I'm trying to use the Test() Method like I did here :
var namealbum = data.data[i].name;
var text = namealbum;
if (/les comics d/i.test(text) == false) {
//do nothing
} else {
var albumid = data.data[i].id;
$('body').append('<section id="album album'+j+'"><h2 id="album_title">'+text+'</h2><div id="images"></div></section>');
But I wonder if it's possible to use this method with two variables.
Kind of like this :
var comicname = photos.data[i].name;
var comicpicture= photos.data[i].source;
var comiclink = photos.data[i].link;
if (albumid.test(comiclink) == false){
}else {
$('#images').append('<img src="'+comicpicture+'"/>');
};
Actually, I want to test if there is the content of the variable albumid (which is the ID of an album) in the link of a photograph stored in the variable comiclink.
I hope you guys will understand my bad english.
Thank you though !
In this case there is no need to use a regex, You can String.indexOf() like
if (comiclink.toLowerCase().indexOf(albumid.toLowerCase()) > -1) {
If you still want to use a regex
//on page load
if (!RegExp.escape) {
RegExp.escape = function (value) {
return value.replace(/[\-\[\]{}()*+?.,\\\^$|#\s]/g, "\\$&")
};
}
var regex = new RegExp(RegExp.escape(albumid), 'i');
if (regex.test(comiclink) == false) {} else {
$('#images').append('<img src="' + comicpicture + '"/>');
};

I have this class like so :
https://jsfiddle.net/0sh7fLtp/
When I create a new object of this class, my local variable can't be seen even when I assign to window in the class:
function Hilitor() {
var excat;
this.setMatchType = function(type) {
if (type == "exact"){
window.excat = true;
}
};
this.setRegex = function(input) {
alert(excat);
};
this.apply = function(input) {
this.setRegex();
};
}
and this is how i call it :
var myHilitor = new Hilitor();
myHilitor.apply();
myHilitor.setMatchType("exact");
Not sure I completely understand your question but you are trying to compare a variable "excat" to string "excat"... See this fiddle to how you can make your var a string and then get desired output..
https://jsfiddle.net/shemdani/0sh7fLtp/5/
var myHilitor = new Hilitor();
myHilitor.setMatchType("excat");
myHilitor.apply();
function Hilitor()
{
var excat;
this.setMatchType = function(type)
{
if(type == "excat"){window.excat = true;}
};
this.setRegex = function(input)
{
alert(window.excat);
};
this.apply = function(input)
{
this.setRegex();
};
}
Two main problems
1) Your var exact inside the function is not a global variable and so not accessible on the window object. (But that's a good thing).
Your code will work if you remove window.exact for just exact
this.setMatchType = function(type)
{
if(type == "exact"){excat = true;}
};
2) You are also calling apply before you call setMatchType. Switching them like this works:
var myHilitor = new Hilitor();
myHilitor.setMatchType("excat");
myHilitor.apply();
Working example
Right now I'm having a major brain fart. I have this function:
function uplodeVirus(){
console.log('working')
console.log('uplodeVirus')
var form = document.getElementsByTagName('form')[1]
console.log(form)
var select = form.children[0]
console.log(select)
for (x in select) {
var lN = select[x].innerHTML // var linkName
if (lN == "vspam 0.3 [OpenRelay-backdoor.vspam ] (0.003 Gb)"){
value = select[x].value
select[x].setAttribute("selected", "selected");
form.submit()
break
}
}
}
Don't worry its not a real Virus!!! This is a bot for a game called slave hack - for learning purposes
Anyways, when I call the function:
var ip = '2.2.2.2'
var uplodeVirus = 'http://www.slavehack.com/index2.php?page=internet&var2=' + ip + '&var3=files&aktie=upload'
var currentUrl = window.location.href
console.log(currentUrl)
console.log(uplodeVirus)
if (currentUrl == uplodeVirus) { //Yes, I made sure that currentUrl = uplodeVirus
uplodeVirus()
}
Nothing happens... but if I take the code out of the function and do this:
if (currentUrl == uplodeVirus){
console.log('working')
console.log('uplodeVirus')
var form = document.getElementsByTagName('form')[1]
console.log(form)
var select = form.children[0]
console.log(select)
for (x in select) {
var lN = select[x].innerHTML // var linkName
if (lN == "vspam 0.3 [OpenRelay-backdoor.vspam ] (0.003 Gb)"){
value = select[x].value
select[x].setAttribute("selected", "selected");
form.submit()
break
}
}
}
It works!!! Now, I could go with option B, but I really want to figure out what i did wrong.
Thanks in advance!
You are naming both a URL variable and a function with the same name: uplodeVirus
Since the variable is initialized to hold a string before you try to call the function, calling uplodeVirus() is the same as calling ("")(). It doesn't make any sense, because a string is not a function.
Try changing the name of one or the other.
I was reading through fluent api I got a doubt.
I want to take in a string upon which a jQuery function or example is called upon
Function
function compareThis(newString) {
function compare(newString) {
if (this == newString) {
alert("same string");
} else {
alert("differnt string");
}
}
}
Where it is called as
("alerting").compareThis("alerted").compare(); //alert 'different string'
I want to pass the data/string not as parameter but as called upon.
JSFiddle
Note: I would like to call the function in similar cases like finding date interval etc
You can use prototype to add function to String class:
String.prototype.compare = function(newString){
if (this == newString) {
alert("same string");
} else {
alert("differnt string");
}
};
I think you should adapt the code for your function, but it's the idea.
