JQuery :: Skip The Form Validation To Specific Controls?
Aug 4, 2010
I want to validate my forms when clicking only on submit button. Here is my code.
[Code]...
The problem is it fires the validation to every button in the form. how can I do the validation only for the submit button and skip the validation to other button clicks?
I've an input field in the form which is displayed based on the user selection. Initially it is set to 'display:none' and I do have a validation rule for that field.
How do I skip validation on this hidden input field and only validate when its displayed on the page.
I am using the validate plugin with the defaultvalue plugin (empty fields given a default value and class of empty), and would like to use it together with the validator plugin. Is there a way to mark required fields with only the default value (and class empty) as invalid on submit? E.g.: First_name field is required by validate, has a default value of "Enter your first name" and class of "empty" - how can I get the validator to mark this as invalid?
I'm trying to implement a validation in my form, but that should not be bound to an specific field. in fact, I have three input type=text, and I need at least one of them to be filled (like a conditional 'required').
In another thread I found that a good way to show and hide parts of a form based on previous entries would be as follows: function showhidefield (method) { var hideablearea = document.getElementById("hideablearea"); var hideablearea2 = document.getElementById("hideablearea2"); var hideablearea3 = document.getElementById("hideablearea3");
I know how to use javascript to validate that the forms are infact filled but how do I make it so that it doesn't scan the hidden forms. The only way I could think of would be a huge bunch of if statements. Is there any other way to do this?
I have a slider set up that navigates fine using 'next' and 'prev' buttons. There are 14 slides and I have 5 buttons at top that I need to point to specific slides in the layout. Content is static and there will always be 14 slides, and the links will always link to the same slide.So I can manually set IDs for those slides and I can also manually designate each link to go to whatever slide... but I'm not sure how to move forward.My existing slider code is very basic:
Let say I have the following form. I need to put the error message of the checkbox a bit differently from the other element. The point is that I don't want the error message between the checkbox and the text. Let say I have:
Name: [textbox] error here (required) Email: [textbox] error here (required + email) Interests: (at least 2 checked)
How can I bypass the validation for a specific email address? Let's say "if the user submits abc@test.com" then I do not want to validate this address and accept it as it is.
I have a form with multiple fieldsets which are visible conditionally. There are three submit buttons "Abandon", "Save" and "Save & Continue". Each button should validate specific controls of the form and submit it. I tried setting "onsubmit: false" and checking for "$('#myForm').valid ()" on click of these buttons., but that validates all controls of the form.
I am trying to display validation error messages when form validation fails. Currently it does display the error messages but then disappears straight away. How can I stop the page from refreshing when validation fails? I have return false in my code when validation fails but still having same problem. Currently I have only done the validation for the full name only. The error msg is showed in:
This is in regards to Jrn Zaefferer's plug in.How do you customize input validation so that I can remove foullanguage?So that first name or last name doesn't have "fck you" or something
I'm using the Validation plugin for JQuery and was wondering if there was a function to submit the form without causing it to validate the form. I have a table with a list of radio-buttons and above that is a drop down list of states. The drop down list of states is used to filter the table rows and when the selected item changes it posts-back to the server (via $("#frm").submit()). I don't want this to cause any validation to occur. Is there another function I can call besides submit(), or some other method?
Site in question:On the 3rd step of this form, I want to add a "SKIP" button that will send the user to the 5th step. No clue how to do thisjavascript file:
I want to loop through an array called "otherBox" using .each(), but I want to skip the element that is equal to the variable "box". When i run the code, it does work, but doesn't skip any elements. Here is my code:
I need to validate two forms containing multiple input fields but want just one error message if any of the fields are left blank, the page is required to submit the users details (registration form). Also if any of these fields are left blank i don't want to be able to go to the next page on clicking the submit button
$(".DdsConstant").each(function (index, element) { var text = $(element).html(); $(element).html(text + ":"); }); The above code works for me, but I want to be able to skip the elements that already have a colon or question markin it.Example: Search Name: or Perform this daily? should be skipped. But Search Name should be changed to Search Name:. I will put question marks in manually. I have tried a few things and done some searches but no luck.
