I'm considering in teaching myself some javascript, but before I take the time to read up and experiment, I had a few questions.
Is javascript XHTML 1.0 STRICT Valid? Is javascript valid for any version of XHTML? Is javascript easily cross browser compatiable, or will this take a long time to work around?
I've been doing a bit of research and haven't found anything too easy. Can anyone point me to an article that has a function written in javascript that validates that a date that has been submitted via a form that it is a valid date?
I am building a custom validator. I don't want any suggestions on using a jQuery framework, i just want to ask a few question on how best to continue.
Code: <script type="text/javascript"> //Validator Strings And Expressions. var Letters = /^[A-Za-z]+$/;
[Code].....
This is the "on page" validation. This, as you can see calls functions held in an included file onkeyup. This all works well, also the username check ajax call works great. However I have 2 questions that I need to sort before this will work correctly.
1. Using M_USERNAME form as an example. If I start typing in there it will begin validating, which is great, However, if i typed in "matt_thomas" based on the validations, Empty:Pass, ValidChars:Fail, Range:Pass, Check:Pass.
So I know that it isn't empty, it's the correct length and it's not already in the DB. But it fails because of the "_". This should mean that I receive the error i have setup for that failure. But I don't. Because I don't stop on a Fail, I receive the success message of the last function.
So my question is; How Can I stop running any more functions when one fails?
2. Looking at the above code, How can I make sure that a submit will only work when ALL fields validate correctly?
The following script generates three SELECT menu's... one for days one for months and one for years. Each time a new year or a month is selected the menu's are updated to allow only valid dates. Its only just been finished and could probably use commenting more, but im always open to suggestions, advice and criticism.
I try to make a script which check's input's value every time when value changes. There must be ready example somewhere, but I just could not found it. The value shoud be hex-color-value (like #FFFFFF), so script should check if the first character is # and after that only characters a-f, A-F and 0-9 are ok. I guess it goes something like this:
function checkHex(value) { // if value string includes only characters # a-f A-F 0-9 value is ok // else value is not ok } <input type="text" id="hex_input" onkeyup="checkHex(this)" />
iam trying to do a form with some validation on it and when the user enter an invalid entry the validation alert the invalid message and every thing works fine the problem is : after hitting okay button all the previous data entered in the fields is no longer exist so the user enter every thing again how do i keep he valid entry for the user in the fields
Got this snippet of code, but getHTTPObject(); is not valid. What .js library need to get this working? <script src="json2.js"></script> var request; function runAjax(JSONstring){ // function returns "AJAX" object, depending on web browser // this is not native JS function! request = getHTTPObject(); request.onreadystatechange = sendData; request.open("GET", "parser.php?json="+JSONstring, true); request.send(null); } // function is executed when var request state changes function sendData(){ // if request object received response if(request.readyState == 4) // parser.php response var JSONtext = request.responseText; // convert received string to JavaScript object var JSONobject = JSON.parse(JSONtext); // notice how variables are used var msg = "Number of errors: "+JSONobject.errorsNum+" - "+JSONobject.error[0]+" - "+JSONobject.error[1]; alert(msg); }}
I have an online shopping cart and some of the products are sold in boxes of 6. So I am trying to write some code that will alert the customer if they have entered a quantity that isn't some multiple of six.
I've tried using the modulus operator as well as dividing by 6 and then checking to see if the result is a whole number but inevitably the alert box pops up no matter what I enter.
This is what I'm trying to use now:
Is there a better way to check if the entered quantity is a multiple of 6?
I was hoping that someone could give me a hand with a regex quetsion. I'm quite new to it all, but managed to get things working pretty much how I would like them except for allowing special characters such etc.
I have a signup form that the user fills out. Among other textboxes, there is an Email textbox, and a Password textbox. These are the two I want to do some Ajax work on.
Right now I'm choosing to go the onblur approach, but is there something better? I'd really like Ajax to go into affect when the user has stopped typing. I know there is key up and key down, but that won't really be too good for what I'm doing. Besides that though, this isn't the real problem.
My problem is this, when the onblur function is called, I want it to return text to a specific element on my HTML page depending on if the fields are valid or not.
Anyway, if the email address for example is valid, I want the valid class to get the response. If it's invalid I want the error class to get the response.
Here's my javascript (right now I'm only trying to implement the Email field):
function checkErrors(str) { if (str=="") {
[Code]....
Now the way I have this set up now, both classes are going to get the text, correct? Well I of course don't want that. I don't know how to have it set up so that only one class gets the response depending on what the result is.
I'm not sure how to do this because I added a js function to run on a form's submit button's click event. The js function does run, but then no matter what, the php script is called. The alert runs, then it goes to the php script. How can I stop it doing it?
here is js function:
Code JavaScript: function checkFields(form){ var myForm= document.getElementById(form) if(myForm!="li-comment-form"){
I am using jQuery 1.4.2 and I am trying to carry over the global variable totaltabs into my JSON callback function. The code seems to work properly, however, in my loadJSON function after the callback function loads the data, my totaltabs variable will not increment.
Here is a peak at my code.
totalItems is loaded from another function, not relevant to my example.
Code JavaScript: var totaltabs = 0; $(document).ready(function(){ resize();
I'm writing a form validation function and would like to verify that a field only contains alphanumeric characters. How should I structure that statement? the following seems logical but doesn't work;

I am trying to make a link dead until all fields are valid. Once they are validated and match the regex, the link should take you to its destination.
[Code]...
As of now, you can click the link and a lightbox will show up displaying verify.php no matter what the case; even if the fields are considered invalid values by regex. I want the link button (#various2) to be dead until all text fields match the regex assigned to them.
ALSO, for some weird reason, my link has to be pressed twice until it is able to recognize the urlstring in the js. So....when the viewer comes to my site, they will press the link once (nothing happens) and have to press it again for it to work.
