JQuery :: Several Input Text Boxes - Reset Button That Acts Like The Form RESET Button
Oct 9, 2011
I have a table (not in a form) that has several input text boxes. I want to have a reset button that acts like the form RESET button. I thought I would use the following jQuery method:
Here's my reset button code:
Here's one of my table input lines:
I thought this would be simple, but I can't seem to figure out how to target the text that the user types into an input field before he/she decides to "reset" and start over.
I'm thinking that my problem is that I can't find the correct syntax for my line: $('input.firstname').value('')
Basically on this page [url] the second table - the one for layout - has got 2 buttons at the bottom, "show borders" which once clicked puts a jpg in the box and shows how the table would look like if it had borders, and the second button "reset text" that at the moment doesn't work, that it is supposed to bring back to the original content of the box. At the moment that button has a function that is clearly wrong. I have made some attempts of course.
I have a page where I use <DIV> to control the visibility a text input area. The text input is made visible only if the Other radio button is selected. That all works fine.
The problem I'm having is when I press the forms Reset )<input type=reset>) button, the visibility of the text area is not restored to the state it was at when the page first loaded so I end up with the text area being displayed even though the Other radio button in no longer selected (reset did clear it).
I thought I could solve this by using a <FORM onReset="forcehide()"> event handler but I can't figure out how to get the object id of the div. The div is defined as follows: Code:
I am using jquery.validate.js file to validate an input form, It works fine, my problem is the error messages are not get cleared while clicking the reset button in the form.
I have got a radio button group. A click event have to reset it that the first radio button is checked again. <input type="radio" name="msgtype" value="1" checked="checked" /> Gruß <input type="radio" name="msgtype" value="2" /> Wunsch <input type="radio" name="msgtype" value="3" /> Frage That doesn't work so far: $('#cleaner').click(function(){ $("input[name='msgtype']").filter("[value='1']").attr("checked","checked"); });
I am using AJAX to populate a <div>, which is working very nicely, except for one thing: My reset button in the resulting <formis dead.
When I put a breakpoint and trap the response in the javascript code, the returned html for the button looks like this: <input type="reset" value="Clear" />
When I look at the response in Firebug console, there are no slashes, so I don't know what's going on. It looks like this:
<input type="reset" value="Clear" />
The main thing is, it doesn't reset the form elements. Has anyone ever seen this behavior before?
Everythings working great except my Reset Filters Button. It is actually reseting the filters but it is supposed to reset the table and show all of the rows also. Can't figure out why its not reseting the table too.
if you want to see what it is doing you can go to
[URL]
Code: ****/ /** PRIVATE FUNCTIONS **/ function _TF_trimWhitespace(txt) { var strTmp = txt;
i need to implement a clear button to clear all the fields in the form, but i am thinking i can just use reset button.
<input type="reset" name="reset" value="CLEAR">
The first thought is that if there is default value reset and clear will become different. My understanding is that reset means to restore the original page before any edits by the user.
It seems like I can use reset button to implement clear javascript button.
I have created a dummy web page with three text boxes and three buttons, Enable Disable and Reset. The enable disable buttons work as expected but the Reset button does not.
<html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function clear(){ document.getElementById("myForm").reset(); } function disable() { document.getElementById('txt1').disabled=true; document.getElementById('txt2').disabled=true; document.getElementById('txt3').disabled=true; } function enable() { document.getElementById('txt1').disabled=false; document.getElementById('txt2').disabled=false; document.getElementById('txt3').disabled=false; } </script></head><body><table> <form id = "myForm"> First Name<input type = "text1" id = "txt1" size = "20"><br><br> Last Name<input type = "text2" id = "txt2" size = "20"> <br><br> Contact Number<input type = "number" id = "txt3" size = "15"><br><br> <input type="button" onclick="disable()" value="Disable" /> <input type="button" onclick="enable()" value="Enable" /> <input type = "button" onclick="clear()" value = "Reset"> </form></table></body>
I am trying to achieve something that I have seen on many forms throughout the web; I am currently learning JavaScript so please bare with my beginner status. So I have a form and on every input button, I want the value to disappear when clicking on it; and if no text is entered, the original value is returned..
So far I have this inside every input button and i'm beginning to struggle with 'the next step': onfocus="if(this.value=='Email')this.value=''"
Is there a simpler way to achieve this with multiple buttons rather than copying this into every button?
How to reset an input field to its default value, which is depend on another. There is a way to clear the input field but not resetting to its default value.
Example
I have 2 radio buttons. Depends of the radio button selection some other input fields are required. Those things are already done using the click function. It clears the input field. But I need to reset to its default value.
I have a page which allows editting of records. Question 15 involves one text field and four listboxes. The text field should control the listboxes based upon its own value.
If the text field has the value of "Yes" then the listboxes are active. But should the user type in "No", all listboxes should become disabled. Presently trying to get the first listbox to react to the text box value. Code:
how reset old entries data in input field?I have a search field where the results are live updated when typing in. The problem is if you type the same letters as earlier. Example: You have searched for "Conditioner" the next time you type "C" the word conditioner comes up in the browsers entries and the search function.Didn't understand? Try the searchfield on the webpage and try search for the word "conditioner". After you se the result, type "c" in the same field.
I'm using jQuery form plugin, but i want when when user clicks on a button to submit the form using the traditional submit, how can i reset the form to traditional one ?
I'm using the form validation and it's working great. But the form reset button, although it clears the form fields, does not clear the errors. My page header has this code so far:
[Code]....
I'm trying to understand how to implement the following in order for the reset button to do that:
var validator = $("#myform").validate(); validator.resetForm();
I'm not an experienced JS person but have a lot of other programming experience (vb, vba, mssql, delphi).
I have a form with two <button> elements. One button loads the page with the associated form data whilst the other triggers a download. IE6/7 does not handle <button> tags correctly. IE6 will submit all buttons regardless of which you click and uses the button content as the value, instead of the value as the value. IE7 submits just the clicked button, but still submits the content as the value, not the value.
To get around IE's issues with <button> I use JS to manipulate the DOM so hidden input fields are generated with the correct value and the button names are removed so they're not submitted at all.
This works, except in my specific situation for my download button. Because it triggers a download, the page you are on remains, and remains with the manipulated DOM, which means the form doesn't work properly anymore.
I would like to know if there's a trigger of some sort that would allow me to revert the DOM changes when the form is submitted but the page remains. I hope that makes sense. Oh, and there's no need to suggest using <input type="button" /> instead of <button>. That's not a solution.
