Form Field Not Clearing Out After Submitting?

Mar 30, 2011

I installed a JS form dependency script. Basically if a checkbox is checked Field A will disappear and Field B will take its place.The script appears to work fine. The problem I am having is this. If someone submits the form using the Field B entry and then they need to submit a form using the Field A entry, the Field B entry is still being passed even though is it is not displayed and Field A has a value in it!So I guess my question is, how do I flush out the form field after the form is submitted? This is just happening with the fields where there is the JS Form Dependency script involved.

Clearing A Form Field Once

Apr 9, 2001

I have a page with multiple text fields, each of which has an example for an initial value. I've added the appropriate code so that onFocus() the example is cleared away, and a blank field is left behind. Trouble is, I only want that to happen once, so that the field isn't cleared if the user attempts to edit what they wrote earlier. Anybody know of a way to do that with only a few lines of code? Here's my existing code:


Code:
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function clearField(fieldName) {
fieldName.value = "";
}
// -->
</script>

<p>Person's Name: <input type="text" name="name" size="30"
value="John Smith" tabindex="2" onFocus="clearField(this)"></p>

JQuery :: Form Field Clearing Script?

Apr 4, 2010

I have the following code that I'm using to cycle through each element in a form field, and clear whatever text is in it. If the user clicks out of the field without typing anything then the script is supposed to return to whatever value it started with (e.g. "Enter your name..."). If the user does type something, then it stays in the field even when they click out of it:

JQuery :: Get Form File Field Binary Contents Without Submitting?

Sep 19, 2010

I'm using a form on a page as a vessel for data, rather than to actually submit it. The reason is that the form is submitted to a service at www.rdbhost.com with it's special JS API, so I extract the data from the form manually and then feed the data to the methods from the provided library.

One of the field is a file. Calling ``.val()`` on it simply gives me the file name, but I need the contents.I've looked around, and found a few plugins that would actually send the file, but that's not what I want.

JQuery :: Detecting Field Value On Page Load And Clearing Field Label

Oct 14, 2010

I'm having trouble detecting if there is value in a field when the page loads and manipulating the fields label class accordingly. Below is my code. I'm using it to display the field label inline with the field, and when the user starts typing, the label is hidden. The problem I'm having is, since this is for a login screen, if the user has typed in an incorrect password, the username still remains entered when the page reloads and I see my label stacked underneath.

How can I detect if that field has a value and apply a class to the label to hide it? I don't have to have to specify each field by their ID, because I'd like to use this all over (member profile management area).

Prevent "Enter" On A Text Field From Submitting A Form.

Jul 23, 2005

Is there a way to prevent a form submitting when you press enter on a text
field? Some people press enter when they finish typing in a text field out
of habit I guess unconcsciously thinking it will take them to the next
field. Instead it submits the form and this causes all kinds of problems in
my case. Any javascript solution?

Reselecting A Text Field To Edit Without Clearing Current Value?

Jan 6, 2011

I'm currently designing a form with client-side validation using javascript. I've set the input property to display as the value (for example, "your name" inside the name field) and I've set the javascript to clear value using name.focus but everytime I reselect the field to edit the value, it clears again, so I'm trying to make it so that on the 2nd time it get's selected, the nameClear funtion doesn't run.Here's what I've got so far, but it's not working. For some reason, the else statement within the function that runs on .focus is showing as invalid in my debugger, but it looks fine to me.

name.focus(function() {
if(name.val("Your name"))
name.val("");

Clearing Form Fields

Sep 6, 2007

I have a page with 5 sets of form fields. Each field set has a checkbox that if checked will allow users to utilize it. I want to clear the given field set when the user un-checks the check box. As you can see in the code below this method will make for a very long and cluncky script, I would like to make it more generic.

<script>
function clear() {
window.document.roles.foo1.checked = ''
window.document.roles.foo2.checked = ''
}
</script>
<input class="checkBox" />
<input checked name="foo1" type="checkbox" class="checkBox" />
<input checked name="foo2" type="checkbox" class="checkBox" />

Clearing Default Form Values On Submit

Oct 8, 2010

I've read a few solutions to this, but none seem to fit what I'd like to do. I'm quite new to JavaScript, so I'm trying to learn various solutions to problems and also what can and can't be done.

