I have a form where a user can upload a file. I do a check to see if it's a zip file. If it isn't then its supposed to stop the file from being uploaded. Only thing is, the file still uploads regardless of getting the error or not.
How can I prevent the form from submitting the file if the error pops up?[code]...
I'm using the following javascript code to validate a form:
My HTML code is as follow:
The fact that my using xhtml strict I'm having an error when validating my html file. Can't use name attribute in form.
I'm using the jQuery form validation plugin along with the fileinput plugin which hides the initial input area, but uses <divs> and some styling /javascript to show the file input field.The issue I am having, is that the 'this field is required' text that is meant to show on submission, doesn't come up for the file input field, nor some checkboxes that I have in a table. I am guessing that this is because the code is needing the label to be RIGHT next to the element (in this case the file input or the checkbox) in order for the validation message to show..Are there any work arounds that anyone knows of so that I can get the error message to show?Is there a way to show the error message for required fields when they have a div wrapping them or anything wrapping them?

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:

The user needs to upload files, but the number of files they need to upload is variable.
I've got something like this:
function another_file() {
document.getElementById('files').innerHTML += '<input type="file" class="fileinput" name="pictures[]" />'
}
But everytime I click on the link that calls that function, it erases the previous input's state. I'm after something like GMail's attachments interface.
I'm developing a framework that allow all navigation in normal mode or in ajax load.
I have a form to upload images and I can upload files correctly, but if I use the ajax form, the save page don't receive the HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH in $_SERVER PHP array (only occours when a file is uploaded).
How can I detect an ajax load with a file upload form?
Script works on the first attachment but not the other two?
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"><!--
function ExtensionsOkay() {
var extension = new Array();
var fieldvalue = new Array();
fieldvalue[0] = document.customApp.attachment_1.value;
fieldvalue[1] = document.customApp.attachment_2.value;
fieldvalue[2] = document.customApp.attachment_3.value;
extension[0] = ".doc";
extension[1] = ".docx";
extension[2] = ".txt";
extension[3] = ".pdf";
// No other customization needed.
for(var f = 0; f < fieldvalue.length; f++) {
var thisext = fieldvalue[f].substr(fieldvalue[f].lastIndexOf('.'));
for(var i = 0; i < extension.length; i++) {
if(thisext == extension[i]) { return true; }}
alert("Your upload field " + f + " contains an unapproved file name.");
return false;
}}
//--></script>
With my current javascipt code I have successfully implemented jQuery Form Plugin with my own page. It hooks forms and submits them, and upon either failure or success the proper function is fired (success and error options of ajaxForm) and the XML is handled.
However, whenever I add a <input type="file"> my code fails to determine wether or not an error occured, since the HTTP code of the request seems to be set to 0, and thereby somehow being treated as "success" event, which it clearly isn't, as the PHP returning the XML sends a HTTP 400. (Firebug confirms this.)
Simply put, why does the file upload cause a 100% "success"-rate with HTTP status 0 where it shouldn't, and how could I work around this if required?

I'm using Firefox with the Firebug add-on and whenever I load my test page with the contact form, I receive this error message in Firebug:
$(form).getElementsByTagName is not a function
getElements([])prototype.js (line 1799)
initialize("contact_form", Object immediate=true)validation.js (line 88)
create()
I've got this to work before on other sites, but for some reason it's not working on this site and I just don't know why and I don't understand what the error is telling me.
I'm using the validation plugin and tries to get the invalid errors to appear like I want to. If the form isn't valid, I would like to change the invalid elements placeholder text to a different color. That's it. I don't want to show any message somewhere. Is this possible? How?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm currently learning many web programming languages and figured this would be a good way to learn more and do things better. I have been working on a contact form for my website. I had originally did the error checking in PHP, but I would like to change it to JaveScript since this is the preferred way. I have it all semi working,It seems like I have some unnecessary variables and such.. I would like to clean it all up as best as possible.

