Form Validation -- Passing White Space In Descriptor?
Apr 10, 2010
I am trying to adapt the form validation script at [URL] to a site that already has tons of pages with forms. Unfortunately, the forms include selection lists that often have SELECT names with white spaces included, and these do not work when passed as a variable to the frmvalidator function
The site I want to use the script on is being database generated and has something like 25,000 item pages, each with several SELECT list options. The Option variable uploaded to the database looks like:
Code:
"Optional Out Going Mail Slot" "Choose" "None, " "Add Mailslot in Top Left (Item # na) (+$15.00)" "Add Mailslot in Top Right (Item # na) (+$15.00)" "Add Mailslot in Bottom Left (Item # na) (+$15.00)" "Add Mailslot in Bottom Right (Item # na) (+$15.00)"so it would be a serious task to download the database, loop through and replace white-space characters with dashes or underscores on the first element in each option sequence. Is there some way to make names with white spaces work? I could switch to a script that simply checks all selection lists to make sure that option 0 is not selected. But I love all the other features of name, format and combined verification in the above script. Unfortunately, the script relies on the name and validation action of each form element being passed to its function onSubmit.
I am creating a class for all of my code snippets, using a formatted paragraph (and "word-wrap: pre") to keep formayting intact. The problem is that in keeping my HTML files formatted nicely, they are indented, and due to the "pre" formatting the indentation is kept. Code:
Right now when someone clicks on my listbox I immediately do an update on the form to populate the selected item.
Is there a way to detect if a user has clicked on some white area of a list box? If my list is sized 8 items but the list only has 4 items, if the user clicks near the bottom of the list where there is no item to select, can I detect that? Currently I get the form updating even if I click on the white area of the list and I'd like the form to update only if I actually click on an item in the list.
I have a frame that includes a hidden <div> at first (before any action), the problem is that when opening the page, I have a white space, and i can't reduce the size of the frame because the content of the <div> will not appear!
how to hide the white space of the frame without reducing it's size?
With the code I had to acknowledge nothing had been inserted,(that is, still spaces, it was working. When I added the code to only accept alpha chars etc., I inserted numbers, nothing worked, with no error message. Would you, or can I send the whole code through for the form. I noticed that the form tags had been changed so I altered them as well according to your message.
When addClass('choose') to li, there is always a white space right under it. <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "[URl]"> <html xmlns="[URL]"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=gb2312" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="demo_inc/jQuery.js"></script> .....
I'm thinking of putting a pop-up on one of my sites using the following javascript. I only want it to pop-up when a visitor visits every 25 days or so. Can someone tell me where I put the code for that in the below script or point to a script where this is already done? Code:
I am learning JS and ajax.. successfully writing my own working scripts.. but, being a newbie, still hit the wall alot. Today's wall really has me stumped:
Developing locally, I am calling a page with a working XMLHttpRequest object.. and getting the response, fine. The problem is that the response is coming back with some space chars tacked on. There are like 10-12 space chars prefixed, and one space char suffixed to my response text. Even if I just stick in a single "a" char in the (now static) page that I call, it still returns
Ok so the problem is when I mouse over the left nav menu all is great, when I mouse over the newly created DHTML menu in the middle the seperators(black before mouse over of the DHTML menu) disapear on the left nav menu and there is now white space surrounding the buttons on the left nave menu. IF you switch to full screen mode(F11 I think) I can see the actual graphic on the left nav menu changing and that is what is causing this, but I cant find it in the code.
I have narrowed it down to my framework.js script but no idea where it is within this code. I can post that code in here and maybe you can see what I mean and I will attach a screen shot of the problem.
i am using the following regular expression for the validation of Email address /^.+@([?)[a-zA-Z0-9-.]+.([a-zA-Z]{2,3}|[0-9]{1,3})(]?)$/; but the problem is that if user enters any white space character while entering email address then email is considered as valid how ever we know that an email address can not contain any white space character i have tried a lot but could not get a correct regular expression
I am trying to declare a variable inside a function and use it later on in my code... but it just already returns white space... i.e. not variable value. I am setting it within this function:
function show_video1(){ document.getElementById('video1').style.display="block"; var video1Name = "Education World News (Part 1)"; document.getElementById('video2').style.display="none"; document.getElementById('video3').style.display="none"; document.getElementById('video4').style.display="none"; [Code]...
and trying to call it later on with this: <script type="text/javascript">document.write(video1Name)</script> It might be worth noting that each one of my 11 videos will hace a different name.
i m using the following validation code to validate email id
if (!/^w+([.-]?w+)*@w+([.-]?w+)*(.w{2,4})+$/.test(document.getElementById("customer_name").value)) { msg=msg+"Must Enter a valid Login-id/Email "; document.getElementById("customer_name").focus(); }
now i need that if the email id contains white blank space in front of email id or end of email id then this validation should pass otherwise not.
at present if there is blank space in front and end of email id then the validation doesnt passes and gives alert.
what should i add in it to validate it or how can it automatically remove white spaces before validating.
I need a JS validation code for validating numbers such that,Empty space and characters(including + and -) shouldn't be allowed,there should be only one decimal point,spaces and characters between numbers also shouldn't be permitted.
So I created a custom rule following numerous examples out on the web for a dynamic text input, but for some reason it seems to be letting spaces through even though my regexp tests out ok to not match when the value is any combination of spaces...
$.validator.addMethod("noSpace", function(value, element){ return this.optional(element) || /^[a-z0-9][a-z0-9_ ]{0,70}$/i.test(value); }, "Please enter a name starting with either a letter or a digit."); $('#form').validate({ rules: { [Code]...
The odd thing is, it will work if you type in a space followed by a character, but if you type in one space, or one space followed by x number of spaces, it just lets it through like it's valid. But yet when I look at the demos and examples that I pulled this from, they never let those scenarios go through.
I am trying to create a slideshow. My requirements are as follows:
-variable image size -descriptor text for each image -previous and next image function (I have used an image in my code by have decided that I would now prefer a text link)
Here is the code I have so far, currently the image and text is not changing!
I just wonder if this is even possible, I'm not a jquery programmer by any means, but I hope I can use it for the purpose of my project. I know wordpress includes jquery automatically, so I wanted to see if I can take advantage of it
I'm using $("form").serialize(), and then doing an AJAX request.JQuery automatically replaces spaces with the + character.(I couple replace the + character with a space on the server side, butI want the users to be able to enter the + character when they submit forms.)
I have a form with multiple fieldsets which are visible conditionally. There are three submit buttons "Abandon", "Save" and "Save & Continue". Each button should validate specific controls of the form and submit it. I tried setting "onsubmit: false" and checking for "$('#myForm').valid ()" on click of these buttons., but that validates all controls of the form.
I am trying to display validation error messages when form validation fails. Currently it does display the error messages but then disappears straight away. How can I stop the page from refreshing when validation fails? I have return false in my code when validation fails but still having same problem. Currently I have only done the validation for the full name only. The error msg is showed in:
This is in regards to Jrn Zaefferer's plug in.How do you customize input validation so that I can remove foullanguage?So that first name or last name doesn't have "fck you" or something
I'm using the Validation plugin for JQuery and was wondering if there was a function to submit the form without causing it to validate the form. I have a table with a list of radio-buttons and above that is a drop down list of states. The drop down list of states is used to filter the table rows and when the selected item changes it posts-back to the server (via $("#frm").submit()). I don't want this to cause any validation to occur. Is there another function I can call besides submit(), or some other method?
