I am using jQuery AJAX to submit a form. When the data has been validated successfully and processed, I want to clear the form, but I am unsure how. I have been trying to make it work for a few hours now.
I am showing status messages in the container below:
When everything was successful, it looks like this:
And here is the simple code I use to clear the text fields:
What I need is a way to check if everything was successful and if so, then run the code above. I tried to do it in a few ways, but it kept clearing regardless of the status.
I have a page with 5 sets of form fields. Each field set has a checkbox that if checked will allow users to utilize it. I want to clear the given field set when the user un-checks the check box. As you can see in the code below this method will make for a very long and cluncky script, I would like to make it more generic.
Code: <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function closed_changed(day) {
[Code].....
it should call closed_changed(), which sees if it's ticked/checked, if it is it calls clear_open() and sets the four open related input elements to empty/blank (because a shop can't be open and closed at the same time). works fine in firefox (pc and mac) and safari. not ie7. why not? (the intended clear does happen but only when another subsequent closed box is ticked; it works on the previous day which was ticked; so it's lagging one behind)
I've read a few solutions to this, but none seem to fit what I'd like to do. I'm quite new to JavaScript, so I'm trying to learn various solutions to problems and also what can and can't be done.
What I'd like to know is can you, on submit, check all the form values on a page, or indeed within a specific form on a page, for their default values, and if any still have their default values as the text within that box, clear that value.
So using some generic form values as an example, if I had a form that had three text fields Name, Email, and Phone, all by default populated by their respective names, if someone changed the value of Name to "Adenv" but left the other two, on submit the script would change the values to:
With *blank* indicating a blank field. Is this possible?
I am trying to use jquery: validation plugin by Jörn Zaefferer. Which works really well I have to say. The one limitation I am trying to work around is how I can run validation for required fields before I submit a form. At the moment I have to submit the form before I see the error messages for required fields I would like to see them prior as the user tabs through the form.
I'm using mailchimps signup box (they don't have a decent forum to ask on) on my website and want to adjust the submit button and change it to a normal link. Here's the button that submit's the form:
I have this order form where the customers can change the quantity by intput in a text field.I would like to have the text field changed with select fields, but doing so in the form, the script is not doing anymore.Can anyone have a look and tell me what to change in the scritp to accept select fields in place of the text fields.
How do I disable the submit button if all required fields in a form are not filled in? Say I have a form with Name, Age,message, and email. Name, message and email must be filled in or else the submit button will not show or will be disabled and then enabled once filled. If the fields are filled in then the submit button will show. If the fields are filled in but then one is deleted then the submit button will hide. Ideally if I can have it disabled that will work, if not I will settle on hide at this point.
I am having a problem with the submit() method that is driving me nuts. I'm using document.form.submit() with large text fields (approx. 2000 characters) and am getting a "Invalid Syntax" error. If I do the same thing with a text field of under 1500 characters, it works fine.
Is there some size limit here that I don't know about?
I have a form with two input fields - 'name' & 'research'. What I'd like is for 'name' to be cleared when the user clicks in 'research' & visa versa. I've tried to do this by implementing the code in Sitepoint's excellent new DHTML Utopia article, but without success. I'm guessing that I should be using the onblur event, but am not sure how to go: Code:
I have a multi-page form which will (once it is functional and prettied up) be added to our site to allow prospective students to calculate their estimated cost of attending.
Everything works beautifully except the Room and Board area. The code:
<?php if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { $errors=0; Room and Board primaries
[Code]....
The Javascript portion works fine. The items display only when they are supposed to. However, the form fields within the Javascript affected areas are not passing values to the PHP form handling on submit.
I used this exact same piece of Javascript on another page of the form and it works perfectly. I even tried to copy and paste the code from the other page into this one and modify the content to no avail.
I have created a web page loaded from MySQL and PHP.It contains a text field, two list boxes and a hidden field for items moved between the list boxes.When I submit the form it send the text field and the last list box item moved but NOT the hidden text field
My script is designed to show a simple question and the user submits the answer using onchange via the tab key. If the answer is correct the next question appears and so on. But if it's wrong there's an alert and the user stays at that question and has another go to enter a correct answer to move on. It works well as long as user gets answer right. If they enter a wrong answer I'd like that answer box to clear and be focussed (ie cursor in place). Problem is, using the tab key has already sent the cursor off to highlight the address bar! I can get it to work if each answer box has a submit button and I use onclick but I really want to change the submit function to a keystroke, pref TAB.
Code: <HTML><HEAD> <SCRIPT language=javascript type=text/javascript> function thetests(){ document.theform.prob1.focus(); } [Code]...
Am integrating a Barclays epdq shopping cart into an existing website, part of the regulations with this system is that you can only submit from one 'allowed url'. To enable access from multiple url's I need to create a 'jump page'.
This needs to be a simple page that takes any variables posted to it and re-posts them (onload) onto the epdq shopping cart.
The problem is I am unable to populate the form dynamically and submit onload. I have tested and it all works fine if hardcoded. :confused:
Is it possible to submit a dynamically generated form using javascript?
The problem is that when you click the link, the page simply reloads to a blank page with the only code being the hidden field. This is not what I want, I want the hidden field code to be passed along, and then for the form to submit. So, what should have is that the hidden field code is added, and then the form submits.
On this page http://bit.ly/gAajO3 I have a comment form and would like the input and textarea contents to turn to blank when a user clicks on them, however this is not working for me. Would like to know what is going wrong if someone can spot it.Also on submit I want the input and textarea to be cleared if their value is 'Please type here'. This is working on the name input and textarea, however it seems the email field is not being cleared,
I spent several hours struggling with dynamic form fields added with appendChild or innerHTML not POSTing on submit in Firefox. The only way I found to make it work is to append any created fields to a DIV within the form. Code:
I want to use a text link to submit a form and get the POST values instead of an ugly submit button which is difficult to style. I thought it would be simple but I can't do it - whats the problem with this .js?
I have the following code that I'm using to cycle through each element in a form field, and clear whatever text is in it. If the user clicks out of the field without typing anything then the script is supposed to return to whatever value it started with (e.g. "Enter your name..."). If the user does type something, then it stays in the field even when they click out of it:
There are two input fields in a form, but only one of them is required, they are not required at the same time. Either A or B is required. ( A is required OR B is required). In other words, a user can input data to field A, or he can input data to filed B, but he can not input data to Both A and B at the same time. How to implement this constraint in Jquery form validation?
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).
