I got two textareas. I push a form button and some text fills both textareas, lets say "x" for area one and "y" for area two. I then disable the first textarea with a another button so that when I push the fill button again, only textarea two gets updated. To do that I use this:
document.myform.mytextarea.disabled=true;
It works on Firefox, Opera, IE8, but not on IE7. With IE7 both textareas change content, in does not matter that I disabled the first one. I get the same problem if I use:
I have a dynamic page of which I don't know how many forms will be on it, neither which and how many elements will be in each form.
I use the following java script to disable all elements from all forms:
var numberForms = document.forms.length; var formIndex; for (formIndex=0; formIndex<numberForms; formIndex++) { for(x=0;x<document.forms[formIndex].length;x++) { document.forms[formIndex].elements[x].disabled=true } }
Now I want this to stay the same, except when an element is a <textarea>. So basically: script must have the same functionallity (disable all form elements), but not if the element is a textarea (then it would remain enabled).
Is there a way to read out this <textarea> value in script ?
Simple question. How can I disable a textarea when a page is loaded(and re-enable it on a button click). I have tried several things with no luck. What I have tried is at the bottom. Here is mycode snippets: Code to generate the text area <%=Html.TextAreaFor(Function(model) model.NewestComment.Comment, 2, 60, New With {.id = "comment"})%> JQuery Code I have tried to disable it.... <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function() { $( "NewestComment.Comment").attr("disabled", "disabled"); I also tried.... $( "comment").attr("disabled", "disabled"); Neither of which worked.
How would i change back to the default length of textarea?
I have this comment area that after clicking submit i will append the new comment in the list of comments through ajax... i got one problem though, everything is working perfectly well except for the textarea that won't change back to it's default size...
EXAMPLE:
The problem is that the textareawon't change back to it's default size // let's say that the default size is rows=3
I've got this little 'textarea' script..see the code below. Now there is something strange with it. When I disable javascript from within IE 6.0, it still seems to function well... how come ?
Also I would like to build in one thing extra.. Whenever one of the buttons B or C is pressed there is a tag placed within the textarea, like it should. However I don't want the tags to be counted up to the textcount total. What do I need to adjust in the code to achieve that ? Code:
how to make a DIV into a textarea. I've noticed that Facebook does this and so does a lot of Google's stuff. Just looking to see how they pull that off.
really need some help with validating a textarea box. basically i have a text area box that must not have more the 910 characters entered and they must not be spread over more than 23 lines. I could check the total length but the problem is people could enter 1 character per line so you would end up with 910 lines.
Is there a way to detect which textarea the cursor is positioned in? I would not want to attach 'onkeypress' to all textareas to detect which one I am presently in ... or is this the only option?
I need to create a page that allows users to copy the contents of a MS Word document and paste them into a textarea. All fine and dandy...but the tabs. I don't need to keep the formatting, just the tabs. Is there any way to detect the tabs and change them to four spaces or something similar? If you have any other ideas please let me know.
I'm using a third party libray and I can drag a diveand resize it. The issue is, I have a textarea inside of it and I need to resize the width of textarea and height of textarea along with it.
I know what the width and height of the div will be when it finishes dragging (in "px"), so how do I convert the width and height in "px" to the cols and rows of a textarea?
I have a variable, divs, which contains the DIV's and divs[x] contains the actual DIV I need.
What is the best (or most robust) way to access the inner textarea - because I want to add some text to the textarea field. I know how to add the text but want to know best way to access the textarea.
I have used a textarea to display typewriter effect text. The scrollbars are displayed by default. What is the code to disable the scrollbars in a textarea form field? < scrolling="no"> does not seem to work.
I have a button next to a textarea when they click that button it launchs another window. Now I need another button that will take a value (it will be an html code) close that window, and put that value in the textarea.
Sort of like how when you click the link button in this wysiwyg editor it pops up a window that asks for some stuff and then inserts it here.
I'm using this to write html tag in me textarea. Now i'm wondering what code do i need to use so that text cursor stays in textarea after i click on the button so that i don't have to click back to textarea every time i press button. Code:
Quick script I threw together a while back. Mimics the AutoCorrect behaviour of MS Word. The list of corrections was exported from MS Word via some obscure macro that I have since lost.
Has worked in all browsers I've tested with save Netscape Navigator.
I'm trying to write a script that checks for when the enter button is pressed in a textarea and then appends a <br />. I have this:
function appendBreak (field, event) { var keyCode = event.keyCode ? event.keyCode : event.which ? event.which : event.charCode; if (keyCode == 13) { document.formName.inputName.value = document.formName.inputName.value + '<br />' alert('Captured Enter Key'); } else return true; }
And in the particular element that i want to call this function I have this attribute. onkeypress="return appendBreak(this, event) This code will work on regular text type inputs (i.e. <input type="text"....>). But I was having trouble identifying the value of a textarea.
This is what I currently have:function appendBreak (field, event) { var keyCode = event.keyCode ? event.keyCode : event.which ? event.which : event.charCode; if (keyCode == 13) { //this.value = this.value + '<br />' alert('whats up?');
It shows that what I am calling is undefined. But it does append the <br /> after the undefined. So if I could just locate the <textarea> value then I'd be okay.
I'm having some issues with getting the value of a textarea which I fetch with jquery's ajax function.I'm displaying some comments in my ajaxcontent. All the comments have a onClick quoting link which is supposed to send the id of the textarea which is to be quoted.
