JQuery :: 1.3.2 Error - Form Element Must Not Be Named Submit
Aug 2, 2009
I was using jquery-1.2.6 and now, I started to use jquery-1.3.2, and I get my first "difference": when I use the wrapped set operation $ (':input[@name=submit]') with jquery-1.3.2 it returns all input fields, but if I use it with jquery-1.2.6 it returns 0 (as espected). Is it an error with 1.3.2 version?What do you think I'm doing wrong? This wrapped set is used by "jQuery Form Plugin" and, if I have file uploads I get the alert 'Error: Form elements must not be named "submit".' from the function "fileUpload" of this plugin.
I'm trying to get an upload popup working with the jQuery form plugin[URL].. When I click a link I load a form html from the server and add it to a container div by setting the div's html attribute. I then attach a submit handler to the form so I can call the ajaxSubmit function of the form plugin.
I am trying to hide confidential data being submitted by a payment button. Now I am wondering how I could catch the according <form> element being created "on the fly" and submit it automatically ensuring that there is no chance for anybody to access the data.
I'm using external js, not jQuery.I have two different forms on two different web pages. I'd like for the same validating script to handle both forms. I had this:
For each element in the currently loaded markup page that has an 'id' attribute, elements can be accessed like-
var elem = document.getElementById("foo"); - ("foo" is the 'id')
now i want to implement a shorthand method which can give me the element just by this:
var elem = document.foo; -("foo" is the 'id');
For this , i will have to add properties to the global "document" object for each element in the currently loaded page that has an attribute. These properties should be added when a page is loaded , and should be removed when a page is unloaded..
How can i dynamically add and remove property to an object.
I'm trying to diagnose/solve a problem with internet explorer, whereby sometimes the form submits, and other times IE produces an 'invalid syntax' error.
First, I have a form, and within the form is a button bar and a <div> block which contains a table of parameters. The div block is used to create a layer.
Now, when the table contains 15 or less rows in it, any button on the button bar which calls form.submit() works as it should, however, where the table has 16 or more rows, the form.submit generates an "invalid syntax" error. IE doesnt provide any more detail on this error. Code:
I have ONE page which consists of php, html, and javascript, all on the same page. I have 3 different listboxes on a form, their named id's are: "strike", "grapple", and "strength". I have a span tag named id as: "pa". I Have a variable which is constant and named $totalValue and its vale is: 30, I have another variable named: $availableValue which will get its initial value from $totalValue. What I want to do is this, a user will choose his/her first list box. When the uses clicks the arrow on the listbox it drops down filled with values to choose from, these values come from the $availableValue variable and should be displayed as: 1,2,3,4,5,etc,etc,etc, after the user makes their selection the value of $availableValue is decreased by the amount of the user's selected choice and the value of the $availableValue is displayed on the html part of the page in a span tag.
The user will then choose his/her second listbox, upon clicking that arrow the listbox drops down displaying the REMAINING values from $availableValue variable and displays them as: 1,2,3,etc,etc,etc, after the user makes their selection the value of $availableValue is decreased by the amount of the user's selected choice and the value of the $availableValue is displayed on the html part of the page in a span tag. The user will then choose the last listbox, and upon clicking its arrow the list drops down with the LAST REMAINING values from $availableValue and will be displayed as: 1,2,etc,etc, after the user makes their selection the value of $availableValue is decreased by the amount of the user's selected choice and the value of the $availableValue is displayed on the html part of the page in a span tag.
The user should be able to choose which ever listbox he/she wants as their first listbox. So for argument's sake lets say the user chooses listbox "grapple" first, but of course the user could have chosen any of the 3 listboxes first, but he/she choose "grapple" first. The "grapple" listbox should fill with values 1 to 30, ex: 1,2,3,4,up to 30, the user selects value 5 from "grapple", the $availableValue variable will decrease by 5 and the value of $availableValue is displayed in a span tag. The user then chooses listbox "strength", its values should be filled and displayed with values from 1 to 25, the user selects 8 from "strength", the $availableValue variable decreases by 8 and the value of $availableValue is displayed in a span tag. Finally the user selects listbox "stamina", it listbox displays the values from 1 to 17, the user selects 17 from "stamina" and the $availableValue variable decreases by 17 and the value of $availableValue is displayed in a span tag. All this should happen BEFORE I submit the form via php code.
The code below, including the html, is ALL on one page named: createfighter.php <?php $totalValue = 30; $availableValue = $totalValue; $action = $_REQUEST['action']; $strike = $_POST['strike']; $grapple = $_POST['grapple']; $strength = $_POST['strength']; ?> .....
I have this form that depending on the shift you choose certain form elements get grayed out. Here's the part that I don't understand. I validate the form in php and display the errors but the form re-enables everything that was grayed out. Not the behavior I was expecting. How would I go about this?I attached a copy of the HTML source created from php.
I need to keep the 'NAME' as an array as above because of the form processing that is used after submit.
I was really hoping to use Javascript to validate the form and make sure that each checkbox group has at least one option selected , but my javascript messes up because the 'NAME' is Q1[] as opposed to Q1. I had been using:
<script> function validate() { if (!(mainform.Q1[0].checked || mainform.Q1[1].checked|| mainform.Q1[2].checked)) { alert('Please answer question 1.'); event.returnValue=false; }} </script>
but this only works when I name the checkboxes NAME="Q1". Is anyone aware of how to get the validate function to work (or another way of validating the form) even when the checkboxes and radio buttons are named like NAME="Q1[]".
In the following .submit function, I am attempting to grab the value of the selected option in the facilityCodes dropdown list when I click the submit button and then during the submit function,select the facilityCode again in the dropdown list when the page reloads and then disable the list so that the user cannot change it.However,the situation is when I reload the page after the submit button is clicked the dropdown defaults to the first option and the list is enabled.I apparently am not understanding how.submit works so that I'm selecting the option I'm defining in my code below and then disabling the list AFTER the page reloads due to an error on the page. My question is how can I accomplish this?Here is my code:
$(function() { $("#ARTransferForm").submit(function() { var msgsCount = 0;[code]....
I'm using mailchimps signup box (they don't have a decent forum to ask on) on my website and want to adjust the submit button and change it to a normal link. Here's the button that submit's the form:
I have a page with many forms that I need to change from a post to an ajax call. That part is working, no problem, but now I want to disable the submit button while it's waiting on the server response and then re-enable it when the response comes back.
I can't figure out what my selector should be to get the submit button of the form that's being submitted. What should I be using instead? Also, if the call errors out, I'd like to just post the form as usual.
I am trying to setup a form with radio buttons. Each radio button has an OnClick event. When a radiobutton is clicked the current set of radio buttons will be replaced with a new set using document.createElement("input"). Each new radio button needs the same onclick event addedas in the initial set of radio buttons. I first tried:
The code below will show the remaining character count. I'm trying to figure out how to disable the submit button if the user exceeds the 140 character count and re-enable once they're in the "safezone" again...
I thought I could just add: $("#edit-message-send").css({disabled: true}); in the event of an error, and then $("#edit-message-send").css({disabled: false}); if they correct it, but it's not working in either situation.
I'm having some problems understanding the append() function. What I'd like to do is select an element using it's ID and add a row to the table with a HTML form element. The table is dynamically generated using a Django template ( form.as_table() ) so I'm not able to alter the original HTML markup too much.
I have created a form with malsup's Form Plugin wherein it submits on change of the inputs. I have set up my jQuery script to index drop down menus and visible inputs, and uses that index to determine whether keydown of tab should move focus to the next element or the first element, and likewise with shift+tab keydown. However, instead of moving focus to the first element from the last element on tab keydown like I would like it to, it moves focus to the second element. How can I change it to cycle focus to the actual first and last elements? Here is a live link to my form: [URL]. Here is my script:
$(document).ready(function() { var options = { target: '#c_main', success: setFocus
On my form I have 3 submit buttons which handle different things.I am looking for a way to stop or continue form execution with a confirm box on the third submit button and the third only.I can't use onsubmit because that will trigger on all three buttons.
Is it possible to read a web page on some web site that contains a form. Then identify the fields in the forms. Then fills the fields with my data. and then submits the form as it submitted normally. I need to do this to automate for my final proyect , i need to fill many web pages remotly
I have come across a very interesting problem that seems to be impossible to solve. Basically a web application that I am working on relies on a JavaScript function called go to change the input named view to the page name and submit the form. This form's type is post, so no values are included in the actual URL string. There is also another input called action and it's value is view. This is to tell the application that the user would like to view a page. The problem is because of the variables being of method post, page refreshes and back and forwards return errors because the post variables view and action aren't sent with the required data. To somewhat solve this problem I have created a feature that tells the application that if the post value page is empty then to try and get a GET var called page. To insert this var into the go javascript function I simple add this code
This line basically adds &page=[page] to the action of the form. The problem is, this code doesn't work because action is also the name of a form element. Referencing document.go.action refers to the input element named action and not to the form's action. Changing the named of the action input value is out of the question (Way to much changing of code, and possible room for error). What can I do to change the action of the form without referencing the input named action. Here is my go form and the JavaScript code:
The following will submit the form data to popup by clicking the submit button. I want it will submit the form automatically to the popup, there is no submit button in this page. Basically this page should not show up.
I'm having troubles with an existing J2EE application (which uses Dojo) and in which I'm gradually introducing jQuery. The specific issue is with the malsup Form plugin and the JSON returned from a form submission: the error callback is always called, regardless of what happens on the server side, and the error is always "parsererror". I'm using jQuery 1.4.2 and the 2.45 version of the malsup Form plugin. For example, given the following code:
$(document).ready(function() { var options = { dataType: 'json',[code]....
the server receives the submission and handles it without errors, then in the browser I always get the same alert from the processAddressEditSubmitError() function, with an "Invalid JSON" message:
