Wanting to refactor these nested javascript loops of arrays and the conditional if statements

I have an outer and inner loop that I need to be able to display input text boxes on the outer loop, meanwhile I need to look at the inner loop to exclude value that are in that array. I have tried many different ways and adjustments - this seems to be working - but it looks frickin ugly doesn't it? What can be done to improve readability?
var attName = 'IVS-REC-TYP','a', 'b', 'c', 'd';
var listTEDNoEdit = ['IVS-REC-TYP', 'IVS-TM-STAMP', 'IVS-ADJ-KEY', 'IVS-TCN-FILING-DT', 'IVS-TCN-FILING-ST-CTRY', 'IVS-TCN-SEQ', 'IVS-DT-PROCESSED', 'IVS-ADMIN-CLIN', 'IVS-NBR-LINES', 'IVS-LINE-NBR', 'IVS-DT-PROCESSED', 'IVS-DEERS-DDS', 'IVS-LINE-AMT-ALLOWED'];
// OUTER Loop is attName
// INNER Loop is looking to exclude these values in this array called listTEDNoEdit
for (i = 0; i < tagAttr.length; i++) {
var attName = tagAttr[i].localName;
for (index2 = 0; index2 < listTEDNoEdit.length; index2++) {
if (attName === listTEDNoEdit[index2]) {
tagAttrText += "<li>" + attName + " = " + attText + "</li>";
break;
} else {
var tedEx = listTEDNoEdit.indexOf(attName);
if (tedEx === -1) {
tagAttrText += "<li>" + attName + " = <input type='text' value='" + attText + "'/></li>";
break;
} else {
tagAttrText += "<li>" + attName + " = " + attText + "</li>";
break;
}
break;
}
}

Google Docs Apps Script getBackgroundColor(Offset)

Let's say I have some sentences in Google Docs. Just one sentences as an example:
"My house is on fire"
I actually changed the background color so that every verb is red and every noun blue.
Now I want to make a list with all the verbs and another one with the nouns. Unfortunately getBackgroundColor() only seems to work with paragraphs and not with single words.
My idea was, to do something like this (I didn't yet have the time to think about how to do the loop, but that's not the point here anyway):
var doc = DocumentApp.getActiveDocument();
var body = doc.getBody();
var paragraphs = body.getParagraphs();
var colorVar = paragraphs[0].getText().match(/\w+/).getBackgroundColor(); // The regEx matches the first word. Next I want to get the background color.
Logger.log(colorVar);
}
The error message I get goes something like this:
"The function getBackgroundColor in the text object couldn't be found"
Thx for any help, or hints or comments!

You want to retrieve the text from a paragraph.
You want to retrieve each word and the background color of each word from the retrieved the text.
In this case, the color is the background color which is not getForegroundColor().
You want to achieve this using Google Apps Script.
If my understanding is correct, how about this answer? Please think of this as just one of several possible answers.
At first, the reason of your error is that getBackgroundColor() is the method of Class Text. In your script, getBackgroundColor() is used for the string value. By this, the error occurs.
In this answer, for achieving your goal, each character of the text retrieved from the paragraph is scanned, and each word and the background color of each word can be retrieved.
Sample script:
function myFunction() {
var doc = DocumentApp.getActiveDocument();
var body = doc.getBody();
var paragraphs = body.getParagraphs();
var textObj = paragraphs[0].editAsText();
var text = textObj.getText();
var res = [];
var temp = "";
for (var i = 0; i < text.length; i++) {
var c = text[i];
if (c != " ") {
temp += c;
} else {
if (temp != "") res.push({text: temp, color: textObj.getBackgroundColor(i - 1)});
temp = "";
}
}
Logger.log(res) // result
}
When you run the script, the text of 1st paragraph is parsed. And you can see the result with res as an object.
In this sample script, the 1st paragraph is used as a test case. So if you want to retrieve the value from other paragraph, please modify the script.

getBackgroundColor()
getBackgroundColor(offset)
editAsText()
If I misunderstood your question and this was not the direction you want, I apologize.

Here's a script your welcome to take a look at. It highlights text that a user selects...even individual letters. I did it several years ago just to learn more about how documents work.

Only show objects in array that contain a specific string

I was trying to make something where you can type a string, and the js only shows the objects containing this string. For example, I type Address1 and it searches the address value of each one then shows it (here: it would be Name1). Here is my code https://jsfiddle.net/76e40vqg/11/
HTML
<input>
<div id="output"></div>
JS
var data = [{"image":"http://www.w3schools.com/css/img_fjords.jpg","name":"Name1","address":"Address1","rate":"4.4"},
{"image":"http://shushi168.com/data/out/114/38247214-image.png","name":"Name2","address":"Address2","rate":"3.3"},
{"image":"http://www.menucool.com/slider/jsImgSlider/images/image-slider-2.jpg","name":"Name3","address":"Address3","rate":"3.3"}
];
var restoName = [], restoAddress = [], restoRate = [], restoImage= [];
for(i = 0; i < data.length; i++){
restoName.push(data[i].name);
restoAddress.push(data[i].address);
restoRate.push(data[i].rate);
restoImage.push(data[i].image);
}
for(i = 0; i < restoName.length; i++){
document.getElementById('output').innerHTML += "Image : <a href='" + restoImage[i] + "'><div class='thumb' style='background-image:" + 'url("' + restoImage[i] + '");' + "'></div></a><br>" + "Name : " + restoName[i] + "<br>" + "Address : " + restoAddress[i] + "<br>" + "Rate : " + restoRate[i] + "<br>" + i + "<br><hr>";
}
I really tried many things but nothing is working, this is why I am asking here...

