I am trying to find some words in some array and I did something like this:
$("#get").click(function(){
$(".name").each(function(){
var fisier = $(this).text();
alert($.inArray("migr", fisier));
});
});
I have "migr" in almost every fisier var but I get only -1. What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks!
You could check for the keyword with JavaScript indexOf method. This is check for each element of the array:
$("#get").click(function(){
$(".name").each(function(){
var fisier = $(this).text();
if(fisier.indexOf("migr") !=-1){
alert('Keyword found');
}else{
alert('Keyword not found');
}
});
});
With the help of inArray function you can check value exists in array or not. $.inArray function return the index of element. If element not exist in array it will return -1. So, we can check it very simply weather a value exist in array or not.
inArray returns the index of the element in the array, not a boolean indicating if the item exists in the array.
So, to check if an item is in the array, use:
if(jQuery.inArray("test", myarray)!==-1)
or
if($.inArray("test", myarray)!==-1)
as inArray will return -1, if the element was not found.
if (!~$.inArray(0, [1, 2, 3, 4, 5])) { // returns false, not -1 }.fisier is just a string not an array.
I guess this is what you want:
$("#get").click(function(){
var names = $('.name').map(function() {
return $(this).text();
});
alert($.inArray("migr", names));
});
fisieris just a string not an array.fisierlikefisier.split(/\b/)
