Could somebody confirm if and how I can change the TYPE of a textbox from PASSWORD to TEXT depending on whether a user checks a checkbox.
In essence I have a login and password form and the end user wants the option to check a checkbox to make the Password textbox show normal text rather than the asterisks. If the checkbox is unchecked then it shows the asterisks when entering the password.
I have to change text input type to password input type and i am using jquery script. This script work for FF, Chrome and Safari browser but not worked on ie7, ie8.
Script is as:-
How can i update my script, so that it works cross the browser.
I am trying to dynamically clear the value of a form input field and then submit the form.When I used $('#my_field').val('') to clear the field, it was cleared on the screen but when the form was submitted the original value of the input field was posted.My browser is FireFox and I can see using FireBug that when the field is cleared, firebug is still showing the html code with the old value. E.G. <input type="text" value="old_value" />The same situation occurred if I used $('#my_field').attr('value', '') to clear the field.The same situation occurred if I actually changed the value of the field rather than just clearing it.To work around this problem I ended up using the $('#my_field').removeAttr('value') to clear the field before it was submitted.
my users will be filling in a text box, and its contents will be forwarded to another page via a form link. I keep coming across new instances of characters getting converted to %2 codes, eg ! gets changed to %21,' gets changed to %2C etc. At the moment I am replacing these with javascript on the receiving page, but this can't be the best way to do it. And I don't really understand why it happens anyway. Is there a way of making sure what gets typed in gets forwarded correctly? Or failing that, is there a list I can use to find them all?
I'd like to know if its possible to shift a select option field into a simple text field based on a check box filled by user.
I have an asp form that carries a few select options. One of them I'd like to permit free editing if the user selects a check box just biside the select option, so enableing free editing by user.
I want to restrict the user from being entering the value in <input type="file">. It works fine in IE but not in Mozilla. I am sending my code also which works in IE and not in Mozilla...
If I have this HTML code, the myForm.elements.length is 5, instead of the expected 6. You can click on the image in this case, and it acts like a submit button... proof that the broser recognizes it as part of the form.
So, if I call myForm.elements[4], I get the button, not the image.
It seems goofy to me, and I cannot find any documentation that explains why this is.
Of course, I can get access to the object in many other ways... I am just curious if the is an IE bug.
Is it possible to change the input type of a form field. example
<input type="password" name="pw" value="test">
i want to have a "view" button next to that field that when you press and hold it it will chnage that input type to "text" so i can see the password. And when i release the button it will change it back.
I know this sounds like a bad idea and insecure... but its not a big deal.. i have all this stored in an "administrator" panel which an admin must login to get to it. Inside of that i have some admin programs, one of which displays information about the clients. I want to be able to see the clients password when ever i need to reference what it is, but i figured rather then just printing it on the screen all the time this would be a better way.
I have an input text box that I want to change the type from text to password and I wrote code that works in Firefox but not in IE any suggestions? Here is the code(cut down a little for easier reading) code...
I am new to javascript and I tried to change the type of a input using js.My work works well with Firefox and Chrome but not with IE.IE javascript debug mode says:
Quote:
(SCRIPT256: Could not get the type property. This command is not supported. ).
This is the code I used to change the type.
Code: var email_type=document.getElementById("email"); email_type.type='text';
point.x and point.y values get submitted to the server specifying where on the image I have clicked.
Is there any (simple) way to get ahold of that point.x and point.y BEFORE they are sent to the server (and prevent that from happening)? Ie. I just want the points where someone clicks on an image and not interested in a submission to the server.
can anyone tell me how do i disable the file type dialog box .
I want the user select the file through browse buttton,but i do not want him to edit the file name he has select in the text box where it gets dispalyed.
I was wondering if anyone knows a way to get the file name(the one theuser has just browsed and is about to upload using the form) from aform input.I tried $("#fileInput").val() but it does not work.
i have a problem with the input image type. they act as submit buttons right. but i hav 2 in one page. so its like having 2 submit buttons in a single page. lets name it.. BUTTON_A and BUTTON_B. BUTTON_A has some calls a javascript that needs to submit the page but does not do the main process. BUTTON_B is the real submit button for the form..heres the problem...when i am in any text input field and press enter, it is like i clicked BUTTON_A...what i want to happen is when ever i press enter it clicks BUTTON_B. i believe the problem is becuase BUTTON_A comes first of BUTTON_B. what do i do?
my input file <input type="file" name="file" /> and javascript <script type="text/javascript">
[Code]....
now the problem is if I add id="test1" in the input file the javascript stuff works but then actual thing that input file suppose to pass (File upload info) goes missing.
so I was wondering is there any way I could by pass adding the id part in the input and still call it?
I was thinking some thing like
$(document.forms[0].elements["file"]).fileinput(); but that's not working...
Any way to define the length of a textfield? I have just set all the field with a width so that they look like clear and easy to read, However, When I see the page of mac os, They are totally not the result in IE of FF, Does there any way to define it absolutely?
I have already change the size attribute and set the width of the input.
I want to create a input box the says Password inside the box and gets erased when someone clicks inside of it. Then when they type their password it is in asterisk characters.Can anyone tell me what extra scripting I need?
I have a page with a customizable background. The user can choose a picture to set as the background by finding the picture file they want after clicking the upload input. The path of the file they select is saved into a cookie, and the page then switches backgrounds.
This all works perfectly, but the value that the upload input returns is only the file name, not the full path. For example, let's say I wanted to choose a picture named "bg.jpg" in the "Windows" folder of the C drive. The full path would be "C:/Windows/bg.jpg". However, the value that the input returns is just "bg.jpg".
How would I have the input return the entire path of the file using JavaScript?
