I have a JavaScript code for random text/url using an external JavaScript, but lets say I have about 100 urls to put in for random text/urls, What would be the best option? JavaScript or something else? I would love to be able to use an external .txt file but I'm a newbie when it comes to PHP. Any ideas or code that may help me on this strange question?
heres the JavaScript code
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML .01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<script type="text/javascript">
(function(){
var myLinks = [
{href: 'http://www.whatever.com/somepage.htm', text: 'Some Page'},
{href: 'http://www.whatever.com/anotherpage.htm', text: 'Another Page'},
{href: 'http://www.whatever.com/yetanotherpage.htm', text: 'Yet Another Page'}
];
onload = function(){
var link = myLinks[Math.floor(Math.random() * myLinks.length)],
pageLink = document.getElementById('myLink');
pageLink.href = link.href;
pageLink.firstChild.nodeValue = link.text;
pageLink.target = '_blank';
};
})();
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<a id="myLink" href="somedefault.htm">Some Default Text</a>
</div>
</body>
</html>
I haven't learned PHP, If I understand what you say,use PHP random with a text/url assigned to the href attribute of tag a。

I currently have an html page where I use javascript to add a link to a different port on the same host, as in the code below.
If I'm on a machine with address 192.168.1.10:8090 the link provided is 192.168.1.10:5000
I'm trying to the same function to a wordpress site, but can't work out how to add javascript and add a link to the page (or reference an existing link).
I've not used wordpress before, so grateful for any help with this.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Test Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="ext_link" style="text-align:center">
<script>
window.onload = function(){
var x = location.hostname;
var init = "http://";
var link_stem = x.concat(':5000');
var link_address = init.concat(link_stem);
console.log(link_address);
var a = document.createElement('a');
var linkText = document.createTextNode("Link to Port 5000");
a.appendChild(linkText);
a.title = "LinkToPort5000";
a.href = link_address;
document.getElementById("ext_link").appendChild(a);
};
</script>
</div>
</body>

I have a function that returns some HTML fragment that I store in a variable called data, with its whole structure. What I want is to extract from it some of those parts.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Title</title>
<script id="hello">
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
For example, I want to get the body and save it in a new variable:
var body = data.split("<body")[1].split(">").slice(1).join(">").split("</body>")[0];
Where data is the HTML text as a string that the original function is returning.
Is there any way I could save an specific script, from its ID (in this case with id = hello), and save it in another variable??
Thank you very much
var newVar = $("#hello").html();
Let's suppose you have an HTML string in a variable, for example
var foo = '<body><span>bar</span></body>';
Now, let's initialize a parser, to convert this into HTML:
var parser = new DOMParser();
var doc = parser.parseFromString(foo, "text/html");
Now, you can read anything from foo, as it is converted into HTML:
document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].innerHTML = doc.querySelectorAll("body")[0].innerHTML;
$html = document.querySelector("body").innerHTML;
$hello = document.getElementById("hello").innerHTML;
console.log($html);
console.log($hello);
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Title</title>
<script id="hello">
// script data
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
I got this code from the GitHub:
<script src="path/to/jSignature.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#signature").jSignature()
})
</script>
<div id="signature"></div>
But it doesn't pull anything up on the actual webpage. I would think there is more code required but I don't know where to start.
Here is a minimal working example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<lang>
<title>Minimal working jSignature Example</title>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<!-- Files from the origin -->
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://willowsystems.github.io/jSignature/js/libs/jSignature.min.js"></script>
<head>
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
// Initialize jSignature
$("#signature").jSignature();
})
// ripped from the description at their the Github page
function getBase64Sig(){
// get the element where the signature have been put
var $sigdiv = $("#signature");
// get a base64 URL for a SVG picture
var data = $sigdiv.jSignature("getData", "svgbase64");
// build the image...
var i = new Image();
i.src = "data:" + data[0] + "," + data[1];
// and put it somewhere where the sun shines brightly upon it.
$(i).appendTo($("#output"));
}
</script>
<body>
Put your signature here:
<div id="signature"></div>
<button onclick="getBase64Sig()">Get Base64</button>
<div id="output"></div>
</body>
</html>
I hope you can go on from here.
It is really as simple as they describe it to be, only their description of the actual example is a bit lacking for beginners.
I'm new to JavaScript and already encountered a problem. When I run the code and the browser pops up, it[browser] does not show anything. What I have is the testMethod.js file with one method:
function testMethod(num1, num2){
var value = num1 + num2;
return value;
}
and an HTML file from where I'm trying to run:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head lang="en">
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title> My JavaScript</title>
<script language = "javascript" src = testMethod.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script language = "javascript" type = "text/javascript">
// var getValue = testMethod(2,3);
document.write("The result is " + testMethod(5,3));
</script>
<noscript>
<h3> This site requires JavaScript</h3>
</noscript>
</body>
</html>
The code is not implementing the result at all. It shows only a blank page browser.
It seems you have a quote missing in the html, it should say src="testMethod.js" where you are including the script in the first place.
Look at the below code, this JavaScript is used to take a string (in a language other than English) and convert it into English.
<script type="text/javascript">
google.load("language", "1");
function initialize() {
var content = document.getElementById('translation');
// Setting the text in the div.
content.innerHTML = '<div id="text">HELLO WORLD<\/div>
<div id="translation"/>';
// Grabbing the text to translate
var text = document.getElementById("text").innerHTML;
// Translate from Spanish to English, and have the callback of
// the request put the resulting translation in the
// "translation" div. Note: by putting in an empty string for
// the source language ('es') then the translation will
// auto-detect the source language.
google.language.translate(text, '', 'en', function(result) {
var translated = document.getElementById("translation");
if (result.translation) {
translated.innerHTML = result.translation;
}
});
}
google.setOnLoadCallback(initialize);
</script>
I want that the string "HELLO WORLD" must be entered by user at run time in a text field and then that string is passed to the div id text. So is this possible?
Hope you are referring to the document below:
http://code.google.com/apis/language/translate/v1/getting_started.html
Please refer to the section "Getting Started" where it says about "Signing up for an API key". This needs to be done before you could implement the code in your page.
Once done, make the modification to the script file which you include in the html page with your key.
Here, replace your key with "MY_KEY_STRING" in the bottom code and get started.

}

</html>
HTML:
<form id="translate">
<textarea id="translate-me"></textarea>
<input type="submit" />
</form>
JavaScript:
var form = document.getElementById('translate')
var textarea = document.getElementById('translate-me')
form.onsubmit = function () {
google.language.translate(textarea.value, ...)
return false; // prevent default action (form submission)
}
Using jQuery or something similar would make this easier, of course.
