt(h)==input_str.charAt(j))
{
alert("you have atleast one bad character in you website address. You may not submit this form until you correct this.")
window.event.returnValue=false
form1.elements(i).focus();
}}}}

Also, How do I format with indentations and as non wraping text the messages I send to this forum?

Extract Just A Single Digit Character From A String?

Oct 31, 2010

I am trying to extract just a single digit character from a string.

my string is 'constructions-01_0'

I want to extract the very last character, the 0.

how do I do this?

Should I use String.match() or String.split() methods or is there another method I shoud use?

And what should the regExp be to get that last digit?

also separately I want to get the double digit and put that into another string, the 01.

How do I extract just that bit?

Removing Characters From A String?

Oct 1, 2011

So I've got an array called questions_raw

questions raw = [
["<Q1> Question",
"choice1","choice2", "choice3"],
["<Q2> Question",

[Code]....

And I want to list all of the questions, but not the choices/answers. So far, I've managed to list just the questions, but because another function randomly sorts them, I need to sort them back into numerical order for a separate function (displaying the questions)

I use characters (>,^) at the front to separate them into different answer types (just to explain the code)

I try this to cut each string down so that they can be sorted numerically/alphebetically -

function linearlist()
{
var list = [];
var tempStr = "";

[Code]....

But it doesn't like it - because "it has no method charAt"

Is it just that you have to put the [l] in every time you call a variable?

Store A Long String Of Text Into A Local Storage Member On A Browser - Character Data Sizes In JS

Oct 16, 2009

Lets say I wanted store a long string of text into a local storage member on a browser using javascript.

window.localStorage.setItem("key",longStringText);

Now lets assume that the text itself contains characters outside of the normal ISO-8859-1 character set (like asian or russian characters). Would the individual char values be stored as one byte or two bytes?

"hello" -> 5 * 1 bytes = 5 (normal 8859 character sets)
"hello" -> 5 * 2 bytes = 10 (unicode or an extended character set size).

Is ISO-8859-1 still stored like ASCII once was as 8 bits? Or is it 16? If I was to use a 2 byte character set then would that cut the size of my allocated local storage space by half?

Check And Alert If The First Character Is A Special Character?

May 22, 2009

I have a HTML form which takes some values including a password field. I have a JS function to check and alert when a user enters some particular special characters(this is bcoz only these characters are not allowed in the back end of the html form, all the other special characters are allowed). following is the code for it.

function checklen()
{
var iChars = "`<>";
for (var i = 0; i < document.ipform.password.value.length; i++) {

[Code]...

now i want a feature which does'nt allow the user to enter an uppercase letter or a special character(only these are allowed~@#$%^&*()-_+|) as the the first character of the password field. Since i am newbie to JS, It would be a great help if some one can help me to sort out this..
