Been having a great experience here so far!
Anyway, in coding my console bot, i encountered a problem. I wish to obtain some text data from a table, this table records a history of input into the site. But his table has no id and only has a class.
so here is the site element codes:
<div id="game">
<div class="gameTop">
<div class="right">
<div class="scroll">
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>aaa</td>
<td>bbb</td>
<td>ccc</td>
<td>ddd</td>
</tr>
I wish to get var xxx = "...." which corresponds to ddd. I have tried getElementbyClassName('scroll') but it gives me the table. Which is expected.
I am stuck at how to I delve deeper into the codings.
If you're using jQuery, you can use the :get() selector to specifically target the 4th <td> element and text() to retrieve the content.
var dd = $('table td:eq(3)').text();
Here's a fiddle with an example.
Edit
In case you need to get it through #game, you can quickly modify the selector to:
var dd = $('#game table td:eq(3)').text();
You should be able to get the table rows as follows:
var rows = document.getElementsByTagName("table")[0].rows;
var cell = rows[0].cells[4];
var value = cell.innerHTML
In this case, I prefer XPath. See code below:
function getElementByXpath(path) {
return document.evaluate(path, document, null, XPathResult.FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE, null).singleNodeValue;
}
var theDddNode = getElementByXpath("//td[contains(text(),'ddd')]");

How can I get the last td of a table and remove it? It should be only JS, no jquery.
I tried this:
e.target.parentNode.querySelector("td:lastcell").remove();
var t = document.getElementById("test"); // The table
var lastTD = t.querySelector("TD:last-of-type");
console.log ("Text: " + lastTD.innerText);
<table id="test">
<tr>
<td>A</td>
<td>B</td>
</tr>
</table>
element.children should get you all the children as an array you can get the last child simply by element.children[element.children.length -1] and do whatever you want with it.
Also if your table has an id you can get the last td by using document.querySelect('#table-id td:last-child') or use document.querySelectAll('#table-id td:last-child') to get all the last tds
I have got 3 tables in html that at a certain time, i want to move text from 1 table will move to another. Can someone show me a javascript function ( just a few lines long - don't spend too long) that can transfer text from one td to another.
Transferring ONE td value to another:
Well if you assign a td an ID (ex. "firstTD", "secondTD"), you could store it's value in a variable (ex. "tdToMove"):
var tdToMove = document.getElementById("firstTD").innerHTML;
document.getElementById("secondTD").innerHTML = tdToMove;
Note: This will only copy the innerHTML of a single td, and duplicate it on the other. If you wish to clear the first entry, run:
document.getElementById("firstTD").innerHTML = "";
to render the first td 'blank'.
You will have to experiment to find a way to move ALL values to the other table, this was just a pointer.
Also, If the text is moving from table to table, and the tables remain identical, why not just place the input in both to begin with, OR, simply run a code to duplicate the table when you would like to move the data?
You can use Node.textContent property to get and set the text of a Node.
Here is a link about it:https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Node/textContent
I have made a fiddle to show you that in action: https://jsfiddle.net/3dep0msg/
In this fiddle i transfer the text of cell1 to cell2 and add it to the text of cell2.
I use textContent and not innerHTML property, because you wanted to transfer ONLY text!
function copyTextFromCell(id1,id2){
var cell1= document.getElementById(id1);
var cell2= document.getElementById(id2);
cell2.textContent = cell2.textContent+cell1.textContent;
}
copyTextFromCell("cell1","cell2");
if you want to do this using jquery.
<table id="table1">
<tr>
<td>1,1</td>
<td>1,2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>2,1</td>
<td>2,2</td>
</tr>
</table>
<table id="table2">
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>
$('#table1 tr').each(function (indexR, element) {
$(this).find('td').each(function (index, element) {
var table2Rows = $('#table2 tr');
var table2Row = table2Rows.eq(indexR);
var table2Column = table2Row.find('td');
var table2cell = table2Column.eq(index);
table2cell.html( $(this).html());
});
});
working fiddle.
I am very new in JavaScript and I have the following problem to solve.
I have a table that contains this td cell:
<td class= "dateToConvert" width = "8.33%">
<%=salDettaglio.getDataCreazione() != null ? salDettaglio.getDataCreazione() : "" %>
</td>
This retrieve a String from an object and show it into the cell
The problem is the retrieved string represent a date having the following horrible form: 20131204 and I have to convert it into the following form: 2013-12-04.
So I am thinking to create a JavaScript that do this work when the value is retrieved.
