Automatically Adding Form Fields As They're Filled?
Dec 13, 2010
I have a form that has 9 pairs of fields on it. I'd like to change this so that there are only two blank pairs of fields displayed. As the user fills out a pair of fields, it adds another pair of blank fields. This way, the user can fill out as many as their heart desires, but those who don't have that much information to provide, aren't confronted with an unnecessarily huge form of blank fields.
Basically, I've setup a form to have all the required data written to a csv file. Now, The only thing is some of the non-required fields are filled in and some people don't fill them in, so when I import it into excel, the fields move about. What I need to know, is there a condition I can set to have a value written into all the empty fields when it is submitted?
Here is where I am with that so far: if (app100.address2.value == "") { doc.write("N/A"); }
How do I disable the submit button if all required fields in a form are not filled in? Say I have a form with Name, Age,message, and email. Name, message and email must be filled in or else the submit button will not show or will be disabled and then enabled once filled. If the fields are filled in then the submit button will show. If the fields are filled in but then one is deleted then the submit button will hide. Ideally if I can have it disabled that will work, if not I will settle on hide at this point.
What I want to happen is that when I select the date through the drop down menus for day, month and year, I want the semester textbox to automatically fill in the semester depending on the date chosen. E.g. If the user chose the date 23rd June 2012 from the drop down menus, then the semester textbox below should automatically be filled in with the semester 'Summer'.
Below is the dates and semester: 1st September - 30th November = Autumn 1st December - 28th February = Winter 1st March - 31st May = Spring 1st June - 30th August = Summer
There are many ways for setting focus on form fields. I'm actually looking for some code that automatically detects if there is any form on the page & then automatically sets the focus to the first field of the form.
No need of putting Form Name & Field Name in Javascript. Is there any way to do this ???
I've done a search for this because I'm certain I'm not the first to have this problem, but I could not find the solutions. I am marginally experienced with PHP but have no knowledge of javascript. This is for a scheduling program. Prior to generating the form, the question is asked as to how many days are needed, and the form automatically generates the appropriate # of fields. They are, for this example, as follows:
Day 1, Title 1, Description 1 Day 2, Title 2, Description 2 Day 3, Title 3, Description 3 Day 4, Title 4, Description 4
I would like to add a checkbox (entitled "Same as Previous Day") that allows the user to duplicate the previous entry, populate the fields so the database is properly filled, and make the fields it just populated uneditable. So for the example, if day 2 and 3 were the same as day 1, I could select a box for each day 2 and day 3 and their titles and descriptions would be filled with the information from Day 1.
I have a working contact form with 3 of the fields requiring validation and they work well. I have added extra fields to the form (StatusClass, Project, CameFrom). These 3 fields return fine but I need to validated them. My problem is that the new fields don't show in the behaviours/validate panel even though they are within the form tag.
<script type="text/JavaScript"> <!-- function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01 var p,i,x; if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) { d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}
Here is my issue that I am trying to resolve. I know how to make a field in a form required for validation however what I am trying to do is require that at least one of two available fields is filled in. The form performs a search using the 'first name', 'last name' or both. What I need is for the form to require at a minimum that at least one of the two fields is filled in prior to sending it to the script to do the search.Here is what it should do in each instance:
[first name] [NA] = form submitted [NA] [last name] = form submitted [first name] [last name] = form submitted [na] [na] = Not submitted
I'm attempting to sum/add up values within 4 different form fields on the fly, but keep getting a result of NaN....not sure what I'm doing wrong....here's my code:
function calculate(totalElement) { for (var i=1,app_pend_end=0;i<5;i++) app_pend_end += what.elements['textField' + i].value - 0;
I'm working on what is currently a simple form, which will include a list of the users friends. However, seeing as everyone's going to have a different number of friends to submit, I'd really like to just have 1 "Friend" field and a button to "Add another friend" next to it.
The idea is that when someone clicks on the "Add Friend" button, another text field will appear (with another Add button), allowing the user to input more contact details.
I think I'm right in saying that I'd need JavaScript to do this, but other than that I really don't have any idea.
Would somebody be able to let me or know? Or post up a link to a relvant tutorial?
i'm trying to make a form in which a user can add additional fields by pressing on a button. At the moment, my code looks like this:
Code: <FORM id = "myform" name = "myform" method = "post" action = "somefile.php"> <table border = "1" name = "datatable" id = "datatable"> some html <tr> <td colspan = "7"><A HREF = "javascript:addElement(datatable);" name = "add" id = "add"> Add another searchfield</A></td></tr>
[Code]...
However already this doesn't work, and refuses to delete anything. The function does load successfully when the link is clicked ( I tested this by adding an alert).
How can I add more <input type="file" /> -fields by the click of a button? The idea is that the clients should be able to upload a number of files from the same form, but I shouldn't need to know how many fields they need to begin with. Would be good to have an option to remove fields as well.
I am new to the AJAX world and would like to do something simple, but have not found any examples of it. Maybe I am searching the wrong things.I have a simple form.
I'm running two different forms on one page.Each form goes to a different place - one form does stuff on a different server and one form does stuff on the same server.This is being accomplished by using the following script (found here on WebDeveloper)
HTML Code:
<script language='javascript'> <!-- function doit()
<form id='form2' name="form2" method="POST" action="attachscript.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" target='_blank'> There is no submit function in the forms.
