<div id = "board>
<div>{abc</div>
<div>def</div>
<div>ghi}</div>
</div>
I've already done this by span-wrapping all of the char first before comparing if it is { or }. But that is too slow, i need to reverse the procedure, is it possible to get the char position relative to the parent div?
Intended Output is
<div id = "board>
<div><span>{</span>abc</div>
<div>def</div>
<div>ghi<span>}</span></div>
</div>
how about using contains() and replace()?
You want to use Regular Expressions:
var x = '<div id = "board>' +
'<div>{abc</div>' +
'<div>def</div>' +
'<div>ghi}</div>' +
'</div>'; // or... get element by id 'board'
var rgx1 = /{/;
var rgx2 = /}/;
var y = x.replace(rgx1, "<span>{</span>");
y = y.replace(rgx2, "<span>}</span>");
if you think you have more than 1 occurrence of { or }, you can add "g" to the regex's:
var rgx1 = /{/g;
var rgx2 = /}/g;
Assuming this is the markup:
<div id="board">
<div>{abc</div>
<div>def</div>
<div>ghi}<div>
</div>
And your intended output is:
<div id="board">
<span>abcdefghi</span>
</div>
You can do this using jQuery/javascript like this:
var textNodes = $("#board").find("div");
var text = "";
for(var i=0;i<textNodes.length;i++) {
text = text + textNodes[i].text();
$("#board").remove(textNodes[i]);
}
var spans = text.split("}");
var textToAppend = "";
for(i=0;i<spans.length - 1 ;i++)
textToAppend = textToAppend + "<span>"+spans[i].split("{")[1]+"</span>";
$("#board").append(textToAppend);
Is this the solution you are looking for?
Edit 1:
If you need just the position of lets say b as 2, and d as 4?
Here is the code.
var textNodes = $("#board").find("div");
var text = "";
for(var i=0;i<textNodes.length;i++) {
text = text + textNodes[i].text();
}
var codeBlocks = text.split("}");
var firstBlock = codeBlocks[0];
var getCharPosInBlock = function (character) {
if(character === "}") return firstBlock.length;
return firstBlock.indexOf(character);
}
To get the required result using javascript looping:
var textNodes = $("#board").find("div");
for(var i=0;i<textNodes.length;i++) {
var value = textNodes[i].text()
if(value.indexOf("{") > 0)
textNodes[i].text(value.replace("{", "<span>{</span>"));
if(value.indexOf("}") > 0)
textNodes[i].text(value.replace("{", "<span>}</span>"));
}

I am trying to create a score keeper display.
I want to keep track of the score using html and javascript. I have everything figured out I think but I can't figure out why the line doesn't break here.
Relevant code:
var br = document.createElement("br");
var nes = document.createTextNode("---------");
scorechart.appendChild(br);
scorechart.appendChild(nc);
if(tot) {
scorechart.appendChild(br);
scorechart.appendChild(nes);
scorechart.appendChild(br);
scorechart.appendChild(tot);
}
(For a full view: https://hastebin.com/osuduluvaj.js)
It breaks for everything but the "------" part: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/240883852350980096/497957073481629696/sAAAAASUVORK5CYII.png
(I cant upload images yet as a new member)
Thank you :)
document.createElement() creates a single element, which you can only append to the DOM once. If you want to reuse the <br> element you created, you need to clone it and you can insert the cloned copy into the DOM. See: Node.cloneNode().
var score = [];
var scoreadd_button = document.querySelector('#scoreadd-button');
var scoreadd_input = document.querySelector('#scoreadd-input');
let sc1 = 0;
let sc2 = 0;
var scorechart = document.querySelector('.scores');
function totalScores() {
var i;
var sum = 0;
for (i = 0; i < score.length; i++) {
sum += score[i];
}
return sum;
}
function newScore(amm) {
score.push(amm);
if (!score[1]) {
var nc = document.createTextNode(amm)
} else {
var nc = document.createTextNode(" + " + amm);
}
if (sc1 == 0) {
sc1 = amm;
} else {
sc2 = amm;
}
if (sc2 != 0) {
var tot = document.createTextNode("= " + totalScores());
sc1 = amm;
sc2 = 0;
}
var br = document.createElement("br");
var nes = document.createTextNode("---------");
scorechart.appendChild(nc);
if (tot) {
scorechart.appendChild(br.cloneNode(true));
scorechart.appendChild(nes);
scorechart.appendChild(br.cloneNode(true));
scorechart.appendChild(tot);
}
}
scoreadd_button.addEventListener('click', function() {
var amm = scoreadd_input.value;
newScore(parseInt(amm, 10));
});
<button id="scoreadd-button">button</button>
<input type="text" id="scoreadd-input" />
<div class="scores"></div>
Okay so I fixed the issue by instead of using a variable just creating the element in the statement.
