Script To Prevent Browsers Pop Up E-mail Privacy Warning When Submiting A Form

Script to prevent browsers pop up E-mail privacy warning when submiting a form
A very basic form has been employed :
<form name=formulario action="mailto:ron_wolpa@hotmail.com"
method=post enctype="text/plain"> form contents ......</form>;
(I don´t domine cgi- bin nor php , and even I if did it some servers where I host my files do not support both , that´s the reason action is a simple mailto: )
It works fine but as visitor press button "SUBMIT" , browsers like IE and Netscape pops up a privacy warning screen notifying visitor that his email will be disclosed ;
a 2nd pop up demands another click confirmation to send the information collected by the form ;
What I have in mind is a script to do the following :
1- to submit the form just by clicking submit button once
2- as visitor press on submit button , will be directed to another html document where will receive the usual thanks and the confirmation message ;
I find it necessary because as the basic form is above the message is sent and the form fields are not cleared , not giving the visitor any confirmation ;

Unfortunatelly, IE has ActiveX and javascript linked on the same level of security, so that when disable ActiveX you disable javascript as well.This is the problem I am experiencing now KorRedDevil.I have just signed up to devshed now, trying to find some ways to allow javascript, yet keep active-x disabled. am in the middle of creating a website, using a javascript drop down menu. Looks really nice, but when you load the page on IE, it keeps displaying theactive-x warning, requesting permission to allow. My concern is that a lot of people dont understand this message. Automatically think there is something dangerous about the site, and deter them from visting. And they will not be able to navigate round the site effectively without the drop down menu!I'd imagine there has to be a way, possibly with a certain metatag maybe?
Reason being, GMail is designed using javascript. How come IE allows their javascripts to work, but no one elses?!Must be a way.And also, I use a .js file to keep the site resized and well positioned, regardless of browser. This script gets by no worries at all. Could it be because it is an external javascript, and not linked in within the html itself?And with other broswers, ie. Netscape, Firefox etc. Do any of them have issues with the Javascript / active-x warning?
I have run into a problem with something that should be simple. I want to submit a form programmatically using .submit(). It's a fairly standard simple form, four text inputs and three radio buttons, nothing at all unusual.:
I am having trouble with a form submiting when the enter button is pressed in a text field causing it to submit.
Basically there is a text field and a button and when I click on the button it calls a function that does a a few things that need to happen before submiting. I submit the form in the function.
How can I prevent hitting enter on the text field submit the form. If I could do this then I could call a function onkeyup to check for the enter button being pressed and call the other function to submit the form.
I have now a form inside a form which of course doesn't work. I need to have a way of getting specific field data without posting till the whole form is done.
For example,
the form contains several items but a specific section for part quantities allows the user to enter the quantity and then click on the "Add Part Nums" button to get a form in a popup that has entries for part numbers based on what the quantity was in the first form.
I have this part working perfectly but it's a form inside a form so it only works when I comment out the outer form tags.
Is there a way to submit the quantities fields only and get the pop up and then later submit the entire form? A way to do this without having a form tag for the inner part?
So I have an order form which gets all validated with fields, checkboxes, radiobuttons and so on...after submiting I would like to show pictures related to what was order/picked...as of right now when I click sumbit it just shows no "error message/validation errors" since the information is just correctly entered but I would now like to go to another page? clear current page and basically show images...say my radiobuttons was car selection with options bmw, audi, lexus ect...now after submiting a new page loads ontop? showing a picture of the brand selected? how would I go abouts doing this?
I'm currently using this method to refer to my JavaScript files:
<script type="text/javascript" src="filename.js"></script> While doing work for some clients I have made changes to the the JavaScript file referenced above. Because their browser has cached it, they end up getting errors on the page unless they hard refresh and get the new version of the file.
Is there anyway to make the JavaScript file come down fresh if it has been modified since the last download?
What I want to do is somehow get my browser version through javascript:
Code:
var browse = navigator.appName; and then mail that to myself. I can't figure out how to get that variable into php so I can email. I'm aware of the difference between client/server side, so I need to know how I could POST the value to another page or something.
