I'm trying to write a script to remove duplicate links with the click of a
button in the toolbar, yet when I set the function as the callback for the
button, it runs the function on page load. This is what I've got:
function removeDuplicateLinks(){
var box =$('[id^=wpTextbox]');
var text = box.val();
var start=text.split('');
var i;
for (i = 1;typeof(start[i]) !== 'undefined' ;i++){
console.log(start[i]);
start[i] = start[i].split('')[0];
text = text.replace('/\[\[' + start[i] + '\]\]/', start[i]);
}
box.val(text);
}
if (wgAction == 'edit'){
mw.toolbar.addButton( {
imageFile: '
http://localhost/wikidev/images/2/20/Button_cite_template.png',
speedTip: 'Remove duplicate links',
callback: removeDuplicateLinks(),
} );
}
I've tried setting the callback to 'removeDuplicateLinks',
removeDuplicateLinks, and I've even tried turning it into an anonymous
function bound to a variable, which I then tried to pass as the callback.
Am I misusing syntax, here?
I'd appreciate any help.
