For some reason clicking the button will not but the variable in the textbox, I'm not getting any syntax errors in my compiler so I think it's a logic error. THanks in advance
JS:
var testvar = 5
$('.teambtn').click(function() {
document.getElementById('team').text = (testvar);
});
html:
<textarea id=team cols="50" rows="10">
Your Team Will be here:
</textarea>
<button type="button" id=teambtn class="btn">Export</button>
I think you're almost there. You just need to remove the brackets from test var and instead of replacing the .text property, you need to replace the .value property
document.getElementById('team').value = testvar;
Check out this link because I think it accomplishes what you want, http://www.mediacollege.com/internet/javascript/form/add-text.html
i think the problem is below .
$('.teambtn')
try to use $('#teambtn') .
Because you declared it is an id . But the selector indicates to class .
If you do not want to change the .js code then you can add it as a class .
I hope this will helps you .
Since you have used jQuery, below is sample usage:
var testvar = 5
$('#teambtn').click(function() {
$('#team').val(testvar);//set the value of textarea
});
teambtn and team are ids given, so to fetch by id using jQuery's selector #
To get/set the value of textarea and input elements use jQuery's $.val()
EDIT
Problem with your code is that you are trying to set text property of textarea, which is not valid instead you must try using value attribute:
document.getElementById('team').value = testvar;

I had thought these two were the same, but they appear to not be. I've generally been using $obj.attr("value") to work with form fields, but on the page I'm currently building, $obj.attr("value") does not return the text I enter in my field. However, $obj.val() does.
On a different page I've built, both $obj.attr("value") and $obj.val() return the text entered in the form field.
What could account for $obj.attr("value") working as expected in one case but not in another?
What is the proper way to set and retrieve a form field's value using jQuery?
There is a big difference between an objects properties and an objects attributes
See this questions (and its answers) for some of the differences: .prop() vs .attr()
The gist is that .attr(...) is only getting the objects value at the start (when the html is created). val() is getting the object's property value which can change many times.
Since jQuery 1.6, attr() will return the original value of an attribute (the one in the markup itself). You need to use prop() to get the current value:
var currentValue = $obj.prop("value");
However, using val() is not always the same. For instance, the value of <select> elements is actually the value of their selected option. val() takes that into account, but prop() does not. For this reason, val() is preferred.
PS: This is not an answer but just a supplement to the above answers.
Just for the future reference, I have included a good example that might help us to clear our doubt:
Try the following. In this example I shall create a file selector which can be used to select a file and then I shall try to retrieve the name of the file that I selected:
The HTML code is below:
<html>
<body>
<form action="#" method="post">
<input id ="myfile" type="file"/>
</form>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"> </script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="code.js"> </script>
</body>
</html>
The code.js file contains the following jQuery code. Try to use both
of the jQuery code snippets one by one and see the output.
jQuery code with attr('value'):
$('#myfile').change(function(){
alert($(this).attr('value'));
$('#mybutton').removeAttr('disabled');
});
jQuery code with val():
$('#myfile').change(function(){
alert($(this).val());
$('#mybutton').removeAttr('disabled');
});
Output:
The output of jQuery code with attr('value') will be 'undefined'.
The output of jQuery code with val() will the file name that you selected.
Explanation:
Now you may understand easily what the top answers wanted to convey. The output of jQuery code with attr('value') will be 'undefined' because initially there was no file selected so the value is undefined. It is better to use val() because it gets the current value.
In order to see why the undefined value is returned try this code in your HTML and you'll see that now the attr.('value') returns 'test' always, because the value is 'test' and previously it was undefined.
<input id ="myfile" type="file" value='test'/>
I hope it was useful to you.
Let's learn from an example.
Let there be a text input field with default value = "Enter your name"
var inp = $("input").attr("value");
var inp = $("input").val();
Both will return "Enter your name"
But suppose you change the default text to "Jose" in your browser.
var inp = $("input").attr("value");
will still give the default text i.e. "Enter your name".
var inp = $("input").val();
But .val() will return "Jose", i.e. the current value.
Hope it helps.
The proper way to set and get the value of a form field is using .val() method.
$('#field').val('test'); // Set
var value = $('#field').val(); // Get
With jQuery 1.6 there is a new method called .prop().
As of jQuery 1.6, the .attr() method returns undefined for attributes
that have not been set. In addition, .attr() should not be used on
plain objects, arrays, the window, or the document. To retrieve and
change DOM properties, use the .prop() method.
