I am designing web page in slovak language. To be able to use meantioned language special characters such as á or ž, I am using this html code:
<html lang="sk">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
</head>
Now it works as expected but only when I hard code that kind of text into html file.
As soon as I use jquery to print them it breaks down and those characters are not correctly shown.
$("#myDiv").html("áž");
Am I supposed to specify something in jquery or is there another way to overcome this problem?
You can pass the numeric entity for that character into the html() function to achieve that,
Try a sample,
$('body').html('Ξ');
DEMO
I think you may be use some tricks here
Try this
$("#myDiv").html($("<div>").html("áž").text());
Or simply try this
$("#myDiv").text("áž");
It is quite Easy you can do the following
Use any special Character u want
$("#mydiv").text("*&^&*^*&^*");
Here is the Demo

I want to remove text in between the some html tags.
For example : <html xmln><head>............<body lang="">after this I need the text
I am trying to remove <html> to <body> part. I have used substring methode and it is working. But in real scenario this <html ..> ... can come multiple times. I have to remove only those and text in between them.
Any help will be appreciated
I have tried substring and regex but not able remove repeated things.
perhaps something like this..
string.replace(/(<html)(.*?)(<body lang="">)/g, '');
I'm looking for a Javascript equivalent of a technique I've been using in PHP. That is, to place even the most basic page setup:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width initial-scale=1.0">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge">
...in a php file like 'doc_start.php' and then start every page in my site with...
<?php require_once('/path/to/doc_start.php); ?>
Now I need to begin a project that's strictly HTML and JS (no PHP) and want a similar way to avoid duplicating basic, common HTML elements. Obviously, I want to do more than this very basic stuff, like import JQuery in every page, link to a common stylesheet, etc. Again, all easy in PHP, but I'm still kind of a newbie in JS.
I've read about HTML5 includes, but can't seem to find anything that addresses what I want to do
In order to import other pages into your current document, you need to use a link tag.
For example....
<head>
<link rel="import" href="/path/to/imports/stuff.html">
</head>
This will allow you to reference other html, css or javascript documents into your page without copying and pasting the same code within each page.

Javascript and PHP are different languages for very different purposes. But assuming you have some element you don't want to repeat some elements one solution is the following:
Save the HTML elements that you don't want to keep repeating as a string. Then use the .innerHTML property to add elements.
The .innerHTML property stores the mark up of an element as a string.
For example, if we have the following <div>:
<div class="example"> <br> Hello there this is a test! </div>
...and we use .innerHTML:
console.log(document.querySelector(".example").innerHTML);
It will output "<br> Hello there this is a test!".
We can add to the .innerHTML using the += operator. So if you want to add something inside the body it's as simple as:
var something = "some HTML";
document.body.innerHTML += something;
Hope this was what you were looking for!
I want to make letters like 'å ä ö' visible. I need to replace these letters with ascii code, I guess.
I have tried jquery and javascript, but it did not work. Look at the following code please:
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
jQuery("#body").html(
jQuery("#body").html().replace('ä', 'å')
);
document.body.innerHTML = document.body.innerHTML.replace(/ä/g, 'å');
</script>
</head>
<body id="body">
<div class="blog-masthead">
<div class="container">
<nav class="blog-nav">
<a class="blog-nav-item active" href="index.php">Inlägg</a>
</nav>
</div>
</div>
You can achieve what you want using one of the three methods below.
codepen
JQuery
// using a regex on the first parameter of replace,
// picks all the 'ä' instead of the first one
var replaced = $("body").html().replace(/ä/g,'å');
$("body").html(replaced);
JavaScript
// using a regex on the first parameter of replace,
// picks all the 'ä' instead of the first one
document.body.innerHTML = document.body.innerHTML.replace(/ä/g, 'å');
Better Solution
A better alternative to the two previous code sample is to convert your file to the right encoding. In order to do that, make sure you this snippet in the head of you HTML document.
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
If that's not working, you also have to make sure the file is saved with encoding UTF-8. If you're using Notepad++, this is done via Encoding > Encode in UTF-8.
I have the following javascript, loading my menu on all of my pages
<script type = "text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#menudiv").load("menu.html");
});
</script>
I havent included the menu as it is a completely standard list, formatted to look like it does. One of the menu option contains the character "å", how can I make my page display this character correctly?
This usually happens when the server doesn't set the encoding of menu.html correctly. Make sure the correct encoding is in the headers. (see this document) Especially, make sure that the Content-Type header is correct and that you have a <meta charset="..."> element in menu.html
The encoding of the existing page doesn't matter at all! Whenever you download something, the browser will look for the encoding of the new data, convert that to Unicode and only then, merge the new data with what it already has.
add this HTML Meta tag in your page:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
Or in HTML5 Way :
<meta charset="iso-8859-1">
Add the following meta tag to the head of your HTML document:
<meta charset="iso-8859-1">
Use the HTML entity code for displaying this and other ISO characters:
å or å

I have a url like this : http://www.refskou.dk/safari-%F8.html
The file is named like this: safari-ø.html
The file consists of this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<script>
alert(this.location);
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
But it does not print out /safari-%F8.html nor safari-ø.html
It prints out the question mark indicating that it does not know of the character "ø".
All I want is to print out the URL as I see it in the address bar.
Please give me a hint. This is only a problem in Safari as far as I have testet.
I need to tell you that I do not have control over what kind of charset used on the page. I can only execute javascript :-)
In response to this answer.
The reason for the lack of control, is that I do a script that can be included to hopefully any webpage, and so I have no control over what kind of charset used. The included script can ofcouse have its own charset, introduced by the charset attribute on the "script" tag but I cannot get it to work.
unescape('/safari-%F8.html') == 'safari-ø.html'
Note that Safari still gives you a ?, but Chrome shows either a %F8 or ø
In Safari (nevermind):
var str = '/safari-%F8.html';
alert(str.replace(/%[A-F0-9]{2}/g, function(v){ return String.fromCharCode(parseInt(v.substr(1), 16)); }));
The above works on normal strings, but Safari is seeing that character as unicode 65533, and I'm not sure how to convert that back to ASCII 248...
Try the unescape javascript function:
alert(unescape(this.location));
I believe you'll need to specify a character set.
The first thing in your Head section...
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />

EDIT: I missed the part where the OP states he has no control over the character set on the page. I believe this is the root of the problem and wonder why he has no control over this.
Well I finally got it working. For some reason Safari cannot understand the strange characters when asking from this/window.location. But moving down a level to the document object and asking for the URL gives me just what I need. Why this is, I cannot tell you, but it solves the problem.
