JQuery :: Using A Colorpicker To Update A Form Field With Css?
Feb 8, 2011
I've done a fair bit of development in php, html and css, but none whatsoever in javascript so far.
I've found myself looking to jQuery as a potential solution to an interesting problem that I'd like to solve: I have a basic CMS that clients can use to manage the rental of items (caravan pitches to backhoes). The site administrator gets to enter the details of their products, prices and so forth, and then visitors to their site can see the availability of their products on a dynamically generated calendar - and book them online.
Part of the CMS allows the creation of 'seasons' - periods of the year in which a product's rental price changes - for special offers, etc. Different seasons are shown on the calendar using different css markup that the admin can change in the 'create/edit season' form.
Clearly, I can't expect Joe Siteadmin to type correct CSS and, ideally, I'd like to avoid limiting him to a swatch of pre-generated choices. So, having been seduced by the sexiness of the jQuery UI calendar plugin, I was thinking that it ought to be fairly easy to provide a jQuery color picker of some sort on the 'create/edit season' form, maybe with some radio buttons to dynamically link the picker to change background, text and border color - and update the relevant css rules for the colors chosen, on the fly, in the relevant input field on the form.

I was making mysearchfieldI though jQuer may help update one dropdown box when a value in one box is updated.
So, my search goes like this, Search for Pet [PetDropDown], Search for Breed [BreedDropDown], Search Location [Text feild] and Search Price [Text Feild].
So in this system i want the [DropDown] box to automatically update it self, with no reloading, thats where jQuery comes in (im guessing) with a list of Breed that link with the Pets DropDown. So if the user picks Dog, then the Breed Dropdown will show Breeds that areassociatedwith Dogs, such as Collie, Jack Russell or Staffordshire Bull Terrier. If a Pet isn't selected then nothing will show.
The information come from the data and a phpstatementfor the Breed DropDown would be as such: $sql = "SELECT id, title, value, type, cat FROM site_cats WHERE type = '[PetDropDown]' "; of course it wont be [PetDownDown] but as a $value such as $petType or $pet.

I'm doing an ajax call to a remote php file... it returns a value fine,
and even enters a value into a text field on my form. The problem is,
right after the function call to the ajax function, I do an alert of
what the field value is, and it doesn't recognize the field value has
been changed. Two caveats:
1 - It will recognize the last call's change
(if I run it a 2nd time, it'll see the 1st call changes)
onBlur="ajaxCall(document.form1);alert(document.form1.ajax Field.value);">
2 - It'll recognize the current call's change if I set a 2 second
timeout
onBlur="ajaxCall(document.form1);setTimeout('checkFields(d ocument.form1)',2000);">
It seems, although I can see the text field getting updated,
programmatically speaking, it isn't reflecting it until everything is
done... including any alerts and such.
It's weird seeing the empty alert popup, when I can see the value in
the text field underneath it.

when the user types a FIRST NAME into the first name textbox this should update the paxname with the value and a space.when the user types a LAST NAME into the last name textbox this should update the paxname with the value therefore at the end of the process the paxname will have the full name of the person in order with spaces in between. also i would like the first name and last name values to be changed to proper case ie John Smith once placed into paxname the update process does not have to be instantaneous, it can perhaps update the paxname textbox when the focus is gone from the field in question, dont mind how it works as long as it updates.

sample code, whereby if I change a field value in a web form (from a drop-down list for example), the value shown in another field is automatically updated to show the needed value for that selected option?

I'm using this colorpicker, and it is wonderful. However, I want to use it inside a jQuery dialog box (on an input tag inside a form just like the example in the website), but the problem is that when the colorpicker appears it is partially behind the dialog (on the z-axis) and therefore unusable. FYI changing the zIndex property on the dialog does not work.

Environment is PHP - MYSQL When the user changes the value of a select drop-down, I want to use Ajax and query one table of my database, retrieve three pieces of data, and place the data in three separate text fields in my form. Is there a simple tutorial out there that explains this?
I get the general concept of the separate php file for the query, but I'm pretty much lost.

so, the pseudo code: - on change of input contents, check to see if two input fields are set - if set, update a third field with "loading..." text and a loading gif - use ajax to send data to a url, and get a calculated json response - update the third field with the calculated response
I know I'm getting the correct response, according to firebug: {"pace":"10:00"}
the code:
$('#run_distance').change(function() {
if ($(this).val() != '' && $('#run_time').val() != '')
{
$('#run_pace').val('Calculating Pace…');
[Code].....
how to update the #run_pace input field with the json response.

I'm trying to "combine" PHP and Javascript to a possible workaround.
I have a test form with two objects;
- a text field
- a drop down box; the items are stored in a MySQL table
In PHP I can adjust the items of the drop down box by submitting the form (button) and querying the results out of the database.
In Javascript I can do this without a button to submit the form.
But I have to include all possible values (>1000) for the items in the script...
Is there I way to combine the two (on leaving the text field, the items in the drop down box should being build from a MySQL database using the value of the text field...)
Can anyone help me out here?

I have a web form with several fields. If I copy & paste from a RTF document into a field, the javascript validation and field length are bypassed and cause the form to fail.

I am trying to create this form to update a field when a certain item is selected from a dropdown menu. I would like to have it to where when heat pump is selected from heating type, the AFUE field that originally has a value of 80 needs to be updated to 7.7. I would also like for the wording to be changed... Instead of having it say Current AFUE or HSPF, have it to where when a Single Speed Furnace or Variable Speed Furnace then it says AFUE below it, when Heat Pump is selected then it says HSPF, and if Electric Heat is selected do not have anything or even delete the whole field.

I'm creating a page that calculates a number depending on what value is inputted into a text field. I need to create some javascript that updates this new calculated value and outputs it next to the input field. Anytime the user changes the number, it recalculates the value. My calculation is currently being produced by PHP, however if I need to, I can create javascript as well to recalculate these numbers.

i am currently developing a cart for a website at my company.What i am attempting to do is update the grand total field dynamically as the product total (determined by quantity & price) are being populated.Each product in the cart is being generated by a foreach (php) reading from a mysql database.As the total values are not being prepopulated im not exactly sure what the logic would be to get the desired values.
I will also mention im relatively new to the whole web development area, i started begining of this year and feel i could still learn alot about the 'logic' of a computer.If anything is unclear about what i stated above feel free to request additional information.

I need to make a change to a web page that has lots of JQuery things in it, it appears. Not knowing anything about the actual use of JQuery, however, while I will start looking at the doc, can someone
help me with what to look for in a 4000+ line file to find out where the value is being set for the hidden field. I have been unable to identify this. There appears to be no onChange or onSubmit JavaScript call. I have been given this file with the need to figure this out right away, with a very tight timeline to make many changes, so this one item can't take the time required to start learning the whole of JQuery before I can make a change.

I have very basic javascript skills, just started looking into jQuery and jQueryTools to enhance my websites. I have been coding PHP for about 1.5 years.I have a php form with which users can update their purchase order before making a final confirmation and payment.
Thought it would be nice if, instead of using php for redirecting to a success/fail message in a separate php file and redirecting again back to the form with a 3 second delay, I could get a jQuery script to pop up with a success/fail message, so avoiding all the clumsy php redirecting and page refreshing.I've searched for plugins, but they all act on event listeners attached to a submit button or other clickable html element.Ive searched the net for ages and can't find an easily understood explanation and complete example, where a jQuery pop up notification is displayed in response to a php script executing a db update.

I've have a function to take the value entered in a form text box, add 50 to it and put the result in another text box.
When I enter 650.5 I get 700.5 exactly how I'd expect. But when I enter -650.5 instead of getting -600.5 I get -650.050 as though it is failing to parse the float due to it being negative. My understanding of parseFloat was that it recognises negative numbers. Is there a nice simple way to get this to work?

The following form validation script works, currently if one of the five fields are completed, a message appears the remaining field(s) must be completed etc. Although the information the user has inputted in the first field is cleared. How can this information be available, if there is one problem in the form it doesn't make sense that the user must re-input all the information again. I look forward to hearing your response,
function validate_form ( )
{
valid = true;

For instance, Box A has a blank entry and I enter in 5. Box B I enter in 6
so in Box C it should automatically give me 11 (if the code I put in is to
add box A and B). Then in Box D I put in 3 (say to subtract from A and B
combined) so then Box C adjusts to give me 8.
Don't worry about the math as that's all taken care of it, I just need to be
able to know how to update on the fly like this.
