Cannot Validate Form Function ?
Dec 9, 2009
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 have a simplified version below of a multipart form. There are two steps and two tabs. I want the user to enter their username and email address and click 'Next' which will validate to make sure those fields are filled in, then activate and advance to tab #2 (Step #2) of the form, where they enter their credit card information.
I am having difficulty because username, email and credit card are all in the same form and I need to only validate certain fields on each step of the form. I was thinking I could make a function when the 'Next' button was hit that would validate the first two fields?
Here is what I have so far. I have a 'Next' button which activates and advances the tab to Step #2, but I need to work some form of validation into it before it advances. At the bottom of the page I have a 'Submit' button which is just so you can see that the validation is working if the form is submitted. I just want the 'Next' button to activate a function to only validate the fields on Step #1 (username/email).
Give it a look:[url]

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??

I am using the validate plugin on twoseparate sites. It works fine on one site, but on the second, where I am trying to use focus() as well, I keep getting the error message that validate() is not a function. My code is listed below and I am hoping someone can spot the problem where I cannot.

My validate() function is not working quite right since it should validate for at least on checkbox checked and even if opne is checked it will simply display the error message instead of validating. What might be wrong here?
Here's the function (note, all the checkboxes have the id='chk')
function validate(){
var countChecks = 0;
if (document.forms.getElementById == "chk")
{
for (var j in document.forms.getElementById)
if (j.checked)
countChecks++;
}
if (!countChecks)
{
alert('Select some checkboxes!')
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
[Code]....
I just tried to validate the first name, last name and address for now until I get it to work.

This post is about the jquery validation plugin. I am using the url() method to validate text fields for valid url input. It works fine, but I want a slight modification where I am checking whether a base directory has been added and not some individual page. For example, not [URL] but [URL]. Any way I can modify that url method to satisfy my needs?

I've built a page which uses javascript to snap roll-over layers to a centered (div) layer. It works fine, and is called when the page loads. However, calling the same function 'onresize' works, but doesn't validate as XHTML - because the XHTML body tag does not support the onresize event handler.
As a consequence, I need to extract the onresize handler into it's own script file and use it to call a page reload.
I can get this to work in IE 6 on a PC, but it doesn't work in FireFox. I really need this to be as cross-compatible as possible. The code I have in the page header is:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function reDo(){ window.location.reload() }
window.onresize = reDo;
</script>
Does anyone know how to achieve a cross-compatible means of reloading a page upon resizing?

The 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.
[Code]...
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.

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.

I 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>
[Code]....
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.