I have managed to create a very basic form validation script that I can retrospectively add into current forms with the least effort.
As far as the validation goes I am sure that the script is not pretty, but it does work. However, I have failed to manage to get it to return the focus to the first field that errors.
My abortive attempts are not included in the attached script because I have tried and failed with many different attempts that I have confused myself. I would appreciate any advice that could point me in the right direction to place the focus in the first error field found. Code:
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).
What is happening is when I try to submit the form, I receive an error that says I need to input all data in the proper format.
<html><head>
<title>Conference Registration Form</title>
<link href="conf.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script type = "text/javascript">
Calculate total registration fee
Retrieve the value of the selected index property from guests selection lists
Multiply the selected index by 30 and add this to the cost variable
If the first member radio button is checked subtract 25 from the value of the cost variable
Set the value of the total field equal to the value of the cost variable
function calcCost() {
cost = 145 + (guests_quantity * 30);
guests = document.reg.guests;
gindex = guests.selectedIndex;
guests_quantity = guests.options[gindex].value;
if (document.reg.member[0].checked == true) {
cost = cost - 25;
} document.reg.total.value = cost; .....
I have created my second Form to File Web Form but basically I took my First Web Form coding (with the Java Script) and manipulated it so that it suited my needs for my 2nd Form (both are very close to being the same).For some reason, I can't get my Java Script validation to take effect. I was wondering if some one could try to pin point why it isn't functioning properly? Again it could be the most obvious thing, but please bear with me as I learn.Just for a little more clarity, I am going to list the things that I have changed to possibly make it easier to pin point:[code]

I would like to use jquery to validate on the server side to make sure the uploaded image is 400px by 300px.
View 1 Replies View Relatedso I have a html page with the following code included in it:
[Code]....
how would I reference the contents of the text box in a separate Javascript file? I have tried document.form.UserInfo.value and many, many variations and just can't get it to work. I presume it has something to do with the paragraph having the same name?
actually there's no error in the code only that is only made to check for one input field and my form has 3 image upload fields, the original is:
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="action.php" method="post" onSubmit="if(!this.img1.value.match(/.jpg$/i)){alert('Must be JPG file');return false};return val(this)">
<input type="file" name="img1">
</form>
This works great but what modifications should have to be able to check multiple file input fields?
I have this web form that I want to validate only four of the fields (these are just input text fields, one of which is for e-mail). The code is supposed to bring up an alert box when a fields is empty and after the user clicks ok puts the focus on the offending input field. For the e-mail box, it is supposed to also check for correct e-mail address form.
While testing the first field, the alert text box appears, I click ok but the page sends the incomplete form to my processing page and causes and error. Firebug says that "field1 is not defined". Honestly it looks like it is defined to me. Can any of you take a look at the code below and see what I am doing wrong? Only my JS code appears below. I've searched online for possible solutions, but the things I've tried produced similar undefined errors. I admit I need more practice in JavaScript (familiar with JS, not proficient)

I don't understand ..
$("#form-dialog-join").dialog() is a valid function which I copied from Jquery demo. What's wrong with it?
btw, all the jquery library is loaded correctly.
I am developing a web page . For this i am using Javascript embedded in html. In the application ,the user can input data via interfaces in the page which is chosen and read from a master xml file , the chosen data then needs to be stored and saved in a xml file.I have designed the web page in FrontPage.
Now the problem i face is while trying to save the output xml file i get error Permission Denied , error code 0 . This happens when i try to open the page in browser IE 6.0 SP2.I am using DOM parser methods for doing the xml manipulations/savings etc.urprisingly this works in another machine.Also can i use the all of the same javascript code if i want to run it in an IIS. Do i have to do some changes to make it server side javascript code.
I have a form with multiple fieldsets which are visible conditionally. There are three submit buttons "Abandon", "Save" and "Save & Continue". Each button should validate specific controls of the form and submit it. I tried setting "onsubmit: false" and checking for "$('#myForm').valid ()" on click of these buttons., but that validates all controls of the form.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'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?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to validate two forms containing multiple input fields but want just one error message if any of the fields are left blank, the page is required to submit the users details (registration form). Also if any of these fields are left blank i don't want to be able to go to the next page on clicking the submit button
