Menu
I need to create an array which contains all text from a page without jQuery. This is my html:
<html>
<head>
<title>Hello world!</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello!</h1>
<p>
<div>What are you doing?</div>
<div>Fine, and you?</div>
</p>
<a href="http://google.com">Thank you!</a>
</body>
</html>
Here is what i want to get
text[1] = "Hello world!";
text[2] = "Hello!";
text[3] = "What are you doing?";
text[4] = "Fine, and you?";
text[5] = "Thank you!";
Here is what i have tried but seems to not work correctly in my browser:
var elements = document.getElementsByTagName('*');
console.log(elements);
PS. I need to use document.getElementsByTagName('*'); and exclude "script" and "style".

var array = [];
var elements = document.body.getElementsByTagName("*");
for(var i = 0; i < elements.length; i++) {
var current = elements[i];
if(current.children.length === 0 && current.textContent.replace(/ |\n/g,'') !== '') {
// Check the element has no children && that it is not empty
array.push(current.textContent);
}
}
You could do something like this
Demo
result = ["What are you doing?", "Fine, and you?"]
or you could use document.documentElement.getElementsByTagName('*');
Also make sure your code is inside this
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(){
/// Code...
});
If it's just the title you need, you may aswell do this
array.push(document.title);
Saves looping through scripts & styles
