HTML objects with jQuery

Question

I would like to replace the value of the submit button Loading….

The problem is that when I press the button, I still see …instead of three dots.

Here is my code:

$("#myid").val("Loading…");

Should I enter the ellipsis directly from the keyboard in the code above? Is it safe with UTF-8?

Answer 1

val()or valuesets the value of plain text. …- This is HTML, not text; you can use it in innerHTMLor .html(), but not in the value of the form field.

If you want to include U + 2026 HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS in a JavaScript string where the encoding is not guaranteed, you can avoid it:

'Loading\u2026'

keybord ? UTF-8?
