89.181.107.87: /* Replace html markup in html characters */

Javascript is a client-side scripting language. Its main differences relative to server-sided languages is that it is run by the client machine instead of the server machine. This can be useful in order to unload the server machine. Combined with [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xml XML] technology it forms the core-technology of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajax_(programming) AJAX] programming philosophy.

==Replace html markup in html characters==
Here's how to replace html markup in html characters
<code>divtag.replace(/<([^<>]*)>/g,"&lt;$1&gt;")</code>

==[[Bookmarklets]]==
[[Bookmarklets]] are little javascript one-liners that aim to compose a more or less complex [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Url url].

==Examples==

===Del.icio.us mp3 player user script===
This one should work for GreaseMonkey in Firefox as well in Opera 9.X (save it as
'''deliciousmp3.user.js''').

// ==UserScript==
// @name del.icio.us mp3
// @namespace
// @description add del.icio.us mp3 player to links
// @include http://*
// @exclude http://*.icio.us/*
// ==/UserScript==
var head,script;
head = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0];
if (head){
script = document.createElement('script');
script.type = 'text/javascript';
script.src = 'http://del.icio.us/js/playtagger'
head.appendChild(script);
}
