Dynamically Add A Populated Text Field To The Form?
Jul 16, 2010
I have a form to add items to a database. In the sidebar next to the form I have a bunch of pre-defined items, I would like to be able to click on one the pre-defined items and have it add a populated text field to the form.
I don't know how hard this is / isn't to do, but I wondered if it is possible to use Javascript / jQuery (I have the library included on the page I need to edit) to display a message below a text input field if the field is populated.
The reason I need it is that if the user fills the field in, I would like to add an instruction message underneath the field. If the field remains empty, I don't want the text to display.
I have a text field, call it income, that when the input is > 0 I need to dynamically show the next text box, and if it is blank hide the next text box. I would like to use onBlur but can't seem to get it to work.
I want to have a page that is a list of auction items, and for each list item, show a field with the current bid price - easy to do statically, but I want the current bid price field to by dynamically updated by javascript every few seconds from a php database query.I have had no trouble building this page, but what happens is that the javascript will do the php query only once and fill the current bid price field continually with the same value, even if it has been changed in the database.I have the javascript function repeating every second, so that is not the issue.My php script works nicely, so that is not the issue.Just to re-iterate, there is no problem passing a value to javascript from a php sql query, it is in trying to get javascript to refresh the value it gets from the php sql query everytime that it runs.I have been working on this for over a year, and have done loads and loads of research, but to no avail.
I'm using PHP / MySQL / javascript (very new to javascript)I'm looking to set the value of a textfield based on the name (NOT value) of a drop-down. The drop-down is created dynamically from a recordset (see code below):
<select name="mainStory" id="mainStory"> <?php do { ?>[code].....
I'm just now trying to get my head around AJAX in general and jQuery's AJAX specifically.I have a table that is generated from php/mysql. A sample of the rendered page can be seen here. I've also attached a text document with the php code that generates the page.What I'm trying to do is, when a user clicks on one of the edit buttons, I want to open a jQuery UI Dialog popup and populate a form with the current information for the class the user clicked on. Then, after the user clicks on a Submit button (and some basic validation), jQuery's ajax() sends the data for processing to a php script. Upon successfully processing the changes to the class I want to close the Dialog popup and show the changes in the table on the main page.[code]
I have a webpage for insurance agents that the agent will login and then enter some insured information.
There is a field named "agentnumber" that is on the form, but is hidden by a display:none. The field is set from the username of the person who logs in whenever the form loads the first time. The form will save automatically when the user leaves the page.
I am experiencing a weird issue that every now and then, the agentnumber field is getting saved with incorrect data. After discussing it with the agent, it is being saved with the agentnumber of the agent from other companies, not from the my website. what may be happening as I thought browser security would prevent cross site javascript. The users are using IE 7 & IE 8.
i have created text fields dynamically by clicking a button now problem is that i want to save the value of these text field into database. i m using java script with PHP's framework codeigniter. the code is as follows

In the IT department that I work at, when we move a computer/install a new one we have to fill out a form with the information on the computer (CPU clock speed, amount of RAM, OS and service pack, etc). I created a web form already where instead of doing it on paper, we can fill it out online and it'll send it via email. My boss now wants me to figure out a way to automatically populate the form with the information the computer should know. I think I can do the IP Address in the ASP we have on there, but I think I need something client side to do the other things. I guess my first question is if this is even possible using javascript?
Have a small problem with a cms whereby when i try to insert default text into an input text field using the "value" attribute it gets deleted. I was thinking to force insert the text in there when the page load with javascript but not sure exactly how...
<p><input name="vericode" id="vericode" value="This text doesn't display!!" type="text" onclick="value=''"/></p>
I am having some issues with a form that has "name" "email" "address" text field the a comment section that has been pre filled with the followingI <name> of <address> blah blah blah blah blah blahblah blah blahblah blah blahblah blah blahSigned<name><address>Now my question is how do i get the form (made in html) pull what the user types in the text field and make it get added to the comment section of the form where the <name> <address> is required.Once filled out it is emailed to me.
I have a text field (field1) already displayed on the HTML page. However, there's a link where you can add additional text fields to the page as well. When the link is clicked, the second text field is added successfully (field2), and when the link is clicked again, the third text field (field3) is added successfully. However, the third field does not add itself to the page, and the text for anything greater than a third field also isn't displayed after. This obviously means that my "fields" variable is not working right
I've been ask to produce a new upload form that can allow multiple files to be uploaded with each article i was thinking of adding an upload form field than when text is added to the text field an extra file name description and upload text box would appear on the page via javascript.
