How to check whether there are cyrillic symbols, typed on a field

12 Aug 2018, 10:35

The situation is this one:

I have a web page with some amount of fields. In some fields the typed text is English, in other - Cyrillic+English.
I need to jump with Tab button between all the fields and to check whether there are cyriliic symbols, typed on the field. If there are such symbols - to copy the field content to the cipboard and to jump to the next field.

Is this possible to be done with AHK?

just an idea
EDIT1 = added stringlen
EDIT2 = skip if only latin characters / save to notepad not latin characters / add numbers from edit
EDIT3 = check for cyrillic

Code: Select all

;- notepad++ save as UTF-8-BOM
;- use TAB for check the 4 EDIT's / SKIP if latin characters
;- https://unicode-table.com/en/#0421
;- MODIFIED=20180813 11:18  parse for ASCII 1024-1279 (cyrillic)

Re: How to check whether there are cyrillic symbols, typed on a field

Hi lodiko,

You can use regexmatch.

Code: Select all

#NoEnv
#SingleInstance force
#Warn

HTML =
(
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
	<head>
		<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"><meta charset="utf-8" />
		<title>test</title>
	</head>
	<body>
		<input type="text" value="мова"><br>
		<input type="text" value="Москва"><br>
		<input type="text" value="Қазақстан"><br>
		<input type="text" value="Paris"><br>
		<input type="text" value="english-русский"><br>
		<input type="text" value=""><br>
	</body>
</html>
)
GUI, Add, ActiveX, vHTMLDoc w400 h400, HTMLFile ; create a HTML document object for testing purpose
HTMLDoc.write(HTML)
HTMLDoc.close()
GUI, Show, AutoSize
return

!i::
clipboard := "" ; empty the clipboard
result := ""
inputFields := HTMLDoc.getElementsByTagName("input") ; returns a collection of all elements in the document with the input tag name
Loop % inputFields.length
{
	fieldCurrent := inputFields[ a_index - 1 ]
	fieldCurrentContent := fieldCurrent.value
	if (containsCyrillic:=containsCyrillic(fieldCurrentContent)) ; if the field does contain any cyrillic characters...
		result .= fieldCurrentContent . "`r`n" ; ...append it to the overall result
	; MsgBox % fieldCurrentContent . " does" . (containsCyrillic ? A_Space : " not ") . "contain cyrillic characters."
}
clipboard := result
MsgBox % "Result has been copied to clipboard."
return

containsCyrillic(_string) {
; return RegExMatch(_string, "\p{Cyrillic}") ; regexmatch specifying an Unicode character property in option (https://autohotkey.com/docs/misc/RegEx-QuickRef.htm)
return _string ~= "\p{Cyrillic}" ; same as above using a shorthand operator
}
- btw:
- Cyrillic (range: 0400 — 04FF)
- 0400/1024 04FF/1279 255 characters (1279-1024)

Code: Select all

MsgBox % Chr(1024) ; Cyrillic Capital Letter Ie with Grave (https://unicode-table.com/fr/0400/)
MsgBox % Chr(1279) ; Cyrillic Small Letter Ha with Stroke (https://unicode-table.com/fr/04FF/)
Hope this helps.

Re: How to check whether there are cyrillic symbols, typed on a field

12 Aug 2018, 14:43

A_AhkUser,

This may help me. But how to proceed when every field in the web page has a different name?

Is it possible to do this thing - when the script detects Cyrillic symbol in the field to:
1. cut field's entire content into the clipboard
2. enter '1' in the beginning of the field
3. paste the clipboard right after the '1'

and after this the script jumps to the next field and makes the same check.
When the field is filled only with English symbols, to jump directly to the next field.

