Dynamic Input Field Generation

Jul 20, 2005

I'd like some help trying to generate input fields on the fly. What I
have on an HTML page is a single text input field labelled #1, e.g. #1
<input type="text">. Next to the field is a button that, on click, I'd
like to automatically generate a second text input field below the
first, labelled #2. Everytime the button is clicked, another field is
created with an incremented label.

I explored iframes, but these text fields will be part of a larger
form that has to be passed together. I'd rather not use hidden text
fields because I don't want to hardcode a limit to the number of
fields available. Please point me in the right direction, or let me
know if this isn't possible.

JQuery :: Dynamic Form Field Generation?

Mar 14, 2011

What I'm trying to do here is to create an editing form based upon the field descriptions extracted from a database, and use jQuery (e.g., datepicker) to handle the input. So, using the datepicker example, I create an input item, make it a 'text' type, give it a name and an id, and then use $('#'+textfld.id).datepicker({ ... }) to set it up. This is NOT done at $document.ready time, but while running the form's JavaScript, so I don't know if that's the problem or not; I can't see how to use $document.ready here due to the dynamic nature of each field.

AFAICT, what should happen here is that a jQuery datepicker should be created and associated with the text field - but nothing at all is happening.

Dynamic Form Field Generation From <select>?

Mar 21, 2005

I have a form with a number of <select> fields, some of which require additional fields to be displayed/enabled depending on which <option> is chosen. For example, in the following code, I'd like a <textarea> field to be displayed if users choose the 'Other' option:

<label for="venue_type"><p>What type of venue do you require?</p></label>
<select name="venue_type" id="venue_type">
<option value="null">--Please choose--</option>
<option value="Meeting/Training/Seminar room">Meeting / training / seminar room</option>
<option value="Computer Suite">Computer Suite</option>
<option value="Examination room">Examination room</option>
<option value="Lecture theatre / auditorium">Lecture theatre / auditorium</option>
<option value="Other">Other type of venue</option>
</select>

I'm guessing that it's possible to do this using onchange, but am not too great with Javascript .

Dynamic Form Generation Fails

Jul 20, 2005

I am using ASP to dynamically generate a series of forms. When the
page is loaded, everything appears to be correct, except that the
first form generated fails with a "FormName is Null or not an Object"
error. Each subsuquent form created by the code after that works
perfectly. Why is it that the first form, generated with exactly the
same block of code, fails? Code:

Dynamic Page Generation For A Link?

Dec 17, 2010

I have to do a project, the requirements i have got are, same link on multiple pages should lead to a single page on client's site, but the page should be different for each link clicked.

What i understand from this is, we will send parameters with each link to a JS or php file and then generate a dynamic page each time, but i am not clear how many files we need to call and what will be the sequence. I want to implement this in JS and php.

how to implement it with JS and PHP if we send parameters with the url and if we don't send any parameters.

CBE/ X Menus, Performance, Dynamic Generation

Nov 18, 2003

I've been working on a redesign of our site at ExperiencePlus for some time now, and long ago chose CBE menu 9 over the other menu technologies out there because of its browser independance. Problem is, as you can see, we have a pretty large site; load-times for the menus and associated scripts are approaching prohibitive. So I'm trying to speed things up.

You can see the results of some simplification here - still about the same speed by my guesstimates.

So, my question is twofold, I guess. First, Mike, do you have any ideas about how long it will take X menu 4 to reach maturity? No pressure ;^) If it were ready now, I'd just drop CBE in favor of X.

Second question: How much performance improvement can I expect from removing unnecessary code (sliding, for example) from the CBE core files? I haven't played with that stuff at all, except to read it now & then when looking for solutions to problems. Does anyone have a similarly large implementation of CBE menu9 that runs faster, so that perhaps they could share their experience?

One final thing: I'm planning to eventually shove all this into a PHP document that will auto-generate chunks of the menu from database queries, especially around the tour & country listings and our "Resource Room." (X menu 4 looks like it would be vastly superior for that purpose, since it's so lean.) I'm interested in hearing from anybody who's tried to do something like this, whether they succeeded or not.

Dynamic File Upload Input Field?

