I'd like to look/search a webpage body for a regular expression that matches (in this example PO123456 should). If found I'd like an alert saying it was found and the script to stop running. If a RegEx match was not found I'd like it to reload the page repeatedly until a match is found. I will then paste this script into TamperMonkey to use on a page that currently requires me to press refresh repeatedly like a lab animal.
The following does not work, yet...
// ==UserScript==
// @name Reload Page If RegEx Match Not Found
// @namespace
// @version 0.1
// @description Reloads Page Until RegEx Match Found
// @author TJ
// @match https://system.fakepage.com/someotherpage
// @grant none
// ==/UserScript==
$(document).ready(function()
{
var regex = /^PO\d{6}g/;
var PO = str.match(regex);
if($('body:contains("' + PO + '")').length > 0)
{
alert("Found: " + PO);
}
else
{
location.reload();
}
});
Please help the bird out smart the pavlovian control system by helping me figure this script out! (once tested I'd like to do away with the alert.)
