JQuery :: Modal Form Won't Post Back To Server Unless It Is Closed First?
Jan 31, 2011
I have created an entry form that I display in a modal dialog. I have two buttons on the form: "Add and close", and "Add and allow me to add another". However the only time my modal form will post back to the server is after the form has been closed. I want to do the following: The user opens the form in a modal dialog. The user enters data, and clicks the "Add and allow me to add another" button. The page sends the user input to the server, which adds the input to a database and updates a datagrid on the page. This updated datagrid is visible behind the modal form, so the user can see it happening in the background The form clears all input fields and the user goes again. Any code I write that calls the server (button click events, ajax calls, etc) are ignored, unless the modal form has been closed.
I show a form in the modal pop up which has several drop down lists in it. The problem is that if i select nething from the drop down list then my selected index change event fires and my form gets refresh..how to overcome this problem??
Can we use modal pop up wherein there are multiple post backs?? I also tried adding update panels etc.
How would I be able to display $yes in the index.php page after the modal window of profile.php is closed? Or how would I be able to refresh the index.php page after profile.php page is closed?
I have several form inputs with a submit link in a modal page, and when I click the submit link I call this function to download a personalized pdf with the GET params.
I am trying to write code to allow a person select one photo to be their base image or Front cover image on a photo album. I am using jquery .post to get the form check box values which are the image file names and then use post to throw them to a php file and then update the database.
Now thats cool so far and that part works. Now the problem is that I need the main photo album picture to be replaced once the .post if completed or succeeded. I need to refresh the main image. Right now the only way to do it is to hit the refresh button on your web browser. Yet I want to do this without refreshing the page.
The Image displayed already is in a image html tag with a id named user_main I was thinking is it possible for .post to pass back to javascript a variable that has the image source and is there any way to update that image tag easily like where it says src="path to image" is located.
Would like to know the best way to refresh the image without having to refresh the page.
I am trying to create dynamic content using append and appendTo functions. It seems to work fine and I can see the new elements on the fly using a Button to execute a customized function based on this jquery methods. something like this:
I've been trying to figure out how to echo back error messages from a PHP edit page, for example. Say if I am editing a grid and sending that info with json to a php page to update a database, if there is a validation or other problem, how do I echo that back on the page with the jquery? Do I put that in a div container too for best practice?
I have a simple three-field form in a UI Dialog that, prior to POSTing, I need to validate using the jQuery Validation plugin.Currently, if the user clicks the form's Submit button (the form's action for the PHP form handling is the page with the link that opens the Dialog in the first place) with a field not properly filled out, the Dialog just closes.Clicking again on the link that opens the Dialog form will show the form with the error message(s) that the Validator generated on the previous click of the submit button.How can I keep the Dialog open and prevent a POST until the form validates?
I just started using jQuery, but i can't get it working. On the index.php page I want a search form, that post's to search.php. Following next, I want that the html of search.php (which will only be a table with the results), is show into the 'results' div in the index.php.
This is the code im using:
<script type="text/javascript"> /* attach a submit handler to the form */ $(document).ready(function(){ alert("Ok - 1");
[Code].....
The alert's are for debugging, but none of them show's up.
I have adrop-downelement on the page. On the change event I am appending two labels to a text box. The problem is I am able to see the newly added elements on the page while debugging it. but as soon as thepost backoccurs the added elements seems to bedisappearingfrom the page.
I have a web page that displays records from a database. I want to allow the user to specify his own "page size" - that is, the number of records to be displayed on a given page. I have a place set up for him to enter a value and save it to a cookie. My problem is, I can't figure out a good, simple way to pass that value back to the server.
The page is accessed in various ways: it's first viewed by selecting it from a javascript menu. Then the page itself contains a form with a series of buttons that allow the user to jump to a specific page above or below the current page. There are also "sort links" at the top of the columns of data which refresh the data sorted in a different way. In all of these cases, I will need to pass the page size back to the server.