So the more files that add to the form the more dynamically produced form text boxes are added, i have been looking to find if this could be done or what way is better, if anyone could help with telling where to look or how to dynamically produce more text areas. Or could you let me know another solutions to this.
I have seen it work on my mobile when added new contacts, you type in mobile number and then the home text box appears below it, then you type in home number and then the work text box appears. etc..
I am very green in Javascript but I am working on it, I was wondering if this is even possible:
I have a bit of information as just text on a page, what I would like to do is to have the text change according to which form button they select. The trick is that the text information is not in a form, its just in a table.
example:
Here would be blah blah blah
()<-bad impression of a button
once I select that button, the information above it would change to something different.
I have a form and inside the text fields I have a note that indicates: Type here your name...all this instead of having titles for each field. That text is set as initial value and the user has to highlight the text to delete it. What I am wondering is if there is a way to have the text but when the user clicks on the Field the text disappears and there is no need for deleting. I have seen this before but I can recall where.
I'm trying to change the value in a text field to red for the validation. (It's one of those forms with an intial value in the text field which is currently got a style attached to it. If they fail validation, by not having anything in the text field, I would like the initial value to turn red from a style in the style sheet.
Here's a bit of my code for the form: *NOTE=the onblur is to make the intial value dissapear on click in the field. Code:
The javascript below works perfectly using Firefox, but not Opera or IE.I have a button which I would like to clear the text in the input field with.The "onFocus" on the input field works fine in all browsers, but when clicking the "cross.gif"-button, it only works in Firefox.javascript:
I'm trying to get a select box to display text from a database in a div tag from the select box populated by a while loop that also pulls from the database. The only way I can do this is from a javascript written by sending it over to a second page and I need it on just one page. Here is my code below:
Ive got a form with 3 text fields, one for first name, last name and one i dont what the user to be able to write things in(if that cant be done no biggy), when I hit submit, I want to move these two entries (first name and lastname) into uneditable text field so basically just combine the two, and then the user can add more names and it just keeps adding them to the end of the other text field... kinda hard to explain, basically like a chat type thing, where hitting enter just adds more names to the other text field except only you can see it.
I'm working on a web app where a profile is displayed to a user. The profile consists of data pulled from FB and LinkedIn via their respective API's. I'd like to provide the user with the ability to add more detail to the profile. I've scoured the web looking for a way to use Javascript to change an HTML element from a link to a form field but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for.
For example...
Profile:
Education: College Add Major
And when the user clicks the "Add Major" link, it turns into a form field. I'm not much of a front end developer but I'm working alone on this project so I have to wear a few hats.
I have a search interface that I'm building that uses radio buttons, jump menus and a keyword search text box.
Is there a way to have a little "go" button next to the text field that will submit just the search string in the text box to my searchresults.php page?
Right now, any submit button I put within the page submits all parameters from my radio buttons and jump menus in addition to the keyword values. I would like the keyword entry box information only to be used if there are any values in it and have any other variables (e.g. from the radio buttons) to be null so I don't get a search with keywords AND radiobutton values. Of course, if nobody clicks the radiobuttons, no problem, no values are passed, but I'm sure some pesky user will have some checked and then decide to do a keyword search...
I'd rather send the info to the same PHP results page, so I don't want other values to muddle up the keyword results. I'm sure I could erase the other values with an 'if keywords=anything then other variables are null' statement, but I want the user to think they're only submitting the keywords from the entire page (which is what a 'go' button next to the field would imply) and I thought there might be a simple way.
I have a standard HTML form that asks the user for a dollar amount and a payment date. On the same page I want to display some acknowledgement text which displays to the user what they entered above.
For example, lets say the user entered 10.00 as the dollar amount, and 03/01/2011 as the payment date in separate HTML form text fields. Right before the submit button I would like to display to the user "By clicking on the submit button below, I agree to pay $10.00 to Company, Inc. on 03/01/2011".
I'm sure this can be done using jQuery... I'm just having a hard time finding an example.
I have written a form in HTML which contains username,lastname,email,password and submit.I have written a javascript to validate this form [validate(username,lastname,,password)].On submit this javascript function will be called and hence form get validated. I am passing all the arguements(username,lastname,email and password) to the javascript function..Is it possible to make me a code such that it should call an individual function for each field in the form.for ex:if i have not entered username, last name in the form and attempt to submit, only username arguement should be passed to the function as it comes first in the form.In other sense i want to validate individual text field validation of my form.