var nes = document.createTextNode("---------");
scorechart.appendChild(document.createElement("br"));
scorechart.appendChild(nc);
if(tot) {
scorechart.appendChild(document.createElement("br"));
scorechart.appendChild(nes);
scorechart.appendChild(document.createElement("br"));
scorechart.appendChild(tot);
}
Thank you :)
You just need to defined unique variables for each new created element on javascript, otherwise they will counted as one.
This code should works
var scorechart = document.querySelector('.scores');
var br = document.createElement("br");
var br2 = document.createElement("br");
var nes = document.createTextNode("---------");
scorechart.appendChild(br);
scorechart.appendChild(nes);
scorechart.appendChild(br2);
<span class="scores">

</span>
after text
I am using pagedown for posting codes. I know how to change color of specific words inside the HTML document i.e. using the sample code below
<script>
var text = document.getElementById("wmd-post");
var str = text.innerHTML,
reg = /if|else|span|/ig; //g is to replace all occurances
//fixing a bit
var toStr = String(reg);
var color = (toStr.replace('\/g', '|')).substring(1);
//split it
var colors = color.split("|");
if (colors.indexOf("if") > -1) {
str = str.replace(/if/g, '<span style="color:#069;">if</span>');
}
document.getElementById("wmd-post").innerHTML = str;
</script>
I also want to know how to change color for tags such as <span> ,<div>, <p> When i try to add them in my code above it would not work
i.e.
var text = document.getElementById("wmd-post");
var str = text.innerHTML,
reg = /<span>|</div>|/ig; //g is to replace all occurances
//fixing a bit
var toStr = String(reg);
var color = (toStr.replace('\/g', '|')).substring(1);
//split it
var colors = color.split("|");
if (colors.indexOf("<span>") > -1) {
str = str.replace(/<span>/g, '<span style="color:#069;"><span></span>');
}
document.getElementById("wmd-post").innerHTML = str;
What approach should i use
Figured out a way to do it
<div id="wmd-post">
Some other words
<p><span></p>
<p></span></p>
Some more words
</div>
<script>
var text = document.getElementById("wmd-post");
var str = text.innerHTML,
str = str.replace(/<\/span>/g, '<span style="color:red"></span></span>');
str = str.replace(/<span>/g, '<span style="color:red"><span></span>');
document.getElementById("wmd-post").innerHTML = str;
</script>
Suppose I have this string:
"hello" in a <span> tag, and I want to execute a code for each letter (example: hide, change opacity, etc..). How can I make this with JS/Jquery without having to do this:
<span>h</span><span>e</span><span>l</span><span>l</span><span>o</span>
No and yes. As far as I know, no, a span tag around each letter is necessary, but, yes, you can swing it in JavaScript. A couple examples here, using this concept to randomly apply a color and size to each character.
forEach loop method:
JSFiddle
<span>hello</span>
<script>
var span = document.querySelector('span')
var str = span.innerHTML
span.innerHTML = ''
str.split('').forEach(function (elem) {
var newSpan = document.createElement('span')
newSpan.style.color = "#"+((1<<24)*Math.random()|0).toString(16)
newSpan.style.fontSize = (Math.random() * (36 - 10) + 10) + 'px'
newSpan.innerHTML = elem
span.appendChild(newSpan)
})
</script>
setTimeout method:
JSFiddle
<span>hello</span>
<script>
var span = document.querySelector('span')
var str_arr = span.innerHTML.split('')
span.innerHTML = ''
var ii = 0
~function crazy(ii, str_arr, target) {
if ( ii < str_arr.length ) {
var newSpan = document.createElement('span')
newSpan.style.color = "#"+((1<<24)*Math.random()|0).toString(16)
newSpan.style.fontSize = (Math.random() * (72 - 36) + 36) + 'px'
newSpan.innerHTML = str_arr[ii]
target.appendChild(newSpan)
setTimeout(function () {
crazy(ii += 1, str_arr, target)
}, 1000)
}
}(ii, str_arr, span)
</script>
You can do this.
