Reading an array of numbers

[The Ax]

I want to read this array backwards.
http://hiscore.runescape.com/index_l...r=grimmstriker
Its not my site so I cant find the arrays name

instead of:
1319710,847,1620107 -1,-1,-1

i want
line1 = 1319710,847,1620107
line2 = -1,-1,-1

It's not possible by default to read data from another domain:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same_origin_policy

If you have the possibility to install Perl scripts, you might be
interested in a cross-domain AJAX call:
http://www.ajax-cross-domain.com/

instead of:
1319710,847,1620107 -1,-1,-1

i want
line1 = 1319710,847,1620107
line2 = -1,-1,-1

Suppose you have put the output from your link in a js variable, then
you could do this:

// Initial data (exact from your link)
var data = '1319842,847,1620107\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '1986686,54,151953\n';
data += '738525,63,370092\n';
data += '1344192,41,43535\n';
data += '1647561,47,81344\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '1344271,62,347527\n';
data += '887647,54,151408\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '1551896,43,53020\n';
data += '1281239,44,59664\n';
data += '1700818,41,43035\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '1291525,31,15771\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '427209,42,48164\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '-1,-1,-1\n';
data += '-1,-1\n';
data += '-1,-1\n';
data += '-1,-1\n';
data += '-1,-1';

// Split on end-of-line
var line = data.split('\n');

// Now print the ones you like (the first starts at zero)
alert(line[0]);
alert(line[1]);
alert(line[14]);

Whatup The Ax:

Try something like this, just add the request to get the string from
the url, split it into a stack and pop em off the end.

var myString = "1319851,847,1620107 -1,-1,-1 -1,-1,-1 -1,-1,-1
1986710,54,151953 738534,63,370092 1344203,41,43535 1647581,47,81344
-1,-1,-1 1344287,62,347527 887655,54,151408 -1,-1,-1 1551915,43,53020
1281250,44,59664 1700835,41,43035 -1,-1,-1 -1,-1,-1 1291539,31,15771
-1,-1,-1 -1,-1,-1 -1,-1,-1 427213,42,48164 -1,-1,-1 -1,-1,-1 -1,-1,-1
-1,-1 -1,-1 -1,-1 -1,-1";
var myArr = myString.split(",");

var myBackwardString = "";
while(myArr.length) {
myBackwardString += myArr.pop()+',';
}
document.write(myBackwardString);

Good Luck!

var myBackwardString = myString.split(',').reverse().join(',');
document.write(myBackwardString);

Maybe I was'nt quite clear enough.

I want to download those numbers (separated by \n) into my web page
BUT, the numbers are not always the same.

Does that make sence?

Thanks for the feedback

That does not solve the OPs parsing problem at all. This would:

var s = "1319710,847,1620107 -1,-1,-1";
var lines = s.split(/\s+/);

lines[0]
...
lines[14]

W3Schools is junk, too. Experience shows it is to be recommended against as
a Web development reference instead.

Yes, and ?
The separator (\n) is always the same, no ?

Does that make sence?

What is the problem ?

Thanks for the feedback

It's OK too with
javascript:alert(document.body.innerHTML);
as this is too with :
javascript:document.body.innerHTML=document.body.i nnerHTML.split('\n').join('<br>');
or this one :
javascript:document.body.innerHTML=document.body.i nnerHTML.replace(/\n/g,'<br>');

In your page that could give :
document.getElementById('results').innerHTML=trucb idule.split('\n').join('<br>');
or :
document.getElementById('results').innerHTML=trucb idule.replace(/\n/g,'<br>');

The alone question would have to be : how to get 'trucbidule' ?
If 'index_lite.ws' is not on same domain as your page you can't get it
with only the JavaScript; you'll have to use server side code.

No, it's only a matter of preference. None of these notations is
better/worse than the other.

As the OP writes himself, '\n' is his line separator. No need to use
'\s+' then.

I think repeated `+=' is less efficient and harder to maintain than several
`+' in one assignment.

It would appear that the original posting used the wrong separator. I have
read the original poster's clarification afterwards, since that came later
than your posting.
