It can be a giant time-consumer to code up HTML to be written by a JavaScript. Why?
Because of the present limitations on string length readable by the compiler. You have to
keep concatenating the lines with single or double quotes and plus signs. Unlike PERL,
which permits a write literal until end write statement is encountered, every bit of the
HTML has to be specified in the "document.write("text");" format when
using JavaScript.
This little app is for the Web Developer who is doing his/her own developments in
JavaScript. It's designed specifically to make the task of writing HTML from JavaScripts
less onerous.
To use it, simply paste your HTML into the window below and click the submit button. So
long as you have not mixed single and double quotes in your HTML, it'll do the job
for you. For example, if you code your HTML with double quotes (<BODY
BGCOLOR="white"> or <A HREF="file.htm">), it will return the
JavaScript statement properly concatenated. Similarly, if you code your HTML with single
quotes (<BODY BGCOLOR='white'> or <A HREF='file.htm'>), it will function
properly.
If you write JavaScript within JavaScript, this utility will also be useful, but you
will need to split any </SCRIPT> calls like this:
document.write("</SCR"+"IPT>"
to avoid "confusing" the compiler. (Either that or add some exception
handling to the source code of this utility) |
