Form Input Value Reset To Original On Events?
Nov 6, 2010
I am trying to achieve something that I have seen on many forms throughout the web; I am currently learning JavaScript so please bare with my beginner status. So I have a form and on every input button, I want the value to disappear when clicking on it; and if no text is entered, the original value is returned..
So far I have this inside every input button and i'm beginning to struggle with 'the next step': onfocus="if(this.value=='Email')this.value=''"
Is there a simpler way to achieve this with multiple buttons rather than copying this into every button?

I have a table (not in a form) that has several input text boxes. I want to have a reset button that acts like the form RESET button. I thought I would use the following jQuery method:
Here's my reset button code:
Here's one of my table input lines:
I thought this would be simple, but I can't seem to figure out how to target the text that the user types into an input field before he/she decides to "reset" and start over.
I'm thinking that my problem is that I can't find the correct syntax for my line: $('input.firstname').value('')

I'm using this sortable method: [URL] Works perfect! I have one question though: When a certain action is taken by the user, I want to reset the original order of the <li>s in the list. I can't seem to figure out how to do that.

I have a page which allows editting of records. Question 15 involves one text field and four listboxes. The text field should control the listboxes based upon its own value.
If the text field has the value of "Yes" then the listboxes are active. But should the user type in "No", all listboxes should become disabled. Presently trying to get the first listbox to react to the text box value. Code:

I'm currently creating a simple shoutbox system. The whole shoutbox is in one DIV (shout_box). The DIV shows the 8 latest posts and below that you can enter a new shout / post. I used some script to submit the new post to a PHP page which fetches the data using Post. Then the script displays the message that the post has been added. This works great! However after 5 seconds I want the original DIV contents to reload (the 8 latest posts and the form to add posts. is that possible to do? I think it is, but don't really now where to begin.
I currently got the code below:
var dataString = 'message='+message;
//alert (dataString);return false;
$.ajax({

I have a form with two <button> elements. One button loads the page with the associated form data whilst the other triggers a download. IE6/7 does not handle <button> tags correctly. IE6 will submit all buttons regardless of which you click and uses the button content as the value, instead of the value as the value. IE7 submits just the clicked button, but still submits the content as the value, not the value.
To get around IE's issues with <button> I use JS to manipulate the DOM so hidden input fields are generated with the correct value and the button names are removed so they're not submitted at all.
This works, except in my specific situation for my download button. Because it triggers a download, the page you are on remains, and remains with the manipulated DOM, which means the form doesn't work properly anymore.
I would like to know if there's a trigger of some sort that would allow me to revert the DOM changes when the form is submitted but the page remains. I hope that makes sense. Oh, and there's no need to suggest using <input type="button" /> instead of <button>. That's not a solution.

I've got a form that is enabling/disabling other fields based upon radio selections. I've got it all working, except with the form reset button. My "refresh" routine just iterates through the radio box to check which item is selected based upon e[i].checked state and enables/disables accordingly. Unfortunately it seems the reset event fires before the actual state of e[i] has been reset and my form enabing/disabling gets out of sync.
var btn = document.getElementById('formData');
formValidation.addEvent(btn, 'reset', formValidation.refreshUI, false);
refreshUI: function() {
var e = document.getElementsByTagName('input');
for (var i=0; i<e.length; i++) {
if (e[i].type == 'radio' && e[i].name == 'ipType' && e[i].id == 'ipStatic' && e[i].checked == true) {
document.getElementById('ipHost').disabled = false;
document.getElementById('ipAddress').disabled = false;
document.getElementById('ipMask').disabled = false;
document.getElementById('ipGateway').disabled = false;
break;
}
else if (e[i].type == 'radio' && e[i].name == 'ipType' && e[i].id == 'ipStatic' && e[i].checked == false) {
document.getElementById('ipHost').disabled = false;
document.getElementById('ipAddress').disabled = true;
document.getElementById('ipMask').disabled = true;
document.getElementById('ipGateway').disabled = false;
break;
}
}
}

i have a form in which a hidden field (initial value as Ɔ', and my javascript set it to Ƈ' when an event is trigged). In the same form, i have a reset field. But I realized that the hidden field is not reset to Ɔ' when i push the
reset button. If I simply change the node from
"<input type="hidden" id='IsChanged' value=Ɔ'>"
to
"<input type="text" id='IsChanged' value=Ɔ'>"
Everything is working as expected (the value is reset to Ɔ' when I
push the reset button) Why does this happen?

<INPUT id="File1" style="WIDTH: 530px; HEIGHT: 22px" type="file"
size="70" name="File1" onclick="myFunction;">
Using this code, I'm able to catch the event that occurs when I click
in the "browse" button or in the text input box.
I need to catch another event: when the user has chosen the file in the
dialog and pressed "Open".
I can't us onpropertychange because what I want to do is to check the
name of the chosen file and eventually modify the text area. This would
make a recursive onpropertychange event call... so I need something
else.

how can I make it so whenever I select a different year or different month it doesn't reset the Day option back to option 1 (the option that's called Day), unless of course you select a day then change the month that doesn't contain that day (like if u choose january 31 and then select february, it obviously must reset).
For example, say you choose january and then the day 20. Now if you select february, I do not want it to reset the day back to "Day"
Instead, I want to make it so it stays on the day 20 since there is a 20th of February. But still, I want it to eliminate the options 29, 30 and 31.
Here is a working example of the drop downs http://ckeanedesign.t35.com/dob2.html

I got a list of generated input fields (there is no way to know how many they are) inside a span withh an id.
<span id="whatever">
<input type="text ...
<input type="text ...
<input type="text ...
</span>
I also got a link that hides the content of the span. I need to reset the form fields when the link is clicked, but can't figure out how.

was wondering when you create an input element, i.e.
var someInput = createElement('input');
How do you add an event to an input item?
like a onKeyUp event.

I'm developing a web app in which I have a file upload option. The thing is, my file input is hidden, and instead, a textbox and a button are used, in order to style the input, copy the file input's value and allowing the user write a link address into the textbox (the php upload page recognizes the text in the textbox and takes action if the text is a hyperlink or a file upload).
The problem is, when I submit the form, the php is catching the file input's value as empty. So I removed the hidden property of the file input, in order to check what was wrong, and I noticed the input's value is being reset on form submit. When not hidden it takes me two button clicks to submit the form, being the first one the responsible for cleaning the file input. Though, if I assign it's value directly from the input object, it works perfectly.
Here's the code:

I have a page where I use <DIV> to control the visibility a text input area. The text input is made visible only if the Other radio button is selected. That all works fine.
The problem I'm having is when I press the forms Reset )<input type=reset>) button, the visibility of the text area is not restored to the state it was at when the page first loaded so I end up with the text area being displayed even though the Other radio button in no longer selected (reset did clear it).
I thought I could solve this by using a <FORM onReset="forcehide()"> event handler but I can't figure out how to get the object id of the div. The div is defined as follows: Code:
