Paste and Modify Content Pasted In Textarea - Showing Twice

I am trying to replace the content that pastes in the Textarea, but facing a problem that it shows in the Textarea the original content and the "modified" content both. Hope you can help me.
HTML Code (just a simple textarea):
<textarea name="Notes_999" class="cssDetail" id="Notes_999" autocomplete="off"> </textarea>
The Jquery code:
$(".cssDetail").bind("paste", function(e){
// access the clipboard using the api
var elemID = $(this).attr("id");
console.log("elemID: " + elemID);
var t_string = "";
var pastedData = e.originalEvent.clipboardData.getData('text');
console.log("pastedData " + pastedData );
var arrayOfLines = pastedData.split('\n');
$.each(arrayOfLines, function(index, item) {
var cnt_spaces = item.search(/\S|$/);
console.log("cnt_spaces: " + cnt_spaces + " - line: " + item);
item = item.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g, '');
if (cnt_spaces == 8) {
t_string += "- " + item + '\n';
} else {
t_string += item + '\n';
}
});
//console.log("elemID: " + elemID);
$("#"+elemID).text(''); // Try to clean before replace new content but not working.
$("#"+elemID).text(t_string);
});
The function above works fine and does what I expected. However, the result inside the Textarea has both the original and the "modified " one (t_string variable). I only want the "modified" one in the textarea, please help.
Thank you,

How to concatenate and pass parameters values in html using jQuery

I'm using jQuery to get values from ajax rest call, I'm trying to concatenate these values into an 'a' tag in order to create a pagination section for my results (picture attached).
I'm sending the HTML (divHTMLPages) but the result is not well-formed and not working, I've tried with double quotes and single but still not well-formed. So, I wonder if this is a good approach to accomplish what I need to create the pagination. The 'a' tag is going to trigger the onclick event with four parameters (query for rest call, department, row limit and the start row for display)
if (_startRow == 0) {
console.log("First page");
var currentPage = 1;
// Set Next Page
var nextPage = 2;
var startRowNextPage = _startRow + _rowLimit + 1;
var query = $('#queryU').val();
// page Link
divHTMLPages = "<strong>1</strong> ";
divHTMLPages += "<a href='#' onclick='getRESTResults(" + query + "', '" + _reg + "', " + _rowLimit + ", " + _startRow + ")>" + nextPage + "</a> ";
console.log("Next page: " + nextPage);
}
Thanks in advance for any help on this.
Pagination

Rather than trying to type out how the function should be called in an HTML string, it would be much more elegant to attach an event listener to the element in question. For example, assuming the parent element you're inserting elements into is called parent, you could do something like this:
const a = document.createElement('a');
a.href = '#';
a.textContent = nextPage;
a.onclick = () => getRESTResults(query, _reg, _rowLimit, _startRow);
parent.appendChild(a);
Once an event listener is attached, like with the onclick above, make sure not to change the innerHTML of the container (like with innerHTML += <something>), because that will corrupt any existing listeners inside the container - instead, append elements explicitly with methods like createElement and appendChild, as shown above, or use insertAdjacentHTML (which does not re-parse the whole container's contents).

$(function()
{
var query=10;
var _reg="12";
var _rowLimit="test";
var _startRow="aa";
var nextPage="testhref";
//before divHTMLPages+=,must be define divHTMLPages value
var divHTMLPages = "<a href='#' onclick=getRESTResults('"+query + "','" + _reg + "','" + _rowLimit + "','" + _startRow + "')>" + nextPage + "</a>";
///or use es6 `` Template literals
var divHTMLPages1 = `` + nextPage + ``;
$("#test").append("<div>"+divHTMLPages+"</div>");
$("#test").append("<div>"+divHTMLPages1+"</div>");
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="test"></div>

Eval multiple javascript variables not working

I am trying to grab some text content (HTML comments) on the page and convert it into variables. The text content will be of the format:
I have constructed some Javascript that works up to a point, but will not go past the final variable declaration "var shorturl = ..."
Javascript code below:
$(document).ready(function() {
if (document.getElementById("ajax-gallery")) {
var shortcode = '<!-- [var module="gallery"; var id="1"; var type="single"; var data="only";] -->';
shortcode = shortcode.replace("<!-- [", "");
shortcode = shortcode.replace("] -->", "");
eval('shortcode');
var shorturl = "shorturl = " + module + "/shortcode_" + type + ".php?id=" + id + "&data=" + data;
eval('shorturl')
updateGallery(shorturl, "ajax-gallery");
}
});
I would have thought this would work, but apparently not. I know that eval is frowned upon but at present I cannot find a "nicer" method.

replaceWith inside each don't work with my own tag

Hello I have function which take text with my own tag and convert this tag to a:
//<link src="" title=""> -> title
function ProceedLinkTag(text) {
var items = text.filter("link");
items.each(function () {
var currentElement = $(this);
var title = currentElement.attr("title");
var source = currentElement.attr("src");
var newElement = $("<a>" + title +"</a>");
newElement.attr("href", source);
$(this).replaceWith("<a href='" + source + "'>" + title + "</a>"); //don't work
});
}
It work fine(it is detect my own tag even without close tag), I don't get any errors, but it is don't replaceWith().
Try it:
var text = "<link src='http://lenta.ru/' title='title'>";
ProceedLinkTag($(text));
alert(text);
I also try use it with close tag:
var text = "<link src='http://lenta.ru/' title='title'/>";
ProceedLinkTag($(text));
alert(text);
But it don't work too.

#sqykly find error:
Text in my instance was not a part of document. I change it and now it work.

Not all Ajax content loading on one domain

I have the domain http://whatthecatdragged.in/ forwarded (cloaked) to http://moppy.co.uk/wtcdi/
The root page (index.html) uses Ajax to load the content. At the original host (moppy.co.uk/wtcdi) the page and all content loads. However, at the domain forwarded domain (whatthecatdragged.in), some of the content does not load. Has it something to do with the way .each is used to fire off Ajax calls, as mentioned by AnthonyWJones?
I've attempted to debug this, but peculiarly turning on the Firebug console in Firefox 3.5 actually seems to make all the content load.

UPDATE 1: I contacted the domain name company, their advice was basically "don't use JavaScript". Still can't see why it would work under one domain name and not another... Could it be to do with the fact that they "forward" the domain by means of a frame?

The browser will block AJAX requests that are sent outside of the domain that the script is hosted on. This is most likely the cause of your problem from the sound of things.
EDIT: I've found the problem, you have console.debug() calls in your script. This method is defined by the Firebug Console which is why it's only working while the Console is active. Try removing any calls to console.debug() and see how it goes.
