При написании очередного мегапроекта встала непосильная задача - сделать красивости средствами яваскрипта. Суть проблемы заключалась в том, чтобы использовать всякие вкусности типа , – и т.д. средствами JavaScript при заполнении динамических списков SELECT. Требовалось заменить короткий знак - (минус) на более длинный и красивый – (–).
Порывшись в сети, нашёл, что можно использовать функцию String.fromCharCode() для получения UNICODE-символа по его коду. Список символов (сущностей) HTML нашёлся по адресу http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/sgml/entities.html, правда, в несколько непотребном виде. Однако, мою проблему со списками удалось решить:
... // Создание элемента Option с заменой в названии минуса на – var opt = new Option(name.replace(/-/g, String.fromCharCode(0x2013))); ... |
После некоторых махинаций со списком от W3C получилась такая табличка:
| Символ | Сущность | Сущность-код | Использование в JavaScript |