My problem is: how can I do to automatically call the JavaScript before to show the value into the td cell? (So I show the modified output in the desidered form)
EDIT 1:
So I have create thid JavaScript function into my page:
function convertData() {
var tds = document.querySelectorAll('.dateToConvert');
[].slice.call(tds).forEach(function(td) {
td.innerText = td.innerText.replace(/(\d{4})(\d{2})(\d{2})/, '$1-$2-$3');
});
}
But it don't work because it never enter in this function (I see it using FireBug JavaScript debugger). Why? What am I missing? Maybe have I to call it explicitly in some way in my td cell?
Of course it is better to fix backend method to make it return proper format. But since you have no control over it try to use something like this:
var tds = document.querySelectorAll('.dateToConvert');
[].slice.call(tds).forEach(function(td) {
td.textContent = td.textContent.replace(/(\d{4})(\d{2})(\d{2})/, '$1-$2-$3');
});
Check the demo below.
var tds = document.querySelectorAll('.dateToConvert');
[].slice.call(tds).forEach(function(td) {
td.textContent = td.textContent.replace(/(\d{4})(\d{2})(\d{2})/, '$1-$2-$3');
});
<table>
<tr>
<td class= "dateToConvert" width = "8.33%">
20131204
</td>
<td class= "dateToConvert" width = "8.33%">
20140408
</td>
</tr>
</table>
I have a row in a table and that row is not displayed as css style is set to display:none .
HTML table:
<table class="myTable">
<tr class="prototype">
........
</tr>
</table>
CSS code:
.myTable .prototype{display:none;}
Now i have to clone the same row and add some data to it and append the row to the table as below: i have below jquery code:
var master = $(this).parents("table.myTable");
var prot = master.find(".prototype").clone();
prot.attr("class", "");
prot.find("#attributeValue").attr("value", "ABC");
prot.find("#contactFirstName").attr("value", "XYZ");
jQuery('table.myTable tr:last').before(prot);
But the row won'ttbe added to the table. Please help me.
Thanks!
If you run the code in the onLoad event, change the first line to var master = $(this).find("table.myTable"); or var master = $("table.myTable");
Use prot.removeClass(); instead of prot.attr("class", "");
Ids have to be unique, if elements in your prototype-row have an id you get invalid HTML.
Use $().val('ABC') instead of $().attr('value', 'ABC')
If it still doesn't work, please show more code (maybe a jsfiddle).
var master = $(this).parents("table.myTable");
var prot = master.find("tr.prototype").clone();
prot.removeClass('prototype');
prot.find("#attributeValue").val("ABC");
prot.find("#contactFirstName").val("XYZ");
master.append(prot);
prot.show();
I have a table that is filled in with values dependant on a previous page
those avlues are filled in with struts apparently
but I'm not very good with all that stuff so is there a simple was I can do something like this, either with HTML only or maybe a small javascript I can put in tha page?
<Table>
<TR>
<TH>ID</TH>
<TD><s:property value="groupID" /><TD> <--Number generated by the page with struts
</TR>
<TR>
<TH>ID Value</TH>
<TD>foobar</TD> <-- the text I want to add in dependant on the number from the previous TD
</TH>
</Table>
so, is there a simple way to go about doing this? HTML, CSS, JavaScript solution maybe?
Given that exact HTML, a simple script like this will do it. But if you don't know JavaScript, you should really learn it so that you understand what you're doing.
<body>
<Table>
<TR>
<TH>ID</TH>
<TD><s:property value="groupID" /><TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TH>ID Value</TH>
<TD>foobar</TD>
</TR>
</Table>
<!-- The script is here so it won't run until the TABLE has loaded -->
<script type="text/javascript">
// This is a map of the struts values to your values
var valueMap = {
"1": "foo",
"2": "bar",
"3": "baz"
};
// Browser compatibility. Older IE uses 'innerText' instead of 'textContent'
var textContent = ('textContent' in document) ? 'textContent' : 'innerText';
// Get all the TD elements on the page
var tds = document.getElementsByTagName('td');
// Get the text content of the first TD (index 0)
var text = tds[0][textContent];
// Get the value from the map using the text we fetched above
var value = valueMap[text];
// Set the text content of the second TD (index 1) to the mapped value
tds[1][textContent] = value;
</script>
</body>
Assuming you want to place the value 'groupID' (set in the first tr's td) into the second row's td element, then the following jQuery will do the trick:
$(document).ready(function() {
// Scrape the XML out of the TD containing the xml
var tdXml = $('table tr').eq(0).find('td').html();
// Grab the value of the value attribute (groupID)
var value = $(tdXml).attr('value');
// Set this value in the second row's TD
$('table tr').eq(1).find('td').text(value);
});