In html
<span id="my-text">hello</span>
<div id="split-span" ></div>
In Javascript,
var text = $('#my-text').html().split('');
for(var i=0; i<text.length; i++){
$('#split-span').append('<span>'+text[i]+'</span>');
}
You can do this fairly easily in vanilla javaScript without the need of a library like jquery. You could use split to convert your string into an array. This puts each letter into an index of the array. From here you can add markup to each index (or letter) with a loop.
example:
var str = "hello";
var res = str.split('');
for( var i = 0; i < res.length; i++ ){
res[ i ] = '<span>' + res[ i ] + '</span>'
}
The following codes doesn't work and the result is broken because there are white spaces in a HTML tag.
HTML:
<div>Lorem ipsum <a id="demo" href="demo" rel="demo">dolor sit amet</a>, consectetur adipiscing elit.</div>
Javascript:
var div = document.getElementsByTagName('div')[0];
div.innerHTML = div.innerHTML.replace(/\s/g, '<span class="space"> </span>');
How to replace replace white spaces which are not in HTML tags?
It would be a better idea to actually use the DOM functions rather than some unreliable string manipulation using a regexp. splitText is a function of text nodes that allows you to split text nodes. It comes in handy here as it allows you to split at spaces and insert a <span> element between them. Here is a demo: http://jsfiddle.net/m5Qe8/2/.
var div = document.querySelector("div");
// generates a space span element
function space() {
var elem = document.createElement("span");
elem.className = "space";
elem.textContent = " ";
return elem;
}
// this function iterates over all nodes, replacing spaces
// with space span elements
function replace(elem) {
for(var i = 0; i < elem.childNodes.length; i++) {
var node = elem.childNodes[i];
if(node.nodeType === 1) {
// it's an element node, so call recursively
// (e.g. the <a> element)
replace(node);
} else {
var current = node;
var pos;
while(~(pos = current.nodeValue.indexOf(" "))) {
var next = current.splitText(pos + 1);
current.nodeValue = current.nodeValue.slice(0, -1);
current.parentNode.insertBefore(space(), next);
current = next;
i += 2; // childNodes is a live array-like object
// so it's necessary to advance the loop
// cursor as well
}
}
}
}
You can deal with the text content of the container, and ignore the markup.
var div = document.getElementsByTagName('div')[0];
if(div.textContent){
div.textContent=div.textContent.replace(/(\s+)/g,'<span class="space"> </span>';
}
else if(div.innerText){
div.innerText=div.innerText.replace(/(\s+)/g,'<span class="space"> </span>';
}
First split the string at every occurrence of > or <. Then fit together all parts to a string again by replacing spaces only at the even parts:
var div = document.getElementsByTagName('div')[0];
var parts = div.innerHTML.split(/[<>]/g);
var newHtml = '';
for (var i = 0; i < parts.length; i++) {
newHtml += (i % 2 == 0 ? parts[i].replace(/\s/g, '<span class="space"> </span>') : '<' + parts[i] + '>');
}
div.innerHTML = newHtml;
Also see this example.
=== UPDATE ===
Ok, the result of th IE split can be different then the result of split of all other browsers. With following workaround it should work:
var div = document.getElementsByTagName('div')[0];
var sHtml = ' ' + div.innerHTML;
var sHtml = sHtml.replace(/\>\</g, '> <');
var parts = sHtml.split(/[<>]/g);
var newHtml = '';
for (var i = 0; i < parts.length; i++) {
if (i == 0) {
parts[i] = parts[i].substr(1);
}
newHtml += (
i % 2 == 0 ?
parts[i].replace(/\s/g, '<span class="space"> </span>') :
'<' + parts[i] + '>'
);
}
div.innerHTML = newHtml;
Also see this updated example.
