Handle Dynamic Input Fields In Post Method Using PHP
Oct 18, 2010
I have a dynamic form, when a button is clicked 3 more fields appear, the function is to colect for example from date [02/02/2010] to date [10/02/2010] equals price [250$] per week and if you want another period just click the button and 3 more fields appear. How do I get all this data to PHP?
<script type="text/javascript">
var counter = 3;
function addNew() {
// Get the main Div in which all the other divs will be added
var mainContainer = document.getElementById('mainContainer');
// Create a new div for holding text and button input elements
var newDiv = document.createElement('div');
[Code]...
I spent several hours struggling with dynamic form fields added with appendChild or innerHTML not POSTing on submit in Firefox. The only way I found to make it work is to append any created fields to a DIV within the form. Code:
I am having a form with a drop down and want to display the fields below it based on the drop down value selected.
for example: my form has a drop down <select value> <values: A, B ,C, D)
when I select A then I should get displayed a set of fields ( like input fields, drop down fields etc) just below the main drop down and when I choose B then it should display a set of fields specific to B and like that..

What technology / script to use this to achieve this. I have also attached the sample html page.
For example I have this sort code: for ($i=0;$i<$db;$i++) { $t1="toggleh$i"; echo "<div class='c'>Test<input name='$t1' type='image' id='$t1' src='test.png'/></div> <br>"; } I try to make clear the screen for users, so I use hide & show to hide some row on screen what users actually don't need...
The JS part of code is something like this: $('#toggleh0').click( function() { $('div.showhide').toggle(400); }); $('#toggleh1').click( function() { $('div.showhide').toggle(400); }); $('#toggleh3').click( function() { $('div.showhide').toggle(400); }); . . . I dont know how can do this dynamic. So if "$i=6;" then I need toggle 0-6 function...
I have a set of input fields that can be dynamically duplicated/cloned or removed and submitted. I'm looking for a ways to configure the form for easy processing without having to loop through each input field inside the divs:
I have this sort of image gallery where you can drag and drop images around. CLients should be able to do this in order to determine the order in which images are shown on their website. All images have a unique id and a order number. It is my first time I use jquery, the sortable part was easy to find out but then what happens? I have to find out how to get the 'new order' and how to store it in database. I am using ColdFusion. My idea, either I store the new order each time one moves an image around either I let them move like they want to and ask them to click a button to confirm. The structure of the document is a <ul id=sortable> then each image is <li>.
I started developing a website that for many aspects should be similar to a Flash website but of course only in JS. What a challenge! An important part, of course, should be the managing of the position of the objects and to do so I need at least to be able to get all the properties from them, also if they have dynamic content. The very simple issue I'm stuck at the moment is to get the width of a div that contain a text, to place at its right the next div. I have very different behaviors in IE and Mozilla when I move a DIV. In fact given this structure:
I am having no luck with my post form to mysql. It is only posting the first letter of the word/phrase for the text input fields to the mysql database. It is a photo and text post form. The photo and only first letter of text are posting to database. I am using Jqtouch, jquery, and phonegap.
I have a requirement where i need to take an IPv4 address as an input, my web page has 4 text boxes. If i have a address like this 255.255.255.255, my program jumps into the next text box without any problem as soon as i enter the 3 digits. i dont need to press any tab or any other key to go to next text box.
In case of an address like 12.24.12.3, i have to press <tab> to jump into the next text box, My project requirement says that it should work with '.' (dot) char as well.
SO here is my actual requirement i need to jump into the next text box as soon as user enters a dot (.) char without displaying the dot into the text box.
I have been looking for the past 2 days for a script that I can add and delete table rows.
I have found a lot but so far all of them add an input field but I desperatly need a textarea or ideally a section of input fields.
I have tried to change the code from input to text area but none of them worked.
Have you come across to a similar script.
I would appreciate any contributions.
What I am trying to do is a page where the user will add their employees details so we can order business cards for them. So I have fileds such as, Name, Tel Num, Email, Cell etc.
