I have a form built and on the onclick event I validate all of the
fields and then if the form is ok, on the submit event I run a
javascript function to set a cookie and download a file from the
current window.
I have a cgi script provided by my web host to send the contents of the
form through email but they only show me how to use the cgi script to
send email through the submit event of the form.
ie. <form name="downloadform" method="post"
action="/cgi-bin/cgiemail/mailtemp.txt" onSubmit="return
Validate(this)">
Can I utilize the cgi script/link from my javascript function and still
send the contents of the form through the cgi email??

Attached is the code
I am wanting to validate a form and I cant seem to get one validation to work. The first two work, but the thrid I want to have a max length of 30 and I cant ssem to figure out
how to do that.
var msg = "";
if(document.jobOpening.jobCity.value == ""){

msg = msg + "Please provide a Job Name Less than 30 Char. before
submitting the form.";

return false;
}
I looked at some of the other post on validation but I still can't figure out what I'm doing wrong to get the JavaScript to validate my form. Maybe some fresh new eyes.
Here is the JavaScript:
<!--
var validations = new Array();
// Define which validations to perform. Each array item
// holds the form field to validate, and the validation

I just tried to validate the first name, last name and address for now until I get it to work.
I have a school project that requires form validation. I have created the form, with all the fields and all that...can you help me script the "form validation" part? I have included comment tags on what to validate.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe following code asks the user to sumbit a name, email address, and some
text for a quotation via a FORM. I have written a javascript function to
evaluate the fields in the form and pop-up a message to tell the user if all
the fields have been fill-out. If the user has missed some information the
form re-displays with red "alerts" indicating where the user have missed the
information while re-populating the information the user has submitted.
May question is, after the user has successfully filled out the form, how
can the submit request be forwarded to another jsp so the information can be
emailed to me. I have written a jsp to accept the request and email it. This
works if I remove the validation code. I am not familiar enough with
javascript to be able to figure this one out. I may be on the wrong track.....

I'm working on a project for my company that will be deployed next week. In a nutshell, we have a bunch of touchscreen computers that we are using as kiosks for an internal event. The various screens have been build in XHTML/CSS, with a smidge of javascript for the few points of interactivity that aren't being handled through the HTML.
I just started dabbling in Javascript for this project about a month ago, and I think with enough time, I could probably figure this out. But I'm feeling crunched on time, and I thought someone here might have a simple solution.
So here's where I am. The "boss" doesn't want to use the built in browser alert/prompt boxes, which is fine by me, since I can just skin up some alerts in CSS, and attach JS functionality to them. But I ran into a snag in one of them. On each kiosk, we are placing a transparent DIV in the upper corner that invokes a password prompt. If the password matches the password stored in the JS, the kiosk browser window closes (window.close). If the password doesn't match, the user is informed of such, and remains in "kiosk" mode.
For the password box, I've written in a hidden box in CSS, who's display value is set to visible when someone hits the hidden area in the upper corner. That works fine. The box itself is a <p> that simply prompts the user to enter the password to continue. I have a form with a text field as well as an "ok" button.
Here's where things stop working. If I pre-define the value of "var password" to be the correct password, clicking the OK button works as expected. But if I try to use the user input from the form, I get an error. I'm happy for someone to start me from scratch if the below code isn't workable. Here's what I need:Password prompt box that's skinnable in CSS.Value checked against stored variableIf accepted, window closes.If denied, user is informed and prompt box is returned to hidden state.

One note, before I toss this to you all. If it's easier/better to simply include the error message as part of the FORM, instead of it's own separate box, I'm A-OK with that.