Maybe I missed interpreted however, it looks as it you required a form of method chaining to compare string. To do this you can create a variable and create functions inside it.
var compare = (function(){
var thisString;
var stringToCompare;
var create = function(sVal) {
thisString = sVal;
return this;
};
// Public
var compareThis = function(sVal) {
stringToCompare = sVal;
return this;
};
var compare = function(anotherString) {
return thisString == stringToCompare;
};
return {
create: create,
compareThis: compareThis,
compare: compare
};
}());
var b = compare.create('test').compareThis('test').compare();
alert(b);
Example fiddle
I want to test this function:
/js/lib/front.js
var Front = function(){
this.onSignUp = function(){
if (!Form.assertInput("email")) {
$("input[name=email]").focus();
this.showHiddenMessage("Email not set.");
return false;
}
}
}
I have in:
/js/lib/form.js
function Form() {
this.assertInput = function (name, defaultValue) {
var text = $("input[name=" + name + "]").val();
if (defaultValue != null) {
if (defaultValue && text == defaultValue)
return false;
}
if(this.trim(text)) return true;
return false;
}
}
This simple test passing:
test("Front", function() {
var front = new Front()
ok(front);
});
But if I write something like this:
test("On Sign Up ", function() {
var front = new Front()
equal(front.onSignUp(),false,"passing test");
});
I have error:
Died on test #1: Form.assertInput is not a function
I don't understand, what I need test in function like this and how include function inside another function?
I've saved a working fiddle here. As a side note, you might want to check out a tutorial on using qUnit, here.One thing that you need to pay attention to is when you're declaring your functions. It's saying Form.assertInput is not a function because you can't access it like that. You need to use the this keyword, which refers to current context. The code should be something like this:
var Form = function () {
//good to have assertInput first if you're using it in a later function
this.assertInput = function (name, defaultValue) {
var text = $("input[name=" + name + "]").val();
if (defaultValue != null) {
//safer to explicitly close your if statements with {}
if (defaultValue && text == defaultValue) {
return false;
}
}
if ($.trim(text)) { return true; }
return false;
};
this.showHiddenMessage = function (message) {
alert(message);
};
this.onSignUp = function() {
//this will point to the current context, in this case it will be Form class
if (!this.assertInput("email")) {
$("input[name=email]").focus();
this.showHiddenMessage("Email not set.");
return false;
}
};
};
Also in the example code that you gave you're missing the Front class. So I created a dummy one in my fiddle like this:
var Front = function() {};
Here are the tests that were run:
$(document).ready(function() {
test("Front", function() {
var front = new Front();
ok(front);
});
test("On Sign Up ", function() {
var form = new Form();
equal(form.onSignUp(), false, "passing test");
});
});
How to write this JavaScript code without eval?
var typeOfString = eval("typeof " + that.modules[modName].varName);
if (typeOfString !== "undefined") {
doSomething();
}
The point is that the name of the var that I want to check for is in a string.
Maybe it is simple but I don't know how.
Edit: Thank you for the very interesting answers so far. I will follow your suggestions and integrate this into my code and do some testing and report. Could take a while.
Edit2: I had another look at the could and maybe itis better I show you a bigger picture. I am greatful for the experts to explain so beautiful, it is better with more code:
MYNAMESPACE.Loader = ( function() {
function C() {
this.modules = {};
this.required = {};
this.waitCount = 0;
this.appendUrl = '';
this.docHead = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];
}
function insert() {
var that = this;
//insert all script tags to the head now!
//loop over all modules:
for (var modName in this.required) {
if(this.required.hasOwnProperty(modName)){
if (this.required[modName] === 'required') {
this.required[modName] = 'loading';
this.waitCount = this.waitCount + 1;
this.insertModule(modName);
}
}
}
//now poll until everything is loaded or
//until timout
this.intervalId = 0;
var checkFunction = function() {
if (that.waitCount === 0) {
clearInterval(that.intervalId);
that.onSuccess();
return;
}
for (var modName in that.required) {
if(that.required.hasOwnProperty(modName)){
if (that.required[modName] === 'loading') {
var typeOfString = eval("typeof " + that.modules[modName].varName);
if (typeOfString !== "undefined") {
//module is loaded!
that.required[modName] = 'ok';
that.waitCount = that.waitCount - 1;
if (that.waitCount === 0) {
clearInterval(that.intervalId);
that.onSuccess();
return;
}
}
}
}
}
};
//execute the function twice a second to check if all is loaded:
this.intervalId = setInterval(checkFunction, 500);
//further execution will be in checkFunction,
//so nothing left to do here
}
C.prototype.insert = insert;
//there are more functions here...
return C;
}());
var myLoader = new MYNAMESPACE.Loader();
//some more lines here...
myLoader.insert();
Edit3:
I am planning to put this in the global namespace in variable MYNAMESPACE.loadCheck, for simplicity, so the result would be, combining from the different answers and comments:
if (MYNAMESPACE.loadCheck.modules[modName].varName in window) {
doSomething();
}
Of course I will have to update the Loader class where ever "varName" is mentioned.
in JS every variable is a property, if you have no idea whose property it is, it's a window property, so I suppose, in your case, this could work:
var typeOFString = typeof window[that.modules[modName].varName]
if (typeOFString !== "undefined") {
doSomething();
}
Since you are only testing for the existence of the item, you can use in rather than typeof.
So for global variables as per ZJR's answer, you can look for them on the window object:
if (that.modules[modName].varName in window) {
...
}
If you need to look for local variables there's no way to do that without eval. But this would be a sign of a serious misdesign further up the line.
