JQuery :: Serialize Method Isn't Serializing Form Elements That Are Added To The DOM After The Page Load
Jun 24, 2011
I'm having a problem where the serialize method isn't serializing form elements that are added to the DOM after the page load. Specifically, when the user clicks on a button some elements are displayed in a dialog that are generated from my server and returned via AJAX. I'm converting from Prototype and didn't run into this problem.
.serialize() does not descend into anything other than a form to find inputs, and so to serialize inputs that are not in a form you must specify a selector that grabs each input. I just want to make sure I haven't erred.
//Standard usage $('form').serialize(); //looks for all the named input elements that are inside the element, serializes them //Without a form $('someDivOrTrOrOtherElementNotAnInput').serialize(); //does not serialize any inputs that are inside the element [Code]...
I have a simple problem and cant seem to figure it out. I have a function in the body.load function that is supposed to highlight rows in my table when i mouse over them. When u refresh the page, the function works properly. When I dynamically add new rows to the table using ajax, I get no response.
I am usingjquery-simplemodal.js plugin for displaying a modal form. My form is a separate .jspf file, being incuded into my main page. Here is my code:
function showPopup(popupContentId) { //wrap the content div with the border and show the dialog with the following params $.modal("<div class='layerBorderOuter'><div class='layerBorderInner'>" + $(popupContentId).html() + "</div></div>", {modal:true, [Code]...
I have a grid that I'm adding rows to that include form text input boxes using addRowData. I know I can use the "editable:true" for that but I'd rather not at this time. Anyway I have the <div id=list1></div> surrounded by a <form></form>. Also statically I have a couple of text input boxes and a submit button. When I press the submit button the only parameters that show up in the POSTED data are the static ones. Is there a way to get the form elements "registered" with the form? I know I can always use javascript to extract the data and save it via an ajax call, but if there is a way to do it "correctly"
Example var myRow = {id:"0",call:"<input name='callt"+boxNo+"' id='call"+boxNo+"' class='calls' type='text'/>",amount:"<input name='amt"+boxNo+"' id='amt"+boxNo+"' type='text' value='"+defaultDep+"'/>",residual:"",calculate:"<input type='button' class='buttons' id='b"+boxNo+"'/>"}; $("#list1").addRowData(boxNo,myRow);
I am using jquery to copy a DIV containing some form elements. The copy is appended to the DIV in another DIV to allow an unlimited number of form elements to be sent. The problem is that none of the copy DIVs are being sent by the browser Firefox. There is some chatter via google, but nothing conclusive. I see the DIVs show up in Firebug. Could this be jquery related?
I use $().load() to place an HTML snippet from the server into a dialog box which i then need to position relative to the size of the element which has just had the HTML loaded into it. When the main HTML page DOM is ready, I hide() the dialog box, and then use fadeIn() to show with various click() events. I have managed to position the dialog box in the centre of the screen given that there is no content loaded.
However, it seems that when I load the new content into the dialog box the new dimensions aren't taken into account untill the next time load() is called.
Is there a way to get the new dimensions of the element before the dialog is shown in order to position it centre screen?
Here is my code:
function showDialogBox(sender) { var width = $(document).width(); var height = $(document).height();
Is it faster/more beneficial to have two snippets of code be generated by php at 2 different urls and then have a load function for each url? Or have the two snippets on one page, surrounded by id's and then load them that way?
I have a single webpage that contains information on all 50 U.S. states. There are 50 links at the top to jump down to the state you want, and at the bottom of the information for each state a Back to Top link.
I'm making the Back to Top link into something more complex, and it will require three or four lines of code.
So that I don't have to repeat the code 50 times, and create a burden when I need to edit it, I want to place it in a .js file and call it x. Then below the information for each state I'll simply have:
Does calling code from a .js file 50 times slow down the page load? Which method would load faster?
I am using the jquery validation plugin, i am wanting to place all the rrors in one div at the top of the form - which works. The problem is that the first time I submit the form (in FF for MAC) the classes that get assigned to the form elements get added, and removed real quickly. (I have a bg color of red on the form, so i can see a flicker basically) - works just fine in safari. has anyone seen anything like
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'm trying to have a scroll function (scrollIntoView(true)) that scrolls to an element created by JS. This isn't working because when I use document.createElement the element's html doesn't show up in page source so I can't find it using document.getElementById.
I have cleated a bit of code that will dynamicly add a new line to a form so the use can add an infinat number of entires for this element.The code adds the form elemetns in IE and FF ok but when i click the submit button it does not submit the information from the dynamicly added elements in FF.Oddly enough IE works fine!Here is the code:
I have problem getting dynamic form elements values created with .append method when submitting the form with POST method in Firefox. It seems to work only on Internet Explorer.
I have created a jquery sortable list page where the user can move and drop elements between lists. The lists are <li>. how to get serialize to work. Here is a link for a serialize script that I am trying to use. [URL] I program in classic asp and don't understand javascript particularly well.
Is it possible to use serialize with just one form field? I am constructing a url to send with $.post and I need to convert the spaces and special characters of a field. Currently this does not seem to work: var news_letter_email = $('#newsletter_email').serialize();
This is my first post, and I'm only just learning jqury/JavaScript.
i have a form I'd like to send via POST method to a second php page, i have all the validation etc working fine, I'm struggling with the on Submit handler.. once the form is validated...
can anyone please tell/direct me how i can post this form to a php page that will do the data insertion?[code]...
I'm using $("form").serialize(), and then doing an AJAX request.JQuery automatically replaces spaces with the + character.(I couple replace the + character with a space on the server side, butI want the users to be able to enter the + character when they submit forms.)
The code is supposed to generate this: PS: This is generated by a PHP Function that the Ajax Load Method Calls.

I've been noticing a lot of problems when loading these stuff, Sometimes I have to remake the HTML Tags because its not showing anything. Is there any option? I want it to load EXACTLY how it is, I don't know if this is some kind of protection for bad code, but if it is I would like to disable. But also, this code is really clean. no problem, I don't know.
In the examples for live() and delegate(), the selectors match at least one element that already exists. Will either of these commands work on elements for which there is no match at all on page load?
In my case, I want to bind a keyup event to the textareas that jeditable creates. I could probably create custom plug-in (to the plug-in :) to do the job, but I'd like to use live or delegate if they would work.
