I recently have come across with a need for some type of "translation"-type that could translate specific text fields or areas to other languages.
I want when user will write texts in **<input type="text" id="texttotranslate"/>** html control and after space the text should get converted to local language i.e. Hindi, Arabic Finnish
I am not sure if something like this even is out there - but I thought this might be a good place to ask.
Link 1
I came accorss this links as well but i want it Javascript / ajax solution to get it done
Link 2
I went through this and create my APPID
I am getting link 1 working in my C# console application but
i want a javascript solution for the same. ie. when i write a word in the text box it should get converted to local language i set .
if you are using Bing translator in your website, then there is no need to write any code in C#. You can use the Bing URL directly to translate the words.
Please refer to the following URL: http://basharkokash.com/post/Bing-Translator-for-developers.aspx
One option would be to put the Microsoft Translator widget on your site (http://www.microsofttranslator.com/widget). Mark up the fields that you don't want translated using the class="notranslate" tag.
Alternatively, if you want to use the API, I recommend following the tutorials here:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/translation/p/gettingstarted1.aspx
and
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/translation/p/gettingstarted2.aspx
While the second link does it in ASP.NET, instead of JavaScript, it should give you a rough idea for how to do it. At the very least I recommend getting your access token server side, using ASP.NET, PHP or something similar, so your Client ID and Client Secret are not in-the-clear on your site.
Finally, take a look here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff512385.aspx, for the MSDN documentation on the AJAX API, including how to access it using JavaScript.

Solution: I used PYTHON and retrieved the text using SELENIUM, since I had to login and it was easier using automated chrome. Thanks!
I've a web URL which returns a plain text.
The URL Looks like this:
http://xxx.xx.xxx.x/cgi-bin/p05_equip_sample.cgi?_equipId=7&_op_type=1
and it returns a plain text like this one:
'' 4017,机房UPS,ENP_UPS_NXC304060K[COM]^2,Input Voltage of Phase A,240.500000,V,1581995093,0,1,1,2,2;3,Input Voltage of Phase B,234.100006,V,1581995093,0,1,1,2,2;4,''
which are values from different sensors that I want to include into a JS Heatmap plugin.
What I need to do is include all that text into a var so I can extract the characters that I need (I know it's not the best solution, but text position never changes, only values).
I tried to use Jquery with GET but I think I'm missing something and with other methods I get a CORS warning. I need to do it on client side so no NODE.JS or PHP I guess.
Thanks!!!
Put it simple I want to make small currency exchange app (pet project- I want free API( 1000 requests per month including more currency is a perfect option)). I dont like the free APIs I have found so far but I have found this website https://bg.coinmill.com/ and I wanna use it for my purpose. Reading an answer to similar question:
The only way to make use of JS in Flutter is using WebView.
Dart compiles to JS only for browser applications, for Flutter it compiles >to native machine code.
convert js code direcly to dart, using package js
package JS doesn't convert JS, it just creates proxies for JS functions to >be able to call them from Dart, but that is also only supported in Dart web >applications.
Put it simple it isn't possible without hitting some compilation errors and some workarounds. However https://github.com/pichillilorenzo/flutter_inappbrowser looks promissing. Embedding the webpage that will look ugly and I won't have any control over ui/settings. My options now are looking for another free currency API or trying to find a workaround. I incline for another API, but not sure which one. Any suggestions ?
So basically what you actually want to do is use that website to do the currency conversion in the background (enter value, press "Convert"), then display the result in your Flutter app? You don't need javascript for that.
After entering pressing the submit button, the site simply redirects you to a different page (GET request) with an URL like this:
https://bg.coinmill.com/CAD_USD.html?CAD=22
Use dart's http library to perform the same request with the right currency/value parameters. The result of the request contains the source code of the web page.
Instead of displaying the web page, you just need to read the value you need from the source code of the web page:
<div id="currencyBox1">
<input class="currencyField" ... value="16.46" ...>
САЩ долар (USD)
</div>
So, how I understand your question, you have some js library, and you want to use it from Dart?
If question so, yes, you can do it using Dart JS Intertop. The more information in the link.
Edit
Yes, you are right, you can call js from Flutter only using evalJavascript function from flutter_webview_plugin.
You can use Firebase Cloud Functions and wrap your function in a callable function. You'll have all node js environment and Dart code will only call a function.
I am trying to figure out how to develop a multi-lingual website. My background in HTML, JS, CSS is not that broad (I have started only a week ago), therefore my understanding of this may not be the best.
For our example we will be creating three language mutations:
English (main one)
Spanish
French.
Here is what I have come across when I started searching for this under uncle Google.
The longest solution I can imagine: Create three folders named en, es, fr. These will contain the replica of the original webpage (e.g. index.html), but will be translated to respective language. Then on the top panel, you will have a button which upon clicking it will redirect used to a different folder (link is hard coded here). This solution is feasible if we are dealing with very small websites (with a few pages).
Second option I have found, was using WordPress plugins (found quite a few of those). Unfortunately, this solution is not viable, as I am not using wordpress to create a website.
Next option (which I believe would be the best), is to have one page for all language mutations, but instead of real text, you would insert some attribute with the key, which will determine what phrase should be inserted here. It could look like data-toTranslate('sTitle') (making this up). The question now would be, where would you store your texts? One option would be into a database, but I have not worked with them (under websites), therefore I would prefer something like a text file / csv file / or something like this. The problem I have with this solution (except the fact that I don't know how to do it yet :) ) is that I am not quite sure how website would react to this in terms of loading time. Maybe this is the best solution for a developer, yet the worst for the website?
Any comments, links or suggestions which would point me in the right direction would be more than welcome!
EDIT: as this question may seem too broad, I will try to trim it a bit down.
As I believe the option number three would be the best, then I would like to know the following things:
1) What do I need to create when I want to store simple key - value pairs (such as in this translation)? If I were in C#, I would e.g. create either simple XML or CSV file and I would parse it during runtime.
2) Can I achieve this with a simple JavaScript, or do I need to create some specific controllers / directives with AngularJS?
Create the english version of the website statically, as this is the main language. You should have a separate ID for every text element (and don't use obe word ids such as "a" "b" etc., so you can easily fibd them later.
Have a file on your server (text file works too) with the ids of fhe text tags, and the text in a format like
welcome-text | ["Welcome to the website" in Spanish]
-------------
Etc...
(Note: yoh need to store the translated sentences, but I don't know Spanish nor France)
Name your file to something like Spanish.txt.
When the page loads, download this file with javascript trough AJAX (this is where the static english version kicks in as a fallback), loop trough the text file and set the texts to the translated version.
You can of course use PHP with MysQL too, but I thought it is a bit overkill for 2 languages.
And yes, this can be done with 100% pure javascript, not even JQuery is required.
I normally using PHP to handle this multilingual. When every moment user view the website, it will set the default language to ENG. But, when the user select other language as the website display language, the website will reload and the PHP code will call the respective language folder to display all the selected language on the website. So, I think you should having few language folder, then dynamic calling each of the folder to get the keywords words and display it.
I am trying to create a new language translator engine (only two language available a<->b) its just to learn PHP & Mysql etc. a little bit better. Now I have a search form where a user can enter a value and a php code which check if that word is available to give the result in an antoher fix language. But a user enter a value ex. "food" and submit it then the url should look like that
https://domain.com/search/food
How is it possible to get a permalink without using a CMS. I only want to do all as static page and PHP, MYSQL AND JS nothing more if possible
I see that already on a few pages but not sure how to do that and hope you could give me only a few advices.
Unless you want to store a file for every single possible word, this isn't possible with straight PHP, you will have to leverage your server's functionality.
Assuming you are using Apache, check the documentation for mod_rewrite.
But, you could also simply use URL parameters, which is easier and will act pretty much the same in practice. e.g.:
https://domain.com/search.php?term=food
PHP:
$_GET['term'] // => "food"
http://php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.get.php
Is there anyway to get access to stackoverflow's awesome tagging system? I would like to borrow Stack's awesome auto-suggest and tag mini-explanation boxes for my own site. Obviously, I can use the jQuery UI auto-suggest for tags but I would really like to also include the cool little tag descriptions as well. If not, can someone tell me where all these explanation/descriptions came from so that I can implement a similar system?
tageditornew.js
Line 308:
$.get("/filter/tags", {q: a,newstyle: !0}, "json").done(function(c) {
C["t_" + a] = c;
StackExchange.helpers.removeSpinner();
b(c)
})
This might help you out!
It turns out that,
the API url is this:
https://stackoverflow.com/filter/tags?q=STRING&newstyle=BOOLEAN
q - Query text.
newstyle - Require new style or not. Result in new style will be returned in JSON with additional information such as synonyms and excerpt.
DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/DerekL/bXXb7/ (with Cross Domain Requests jQuery plguin)
For example:
https://stackoverflow.com/filter/tags?q=htm
would give you:
"html|99829\nhtml5|16359\nxhtml|4143\nhtml-parsing|1461\nhtml-lists|1328\nhtml5-video|949"
where 99829 is the amount of questions. It took me 15 minutes looking at the source code to find out this api. -_-"
Putting in javascript in new style gives you this: here
[{"Name":"javascript","Synonyms":"classic-javascript|javascript-execution","Count":223223,"Excerpt":"JavaScript is a dynamic language commonly used for scripting in web browsers. It is NOT the same as Java. Use this tag for questions regarding ECMAScript and its dialects/implementations (excluding ActionScript and JScript).

Questions that don't include a framework/library tag, such as jQuery, implies that the question requires a pure JavaScript answer."},{"Name":"javascript-events","Synonyms":"javascript-event","Count":5707,"Excerpt":"Creating and handling JavaScript events inline in HTML or through a script."},{"Name":"facebook-javascript-sdk","Synonyms":"","Count":992,"Excerpt":"Facebook's JavaScript SDK provides a rich set of client-side functionality for accessing Facebook's server-side API calls.

What you can get from there:
All tags start with javascript
Synonyms
Tag counts
Nice tag descriptions
If you're looking for high-level logic, in a nutshell it's just a custom auto-complete that's blazing-fast.
Whenever you type a tag (i.e. a new word or one separated by a space from previous tags), an AJAX request would be made to the server with a JSON object which is then interpreted by the client-side script and presented in the usable layout.
Comparing the autocomplete JSON objects for letter "h" and word "html" should give you enough insight into how this particular implementation works (if prompted, these can be opened with any text editor).
On a somewhat unrelated note: the autocomplete responses have to be fast. Depending on the complexity of the data autocomplete is run against, you may find how IMDb magic search works intriguing.
Update:
Seeing your comment about accessing the content of the tag library, this may in fact be more of a meta question. I struggle to think of a scenario where using an API if any or just the tag library from an external resource would be beneficial to SO - however content here is provided under Creative Commons so you may be able to use it with proper attribution.
