Using chance.js to place a random word into html - javascript

Im sure this is probably a stupid question...
Im using chance.js because I want the main <h1> on my site to display something different each time you reload the page.
So if i put the following into my functions.js file:
$(window).load(function() {
document.write(chance.pick(['hello', 'GDay']));
});
how to I get the word to appear inside my <h1> </h1> tags in my html file ?

The document.write method will output that text where it is called. If you call it between the tags, it will output that text between the tags.

Give the <h1> tags an ID, like this:
<h1 id="title">text here</h1>
Then, instead of document.write, do something like this:
$("#title").html(chance.pick(['hello', 'GDay']));

Include html in another html file for Adsence

I'm trying to include my Adsense code from a file called sda.html located in the home folder of the server.
I'm using this code to include it:
<div w3-include-html="../../sda.html" class="section_title text-center"></div>
from this source: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_html_include.asp
but idk I feel there's something wrong.
btw my site is only HTML and js, so if there is any other better option I'll be glad to hear it.
I also checked this one down:
<!--#include virtual="/menu.shtml" -->
but I didn't use it, since I have no clue how my next server will operated. so I skip it.
and this one here:
<object data="../../sda.html"></object>
I prefer this one, but I have no control of the look of it, I couldn't center or anything
the smaller the code the better it is.
Does sda.html contains only adsense code or whole part of the page?
The includeHTML function from w3school is not very good. I suspect the issue you are having is that that function uses innerHTML to set content and innerHTML doesn't execute <script> tags with content: check "Security considerations" on MDN page.
To workaround this you can do the following: remove <script> tags from sda.html and then, once you imported HTML run window.adsbygoogle.push({}) for each new ad unit. Example:
Add adsbygoogle.js tag in of your page:
<script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
Insert ad into a div with id div-with-ad.
const divWithAd = document.querySelector('#div-with-ad');
divWithAd.innerHTML = `
<ins class="adsbygoogle"
style="display:block; text-align:center;"
data-ad-format="fluid"
data-ad-layout="in-article"
data-ad-client="ca-pub-0123456789101112"
data-ad-slot="9876543210"></ins>
`;
adsbygoog.push({});

How to find active tag formats using jQuery?

I have a situation with sample code as follows:
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>
<h1>The header</h1>
<div>
matter ia always matter matter ia <strong>bold matter</strong> matter matter <em>italics matter</em>matter ia <em><strong>bold italics matter</strong></em>lways matter
</div>
</p>
</body>
</html>
I am just trying to retrieve the specific tags like body->p->div->em->strong when I click on "bold italics matter" using jQuery. Is there any standard method to retrieve as per the click event?
If you wan to get the tag name of the element which is clicked, then you can use:
$('*').click(function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
console.log($(this).prop('tagName'));
});
Fiddle Demo
I'm not completely sure about what you are trying to accomplish. If you are trying to retrieve the tag itself that the text is contained in, i would recommend that you put a <span> tag in around the the text in question and do an onclick="function()" or simply put the onclick right on the <strong> tag.
As far the the JQuery/Javascript goes, if you want to retrieve the content, it looks like
var foo = document.getElementById.innerHTMl("id");
However, this requires you to have an id in your tags which is probably the best, if not
'standard' method of retrieving the content that is within the tag.
After reading your comments, i am editing this post:
The best way to get the parent elements is to use the JQUery .parent() function. I'd imagine that you would just recursively state something like this:
var foo = $("nameofelement").parent();
I hope this is more of what your looking for.
Thanks for contributing everybody. At last I made it myself with the following code.
$(document.body).click(function(e){
var Tags=[], Target=e.target, stat_msg="";
Tags.push(Target.tagName);
while($(Target).parent().get(0).tagName!=="BODY")
{
Tags.push($(Target).parent().get(0).tagName);
Target=$(Target).parent();
}
Tags.push("BODY");
for(i=Tags.length;i>0;i--)
stat_msg=stat_msg+Tags[i-1]+" ";
alert(stat_msg);
});

