I have following line of code in jQuery:
inputPhoneNumber.val(inputPhoneCountry + inputPhoneMain); What is the best way of adding two characters (00) in front of those two values inside the inputPhoneNumber variable? Regular JS string concatenation like:
inputPhoneNumber.val('00' + inputPhoneCountry + inputPhoneMain); ...doesn't work for me.
I do not see why
inputPhoneNumber.val('00' + inputPhoneCountry + inputPhoneMain); should not work unless inputPhoneNumber is a type=number in which case it MIGHT remove the leading 0s (but it doesn't)
Try template literals and a text field
inputPhoneNumber.val(`00${inputPhoneCountry}${inputPhoneMain}`); In testing it does not make a difference
const inputPhoneCountry = 31; const inputPhoneMain = 612345678; $("#inputPhoneNumber1").val(`00${inputPhoneCountry}${inputPhoneMain}`); $("#inputPhoneNumber2").val(`00${inputPhoneCountry}${inputPhoneMain}`);<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script> <input type="number" id="inputPhoneNumber1" /> <input type="text" id="inputPhoneNumber2" />This works for me:
inputPhoneNumber.val('00' + inputPhoneCountry + inputPhoneMain); This works too:
inputPhoneNumber.val(`00${inputPhoneCountry}${inputPhoneMain}`); Still if it doenst work for you, you can break them and use only one var for it. Example:
var inputPhoneCountry = 10; var inptPhoneMain = 20; var finalNumber = '00' + inputPhoneCountry + inptPhoneMain; alert(finalNumber);