Pardon me for asking a basic question. I basically need a pointer to an example or ways to learn this -- including an editor I should use for scripting. I would like to do the following:
Divide a window into 3 panes; Display & manage messages in one pane; Each message has a unique subject line; Each message can be opened or deleted or forwarded.
I want to get IE5 to send the contents of an HTML form by e-mail using Outlook. I know that the basic idea is to make the recipients' e-mail address the Action. I can make a blank message open addressed as required but I can't get the user's input to appear in the message body.
Is javascript works in mailbody? i mean admin sends registration form through email to new users. for that registration form validation javascript is not working.
I have PHP form application used to by Sales reps to Enter information about customers but I want to prevent Sales reps from entering same information because of web form behavior after they want to add new customer ? is their away in using Jquery to clear the form for new entry ??
I have a for statement in my validation process I do a for loop becasue I don't know how many rows of items there are...I need to validate each item in each row. If I remove the "document.forms[0].submit(); it works perfectly...the code stops at each field that is not formated properly...but never submits. However if I leave the submit() in there, the page submits before they havw a chance to fix problems.
How can I get both to work properly?
function validate(){ for(i=1;i<=rows;i++){ if(column 1 is formated right){ alert("message"); here.focus(); } if (column 2 is formated right){ alert("message"); here.focus(); } document.forms[0].submit(); }
am having a problem with a site I have built. The form on the contact page has been autofilled using javascript, when the user clicks in a textfield the field is wiped, when they click out again, if the field is checked to see if there is user input, if there's not, then it puts the default text in again e.g. email, Name, Company etc.Trouble is, this form works fine on my mac in firefox and safari, but not on windows computers in both firefox and IE.
I'm trying to prevent the submission of a form but it apparently isn't working. Code: elForm.onsubmit = function(){ object.GoAJAXGo(elForm); return false; } The return false bit I believed would prevent the submission.
I have a form in which I have this link :- < href="javascript:submitform(parameters );"> . In the JavaScript function submitform, there is the code for submitting the form.Thi works fine with single click on both IE,NN6.In IE the form is submitte only once even for double click.But if you double click on the link i NN6, the form is submitted twice. This causes problem. The workaroun for this was that we set a flag(indicating form submission) in th submitform function, we also set a timer which calls the functio resetflag after 3 seconds.So any click within 3 seconds of the firs click will be ignored (so that the form is not submitted for the secon click).
I am using an e-commerce solution to run my web business. The checkout portion of the website is COMPLETELY closed off to me and I can't access the files.What I need: A javascript example / solution that will prevent someone from submitting a form without first filling in a field.What I currently have is a series of radio buttons built into the checkout process. It displays 20 options and the customer has to choose which one of the twenty options applies to them. Each customer only has 2 valid options to choose from based on their zip code, but currently the other zip code shipping options are listed as wellI have built a javascript that works great hiding all of the shipping options, taking data from the customer, and then only showing the correct shipping option. The problem is, if the customer doesn't fill this out, then they can just hit submit and pay the default shipping option without ever seeing that they didn't choose the correct zip code
I am building an online store and need to restrict checkout unless a customer has bought at least $20 of items. If they have >$20, they can check out. If they have <$20, they should get an error when they click the checkout button that will explain that there is a $20 minimum. I don't want them to be able to checkout, so maybe I also need to disable the button or hide it?
Here are the two elements in my HTML:
The total price div: Code: <div id="totalprice">{tag_productgrandtotal}</div>
The checkout button: Code: {tag_buybutton,<img alt="" src="/CatalystImages/shop_checkout.png" />}
Here is what I've tried to put together with my next-to-nothing knowledge of Javascript: Code: <body onload="checkOut()"> <script type="text/javascript"> function checkOut() { [code]...
Anybody have a clue why IE and Opera wont prevent this form from submitting? [URL]
If you click "Submit Form" in FX/Safari/Chrome it shows how it should work - it is supposed to prevent submission unless the spam question is filled out correctly. However IE/Opera only show the red error if you put a value in the input. But they still do not prevent submission. In IE/Opera it goes strait to the php validation.
.... PerformCheck fires when any submit button is click, which is logical but I'd like to prevent this if it was the cancel button that was clicked (and preserve form submission on pressing Enter whilst in the 'title' box.
