I have system-generated links which I hide manually. Now I want to remove the link's title attributes sicne those are copied when the user copies surrounding text.

How should the function look like correctly?
I once got it working using this
function notitle() {
var mylist=document.getElementById("notitle");
var listitems= mylist.getElementsByTagName("a");
for (i=0; i<listitems.length; i++) {
listitems[i].removeAttribute("title");
}
}
but that only applied to the first link.
that is because you should't give the same id attribute to multiple elements. The id attribute must be unique all over your document. if not it only finds the first element with this id.
try class="notitle" instead of id="notitle" and you JS should look like this:
function notitle() {
var mylist=document.getElementsByClassName("notitle");
for (j=0; j<mylist.length; j++) {
var listitems= mylist[j].getElementsByTagName("a");
for (i=0; i<listitems.length; i++) {
listitems[i].removeAttribute("title");
}
}
}
As I've just learned this would not work cross browser, I would suggest to use a Javascript framework for this kind of propblem, because such a framework is crossbrowser compatible.
You can add the following script to your website to make it work in all browsers:
http://code.google.com/p/getelementsbyclassname/downloads/detail?name=getElementsByClassName-1.0.1.js
It's far easier if you would use some JavaScript Framework. Here an example for jQuery:
function notitle() {
$(".notitle a").removeAttr("title");
}
Your approach is correct but you're using the same id multiple times. Either make sure the id's are different, or use a generic class name and retrieve the elements that way.

I wan to collect all text from a list of elements obtains using
var elements =document.body.getElementsByTagName("*");
What I've done so far:
var text = '';
for (var i = 0; i < elements.length; i++) {
text = text + ' ' + elements[i].innerText
}
This will return duplicated text because it get the own text of each element plus its children's. I want to know if there is a way to get element's owntext using pure javasript?
I think the issue is that nested matching elements of a particular tag are being counted twice. The solution is to check if we've already visited a parent element and to skip the child if that's the case.
var text = '';
var visited = [];
for (var i = 0; i < elements.length; i++) {
var found = false;
for (var e = elements[i]; e != null; e = e.parentNode) {
if (visited.indexOf(e) > -1) {
found = true;
break;
}
}
if (!found) {
text = text + ' ' + elements[i].innerText;
visited.push(elements[i]);
}
}

I have this little javascript to add some classes to some hyperlinks to give them a nice effect. It works on any links inside an element with the class linkroll. However, when the link is nested within some elements and div's, it doesnt apply the effect. I am finding that querySelectorAll is not very consistent.
I was thinking if I rewrite this and use something like jQuery's each() function, I may have better results. Here's how it looks now:
var supports3DTransforms = document.body.style['webkitPerspective'] !== undefined || document.body.style['MozPerspective'] !== undefined;
function linkify() {
if (supports3DTransforms) {
var selector = '.linkroll a';
var nodes = document.querySelectorAll(selector);
for (var i = 0, len = nodes.length; i < len; i++) {
var node = nodes[i];
var sibling = node.nextSibling; // Do not apply to images
if (sibling.nodeName != "img") {
if (!node.className || !node.className.match(/roll/g)) {
node.className += ' roll';
node.innerHTML = '<span data-title="' + node.text + '">' + node.innerHTML + '</span>';
}
}
};
}
}
linkify();
How could I possibly rewrite document.querySelectorAll(selector); and use something like jQuery's each() instead?
Try this:
var supports3DTransforms = $('body').css('-webkit-perspective') !== undefined || $('body').css('MozPerspective') !== undefined;
function linkify() {
if (supports3DTransforms) {
$('.linkroll a').each(function (i, el) {
var $el = $(el),
$sibling = $el.next();
!$sibling.is('img') && !$el.hasClass('roll') && $el.addClass('roll').wrap('<span data-title="' + $el.text() + '"></span>');
});
}
}
linkify();

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);

I am having issues figuring out how to resolve the getElementsByClassName issue in IE. How would I best implement the robert nyman (can't post the link to it since my rep is only 1) resolution into my code? Or would a jquery resolution be better? my code is
function showDesc(name) {
var e = document.getElementById(name);
//Get a list of elements that have a class name of service selected
var list = document.getElementsByClassName("description show");
//Loop through those items
for (var i = 0; i < list.length; ++i) {
//Reset all class names to description
list[i].className = "description";
}
if (e.className == "description"){
//Set the css class for the clicked element
e.className += " show";
}
else{
if (e.className == "description show"){
return;
}
}}
and I am using it on this page dev.msmnet.com/services/practice-management to show/hide the description for each service (works in Chrome and FF). Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
I was curious to see what a jQuery version of your function would look like, so I came up with this:
function showDesc(name) {
var e = $("#" + name);
$(".description.show").removeClass("show");
if(e.attr("class") == "description") {
e.addClass("show");
} else if(e.hasClass("description") && e.hasClass("show")) {
return;
}
}
This should support multiple classes.
function getElementsByClassName(findClass, parent) {
parent = parent || document;
var elements = parent.getElementsByTagName('*');
var matching = [];
for(var i = 0, elementsLength = elements.length; i < elementsLength; i++){
if ((' ' + elements[i].className + ' ').indexOf(findClass) > -1) {
matching.push(elements[i]);
}
}
return matching;
}
You can pass in a parent too, to make its searching the DOM a bit faster.
If you want getElementsByClassName('a c') to match HTML <div class="a b c" /> then try changing it like so...
var elementClasses = elements[i].className.split(/\s+/),
matchClasses = findClass.split(/\s+/), // Do this out of the loop :)
found = 0;
for (var j = 0, elementClassesLength = elementClasses.length; j < elementClassesLength; j++) {
if (matchClasses.indexOf(elementClasses[j]) > -1) {
found++;
}
}
if (found == matchClasses.length) {
// Push onto matching array
}
If you want this function to only be available if it doesn't already exist, wrap its definition with
if (typeof document.getElementsByClassName != 'function') { }
Even easier jQuery solution:
$('.service').click( function() {
var id = "#" + $(this).attr('id') + 'rt';
$('.description').not(id).hide();
$( id ).show();
}
Why bother with a show class if you are using jQuery?
Heres one I put together, reliable and possibly the fastest. Should work in any situation.
function $class(className) {
var children = document.getElementsByTagName('*') || document.all;
var i = children.length, e = [];
while (i--) {
var classNames = children[i].className.split(' ');
var j = classNames.length;
while (j--) {
if (classNames[j] == className) {
e.push(children[i]);
break;
}
}
}
return e;
}
I used to implement HTMLElement.getElementByClassName(), but at least Firefox and Chrome, only find the half of the elements when those elements are a lot, instead I use something like (actually it is a larger function):
getElmByClass(clm, parent){
// clm: Array of classes
if(typeof clm == "string"){ clm = [clm] }
var i, m = [], bcl, re, rm;
if (document.evaluate) { // Non MSIE browsers
v = "";
for(i=0; i < clm.length; i++){
v += "[contains(concat(' ', #"+clc+", ' '), ' " + base[i] + " ')]";
}
c = document.evaluate("./"+"/"+"*" + v, parent, null, 5, null);
while ((node = c.iterateNext())) {
m.push(node);
}
}else{ // MSIE which doesn't understand XPATH
v = elm.getElementsByTagName('*');
bcl = "";
for(i=0; i < clm.length; i++){
bcl += (i)? "|":"";
bcl += "\\b"+clm[i]+"\\b";
}
re = new RegExp(bcl, "gi");
for(i = 0; i < v.length; i++){
if(v.className){
rm = v[i].className.match(bcl);
if(rm && rm.length){ // sometimes .match returns an empty array so you cannot use just 'if(rm)'
m.push(v[i])
}
}
}
}
return m;
}
I think there would be a faster way to iterate without XPATH, because RegExp are slow (perhaps a function with .indexOf, it shuld be tested), but it is working well
You can replace getElementsByClassName() with the following:
function getbyclass(n){
var elements = document.getElementsByTagName("*");
var result = [];
for(z=0;z<elements.length;z++){
if(elements[z].getAttribute("class") == n){
result.push(elements[z]);
}
}
return result;
}
Then you can use it like this:
getbyclass("description") // Instead of document.getElementsByClassName("description")
I am looking for a way to Show/ Hide some of the Radio buttons of a Radio button group using JavaScript.
How can this be achieved?
Thanks
The id attribute identifies the individual radio buttons. All of them will be related to the group by the name attribute
You can get the individual radio buttons using something like
var rbtn = document.getElementById('radioButton1');
Then set the display or visibility style to hide or show.
rbtn.style.display = 'none'; // 'block' or 'inline' if you want to show.
document.getElementById('myRadioButtonId').style.display = 'none'; //hide it
document.getElementById('myRadioButtonId').style.display = 'block'; //show it
That's a very generic question, so I can only offer a very generic answer. Using jQuery, for example:
$("#some-selector .of-some-kind .for-the-things-you-wish-to-hide").hide();
Of course, what you're selecting, and under what circumstances you want to hide it can dramatically impact the best way to go about the problem.
Apply a CSS class to the radiobuttons then use a loop to set the display = 'none' for each radiobutton.
Firstly, we need a cross-browser getElementsByClassName function
/*

var getElementsByClassName = function (className, tag, elm){
if (document.getElementsByClassName) {
getElementsByClassName = function (className, tag, elm) {
elm = elm || document;
var elements = elm.getElementsByClassName(className),
nodeName = (tag)? new RegExp("\\b" + tag + "\\b", "i") : null,
returnElements = [],
current;
for(var i=0, il=elements.length; i<il; i+=1){
current = elements[i];
if(!nodeName || nodeName.test(current.nodeName)) {
returnElements.push(current);
}
}
return returnElements;
};
}
else if (document.evaluate) {
getElementsByClassName = function (className, tag, elm) {
tag = tag || "*";
elm = elm || document;
var classes = className.split(" "),
classesToCheck = "",
xhtmlNamespace = "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml",
namespaceResolver = (document.documentElement.namespaceURI === xhtmlNamespace)? xhtmlNamespace : null,
returnElements = [],
elements,
node;
for(var j=0, jl=classes.length; j<jl; j+=1){
classesToCheck += "[contains(concat(' ', #class, ' '), ' " + classes[j] + " ')]";
}
try {
elements = document.evaluate(".//" + tag + classesToCheck, elm, namespaceResolver, 0, null);
}
catch (e) {
elements = document.evaluate(".//" + tag + classesToCheck, elm, null, 0, null);
}
while ((node = elements.iterateNext())) {
returnElements.push(node);
}
return returnElements;
};
}
else {
getElementsByClassName = function (className, tag, elm) {
tag = tag || "*";
elm = elm || document;
var classes = className.split(" "),
classesToCheck = [],
elements = (tag === "*" && elm.all)? elm.all : elm.getElementsByTagName(tag),
current,
returnElements = [],
match;
for(var k=0, kl=classes.length; k<kl; k+=1){
classesToCheck.push(new RegExp("(^|\\s)" + classes[k] + "(\\s|$)"));
}
for(var l=0, ll=elements.length; l<ll; l+=1){
current = elements[l];
match = false;
for(var m=0, ml=classesToCheck.length; m<ml; m+=1){
match = classesToCheck[m].test(current.className);
if (!match) {
break;
}
}
if (match) {
returnElements.push(current);
}
}
return returnElements;
};
}
return getElementsByClassName(className, tag, elm);
};
then use like so
var radioButtons = getElementsByClassName('myClassName', 'input');
var len = radioButtons.length;
for (var i = 0; i < len; i++)
radioButtons[i].style.display = 'none';
Everybody else has nailed it, so I'll put in a plug for the frameworks.
Using jquery or mootools or another framework makes this super easy:
MooTools:
$$('input[name=myRadioName]).setStyle('display','none');
or
$$('input[name=myRadioName]).fade('out');
You can try something like
<span id="myspan"><input id="radioButton1" type="radio" />Some label goes here</span>
Then
document.getElementById('myspan').style.display="none"; //inline or block to display again
If you are using JQuery then
$('myspan').hide(); // show() to display again