On submit of a form I want to check some fields. I cannot get JQuery to do it.

The alert never fires. I prefer to refer to a specific element in a specific form, hence the line $("form[name="+theForm+"]:input[name="+checkFields[i]+"]"); What am I doing wrong and how can I do this???
How can I target a specific <div> to display the result of a form? I would like to be able to specify the target div on a per-form basis, and have the target independent of the <div> that contained the actual form.
So for example I may have a form in <div id="left"> <form>.....</form></div>, that I want to post the data to somepage.php, and load somepage.php into <div id="right">
I have a (hopefully) simple question.I want to select all buttons on my page except the ones which are inside a specific form.lets say I have following abstract pageconstruction:
I have a script that is supposed to: Make sure that the user selects a performance from a select field Make sure that the user hasn't selected a performance that contains the string "SOLD OUT" in its value Here is the code I am using:
I am not new to jQuery but I just want to ask the best way to approach this. Basically I have a textfield in which the user is going to type in a number (for example 20) and after this textfield lose focus jQuery will be triggered to create whatever number of textfields the user put before (in this case 20).
So, to illustrate: How many users do you have: [ 2 ](and after the field above lose focus, the below will be generated)
I'm looking to make a form that could potentially span over several steps (or pages) and have the details submitted to an email address. How can I split the form into multiple steps, so step 1 includes 5 questions, click next, then step 2 includes the next 5 questions, then on submit it emails the details (from both step 1 & 2) to a specific email address in one email?
If anyone could point me in the right direction or give me a hand that would be great. I've spent ages looking for some answers.
I have my website www.gebcn.com. If you view source you will see all that I have done, but more importantly my problem. I have the JS code at the top there and I am unable to W3C validate my HTML because of the JS. I am using XHTML strict and would like to stay using it.
The JS I have at the top is my form validation code. I am able to do any validating that I need with this "snippet" of code, I have shrank it from my library version just to use for this newsletter. Until now W3C validating was not important now for some reason it is and I am faced with this problem.
I am not a Javascript guy more of a HTML/CSS guy and I can manipulate JS to suit my needs.
<problem> I have tried to make this "snippet" of JS code an external file but receive multiple errors with the JS calling for the FORM NAME as it is not on the same page. The form NAME=NEWSLETTER is another problem, as W3C says I am unable to use attribute "NAME" in this location. <problem> I would like to keep the JS close to how it is now as I have a library to use this JS over and over again.
What is happening is $(this) is no longer based on .expand being the (this) that is clicked.
like if i have a button SOMEWHERE randomly on the page with this
<div onclick="Minimize('_alerts');">Click Here</div> this will minimize alerts but because the (this) in minimize function doesn't actually point to the right button that I want to add a class to.
Is there a way to modify the minimize function so that it finds the <div id="mytoggle"><ul> <li class="expand boxminimize" rel="_alerts"> using the rel toggle, and then changes the class of the li from expand boxminimize to boxexpanded??
just like the .expand click function I posted on the top of the post that works?
I'm developing sort of a do-all javascript required form field check (which was developed long after the pages were developed). It uses a lot of getElementsByTagName so it's creating several NodeLists. One of these nodelists contain all the divs, those showing (display:block) and those hidden (display:none). The function checks only the divs that are visible.
This is my first experience with NodeLists so the first thing I tried was removeNode() on the hidden divs. This doesn't work because when you return with required field errors and try to make the hidden fields appear I believe there are errors because the hidden divs were removed from the DOM.
I've tried a few other work-a-rounds but it's getting to be afternoon and I'm turning to you guys for help! Is it possible for me to just skip forward to the next Node in the NodeList? I've tried nextSibling but I guess I'm calling it on the wrong Node.
