Alternative To Checkboxes And Radio Buttons - Click On Words ThatHighlight

Mar 25, 2007

I have an application with an input form that sometimes has a hundred or
so check boxes organized into groups of about 10 choices. The boxes are
difficult to check because the target is small and after the user
chooses a dozen or so choices, the result is difficult to see.

I was thinking that an alternative would be to just have the single word
choices highlight after being checked. This would result in bigger
targets, denser forms, and would be easier to see.

Does anyone have any pointers to pages or examples that implement a
similar solution using CSS and Javascript?

Finding End Result With Checkboxes / Radio Buttons In One Calculation

Feb 27, 2009

Having trouble calculating the final cost of choices made by a user. I have 4 radio buttons and 2 checkboxes. The first three radio buttons are, all intensive purposes, chocolates with the last radio button stating that the user doesn't want any of the chocolates. The two checkboxes are a milkshake and candyfloss respectively. The user may only choose one of the three chocolates and optionally the milkshake, candyfloss or both.

What I have so far is as follows:
Javascript code
function calc(sec,val,item)
{
if(!item) {
var item = null;
}
switch(sec)
{

case 1:
Some code for a different function.
break

case 2:
cValue = parseInt(document.getElementById("purchaseTotal").value);
if(item.checked){
document.getElementById("purchaseTotal").value = cValue+val;
}else{
document.getElementById("purchaseTotal").value = cValue-val;
} break;
} }
html
<td>Chocolate 1: ZAR 5.00</td>
<td><input name="chocolate" type="radio" id="chocolate" value="" onClick="calc(2,5.00, this);">
</td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Chocolate 2: ZAR 5.00</td>
<td><input name="chocolate" type="radio" id="chocolate" value="" onClick="calc(2,5.00, this);">
</td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Chocolate 3: ZAR 1 200.00</td>
<td><input name="chocolate" type="radio" id="chocolate" value="" onClick="calc(2,5.00, this);">
</td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>I do not wish to buy a chocolate.</td>
<td><input name="chocolate" type="radio" id="chocolate" value="" onClick="calc(2,0, this);">
</td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Milkshake: ZAR 13.00</td>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="milkshake" id="milkshake" value="" onClick="calc(2,13.00, this);"></td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Candyfloss: ZAR 8.00</td>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="candyfloss" id="candyfloss" value="" onClick="calc(2,8.00, this);"></td>
<td> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="3" align="right" valign="top">Total ZAR <input name="purchaseTotal" type="text" id="purchaseTotal" value="0"></td>

What happens at the moment is that clicking on one radio button doesn't subtract the amount from the previous selected radio button and clicking on the same radio button just keeps adding its value to the total. I'd like it to do the opposite and not add to the total if clicked repeatedly and if another radio button is selected the amount of the previous radio button must be deducted from the total.

Option Calculator Form With Radio Buttons And Checkboxes

Aug 23, 2010

I am trying to make an option calculator for my site. The user will click on various radio buttons and checkboxes, before pressing the calculate button. The button will then add up all the values to show the overall figure. The code shown below is what I have so far.

Code:
function calcMe(){
for (var i=0; i < document.form.radio.length; i++){
if (document.form.radio[i].checked){
var rad_val = document.form.radio[i].value;
}} if (document.form.radio1.checked) {
document.form.result.value = rad_val;
} if (document.form.radio2.checked) { .....

The first javascript is to show the value of the radio button with the textfield attached - when the user puts a number in the textfield, it will update the value of the radio button. The second javascript is to check the document for the clicked radio buttons and checkboxes. It then adds up all the clicked values to show the answer. The problem that I am having is to put these two javascripts together so as the radio button is updated with the text field value as well as adding up all the clicked values.

Get Radio Button Validation For Different Sets Of Radio Buttons That Simply Contains Yes & No Buttons

Nov 28, 2009

I'm trying to get a radio button validation for different sets of radio buttons that simply contains Yes & No buttons.

Here's what I'm trying to do:

Question 1: if Yes, then (Alert 1) if No, then (Alert 2) (if Yes, then Question 2 appears) *Up to here I'm happy- can't figure out the rest*

Question 2: if Yes, then (Alert 1) if No, then (Alert 2) (if Yes, then Question 3 appears)

I need the Alerts to be swapped from this point*

Question 3: if Yes, then (Alert 2) if No, then (Alert 1) (if NO, then Question 4 appears)

Identical for Question 5, and for Last Question 6 Alerts swapped back again.)

