I am trying to add a search functionality to my FAQ page and am absolutely stuck.
What I want is a text box where the user inputs a keyword(or words), that runs a jquery for the keyword and sets display:block for all the relevant answers.
What I have so far is this:
<form name="searchBox">
Keyword(s): <input type="text" name="keyword" />
<input type="button" value="Search" onClick="searchFunction()" />
</form>
<div class="searchable" style="display:none">
This is the first software question and answer.</div>
<div class="searchable" style="display:none">
This is the first hardware question and answer.</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function searchFunction() {
var searchTerm = document.searchBox.keyword.value;
$(" :contains('"+searchTerm+"')").addStyle("display:block"); }
</script>
Try this
function searchFunction() {
var searchTerm = document.searchBox.keyword.value;
$(".searchable").each(function(){
$(this).(":contains('"+searchTerm+"')").show();
});
}
Try this.
function searchFunction() {
$(".searchable")
.hide()
.filter(":contains('" + $("input[name='keyword']").val() + "')")
.show();
}