Feb 17, 2010

this is a code I recently found that enables dynamic creation of a file upload field within a form using javascript. I am new to all of this and have some previous actionscript 3.0 experience. Is there an IF statement that I can place inside the 'addLoadEvent' function that can limit the amount of fields created?

Code:
function fileFields() {
var x = document.getElementById('imageUpload');

JQuery :: Dynamic Link Generation - Convert Words With A Certain Class Attribute Into Wikipedia Links

Jun 9, 2009

There's a feature I want to implement, but don't really know how to code. The intention is to use jQuery to convert words with a certain class attribute into Wikipedia links.

An example to make things clearer:

PLAIN TEXT: There is a <span class="wiki">penguin</span> there.

EXPECTED RESULT: There is a <a href [url] there.

Hence the code would have to grab the string of words inside the tag and place them inside a href with the first part of the link already attached to it. Doesn't seem too complicated, but I wasn't able to do it.

I have been trying to use the code below (created by Patrick Haney and improved by enraged) as a basis, but no deal. This code subistitutes words for code, but it searches for specific words.

If anybody knows a script like that, modify the code below,

JQuery :: Two Input Fields / Give Second Input Field Always Same Value As Input Field One

Jun 7, 2010

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.

Get Input Field Attributes Type And Tagname By Field ID?

Aug 5, 2009

So I have to ask some stupid questions and make sure that there is not something wrong in this simple syntax. I am trying to get input field attributes type and tagname by field ID. Heres the code..

Code JavaScript:
var type = $('#' + input_id).attr('type');
var tag = $('#' + input_id).attr('tagName');

When I look in firebug I see there is the correct ID in input_id variable and that the input field with that id exists. But for tag and type variables I just get 'undefined' for reason unknown.. syntax is correct or?

Enhancing Input Field - Put The Selected Recipient Into The Encasing And Insert It In The "To" Field Box?

Jan 9, 2009

I'm trying to replicate a feature found in hotmail, facebook, etc. When you type or select a recipient from an auto-suggest box for your message/email that recipient's name is put into the "To" field box and is encased (usually a blue rounded corner box) with a X to the far right. If the "X" is clicked the recipient is removed.

How can do you put the selected recipient into the encasing and insert it in the "To" field box? If there are multiple recipients how are they differentiated? For example, if there were a ";" between the recipients the semi-colon would separate the values.

Random Number Generation Different For IEs?

May 10, 2009

All the numbers should match. It's not working right in any version of IE I test it in (6, 7 and 8). I'm also using jQuery, fyi.When you click the button to stop the numbers, I'm setting a variable named winner to a number (3, 4 or 5). Right now, I have it set to 5. This number determines how many of the slots match:[code]I'm then generating a random number (0-8) to base all the other numbers off of . Three numbers will always match, so I'm setting two more variables to match that random number.[code]Then I do some conditionals to check the value of winner. If it's 4, I set the 4th number to random number, then generate a random number for the 5th spot while it doesn't equal randomnum. I do something similar if winner is set to 5.[code]The goto trigger sends the scroll to the specified index according to slotnum(1-5).I'm waiting to hear back from the plugin developer to see if it's something to do with that.However, I just want to make sure my logic in generating those numbers is sound. It works perfectly in FF, Opera and Chrome but (surprise!) not in any of the IEs (tested in 6, 7 and 8).

Content Generation Without Page Refreshing?

Aug 19, 2009

I am teaching myself javascript and in the course of my experimentation have run into this roadblock: I want to display a styled navigation bar with a button beneath it. When the button is clicked, an onclick event will be triggered and the response of the browser should be to print the word "test" right beneath the button. However, what actually happens is the page blanks out and the word 'test' appears in the upper left corner of the screen.

Calculating Dynamic Field Names

Jun 20, 2005

I have several fields being updated for a parking structure... The client inputs the number of cars and can immediately see the percentage before updating the database....

The field names always change so I need the JavaScript to be able to pick up the unique field names calculate and place into the total field box...

I found this code online, but I need to do this dynamically for hundreds of lots...

So basically I have a field name and an ID number identifying the 3 related fields...

Here's an example that works for one lot:

<HEAD>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!-- Begin
function startCalc(){
interval = setInterval("calc()",1);

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.
