how do I get the post data from html in jQuery which contains square brackets?
[code]........
While trying to get a selector to work with ids that include square brackets, I searched the forum and found that I needed to escape the brackets with '\'. However, while this works with my fiddle: can't get the exact same selector to work within my page in either FF or Safari. I've triple-checked the id and it is correct; I know that jQuery is working on the page because changing the selector to$('.nameinput') gives the expected results. can't change the id because I'm working within an existing application; I know I could add a class to the input and use that as the selector instead. I'd prefer not to and would just like to figure out why this isn't working.

I'm hoping that someone can help me with a question I have about javascript syntax.
I got an html page that uploads an image and some text field to a database.
What I'd like to do is modify the content of one of the textfields prior to it being submitted to the database. Specifically, I need to append the contents of one of the fields to another.
The problem that I've encountered is that the textfield name contains square brackets , ‘extra_fields[Price]'
I've identified the square brackets as being the problem by changing the textfield's name to one that doesn't contain square brackets ,extra_fieldPrice for example and the script works fine.
Unfortunately, in the real world application of this page, I can't change the textfield name.
The specific part of the html page that's giving me problems is:
Can't figure out why the pattern will match a period but not a square bracket.For example, it will match "See Jack run." but not "See [Jack] run.". Just ignores the brackets.
Code:
var title = note_title.value;
// validate periods and brackets
[code]....
for the character classes [ ], if i want to match ,.[] i cannot put them into the square brackets so how to deal with that? what if the characters are . or ! or ." (<-- combined) it fails if the regexp is [.!(.")] which will treat ( as one of the element. also the book javascript: the definitive guide says that (?=p) requires that the following characters match the pattern p, but do not include those characters in the match. However, the browser failed to figure this out (IE8) i.e. "asd:ert".match(/(?=:)w/) returns null

Very new to JavaScript so I'm sorry if this is a daft question, I have searched for answers first and could not find anything that works for me ... so .. One html form with two submit buttons. On submit (save changes) posts back to the same page and updates a database. The other submit button (preview) should open a op-up showing what the data would look like if the user should press save.

I wonder if i can make the variable data which is [data] in jQuery.post( url, [data], [callback], [type] ) dynamic. for instance, this is the form i want to send,
PHP Code:
<form action="send_xml.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" id="form_send"><input type="checkbox" id="var_1" class="checkbox"/><input type="checkbox" id="var_2" class="checkbox"/></form>Â

I am writing a small data entry screen that will post the form data to a page and return a message. But i cannot get the Success or Error functions working properly.
Here's the code where strData is the posted querystring of:

I'm a total JS/jQuery newbie, and I'm having a problem using jQuery's load() to POST data to a remote PHP script and rewrite a DIV with whatever the server sent back.
Using a proxy in between, I can see that the JS script isn't sending anything, so I guess there's something wrong in the JS code I send to the browser [code]...

I have some radio buttons and do a jquery post on click. Something like this: $.post("method", { value: value }, function(data) { alert(data); }); the value data does have the correct result, but my problem is the page doesn't refresh to that data.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am new to all this but making good progress and having fun in the process. I have written quite a bit over recent weeks (including a few $.post / $.ajax calls) for various sites/applications but this one is really puzzling me. Here is a snippet of code that is causing me problems.
[Code]....
The problem is that execution jumps from line 2 to line 6 ... ignoring the function(data) and I am not sure why. I get the correct value of "team" arriving at the perl script .... and the perl writes the correct json back. I just can't think where else I need to look to debug this - as I said, I have done something similar 5-6 times over the last few weeks - all without a problem. So I am sure I am doing something stupid here.
I want to POST data to my personal website[code]...
If i run the code from my localhost it doesn't return anything
The script below works, but only returns one headline/url from the html list.I am coming from a procedural background and know there must be a better way to pass all the urls and headlines (the link text) to my PHP script, which populates my database, but even after reading 'Jquery in Action' I am flummoxed.how to attack this problem? The .each portion of my script does not seem to work as I expect it to. I have also tried append, which would seem to be a solution ... really all I need is the "which" value from the url, so passing a simple array of those values to PHP would suffice.
<SCRIPT>

$.each(function()[code]....
Do i need to encode my data send through AJAX post? Ex.
var name = $("input#name").val();

since jQuery 1.4 I've a problem using $( selector ) in data for $.post My code:
settings = $.extend( {
attachTo: $( '.top h1' )
}, settings );
$.post( url, settings, function( str )
[Code]....
it working also fine with jQuery 1.4.*. I can't find changes in the changelog for jQuery 1.4 that could explain this behavior.
$.post, it calls a php file which retrieves data from my database and should return a JSON datatype result. I checked on firebug, and it does successfully retrieve the data in JSON format. I however cannot get it to display on screen. I want to populate input fields with the result accordingly.
Here's a chunk of my javascript: (this function is being triggered by a dropdown)
function updateBillingAddFields(address_book_id) {
jQuery.post("ajax_checkout_confirmation.php", {
address_book_id: address_book_id,
action: 'get_shipping_add_details'
}, function(data){
var form_element = document.forms['address'];
form_element.elements['entry_name'].value = data.entry_name;
form_element.elements['entry_addr1'].value = data.entry_addr1;
form_element.elements['entry_addr2'].value = data.entry_addr2;
form_element.elements['entry_addr3'].value = data.entry_addr3;
form_element.elements['entry_addr4'].value = data.entry_addr4;
form_element.elements['entry_postcode'].value = data.entry_postcode;
form_element.elements['entry_state_name'].value = data.entry_state_name;
}, "json"); }
I tried putting alert inside my function, and it also doesn't show. I'm thinking it doesn't go inside the function at all.
I have been tearing my hair out with this for the past 12 or so hours and am no closer to a solution than when I began.
I have a jquery function to dynamically create <li> tags for an unordered list:
$(function() {
var idealist = $('#idealist');
$('.checklist').click(function(event){
item = '';
[Code].....
This is working fine. The problem is I need to somehow pull the ids from each <li> tag into a string or an array that can be made available somehow to php code for further processing. I can create the string or array within my jquery function but can't figure out how to make that available to php.
I got this code that dealing with ajax..Basically the ajax code is to get the data from the html element and insert it to the database.
this is ajax and the html code ...
When I submit a post request in jquery i.e code...
How can I parse the returned data to get a specific element if the returned data is just an html page?
I have the following in the header if index.php:
Code JavaScript:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/jquery/jqueryui/js/jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script>

I then delete testFile.txt and click on 'Submit' without refreshing, and this time, it does NOT create testFile.txt - and hence, my guess is that it is not calling on functions.php, and of course, alert is empty as usual.
What I want to do is this: I want to be able to click on the Submit button - without refreshing the page - and return data from functions.php and display it within a div tag on index.php What am I doing wrong to get an empty alert?
The data is a serilaized form that "alerts" correctly with all the data using this
[code]....
The alert gives me a string like product=p1&qty=1&product=p2&qty=2 But when I try to php echo out the results on basket-calc.php I get an "empty" array [code]...
I created a dialog which has 3 text fields. I added a datepicker to one of them. On submit I'm trying to post the data in the fields to a web service.The first time you fire up the dialog, I'm running into two problems. One, the values I'm getting from the fields are all emtpy. Two, the datepicker doesn't actually populate the field it's attached to. The 2nd time, they all work fine.This is part of the $(document).ready handler:
$("#expDate").datepicker();
$(".ui-datepicker").css({ 'z-index': 1003});
$("#saveToListDialog").dialog({
autoOpen: false,
