When I try to extract all html code with $('body').html I get some jquery function as value, written a short test code to see if anyone can reproduce. If it´s my code has any errors in it then please correct, quite new to both jquery and javascript.
/*** Start test tooltip ***/ var testArray = new Array; var myRe; myRe = new RegExp("/\w/g"); // Supposed to fetch words. testArray = myRe.exec( $("#wrap").html ); // Collect found words in testArray document.write(testArray+"\n\n"+$("#wrap").html); // Alert array /*** End test tooltip ***/ Here´s what I get.. /*** Start Output ***/ null function(value){return value==undefined?(this[0]? this[0].innerHTML:null):this.empty().append(value);} /*** End Output ***/ Using jQuery 1.2.6 - New Wave Javascript. The plan is to find words that match a mysql db and if there is a match associate that word with a tooltip with more complex explanation. In my specific case I would use it to explain abbreviations.