I tried this / modified script above

@A_AhkUser , thank you for cyrillic codes chr(1024)-- chr(1279)
( sometimes russian also only contents latin letters , example : Actaha, CCCP, Capaebo, Beha .... )

What do you mean by 'name'?
. input elements' 'value' attribute values (i.e. the visible content of the fields)?
. input elements' 'name' attribute values?
. tag names?
The first two should not be an issue as demonstrated in the example above and, a fortiori in the following example. Based on your description I assume that the clipboard is at stake here only to manipulate a temporary value. Correct me if I'm wrong. If so,I suggest instead to simply update the value of the input element:

Code: Select all

#NoEnv
#SingleInstance force
#Warn

HTML =
(
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
	<head>
		<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"><meta charset="utf-8" />
		<title>test</title>
	</head>
	<body>
		<input type="text" name="test1" value="мова"> Ukrainian<br>
		<input type="text" name="test2" value="Москва"> Russian<br>
		<input type="text" name="test3" value="Қазақстан"> Kazakh<br>
		<input type="text" name="test4" value="Paris"> French<br>
		<input type="text" name="test5" value="english-русский"> A combination of the two<br>
		<input type="text" name="test6" value=""> Nothing<br>
	</body>
</html>
)
GUI, Add, ActiveX, vHTMLDoc w400 h400, HTMLFile ; create a HTML document object for testing purpose
HTMLDoc.write(HTML)
HTMLDoc.close()
GUI, Show, AutoSize
return

!i::
	inputFields := HTMLDoc.getElementsByTagName("input") ; returns a collection of all elements in the document with the input tag name
	Loop % inputFields.length
	{
		fieldCurrent := inputFields[ a_index - 1 ]
		fieldCurrentContent := fieldCurrent.value
		if (fieldCurrentContent ~= "\p{Cyrillic}") { ; if the field does contain any cyrillic characters...
			fieldCurrent.value := "1" . fieldCurrentContent ;  update its value by prepending '1' in the beginning of the field
		}
	}
return
If you want to operate on a specific subset of input element with a specific name attribute, use the getELementsByName method.

Yes but it is only true from a visual standpoint (furthermore, even that statement might be wrong when switching from a font to another one).

Code: Select all

; CCCP = Союз Советских Социалистических Республик
; Chr(67) ; Latin Capital Letter C - https://unicode-table.com/en/0043/
; Chr(1057) ; Cyrillic Capital Letter Es - https://unicode-table.com/en/0421/
; btw Сараево != *Сараеbо; Астана

string1 := Chr(67) . "оюз " . Chr(67) . "оветских " . Chr(67) . "оциалистических Республик"
string2 := Chr(1057) . "оюз " . Chr(1057) . "оветских " . Chr(1057) . "оциалистических Республик"
MsgBox % string1 . "`r`n" . string2 " `r`n" ((string1 = string2) ? "are equal" : "are NOT equal, despite appearances!;)")

Excuse me for the stupid questions, but as you see, I'm completely new here.
@A_AhkUser, yes I thing in my case I need to check fields with a different tag names. But I don't know how to do this.
That's how the webform looks:

Yea you're right they looks like textarea elements; I would have though of that.. This does not fundamentally change the script - the same example using textarea elements instead:

Code: Select all

#NoEnv
#SingleInstance force
#Warn

HTML =

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
	<head>
		<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"><meta charset="utf-8" />

	<body>
		<textarea rows="3" cols="40">мова</textarea>
		<textarea rows="3" cols="40">Москва</textarea>
		<textarea rows="3" cols="40">Қазақстан</textarea>
		<textarea rows="3" cols="40">Paris</textarea>
		<textarea rows="3" cols="40">english-русский</textarea>
		<textarea rows="3" cols="40"></textarea>
	</body>
</html>
)
GUI, Add, ActiveX, vHTMLDoc w400 h400, HTMLFile ; create a HTML document object for testing purpose
HTMLDoc.write(HTML)
HTMLDoc.close()
GUI, Show, AutoSize
return

!i::
	textAreas := HTMLDoc.getElementsByTagName("textarea")
	Loop % textAreas.length
	{
		this_textArea := textAreas[ a_index - 1 ]
		this_textAreaContent := this_textArea.innerText
		if (this_textAreaContent ~= "\p{Cyrillic}") { ; if the field does contain any cyrillic characters...
			this_textArea.innerText := "1" . this_textAreaContent ;  update its value by prepending '1' in the beginning of the field
		}
	}
return