=== UPDATE ===
Ok, I have completly changed my script. It's tested with IE8 and current firefox.
function parseNodes(oElement) {
for (var i = oElement.childNodes.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
var oCurrent = oElement.childNodes[i];
if (oCurrent.nodeType != 3) {
parseNodes(oElement.childNodes[i]);
} else {
var sText = (typeof oCurrent.nodeValue != 'undefined' ? oCurrent.nodeValue : oCurrent.textContent);
var aParts = sText.split(/\s+/g);
for (var j = 0; j < aParts.length; j++) {
var oNew = document.createTextNode(aParts[j]);
oElement.insertBefore(oNew, oCurrent);
if (j < aParts.length - 1) {
var oSpan = document.createElement('span');
oSpan.className = 'space';
oElement.insertBefore(oSpan, oCurrent);
var oNew = document.createTextNode(' ');
oSpan.appendChild(oNew);
}
}
oElement.removeChild(oCurrent);
}
}
}
var div = document.getElementsByTagName('div')[0];
parseNodes(div);
Also see the new example.
for(var i=0; i<myJSONObject.model.length; i++){
var create_div = document.createElement('div');
create_div.id = 'model_id'+i;
create_div.innerHTML = myJSONObject.model[i].model_name;
var assign_innerHTML = create_div.innerHTML;
var create_anchor = document.createElement('a');
document.getElementById('models').appendChild(create_div);
document.getElementById(create_div.id).appendChild(create_anchor);
}
for ex the myJSONObject.model.length is 2
the output is like this
<div id = 'model_id0'>XXXXX<a> </a></div>
<div id = 'model_id1'>XXXXX<a> </a></div> */
but instead of above the output sholud be like this
<div id = model_id0> <a> xxxxxx</a></div>
<div id = model_id1> <a> xxxxxx</a></div>
how to append it inside of the innerhtml
any one plz reply !!!!
two suggestions:
1.) instead of assigning innerHTML to model_idx div assign the model name to its child a. and 2nd instead of appending it to DOM in every loop do it after completing the loop as to minimize frequent the DOM Update ie by:
objContainer = document.createElement('div');
for(....)
{
var create_div = document.createElement('div');
create_div.id = 'model_id'+i;
var create_anchor = document.createElement('a');
create_anchor.innerHTML = myJSONObject.model[i].model_name;
create_div.appendChild(create_anchor);
objContainer.appendChild(create_div);
}
document.getElementById('models').appendChild(objContainer);
I would go along the lines of:
var i = 0,
m = myJSONObject.model,
l = m.length,
models = document.getElementById("models");
for(; i < j; i++) {
var model = m[i];
var create_div = document.createElement("div");
create_div.id = "model_id" + i;
create_div.innerHTML = "<a>" + model.model_name + "</a>";
models.appendChild(create_div);
}
Unless you specifically need to do something to the anchor itself (other than set its innerHTML), there's no need to create a reference to an element for it. If you do need to do something specific to that anchor, then in that case have this, instead:
EDIT: As per your comment, you DO want to do something to the anchor, so go with this (now updated) option - assuming the anchor will always be a child of the div that has the ID you require. The reason "model_id" + i is being put in as a string is because that is exactly what is being passed into the HTML - the document has no clue what "i" is outside of javascript:
var i = 0,
m = myJSONObject.model,
l = m.length,
models = document.getElementById("models");
for(; i < j; i++) {
var model = m[i];
var create_div = document.createElement("div");
var create_anchor = document.createElement("a");
create_div.id = "model_id" + i;
create_anchor.innerHTML = model.model_name;
if(window.addEventListener) {
create_anchor.addEventListener("click", function() {
getModelData(1, this.parentNode.id);
}, false);
} else {
create_anchor.attachEvent("onclick", function() {
getModelData(1, this.parentNode.id);
});
}
create_div.appendChild(create_anchor);
models.appendChild(create_div);
}
