Add Text Fields To Form Dynamicly And Send To Database?
Jun 30, 2010
I need to fo a form and the content be sent to a database but i'm stuck...I knwo hot to do forms and also how to send data to mysql using php.But now i need something a bit more complex and i'm stuck.I need to make a form lets say with "parent name, age, child name, child age"Some people has 1 child some people has 2 3 4...and i need to have it separated and not just write like "joe, bob, jack" in the same line.How can i do this?And how should the database be structured? i can't put "id, parent, age, c_name, c_age" because some ppl will need to have more than 1 child in the database.
How can I add more <input type="file" /> -fields by the click of a button? The idea is that the clients should be able to upload a number of files from the same form, but I shouldn't need to know how many fields they need to begin with. Would be good to have an option to remove fields as well.
I am having no luck with my post form to mysql. It is only posting the first letter of the word/phrase for the text input fields to the mysql database. It is a photo and text post form. The photo and only first letter of text are posting to database. I am using Jqtouch, jquery, and phonegap.
I have a situation where I need to populate form fields by grabbing information from a database when the user enters information in a specific field. I got this to work with a single field just to make sure I had the basics in place:
* User fills out "Field A" onchange event triggers Javascript function that uses Ajax to search and retrieve info from database (PHP/MySQL) Javascript function autofills "Field B" with Ajax response
Works perfectly. My trouble is that I need to do this with a whole series of fields at once, not just one. I tried using the PHP to output a Javascript array and then use the values from the array to populate the fields, but that didn't work. I got a message saying that my array was undefined. I'm not even sure this was the proper way to approach this, but it's all I could think of.
I have this order form where the customers can change the quantity by intput in a text field.I would like to have the text field changed with select fields, but doing so in the form, the script is not doing anymore.Can anyone have a look and tell me what to change in the scritp to accept select fields in place of the text fields.
I have a function which has two URLs that need to be posted via php onto a database. I had them as individual functions and they work fine but ideally I would like them to be done in the same function. For example, like the following... if (request !== null){ request.onreadystatechange = loginsuccess; //function to check RS=4 & Status = 200. request.open("GET", urllogonsubmit, urlrecieveemail,true); request.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"); request.send(null); }
first foray into ajax territory and it's not cooperatingThe PHP works fine if I define the variables and load the page independent of the ajax, so here's the otherwise relevant code (it's not mine):
I have a simple AJAX chat room and it's taking too much local bandwidth when it downloads. What I want to do is call a page with AJAX that checks for new entries in the database and sends a response if there are new ones. But if there's nothing new it just doesn't respond. That way a user won't have to download a response with no new material. Is this okay to do? Am I correct in assuming this will have a positive affect on bandwidth?
i am trying to create a form that where the page will not refresh if the form is submitted specially if the user inputs any errors in the form my problem is i do not know how to send multiple variables using jquery to a php file i saw somewhere that in order to do this you need to concatenate the variables you will be sending this is the code i am using
the jquery successfully sends the variable to the php file the problem is once i insert it into a database all the variables i sent are concatenated for example in the column stud_no once you send the form this is what will be inserted "123123name=asdasd"
I've created two form fields (username, password).When a user comes to the page, the word "Username" is shown in the first form field. The word "Password" is shown in the second field. When a user clicks inside the field, the word inside the field erases automatically, allowing them to type in their username. Everything above is working, except I'm running into some problems.
1st: I need to figure out a way to include an if statement, that displays "Username" once again, if they did not type anything in the username field, and they clicked outside of the field. This will be the case for the Password field as well.
2nd: If a user types in their username in the username field, then types in their password, but clicks on the Username field once again to fix a typo, it completely erases their username from the field, making them have to type it all again.
I have a small shopping card which has text fields named quantity_4, quantity_10... (quantity_{orderid_here}) Customer can update quantity fields and then update form by clicking on update button. But then I wanna read all quantity fields, but there are more fields than only quantity. So it should be something like this I think for (i=0;i<this.form.items.count-1;i++){ myfield=this.form.items(i) if insrt(myfield.name with "quantity_") check every char at myfield.value }
I am so bad at javascripting so 2 main things i need to get collection of formfields(how?) and then compare fieldname with a string(how?)
I too have a problem with Ajax POST method and Send. I have set up a Site Search using the Google Ajax Search API, and it works fine. The search term is stored in the variable (?) query. Just to make sure, I have set up a new variable (searchTerm) to read the value of query, and a temporary Alert box shows that this variable does indeed contain the search term.
I want to store the search terms in a database so I can see what people are searching for. So I set up a POST method to send the searchTerm to a php file, which uses if (isset($_POST['searchTerm'])) to obtain the searchTerm and then insert it into a MYSQL database. But it doesn't work.
When I couldn't insert into the database, I added a second (temporary) insert using a dummy value as the else part of the above if statement, to test (1) if the Ajax file was actually setting the php file going, and (2) to check my Insert code was working. Both work.
So the problem is clearly that either the Ajax code doesn't Send correctly, or the php isn't receiving it. I am stumped to find what is wrong. Here are the two relevant sections of code:

To repeat, the php is running and always loads the dummy variable from the else section, indicating that isset($_POST['searchTerm']) is null.
Ive been making a script for an order form, originally i had a drop down list of quantities, but having orders something of more than 500 leaflets at a time, is not good on a quantity list, the script below is what i have so far but cant understand why the sub total field at the bottom wont update, it worked fine with the list/menu.
I want to do is add the values of seven text fields on a form and pop that value to an eighth field. I thought the code below would work, but I get "NaN" on the sum field.
Code: function addHazWaste() { document.getElementById('HazardousWaste').value = 0; var HazWasteTotal = 0; var HazWaste1 = 0; var HazWaste2 = 0; var HazWaste3 = 0; var HazWaste4 = 0; var HazWaste5 = 0; var HazWaste6 = 0; var HazWaste7 = 0; HazWaste1 = parseInt(document.getElementById('HazardousWasteSentToLandfill').value,10); HazWaste2 = parseInt(document.getElementById('HazardousWasteSentToWasteToEnergy').value,10); HazWaste3 = parseInt(document.getElementById('HazardousWasteIncinerated').value,10); HazWaste4 = parseInt(document.getElementById('HazardousWasteRecycled').value,10); HazWaste5 = parseInt(document.getElementById('HazardousWasteReused').value,10); HazWaste6 = parseInt(document.getElementById('BiohazardousWasteSentToLandfill').value,10); HazWaste7 = parseInt(document.getElementById('BiohazardousWasteIncinerated').value,10); HazWasteTotal = HazWaste1 + HazWaste2 + HazWaste3 + HazWaste4 + HazWaste5 + HazWaste6 + HazWaste7; document.getElementById('HazardousWaste').value = HazWasteTotal; }
If I run a separate function that just sets all form field values to zero (including the first line of this function). The summing works!!! Why won't it work the way I wrote it??? It won't work if I set the default value for the sum field to zero, either...
I am using jQuery AJAX to submit a form. When the data has been validated successfully and processed, I want to clear the form, but I am unsure how. I have been trying to make it work for a few hours now.
I am showing status messages in the container below:
When everything was successful, it looks like this:
And here is the simple code I use to clear the text fields:
What I need is a way to check if everything was successful and if so, then run the code above. I tried to do it in a few ways, but it kept clearing regardless of the status.
I've created a admin center, that has two seperate login permissions. Admin which can edit listings, etc... and Viewer which can only view listings, and edit 1 or 2 of the listings details and not all of them like the admin. I've seen web-sites where certain text input fields are sort of Grayed out, not allowing for user to type, click in or change anything in that field. Sort of like the html text input field has been or is disabled. How can I get certain html text input fields to appear disabled, and the text that's inside un-editable or unchange-able?
I want to create a form in which visitors can add input text fields like this:http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/5268/pictureli.jpgNote that you should be able to add/remove both new person and children to those persons.How do I solve this? Im pretty new to JavaScript, maybe this project is waaay to hard for a beginner?
I've done a search for this because I'm certain I'm not the first to have this problem, but I could not find the solutions. I am marginally experienced with PHP but have no knowledge of javascript. This is for a scheduling program. Prior to generating the form, the question is asked as to how many days are needed, and the form automatically generates the appropriate # of fields. They are, for this example, as follows:
Day 1, Title 1, Description 1 Day 2, Title 2, Description 2 Day 3, Title 3, Description 3 Day 4, Title 4, Description 4
I would like to add a checkbox (entitled "Same as Previous Day") that allows the user to duplicate the previous entry, populate the fields so the database is properly filled, and make the fields it just populated uneditable. So for the example, if day 2 and 3 were the same as day 1, I could select a box for each day 2 and day 3 and their titles and descriptions would be filled with the information from Day 1.
I am thomas. This is my first post I have a question. I am trying to make a dynamic form. I have seen this addressed in a few other threads, but it is first of all not exactly like my problem and also, the language of the explanations is not simple enough for me to understand.
I am trying to make a form that has 1 box that asks how many designs a customer wishes to order, then based upon that number, reveals that many pairs of text boxes below; one should be with the label, �name of design, while the other should be with the label quantity of design. That way, if a user enters 4, four pairs of these boxes will appear, asking him specific names and quantities
If I set up a variable quantity to the value of the text box, I think I should be able to loop like,
for x=1; x<=qty.value; x++ but then I am confused about how to make the thing render the text boxes. My primitive knowledge tells me I could do something like document.write. But on another thread I read I saw that I could also use
Does anyone know where I can find an ASP server side script written in JavaScript to parse text fields from a form method='POST' using enctype='multipart/form-data'? I'd also like it to parse the filename.
I found a great ASP VBScript for uploading files, but the rest of my Web site is coded in ASP using JavaScript and I can't figure out a way to immediately pass the text fields already parsed from server side VBScript to server side JavaScript.
My ASP code looks like this:
<script language="JavaScript" runat="server"> //I would like to add JavaScript to parse the text field and filename of file1 here. </script> <!--The 3rd party document below parses all fields from the message content and uploads any file fields it encounters.---> <!--#include file="aspinclude/upload.asp"--> <script language="JavaScript" runat="server"> //Add record here (title1, filename from file1). </script>
There are two input fields in a form, but only one of them is required, they are not required at the same time. Either A or B is required. ( A is required OR B is required). In other words, a user can input data to field A, or he can input data to filed B, but he can not input data to Both A and B at the same time. How to implement this constraint in Jquery form validation?
For some reason I cant get the values to save to database. Here is an example and have tried many ways to save. Works normal if the textbox's are already part of the page & is a normal form but does not save when document.createElement() is used.:confused:
Form.php <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "[URL]"> <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript">
function test(which){ var val=document.getElementById('prompt').getElementsByTagName('input'); for(var i=0; i<val.length-3; i++) { tbID='textbox' +(i+1)+'[' +which+']'; document.form0[tbID].value=val[i].value; } .....