I have a spot where users can create posts. When you scroll over, a button pops up that says "reply". When you click reply it adds a form to the div that allows you to reply to the post. That all works great. Now I read something a long time ago that say's URL's are limited to 256(?) chars so I'm figuring between the variables and the potential for a long reply, I should be using the POST method on my form. When the user submits the reply, I want to use a jscript to update the div and add the reply but I'm not sure how to use post instead of get for this -- or even if I can.
Here's what I have
1. Create the reply form in the div -- this works great
2. This is the function I'm trying to create to call the php script, update the db then repopulate the div on the page with the post and the new reply. I don't know if I can change "GET" to "POST" or if I should be looking at some diff functions?
If I pass information using method='post' in a form over an https connection with a self signed cert using Opera or Chrome browsers it fails. Firefox works but I need my code to be compatible with other browsers. I'm hoping that someone here has run across this and knows a javascript way to overcome the problem.
alright im making a sortable displays in my website but i am trying to figure out how to pass my javascript array to and external php script through POST method so i can update the column, position, hidden, or closed in the database i am using jQuery Sortable Portlets
Is it possible to use javascript to modify the server post method.
I have a very large website that at the beginning of each website I use PHP to check the post method.[code]...
At the bottom of this page I use javascript to POST a form with the target being an iframe. The action is to allow a user to download a file from my server.
The download file works fine. But when I navigate to another web page I see unwanted text fill up the top of the page. If I refresh the page the text disappears.
I assume this is because I did a POST and then navigated to another page and my pages saw that this was a POST from the above PHP code.
So my question is. Can javascript set the server method to GET instead of POST? So that my PHP does not detect a POST.
I'm trying to use the Ajax $.post method, in Firefox. This same code is working for me in Chrome. The form handler is working, and I can get Firebug to breakpoint on line 12, where the $.post method is called. But, it won't ever enter the callback, so it's not getting a response. I'm not seeing any data hitting my server, either, so I can tell the POST isn't going through.
One thing to mention that seems odd, the form handler doesn't seem to be executing until the timer, defined below the form handler, executes. When I hit Submit, it'll sit there and the breakpoint won't occur until the timer occurs. This seems odd to me.
Can anyone perhaps spot something that I am doing incorrectly, here?
Code is pasted here: [url]
After further inspection, the form handler isn't running on the timer. I removed the timer all together, and the form handler is still extremely slow. It takes 3-5 seconds to hit the $.post function after submitting. Why so slow?
I am having trouble finding a code example that uses javascript to get values from a form submitted on a previous page using the "POST" method. I've found some examples on how to parse the query string, but unfrotunately my form on the previous page has WAY too many charcters being submitted to be able to use the "GET" method (there is some upper limit here, I think it may be 255 or some number similar).
By the way this ONLY needs to work in IE, but it is better if it works in all browsers.
For a very specific project, I need to change the url of the post method for a form depending on the value of a select box.
Code: $('#email').change(function(){ change the value of the email in the action of the form } HTML Code: <form method="post" action="index.asp?email=user@email.com&password=password"> <select id="email" name="email">
In my MVC 2 website i have an index page with a list of items. Besides each item is a delete link which once you press it prompts you with a jQuery dialogbox where they need to confirm their action.I get the dialog box op with the right buttons and text. But the issue occurs when I try to confirm and call the deleteJob(jobId) method.The problem is that I never reach the ActionResult method in my controller.
When i override the ajax method with $.ajaxSetup and set the type:'post', then consecutive calls to fetch data from the server, by Ajax Tabs (url), the tab stays Loading... forever. Firebug shows that a POST request was made and it completed successfully, however, the Tab stays Loading... forever. If i set it back to type:'get', the Tabs work fine. is it a bug, restriction? if it's a restriction, then why? workarounds?
This is my first post, and I'm only just learning jqury/JavaScript.
i have a form I'd like to send via POST method to a second php page, i have all the validation etc working fine, I'm struggling with the on Submit handler.. once the form is validated...
