Adding bbcode to links via checkbox

[sford999]

I have the following code which is used when a user checks a checkbox, or multiple checkboxes, the checkbox value(s) is passed to a textarea.

"fnDrawCallback": function()
{
    $('input[type=checkbox]').click(function()
    {
        $('textarea[name=links]').val(
        $('input[type=checkbox]:checked').map(function()
        {
            return $(this).val();
        }).toArray().join("\n"));

        $('textarea[name=bbcode]').val(
        $('input[type=checkbox]:checked').map(function()
        {
            return $(this).val();
        }).toArray().join("\n"));
    }
    );
},

What I want to do is add the or

 before and after the passed url, but I'm completely new to jQuery and no idea how to do it.

 

As it is now, the checkboxes pass the URL but I want it to pass it to another text area with bbcode

 

EG:

Textarea 1

http://www.domain.com

 

Textarea 2

[url ]http://www.domain.com[/url]

Anyone?

In javascript you concatenate strings with +

If you have the string you want to add the code to, just do

"http://"+url+""

I figured it out as i changed the code to:

"fnDrawCallback": function() 
{
	$('input[type=checkbox][name=links]').click(function()
	{
		$('textarea[name=links]').text('');
		$('input[type=checkbox][name=links]:checked').each(function()
		{
			$('textarea[name=links]').append( $(this).val() + '\n');
		});
	});

	$('input[type=checkbox][name=links]').click(function()
	{
		$('textarea[name=bbcode]').text('');
		$('input[type=checkbox][name=links]:checked').each(function()
		{
			$('textarea[name=bbcode]').append('[code]' + $(this).val() + '[/code] \n');
		});
	});
},
