Alright, so I'm not sure if I should be asking this here or HTML/JavaScript forums, so please do let me know if I am in the wrong place. I believe it belongs here as you all understand dApps and Solidity.
How can I make it so that when an user inputs a string in my dApp, I add the double quotation marks to it before passing the string onto the smart contract's function?
So, what I have now is a dApp that uses the HTML input
tag to gather a string that is a parameter of a function in my smart contract. However, for the calling of the function to work, I need to add double quotation marks to the string, so that the contract recognizes this.
I don't want users to have to add the quotation marks, so I'd like to "pre-add" them, either on HTML or JavaScript, without the user seeing them there. Any suggestions on how to do this? Current code below:
HTML input tag:
<input id="string" type="text">
JQuery code:
$("#button2").click(function(web3) {
var tx = Contract.function($("#string")[0].value, {
from: address,
gas: "3000000",
to: "Contract address here",
value: "0",
data: ""
}, function(err, transactionHash) {
if (!err)
console.log(transactionHash);
})
})
