Been trying to take specific data from an array of objects that for many reasons I cannot host on a server. The data is in stored as a variable in the document. This is what i've been trying so far to no success:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
var users = [{"username":"nphillips7m","first_name":"Nicole","last_name":"Phillips","email":"nphillips7m#ebay.co.uk","gender":"Female","sexuality":"Networked static concept","language":"Gagauz"},
{"username":"esimpson7n","first_name":"Elizabeth","last_name":"Simpson","gender":"Female","sexuality":"Future-proofed solution-oriented definition","language":"Malay"},
{"username":"llawrence7o","first_name":"Lillian","last_name":"Lawrence","email":"llawrence7o#technorati.com","gender":"Female","sexuality":"Re-contextualized demand-driven middleware","language":"Tetum"}]
var simpson = users.find("last_name" + "Simpson")
document.getElementById("return").innerHTML = function myfunction() {
simpson;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="return"></div>
</body>
For now I've just been trying to extract some/any data from the 'users' array, but going forward i would like to have the user search for a word and the entire 'line'/'lines' of data related to the word/words in 'users' display as results. What methods should i use to achieve this?
You have some mistakes in your code. First of all, find function accept as argument a callback function.
var simpson = users.find(a=>a.last_name=="Simpson");
If you pass function to innerHTML, you must to invoke it, like this:
document.getElementById("return").innerHTML = (function myFunction(){
return JSON.stringify(simpson);
})();
and function must return a value in order to set the HTML content (inner HTML) of result element.
var users = [{"username":"nphillips7m","first_name":"Nicole","last_name":"Phillips","email":"nphillips7m#ebay.co.uk","gender":"Female","sexuality":"Networked static concept","language":"Gagauz"},
{"username":"esimpson7n","first_name":"Elizabeth","last_name":"Simpson","gender":"Female","sexuality":"Future-proofed solution-oriented definition","language":"Malay"},
{"username":"llawrence7o","first_name":"Lillian","last_name":"Lawrence","email":"llawrence7o#technorati.com","gender":"Female","sexuality":"Re-contextualized demand-driven middleware","language":"Tetum"}]
var simpson = users.find(callback);
function callback(item){
return item.last_name=="Simpson";
}
document.getElementById("return").innerHTML = (function myFunction(){
return JSON.stringify(simpson);
})();
<body>
<div id="return"></div>
</body>
1. You need to pass the callback function in find method. The find method searches for an element in an array and returns the element if it is found. Otherwise undefined is returned. The Search Criteria is defined by a callback function. Something like
var simpson = users.find(currentValue => currentValue.last_name === "Simpson");
2. You might not require your innerHTML to be a function, instead it would be more appropriate that it points to meaningfull information like UserName Found.
document.getElementById("return").innerHTML = simpson.username;
Try the following code.
var users = [{"username":"nphillips7m","first_name":"Nicole","last_name":"Phillips","email":"nphillips7m#ebay.co.uk","gender":"Female","sexuality":"Networked static concept","language":"Gagauz"},
{"username":"esimpson7n","first_name":"Elizabeth","last_name":"Simpson","gender":"Female","sexuality":"Future-proofed solution-oriented definition","language":"Malay"},
{"username":"llawrence7o","first_name":"Lillian","last_name":"Lawrence","email":"llawrence7o#technorati.com","gender":"Female","sexuality":"Re-contextualized demand-driven middleware","language":"Tetum"}]
var simpson = users.find(currentValue => currentValue.last_name === "Simpson");
document.getElementById("return").innerHTML = simpson.username;

I have created a simple login page with hardcoded username and password, I was successful in calling the next page once the login credentials are passed but I am having a tough time passing the user name entered in page 1 to appear on page 2.
I tried to find a way to make user inputs as global variables in js file so I can use the same variables in the second page but I am unsuccessful.
greeter.html
<body>
<h1>Simple Login Page</h1>
<form name="login">
Username<input type="text" name="userid"/>
Password<input type="password" name="pswrd"/>
<input type="button" onclick="check(this.form);" value="Login"/>
<input type="reset" value="Cancel"/>
</form>
<p id = "passwarn"></p>
<script language="javascript" src="source.js">
</script>
</body>
source.js
function check(form) { /*function to check userid & password*/
/*the following code checkes whether the entered userid and password are
matching*/
let uid = form.userid.value;
let pswrd = form.pswrd.value;
if(uid == "shiva" && pswrd == "mypswrd") {
window.open('test.html')/*opens the target page while Id & password
matches*/
}
else {
document.getElementById("passwarn").innerHTML = "User name or
password is incorrect!"/*displays error message*/
}
}
test.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

