Refilling Form Fields After Losing Mouse Focus

Sep 26, 2011

In my work here there is an application that has recently had a plugin coded up for it, the plugin allows custom message boxes to be opened up by the user when they roll on the help icons. The boxes open automatically and then close as soon as the mouse focus rolls off their box area. The boxes support java script content and html etc so can be very customised. I have coded a user form with various data capture fields. I would like the data in the fields to be reloaded if the user accidentally rolls off the box (as this will close it and the behavious cannot be changed :-<)

I have used cookies and tested in browser and all the retreival and storage of the cookie data works fine. Problem is with this plugin app is that i cannot fit in the call to 'onload CheckForCookies()' anywhere - The boxes do not seem to appear as 'window opening events' What is way of Adding the call to checkforcookies() into my form loading - that does not depend on a window opening event? There are four or five fields and i would like them all to update with whatever was last in them when the messagebox opens - it is not an api/ browser generated messge box, rather it is a custom web widget of some sort and i do not have access to the source code at this time.

It is equally important to be able to create or refresh the cookie data for the fields when the user rolls off the box so they do not lose whatever info was typed in so far so i need to call like 'onunload SetAllCookies' Like i say i have the code to do the work, the problem is the functions are not being called as the behaviour of the little boxes does not trigger them as load / unload eventrs. I tested using 'onfocus' and this works but is nbo good as the user would only see the data they had 'lost' when they click on a field.

JQuery :: Preventing An Input From Losing Focus?

May 11, 2010

Basically I want to prevent a user from moving to another field if the current one is invalid (non-numeric).I've tried a few things that I though would do the job, I've also tried using the change event with the last line (resetting the focus to the current element) but no dice.

jQuery('.setupprice, .monthlyprice, .quantity','#config_dialog').live('focusout',function(e)
{
var val = parseFloat(jQuery(this).val());

[code].....

JQuery :: Cycle.js - Multiple Slideshows - And Timing - On Losing Window Focus

Nov 14, 2011

I've used the fantastic Cycle plugin on a couple of projects now, and it's worked really well.

I have four elements that use cycle, and I've used the timeout and delay options to have one box after another flip repeatedly.

This works well, so the first slide flips after 1 second, the second after 2 and so on, and then each slide continues to flip in turn.

Unfortunately, when I move to another browser tab or another window, then move back, returning focus to the window with the flip elements, the timing seems to go wrong. Each slide continues flipping, but they're no longer flipping one at a time.

My code runs as follows:

I'd like to see each one continue flipping in turn when I go back to the first tab.

Using OnChange And Focus() To Submit Form Fields

Oct 12, 2010

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]...

Setting Focus Automatically On Form Fields

Sep 29, 2006

There are many ways for setting focus on form fields. I'm actually looking for some code that automatically detects if there is any form on the page & then automatically sets the focus to the first field of the form.

No need of putting Form Name & Field Name in Javascript. Is there any way to do this ???

Validating 2 Form Fields And Setting Focus Not Working

Mar 5, 2006

I am trying to throw in some client-side validation to my php web form. My problem is that only one field is actually getting validated. Here is the code:

Form: onSubmit="return checkForm(this);"

script: function checkForm(form) {
var firstname = document.getElementById("wpFirstName").value;
var lastname = document.getElementById("wpLastName").value;

if (firstname == "") {
document.getElementById("firstNameError").style.display="inline";
document.getElementById("wpFirstName").select();
document.getElementById("wpFirstName").focus();
return false;
}else if (lastname == "") {
document.getElementById("lastNameError").style.display="inline";
document.getElementById("wpLastName").select();
document.getElementById("wpLastName").focus();
return false;
}
return true;
}

The if statement evaluating the last name field is the only statement that evaluates to true. It seems the first statment is bypassed. Any ideas? PS. the element with the id lastNameError/firstNameError is in a div tag.

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?

Jquery :: Load Losing The CRLF?

