I'm trying to achieve something that I originally thought would be very simple, but I can't get it working....and even googling hasn't helped this time! All I want to do is update the innerHTML of a div with the content of a textarea object when a button is clicked. I'm trying to avoid having to post the form using AJAX because the button also replaces the innerHTML of a different div with the value of a text input box. Here is the code I've tried, but it doesn't work:
Code:
function previewContent(intContentId) {
var titleText = document.getElementById('edit_title_' + intContentId);
var titleDiv = document.getElementById('content_title_' + intContentId);
[Code]....
In this example, the titleText var represents the text input box, and the contentText var is the textarea. The titleDiv gets correctly updated with the current value of the input box, but the contentDiv doesn't seem to consider any changes I make within the textarea - it just loads the original content. This seems very strange to me. Is there an easy way to retrieve the value of the textarea?
I am trying to populate a preview div with the content of a textarea. I have 2 textareas on the page. One with ID compose and another with ID profile_signature. Each has its own preview button named respectivly #profile_sig_preview and #msg_preview. however no matter which button is clicked the div is always populated with the content of the first textarea ie profile_signature. I tired setting up 2 divs so the content could be seperated but that did the same thing.
I have a simple how to question and I'm fairly sure the answer is equally simple, however I'm new to web developing and searching the web didn't help me any further either. Maybe the question hasn't been raised because the answer is too obvious?
Anyway: I want to have one classic textarea/textbox with a submit button, such that when some one enters text in this area and hits the submit button, this same text is displayed elsewhere on the page (this may be displayed in a second textarea as long as I can hide its area borders so it looks as if the text gets displayed on the page itself). Preferably, the input text in the first area should be pretty standard, but the displayed content should be larger and in a different font.
I've just found out that a piece of code is not working as expected in certain browsers - but the way in which it goes wrong is not consistent, so maybe it's something wrong with my code.Oddly enough, it works exactly as I was expecting when viewed in IE.Here's the code...
I have just setup jeditable for a text area and this works fine however when I activate / click on the text area to bring up the editor, the content is filled with br tags (example below). How to convert the br tags into tags before it is displayed?
I'm having some issues with getting the value of a textarea which I fetch with jquery's ajax function.I'm displaying some comments in my ajaxcontent. All the comments have a onClick quoting link which is supposed to send the id of the textarea which is to be quoted.
I have web form (not MVC) that has bunch of textarea and textboxes where user can input HTML markup. For example, a textarea is provided so users can put YouTube embed iframe html tag where it will be shown on their profile. The problem is that asp.net 4.0 http request validation doesn't like things like ">" or "<", etc. I can put pagevalidation="false" on the page and/or revert back to .net 2.0 validation but why would I want to do that since I have geniuses like you guys that can show me how to do what I want with jquery without jeopardizing security.
So what I want to do is form a handler so when the form is submitted, the content of the textboxes and textarea on the page be encoded (i.e. > to > etc.) before the submission to the asp.net 4.0 so we can keep the httprequest validation stuff happy. I have added a class "mustEncode" to each of the textarea and textboxes.
I have a form with a textarea that can hold a lot of values. When submitted, a php-script takes over and processes the textarea line by line. When a lot of values is submitted, it can be time-consuming for the php-script, causing the webserver to timeout.
I would like jquery/ajax to send one or a few lines of the textarea to the php-script at a time, hence feeding the php-script with a lot of smaller requests instead of one massive one. Kind of like an upload form with a progress bar, but for textarea values instead of file submition.
I have looked around and failed to find any examples or tutorials on this, and since I'm not very experienced in javascript I would really need it.
So again, the javascript would check the textarea-field when user submits the form, and send one or five values from the field at a time to a remote php-script. In the meantime the user can be presented with a "loading..."-image or a progress bar.
I have created a simple AJAX chat that polls the server every 2 seconds for new messages. The messages are displayed in a div layer, and the user types new messages in a textarea, the only problem is that when a new message appears it takes the focus from the textarea so you have to keep clicking back in the textarea to keep typing. Does anyone know how I can solve this?
I guess the title says it all. I've generated two checkboxes and two textareas via an ajax requst. When I later on call anoter function I want to get the valus from the textareas and to know if weather the checkboxes are checked or not. But that seem impossible to be as you seem not to be able to select an element generated after the page load, or am I wrong ?
I'm using ajax to process a form. But my form has textareas in them. Its not passing the textarea values. Here is my javascript code: $.get( "process_order.php", $("#order").serialize(), function(data){ $('#loader').hide(); if(data) { pTag = "<img src='[URL]' width='200px'><br />Order Saved"; $('#popup').empty(); jQuery("#popup").append(pTag); jQuery("#popup").dialog('open'); } else { pTag = "<img src='[URL]' width='200px'><br />There was an error!<br /><font size='1px'>" + data + "</font>"; $('#popup').empty(); jQuery("#popup").append(pTag); jQuery("#popup").dialog('open'); }}, "html" ); I just have a simple textarea section and I NEED to allow HTML code in that text area.
You have to go open the navigation box on the top left (sorry I have to simplify this in the future!) and then click the third link Compare Two Bible Texts. Once you enter a word in the first textarea and select the book, chapter, and verse it doesn't record it in the textbox underneath the verse dropdown select.
I am currently using an IFrame (in my jsp) to bring up a third party web content(ex.a payment page from [url]). i want the external site to handle all the user actions (within the iframe).
In this case I am unable to capture the errors or exception that the external website throws.
Is there a way to bring up third party web content using Ajax with better error handling mechanism ?
im trying to use ajax to change the content in a div when you click on a nav button (6 buttons in nav)...... I build out side using a Ajax book and it did not work...... deleted the project and im trying to start over.....
It's an about us page but there's a lot of content. My client wants me to break each section up into a different page.
So I've built an 'about us' menu in my sidebar, and I want to pull the applicable content into the content area of the template when a button is clicked without the page re-loading. Ideally the content should be pulled from external files to make updates easier.
I'm sure there's an easy AJAX/JS solution out there, but I'm not sure where to find one.
Code... sometimes instead of replacing the content it's duplicating the returned content (usually happens if it's called to again on the same page.) what can i do to prevent this?
How would i change back to the default length of textarea?
I have this comment area that after clicking submit i will append the new comment in the list of comments through ajax... i got one problem though, everything is working perfectly well except for the textarea that won't change back to it's default size...
EXAMPLE:
The problem is that the textareawon't change back to it's default size // let's say that the default size is rows=3
I load content to div using ajax. In that new loaded content are anchors which make another ajax requests, but they don't work. I suppose that it's caused by $(document).ready();
For example:
Anchor with class '.dokosika' in loaded content doesn't work as I want to...
