Alert Box Is Closed Automatically
Oct 14, 2006in the body onload event for a web page I am calling a javascript function
which displays an alert message
one user has reported that the alert appears but then is automatically
closed before he can read it. He is using IE6 on XP SP2.
AFAIK there is nothing that the server or javascript could be doing to close
an open alert box. I am guessing it's a pop-up blocker or something, but the
user claims to have disabled all such things on his browser.
Alert() Statement Lets Code Work, Remove It, Code Errors Out
Dec 17, 2007I am a novice, almost to an intermediate-level JavaScript guy, so much of this is new to me. I appreciate your patience reading this.
I have a routine that creates some HTML on the fly (updateFilters() function) and after the HTML is created, I attempt to access some fields (elements) on the form itself.
I works fine if I place an alert() statement after the HTML is created, but when I remove, the code errors out.
I have tried the setTimeout() statement, but I cannot grab the element --- undefined or null is returned. It seems that the form is the only element I can get a handle on --- everything else is undefined or null...
Here is the code:
function editQuery() {
var f;
var x;
var myForm = document.forms[0];
// Get the row filters that were used in the last query..
for (f = 1; f < 16; f++) {
var filter = eval("myForm.FilterList_" + f);
if (filter.selectedIndex > 0) {
var methodElement = element("FilterMethod_" + f);
var methodIndex = methodElement.selectedIndex;
var savedFilterMethodValue = methodElement.options[methodIndex].text;
var choicesElement = element("FilterChoices_" + f);
var choicesIndex = choicesElement.selectedIndex;
if (isNaN(choicesIndex)) {
var savedFitlerValues = choicesElement.value;
}
else {
var savedFitlerValues = choicesElement.options[choicesIndex].text;
}
updateFilters(filter); // update the filters
// take the saved methods and values and then update the selections
// Alert here makes the code work..
// alert("Try this");
// Wait for HTML..
setTimeout("completeEdit()", 1000);
function completeEdit() {
// Since the object was updated, get the object again..
var methodElement = element("FilterMethod_" + f);
for (x = 0; x < methodElement.options.length; x++) {
if (methodElement.options[x].text == savedFilterMethodValue) {
methodElement.options[x].selected = true;
break;
}
else {
methodElement.options[x].selected = false;
}
}
// Since the object was updated, get the object again..
var choicesElement = element("FilterChoices_" + f);
for (x = 0; x < choicesElement.options.length; x++) {
if (choicesElement.options[x].text == savedFitlerValues) {
choicesElement.options[x].selected = true;
break;
}
else {
choicesElement.options[x].selected = false;
}
}
// Only display next row if f = 2..
// If only one row was used, no reason display the next row..
if (f == 2) {
displayNextFilter(f - 1); // display it
}
}
clearTimeout(timeOut);
}
}
}
Do I have to pass the object (the form, the elements) to the completeEdit() function in the setTimeout() statement?
JS Form- OnSubmit - Function To Be Called Continuously After The Form Is Submitted?
Dec 19, 2011I am trying to create a form that writes text to an HTML canvas when submitted. Eventually, the function that writes the text will be more complex. The problem is the text only appears briefly, because the function is only called once when the form is submitted. I want the function to be called continuously after the form is submitted.How do I do this? I have had very little experience with JS.A lame (failed) attempt...

JQuery :: Run PHP Script After 4 Form Fields Entered And Form Not Submitted?
Nov 12, 2010I am re-developing my website and want to use some Ajax/jQuery in it (so I am learning as I go) and I am not sure if this is possible so that is my first question:I have a registration form and I would like to know if after the person registering has completed their first and surname and the 2 sections of their postcode if I can use jQuery to run a PHP script to see if they are already registered before waiting for the form to be submitted and running a script then.I am thinking onkeyup (or similar) after the last field is completed but I don't know how that would work needing to also use 3 other field values.If this is possible, can anyone give me any ideas of examples that do this or how I can go about passing all the variables and running the scripts at the correct time.

If Disabled - Would A Form Get Submitted?
Jul 12, 2011I am relatively new to web programming (1.5 years) and this question just occurred to me.
I use jquery form validation to validate forms on my site. If my browser has javascript disabled, what is stopping someone from submitting crap through my form?
I tried disabling javascript and submitting a form on my site and it posted.
Is there a way to make it so if the user does not have javascript enabled the form cannot post?
Form Data Not Submitted?

JQuery :: Modal Form Won't Post Back To Server Unless It Is Closed First?
Jan 31, 2011I have created an entry form that I display in a modal dialog. I have two buttons on the form: "Add and close", and "Add and allow me to add another". However the only time my modal form will post back to the server is after the form has been closed. I want to do the following: The user opens the form in a modal dialog. The user enters data, and clicks the "Add and allow me to add another" button. The page sends the user input to the server, which adds the input to a database and updates a datagrid on the page. This updated datagrid is visible behind the modal form, so the user can see it happening in the background The form clears all input fields and the user goes again. Any code I write that calls the server (button click events, ajax calls, etc) are ignored, unless the modal form has been closed.
