Disabling Input Fields In Forms
Jan 7, 2007
I am having a very hard time figuring out how to dynamically disable certain fields in a form based upon the user's answer to a <select> element.
So, first I have a <select> element to my form asking the user to choose one of three choices, like so:
<SELECT Name="mortgagetype">
<option value='First'>First</option>
<option value='Second'>Second</option>
<option value='Third'>Third</option>
</SELECT>
The next 6 fields are all input fields:
<INPUT Type="text" size="30" Name="Question1">
<INPUT Type="text" size="30" Name="Question2">
<INPUT Type="text" size="30" Name="Question3">
<INPUT Type="text" size="30" Name="Question4">
<INPUT Type="text" size="30" Name="Question5">
<INPUT Type="text" size="30" Name="Question6">
The tricky part is that I want the availability of certain fields to depend on the user's answer to the <select> element that comes first. If they answer "First" then questions 1, 2, 3 and 4 should be disabled. If they answer "Second" then questions 3 and 4 should be disabled and if they answer "Third" none of the questions should be disabled.

how to add forms in javascript, but it's limited to text input forms.
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
function updatesum() {
document.form.sum.value = (document.form.sum1.value -0) + (document.form.sum2.value -0);
}
//--></script>
Where the inputs sum1 and sum2 are text fields you put whatever numbers you want in. That works fine. Great. Now what I'm having trouble with is modifying the code so that it will add one form with an input number with a form that spits out a randomly generated number.
<input type="button" value="D20" onclick="this.form.display.value = Math.round (20 * Math.random())" class="buttonHi" /> <input name="display" type="text" size="6" value="" />
This is what I'm using for my random number generator. So basically I want to be able to put, say, 5, into the input text field above this. And then click on the d20 button to get a random number, say, 15, and then have the first code add the inputted 5 with the randomly generated 15.

The purpose of the jQuery code is that when you select an item from the select field that other items need to be disabled(works correct in all conditions) and that at the same time text in corresponding divs' text are altered. The thing is that the script basically works.. however when you've made a selection only the disabling works everytime but the divs are only updated once, so you need to refresh the page if you want to do it again..

I have been looking for the past 2 days for a script that I can add and delete table rows.
I have found a lot but so far all of them add an input field but I desperatly need a textarea or ideally a section of input fields.
I have tried to change the code from input to text area but none of them worked.
Have you come across to a similar script.
I would appreciate any contributions.
What I am trying to do is a page where the user will add their employees details so we can order business cards for them. So I have fileds such as, Name, Tel Num, Email, Cell etc.

I have been looking around on the webs but have not found anything. I can find how to add multiple fields, but what if they reside on different forms on the same page?
For example, here is my code with two forms:
<FORM name="form1">
<b>Size</b><input type="text" size="12" value="" name="size">*
<b>Qty</b><input type="text" size="4" value="" name="qty"
[Code]....
In this example, I want to sum the two fields named "tw1" (the last field on each form) into a text box.

The problem i'm having is that I want to create a drop down selection box, which has an option called other - please specify, that allow the user to enter the text into a text field.
I want the text box to always be visable but greyed out until other is selected from the drop down list.

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()
[code]....
The first form starts like this:
HTML Code:
<form id='form1' name='form1' action="http://www.coolcart.net/shop/coolcart.aspx/starkeepsakes" method='POST'>
The second form starts like this:
HTML Code:
<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
HTML Code:
<input type="submit" name="submit">
Which is NOT how the form is told to post.

I am writing a ASP.NET UserControl and I am trying to incorporate JQuery into this. The control is a simple form with a few input fields (text, checkbox, select, radio). The first element in the form is a checkbox. Upon clicking this checkbox I want the all the input elements in the form (except the checkbox control itself) to be enable/disable. I tried writing some of this code but my solution was not getting me anywhere. Below is the ASP.NET form code.
<
asp:Panel ID="pnlInputControls" runat="server"> <table style="width:100%;">
<tr>

I have a pretty basic set of things I want to do: Capture key press, compare against an allowed list, block keys that are not in that list, replace a space by a dash if entered. As this is happening, I have a span I wanted to be updated with the live values. The username field at [URL] is exactly what I am trying to do, though I have trouble dissecting how they did it. Here is my attempt, which is off by one keypress for some reason.

