Form Validation Query - Adding Extra Fields To A Form?
Sep 1, 2009
I have a working contact form with 3 of the fields requiring validation and they work well. I have added extra fields to the form (StatusClass, Project, CameFrom). These 3 fields return fine but I need to validated them. My problem is that the new fields don't show in the behaviours/validate panel even though they are within the form tag.
<script type="text/JavaScript">
<!--
function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01
var p,i,x; if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}
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?
I have a script that I am trying to get working in IE. It works great in Firefox, but will only work one time in IE.
The idea is that the user is presented with a field. As soon as the user types in the field the script adds a new field under it. To keep from adding more than one field there is a variable called probURLnumKeep that gets incremented only if the field being typed in is the last field created. Code:
I'm having trouble changing the font color of my labels ONLY when I stop the form from submitting due to blank fields. I'm not sure whether if just changing my CSS will achieve what I want, or am I going to have to add somethig to my if else statement, or both? I would think I would need to change CSS to :
label.onfocus { color:red; }
but a little confused on what else.

I'm attempting to sum/add up values within 4 different form fields on the fly, but keep getting a result of NaN....not sure what I'm doing wrong....here's my code:
function calculate(totalElement) { for (var i=1,app_pend_end=0;i<5;i++) app_pend_end += what.elements['textField' + i].value - 0;
I'm working on what is currently a simple form, which will include a list of the users friends. However, seeing as everyone's going to have a different number of friends to submit, I'd really like to just have 1 "Friend" field and a button to "Add another friend" next to it.
The idea is that when someone clicks on the "Add Friend" button, another text field will appear (with another Add button), allowing the user to input more contact details.
I think I'm right in saying that I'd need JavaScript to do this, but other than that I really don't have any idea.
Would somebody be able to let me or know? Or post up a link to a relvant tutorial?
i'm trying to make a form in which a user can add additional fields by pressing on a button. At the moment, my code looks like this:
Code: <FORM id = "myform" name = "myform" method = "post" action = "somefile.php"> <table border = "1" name = "datatable" id = "datatable"> some html <tr> <td colspan = "7"><A HREF = "javascript:addElement(datatable);" name = "add" id = "add"> Add another searchfield</A></td></tr>
[Code]...
However already this doesn't work, and refuses to delete anything. The function does load successfully when the link is clicked ( I tested this by adding an alert).
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 new to the AJAX world and would like to do something simple, but have not found any examples of it. Maybe I am searching the wrong things.I have a simple form.
my code below works for BillingAddress2 but it doesn't for ShippingAddress2 (when you click off the ShippingAddress2 form field it alerts undefined)these form fields are in the same form
The attached page has 3 entries to be made. Now I want to validate them, that is, if the form is submitted with even one blank field an error must be indicated. I have put the validation code but it doesn't work upon empty form submission.
I have a form that has 9 pairs of fields on it. I'd like to change this so that there are only two blank pairs of fields displayed. As the user fills out a pair of fields, it adds another pair of blank fields. This way, the user can fill out as many as their heart desires, but those who don't have that much information to provide, aren't confronted with an unnecessarily huge form of blank fields.
My client wants to upload multiple files to the server using the FILE type input of the form. Their requirement says that once they click the browse button of the FILE INPUT type , besides file browsing window another FILE FIELD is added at the bottom of this one. and when the user clicks the browse button of second, it adds another until the user clicks the UPLOAD button to submit the form.
I dont know it is possible or not ???? if yes then please tell me how.
The alternate way is to give drop down menu with number and when the USER chooses certain number then ..that amount of FILE FORM FIELDS will be added. i.e if user chooses 3 then three file fields are there to upload 3 files at a time.
I have written a script that i am pasting here, but when i choose the drop down menu and select value the FILE FIELDS are shown but the original drop down menu vanishes.. Please review my code and modify it or refer some script to me.
IF The first choice is possible, i mean adding each FILED by browse button click , then tell me its code, other wise modify this code that i am pasting or give me some link to download a premade script. Code:
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've started using jquery validation on my forms. Often, I need to pre-process a field before I want to validate it. For example, if someoneforgets to prefix http:// before an url, I can just do that, instead of returning error messages. Or sometimes, a field needs to be lowercased and I can just do that, too. I've found ways to do that, but it feels like a hack. Am I missing a feature ?
:confused: when user clicks submit first it should check to see if a name from the dropdown has been selected then it should check to make sure all radio buttons were selected. code to check if a name was selected in the drop down.
I have a large form. One part of it is a column with selects. All drop-downs initially set to "No". The only other option is "yes". I need to make sure that at least one select is set to "yes". Any number, even all of them can be changed to "yes", but only one is required. I can easily add a rule that requires all the fields of the certain class to have certain type of value, but can't think of a way in js to only have one required. I can easily count number of "yes" values with PHP and prevent submitting on the back end, but would really like to have jquery do it first.
I am using a jQuery plugin whihc highlights fields that are not filled out that are required fields.. Now at the moment it simply displays a "Required field" message, but i want it to highlight the text boxes in red instead, take a look at the link below, hit the submit buton and see what happens.. The styles go all wonky [URL] So can i acheive highlighting the text boxes in red if they are not filled in? I have looked at the documentation and cant seem to work out if it can be done..
I'm currently working on a website called 'eXtreme Gaming' I've almost completed it, apart from two things.
- Adding two values on my checkout page for the Grandtotal (I've tried everything, but I'm too much of a noob and have probably missed something small).
- Validation of forms (I don't know where to start here, I've looked on w3schools for tuts etc but I'm having difficulty incorporating it on my site)
I am trying to create an html form for adding 2 numbers and also trying to validate using java script. what I want is instead of getting an alert msg as a result
I want the result to be displayed in the sum:text box --- not as an alert I want to validate the input fields ,if null -- throw an alert msg

Currently on my form if you your input dosn't pass my validation you will see an error message and red box will also appear around the input box. The issue is that if you will it out the box will not disappear until you hit submit. Obviously that is because I have PHP validate the form, but I would like for the red border to go away as soon as the conditions are met, which is why I thought, JS would be the best solution.
I know how to write a conditional state in JS but I am not sure ho to echo out different classes based on the conditions.
I hope this is the right place for my question. I have a working form and all iss great using this jQuery Form Validation PlugIn from brassistance. Now I got in trouble by having a Form which will get extended by user inputs. To explan in detail: I have a Form with static fields and so on. But then if the User selects in the form the amount of Persons, I append Name and Surename Text Fileds to the static form and give the form fileds dynamically generated names. now have the problem to validate the dynamically generated text fields in that form!
rm validation! I want this to be validated upon selection of the drop down list (not when it comes to submit button)I have 2 drop down lists:Starting date (June 5th, 6th 7th)Ending date (June 5th, 6th 7th)I want to write a script that would NOT ALLOW one to choose:- Starting date June 6th and Ending date June 5th- Starting date June 7th and Ending date June 6th- Starting date June 7th and Ending date June 5th
I'm having some trouble with my dynamically generated form fields.
As you can see I'm generating new form fields, but the problem lies within the grade field. I have it set up now so that when you change the grade the color of the <select> box changes relative to the grade. A-D are green, F is black with white text, Not Taken is just regular white with black text and In Progress is lightly shaded grey.
I want it so that each one can be changed individually, but I can't seem to be able to figure out how to do that. Heck if you change the first one's grade field, that colour follows the rest of the clones.
This is the jQuery I'm using to change the color of the thing.