In order to get the value of any input field, you should always use $element.val() because jQuery handles to retrieve the correct value based on the browser of the element type.
jQuery('.changer').change(function () {
var addressdata = jQuery('option:selected', this).attr('address');
jQuery("#showadd").text(addressdata);
});
jQuery(".morepost").live("click", function() {
var loadID = jQuery(this).attr('id'); //get the id
alert(loadID);
});
you can also get the value of id using .attr()
this example may be useful:
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="test" type="text" />
<button onclick="testF()" >click</button>
<script>
function testF(){
alert($('#test').attr('value'));
alert( $('#test').prop('value'));
alert($('#test').val());
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
in above example, everything works perfectly. but if you change the version of jquery to 1.9.1 or newer in script tag you will see "undefined" in the first alert.
attr('value') doesn't work with jquery version 1.9.1 or newer.
Example more... attr() is various, val() is just one! Prop is boolean are different.
//EXAMPLE 1 - RESULT
$('div').append($('input.idone').attr('value')).append('<br>');
$('div').append($('input[name=nametwo]').attr('family')).append('<br>');
$('div').append($('input#idtwo').attr('name')).append('<br>');
$('div').append($('input[name=nameone]').attr('value'));
$('div').append('<hr>'); //EXAMPLE 2
$('div').append($('input.idone').val()).append('<br>');
$('div').append('<hr>'); //EXAMPLE 3 - MODIFY VAL
$('div').append($('input.idone').val('idonenew')).append('<br>');
$('input.idone').attr('type','initial');
$('div').append('<hr>'); //EXAMPLE 3 - MODIFY VALUE
$('div').append($('input[name=nametwo]').attr('value', 'new-jquery-pro')).append('<br>');
$('input#idtwo').attr('type','initial');
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type="hidden" class="idone" name="nameone" value="one-test" family="family-number-one">
<input type="hidden" id="idtwo" name="nametwo" value="two-test" family="family-number-two">
<br>
<div></div>
jquery - Get the value in an input text box
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
var classValues = jQuery(".cart tr").find("td.product-name").text();
classValues = classValues.replace(/[_\W]+/g, " ")
jQuery('input[name=your-p-name]').val(classValues);
//alert(classValues);
});
</script>
If you get the same value for both property and attribute, but still sees it different on the HTML try this to get the HTML one:
$('#inputID').context.defaultValue;
In attr('value') you're specifically saying you're looking for the value of an attribute named vaule. It is preferable to use val() as this is jQuery's out of the box feature for extracting the value out of form elements.
I have always used .val() and to be honest I didnt even know you could get the value using .attr("value"). I set the value of a form field using .val() as well ex. $('#myfield').val('New Value');
I'm trying to use 2Captcha service to solve an h captcha V2.
Works like this:
you get a value to solve the captcha
Then you find a textarea element in the HTML code to insert that value (here's my problem)
you insert the value in that element
You press submit button and the captcha is solved
First I'm going to present a working example, then I'll present where I have the problem.
This is the HTML code to find and insert the obtained value:
textarea id="h-captcha-response" name="h-captcha-response" style="display: none;"></textarea>
This is the python code used to insert the value:
value = get_value()
insert_solution = 'document.getElementById("h-captcha-response").innerHTML="' + value + '";'
driver.execute_script(insert_solution)
What this exactly does is taking you from this:
and this is the result:
Finally you press the submit button and it's done. This example works
This is my problem:
In my case the HTML document has a variable ID, like this one:
<textarea id="h-captcha-response-0tesbrpxsk8" name="h-captcha-response" style="display: none;"></textarea>
Notice that the id has an alphanumerical part (0tesbrpxsk8) that always changes making it more difficult to select.
I tried to find some regular expression to use inside of document.getElementById()
With no success
I also tried to use:
document.getElementByTagName("textarea").innerHTML=".....
I'm stucked here and tried other approaches with no success because I probably because I don't implement well those solutions or they just don't work.
I'll appreciate some insights, thanks
This will fill out all of those (recaptcha / hcaptcha):
driver.execute_script('''
let [captcha] = arguments
[...document.querySelectorAll('[name="h-captcha-response"],[name="g-recaptcha-response"]')].map(el => {
el.innerHTML = captcha
})
''', value)
Try this:
const textarea = document.querySelector('[id^="h-captcha-response-"]')
textarea.value = "This is inside the textarea!"
<textarea id="h-captcha-response-0tesbrpxsk8" name="h-captcha-response"></textarea>
First of all: You set the value of an textarea with textarea.value = "some value"
You should use document.querySelector() to select elements. (You have much more abilities there)
You can select id starting with, with this query: [id^="start"]
I want to get a value from JavaScript prompt and pass it to input for finally submit it
HTML
<form id="createdirForm"><input type="text" name="" id="createdir"/><form>
JavaScript
function createdir() {
var newdirname;
newdirname = prompt('Please input the directory name:', '');
if (!newdirname) return;
$('createdir').newdirname.value = newdirname;
$('createdirForm').submit();
}
The reason why it's not working is because you're not calling the selector in your jQuery properly.
