Multiple Form Actions - Javascript Required?

Apr 28, 2006

I have a simple SEARCH form which matches items from my supplier and delivers the results to the 'body' frame of my website. This works fine and here is the code.

<FORM ACTION="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" TARGET="body">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="partner" VALUE="xxxxx">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="partnerId" VALUE="xxxxx">
<INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN NAME="xxx" VALUE="xxxx">
<CENTER>
<P ALIGN=CENTER>
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME="xxxxxxx" SIZE="25" MAXLENGTH="256"><FONT COLOR="WHITE">..<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Go"><INPUT TYPE=RESET VALUE="Clear"></FONT>
</FORM></TD>

However what I would like to do is use the same SEARCH box information typed in to generate a second search at another supplier and deliver the results alongside in another frame. The frame part is easy enough but how can I get two Form Actions from one form?
I understand it cannot be done in HTML but it may be possible in Javascript.

W/Multiple Form Submit Actions

Jul 23, 2005

I am trying to have two form actions on submission using a
javascript. The first calls a php class (http://www.blah.org/test.php)
and the second adds data to a mySQL database via a php function call (<?
php echo $editFormAction; ?>. Both actions work; however, only the
second action in the fucntion runs. Here is the code:

<script language=javascript>
<!--
function But1()
{
document.form1.action = "http://www.blah.org/test.php"
document.SubmitAbstract.submit(); // Submit the page
document.SubmitAbstract.action = <?php echo $editFormAction; ?>;
document.SubmitAbstract.submit();
return true;
}
-->
</script>

In this example, the document.SubmitAbstract.action = <?php echo
$editFormAction; ?>; action works fine. If I reverse the order:

<script language=javascript>
<!--
function But1()
{
document.SubmitAbstract.action = <?php echo $editFormAction; ?>;
document.SubmitAbstract.submit();
document.form1.action = "http://www.blah.org/test.php"
document.SubmitAbstract.submit(); // Submit the page
return true;
}
-->
</script>

only the test.php file runs. Any ideas?

Turning Form Actions On And Off With Javascript Or Some Tother Method

Oct 28, 2000

Does anybody know how to turn off form actions please?

I have 2 types of users (members and non-members) using the same form action. This form has 4 buttons in total.

If the user is a member they have full access to all buttons.

If the user is a non-member they can only use 2 of the 4 buttons.

So, at the moment, when they are non-members and click on one of the members buttons, an OnClick event handler is added to the input type = "submit", which generates a new window with a document explaining to the user that they need to register.

There is no problem generating this window.

The problem is that the form specified in the form action still executes and the members page is still displayed.

So is it possible to turn off the form action in this instance so that the main page isn't refreshed/executed, or do I have to create different form actions for different users.

Surely there must be a way to prevent the form action from being triggered?

I realise I could simply not display the button for non-members, but I'd prefer to do so, as it allows them to see the features that members receive.

Multiple Actions For A Rollover

Aug 25, 2011

The goal of the file is that when it loads in a browser, the 1st image is displayed in the top left (image 7441805.gif), along with the following three titles to the right of the image, as listed below: Java Demystified OOP Demystified Data Structures Demystified

When you place the mouse over "Java Demystified," the 7441805.gif image should still appear (which it does)), and a new window should pop-up and stay on the screen displaying "10% Discount for Java Demystified" until the user decides to do away with the new window by clicking on the "X". The new window does appear for about less than a second , and then goes away (actually it continuously flashes on and off very quickly), which is not what I want.

When you place the mouse over "OOP Demystified," the 0072253630.jpg image should appear (which it does), and a new window should pop-up and stay on the screen displaying "20% Discount for OOP Demystified" until the user decides to do away with the new window by clicking on the "X". The new window does appear for about less than a second , and then goes away (actually it continuously flashes on and off very quickly), which is not what I want.

When you place the mouse over "Data Structures Demystified," the 7417436.gif image should appear (which it does), and a new window should pop-up and stay on the screen displaying "15% Discount for Data Structures Demystified" until the user decides to do away with the new window by clicking on the "X". The new window does appear for about less than a second , and then goes away (actually it continuously flashes on and off very quickly), which is not what I want.

All of the files are loaded on my laptop, which is using Vista, is 32bit, has the IE9 browser installed, and pop-ups are disabled. When I try to use Mozilla (version 6.0), I am unable to disable the pop-ups, and therefore can not even get any new windows to open.

JQuery :: Binding/stacking Multiple Actions To One Event On An Element At Two Different Times?

Jan 20, 2011

We know that multiple calls to $(document).ready(); in the same page is possible.

I have a situation where another team implemented a $('#element').live('click', function() { /* Do this */} ); call on #element. I cannot modify this code, but I need to take an additional action on the same element on the same event. So, two actions will occur when #element is clicked.

I tried making $('#element').live('click', function() { /* Do that */} ); but this call does not fire.

It needs to be .live() since #element is being dynamically added.

Is there any way to add more actions to the same event on #element?

I have a form with 4 select boxes. At least one of them must be used during the submission event.I cannot get the logic straight that will enable this to happen.

This ensures that when only one select box is chosen, the form validates, however, it also validates if no boxes are selected. What's the most efficient way of doing this?