<meta charset="UTF-8">

<title>Document</title>
</head>
<body>
<script language="javascript" src="source.js"></script>
<h1> Hello <span id = "UI"></span></h1>
</body>
</html>
I want Hello shiva printed on the test.html page, I do not want to use jquery while doing so, is there any way?
You can simply reference the value from the opening page in test.html.
To make things more straightforward, add an ID to the Username field :
Username <input type="text" name="userid" id="userid">
Then you can grab and display the value from the opened window like this :
<h1> Hello
<script>
document.write(window.opener.document.getElementById("userid").value)
</script>
</h1>
If you want to do things a little more elegantly, you could keep the scripting in your .js file and change the innerHTML of your "UI" span from there.
Bear in mind that cross-origin scripting rules mean that this will only work when served from the same domain.
Following on from the comments from your question two key points to identify
This is a very insecure way to do this
You may want to use cookies if the user if going to traverse many pages (not sponsoring, but I would recommend js-cookie, I have used it for a while and it's pretty robust)
In order to get what i believe you wanted to work i had to do a couple of this.
Put your JS on the page as for testing it quicker to have it all accessible on one page
I use function that is for parameter grabbing (yes this is completely insecure but would achieve what you want, a cookie would be more secure) you can find it here.
I renamed your inputs from names to ID's as they are more accessible in javascript this way.
This function when used with decode and encode URI components in javascript will help you pass the data from one page to another see code below
Greeter.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

<input type="reset" value="Cancel"/>
</form>
<p id = "passwarn"></p>
<script type="text/javascript" src="./source.js"></script>

then your test.html

Finally your source.js
window.onload = checkpage(window.location.href);
function checkpage(url){
if(url.split('/').pop() == 'greeter.html'){
document.getElementById('LoginSubmit').addEventListener('click',function () {
var uid = document.getElementById('userid').value;

document.getElementById("UI").innerHTML = getAllUrlParams(decodeURIComponent(window.location.href)).uid;
}
}
function check(uid, pswrd) { /*function to check userid & password*/
/*the following code checkes whether the entered userid and password are
matching*/
let redirect = "test.html"
let parameters = encodeURIComponent('uid='+uid);
if(uid == "shiva" && pswrd == "mypswrd") {
window.open(redirect+"?"+parameters)/*opens the target page while Id & password
matches*/
}
else {
document.getElementById("passwarn").innerHTML = "User name or password is incorrect!"/*displays error message*/
}
}
function getAllUrlParams(url) {
// get query string from url (optional) or window
var queryString = url ? url.split('?')[1] : window.location.search.slice(1);
// we'll store the parameters here
var obj = {};

}
}
}
}
return obj;
}
So long as your HTML files are in the same folder you can run this. The main thing to notice is that you are binding the event listener to the element, getting the values input and then submitting them to the function.
I have added a function that retrieves the url of the page location and pops out the last bit of it and runs a check on it to ensure you are looking at the right place to run the correct code. as this runs on load then the subsequent functions run after. You can further refactor this to modularise it and ensure that it's cleaner to read if you wanted.
Splitting it out this way will make it easier when trying to implement a cookie as you can in the event listener (with a cookie created) can save those values to it on your greet page and then call them back after on your test page.
Hope that helps
I am trying to use the Have I Been Pwned? API to retrieve a list of breaches for a given email account.
I retrieve this list using the fetch() API. In the browser it looks like there is a connection to the HIBP website but the expected breaches are not visible.
I think this is a JSON problem because the API returns results without a root tree (?) (e.g. [breaches:{"Name"... - only the {"Name"}), so I think I'm making a mistake at the iteration step in the JS file. Also, I'm not calling the 'retrieve' function in the HTML file correctly because the browser throws an error: 'Uncaught ReferenceError: retrieve is not defined', but this is a side-issue (fetch('https://haveibeenpwned.com/api/v2/breachedaccount/test#example.com') doesn't work either).
This is my first week working with JS, fetch(), and JSON, so I consulted a couple of sources before asking this question (but I still can't figure it out, after a couple of days):
How to Use the JavaScript Fetch API to Get Data
fetch API
API methods for HaveIBeenPwnd.com (unofficial)
Where is the actual problem?
The index.html file:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang=en>

<ul id="results"></ul>
</div>
</header>
<script src="test.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
The test.js file (I know that JS is an interpreted language - so empty characters affect execution speed - but I made it more readable for this example):
function createNode(element) {
return document.createElement(element); // Create the type of element you pass in the parameters
}
function append(parent, el) {
return parent.appendChild(el); // Append the second parameter(element) to the first one
}
const account = document.getElementById('InputBox');
const PwnedButton = document.getElementById('PwnedButton');
const results = document.getElementById('results');
fetch('https://haveibeenpwned.com/api/v2/breachedaccount/' + account)
.then((resp) => resp.json()) // Transform the data into json
.then(function(retrieve) {
let breaches = retrieve.Name; // Get the results
return breaches.map(function(check) { // Map through the results and for each one run the code below
let span = createNode('span'); // Create the element we need (breach title)
span.innerHTML = `${breaches}`;
append(results, span);
})
})
.catch(function(error) {
console.log(JSON.stringify(error));
});
let breaches = retrieve.Name;
retrieve is not an object with a Name property.
It is an array containing multiple objects, each of which has a Name property.
You have to loop over it.
e.g.
retrieve.forEach( item => {
let breaches = retrieve.Name;
console.log(breaches);
});
breaches.map
… and the Name is a string, so you can't map it. You can only map an array (like the one you have in retrieve).
I have created working version of what are you possible going to implement, taking Name field from result. https://jsfiddle.net/vhnzm1fu/1/ Please notice:
return retrieve.forEach(function(check) {
let span = createNode('span');
span.innerHTML = `${check.Name}<br/>`;
append(results, span);
})
I am trying to pass element ID as one of the function's parameters:
sap.ui.getCore().byId("idView1").getController().addField("selectedFieldsContainer", oItem);
The definition of the addField function is as follows:
addField: function(sId, oItem){
var oSelectedFieldsContainer = sap.ui.getCore().byId(sId);
oSelectedFieldsContainer.addItem(oItem);
}
When I run the code, I get error:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'addItem' of undefined
But if I try to explicitly define the id:
sap.ui.getCore().byId("idView1").getController().addField(oItem);
while the function's definition is:
addField: function(oItem){
var oSelectedFieldsContainer = sap.ui.getCore().byId("selectedFieldsContainer");
oSelectedFieldsContainer.addItem(oItem);
}
the code works.
I don't understand why the first example doesn't work.
What am I missing?
Thank you.
UPDATE
HERE is JSBIN. I want to update control's type. I try to pass this control's id as a parameter, but sap.ui.getCore().byId() can't find it (see console message).
You should know that calling
sap.ui.getCore().byId("control")
does not return a String. From the variable name sId I can guess that you were expecting to receive a String. Instead it returns the control with the given id. Then because of this your changeType() function does not work. Either you pass a reference to the found control to your changeType() function or you pass the string sap.ui.getCore().byId(sId). The jsbin passes the found control instead of the id. Passing the id string would be easy as well...

Sorry, everyone.
The problem was hiding elsewhere.
Please see the answer to this question.
Here is the working edit Fixed.
The issue is you are passing the object reference in sId field whereas getCore() expects a string. sId.sId get the id of the control you are passing and this appears to work.
I have written the following code to display an input with Javascript's alert( ... ) function.
My aim is to take a URL as input and open it in a new window. I concatenate it with 'http://' and then execute window.open().
However, I just get 'http://' in the URL name, even after concatenation, and not the complete URL. How can I fix this?
<html>
<head>
<meta content="text/html;charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type">
<meta content="utf-8" http-equiv="encoding">
<body onload="onload();">
<input type="text" name="enter" value="" id="url_id">
<input type="button" value="Submit" onclick="func();">
</body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var url;
function onload() {
url = document.getElementById("url_id").value;
}
function func(){
var var1 = "http://";
var var2 = url;
var res = var1.concat(var2);
alert(var2);
//window.open(res);
}
</script>
</head>
</html>
You shouldn't be calling it in onload(), only after the user has entered the url into the input field. Of course its an empty string, because you assign url to the value of #url_id before the user has a chance to enter anything when you place it in onload().
function func(){
var var1 = "http://";
url = document.getElementById("url_id").value;
var var2 = url;
var res = var1.concat(var2);
alert(var2);
//window.open(res);
}
Others have given solutions, and you already have accepted one. But none of them have told you what is wrong with your code.
Fristly, you have a body element inside your head element. This is invalid markup. Please correct it:
<html>
<head>
<!-- this is a script -->
<script type="text/javascript">
// javascript code
</script>
</head>
<body>
<!-- this is an inline script -->
<script type="text/javascript">
// javascript code
</script>
</body>
</html>
Secondly, you need to have an idea about the execution order of JavaScript inside browser windows. Consider this example:
<html>
<body onload="alert('onload')">
<p>Lorem Ipsum</p>
<script type="text/javascript" >
alert('inline');
</script>
</body>
</html>
Which alert do you thing will get executed first? See the JSFiddle.
So as you can see, inline JavaScript will be executed first, and then the browser will call whatever code is in <body onload=.
Also, onload function is called immediately after the page is loaded. And user has not entered anything when the function is executed. That is why you get null for url.
function func()
var url = document.getElementById("url_id").value;
var fullUrl = "http://".concat(url);
alert(fullUrl);
// or window.open(fullUrl);
}
You're not concatenating with a String but with an Object. Specifically an HTMLInputElement object.
If you want the url from the text input, you need to concatenate with url.value.
if its not concatenating, use:
var res = val1+val2.value;
I am validating data present in CKeditor on a button click event using jquery. After the button click it separates the list of correct answers and wrong answers. This works fine. But after modifying the wrong answers and hit the button, it again takes the initially entered values. How to make it take the modified data on the 2nd button click.

You are deinfing the 2 ZIPS variables as arrays outside of the click handler. You need to reset them for each time a click occurs so they need to be defined inside the handler and they shouldn't be defined as arrays since you are using them to concatenate strings
$('#save').click(function () {
var correctZips = '', wrongZips='';/* start with empty strings*/
/* remainder of your handler code*/
});