What I'd like to know is can you, on submit, check all the form values on a page, or indeed within a specific form on a page, for their default values, and if any still have their default values as the text within that box, clear that value.

So using some generic form values as an example, if I had a form that had three text fields Name, Email, and Phone, all by default populated by their respective names, if someone changed the value of Name to "Adenv" but left the other two, on submit the script would change the values to:

With *blank* indicating a blank field. Is this possible?

JQuery :: Submit Form - Clearing Text Fields

Jul 24, 2010

I am using jQuery AJAX to submit a form. When the data has been validated successfully and processed, I want to clear the form, but I am unsure how. I have been trying to make it work for a few hours now.

I am showing status messages in the container below:

When everything was successful, it looks like this:

And here is the simple code I use to clear the text fields:

What I need is a way to check if everything was successful and if so, then run the code above. I tried to do it in a few ways, but it kept clearing regardless of the status.

Two JS Questions In One: Giving Focus, And Clearing Form (read Inside)

Jul 23, 2005

Okay, how do I write a page with a form so that when I click Submit,
the following happens?

1. The data is submitted (of course)
2. The form is cleared (what I've tried results in the form being
cleared first, resulting in an empty submission), and
3. The cursor goes back to the start of the form, ready for more input
(kind of like how Google puts the cursor in the search box at the
start).

I can't seem to find the answer, and I've been looking on the net for a
few hours already.

JQuery :: Reset Form Not Clearing Validation Error Messages

Jul 4, 2010

I'm using the form validation and it's working great. But the form reset button, although it clears the form fields, does not clear the errors. My page header has this code so far:

[Code]....

I'm trying to understand how to implement the following in order for the reset button to do that:

var validator = $("#myform").validate();
validator.resetForm();

I'm not an experienced JS person but have a lot of other programming experience (vb, vba, mssql, delphi).

CSS And Form Validation - Changing The Font Color Of Labels ONLY When Stop The Form From Submitting Due To Blank Fields

Nov 2, 2011

I'm having trouble changing the font color of my labels ONLY when I stop the form from submitting due to blank fields. I'm not sure whether if just changing my CSS will achieve what I want, or am I going to have to add somethig to my if else statement, or both? I would think I would need to change CSS to :

label.onfocus {
color:red;
}

but a little confused on what else.

JQuery :: Accessing Value In Ajax Form Without Submitting The Form?

Jun 2, 2009

I have a form. Upon submit, the data is sent to the server. Under certain conditions, the form is replaced via ajax with a set of radio buttons that offer the user a a choice.I need to access the radio buttons before I submit the form again.Normally I could just access the buttons with getelementbyid but it is not available, presumably because they were generated via ajax.I could submit the form just to access the radio buttons and then submit it again, but I'd like to avoid that.

Submitting Form From Another Frame Does Not Run Onsubmit Of That Form

Jul 20, 2005

I have two frames. Frame "search" contains a search form specifying
an onsubmit action like so:

<form ...
...
</form>

The other frame contains a <img ... where
the perform_search function is defined as follows:

<script language="JavaScript">
function perform_search() {
var frame = parent.frames.search;
var form = frame.document.forms.mainForm;
form.submit();
}
</script>

Now, when hitting Return in the search form, then foo() is called
fine. But when clicking on the <img ...
in the other frame, foo() is NOT called.

Is expclicitly calling foo() from perform_search() the only way to do
it, or is there a magic incantation that might do what I want?

Submitting A Form Through Another Frame

Jul 23, 2005

I'm supporting an ASP legacy application and need to implement
"autosave" functionality. I have two frames, one that holds tabs
displaying different pages a user can select, and the other that holds
the page content itself. If a user clicks on another tab without
clicking the Submit button, I want to submit the current form for them
and do some further processing.

The problem is that top.framename.formname.submit() only works
sporadically. Sometimes the document object of the page frame does not
exist. Is there any way to "guarantee" that the document object will
exist? Has anyone ever encountered this problem or have any suggestions?
