I currently have a html textarea that saves to a textfile on a button press (using javascript)
This works fine but i have been told that they now need page numbers and page totals and if possible a header on each page. If i can work out the total line numbers for a printed A4 page then i can insert a header for every nth line.
This is the javascript code im currently using.
function saveTextAsFile()
{
var textToWrite = "School Centre Number: " + document.getElementById("centernumber").value + "\nStudent Name:" + document.getElementById("studentname").value + "\r\n" + "Date and Time: " + document.getElementById("date").value+" " + document.getElementById("time").value+ "\r\n"+ "Exam Title: "+ document.getElementById("examtitle").value+ "\r\n\r\n"+document.getElementById("inputText").value;
textToWrite = textToWrite.replace(/\n/g, "\r\n");
var textFileAsBlob = new Blob([textToWrite], {type:'text/plain'});
var fileNameToSaveAs = document.getElementById("inputFileNameToSaveAs").value;
var downloadLink = document.createElement("a");
downloadLink.download = fileNameToSaveAs;
downloadLink.innerHTML = "Download File";
if (window.webkitURL != null)
{
downloadLink.href = window.webkitURL.createObjectURL(textFileAsBlob);
}
else
{
downloadLink.href = window.URL.createObjectURL(textFileAsBlob);
downloadLink.onclick = destroyClickedElement;
downloadLink.style.display = "none";
document.body.appendChild(downloadLink);
}
downloadLink.click();
}
Thankyou for any feedback
ps preferably with no external libraries using html and javascript