Aug 25, 2010

I am using JQuery to load data into a textarea element on a form. The data has CRLFs in it, and of course the textarea element supports that. However, they seem to get lost in the load.

Code:

var sURL = "AjaxFunctions.php?Act=QuoteComment&CommentID=" + sID;
$('#MainEdit').load(sURL);

I've tried replacing the CRLF with <BR> on the backend before returning the data, but that doesn't work. Is this just a limitation of the technology?

JQuery :: Ui Accordion Losing Links In IE6?

Apr 9, 2010

I've just set up an accordion using the simple version that comes with JQuery UI.It uses links inside h3s as the headers, and I noticed that links within the content divs had disappeared. The documentation at says - If you have links inside the accordion content and use a-elements as headers, add a class to them and use that as the header, eg. header: 'a.header'.I'm just struggling with the right way to do that. I've tried giving each 'a' a class of 'faq' and using :

Code:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#faq_accordion").accordion( { header: 'a.faq' },{ autoHeight: false } );

Document.form.submit() Doesn't Work For Large Form Fields

Mar 2, 2006

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?

JQuery :: Malsup's Form Plugin Uses .attr() For Disabled - IE7 Drops Form Fields W/ JQ Core 1.6.*?

Jul 11, 2011

We're using Malsup's form plugin v2.82 and jQuery core 1.6.2. We're having issues in IE7 where, on a form with file upload, form fields are being dropped before the form is submitted to the server.We tracked it down to the `fileUpload` function, specifically line 196 where each field in the form data has `.attr('disabled',false)` run against it. If we change this to`.prop('disabled',false)` it all works fine.I don't see a clearly marked place to submit bug reports for the form plugin, and wanted to verify that others see this as well,

CSS And Form Validation - Changing The Font Color Of Labels ONLY When Stop The Form From Submitting Due To Blank Fields

Nov 2, 2011

I'm having trouble changing the font color of my labels ONLY when I stop the form from submitting due to blank fields. I'm not sure whether if just changing my CSS will achieve what I want, or am I going to have to add somethig to my if else statement, or both? I would think I would need to change CSS to :

label.onfocus {
color:red;
}

but a little confused on what else.

The Mootool Adds The Pop Out Effect To A Form Box And The Enables The Nav Switch For 2 Boxes That Contain Different Form Fields For A Search Engine?

Sep 10, 2010

I have two js scripts running on my project at the moment, one is uses mootools and the other uses jquery-1.2.3min, both work but not if they are on the same page.The mootool adds the pop out effect to a form box and the jquery enables the nav switch for 2 boxes that contain different form fields for a search engine. Now I've been reading up on the two and have decided to favour jquery which means I have to reproduce the same effect in mootool but with my limited knowledge it's proven rather hard.The mootool code:

var isExtended = 0;
var height = 165;
var width = 240;

JQuery :: Form Fields - Keep The Form From Remembering Past Input?

Jun 17, 2011

I have a form that has a reset button, and when it's closed, the form is reset. However, at least in testing on my own machine, I notice that the form fields are remembering past input (on Firefox 4 anyway). Once this goes public, I don't want the form remembering anything in case the website is viewed on a public machine. How can I keep the form fields from remembering any past input?

Form Validation Query - Adding Extra Fields To A Form?

JQuery :: Run PHP Script After 4 Form Fields Entered And Form Not Submitted?

Nov 12, 2010

I am re-developing my website and want to use some Ajax/jQuery in it (so I am learning as I go) and I am not sure if this is possible so that is my first question:I have a registration form and I would like to know if after the person registering has completed their first and surname and the 2 sections of their postcode if I can use jQuery to run a PHP script to see if they are already registered before waiting for the form to be submitted and running a script then.I am thinking onkeyup (or similar) after the last field is completed but I don't know how that would work needing to also use 3 other field values.If this is possible, can anyone give me any ideas of examples that do this or how I can go about passing all the variables and running the scripts at the correct time.
