I have a textBox that people writes stories in it. They can use [bbcode]
[/bbcode] for format. I have Aspell installed on the server, so people can make correction to their text. Sometimes, they forget to add a space after a period. So Aspell reads the last word of a sentence and the first word of the next sentence as a single world, which gives an error, word not found. Before sending the text to Aspell, i add a space after all the periods with: string = string.replace(/./g, ". "); I did this for the coma, and it's working, no problem. But i dont want to add a space after periods in certain [bbcode] [/bbcode]. Because the links will not work. [link]http://www.tromal.net/index3.php[/link]  I dont know how to do it, but after i added a space to all periods, i could search for "http" and remove all the space after the periods till the next "[". Or the space could only be added when the period is not between [link][/link] and [img][/img] Could someone help me on this one, thanks, André Couturier www.tromal.net |

String.prototype.couturierFix = function() { var fixer = /([.,])([\S])/g; var refixer = /\.

Thank-you very much for the script. I dont understand it, but it works great !  )Here is the script that i use for formating and preventing abuse when people writes stories: string = document.formname.story.value; // check for banned words var bannedWordArray = new Array(" pa ", " ki ", " ds "," ke "," g "," tro "," fo "," kan "," tou "," lè "," tjrs "," koi "," kelke "," pe "," ya "," dla "," po "," ns "," ù "," jvous "," keske ", " pr ", " moa ", " pk ", " mé ", " mem ", " ossi "); var bannedWordCount = 26; for (i = 0; i <= bannedWordCount; i++) { var bannedWordDetected = string.indexOf(bannedWordArray[i]); if (bannedWordDetected != -1) { var messageError = 'banned words detected';} } // remove repeating characters string = stripToLong(string); // format text for periods and commas string = string.couturierFix(); // remove double space string = string.replace(/ /g, " "); // remove space before commas string = string.replace(/ ,/g, ","); // end // -------------- functions // format text for period, comma String.prototype.couturierFix = function() { return this.replace(/(\D[.!?])(?=[^ .a-z\d])/g, '$1 '). replace(/,(?=[\S])/g, ', '). replace(/ \.(?=[\S])/g, '.'). replace(/\. (?=[^[]*\[\/(lien|image)\])/gi, '.'); } // limit repeating characters function stripToLong(string) { var accumulator = new Array(); var current = ""; var count = 0; for (i = 0;i < string.length; i++) { var c = string.charAt(i); if (c == current) { count++; } else { count = 1; current = c; } if (count <= 4) { accumulator[i] = c; } } return accumulator.join(""); } ----------------- Thanks again, André Couturier www.tromal.net |