Dynamically generated script not working

I have a contenteditable div where you type javascript which gets outputted into an empty script tag.
<div contenteditable="true" id="script-generator"></div>
<div id="save-script">Save</div>
<script type="text/shorthand" id="script">
</script>
So you write your script in the div, click save and I have some JS which gets the html of the contenteditable div and adds it to an empty script tag.
$('#save-script').click(function() {
var script = $('#script-generator').html();
$('#script').html(script);
});
So far this works. But the generated script has no effect. The browser must not recognise the script because it wasn't there on page load? How do I make the script take effect without reloading the page?
Note: The type/shortand on the script is because I'm using a plugin which converts shortand words into actual Javascript. So the user would just need to write shorthand into the contenteditable div, and the plugin would convert that to JS. This might be adding to the problem?
I don't think it works to modify an existing <script> element. If you want the script to be executed you need to add a new element.
$('#save-script').click(function() {
var script = $('#script-generator').html();
$("#script").text(script);
ShortHand.parseScripts();
});
Correct - you need to create the script tag to have it execute after load.
$('head').append($('<script />', {html: script}));
...which means you can remove your empty script tag.
I have set up a test that's similar to what you have been looking for. Take a look and see if that helps.
Working Demo
Test code:
<div id="script" style="display:none">
alert(4+4);
</div>
<input id="sLoad" type="button" value="Load/Execute Script" />
$('#sLoad').click(function(){
//You may want to append to the head
$('<script/>').append( $('#script').html() ).appendTo('#script');
});

Add button after script tag

I have a javascript that I want my users to be able to put on their sites. In this javascript, I want to generate a simple button, that is located exactly where the javascript has been pasted into the site. How can I do this? It would be simple if I could give my <script> tag an id and then just getting the element with the specific ID and appending after it, but I can't.
For example if I have something like this:
<body>
<p>test para</p>
<p>test para</p><p>test para</p><p>test para</p>
<p>test para</p>
<div>test div</div>
<script src="embed.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<div>last div</div>
</body>
I want my button to be placed right between test div and last div (before or after the script tag, it doesn't matter). Can I do this?
Could you just use after -
$("div:contains('test div')").after('<input type="button"/>');
This would obviously be better if you could give the 'div' an id or a class rather than finding it by the text it contains.
jQuery can find a script tag using -
$("script[src='embed.js']").after('<input type="button"/>')
Demo - http://jsfiddle.net/7GPx7/1
embedding JavaScript something you may want to consider is your visitors may not have jQuery enabled on their sites, so you could bloat the call by loading jQuery or construct your requirement in pure JavaScript.
The embed snippet for your visitors
<script id="eduard_luca" src="http://cdn.example.com/embed.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
embed.js
var element = document.createElement('a');
element.setAttribute('href','http://google.com');
element.innerHTML = 'Click Me';
document.getElementById("eduard_luca").appendChild(element);
I Hope this help you with your project.

Using jquery-template {{wrap}} to wrap plain text

With jQuery templates, I'm trying to use the {{wrap}} template tag to wrap the results of another template. This second template renders plain text, not HTML. I currently get an empty string where I expect to get the plain text rendered by the wrapped template.
If I surround the plain text with some HTML elements, like a <div> tag, then everything works fine, but I get the <div> rendered into the results. I would be fine creating a dummy tag around my contents in order to get the {{html}} tag to work, but I wouldn't want it in the rendered results.
I will also want to use this same wrapper, if possible to wrap templates that actually do produce HTML as well, so it would be good if the same wrapper template can work for both cases.
Here is my code:
$("#x").html($("#myTmpl").tmpl());
<div id="x" />
<script id="myTmpl" type="text/x-jquery-tmpl">
The following wraps some non-HTML content: {{wrap "#wrapper"}} help {{/wrap}}
</script>
<script id="wrapper" type="text/x-jquery-tmpl">
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
Wrapped content: {{html $item.html}}
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</script>
This code can be found at this jsFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/bernardchen1/BYdeg/
I eventually found a solution. I created use a dummy tag to wrap the plain text (or even the html that is produced by other templates), and then I created a function that I pass into the template invocation that can strip out the dummy tag. I invoke it like this: {{html $data.clean($item)}}. The "clean" function needs access to the content being returned by the inner template, which I found to be $item.wrapped[0]. Once I had that content, I could get its inner html to return from the clean function.
I'm concerned about whether I'm supposed to be accessing $item.wrapped though.
Ultimately, I may just try refactoring my code to not require this dummy tag and the cleaning function.
This solution can be found here: http://jsfiddle.net/bernardchen1/nmzWt/
Edit: there is another solution to call appendTo to attach the template html to another DOM element, and then grab the data back out.