I am looking for a little help validating a forms input. On the form are key
items which I do not wish to be zero length.
I have wrote the following function:
<script language=javascript>
function ValidateLength(oid, min, max)
{
var txt = document.getElementById(oid);
var length = txt.value.length;
if(length == 0)
{
alert("You must enter your reference, Company Name and Contact Name");
}
}
</script>
However their are still a few issues I would like to work out.
I all it with my forms sumbit event with the following:
<input type="submit" name="Submit" onclick="ValidateLength('txtRef',0,100)"
value="Submit Details">
However that will only check the length of the item txtRef, how can I check
more textbox values? Also how can I stop the form posting if the alert is raised?

I'm trying to fill out a form on this site using JavaScript: [URL]
However, the fields do not have input IDs; they only have span IDs. I've tried using the span IDs, but it doesnsn't work. Here is the code I'm trying to use:
document.getElementById('fn'). value='" FName "';
Where FName is the value I want filled into the field. Could someone please tell me how to use JavaScript to fill in the fields of this form (and check those pesky check boxes)?

I'm trying to write some javascript code that will give a user one of two messages (Correct or incorrect) base on whether they answer a question correctly. I have 2 issues that I was hoping someone could help me with:
1) My "incorrect" and "correct" messages all appear on the page load. Is there anyway to start without them being there?
2) More troubling: No matter what I put into the input boxes, the "incorrect" message pops up. Basically I need to better understand how to grab the actual input value (it's commented down below so I think that this should be a quick fix!)
Code:
function showAnswer(blurred,response)
{
var form = blurred.form;
var rbs = form[blurred.name];

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 trying to add an input element to all forms using appendChild.
The script first searches for input elements with the name of "myinput".
If it finds an input element with that name, it assigns the value "myvalue".
If it can't find an input element with that name, it tries to create a new one for all forms.
What's wrong with my code?

I am having a form with two input fields. I want to enter some text in the first input field and then the second field should get the same text. Is there a simple way (maybe a plugin) to do this with jQuery? It would be perfect if I even could output all these input fields values as normal text in <p> or <li> tags.

I'm wanting to make a search function in a limited way.
The following code sends the input text to a page where the script processes it, no problem
Code:
I would like to have text automatically added to the input.
Example: I have a site I want to be only about things that are red.
Someone inputs "table" and the text "red+table" is sent to the search page.

I should imagine others here have experienced it. The user completes your form, and they unintentionally input their email address incorrectly. Then when you reply to their form, you then get the mailer daemon returning your email! Now, there's a couple of ways that some websites try to solve this problem - some ask the user to input their email address twice, some show the forms results on the next page, so that the user has a last chance to check, before completing the submission. Are there any other ways of trying to ensure that, as much as possible, that the user inputs the correct email address?

I have two forms with identically named arrays on each. I need to copy the values to the second form's array. Here's a simplified version of the HTML:
<form name="mainform">
<input type="text" size="10" name=firstnames[] value="Joe"/>
<input type="text" size="10" name=firstnames[] value="Bob"/>
<input type="text" size="10" name=firstnames[] value="Pat"/>
[Code]....
I'd like to be able to submit hiddenform with the firstnames array equal to ['Joe', 'Bob', 'Pat']. But I seem to be getting an awful lot of ['', '', ''] no matter how I go about it.

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.

I have a form where a user will enter in the number of input fields they need (lets call them offices) and when they click the submit button a jQuery function appends the rows to a plain html table. This works fine, except I do not want the rows to be only vertical or horizontal. I want it to put three input fields on one row before going to the next. Here is the code I have:
//This function is for adding rows to the offices table
function addOfficeRows() {
var i = 0;

I have a form with two input fields - 'name' & 'research'. What I'd like is for 'name' to be cleared when the user clicks in 'research' & visa versa. I've tried to do this by implementing the code in Sitepoint's excellent new DHTML Utopia article, but without success. I'm guessing that I should be using the onblur event, but am not sure how to go: Code:
