View 8 RepliesI 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('')
I'm looking to have a lightbox pop up when a user clicks the Back button in their browser rather than just navigating back. The purpose is to ask a question with a Yes/No answer, and if they click No, I allow them to go back. The only thing I've found anything like this is the onUnload event, but that doesn't prevent them from going back. How should this be handled?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a script that uses the IF statement to see wether or not a user clicked the back button to come to a page, and then if it's true to not let the page load and kick them back X number of pages (say 4) This is what I have so far:
<script language="JavaScript"><!--
if javascript:window.history.back == 1
{
javascript:window.history.back(4);
return false;
}
//--></script>
what does the value of a reset button contain?
(a)button object
(b)button label
©button type
(d)reset property
(e)button name
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?
<html>
<body>
<input type="text" value="">
<input type="reset" value="reset"/>
</body>
</html>
why is my reset button not resetting the text box?
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;
[Code].....
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.
View 11 Replies View Relatedi 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 need a button that not only resets what is typed in the textarea but also hides all shown tables...[code]...

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am wondering how Back, Forward browser button works for iframes. Does it bring back/forward iframe or top window? I remember I had before a problem because I wanted to bring back iframe and not top window as it did. But today I tested my Facebook app and was surprised to see it works as I need which means it brings back/forward iframe window and not top. Is it possible that Facebook has some javascript code which does that or is this normall behaviour?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a graphic with a rollover for site navigation on each page. I
put the page to go back to in the rollover javascript.
My question is, is it possible to put in some code that will refer the
visitor back to whatever page they came from rather than one I
specify?
The rollover is combined with a tooltip script to make matters fun
(below). However, I'm quite happy to lose the tooltip to have the link
perform as a back button.
<a href="../index.asp"
onmouseover="document.images['link1'].src=img2.src;
showtip(this,event,'Back to home page');"
onmouseout="document.images['link1'].src=img1.src; hidetip()";><img
src="bhome.gif" name="link1" border=0></a>
how do i make the page go all the way to the top after you press the back button?
for example, you would go to page 1 and you scroll mid-way, then you press a link to page 2. then you press the back button on page 2 and takes you back to page 1 but it brings you back to the section where you scrolled mid-way.
is there any way to make it so it will automatically bring you to the top of the page. ive seen it on other sites.
I am doing a javascript back button within my form
<input type=submit value="Back to previous page" class=header onClick="history.go(-1)">
for some reason it is submitting the form instead of going back a page --
why would this be?
after hitting 'back' button I'm taken to spot on page where I was, but I'm being asked to do the opposite -- take user to the top of the page, after hitting 'back' button... when I look up this issue, most people complain of the opposite - that the browser takes them to to top of the page after hitting 'back' button...;-) [URL] is there a way with JavaScript to force page to go to the top of the page when you navigate to a back via 'back' button?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe site that I'm currently working on is related to a computer game, and I'm creating an interface similar to the game using js for rollovers and imagery changes.
However, one thing that web browsers have that the game doesn't is a "Back" button. I don't want to disable it--I hate when sites do that--but I want to makes sure that button changes that happen going forward also happen going backward.
That said:
1: Is there any way to force a function to run when the back button is pressed? And if not...
2: Does the body onLoad event work when the page is returned to using the back button?
Is there a way in IE to trap when the back button is pressed to do things like prompt the user to save or do some function other than going back?