Here's the script that I managed to piece together:

Radio Buttons: Preventing The OnClick Event If The Radio Button Is Already Checked

Mar 23, 2009

I have a set of radio buttons each with an onclick event that has a numeric value. When the button is clicked an input box called "Total" is updated with the new value. The problem I'm having is that if a radio button is checked and one clicks on it again then the onclick event is triggered.

Is there any way to prevent the onclick event from triggering if the radio button is already checked?

Radio Buttons To Become Submit Buttons

Jun 17, 2011

I want my radio buttons to become submit buttons as well. So when a user clicks on a radio button it submits the action and refreshes the page accordingly. As of now using only using onclick="this.form.submit()" the page only refreshes with no change. Here is a copy of the entire form. It is a custom shipping options form (I did not create it).

<!-- Custom shipping form -->
<form action="" method="post" name="update_shipping">
<table width="300">

Using Buttons To Check And Uncheck Checkboxes

Dec 8, 2010

I'm trying to write some code that uses buttons to check and uncheck certain checkboxes. I am stumped and all the code I have been finding is using for loops to check or uncheck all the boxes, when I just want to check or uncheck certain ones. Here's an example of the type of function I'm trying to use:
function checkSome (form) {
document.myForm.list.one.checked = true;
document.myForm.list.two.checked = true;
document.myForm.list.three.checked = false;
}
And the button:
<input type="button" value="Option 1" onClick="checkSome(this.form)"/>

Dynamic Display Of Radio/Checkboxes

Jul 23, 2005

I'm looking to display the value of radio buttons and check boxes on the
page before submission. So far I can do most of it. When "Hat" is checked
there are to be no color options available. Click on shirt or pants, you
have three options, (actually four if you chose "None"). Shirts and pants
can have multiple colors.

OK, here is the issue, if you choose a color then change your mind and then
un-check the box, it doubles up the 'display' on the page ("strCavTop"). I
want it to clear the 'display' ("strCavTop") of that one value if the box is
clicked to un-check it.

Is there another way to display the data other than a form text box, like a
table cell or something similar? I willing to bet there is a more
economical way to do this, so if there is I'm open to any suggestions. Code:

JQuery :: Dynamically Created Buttons Click Event Fires Last Bound Event For All Buttons?

Aug 24, 2011

I create buttons from an array of objects that such as:

buttons = [{ text: "button 1", action: 1}, {text: "button 2", action: 2}];

I then loop thru the array to assign the text and bind the click event after having created the buttons with IDs of "button_<index>".

for( var index in buttons ) {
$("#button_"+index).html ( buttons[index].text )
.click( function() { clickButton( buttons[index].action ) } );
}

The text appears correctly in the button, but every button defined only fires the list bound click, in this example the action equal to'2'whether I push "Button 1" or "Button 2".My actual case has four buttons, all firing the event for the fourth button.I've tried not chaining the .click(), going thru the loop twice once for the .html and once for the .click, neither of which made a difference. If I hard code each button .click, it works fine.

Javascript Validation Of Radio, Checkboxes And Text

Jan 18, 2005

I use the following code on a form (which works)

function SubmitDocument(){
var frm=document.forms[0];
if(frm.QuestionSeventeen.value=="") {
alert("Please enter your postcode");
window.document.forms[0].QuestionSeventeen.focus();
return false;
}
else
document.forms[0].submit();
}

This is fine, because QuestionSeventeen is a text field. However, I have a number of radio and checkbox values on my form which I need to make sure are not NULL.

I want to make this more efficient and not use LOTS of these nested IFs.

i.e., does anyone have any code that will check firstly specified text fields, then radio buttons, then checkboxes in a more efficient manner?

so.... somthing like this process is what I want to achieve

Function validate()

- make array of text fields, loop through them checking not null THEN
- make array of checkbox fields, loop through them checking not null THEN
- make array of radio button fields, loop through them checking not null THEN

If all OK, save doc otherwise alert that field needs to be filled in then gocus on that field END FUNCTION
