Getting A Substring From An Input Field And Then Submit It
Jul 19, 2011
I am trying to take a form input field and take what was entered and grab the first 8 character of what was entered and then submit that to a form instead of what was entered.
I've been trying to figure out with a search box I've added how it can submit by pressing the 'enter' key rather than just clicking a 'submit' button beside a form. I've tried onkeypress but as soon as you press one button the field submits. I've also seen you can do with keycode==13 but I'm not sure how to add it into my code.
I'm trying to get the value of an input box after a delete key has been pressed at a certain position. For example: If I have: afghanistan and my caret is at position 4 and I push delete I will be left with: afghnistan I'm able to determine the caret position and detect the delete key and then I am trying to use slice to return the new value of the string like: Code: value.slice(caretPosition,caretPosition+1) This returns the value of what was sliced out of the string - how can I modify the parameters of slice to return everything BUT the removed part?
I got an unusual request form a client. I got a form and I have to get values from certain input fields and assign them as a value to a hidden field and then submit it through php.I'm using mootools (1.11). I was tinkering around that for a day and wasn't able to solve it. Here is the html:
Code: <div> <label for="primary_domain0">Primary Domain Name <span class="req">*</span></label>
I'd like to create a quick and dirty validation method for a form. It's not meant to be very secure.
The way I picture it working is this - there is an input field that asks for a password. If the user types in the password correctly, the "submit" div tag will change from "none" to "block". , which will display the submit button. I just am not familiar with JS enough to know if that's possible.
I am having a form with two input fields. I want to enter some text in the first input field and then the second field should get the same text. Is there a simple way (maybe a plugin) to do this with jQuery? It would be perfect if I even could output all these input fields values as normal text in <p> or <li> tags.
I am trying to make some dynamic effect to a HTML page using JQuery.<br/> 1.<br/> When the user clicks a Radio field, the field will be highlighted.<br/> 2.<br/> When the user clicks the Radio 'Man', <br/>a Input text box will be provided immeditely just below it.
Here is my simple HTML page, but I don't know how to do with the JQuery part:
So I have to ask some stupid questions and make sure that there is not something wrong in this simple syntax. I am trying to get input field attributes type and tagname by field ID. Heres the code..
Code JavaScript: var type = $('#' + input_id).attr('type'); var tag = $('#' + input_id).attr('tagName');
When I look in firebug I see there is the correct ID in input_id variable and that the input field with that id exists. But for tag and type variables I just get 'undefined' for reason unknown.. syntax is correct or?
I'm trying to replicate a feature found in hotmail, facebook, etc. When you type or select a recipient from an auto-suggest box for your message/email that recipient's name is put into the "To" field box and is encased (usually a blue rounded corner box) with a X to the far right. If the "X" is clicked the recipient is removed.
How can do you put the selected recipient into the encasing and insert it in the "To" field box? If there are multiple recipients how are they differentiated? For example, if there were a ";" between the recipients the semi-colon would separate the values.
I have a problem created by my complete [rookie] status – only second time venturing into jQuery. I created a simple shopping cart using php and the PayPal buttons (1: buy now, 2: add to cart). The php back end does it great, it generates the table and the buttons and everything works just like it’s supposed to; Except, I forgot to add sizes. So I found out what I need to add, and I realize that the way the buttons work, I will have two different text boxes for size. Not very visually appealing, and since I’m not submitting this to the server before it goes to PayPal to pay, I cannot modify it with php the way I normally would. jQuery / javascript are my only hope of making this work. What I want to do:Have a single textbox where [size] is entered by the user.
Copy the value from the [correct] text box to the Value=”” section of the now hidden field in the PayPal form That way, no matter whether they [BUY NOW] or [ADD to CART] the right size is submitted to the PayPal shopping cart. This is the actual PayPal code that I’m trying to change
I got this far, and then decided to find how to insert the "enteredVALUE" into the right place in the input text field (what I called output) and I've not been able to figure out how to stuff it in there.
If I have the following variable which contains the drop down menu for list of card numebrs:
var abc='<option value="1234567890123456">1234567890123456</option><option value="0987654321987654">0987654321987654</option><option value="0147852369014785">0147852369014785</option>'
How can I pass this variable to a function and mask only the dispalyed card number? i.e. to have the following result:
Note: the number of options in the drop down menu may varry, in this example its only 3 options, it might be more or less, this is why I called it "Smart Substring".
I have URLs as follows. [URL] I need a function which can retrieve substring from the above URLs. The substring should be upto the 2nd occurence of '/' as follows. [URL]
On an HTML page with 2x different forms, how can I redisplay the same page after a submit, restoring the values from BOTH forms even though only one was submitted?
I have an existing PHP program that I am modifying, and need to redisplay the same page after a submit (the button that submits is a "change shipping" button, that allows the user to continue with the rest of the page). The problem is that there are TWO forms - the one that allows you to change shipping, and the other where the user can fill in the billing address. Making this into one form is not really an option, due to how the program is set up.
Since they are 2 different forms, submitting the "change shipping" form does NOT bring the billing address fields to my PHP code in the POST. This makes restore difficult.
I have a couple of kludgy ideas on how to work around this (mostly javascript based - e.g. setting hidden fields in the "change shipping" form when the user is changing the billing fields). However, I was wondering if there were any other easy solution to acheive this.
a user types in his email, and clicks submit he is then taken to the thank you page. he clicks back and his email is still there.
I want the email not to be there. I can change the value of the text field onload but this doesnt work when you click back only when the page is reloaded. i can change the value on submit but this is wrong because then the wrong value is submitted.
