Search and Replace Anchor Href using Javascript
I have a site that is under development and it was made really badly so I needed a quick way to replace all anchors on page to the relevant path.
The problem is because it was a testsite that lived away from the public facing domain, the anchors had to be changed because they were all coded in as absolute paths.
I included a JavascriptDebug file and put the following in there:
function replaceAnchorsTestSite(){
var allAnchors = document.getElementsByTagName("a");
var string1 = "http://***.***.***.***/testsite/";
var string2 = "http://***.***.***.***/";
for (var i=0; i<allAnchors.length; i++) {
var str = allAnchors[i].href;
allAnchors[i].href = str.replace(string2, string1);
}
}
window.onload = replaceAnchorsTestSite;
var allAnchors = document.getElementsByTagName("a");
var string1 = "http://***.***.***.***/testsite/";
var string2 = "http://***.***.***.***/";
for (var i=0; i<allAnchors.length; i++) {
var str = allAnchors[i].href;
allAnchors[i].href = str.replace(string2, string1);
}
}
window.onload = replaceAnchorsTestSite;
I then placed the following at the bottom of the index page to start it all up.
<script src="http://***.***.***.***/testsite/jsDev.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
