Changing An Input Field To A Text Area?

Feb 5, 2010

I work within an application so I can not just code this field as a textarea. I have to work with what the applications renders.

I am trying to use javascript to change an input field to a text area.

I am having trouble just getting started on this. Doesn't anyone know if this is even possible?

Changing A Bit Of Text Via Field Input?

Aug 18, 2009

I'm building a template editor and changing some of the variables.

Part 1.

Only at DEALERNAME. Must present coupon at time of write-up. Cannot be combined with any other offer. 1 coupon per customer per transaction. Expires: 00/00/00.s

I need to be able to fill out two fields to change DEALERNAME and 00/00/00.
I found a way to do this but it required the output to be in a field. I need it the output to look no different than before.


Part 2.

I'm using this to change some text via radio button but I would like an option to select how many details are there is the first place. Say they only want 1 or 2 details and not 3.

Head
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function detail1a(){
document.getElementById("detail1").innerHTML = "Up to 5 Quarts";
}

[Code].....

Changing Opacity Of A Div If The Text Input Field In It Is Active?

Nov 4, 2010

Yeah that was a loooong title. Hopefully it's clear enough :D Right now, my div changes opacity if it's moused over qua the following code:

style="opacity:0.3;filter:alpha(opacity=30)" onmouseover="this.style.opacity=1;this.filters.alpha.opacity=100" onmouseout="this.style.opacity=0.3;this.filters.alpha.opacity=30

but this isn't quite optimal, cause if the user mouses out, it changes back to fade, and the user can't quite see what he's entering. So I would like the div to have opacity=1 when one of the textfields in it is active and opacity=0 when it's not. Is there a way to do that?

JQuery :: Changing The Value Of An Input Field With Val() Is Not Changing The Posted Value?

Feb 2, 2011

I am trying to dynamically clear the value of a form input field and then submit the form.When I used $('#my_field').val('') to clear the field, it was cleared on the screen but when the form was submitted the original value of the input field was posted.My browser is FireFox and I can see using FireBug that when the field is cleared, firebug is still showing the html code with the old value. E.G. <input type="text" value="old_value" />The same situation occurred if I used $('#my_field').attr('value', '') to clear the field.The same situation occurred if I actually changed the value of the field rather than just clearing it.To work around this problem I ended up using the $('#my_field').removeAttr('value') to clear the field before it was submitted.

JQuery :: Use One Input Text Field To Drive Two Hidden Input Text Fields?

Jul 16, 2011

I have a problem created by my complete [rookie] status – only second time venturing into jQuery. I created a simple shopping cart using php and the PayPal buttons (1: buy now, 2: add to cart). The php back end does it great, it generates the table and the buttons and everything works just like it’s supposed to; Except, I forgot to add sizes. So I found out what I need to add, and I realize that the way the buttons work, I will have two different text boxes for size. Not very visually appealing, and since I’m not submitting this to the server before it goes to PayPal to pay, I cannot modify it with php the way I normally would. jQuery / javascript are my only hope of making this work. What I want to do:Have a single textbox where [size] is entered by the user.

Copy the value from the [correct] text box to the Value=”” section of the now hidden field in the PayPal form That way, no matter whether they [BUY NOW] or [ADD to CART] the right size is submitted to the PayPal shopping cart. This is the actual PayPal code that I’m trying to change

<table>
<tr>
<td>
<input type="hidden" name="on1" value="Size" maxlength="200">Size</td>

[code].....

I got this far, and then decided to find how to insert the "enteredVALUE" into the right place in the input text field (what I called output) and I've not been able to figure out how to stuff it in there.

Changing Values Input In A Text Box?

Feb 24, 2009

I'm a beginner with this stuff, so I'm not sure what sort of code I should use.

Basically I want users to put in words and every time "x" letter goes in, I want it to turn into "y" when they hit a button.

I think arrays would be a good way to go, but I'm not quite sure how I'm going to make it translate S:

I'm stumped and can't figure out what to do at this point Code and pictures follow:

Changing The Text Color Of An Input Element (IE)?

Jan 9, 2007

How on earth do you use javacript to change the text color of an input element, and have it work with IE??? I've tried numerous solutions. All of them work on browsers such as Mozilla. But none of them work on IE.

This works in every browser I've tried besides IE:

var whatever = document.createElement( 'input' );
whatever.type = 'text'
// (more code)...
whatever.style.color = 'black'

This also works for other browsers besides IE:

whatever.style.cssText = 'color:black;'

I've tried other things as well. Nothing works in IE. Is there anyway
to change the text color inside an input box dynamically, and have it
work in IE?

Drop Down & Text Input For The Same Field

Oct 3, 2005

My database saves the cars make and model to the row in the database. On the "Add a Job" page, you have to enter the make and model of the car in by hand. I'm looking for a way to have these in a dropdown list, but if the make/model isn't in the list to be able to add it manually.

I can get the makes and models form the database and get them to fill a dropdown list, but then there isn't any provision for entering a make/model manually without going into PHPMyAdmin.

i figured this would probably be best done in JavaScript, but can't find any info on scriptsearch, hotscripts, etc
