3 Submit Buttons - Stop Or Continue Form Execution With A Confirm Box On The Third Submit Button ?
Apr 23, 2009On my form I have 3 submit buttons which handle different things.I am looking for a way to stop or continue form execution with a confirm box on the third submit button and the third only.I can't use onsubmit because that will trigger on all three buttons.

Jul 30, 2010I'm using an image as my submit button. I want it to check to ensure all boxes have a value before submitting (I will make the verification more stringent later), and if there is none, to cancel the form submission. I created a readonly input box that changes from white to a visible color to use as a status indicator for now.It displays the correct status in either scenario, but return false doesn't seem to be stopping the page from loading. What function would do that?

How To Stop An Error On Form Submit
Aug 2, 2009I'm using external js, not jQuery.I have two different forms on two different web pages. I'd like for the same validating script to handle both forms. I had this:
document.getElementById('form1').onsubmit = validate;
document.getElementById('form2').onsubmit = validate;
But this always causes an error because at least one of those elements will always not exist. How can I get around this and use one js file?
Simple Password Protect - Stop Going Back To The Page With The Form After Submit It
Feb 22, 2009Let me start out by saying that this is for a small-time page with absolutely zero valuable information. PHP or server-side is way beyond the scope of my goals for the project.
Basically, I have a form on a page which I want to use to submit a password. However, I have realized that using the form submit always makes the browser return to the page with the form.
Well, that's not good when I want to redirect using javascript!
My javascript is:
Code:
My form HTML is:

How can I get this to stop going back to the page with the form after I submit it?
JQuery :: Stop Enter Key From Triggering A Non-submit Button?
Jun 9, 2010I have a form with a bunch of selects and a single text input.Form data is sent via $.post whenever the inputs are changed, so a submit button isn't needed. The form does contain one regular button (using the button tag, not the input tag). The button shows a jQuery UI dialog when clicked.
If you press the enter key in the text field, the browser submits the form but it also acts like you clicked the button (the dialog appears). That makes no sense to me. Why is this happening and how can I stop it?I've already tried adding a few things to the form's submit handler, but they don't make a difference.
$('#filters').submit(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
event.stopPropagation();
clearTimeout(window.refresh_timer);

For Loop Speed Trick?
Aug 31, 2006In the Yahoo! UI event.js file I see the following quite a bit
for (var i=0,len=unloadListeners.length; i<len; ++i) {
when I always just write
for (var i=0; i<unloadListeners.length; ++i) {
Is it worth it to declare the variable len to save time evaluating
unloadListeners.length?

CSS And Form Validation - Changing The Font Color Of Labels ONLY When Stop The Form From Submitting Due To Blank Fields
Nov 2, 2011I'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.

Parsing Iframe's XML In JavaScript (AJAX Trick?)
Oct 3, 2006Since XMLHTTP Request does not support loading of XML from other
servers, I decided to use a trick:
load XML into hidden iframe and then get that XML with JavaScript to

But, is this a good idea? I am stuck. How do I get XML loaded in the
iframe and pass it on to JS function for parsing?
A Handy Trick I Discovered For Closing Popups
Nov 21, 2006I was looking for a way to have a popup window appear when someone left
my page, but not have it appear when they hit the refresh or back
buttons on the browser. Since using onUnload="..." in the body tag
causes the window to appear when you hit the refresh or back buttons,
that didn't do what I wanted.
After doing Google searches for many days I never did find an answer
for how to do this. I thought I could have each page open the popup
onUnload, but then also have each page close the window onLoad, so the
window only stays visible if you actually exit from my whole website.
The problem is, I didn't have the handle to the window object in the
page that wanted to close the window. I tried passing the handle in a
cookie, but that didn't work either.
My solution, which I haven't seen anywhere else before, works like
this:
Every page (they are php) includes the same header which has this code
in it:
var exit = true;
<?php
$popstuff = file_get_contents("_popstuff.txt");
$values = explode("|",$popstuff);
$usepop = $values[0];
if ($usepop!="on") {
echo("exit = false;
"); // turn off popup window
}
?>
function offerWindow() {
if ( exit ) {
offerPop=window.open('_offer.php',
'offer','width=425,height=298,resizable=0,toolbar= 0,location=0,directories=0,status=0,menubar=0,scro llbars=0');
offerPop.blur();
window.focus();
}
}
function noExit() {
exit = false;
}
function closeOffer() {
offerPop=window.open('_offer.php',
'offer','width=0,height=0,resizable=0,toolbar=0,lo cation=0,directories=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollba rs=0');
offerPop.close();
}
// End -->
</script>
</head>
<body onUnload="offerWindow();" onLoad="closeOffer();">
Now what happens is if you leave the page it opens the popup, but
before you even get to see it, the next page closes it (by window name
instead of by handle). If you close the browser, or leave the whole web
page then the popup remains. If there is a path you wish to take out of
the site that does not show the popup then just include
onClick="noExit()" to the link and it turns off the popup. Normally the
links that go from page to page within the website will all include the
"noExit()" call so the popup never even shows up. But the problem where
the popup shows up on browser refresh or back buttons just goes away.
Frame Load Order Trick Fails With Refresh
Jul 23, 2005I'm using the 'standard' trick to force the load order of my frames:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Frametest master page</TITLE>
<SCRIPT Language="Javascript">
function refreshFrame() {
frames['vFrame'].window.location.href = "VisibleFrame.htm"; }
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<FRAMESET COLS="100%,0" BORDER="0"
<FRAME SRC="blank.htm" NAME="vFrame">
<FRAME SRC="HiddenFrame.htm" NAME="hFrame">
</FRAMESET>
</HTML>
but this does not work when the user hits F5 (refresh). I want this specific load order because VisibleFrame.htm accesses objects in HiddenFrame.htm.