Don't store the details as separate arrays. Instead, use a structure similar to the data object returned.
for(i = 0; i < data.length; i++){
if (data[i].address.indexOf(searchedAddress) !== -1) { // Get searchedAddress from user
document.getElementById("output").innerHTML += data[i].name;
}
}
Edits on your JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/76e40vqg/17/
Cheers!

Here is a working solution :
var data = [{"image":"http://www.w3schools.com/css/img_fjords.jpg","name":"Name1","address":"Address1","rate":"4.4"},
{"image":"http://shushi168.com/data/out/114/38247214-image.png","name":"Name2","address":"Address2","rate":"3.3"},
{"image":"http://www.menucool.com/slider/jsImgSlider/images/image-slider-2.jpg","name":"Name3","address":"Address3","rate":"3.3"}
];
document.getElementById('search').onkeyup = search;
var output = document.getElementById('output');
function search(event) {
var value = event.target.value;
output.innerHTML = '';
data.forEach(function(item) {
var found = false;
Object.keys(item).forEach(function(val) {
if(item[val].indexOf(value) > -1) found = true;
});
if(found) {
// ouput your data
var div = document.createElement('div');
div.innerHTML = item.name
output.appendChild(div);
}
});
return true;
}
<input type="search" id="search" />
<div id="output"></div>

javascript inline code link generating chrome extension

I'm trying to make an extension for chrome that grabs data from a website and I'm having trouble making the links clickable. I CAN NOT use javascript inside the link (ex: href="javascript:myfunction(param);")
I need to create a div for each title, then create a onclick function that handles the div's innerhtml, and I can't get it to work.
here is my code so far:
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () {
$().ready(function () {
var url = 'http://somewebsite';
$.get(url, function (data) {
data = data.split("<tr name=\"hover\">");
var name;
var link;
var count = data.length;
count++;
for(var i = 1; i < data.length; i++){
data[i] = data[i].replace("<br>","<br />");
data[i] = data[i].replace("class=\"thread_link\"", "");
data[i] = data[i].replace("<td class=\"forum_thread_post\" align=\"center\">0</td>","");
data[i] = data[i].replace("<td class=\"forum_thread_post\">","");
data[i] = data[i].replace("</td>","");
data[i] = data[i].replace('<td class="forum_thread_post" align="center">0</td>','');
if(i != data.length-1){
data[i] = data[i].replace("<a href=\"", "");
data[i] = data[i].replace("</a>", "");
data[i] = data[i].split("\" >");
data[i][1] = data[i][1].split("<");
document.write('<div id="' + data[i][1][0] + '">' + data[i][1][0] + data[i][0] + "</div><br /><br />");
}else{
data[i] = data[i].split("</table>")[0];
data[i] = data[i].replace("<a href=\"", "");
data[i] = data[i].replace("</a>", "");
data[i] = data[i].split("\" >");
data[i][1] = data[i][1].split("<");
document.write('<div id="' + data[i][1][0] + '">' + data[i][1][0] + data[i][0] + "</div>");
}
}
//document.body.innerHTML = '';
//console.log(data);
});
});
});
document.write('</script>');
function getshow(url){
alert(url);
document.body.innerHTML = '';
$.get("http://somewebsite" + url, function (dat) {
document.write(dat);
});
}

How to rewrite this Javascript code using Jquery?

function SelectDistrict(argument)
{
var sel=document.getElementById("city");
sel.style.display = '';
sel.options.length = 0;
sel.options.add(new Option('Please select a location',''));
var i=1;
var tempInt=parseInt(argument);
if (tempInt%10000==0)
{
var place1=document.getElementById('place1');
place1.innerHTML =county[tempInt];
}
sel.options.add(new Option('all',tempInt));
$('#inputcity').hide();
while (i<=52)
{
tempInt+=100;
if (county[tempInt]==undefined)
{
break;
}
else {
op_cir = new Option(county[tempInt], tempInt);
sel.options.add(op_cir);
}
i++;
}
}

You could do something like this:
function SelectDistrict(argument)
{
var sel = $('#city'); // Store the jQuery object to save time
sel.hide().empty().append('<option>Please select a location.</option');
var i = 1;
var tempInt = argument;
if (tempInt % 10000 == 0)
{
$('#place1').html(county[tempInt]);
}
sel.append('<option value="'+tempInt+'">all</option>');
$('#inputcity').hide();
var optionsValue = ''; // Appending strings to each other is faster than modifying the DOM
tempInt += 100;
while ((i <= 52) && (county[tempInt] != undefined)) // Just put the condition here instead of breaking the loop
{
optionsValue += "<option value='" + tempInt + "'>" + county[tempInt] + "</option>";
tempInt += 100;
i++;
}
sel.append(optionsValue);
}
I hope that works for you!

you have to replace every document.getElementById() by $("#elementid") like $("#city");
and place1.innerHTML =county[tempInt]; by $("#place1").text(county[tempInt]);

You can change the while loop to:
$.each(county, function(i, itm) {
optionsValue += "<option value='" + i + "'>" + itm + "</option>";
})
