JavaScript - How To Get Receive A String.

This is probably easy if I knew Javascript. Can someone show me the code to get the number "800014352" part from the url????

http://testebiz/ebizbtest/ShoppingCa...2/Default.aspx

I am trying to use some string functions with no results. It appear what I'm using them on are not strings.

my_string = document.getElementById("link5").onclick;
document.write(my_string.lastIndexOf("5"));

This gets nothing! And document.write(document.getElementById("link5").onclick.lastIndexOf("5")); gets nothing. BUT if I make a string and put what the onclick is set to with:

my_string = "function onclick(event) { reveal(\"5\", \"2\", \"1864\")";
then
my_string.lastIndexOf("5") will yield 34.

So why is my original my_string = not working? And how can I get it to work?

Hello,
I have the following Javascript function:
Code:

function loadReviews(){
	var url='http://search.twitter.com/search.json?callback=?&q=test';
		jQuery.getJSON(url,function(json){
			jQuery.each(json.results,function(i,review){
				jQuery("#divroller_container").append('<div class="reviews" id=item'+i+'>'+review.text+'<br>Reviewed By: '+review.from_user+'</div>');
			});
			start(30000, 1);
		});
		
}

I'm trying to use this in a PHP page. I tried to make do an echo ' and then display the Javascript but I'm struggling on how to convert the following line to PHP to that it still works like it should in Javascript:
Code:

jQuery("#divroller_container").append('<div class="reviews" id=item'+i+'>'+review.text+'<br>Reviewed By: '+review.from_user+'</div>');

I still need the Javascript variables to function the same etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I need your help.

Let's say for example if I have the following file number: 2011-1234567 and if the value of the variable is already the same (ie. var fileNo = 2011-1234567) how can I go about automatically adding a number at the end?

ex.1.)
var fileNo = "2011-1234567"
if (fileNo already exists) { fileNo = 2011-1234567-2 }

ex.2.)
var fileNo = "2011-1234567-2"
if (fileNo already exists) { fileNo = 2011-1234567-3 }

ect.

Much thanks and appreciation for all your help.

My problem is relates to getting part of the text from a div, then pass this on to a variable which then acts upon it.
This is a short summary in detail:
http://jsfiddle.net/defencedog/W9Fsw/
Above simulates a Forum like environment (PHPBB3). here user can't insert html in posts thus a customised BBcode ([doc])is made in which is placed the required src attribute, unique to every SCRIBD document.
The goal is to get the text within the two [doc] & that will be something like (discarding the two BBCodes)
Code:

src="http://www.scribd.com/embeds/2942002/content?start_page=1&view_mode=list&access_key=key-sxlnrfvqu5s22kzi5xb"

then pass it on as a variable named src, which will then replace the contents to achieve desired output.
Notice the two problems
1] how do I select the div upon which the action is to take place I.e that contains [doc]. Remember there occurs other divs as well in a posted message?
2] How do I select the desired text?

Plz do giv me some suggestions

When comparing an empty string "" to another string like "1232", javascript is returning true. Why is that?

Hello,

I need your help.

For one reason or another, I have a textarea with text in it, however, when I call it back and store it in var, it seems to strip all the spaces.

[ID = "COMMENTS"]
Ie. of what's in the textarea:
----------------------------------------------
Apples are red

Oranges are orange

Pears are green

Bananas are yellow


var comments = document.getElementById("comments").value

returns:
Apples are red Oranges are orange Pears are green Bananas are yellow

How could this be re-written such that the spaces in between the text aren't ignored?

Much thanks and appreciation for everyones help.

Cheers

Hello,

I need your help.

How could I write a functional if statement such that it would check against a series of various word strings seperated by commas ie.

function check(y) {

//y = "FOR INPUT"

var string_to_check = FOR INPUT, FOR ACTION, FOR APPROVAL

if (y isin string_to_check) { return 1 }

}

Thanks for everyones help.

I'm trying to determine whether a word exists in the URL and if so, change the CSS of a div.

I know how to do each task individually, but combining the two is giving me trouble.

So far I have:

Code:

function checkSent(divname)
{
if(document.URL.indexOf("sent") >= 0)
	*document.getElementById(success).style.display = 'block';
}
var sentornot = checkSent();

// If the URL contains the word, sent, then change the display of the element "success" to block

I can successfully determine whether the string exists in the URL by adding an alert, but the Javascript to change the CSS doesn't work.

The CSS for the div element "success" is as follows:
Code:

#success {
display: none;
}

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Edit:
If needed, this is the code I used to test whether the "check URL" portion works:
Code:

function checkSent(divname)
{
if(document.URL.indexOf("sent") >= 0) {
	alert("found");
	document.getElementById("success").style.display = 'block'; //this line doesn't work :(
}
else{ alert("not found"); }
}

What would the best be to split the following string: "only(a-z,A-Z,1-9)"

I want to split it into a array to look like this: array(only, a-z, A-Z, 1-9);

This is all php except for the java code I am struggling with. Please advise.

I have tried this 2 ways and have spent hours on something that should be simple.

I have a string that I am trying to display in an alert box with an onclick

method 1:

$mystring = "<a href=\"mysite.com\">Click</a>";

this does not work

echo "<input type='button' value='Grab Code' onClick=alert('$mystring')>";

nor does this

echo "<input type='button' value='Grab Code' onClick=alert('".$mystring."')>";

nor does anything I try. All I want to do is display the value of mystring in an alert box.

However, this does work ..

echo "<script type='text/javascript'> alert('".$mystring."');</script>";

But I cannot call this from an onclick.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Hey guys. I'm trying to display a grid of data basically, but inside a table and with appropriate closing and beginning of td and tr tags. I'm having a very weird problem. Here is my code:

Code:

   tasks = document.getElementById('tasks');
   var i = 0;
   tasks.innerHTML = <tablebgcolor=silver>";
   while (i < 3)
   {
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + "<tr><td>";
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + text[i][0];
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + "</td><td>";
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + text[i][1];
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + "</td><td>";
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + text[i][2];
      tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + "</td></tr>";
      i++;
   }
   tasks.innerHTML = tasks.innerHTML + "</table>";

The html just doesn't work when it's in a string. I have to put each "<tr><td>", "</td><td>", </td></tr>", <table bgcolor=silver>", etc. into it's own variable and do it that way. That doesn't seem like it should be happening and I don't think it would be good to do it that way in the long run. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Hey guys, I need some help with fetching a string to be the button text from the html, instead of building it in the javascript, so I can localize it for translations.

Right now I have this generating the button:

Code:

<input type="button" id="share_validate_button" name="share_validate_button" value="<?php echo __('Test Share'); ?> " />

The function __() I am using for the localization stuff, in case you were wondering what that was for. Anyways, below is the JS associated with this button

Code:

function share_validate_click_add ()
{
	$('#share_validate_button').removeAttr('disabled').attr('value', 'Test Share').one('click', function(){
		xajax_settings_osb_data_windows_verify(xajax.getFormValues('data_info_form'));
		$('#share_validate_status').html('');
		$(this).attr('disabled', 'disabled').attr('value', 'Testing Share...');
	});
}

This will display the correct value for the button, and on click, the button disables and text changes to 'Testing Share...' The only problem is the JS overrides the value I set in the html, so I can't localize it.

I was wondering if there was a way for me to set the two values (Test Share & Testing Share...) in the html above where we set id and class, and just fetch them in the js where needed. Is this possible? If someone can help me I would really appreciate it!

Thanks!
