man5 Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 For eg. I would prefer to have a link like this in the head section. <head> <script src="js/code.js"></script> </head> as oppose to like this. <head> <script> var _debug = false; var _placeholderSupport = function() { var t = document.createElement("input"); t.type = "text"; return (typeof t.placeholder !== "undefined"); }(); window.onload = function() { var arrInputs = document.getElementsByTagName("input"); var arrTextareas = document.getElementsByTagName("textarea"); var combinedArray = []; for (var i = 0; i < arrInputs.length; i++) combinedArray.push(arrInputs[i]); for (var i = 0; i < arrTextareas.length; i++) combinedArray.push(arrTextareas[i]); for (var i = 0; i < combinedArray.length; i++) { var curInput = combinedArray[i]; if (!curInput.type || curInput.type == "" || curInput.type == "text" || curInput.type == "textarea") HandlePlaceholder(curInput); else if (curInput.type == "password") ReplaceWithText(curInput); } if (!_placeholderSupport) { for (var i = 0; i < document.forms.length; i++) { var oForm = document.forms[i]; if (oForm.attachEvent) { oForm.attachEvent("onsubmit", function() { PlaceholderFormSubmit(oForm); }); } else if (oForm.addEventListener) oForm.addEventListener("submit", function() { PlaceholderFormSubmit(oForm); }, false); } } }; function PlaceholderFormSubmit(oForm) { for (var i = 0; i < oForm.elements.length; i++) { var curElement = oForm.elements[i]; HandlePlaceholderItemSubmit(curElement); } } function HandlePlaceholderItemSubmit(element) { if (element.name) { var curPlaceholder = element.getAttribute("placeholder"); if (curPlaceholder && curPlaceholder.length > 0 && element.value === curPlaceholder) { element.value = ""; window.setTimeout(function() { element.value = curPlaceholder; }, 100); } } } function ReplaceWithText(oPasswordTextbox) { if (_placeholderSupport) return; var oTextbox = document.createElement("input"); oTextbox.type = "text"; oTextbox.id = oPasswordTextbox.id; oTextbox.name = oPasswordTextbox.name; //oTextbox.style = oPasswordTextbox.style; oTextbox.className = oPasswordTextbox.className; for (var i = 0; i < oPasswordTextbox.attributes.length; i++) { var curName = oPasswordTextbox.attributes.item(i).nodeName; var curValue = oPasswordTextbox.attributes.item(i).nodeValue; if (curName !== "type" && curName !== "name") { oTextbox.setAttribute(curName, curValue); } } oTextbox.originalTextbox = oPasswordTextbox; oPasswordTextbox.parentNode.replaceChild(oTextbox, oPasswordTextbox); HandlePlaceholder(oTextbox); if (!_placeholderSupport) { oPasswordTextbox.onblur = function() { if (this.dummyTextbox && this.value.length === 0) { this.parentNode.replaceChild(this.dummyTextbox, this); } }; } } function HandlePlaceholder(oTextbox) { if (!_placeholderSupport) { var curPlaceholder = oTextbox.getAttribute("placeholder"); if (curPlaceholder && curPlaceholder.length > 0) { Debug("Placeholder found for input box '" + oTextbox.name + "': " + curPlaceholder); oTextbox.value = curPlaceholder; oTextbox.setAttribute("old_color", oTextbox.style.color); oTextbox.style.color = "#c0c0c0"; oTextbox.onfocus = function() { var _this = this; if (this.originalTextbox) { _this = this.originalTextbox; _this.dummyTextbox = this; this.parentNode.replaceChild(this.originalTextbox, this); _this.focus(); } Debug("input box '" + _this.name + "' focus"); _this.style.color = _this.getAttribute("old_color"); if (_this.value === curPlaceholder) _this.value = ""; }; oTextbox.onblur = function() { var _this = this; Debug("input box '" + _this.name + "' blur"); if (_this.value === "") { _this.style.color = "#c0c0c0"; _this.value = curPlaceholder; } }; } else { Debug("input box '" + oTextbox.name + "' does not have placeholder attribute"); } } else { Debug("browser has native support for placeholder"); } } function Debug(msg) { if (typeof _debug !== "undefined" && _debug) { var oConsole = document.getElementById("Console"); if (!oConsole) { oConsole = document.createElement("div"); oConsole.id = "Console"; document.body.appendChild(oConsole); } oConsole.innerHTML += msg + "<br />"; } } </script> </head> How can I make that happen? I rather not show that awful long code in the head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution requinix Posted August 21, 2014 Solution Share Posted August 21, 2014 Put all that code in a file, name the file "code.js", put it inside the /js/ folder, and then replace everything you have now with the that you want to have.
