It works with Array types. The example is a simple list of numbers, but the array could contain anything; lists of strings, functions, DOM nodes, whatever. Unfortunately, a lot of things that seem like arrays in the DOM aren't really, so you can't shuffle the images on a page with just document.images.shuffle() all by itself.

Similar to Perl's CGI::escapeHTML(), though (because we can!) this adds it as a method to all String objects.

Strips all tags from any string.

Gives you control to perform actions when the control key and the mouse button is clicked in the same time. Something similar to selecting elements in Windows with ctrl+click.

Just change the event.ctrlKey to event.shiftKey to make it shift+click. If you don't get it don't worry the snippet contains the demo for shift+click too.

You may need to change the event.which though 1 = left click, 2 = middle click, 3 = right click(at least in firefox 1.5.0.5)

Turns any string backwards. If you input "Test" it gives out "tseT". Hope it's useful.

The snippet shows how to use it.

The modus operandi for this is similar to that taken by PHP's implementation of such functions. It's comparitively memory-intensive, but is much faster than running a whole bunch of tests.

Basically, you set a mask -- an array of 256 null bytes -- and set those that correspond to characters you wish to trim. Then, rather than having to test if a character is in the set of characters to trim(O(n), or linear time on *ws), you just test once (O(1), or unit time) to see if the byte in question is set.

And of course, to trim(), you just wrap trim() around both ltrim() and rtrim().

One point of caution: these functions trim in place, so copy strings before trimming them. (Of course, if you usually want access to both pre- and post-trimmed strings, you could always make these malloc() a new string and return a pointer to it . . . )

Trim , Left trim (ltrim) and Right Trim (rtrim) in javascript

To debug javascript code we use alert() whereever needed and it irritates you while alerts values inside a loop and other places where more alerts are being shown and you have to press the ok button to pass / proceed on.
here is a simple way to get rid of the alerts dialogs and get the values outputed into another debug window.

Generates an 88 character secure hash string for the passed in strings.
