jquery – Formfill in Javascript not working?

jquery – Formfill in Javascript not working?

I think the error is with this line

if (!$(#tagnames).val().length)

length will return a number and check that against number.

Something like

if ($(#tagnames).val().length > 0)

I dont think there is a need to place document ready inside the if statement. Isnt this better.

 $(function() { 
       var tagMatch;
       if (tagMatch = window.location.href.match(//questions/ask?tags=([^&]+)/)) 
       {
           if ($(#tagnames).val().length > 0)
           {
               $(#tagnames).val(unescape(match[1].replace(/+/g,  ));
           }
       }
    });

Without looking too much into how the string matching works…

You seem to be defining and setting a variable called tagMatch, but then youre using a variable called match to set the value.

Is that the problem?

Update: Apologies – your regex is correct – I misread the intention 🙂
