View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a website where people can create posts similar to FB(I hate that example but it's widely known) -- how do I strip HTML tagging out of the post before I put it in my db? (I'm using AJAX atm).The obvious crossed my mind with replacing "<" and/or ">" but I want those chars to be available when posting -- is there a way to do this or a way to print the data to my page as text even if it has those tags?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an ASP page that displays, along with other data, a list of items that refer to a specific element in a database. Instead of adding an Add button, I would like to display a text box below the last item in the list to have the user input any new data. Once they enter the data and hit Enter, the data they enter should then be added to the list and another text box added beneath this item (just as forms and tables in Access do). However, I'm not sure how to implement this functionality.

I am trying to write a small javascript program where I can call the following two functions and store information which a user enters. The problem is if I call the function a second time to add more information the array gets overwritten.[code]...
View 5 Replies View RelatedI use the following to verify that a user has entered a number between 0 and 99 in a form:
It seems to work fine in all browser / machine combos except Firefox on a Mac, when entering 0 returns false (I don't know if entering other numbers also returns false.)
I need to validate that the the user has entered a ten digit number into the text box, and need some help with the code. Here is what I have:
<html>
<head>
<title>Checking with RegExp</title>
</head>

I have a JavaScript application that needs to preserve double quote marks and apostrophes (" and ') that are entered into form fields by the user. The form data is passed through several screens using hidden fields.
Right now, apostrophes work because I have the input fields coded as value="". I have not found a way for JavaScript to retrieve the field's value if double quotes are entered by the user. If I change the parameter to value='' (single quotes) then the apostrophes probably won't work.
Is there a straightforward way for JavaScript to retrieve the field value containing quotes, so that I can manipulate it into a different string that can be easily passed between HTML pages?
I'm using jQuery validation on a form and I can't get it to only validate optional fields if the user enters something (should recognize the difference between this and the default value of the field, for text input fields). I know this is built in (I think) but I must be doing something wrong.
For example, phone number is optional but I want it to validate if the user enters something. Code for the phone in the JS file is:
jQuery.validator.addMethod("phone", function(phone_number, element) {
phone_number = phone_number.replace(/s+/g, "");
return this.optional(element) || phone_number.length > 9 &&
phone_number.match(/^(1-?)?(([2-9]d{2})|[2-9]d{2})-?[2-9]d{2}-?d{4}$/);
[Code]....
When I just put "phone" as the class it validates the field even if it is not edited by the user at all. For the required fields I put "required" as the class to validate them but I just read in another post that this is not necessary with the plugin...? I guess I am not sure whether the field should be define as optional by a class or in the JS file, and if it's the latter, how to do that.
I need to write code to prompt the user to save the changes before the user session expires. And this should happen only when the user makes any changes, if he doesnt make any changes, I should not be prompting him. For this I need to check if any fields are modified in the page. I need a generalised code that goes in the header or footer page of the application, so that I dont have to make any changes to the existing 100 pages.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've wrote what (at least in my mind) and awsome report generator for a group who uses my server. The user gets all the data from the server via the server's normal reporting tools, and then sorts/shows/hides/formats columns using javascript/jquery (saves server cycles). There is only one slight problem (think "grand canyon" slight), once a user has a form he or she wants, then the user needs to save the tab separated value form of the report to disk.
I can output the TSV into a DIV (and probably an IFRAME I'm guessing), and do for display purposes. However, the users need to copy/paste at this point, which is rather user-unfriendly. Is there a way to either prompt a file download/save (without making a call to the server and wasting time), or opening up a new tab with just the desired text, so the user can save it?
EDIT: I'd rather not replace the whole page that generates the report, as the user probably doesn't want to lose his or her work in formatting setings, and my want to generate multiple reports from one dataset/query, without having to rewrite the query.
I have a confirm message box which asks the user whether they wish to take a survey. At the moment the confirm box appears each time the page is loaded. Would there be a way that when the user selects OK to take the survey this is remembered, so when the users next visit the page the box doesn't appear?
View 1 Replies View RelatedOn one of my sites, I have a reather involved page (searchable map).
When the person leaves the page then all the AJAX generated
information is lost. Is there a way that I can retain all this data
in a cookie or so or how would you recommend I saved all the users
information (perhaps using a database on the serverside).
I have a long survey form and once its submitted it gets recorded into a database. I would love to be able to save a PDF version of the HTML form with all their radio buttons and textfields filled out at the same time its submitted. It would need a unique name that matches their record in the database (maybe it pulls the data that was entered into one of the form fields for the name).
Whether it gets uploaded to an ftp or just emailed to a mailbox doesn't really matter. The purpose of this is to basically have a visual interpretation of the data by a single user.
Can anybody lend me a textbox script for javascript that you can save the data writen in it.
i want for if i write in it and sumbody else does all they have to do is hit the save and its all saved and next time you go there it will be the last thing you wrote or anybody else wrote..
I am trying to design a system that allows users to draw on a whiteboard with different colors, save their drawing into hidden input boxes in the form on the page, then they can click Save Logo to save it to process it through PHP. I have the whiteboard that allows them to draw, but I am lost as to how to get the thing to populate the hidden input boxes.
So, I have the following code:
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
[code]....
What I am trying to do is use the function mousedown(e) to include an event to update a hidden input box with the value of the TD's background color that the hidden input field is attached to, so that it can be tracked when the user hits Save Logo at the bottom of the page. When they hit Save Logo, I want the form to post to itself, go through each of the input hidden fields and capture the color for each table cell, then generate an image based on the generated array, save it to a file on the server with the user's $_SESSION['userid'] as the filename + .jpg.
The problem is, though, that I do not know how to tell JavaScript to do this in the function mousedown(e) code. Also, look in the function table_create and see if I am naming the hidden input boxes correctly; not sure if it will generate the wanted result.
Just a note: I can handle all the PHP handling of the form, I just need help with the Javascript.
Edit: I attached the entire script/page to this post because so many functions rely on each other to operate, and I'm not exactly sure which function will need to be modified to get the desired result. Also, you can copy the code to a .php file to see what it looks like (as that may assist in demonstrating exactly what I'm trying to do, visually).
Edit 2: I suppose what I need to find is how to get the JavaScript to assign a value to the hidden input field that has the same id as the TD field that it needs to be linked to.
I'm working on a webpage which is completely self-sufficient. This means if you copied the source you would be able to load it locally without any glitches from your computer. I want to embed a "Save As" feature into this document using only javascript or jquery. For various reasons I do not have access to a server-side language to perform this action. I've done some research but can't seem to find a definitive way to do this.
My goal:
User clicks "Save As HTML" button which triggers jquery to copy the source of the page and present it to the user as a mypage.html download. My fall back approach will be to open a new tab with just the desired html and instruct the user to manually "File -> Save As". However, this is very undesirable and I would like to find a solution to fulfill the goal above.
how to save data like : position, style, etc in a cookie, using jquery, and then to load that data back if i need to.
I've been researching and i found some plugins but i cant put the script together,
i would like a simple working example or some good documentation because from what i read it doesn't seem to be very hard, but on every forum I've been that talks about cookie setup there is not so much info
I would like to use jQuery to prepopulate a form - ie make a call to a php program to get data from a database and pre-populatea form with appropriate data for the user. Can anyone point me in the right direction for some examples on the simplest way to do this?
