Newbie: Run Javascript command

[ubotapp 0]

I would like to use Javascript to do some complicated string manipulation. How can I pass in multiple variables #var1, #var2, #var3, run javascript, and then return #value?

 

I have version 4.0

 

Thanks

What is it you are trying to achieve exactly?

Hey John

 

i have a csv file with 15 scraped urls in it

all the urls are mostly the same except a folder on the domain

for example:

 

http://ubotstudio.com/tutorials/blahblah.html,http://ubotstudio.com/tutorials/adifferentblah.html,http://ubotstudio.com/tutorials/otherblah.html,and so on

 

I want to search through it and find a specific url and determine its position in the file (ie column number)

then return the column number as a variable to use elsewhere in the bot

 

i have tried $contains to search the variable (the url is set as a variable) and cannot get it to work :|

 

probably easy peasy to a JS ninja like yourself

thanks

It doesn't sound like it needs any javascript. You can loop through the list and insert the if(list item)--->contains(something) condition...