<script type='text/javascript'>
function formValidator(){
// Make quick references to our fields
var name = document.getElementById('name');
var addr = document.getElementById('addr');

I have a form that submits a POST request when data is submitted. A Servlet then processes this POST request and a JavaBean is used to make some calculations. The HTML response is not generated within the Servlet but instead I forward the request to a JSP to generate the response. - This all works fine.
However, I am suck trying to validate the form on the client side with a JavaScript function before the form is submitted.
Here is my index.jps:
Regardless of whether incorrect input is given, the data is still POSTed to the server and calculated on or a Server Side error is given.
Am I correct in calling the function onClick?
The validation essentially needs to be so that:
- Student field contains a string
- Score1, Score2, Score3 and Score 4 contain a number between 0 and 100
I am trying to create a form and validate it so that when the user enters their details, it doesn't let them confirm if the details are not filled out or incorrect. I am trying to use document.getElementById and labels, so instead of alerts appearing, a label appears next to the field that is required. I also am trying to validate the email to make sure the '@' and the '.' is in the right place.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a form field that is for a url.
I have the value of the field http:// so that the users can add in www.site.com
How do I validate:
1) there is a website entered
2) that it begins with http:// (in case they tabbed and deleted this part and only have www.site.com or just site.com)
I tried using the Javascript error in page code found here
However when implemented into my form the validation no longer works and I believe that the page isn't picking up to run the javascript like it should when the form submits.
Code:
<form id="UserAddForm" method="post" action="" accept-charset="utf-8" name="UserAddForm"><div style="display:none;"><input type="hidden" name="_method" value="POST" /></div>
<div id='UserAddForm_errorloc' class='error_strings'></div>

Of course I have my own copy on the server, but whenever I submit the form I created, nothing happens. It just submits without running the validation.
I need to validate a TOS checkbox on a form that has other non-required checkboxes. I am trying to use a bit of javascript described in this thread:

The follow code I have in the <HEAD> section is this:

I made a form and can validate with javascript form validation using the alert(); But i want to validate the form using the innerhtml and the onBlur. My code goes as follows:

if(x==null || x =="")

I get on my first page: Code:
I have form/select which executes a function using onchange. No
problem. However, when I validate the page with a strict HTML 4.01
doctype at http://validator.w3.org, it demands either an action or a
method for the form?.
If I give it an empty action <form action="" ..... it validates OK. Is
this acceptable or is there a better/standards correct way?
when I generate a new <form></form>, I do not succes to validatte it. here is a light example wich reproduce my problem.

I have created a large form with jQuery that only shows up when a link is clicked (sort of works like a lightbox). Without the jQuery validation (which I made because the plugin never worked) the form submits fine. The same set of validation scripts works fine on a form that is placed directly into the HTML (not created by a script). I have found that I have to put the Close Button script inside of the function that creates the form, otherwise it wouldn't work.My question is, where do I put my validation script for it to work. I have tried to put it inside of the "create form" script with the Close Button AND outside of it. There are plenty of ways around this, I know, but I want this to work for my own learning purposes.[code]...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a asp.net web form that I need to validate before submitting. I've tried the AJAX Control Toolkit but I was having problem with multiple ValidationSummary control conflict. So, my next option I can think of is to use jQuery. First of, how do I test to see if a textbox is blank or not? If blank, output a message to a asp.net Label control on the page and stop the web form submission. Second, if the validation succeeds, proceeds to submitting the web form.

I'm probably just doing something stupid that I haven't noticed, Essentially my problem is this: on this website I'm developing, users can submit photos for a monthly contest.

Just wondering if anyone has ever managed to validate a form that is loaded in a lightbox? I've search everywhere, so it's either really hard and nobody knows or so simple that nobody thinks it's worth mentioning!
Overview
I have managed to create a form that is validated using a jquery script. Works fine, when loaded as a regular .html page.
Problem
However, when I load the form (from a clickable link) that displays it in a lightbox, all validation disappears! Although the form still displays and submits data.
Is there a special way to validate forms in a lightbox?
Or can anyone recommend a lightbox script/plugin that comes with data validation?
I have some code I use for form validation but can't figure out how to make it work for a radio button. The radio button:
<INPUT type="Radio" NAME="BestWayToContact" VALUE='Call Me'>phone
<INPUT type="Radio" NAME="BestWayToContact" VALUE='By Email'>e-mail
Validation code that works for text fields
if ((document.form.phone.value == "Phone Number") ||
(document.form.phone.value == "")) {
missinginfo += "
- Phone Number";