You might want to take a look at the jQuery Selector Tutorial.
Now to fix your problem, since you want to get the input and the form by the id attribute, just like in CSS, you need to use the hashtag (#) symbol.
So you would do:
$('#createdir').val(newdirname);
$('#createdirForm').submit();
Here's a working example: https://jsfiddle.net/vm4ah1L3/1/
Just a side note, you might want to add a name to your html input otherwise when you submit it to your PHP, you won't be able to retrieve the value since the name attribute is empty.
<input type="text" name="dirName" id="createdir">
And in your case, since you're declaring the variable newdirname and assign it right after, you could simply do the assignation in one line:
var newdirname = prompt("Please input a directory name: ");
It seems your jQuery selector is wrong. Try
$('#createdir').val(newdirname);
$('#createdirForm').submit();
jQuery uses the css selector logic, therefore to select an element by id you need to put the # before the selector name.
Also, to add a value to an input, you need to use val(param) with your value replaced in the param.
You have some typo and have forgotten to add #. And the function is not executed.
HTML
<form id="createdirForm">
<input type="text" name="dir" id="createdir" />
</form>
JavaScript
function createdir() {
var newdirname;
newdirname = prompt('Please input the directory name:', '');
if (!newdirname) return;
$('#createdir').value = newdirname;
$('#createdirForm').submit();
}
createdir();
I have input field like
<input type="text" name="time[23][34][]" value="">
name of input field is dynamic. Means it might be time[23][34][],time1[11][33][],time2[45][22][] etc
Now I want to change it to multidimension to singledimension like
time[]
time1[]
time2[]
I have tried below code:
$('input').attr('name').replace(/(\[|\])/g, '\\$1')
How can i replace it using jquery or javascript?
this may help you:
https://jsfiddle.net/s033kv43/
var attrib = $('input').attr('name').replace(/[\[|\]]/g, '');
$('input').attr('name', attrib);
i get the name attribute and replace the brackets with nothing, then set the name attribute.
Dont forget to adjust this code, so its alters the correct input-fields
I am writing a Greasemonkey script and I need to be able to take the value from a hidden form element and set it to a variable.
The hidden form value looks like this:
<input type="hidden" name="ASIN" value="B009MO89Y4" />
I have no ID, class, or any way I can see to set the "value" to a variable. This needs to work dynamically and I currently have no way to establish a class or ID to this value.
Is there a Javascript (or jQuery) method to set this?
In other words:
Find "input" with name "ASIN" and set .val() to a variable?
This selector and assignment:
$("input[name='ASIN']").val(); <---- returns value of that input
var inputVal = $("input[name='ASIN']").val(); <-- Assigns it
var temp = "Stuff";
$("input[name='ASIN']").val(temp); <----Assigns the value of the temp var.
You can use the jQuery attribute equals selector
$('input[name="ASIN"]').val(foo);
You can select it via. name in jQuery like so:
var bar = "Example"; // Example text, to be used in val().
var x = $('input[name="ASIN"]').val(bar);
// Sets the variable x to be the value bar for the input with the name ASIN.
Here's a working jQuery jsFiddle.
In pure Javascript *:
var bar = "Example";
document.getElementsByName("ASIN")[0].value = bar;
Here's a working Javascript jsFiddle.
*Please note that although document.getElementsByName is supported well in Firefox, Chrome and Safari, it has limited browser support. in IE and Opera.
Like this:
$('input[name="ASIN"]').val();
Var:
var hiddenAsin = $('input[name="ASIN"]').val();
You can filter your selection with any attribute.
$('input[name=ASIN]').val("New Value")
You can use selector that targets inputs of type hidden. It should look like that:
$('input[type=hidden]');
or simpler:
$(':hidden');
Use this method
var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName('input');
for(var i = 0...)
{
//go through each input and look for the name "ANSI" and the type is hidden.
//and do your changes.
}
this is for javascript remember.
with this you should be able to get that specific hidden form without an ID nor a Class assigned to that specific form.
For pure javascript:
Try document.getElementsByName('name').
Note that cmptrgeekken pointed out that this has limited browser-support (although that would not be an issue with greasemonkey in FF).
As an alternative, if that hidden element has a fixed place you could also access it by index-number in a predictable collection that you got from knownParent.getElementsByTagName('tag')[#] (So the first hidden inputtag inside a form would be number 0).
Another variation is to get (again) knownParent.getElementsByTagName('tag') and loop over that collection to see what element has the 'name' attribute set that you seek.
Simply do:
var target=knownParent.getElementsByTagName('input'), L=target.length;
while(L--){ if(target[L].name==='name'){target=target[L]; break;} }
alert(target.value); //target is now the element you seek.
Example fiddle here.
Good luck!