After the two forms are listed, there's one link that processes both forms at the same time when clicked:
HTML Code:
<div align="center"><a href='javascript:doit()'>Click Here To Submit</a></div>
Here's the good news: THIS WORKS. This is not the problem.The problem is my client wants most/all of the content in form2 to be filled out. If the fields are not filled out, then something happened that says in effect "yo. fill that out!"I've tried to use javascript validation scripts and they don't work. Presumably because they depend upon
My client wants to upload multiple files to the server using the FILE type input of the form. Their requirement says that once they click the browse button of the FILE INPUT type , besides file browsing window another FILE FIELD is added at the bottom of this one. and when the user clicks the browse button of second, it adds another until the user clicks the UPLOAD button to submit the form.
I dont know it is possible or not ???? if yes then please tell me how.
The alternate way is to give drop down menu with number and when the USER chooses certain number then ..that amount of FILE FORM FIELDS will be added. i.e if user chooses 3 then three file fields are there to upload 3 files at a time.
I have written a script that i am pasting here, but when i choose the drop down menu and select value the FILE FIELDS are shown but the original drop down menu vanishes.. Please review my code and modify it or refer some script to me.
IF The first choice is possible, i mean adding each FILED by browse button click , then tell me its code, other wise modify this code that i am pasting or give me some link to download a premade script. Code:
I want to do is add the values of seven text fields on a form and pop that value to an eighth field. I thought the code below would work, but I get "NaN" on the sum field.
Code: function addHazWaste() { document.getElementById('HazardousWaste').value = 0; var HazWasteTotal = 0; var HazWaste1 = 0; var HazWaste2 = 0; var HazWaste3 = 0; var HazWaste4 = 0; var HazWaste5 = 0; var HazWaste6 = 0; var HazWaste7 = 0; HazWaste1 = parseInt(document.getElementById('HazardousWasteSentToLandfill').value,10); HazWaste2 = parseInt(document.getElementById('HazardousWasteSentToWasteToEnergy').value,10); HazWaste3 = parseInt(document.getElementById('HazardousWasteIncinerated').value,10); HazWaste4 = parseInt(document.getElementById('HazardousWasteRecycled').value,10); HazWaste5 = parseInt(document.getElementById('HazardousWasteReused').value,10); HazWaste6 = parseInt(document.getElementById('BiohazardousWasteSentToLandfill').value,10); HazWaste7 = parseInt(document.getElementById('BiohazardousWasteIncinerated').value,10); HazWasteTotal = HazWaste1 + HazWaste2 + HazWaste3 + HazWaste4 + HazWaste5 + HazWaste6 + HazWaste7; document.getElementById('HazardousWaste').value = HazWasteTotal; }
If I run a separate function that just sets all form field values to zero (including the first line of this function). The summing works!!! Why won't it work the way I wrote it??? It won't work if I set the default value for the sum field to zero, either...
I'm facing a validation error, whenever I leave any of the fields blank, it gives me a warning and then it redirects me to (index.php?option=com_ccnewsletter&view=ccnewsletter)What I wanna know is how can I freeze the page until all fields are filled?This is the javascript code:
<script type="text/javascript"> function formsubmit(task) {[code]....
I'm having some trouble with my dynamically generated form fields.
As you can see I'm generating new form fields, but the problem lies within the grade field. I have it set up now so that when you change the grade the color of the <select> box changes relative to the grade. A-D are green, F is black with white text, Not Taken is just regular white with black text and In Progress is lightly shaded grey.
I want it so that each one can be changed individually, but I can't seem to be able to figure out how to do that. Heck if you change the first one's grade field, that colour follows the rest of the clones.
This is the jQuery I'm using to change the color of the thing.
I have a simple three-field form in a UI Dialog that, prior to POSTing, I need to validate using the jQuery Validation plugin.Currently, if the user clicks the form's Submit button (the form's action for the PHP form handling is the page with the link that opens the Dialog in the first place) with a field not properly filled out, the Dialog just closes.Clicking again on the link that opens the Dialog form will show the form with the error message(s) that the Validator generated on the previous click of the submit button.How can I keep the Dialog open and prevent a POST until the form validates?
I have this form with multiple links on the page. The links all go to the same place as the form (once submitted). If any of these links are clicked, I need some js that makes sure the form is filled out before proceeding to the next page.
There are two input fields in a form, but only one of them is required, they are not required at the same time. Either A or B is required. ( A is required OR B is required). In other words, a user can input data to field A, or he can input data to filed B, but he can not input data to Both A and B at the same time. How to implement this constraint in Jquery form validation?
I'm new to Javascript, and just trying to make a simple program that adds two numbers and displays the result automatically in the third field without clicking a button "onclick".I have the following so far, but still not working properly: ttp://pastie.org/private/sy8lkdhvfunudvrizbjjca
I have a form in which a user can create from 1 table to 10 tables which will dynamically create 2 HTML radio buttons, 12 checkboxes and 1 select drop down and 7 input textbox per table in JavaScript.
I need help with printing the whole form with currently filled values.I tried window.print() but it only prints which is visible on the screen. It doesn’t print the bottom section which you have to scroll down to view.
I also tried the following code as well but it prints radio buttons, checkboxes and select drop down with default value, not with the values currently selected or checked.
function CallPrint() { var answer = confirm("Do You Want to Print The Case?") if (answer)
I've got a form that automatically fills in fields based of an employee name. What happens is, the admin start to type the Emps name, a autocomplete shows up, and once the select the employees name, the form is filled in with their DB data. Now in FF, this works perfectly, but in IE6 and IE7, it acts differently. When i use the split command in JS, FF interprets 'null' vars but it seems IE does not. So if a field is null, IE will populate that field with the next available data.
