Submit() Not Working On HTML5 Page / What To Fix It?
Nov 28, 2011
In an HTML5 document I have a form code...
At the bottom of the form, I have a submit button that calls Javascript validation code...
Result: Error: document.ContactForm.submit is not a function
If I place a page from another site in this site and modify it as needed to work with the cgi document, everything works. Then I can copy the validation code that worked into the HTML5 page and it fails.
The only difference I can see is that one page is XHTML Transitional and the other is HTML5 so apparently there's a trick I don't yet know about using Javascript and HTML5.
I'm trying to learn js &html5. now i have an issue. i'm working on a dice game (craps) using the html5 <canvas>. my dice are working fine but every time i click the "roll" button the page reloads which resets my form. the form provides feedback about the rolls. it includes the output of the counter variable, and win, lose, or shoot again info.
Html5 can be viewed at
Here is some of the js. if you need it all i'll post it later - just let me know.
Fyi- if i take the call to fxInit() out of the body tag in the html5 the canvas does not persist, it blinks with every (roll) onClick Event
I have used ie9 js debugger and it steps through flawlessly every time 4-5 counts .
From my experience with HTML5 video so far (which isn't much), Firefox seems to switching to the "HAVE_ENOUGH_DATA" state too soon which is causing very choppy playback while the video is buffering. Is there a way to start the loading of video as soon as the page loads instead of waiting for the user to press play? I don't mean "autoplay", I want the video to start buffering as soon as the page loads without it playing.
I'm submitting a form using the following code and sometimes, it doesn't get submitted. I have Tomcat 4.1.24 on the backend and I am trying to grab some extra information from the server for my current page. I do this by submitting a form and setting the target as an iFrame on my page. It works like 85% of the time. The other 15% of the time, IE just sits there and times out. When a place a sniffer on the port, the Post is never going through. I can't hit anything on the current session anymore either. Is this a known issue with IE? Does anyone know of a workaround? Code:
Trying to get my Submit button to work on this calculator script. I want to retrieve the values for the user and CALCULATE...The button only clears the form and I'm not sure if the functions are calling properly. If there is anyone out there that can help me, please respond and I will post the script.
I have a set of checkboxes and I would like to submit the form they are when one of them is checked. It works fine in IE, Netscape, and Mozilla on Win2K, also in Mozilla on the Mac, but does not work in IE 5.2 Mac. When you click the checkbox nothing happens.
Am I doing something incorrectly? Here's the code:
Problem is it used to work with all the browsers, after updating to latest firefox and chrome it is not responding to anything. It is working perfectly well with "Safari"
I search on how to automatically send form information without having to click a submit button. This is the script I wrote to send a sample email. Code:
I'll start out by confessing that I only dabble in javascript. But I need it in this case to validate information before allowing the item to be added to the PayPal cart.Here is the Javascript:
Code JavaScript: function validateFields() { var message = " ";
I am trying to implement a simple JavaScript of redirecting my window to a new URL upon clicking a submit button. This is an easy task except when I have to put an input type='submit' in front of the onClick command. It always commits the CGI action, and skip the URL redirect part. The example code:
Why this submit event is not executing? It works fine if I change it to a "click" event and serialize the submit buttons parent form but I'd like to know why wont this work? [code] $(dialog).delegate("form#stayplanselect", "submit", function(event) { event.preventDefault(); $.post("/admin/viewer/rates", $(this).serialize(), processResponse); }); [/code]
I have two radio buttons. When their value changes the form is resubmitted. In other words, when you select the other one, the form is resubmitted.However, in internet explorer, it takes two clicks. The first click is to change the radio button (it has to be changed) and the second is to select the other one (it has to be changed, again). The form remembers the first change. Edit: You can click the unchecked radio twice and it will also submit. Usually.I'm not even sure if this should go here or HTML but I think here is the better options since I am, after all, dealing with javascript.
When I click on a submit button it should take me to get.php but it doesn't whats wrong? <form enctype='multipart/form-data' action='' method='POST' name='form'> <div id=$counter><input type='submit' name='webpage' value='Add Webpage' onClick='return changeAction1(this);' /></div> </form> <script type="text/javascript"> function changeAction1(form){ form.action = "get.php" }function changeAction2(form){ form.action = "insert9x.php" }function changeAction3(form){ form.action = "insert8x.php" } </script>
I have two frames, one to the left, one to the right. The left one contains a form, which I'm using to take in user input, and at the same time to refresh the frame on the right.
The left frame's code is:
<html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function reload_right_frame()
[Code]....
This is where it stops working. The right-hand frame is not reloaded at all. I want it to reload after 3 seconds. The user input text is spewed out, though.
If I change the input type from "submit" to "button", however, the delayed reload of the right-hand frame works fine, but then the user input text fails to show.
i have a normal form validation script and on submit button i have called the script onclick= "javascript :return validate();"as long as the fields are empty i get the proper alerts , but i am not able to click on submit even if i click nothing happens.if i remove onclick="javascript:return validate();" i am able to click it
I have a script that opens a popup window (that runs through a wizard) and I need the final page to close the child and target the parent. Sounds easy enough, but it's not working in Netscape6.x.
I named my parent (window.name = 'main' and I target it in the child. This works fine in IE and NS4, but doesn't work in NS6. Is this not a W3C compliant solution and therefore not supported by NS6?
Can anyone think of a way to target window.opener or maybe use some other DOM method to get my child form to target its parent in NS6?
I've attached a text file that includes a form and its associated jQuery code.Before I removed the action and post from the form (as commented in the code), the form worked fine using either submit button. But now the page only refreshes - the alert in the jQuery click event doesn't fire. ____________________________________ f u cn rd ths u cn gt a gd jb n prgrmmng