Help With Required Fields Javascript

Jul 23, 2005

I have a form that has a few required fields and also an "agree
to terms" checkbox that must be required. I have used Javascripts for
both functions individually, but I need a little help in combining
them. Can someone help me combine these two scripts so they both work
on the same page, with <FORM METHOD=POST onSubmit="return
checkrequired(this)" etc., checking for required fields and making
sure the agree-to-terms button is checked? Code:

Two Form Actions Not Working Together?

Feb 10, 2010

I have the following function - where I can get one of the conditions to work, but not both together. Here's the code:

function test_function() {
$('#form_field_name').focus();
window.location = window.location + "#form_field_name";
}

Basically when clicking an error link, I want to focus onto the form field, and then move to the anchor itself on the page. One of these will work at a time, but not both and I'm not sure why.

JQuery :: Form Submission To Two Actions

Oct 12, 2010

I've got a form that I need to go to two different places. First, I need it to submit a portion (but not all) of inputed data to one url (url.php). If that is successful, I need it to submit another portion of the inputed data to another url (url2.php). The trick is, I need the information from some fields to go to both places, but with different names.

Here's what I'm doing:
$(function() {
$('form').submit(function() {
return false;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'url.php',
data: $('.string').serialize(),
success: function(){
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'url2.php',
data: 'firstname='+$('#Contact0FirstName').val()+'&'+'lastname='+$('#Contact0LastName').val()
});
}});
});
});

I have the information I need to go to url.php serialized by class (.string). Then, I try to make a string out of the data for url2.php. What seems to be happening the form is submitting ALL fields to url.php, ignoring the serialized string I told it to use, and then submitting ALL fields to url2.php, again ignoring the string I told it to use.

HTML Form With Differing Actions Depending On Button Pressed?

Mar 15, 2010

I have a form, and i want two alternative submit links done as <a> links.Essentially, one will 'save changes' and remain on the same page, the other will 'save and preview' the final content.I've been playing for a while and can't seem to get it to workIf i just use one button and set the form action as normal all works fine.I'm told that i can set the form action within a javascript function and submit the form from there, but the problem is that clicking the link now just goes to the 'href' on the save button without submitting the form. (I believe the href is still required to make a working link).My code is as follows (ive simplified it to the essential components being used, theres also some php bits in the action being set) :

Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function docSave()

JS: Two Sets Of Required Fields In One Form

Jul 23, 2005

I've been trying to create two different sets of required fields in
one form and to use a

radiobutton as sort of a switcher between these sets.

In my HTML form there are two radiobuttons with values 'Via Email' and
'Printed Brochure'.

If a user checks 'Via Email' radiobutton, he/she has to fill out Email
and Name fields

only, if it's radiobutton 'Printed Brochure' is checked, a user has to
fill Email, Name

and ALSO Address field.

I use this script below, but it doesn't seem to work, and I can't get
it why.... Code:

Validate Required Multiselect And Checkbox On Form?

May 31, 2009

I need to do a clientside check of a form to see if a "required" multiselect list and a checkbox have been left blank or not. To clarify, the user is required to select either one or more options from the multiselect list, the checkbox, or a combination of both.

What they can't do is leave both of them blank. Both the multiselect and the checkbox pass values to a PHPList script on the server as if they were one multiselect with the name "attribute17[]".

***Disclaimer - I am a total javascript noob and am piecing together examples from several days (and long nights) of googling.***

I'm dealing with a very long subscribe form, and so far I've been successful with figuring out the code to validate emails, select dropdowns, and checkboxes. This combination multiselect and checkbox is the last piece of the form that is giving me trouble. Hopefully somebody here has a solution.

For simplicity I've reduced the javascript and the form down to just the part I'm still having trouble with. Here is a piece of the javascript that I'm trying to use:

Code:
<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
function checkform() {
if(document.subscribeform.elements["attribute17[]"].value == "")
{
alert("Please select your Primary Work Locations");

Creating Required Fields For A Contact Form?

Apr 2, 2009

It's beginning to get confusing as some code seems very complicated. I simply want four fields to be mandatory when filling out the form - so if one or more is not filled in, an alert appears saying 'Please fill out all required fields' (or something to that extent) before it will process. I understand that I need to include Javascript within the Head secion of the page and corresponding html and javascript within the contact form itself.Required Fields are: Name, Address, Area Code and Phone.<div id="main"><p>Please feel free to contact us with any query. see the <a href="services.html">Services</a> page.<br />All fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required.</p>

JQuery :: Validate Required Fields Before Form Submit?

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.

JQuery :: Disable Submit Button If All Required Fields Not Filled In Form?

Aug 18, 2010

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.

Radio Button Validation - Form That Has 4 "required Fields" That Validate Using JS

Jan 7, 2011

I have a form that has 4 "required fields" that validate using JS. I am now trying to add a 5th "required field" (the difference is that this field is a "radio button input as opposed to a text input).

I have it working so that when the 1st radio button is selected, the form will go through. However, when the 2nd radio button is selected, it comes up with the "please fill in all required fields" error.

Here is the JS I have so far:

HTML Code:

I tried adding the 2nd radio button value like this:

HTML Code:

(document.indiv_reg.skill[0].checked =="") || (document.indiv_reg.skill[1].checked =="") But when I do that, then even when the 1st radio button is selected it comes up with the "please fill out all required fields error".

PHP Code:
