I am building a web page to show a TCP/IP raw packet.
I need to show "special characters" on the web page I am working on.
When I say "special characters" i am talking about tabs, whitespace,
crazy unicode characters, etc etc.
What is the best way to present this to the user?
I am thinking that a large textarea is the only way to display it so it
retains all the special characters.
I am having problems with the code below (obviously) coming up with illegal character for various characters within the field name
which is: S_Gift Finder1_0
I have tried various ways of escaping the characters but to no avail.
I am unable to change the name of the field as it it comes from an external off-the-shelf package. Code ....
i don't know how to check for illegal characters for name.. i have one for username but i don't understand how to use it.. it does not allow spaces so it will not work for first and last names..

Code:
var saturday=new Date();
saturday.setDate(saturday.getDate()+6�saturday.getDay());
Gives me:
Error: illegal character and points to the '-'.
How do i replace ' string, when i try it i get illegal character error message..
I have also tried:
I have character counter for textarea wich counting the characters.
Special character needs same place as two normal characters because of
16-bit encoding.
Counter is counting -2 when special character is added like some
language specific char.
How to count specials like 1 char?
Problem:
Depending on an input value, I would like to output greek characters
(f. e. those between U+03B1 to U+03C9. One way would be to define two
arrays: one with the possible input values ("abgde...") and a second
array with the corresponding values ("u03b1u03b2u03b3...").
But I hoped I could skip the second by a computation, f.e. "g" has
index 2 in the first array, so output "u03b1"+2.
This does not work (of course). But do I have a chance to "compute"
the output value?
I have the following script which takes the url of a page, strips out the / and sets the id of the body tag.the trouble is I only want the first 8 Characters Here is the code so far:
$(document).ready(function() {
var pathname = window.location.pathname;
var pathSlashesReplaced = pathname.replace(///g, "-");

I have got a code which selects the whole text inside a div element on base of its id. But I need to modify it to select the lets say first 300 characters. Can someone suggest something. It is related to moving end of range. I will also keep trying... Here comes the code
Code:
var textC=document.getElementById(divID);
if (document.selection)
{
var div = document.body.createTextRange();
[Code].....
Only tested with FF3 , else part works fine for FF3 but need to move end point of range ... and stuck here
I have a bordered div with some text in it. Some of the text is one long string and thus runs outside of the div. The div stretches out to the width of the browser window so that long string of text runs all the way out past the edge of the scrollbar.
Is there a way I can use JavaScript to detect the width of the div from the edge of one border to the next and then convert that number into the number of characters that can fill that width?
I have a script which gathers information from a form and, if needed, writes this info to a 'preview' window. At times {tokens} are used in place of real html tags. How can I tell the script to look for "{" and "}" and replace them, respectively, with "<" and ">".
I tried using "str = str.replace(/{/g, "<").replace(/}/g, ">");" but that didn't work. The script in question is being written by PHP... thus, may be generating a syntax-based failure. Any ideas?
I am copying from microsoft word a simple word into my application(rich text editor)..
i get special characters added to it. how can i get rid of them?
how can i solve the issue?
I have this code that only allows a period and numbers to be put in the text box. The problem is that the message also appears if the text box is left blank. I don't want the error to appear if the text box is left blank. Right now I have it on a Blur so that the error message appears when the person clicks outside of the text box.

I have a input filed of type "textbox" into which I am expecting to get
currency values (ie. 199.99). Is there a way that I can restrict the
user to only entering 2 values after the decimal point?
I can restrict the maxlength to 5, but that wouldn't stop the user from
type in 1.987.
I would like to check if a string is a valid zip code via Javascript.
Length and existents are already checked.
How can I find out if the string contains characters other than numbers?
Example: 834F7
schould be false since it countains an F character
I need to set a cookie containing a Russian character string as the
value, using the construct "document.cookie = ...". The whole project
runs in the UTF-8 encoding.
The Internet Explorer handles this cookie correctly, whereas the
FireFox writes only some byte gargabe and then reads it back.
i have checkbox to call function
<INPUT TYPE = "checkbox" NAME = "AttributeValue[1]" VALUE = "Yes"
The function itself has this:
if (form.AttributeValue[1].checked) {
(more script) }
That doesn't work because I believe it is interpreting the [ ] characters
as representing array (I think).
How is syntax for AttributeValue[1] as literal value in function?
Does this make sense?
I have a problem displaying a divbox containing a html-textarea -
everything works fine with "normal" characters. However, when the
textarea contains special chars like <P> or ' , the box fails to show:
function show(divbox)
{
divbox.style.display=''
}
<div id="divbox" style="display:none" >
<form action="action.php" method="post>
<textarea name ="txt">Text</textarea>
</form>
</div>
If the Text in the textarea is for instance
HERE IS A "QUOTE"
it works fine, while
HERE IS A 'QUOTE'
produces an error
<br>-tags works fine, but
<p>-tags doesn't
I have a number of scripts that take special characters and convert them
to their ascii equivalents and them store them in the database.
However I am running into a problem that I have some of those fields are
loaded to an array and inserted into cells dynamically. As an example
the array would be:
var my_array = [ ["52","Source Data"], ["19","Body &
Soap"] ];
Then I have some javascript that creates the cell and inserts the value
into a cell text node like:
var x = my_array[1][1]; // this would be "Body & Soap"
//create the cell
myTD=document.createElement("TD");
//create the text node
myText=document.createTextNode(x);
// Appends each node following the structure.
myTD.appendChild(myText);
What I see on the output is: "Body & Soap"
What I should see is: "Body & Soap"
Anyone know how to get around this?
In a web based form I am able to make sure that there is text in an input field but I want to restrict the user from using such characters as ~ # & '
How can I modify this JavaScript below to enable this ?
if (document.form1.ProjectTitle.value == ""){
alert("Please complete the Project Title: field")
document.form1.ProjectTitle.focus()
validFlag = false
return validFlag
}
When entering the project title into another system it issues an error when those characters are input - hence the need to delete them from the request.
I want to count the characters in a string. The problem here is, the 'return key' i.e if 'enter key' should be counted as 2 instead as 1 character.
I tried few logics but none of them worked out. I tried with php ajax too. It worked fine in firefox but not in IE.
Here is the logic i used. When onkeyup call the js function.. which calls the php page by passing the string as encodeURIComponent(str).
Now, I took the string in php and counted the in the string and added the no of occurrence of to the string length.
My concern is, IE is returning 3 for return key instead of 2.
I written below javascript function to handle Unicode characters in HTML text boxes.
code for & and ' ' goes into infinite loop, is there any better way to achive this ?
function handleSpecialCharacters(){
var text = document.getElementById('Article_Title').value;
var text1 = "";
var iChars = "<>":[]{}`';()@$#%&";

My code will display 10 posts, however at the very end it will display an extra ", " which bugs me. How can I strip those last two characters.
I am using javascript to verify a text input box but I would also like to require atleast 3 characters being entered before allowing the user to search.
View 6 Replies View RelatedSo 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?
