How To Pass Form Name To Validation Function
Mar 9, 2009
If I replace:
Code:
document.val.search_word.value == ""
with
Code:
document.searchform.search_word.value == ""
It works fine, why isnt "val" passing the $frm value to the script?
Code HTML4Strict:
<script>
function checkSearch($frm) {
var val = $frm;
missinginfo = "";
if (document.val.search_word.value == "" ) {
missinginfo += "
- 'Search' was left blank!
";} .....

In the DOM Scripting book by Jeremy Keith, he provides this function:
Code:
function styleElementSiblings(tag,theclass) {
if (!document.getElementsByTagName) return false;
var elems = document.getElementsByTagName(tag);
for (var i=0; i<elems.length; i++) {
var elem = getNextElement(elems[i].nextSibling);
addClass(elem,theclass);
} }
And then says to pass the values "h1" and "intro" to this function in this form:
styleElementSiblings("h1","intro");
I'm just a little stuck on how to "pass the values". Presumably I've missed something simple. I've tried just pasting that line before the function, but no luck. He also provides a function that allows multiple functions to load at once, called addLoadEvent, so I tried this, also with no luck:
addLoadEvent(styleElementSiblings("h1","intro"));

I'm working with the following code:
parent window:
Code:
<html>
<head>[code]....
Currently, the Code will open the child window, show a search box, search for the database and display links, when you click on the link, the parent window will show the variable passed. My question is, how would i change this so that each of the variables displayed would have a php variable that i could submit with a form?

I have been using this simple js function to validate a field in a form is filled in.
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function SubmitForm()
{
var form = document.formname
if (form.client_id.value.length == 0)
{
alert('Please make a selection from the list');
form.client_id.focus();
}
else
{
form.submit();
}
}
//-->
</script>
Now I have a page with multiple forms and I would like to use the same script to validate depending on which form is submitted. I thought I should be able to do something like this.... but know very little javascript...any suggestions? Code:

Within an aspx page, I have a form with asp controls (text boxes) that I'm loading within a jQuery modal popup dialog. Once the user fills out the form and the register button is clicked in the modal form, it invokes a code-behind function, which seems to be working fine. However, the problem I'm facing is in the code-behind function; none of the field values in the modal popup form are being passed to the code-behind function.I was unable to attach some snapshots directly to the post, so I uploaded it at the following urls:

I am trying to create a basic unobtrusive form validation function but I am having some issues/questions. Basically I am checking if any of the form fields have <= 3 characters, and if they do so, then I make those fields' backgrounds and borders red. Also in the empty <span> tags I insert an error message. My issues/questions are:
#1: So when I say if (fieldVals<=3) this means that the errors should appear if the values are 1,2 or 3 characters long, right? It does not do that though, when I insert one character in any of the form fields the errors go away, but they should not, right?
#2: How do I cancel the form from submitting if errors are visible and vice versa? When I use the return false when errors are visible, the code does not even run. What is going on? return true does the same.
#3: When I use a submit button(type="submit") instead of just a button(type="button"), the code does not run? What am I doing wrong?
I am not trying to use this on a website, I am just trying to learn how to use unobtrusive javascript. That's why I am only checking for empty fields. If I learn how to do this first, later I will try to add email check, date check etc.

Dear all, I got a question. Just want to make sure the my files validate. On one of the pages where I used JavaScript, it won't validate and here are some of the mistakes the w3c states:
Line 20, Column 37: character "&" is the first character of a delimiter but occurred as data
else if (document.documentElement && document.documentElement.scrollTop)
If I change "&" in my embedded JavaScript into "&", will the JavaScript still work the way it is meant?

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.

I'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?

I am trying to minimize the amount of script that I use on my website. I have sections of each page; each section has the same basic layout. The divs and images that I want to make appear and disappear all have nearly identical ids, the only difference is the number at the end of the id.Is there a way to get one script to automatically detect which id number has been clicked and then show all elements with the same number at the end of the id? I would also like it to hide the elements in the hide function below (basically they are the elements that do not share the same id number).I currently have everything working the way I want it to using multiple functions like the one below but I woul
$("#2thumbNail2 , #ledBar").click(function () {
$("#type201 , #type203 , #type204").hide();
$("#image201 , #image203 , #image204").fadeOut("slow");

I have my website www.gebcn.com. If you view source you will see all that I have done, but more importantly my problem. I have the JS code at the top there and I am unable to W3C validate my HTML because of the JS. I am using XHTML strict and would like to stay using it.
The JS I have at the top is my form validation code. I am able to do any validating that I need with this "snippet" of code, I have shrank it from my library version just to use for this newsletter. Until now W3C validating was not important now for some reason it is and I am faced with this problem.
I am not a Javascript guy more of a HTML/CSS guy and I can manipulate JS to suit my needs.
<problem> I have tried to make this "snippet" of JS code an external file but receive multiple errors with the JS calling for the FORM NAME as it is not on the same page. The form NAME=NEWSLETTER is another problem, as W3C says I am unable to use attribute "NAME" in this location. <problem> I would like to keep the JS close to how it is now as I have a library to use this JS over and over again.

I need to pass user input from a form to one database field. I'm relatively new to JS but the idea I had was to have several form elements and use JS to collect the users input and send all the values through a hidden element. What's happening is the variable names are being sent rather than the values. The code below is only passing to the next page. Limitations: I am editing an intranet site built by a 3rd party so a lot of the files we've been given are encrypted. I cannot change the method to post.

Having a few problems with a form validation script. Its supposed to stop sending the form if key fields are missing, but it just sends them anyway!
Below is the code i use in the header to check for blank fields:

And now the code i use to action it:

From what i can see the fields match, it all links up correctly but still it will allow blank forms to be sent.

I'm having trouble changing the font color of my labels ONLY when I stop the form from submitting due to blank fields. I'm not sure whether if just changing my CSS will achieve what I want, or am I going to have to add somethig to my if else statement, or both? I would think I would need to change CSS to :
label.onfocus {
color:red;
}
but a little confused on what else.

I have a working contact form with 3 of the fields requiring validation and they work well. I have added extra fields to the form (StatusClass, Project, CameFrom). These 3 fields return fine but I need to validated them. My problem is that the new fields don't show in the behaviours/validate panel even though they are within the form tag.
<script type="text/JavaScript">
<!--
function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01
var p,i,x; if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}

I currently have a form named "survey". I found here a JavaScript to validate my form.
I am having serious issues with this script, either it won't execute at all (the form doesn't work, as well as the validation) or the form submits without validating the form.
Here is the current JavaScript I am using.

I've literally tried everything. Read 26 tutorials, interchanged code, etc. My validation functions all work. My AJAX functions work (tested manually using servlet URL's). The second servlet validates the reCaptcha form that's generated on my webpage. After the form is validated, even if everything's correct, nothing happens upon clicking submit. I even have an alert pop up if with the captcha result, just for middle-layer debugging purposes.
I want to do all of my validation clientside; none serverside. However, going to be tough if I can't get my god damn form to submit. I've been puzzled by this for close to 36 hours straight. I can't see, and I'm going to get some rest and hope that there is some useful insight on my problem when I return.

I've set up a mock registration form page so I can learn a bit about javascript's form validation. (newbie) I want to try to attempt to style the border of a form field green when the user enters the correct info into the form text field and red on all other fields if the user doesnt enter any info into them. When i test it, enter the right info into the username field, leave the others blank, and hit the submit button it styles the username field green ok but it doesnt make the next fields (password and so on) red. just for testing purposes I've put return false on everything so it displays a message when everythings ok.[code]
