InnerHTML And DOM Elements In Safari

Mar 29, 2005

I'm facing a problem with Safari (Mac) when trying to switch 2 elements innerHTML's and looking for the elements they include with getElementById.

The browser seems to be unable to find the "divA" element when switching twice. When switching three times, the alert message is correct, the element is found. Do someone has any idea about this or any tip to overpass this problem.

var tempHtml = document.getElementById(el1).innerHTML;

document.getElementById(el1).innerHTML = document.getElementById(el2).innerHTML
document.getElementById(el2).innerHTML = tempHtml;
}
function getElement(elt) {
var myElement = document.getElementById(elt);
alert (myElement);

OnClick InnerHTML/disabled Not Working In IOS Safari?

Apr 14, 2011

I have a form that is shown depending on some criteria. If the criteria are met, I use innerHTML to swap it in. When a button is pressed, the info on the form is checked with javascript - if it passes the check I use innerHTML again to change the button to '...'.

This works fine on Firefox and Safari - the problem is that it doesn't work when I test it with my iPad (iOS 4.3). The button stays the exact same and the javascript seems to stall on the line where I execute the innerHTML. Up to this point, innerHTML on mobile Safari seemed to work the exact same way as MacOS Safari. On my iPad, the innerHTML swaps out this button if the event is triggered from a different button, but not from id="submitbutton" itself.I tested another method - disabling the button. Same issue - works on MacOS Safari/Firefox but not on mobile Safari on my iPad when using onClick from itself.

code snippets
Form (it is a string since using innerHTML=)
...form content...
<div id="submitarea" class="center">

Firefox - Safari Return Opposite 'disabled' Values On Startup

Aug 12, 2009

This has me completely stumped. I have a multiple select form element in my HTML document that needs to be manipulated by two different sets of context-sensitive controls. One set of controls is marked up as follows:

<div id="divControls1" name="divControls1" style="display:none">
<form id="fControls1" name="fControls1">
<input type="button" id="btnAdd" name="btnAdd" value="Add" onClick="addStuff();" />
<input type="button" id="btnEdit" name="btnEdit" value="Edit" onClick="editStuff();" disabled />
<input type="button" id="btnDelete" name="btnDelete" value="Delete" onClick="deleteStuff();" disabled />
</form>
</div>

When I load this page into Safari (on Mac OS X) and set the style of divControls1 to "display:block," I have an enabled "Add" button, a disabled "Edit" button, and a disabled "Delete" button, just as I expected. (I monitor selections in a multiple selection element to turn the buttons on and off.) But when I load this page into Firefox (also Mac OS X), all three buttons are disabled at startup. My page runs a function called startup() when the body fires onLoad. To try to troubleshoot the problem, I wrote this line at the beginning of the startup() function:

function startup() {
alert (document.getElementById("btnAdd").disabled);
...

When I run this code in Safari, the alert returns "false" (not disabled), just as I would expect, and intended. However, the same code in Firefox (Mac OS X) returns "true" (disabled) ... but the same code in Firefox (WinXP) returns "false"!

Comma Separated Values - Form That Gets Values That A User Has Selected From A List Menu Field

Jul 6, 2009

I have a form that gets values that a user has selected from a list menu field, that end up like this added to the URL:[url]

Instead of the Field being mentioned more than once, how can I have it where it could mention the field once with the values coma separated eg:[url]

Would I use JS to change the URL? or VBscript?

Form Won't POST From Innerhtml?

Dec 20, 2011

So I load a form through a XMLHttpRequest and set the content of a div to the returned data, which contains a form, problem is I can't submit this form when it is requested through Javascript, but I can submit it when it is standalone.

I am thinking that this is probably a security setting in the browser to prevent XXS attacks? But I am not sure, why doesn't it work? It is nothing fancy just a regular old HTML POST form and a Javascript AJAXey request.

Form In <p> Not Getting Deleted With InnerHTML

Dec 22, 2005

I am trying to update a <p> tag using the .innerHTML property. The <p> tag is set-up as

<p id="p_id">
<form id="form_id">
<![CDATA[Other form stuff here]]>
</form>
</p>
And my JavaScript

document.getElementById('p_id').innerHTML = 'my message here.'
alert(document.getElementById('p_id').innerHTML);
When I call that JS code, it adds "my message here" in front of the form and only alerts "my message here", not the form code.

When I add text by default in front of the form code, that gets replaced but the form still remains.

InnerHTML, Div's And <form> Tags

Dec 22, 2002

I'm having a bit of trouble getting around forms, innerHTML and div's.

What i'm trying to accomplish is simple done, and i've found a solution to the problem but not one i'm happy with.

ok, so to get down to it...

I have a form, with two radio boxes, 1 select box and 1 submit button.

Now, while a certain value in the select box is selected I have an additional input box appearing for further information/input (duh!).

Anyways, the input field appears, looking spiffy...but, when i submit the form, the input field is ignored.

Now, the way i'm doing it is by using innerHTML and the <div> tag. Code:

Form Tags Stripped Out In FF With InnerHTML

Jun 8, 2006

I have a piece of code which replaces the contents of a div using
innerHTML

e.g. this.targetDiv.innerHTML = '<form name="test" id="test1"> in form
</form>'

This works fine in IE but FF(1.5.04) strips out the <form> and </form>
tags.

I know there are some differences in how these browsers handle
innerHTML but I can't seem to find anything on this specific problem.

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?

Appending InnerHTML And Form Elements?

Jul 13, 2010

I have this snippet of javascript that is supposed to add additional input fields when a user requests them, which it does just fine. However, when the new field is added, if any of the existing fields had a value, the value gets erased.

Here is the code:

Code JavaScript:

if (document.getElementById('morestores') != null && document.getElementById('initialStore') != null) {
var trid = document.getElementById('morestores');
var idiv = document.getElementById('initialStore');

OnKeyDown In Form Doesn't Work With DIV And InnerHTML

JQuery :: Form Plugin With IE 8 And Safari 5?

Jun 22, 2010

I am attempting to create a form that submits with AJAX on each input change using Malsup's Form Plugin. However, I run into a problem on submitting the form the second time when using a browser besides Firefox. In Safari 5, after the second submission the form stops doing the calculations (besides the English to metric conversions). In Internet Explorer 8, the second submission opens a new window with the handler.php page, which the main page refers to. Here is a live link and here is my code:

Jquery :: Sortable Item InnerHTML On Form Submit?

Jul 28, 2009

I have a sortable with has nested content in each sortable item:

<ul id="sortable">
<li id="item_1">item 1<div>content i want to get</div></li>
<li id="item_1">item 2<div>content i want to getss</div></li>
<li id="item_1">item 3<div>content i want to get changed</div></li>
</ul>

I have a submit button which serilizes the sortable so I can save the changes of the order. I also want to save the changes I have made in the div's but that information doesn't seem to get passed, only the
ids of the items. So, the question, how can I get the inner html of the items?

JQuery :: Form Plugin Not Sending Name Of Button In Safari?

Nov 4, 2009

I have a form with 2 button elements in it. Button elements are usedbecause they are much easier to style as needed.

<form id="testform" method="post" name="testform">
<input type="text" value="" name="firstname" id="firstname"/>
<button class="button ci_btn_shdw" value="Save As New " name="_event

[code]...

I am using the jquery form plugin submit the form by ajax. Everything works great in all browsersexcept for Safari and Chrome. The problem in Safari and Chrome isthat the name of the button that was pressed does not get sent back.My guess is that the form plugin is getting confused by the spaninside the button and not grabbing the name from the button element.

Safari 3 Will Not Document.forms Submit The Form Correctly

Feb 23, 2009

I'm trying to get a form submit working for all browsers, and I am using document.forms['formname'].submit().
However, despite having 'formname' set on the forms in both the name and id properties, Safari 3 will not submit the form correctly; when I debug, $_POST is empty. IE, FF both work here fine. If I use document.forms[0].submit() it works correctly, but this code will be working in a dynamic site where I can never be sure at what index a given form will reside. I can make it work using document.getElementById('formname').submit(), but that does not work with js turned off, and I need this to work with js on/off.

Can't Load Image Within Onsubmit Form Event On Safari

Aug 25, 2011

I want to load an image with JS within the form event "onsubmit" without stipping the submit action of the form.

What I do is the following:

var img = new Image();
img.onload = function(){
myfunction();
};

[Code]....

This logic is a MUST for me, I mean I don't want to use settimeout to postpone the form submit, and I have to call the URL_FOR_PHP_SCRIPT_TO_DO_SOME_LOGIC this way since this code is on a JS file from different domain. This logic works fine on all browsers, and the request to call the image is sent -which is what exactly I need-, however on safari it doesn't call the image request, and start posting the form directly. I tried to add an "onunload" event on the page containing the form when the browsers is safari, but this didn't help too, and the form still submitting data directly without starting sending the request to load the image.

Seperate Concatenated Form Values - 4 Text Boxes That Are Supposed To Load 4 Seperate Values Of Data

Jan 27, 2010

I have 4 text boxes that are supposed to load 4 seperate values of data from one field in one table from a database. The field is called interface_cropsettings (from the interface table) and these values have been concatenated and comma seperated in this field.

Code:

Once the form is filled out and saved, the data is inserted into the database and the values from these 4 text boxes are concatenated, comma seperated and inserted into that one field correctly.

(Example)

If the 4 text boxes have the following values:

In the database field they become:

However, if the form is closed and then re-opened, each text box displays the entire database field rather then each value seperated in the corresponding text box.

(Example)

All 4 text boxes display this:

I already know why the data appears like this in the form, my problem is that I'm not sure how to write the javascript to seperate the values into the correct corresponding fields, assuming javascript is what I should be using!

Also, this is kind of irrelevant but just in case you're wondering, this form is part of a cold fusion application!
