Replace string in text area with the value of ajax response

I have an ajax function that returns a shorturl of an url from a textarea.
When I want to replace the shorturl by the actual url in the text area by using replace, the code not work. this is my implementation
Ajax function:
function checkUrl(text) {
var bit_url = "";
var url = text;
var username = "o_1i42ajamkg"; // bit.ly username
var key = "R_359b9c5990a7488ba5e2b0ed541db820";
return $.ajax({
url: "http://api.bit.ly/v3/shorten",
data: {
longUrl: url,
apiKey: key,
login: username
},
dataType: "jsonp",
async: false,
success: function(v) {
bit_url = v.data.url;
}
});
}
and a function that call the checkurl function is implemented as follow
$("#urlr").change(function() {
var text = $("#Pushtype_message").val();
var c = "";
var msgtext = "";
var urlRegex = /(\b(https?|ftp|file):\/\/[-A-Z0-9+&##\/%?=~_|!:,.;]*[-A-Z0-9+&##\/%=~_|])/ig;
var MsgStr = $("#Pushtype_message").val();
var Arr = text.split(" ");
urllist = new Array();
urluri = new Array();
i = 0;
for (var n = 0; n < Arr.length; n++) {
txtStr = Arr[n];
var urltest = urlRegex.test(txtStr);
if (urltest) {
urllist[i] = txtStr;
}
}
for (var i = 0; i < urllist.length; i++) {
// console.log(urllist[i].toString());
checkUrl(urllist[i]).done(function(result) {
var response = (result.data.url);
console.log(response);
MsgStr.replace(urllist[i], response);
console.log(MsgStr);
$("#Pushtype_message").val(MsgStr);
});
}
});
In my text area I put this text:
test utl function https://www.google.Fr test success
and I get in my console the following result
main.js http://bit.****
main.js test utl function https://www.google.Fr test success
As you see, the function return an urlshortner but the initial text still the same. My expected result is: test utl function http://bit.l**** test success, but this don't work.

When working with textarea you can simply replace their text.
$("#Pushtype_message").text(MsgStr);

You need the assign the new value to MsgStr
for(var i=0; i<urllist.length; i++){
// console.log(urllist[i].toString());
checkUrl(urllist[i]).done(function(result){
var response=(result.data.url);
console.log(response);
MsgStr = MsgStr.replace(urllist[i],response);
console.log(MsgStr);
$("#Pushtype_message").val(MsgStr);
});
}
i is defined outside your for loop and used inside it urllist[i]=txtStr; but its value is never assigned, it's alaways = 0:
i=0;
for (var n = 0; n < Arr.length; n++) {
txtStr = Arr[n];
var urltest=urlRegex.test(txtStr);
if(urltest)
{
urllist[i]=txtStr;
}
}

I found the solution about my problem,
I affect urllist[j] to a new variable text, because in the checklist function urllist[j] return an undefined value.
var j=0;
for(j; j<urllist.length; j++){
var text=urllist[j];
checkUrl(urllist[j]).done(function(result){
var response=result.data.url;
console.log(urllist[j]);
MsgStr1 = MsgStr.replace(text,response);
console.log(MsgStr1);
$("#Pushtype_message").val(MsgStr1);
});
}
});

javascript Ajax method in different browser has different result

I have a code like this :
var width = [];
$.ajax({
url : "http://xxx.xxx.xxx" ,
type : "Get",
dataType: "json",
async : true,
success : function(data){
for (var index in data)
{
var options = data[index].option;
var position = (++index);
width[index] = new Array();
for (var keys in options)
{
width[index][keys] = options[keys].votes;
}
}
}
});
in the chrome browser, it works fine, but in the safari, the error look likes:
TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating 'width[index][keys] = options[keys].votes')
But if I open debug mode in safari, there is no error, so what's the problem in this code?

I change my for loop code like this:
for (var index = 0;index < data.length;index++) {
var options = data[index].option;
var position = index + 1;
width[index] = new Array();
for (var keys = 0; keys < options.length; keys++) {
width[index][keys] = options[keys].votes;
}
}
there is no error in any browser.

How to make a javascript function with elementid like argument?

I have an DevExpress Mvc token extension, where the user will insert several items.
Using javascript I send the items to the controller, which is working fine.
My function look like this:
$(function() {
$("#btnSave").click(function () {
var name = window.ComboBox.GetValue();
var i;
var team = new Array();
var tokens = window.tokenBox.GetTokenCollection();
for (i = 0; i < tokens.length; i++) {
team.push(tokens[i]);
}
var s = new Array();
var ss = window.tokenBox2.GetTokenCollection();
for (i = 0; i < ss.length; i++) {
s.push(ss[i]);
}
var w = new Array();
var ww = window.tokenBox3.GetTokenCollection();
for (i = 0; i < ww.length; i++) {
w.push(ww[i]);
}
var o = new Array();
var oo = window.tokenBox4.GetTokenCollection();
for (i = 0; i < oo.length; i++) {
o.push(oo[i]);
}
var t = new Array();
var tt = window.tokenBox5.GetTokenCollection();
for (i = 0; i < tt.length; i++) {
t.push(tt[i]);
}
$.ajax({
type: "post",
url: '#Url.Action("Action","Controller")',
data: { name:name, team:team, s:s, o:o, w:w, t:t },
beforeSend: function () {
window.loadingPanel.Show();
},
success: function (response) {
$("#mainAjax").html(response);
window.loadingPanel.Hide();
}
});
});
});
I want to use a function, to get the items from token and put them in an array (not repetitive code like above), something like this:
function GetTokenItems(token) {
var list = new Array();
var el = document.getElementsById(token);
var tokens = el.GetTokenCollection();
for (var i = 0; i < tokens.length; i++) {
list.push(tokens[i]);
}
return list;
};
This function is not working, error says:
Uncaught TypeError: document.getElementsById is not a function
How can I pass the Id of the tokenBok like argument in a function, or/and what is wrong with my function?
**Edit:**
I made the correction document.getElementById and now I get the error:
Uncaught TypeError: el.GetTokenCollection is not a function

Should be document.getElementById(id):
Returns a reference to the element by its ID; the ID is a string which can be used to identify the element; it can be established using the id attribute in HTML, or from script.
document.getElementById(...)
// ^ without s

I found the answer of my issue, maybe will be helpfull for others!
For Devexpress mvc extensions is enough to use the name of the extension like argument, no need to look for him with document.getElementById, so my function is working like this:
function GetTokenItems(token) {
var list = new Array();
var tokens = token.GetTokenCollection();
for (var i = 0; i < tokens.length; i++) {
list.push(tokens[i]);
}
return list;
};
now I can call this function like this:
var team=GetTokenItems(tokenBox); and is working!!!

For loop in Adobe ExtendScript

my for-loop in the "setEase" function won't increase "i"
function storeKeyframes(){
var properties = app.project.activeItem.selectedProperties;
var activeProperty = null;
var keySelection = null;
var curKey = null;
var curKeyTime = null;
var curKeyIndex = null;
var theEase = new KeyframeEase(0 , slider_1_slider.value);
for (var i = 0; i < properties.length; i++){
activeProperty = properties[i];
setEase();
}
function setEase(){
for (var i = 0; i < activeProperty.selectedKeys.length ; i++){
keySelection = activeProperty.selectedKeys;
curKey = keySelection[i];
curKeyTime = activeProperty.keyTime(curKey);
curKeyIndex = activeProperty.nearestKeyIndex(curKeyTime);
activeProperty.setInterpolationTypeAtKey(curKeyIndex, KeyframeInterpolationType.BEZIER, KeyframeInterpolationType.BEZIER);
activeProperty.setTemporalEaseAtKey(curKeyIndex,theEase, theEase);
}
}
}
I just can't figure out why. Am I missing something?

I tried your code and indeed "i" is not increasing, but for me the reason was that there was an error.
The main reason for error is that the 2nd and 3rd arguments to setTemporalEaseAtKey() should be arrays of KeyframeEase, not just KeyframeEase (see the scripting guide).
Another reason is that activeProperty needs not be an actual Property, hence querying activeProperty.selectedKeys.length will throw an error.
On a side note, what you call curKeyIndex is actually the same as curKey, so you dont need the nearestKeyIndex stuff. The following code works for me:
function storeKeyframes(){
var comp = app.project.activeItem;
if (!comp || comp.typeName !== "Composition") return;
var properties = comp.selectedProperties;
var i, I=properties.length;
var ease1 = new KeyframeEase(0,100);
for (i=0; i<I; i++){
if (properties[i] instanceof Property) setEase(properties[i], ease1);
};
};
function setEase(property, ease1){
var ease = property.propertyValueType===PropertyValueType.Two_D ? [ease1, ease1] : (property.propertyValueType===PropertyValueType.Three_D ? [ease1, ease1, ease1] : [ease1]);
var keySelection = property.selectedKeys;
var i, I=keySelection.length;
for (i=0; i<I; i++){
property.setInterpolationTypeAtKey(keySelection[i], KeyframeInterpolationType.BEZIER, KeyframeInterpolationType.BEZIER);
property.setTemporalEaseAtKey(keySelection[i], ease, ease);
};
};
storeKeyframes();

This works for me. Take a look into the console of the ESTK. I would suggest passing your activeProperty to your setEase function. So you keep your scopes clean.
Also it is better to not use the same iterator.
function main() {
storeKeyframes();
}
function storeKeyframes() {
var properties = app.project.activeItem.selectedProperties;
for (var i = 0; i < properties.length; i++) {
activeProperty = properties[i];
$.writeln(i + " in storeKeyframes");
setEase(activeProperty);
}
function setEase(ap) {
for (var j = 0; j < ap.selectedKeys.length; j++) {
$.writeln(j + " in setEase");
}
}
}
main();

Get anchor tag values in jQuery

I have a html tag like this.
<a class="employee_details" target="_blank" href="index1.php?name=user1&id=123">User</a>
I need to get the two parameter values in jquery
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
$('.employee_details').click(function () {
var status_id = $(this).attr('href').split('name');
alert(status_id[0]);
});
});
</script>
Any help in getting both the parameter values in two variables in javascript.
I want to get user1 and 123 in two variables using jQuery
Thanks

You can use URLSearchParams as a most up-to-date and modern solution:
let href = $(this).attr('href');
let pars = new URLSearchParams(href.split("?")[1]);
console.log(pars.get('name'));
Supported in all modern browsers and no jQuery needed!
Original answer:
Try this logic:
var href = $(this).attr('href');
var result = {};
var pars = href.split("?")[1].split("&");
for (var i = 0; i < pars.length; i++)
{
var tmp = pars[i].split("=");
result[tmp[0]] = tmp[1];
}
console.log(result);
So you'll get the parameters as properties on result object, like:
var name = result.name;
var id = result.id;
Fiddle.
An implemented version:
var getParams = function(href)
{
var result = {};
var pars = href.split("?")[1].split("&");
for (var i = 0; i < pars.length; i++)
{
var tmp = pars[i].split("=");
result[tmp[0]] = tmp[1];
}
return result;
};
$('.employee_details').on('click', function (e) {
var params = getParams($(this).attr("href"));
console.log(params);
e.preventDefault();
return false;
});
Fiddle.

$(function() {
$('.employee_details').on("click",function(e) {
e.preventDefault(); // prevents default action
var status_id = $(this).attr('href');
var reg = /name=(\w+).id=(\w+)/g;
console.log(reg.exec(status_id)); // returns ["name=user1&id=123", "user1", "123"]
});
});
// [0] returns `name=user1&id=123`
// [1] returns `user1`
// [2] returns `123`
JSFiddle
NOTE: Better to use ON method instead of click

Not the most cross browser solution, but probably one of the shortest:
$('.employee_details').click(function() {
var params = this.href.split('?').pop().split(/\?|&/).reduce(function(prev, curr) {
var p = curr.split('=');
prev[p[0]] = p[1];
return prev;
}, {});
console.log(params);
});
Output:
Object {name: "user1", id: "123"}
If you need IE7-8 support this solution will not work, as there is not Array.reduce.

$(function () {
$('.employee_details').click(function () {
var query = $(this).attr('href').split('?')[1];
var vars = query.split('&');
for (var i = 0; i < vars.length; i++) {
var pair = vars[i].split('=');
var varName = decodeURIComponent(pair[0]);
var varValue = decodeURIComponent(pair[1]);
if (varName == "name") {
alert("name = " + varValue);
} else if (varName == "id") {
alert("id = " + varValue);
}
}
});
});

It's not very elegant, but here it is!
var results = new Array();
var ref_array = $(".employee_details").attr("href").split('?');
if(ref_array && ref_array.length > 1) {
var query_array = ref_array[1].split('&');
if(query_array && query_array.length > 0) {
for(var i = 0;i < query_array.length; i++) {
results.push(query_array[i].split('=')[1]);
}
}
}
In results has the values. This should work for other kinds of url querys.

It's so simple
// function to parse url string
function getParam(url) {
var vars = [],hash;
var hashes = url.slice(url.indexOf('?') + 1).split('&');
for (var i = 0; i < hashes.length; i++) {
hash = hashes[i].split('=');
vars.push(hash[0]);
vars[hash[0]] = hash[1];
}
return vars;
}
// your code
$(function () {
$('.employee_details').click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var qs = getParam($(this).attr('href'));
alert(qs["name"]);// user1
var status_id = $(this).attr('href').split('name');
});
});
