View 4 RepliesI am very new to jquery and I am trying to set the value of a textarea which is not in a form, into a hidden field which is in a form. In the text area, I have given it an id called refnote and ive used the text() to get the text in it. However, the problem is setting the retrieved text in a hidden form field.
$('form').submit(function(){
alert ($('#refnotes').text());
return false;
});
I want to be able to set a hidden field with a value when I submit a form.
Here is the javascript
function submitEntry() {
var form = document.sobi2EditForm;
if (form.field_secondarycat1.value=='Nurseries'){

I'm setting an empty hidden div as the value of a form field and then calling inline div opener using thickbox.js:
Code:
<a href="#" onclick="javascript:document.getElementById('previewdiv').innerHTML = document.forms['form1'].content.value;tb_show('Preview','#TB_inline?height=550&width=500&inlineId=previewdiv');"><span class="icon-32-preview" title="Preview"></span>Preview</a>
<div id="previewdiv" name="previewdiv" style="display:none;"></div>
The thickbox opens with the title "Preview", but is empty.I've alerted the div after setting it, and it does contain the formfield value.Why might this be happening? I've also tried setting the div like this (foo as dummy text - to no avail):
Code:
$('#previewdiv').html('foo');
I am writing a web application and had a question regarding the best was to append values to an HTTP Post.
For my get requests, I am using jQuery to append auxiliary data using .load as indicated here:
As you can see I am sending along extra value's with my get requests that controller Servlet uses to send back the right data.
In addition to the get requests, I would like to add some extra data to my forms so that I can have Servlet controller perform the appropriate tasks.
Is the best way to do this by adding a hidden field to HTML?

I have an HTML contact form on many different pages of a web site. I need to know which page the user was on when they submit the form. I need to pass the URL of the current page as a hidden field through the form when it's submitted. Do I need to add javascript to the header to call a function pulling the URL and then a secondary function to place it in the hidden field's "value" attribute?

document.mylist.myNum[i].value= document.getElementsByName("partNum")

myNum[] is a hidden variable and partNum is the name of a text field
that has many instances i mean there are many textfields with the same
name so it forms a column in a data table.
I have a single select dropdown in my application which is hidden for one type of user group. Before a user from this group can save any data, I have to explicitly select the default value of this dropdown for him as this dropdown is not visible to him.
Issue: In IE, this default value doesn't get selected as it is not populated but works fine in Firefox. Is this a jQuery bug?
a user goes to a page, selects a value from a select box then clicks a link to run a report using that hidden variable as a parameter. I am attempting to place the value in the URL to pass it. I'm sure the javascript is working, and maybe it's the HTML I've messed up - not sure.Here is the javascript (the alert does return the correct value):
function OnChangeDay() {
//assign the day id to the hidden variable $day
x=eval(document.getElementById("day_loc_id_select").value)
[code]....
And here is the HTML that should send the value, but I get day= (nothing)
<a href='/depts/edoptions/excel_extract.php?ex=2&day=<? echo $test_day ?>'>SLIP Data to Excel</a>
I'm developing one application that have two iframes. These iframes are ARS forms.So, I need to transfer information from one to the other one and after that, call one save method of the ARS form. (Ps: both have the same src attribute, in other words, the same form).

I have a form that I'm setting an initial value for every field using jQuery and the value of "title" attribute. When you click in the field, the initial value clears out. I need to validate the form, and make the user enter something in each field is indeed valid data.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have created a html purchase request form that people will fill out and submit to make purchase requests within my company. In this html form, I have a text field that is automatically populated when the page is pulled up. The text field is populated with the name of the person who is logged in and it is read only so they cannot be deceitful or anything.To get to this HTML Request form, you must log in through a webclient thus the server knows to populate your name because you are the one logged in. The text field populates because of its <input NAME = "OBProperty_CurrentUserRealName", which is a keyword the program identifies and knows to populate with the logged in users name into that particular text field.
That works all fine and dandy, so here is where the problem lies. When submitting the overall form request, the populated name isnt being saved/ carried over to the admin page so we do not know who it was submitted by.To make the persons name carry over and save, another field name keyword must be used.
Which is OBKey__163_1. Which it was suggested to me to make that the input name of a hidden field. I need "text field A" to continue to populate the form with the persons name using OBKey_CurrentUserRealName, then pass the persons name off to a hidden field containing the input name=OBKey__164_1, which will thus save/pass the persons name on with the rest of the filled out request form when its submitted.
Here is what I have:
<input name="OBProperty_CurrentUserRealName" type="text" id="buyer" style="width:100%" readonly="readonly">
<input name="OBKey__163_1" type="hidden" id="OBKey__163_1">
I've got this hidden div that pops up using jQuery when the login menu item is clicked.