I tried storing the page size in a hidden input field. This works but it's not available on the first request (from the menu). I thought about passing in the value as a query string (mypage.htm?PS=123) but I can't figure out how to attach the value to all of the various requests (menu, form and links).
how do i pass values back to javascript from the server via ajax? I don't want to pass entire html. Is there any way to simply pass a JavaScript object or an array without stuff like xml and json? I could probably do an eval() on the result to convert it to a javascript understandable array, but maybe there's a more clever way to do that?
I want to populate my client's webpage (Remote Server) automatically through my Server and Database by having him just paste a javascript on his webpage.
I have read up about Microsoft Remote Scripting but the documentation states the following : "The server which you make remote scripting calls must be the same server from which you requested the client page containing the requests."
In my case , the client and server pages are on two seperate servers which means that I cannot use MS Remote Scripting.Is there an alternate approach in any scripting language ???
Any suggestions, tutorials , websites , code snippets will be appreciated while i continue to research on this...
I'm trying to read a file (will be a firmware update) into a byte array or binary stream or stream of some sort, and then POST it to my server. Any suggestions on opening and reading files from within js? Note, the server is a development server and will not run PHP or CGI scripts for example. I just need to be able to open a file from within a js function.
Also, no ActiveX objects, this needs to be Cross Platform.
I have many tags. I want click each tag, then post/get the tag's value to another page. In another page, received the values and make a mysql query. Then return the resalt data to the first page(do not make an iframe).
I am trying integrate an upload system from YouSendIt.com in to my companies forms. The code they give for integration is basically an iframe with a coded URL set for the source. Their server sends a postback using HTTP Post method but I am not sure how to access the data that is sent back. I do not need to display it but I need to use it for validation purposes in the rest of my form. The Iframe code is as such:
I have these two functions below and when i try to change the back url string value on the main server to check_out.php like it is on the dev. environment nothing happens. It keeps going back to the myaccount.php. It works fine on the development environment.
function stateChanged() { if (xmlHttp.readyState==4 || xmlHttp.readyState=="complete")[code]....
I have a few values and variables that I want to post to a server (without using a SUBMIT button). Is there a way to post data from within javascript - do sockets or connections have to be open for this to work?
I am new to JQuery and want to know how i can submit a form that is in a JQuery Dialog Modal Form. I have a button on my main page, which opens up a modal form, with a form inside. Here are 2 snippets from the code. <script type="text/javascript"> $(function(){ // Dialog$('#dialog').dialog({ autoOpen: false, width: 330, buttons: { "OK": function () { alert("FORM SHOULD SUBMIT HERE"); }, "Cancel": function() { $(this).dialog("close"); }}}); // Dialog Link $('#dialog_link').click(function(){ $('#dialog').dialog('open'); return false; }); //hover states on the static widgets $('#dialog_link, ul#icons li').hover( function() { $(this).addClass('ui-state-hover'); }, function() { $(this).removeClass('ui-state-hover'); } );}); </script> Code on the dialog. <div id="dialog" title="Search by Job Number"><form action="SearchByJob.asp" method="post" name="JobForm"> <p>Enter Job Number:<input name="JobNumber" type="text" class="TextSmallBlack" id="JobNumber" size="30"></p><form> </div> How can I get the form to submit to the SearchByJob page?. If I put $("JobForm").submit() under the OK function, nothing happens.
I am creating an admin in ColdFusion and am trying to add a feature where when the user clicks the "edit" button for something, a modal window will pop up which contains a form (loaded from an external file) that when the user submits it, it's an AJAX submit and then the modal window closes and fires off a function that updates the display page. I am using SimpleModal [URL] and I managed to load an external form file into the modal window using $.get but then I can't figure out how to get that form that loads in the modal window to submit via AJAX instead of the default form post that happens. I need to submit their data via AJAX and then if successful, close the window and do the update function on the display. Has anyone already done this?
I am creating an form dialog that will be slightly different for creating data than editing data. I'm pretty new to jquery, but I'm using the jqueryui and it seems to be working fine, but now I'm looking to change the labels of a couple of buttons and have one button available during editing (but not creating)....
