Submitting A Form Without User Intervention
Jul 23, 2005I have a need to submit a form, but don't need the user to click on a button. How do I do this? Is there some way, using JavaScript, to setup a <form> tag to do this?

View 5 RepliesI am using jQuery and blockUI to prevent the user from submitting a form twice by double clicking on the interface: This is in my global js file and is called on every pages
document.ready:
$('form').submit(function(){$.blockUI({message:'', overlayCSS:
{opacity:0.2}})});
This was working really well, but if I have validation on one of the form submits that returns false, I of course want to unblock the UI.
I use this script for my online price search facility:
// JavaScript Document
jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(document).ready(function () {

I have put some javascript into my html page (using IE6 as browser), however I get the message: "To help protect your security, Internet Explorer has restricted this file from showing active content that could access your computer. Click here for options...." Once I have selected that and specified to allow for blocked content ... the javascript runs ok. However I do not have the same problem with loading other webpages (also containing javascript) from the internet!! Does anyone have any ideas?
Another problem I have is that I have opened a popup window, which has a stylesheet linked to it. However it does not seem to know about the stylesheet as my text fonts/ styles are not displayed.
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.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm handling a form submission event. Is there a way to modifiy the value of a text input within the form before the form is finally submitted? I tried setting the value using, 'val()' - it updated the text field but the value sent with the POST was the original value
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a form. Upon submit, the data is sent to the server. Under certain conditions, the form is replaced via ajax with a set of radio buttons that offer the user a a choice.I need to access the radio buttons before I submit the form again.Normally I could just access the buttons with getelementbyid but it is not available, presumably because they were generated via ajax.I could submit the form just to access the radio buttons and then submit it again, but I'd like to avoid that.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to submit a form in frame2 after I submit a form in frame1. Here's what i have but its not working. It's not even reloading frame2's page.: Code:
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have two frames. Frame "search" contains a search form specifying
an onsubmit action like so:
<form ...
...
</form>
The other frame contains a <img ... where
the perform_search function is defined as follows:
<script language="JavaScript">
function perform_search() {
var frame = parent.frames.search;
var form = frame.document.forms.mainForm;
form.submit();
}
</script>
Now, when hitting Return in the search form, then foo() is called
fine. But when clicking on the <img ...
in the other frame, foo() is NOT called.
Is expclicitly calling foo() from perform_search() the only way to do
it, or is there a magic incantation that might do what I want?
I'm trying to use JS to submit a form which is inside another form. Any ideas how I can do this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm supporting an ASP legacy application and need to implement
"autosave" functionality. I have two frames, one that holds tabs
displaying different pages a user can select, and the other that holds
the page content itself. If a user clicks on another tab without
clicking the Submit button, I want to submit the current form for them
and do some further processing.
The problem is that top.framename.formname.submit() only works
sporadically. Sometimes the document object of the page frame does not
exist. Is there any way to "guarantee" that the document object will
exist? Has anyone ever encountered this problem or have any suggestions?
I have a page which contains a form.
I want a customized button with an image for the submit button, and when the
submit button has been clicked send the form to the perl script.
Now the form is no problem but the button is, so the question is how do I
create a custom button and how do I submit the form with javascript when the
button is clicked?
There is a problem with submitting # from the form. Some content get truncated and some variables disappear after submitting. Take a look at the following code and try to fill both fields with: TEST#TEST#TEST
<div id="POSTINI_FRAME"></div>
<table>
<tr>

I'm trying to submit form data to mysql. The POST form action calls the .js file, which make a request to the http server, which connects to the database, executes a php script via URL and submits data to be entered. The php script executes inserting data into database, then redirects the page following execution of script. After, submitting the form, the page redirection in the php script works but no data is entered. Trying to figure out why. Here is my httpRequest.
Code:
function submitPrefs()
{
var URL = './PHP/submitPrefs.php';
var xmlhttp=false;

I am trying to automatically submit a form in an iframe with javascript. My question is whether this is possible or not, and if so how the code should look like to submit the form in the iframe?
this is the form within the iframe that I am trying to submit automatically:
<form id="Form2051051" action="nieuw-bericht.2051051.lynkx" method="post" class="form" onsubmit="return ProcessForm( 'Form2051051' );">

i am submitting a form in javascript and i want it to submit on key press submit, but it wont work. here is my code:
<script type='text/javascript'>
function login(evt){
if (evt){var keyCode = evt.which ? evt.which : evt.keyCode;}else{keyCode='';}
if ((evt == '')||(keyCode == 13)){
[Code]...
This maybe a simple question, but I've never had to do it before.
How do I automatically submit a form, preferably with JavaScript?
I have a form with an action attribute to where to send data, some hidden fields and some radio buttons with default values, a submit button at the bottom, and a javascript timer that starts on the body onLoad event. The trick is that when the timer runs out, I want the form automatically submitted.
I have the following code...
It's not showing me the alert. I'm just trying to get that part to show it works. However, what I'm trying to do is add up the values in one and two and the based on adding those two up and then placing that total in the total field. Any ideas on how to do this?
I have a form in which there are two buttons,input type of button1 is Submit and button2 is button.
<form name="myForm" method="post" action="two.jsp">
<input type="submit" name="btn1" value="Test1">
<input type="button" name="btn2" value="Test2">
</form>
I am calling a javascript on click of button2.
<script type="text/javascript">
function jump(){
[code]....
After closing the popup window which is opened against button2, if I click button1 then it will open the same popup window.
I just noticed that if I use a "submit" button the "onSubmit" function call
will be invoked. But if I use a button to call some other javascript and at
the end of that javascrip I do something like "form.submit()" the "onSubmit"
function call will NOT be invoked. I thought that was wierd. Can anyone
shed some light? Here's a small example:
<script type="text/javascript">
function subform()
{
document.frm1.submit();
}
function checkform()
{
alert('checking form');
return true;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="frm1" method="post" action="" onSubmit="return checkform();">
<input type="text" name="txtname"><br>
<input type="submit" name="btnsubmit" value="submit"><br>
<input type="button" name="btn1" value="go" onClick="subform();">
</form>
</body>
I've got a form inside a PHP script that posts to itself, does some
processing on the PHP side, and if it looks good, PHP sends a HEADER
command that redirects the user out. All was fine until I added a
button disabler onSubmit to keep users from submitting twice. Now the
form disables the button as requested but just refreshes the page... it
doesn't get to the HEADER command.
Any idea what the problem might be?
<script language="Javascript">
function disable(theForm) {
theForm.send_email.disabled = true
return (true)
}
</script>
<form action="<?=$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]?t=$_GET[t]?>" method=post name=form
onSubmit="return disable(this)">
Recently submitting forms (specifically forms which have javascript attached
to them with the submit function) has become very slow. The browser appears
to sit there for seveal seconds doing nothing (the page also becomes non
responsive) and then suddely loads quickly. This happens on all of my
computers... What's happened to javascript? Is there some setting that's
been turned on that I'm missing?
I have the following code:
$('input#submit').click(function()
{
//check if compulsory forms are filled
if ( //checks if forms are filled)
[Code]....
the whole idea is to submit the form in the *else* block if the condition that all compulsory fields are filled (which is checked in the IF block)...but this only works in Firefox. in chrome and IE, the code execution does not go pass the "Processing Form Submission Please Wait" that is shown. The *return true* line never gets executed which is the one that actually send the form...