JQuery :: Submit And Reloading Form Values After Submit Button Is Clicked?
Jul 13, 2011In the following .submit function, I am attempting to grab the value of the selected option in the facilityCodes dropdown list when I click the submit button and then during the submit function,select the facilityCode again in the dropdown list when the page reloads and then disable the list so that the user cannot change it.However,the situation is when I reload the page after the submit button is clicked the dropdown defaults to the first option and the list is enabled.I apparently am not understanding how.submit works so that I'm selecting the option I'm defining in my code below and then disabling the list AFTER the page reloads due to an error on the page. My question is how can I accomplish this?Here is my code:

Submit The Form Data To The Popup Window Without A Submit Button

JQuery :: Disable Submit Button On Form Submit?
Jan 31, 2008I have a page with many forms that I need to change from a post to an ajax call. That part is working, no problem, but now I want to disable the submit button while it's waiting on the server response and then re-enable it when the response comes back.
Here's what I have:
$(function() {
$('form').each(function() {
$(this).submit(function(){

I can't figure out what my selector should be to get the submit button of the form that's being submitted. What should I be using instead? Also, if the call errors out, I'd like to just post the form as usual.

Disable/reenable Form Submit With No Submit Button?
Jul 5, 2010I have a form without a submit button. It gets submitted programmatically with document.form.submit().
What I need is to be able to disable this form's submit capability on page load and then reenable it at some later point. Remember there is no 'input' button element.
Code:
What I've tried so far is like this:
savedSubmit = document.inputs.submit;
document.inputs.submit = None;
then later:
document.inputs.submit = savedSubmit;
but this does not work. How can I do this?
Javascript Submit Problem : Form Won't Submit
Jul 23, 2005So, here's my problem :
I've created a table in my document, presenting a list of items, one
can 'select' by clicking on it... (Kinda like a menu, you make your
choice from) But since this table can get very long, I've put
something of a 'search-form' on top, which enables the user to make a
selection of products from the list.
Now, the form uses a "post" method, and submits to itself, using the
form action. Some PHP script will make sure that the form is filled
out already, the next time it's presented.
The table, containing a list of products is presented, below the form.
When a user clicks on a product, the product should be "selected". At
first i just used a <a href="zoeken.php?prod_id=24"> link to do this,
but the problem is that my form won't remain in tact.
So now, the global idea is to submit the form after setting a hidden
form-field using JavaScript, using a onClick event.
Here's my code :
How To Submit A Form Using A Link, Not A Submit Button?
Apr 16, 2004I've got a pretty basic form that i need to be able to "submit" by simply loading it in the browser address, not click the submit button. is there a way to do this? Here is the code:
<form name="newform" action="/dir/submition.cfm?z=1&Myid=1" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="userID" value="27566">
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
if i load just http://www.mysite.com/dir/submition.cfm?z=1&Myid=1, it doesnt do anything because it doesnt have the userID variable, but im not sure how to include that into the address...

Submit Form Without Submit Button?
Feb 5, 2009I have a form where i use normal buttons with javascript so i can have multiple actions and I don't use a submit button. I can submit the form fine using document.adminform.submit(); but i have an onsubmit="return submitForm"; attached to my <form> tag.
If i had a submit button, it would call the javascript function, but seeing as i don't have a submit button, how can i call that function. here is the bits causing problems
PHP Code:
<form name="adminform" id="adminform" method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; ?>" onsubmit="return submitForm();">
<p><input type="button" class="back" id="backbutton" title="go back" onclick="performAction('back');" />
<input type="button" class="save" id="savebutton" title="save" onclick="performAction('save');" /></p>
[Code]...
when the save button is clicked, a javascript function is called which does the ocument.adminform.submit(); but i need to do call the submitForm() function at the same time