What I'm trying to do is setting the input focus on the user_session_username text input and the code is not working. The div pops up but the focus is never put into the user_session_username edit field.
I have a pop-up window system on my site that shows an absolutely-positioned div over the entire page as a "pop up" of sorts when someone clicks a link. I use this simple line of Javascript to disable page scrolling when a "pop up" box is opened by a user:
document.documentElement.style.overflow = document.body.style.overflow = 'hidden';
The problem is that when a user is scrolled down on a page and clicks a link to bring up one of my pop up boxes, when the overflow is set to 'hidden' to disable scrolling, the page "jolts" back up to the top (similar as to what would happen if someone clicked an <a> element with href="#" ). However, the links are not actually links, but span tags that are programmed with JS to trigger the scrollbar to be disabled when clicked, so that is not the culprit here. I've narrowed the problem down to that one line of code which I posted earlier. Apparently, setting the documentElement overflow style to 'hidden' scrolls the user to the top of the page automatically along with "disabling" the scroll bar on the page.
I am wondering if there is a way to prevent this jolting to the top of the page each time that JS code is triggered. I don't want users to have to scroll back down to where they were each time they open a pop up dialogue box on my site, as this would be detrimental for usability purposes.

I am working on bringing my existing website to the iphone/ipod using jqtouch and jquery.
I am stuck using the following code to change the value of a form's hidden field with the value of a clicked link. It works for the first two clicks then no matter what other link is clicked the form's hidden field value is changed to the value of the first or second clicked link?
Is there a more robust, reliable way of achieving my aim?

I have a function that gets the value of a clicked on <span> like this:
function getSelectedValue(id) {
return $("#" + id).find("dt a span.value").html();
}
and sets the value of a second span like this:
$("#state").html("value: " + getSelectedValue("state"));
When I echo that second span, I get the selected value from the first span. But I need to get that value into a hidden html form field, so I can pass it along with the $_POST array. How do I do this?

Well, my problem is with the use of basic plugin for Jquery Autocoplete, I have not used any of the many that circulate on the Internet. I managed to do well the search and query the database, it returns me the names of the students, the problem comes when I assign the id of the selected name to a hidden field of the form to send via the id _get to another page editor.
To achieve this autocomplete (or autosuggest), I created 3 files. 2 to make the query and process, and the next file that contains the form and the Javascript code that should work.
busq-alumnos.inc.php:
Anyway, the point is that everything works fine except the assignment of the hidden field id on the form.
I have a table set up with a .click() function on each row sothat if it is clicked on, a class is added to the row thus changingthe background, etc. I was wondering if there was is a way to takethe id of the row that was clicked and populate a hidden field withit. What would I need to include in my .click() function for this towork?Here is my current one:
$("tr").click(function () {
$(".clicked").removeClass("clicked");
$(this).addClass("clicked");

I am using multiple links at the same page with same class(cannot access using id because of multiple links) like

<a class="coupon_link" href="#?stockAlert=47">Click here to get coupon</a>

I have the official qQuery autocomplete plugin ( from bassistance) working properly. Start typing a product name and it queries my php script and mysql to return a list of products.
However, when the user submits the form, I want a hidden form field that contains the row ID for that product in the database table. I would have thought that this is a very common need, but I did not see any of the examples in the doc or website.

I am using $.post to send an HTTP Post Request to my web page and I receive the generated HTML code within the corresponding callback function. Unfortunately, the browser does not reload the web page automatically to see the changes of the request. For sure, I could use document.window.reloaed() to make them visible, but instead I simply wanna use the returned HTML code to change web page.
I have tried several javascript statements, such as window.childNodes[0].innerHTML = data or window.clear() but nothing works. Then, I saw the option of using $(document).html(data) but this is also not the approriate one.
I'm using jquery autocomplete to fill a textbox with some text but I need to get the ID of the item too. For this purpose I thought to use the on select event to fill an hidden field the problem is that the on select event is never fired.
This is my code
$(function() {
$('input#<%= tblNewInsert.FindControl("nazioni").ClientID %>').autocomplete({
source: function(request, response) {
$.ajax({
url: "offerte.aspx/fillJson",
data: "{ 'descrizione': '" + request.term + "', 'tabella': 'nazioni', 'campo': 'paese' }",
dataType: "json",
type: "POST",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
select: function(event, ui) { alert("never fired"},
success: function(data) {
response($.map(data.d, function(item) {
return {
value: item.descrizione
}}))},
error: function(XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
alert(textStatus);
}});},
minLength: 1
});});
I want to show pictures of my students on a page so I can take the presence easily. I made that using a MySQL DB with php. That's the easy part.
Next, i managed to make a jquery script so when I click each image the border of that image cycle through green, red and yellow (in - out - late css class).
Here is the html code (id from hidden field is the student number)
<div class="presences-container">
<ul>
<li class="presences-image in"><img src="7465.jpg">
<input type="hidden" id="7465" name="presence2" value="in"/></li>
[Code]....
Now, I want to set each hidden field value according to the state of the image (in ou or late) with jquery and submit all hidden field to put it in my DB.
I found the following code to get the value of a radio button (radio1 is the name of both the yes and no radio buttons):
How do I pass this value to a hidden text field?
