I'm trying to do a form validation...however, i can't get the submit event to work. So I tried to alert a message when the form submits. But the form submits without going through the submit function.
I just want to understand the concept of event bubbling, capturing and delegation. I have read a lot about them but still unable to fully understand them (capturing, bubbling, delegation).
Probably covering well trodden ground here but so far I haven't found any reliable solution and "it can't be done" seems crazy. Here goes:I have some Flash and non-flash banners that are to be embedded into my page - all managed by a simple CMS. The Flash movies are not created by me as they are for 3rd Party advertisors, and I do not want to be doing any Flash programming myself as it's not my thing and I don't have the resource to do it. As with the JPEG/GIF files - I just want to be given the file and then embed it.
What I want to do is produce some MI based upon when the various banners are clicked - things like how many clicks and who clicked them (users are logged into the web site so I can track them). Simple enough for JPEG/GIF banners capturing the onclick event but for Flash it seems that the Flash movie prevents (or overrides) the onclick event from registering.This seems crazy! I want my application logic (in this case logging user activity) to be independant of the media content - especially as I am not in control of the media content.Googling and experimentation shows that for IE I can seemingly use "onfocus" but this is not very satisfactory and of course I need a cross browser solution.This seems like such a simple concept that at the time of specifying the requirements it didn't occur to me that this might not be possible.... but it seems that I may be wrong!
Is it possible to capture the domain change event OR domain of the target site in javascript? To elaborate, suppose I am on my site (www.mydomain.com) and if I type www.someotherdomain.com in the address bar, I want to capture the target URL/domain i.e. someotherdomain.com in the javascript code of my site (mydomain.com). I am trying to call sign-off function of my site upon customer navigation to some other site without loggin off. I can not use body/window onUnload function because I have a common layout JSP that would be reloaded for each and every page. So I am trying to capture the URL/domain of target site and check if it is different from teh current domain; Then only I will call my sign-off function to kill the customer session.
I wirte a simple sample to alert 'here' when catch submit event. The code as below. When I press submit button , it works fine. But when I press b3 button , it will call a function to submit the form. The form submit is ok , but it will not alert 'here'.
first of all, I am fairly new to jquery. I have already played around with it quite a bit, but I do not fully understand the way it works as of now. Right now I am having problems getting .submit() to work; let me provide you with a bit of code for better understanding:
On the server side, I'm using a web framework that use submit button "name" attribute to decide which action to perform. On the client side, I have an script that submit forms in Ajax with the "serialize()" functions.
But as the JQuery documentation said, the serialize() function don't send the submit buttons names. I have tried to get the event.target object but this object is the form itself. So, I wonder to know if he is a way to discover obtains the name of the button that has triggered the form submission.
Why this submit event is not executing? It works fine if I change it to a "click" event and serialize the submit buttons parent form but I'd like to know why wont this work? [code] $(dialog).delegate("form#stayplanselect", "submit", function(event) { event.preventDefault(); $.post("/admin/viewer/rates", $(this).serialize(), processResponse); }); [/code]
I've put a onsubmit="return false;" on my html form. I wanna prevent the browser from asking metop password saving bar, when i press send button, 'cause i'm trying to model an ajax form.I've tried the following:
[CODE] $('#target').submit(function() { alert('Handler for .submit() called.'); // debug
I would like to add an event handler to the submit() method on the form. If the form contains an elemant recaptcha, it should show a recpatcha in a modal, and upon completing that recaptcha, assign the entered captcha to that element to be submitted long the form.
Basically, I would be able to attach the code that renders the modal and the recaptcha form in the .submit event handler.
I was just wondering; if we have multiple form.submit() handlers that we attach to the forms. in what order are they executed? and what if one of the handlers return false - will the others still be executed? What if we add the "preventDefault" call in any of these handlers?
Basically - I need to know how I can make sure that this handler I'm attaching to the form does not interfere with any other handlers that may have been attached to the forms submit event...
I have a form which has a few submit buttons, all named SubmitButton so I can pass the clicked button's value through to the submission processor and then act according to which button is pressed. However on the jquery form submit even, I also want to check certain things before I fire the submission off. As the button isn't a "conventional" input I can't check the document object to see which one was clicked, so I need to check the form contents that are about to be submitted, can I do this from the submission event or will I have to bind to each button individually?
I am trying to hide confidential data being submitted by a payment button. Now I am wondering how I could catch the according <form> element being created "on the fly" and submit it automatically ensuring that there is no chance for anybody to access the data.
I have a web page with two forms. I would like to click on a button and email both forms, one after the other to two different email addresses. I am new to jquery and I can't figure out the syntax but my attempt is below. I can do this with javascript but it only works in IE and FireFox but not in Chrome.
I have a disabled submit button sitting in the fieldset of a form. What I'd like to do is attach a click event to this button, but from what I understand this can't be done since you can't attach events to disabled elements.
Is it possible to attach it to the fieldset? I'm not completely familiar with event bubbling but maybe it's possible to capture the element clicked?
On the very next line I am attempting to bind a submit event handler to the form:
$('#loginform').submit(function() { $.post('member.php', $(this).serialize(), function(data, status) { data = eval('(' + data + ')'); if (data.msg) {
[Code].....
The form is loading fine, but for some reason the submit() is not getting attached to the form. Therefore when I submit it is running member.php from the form "action". Ultimately, I want to be able to run member.php from $.post() so that I can tell member.php that JavaScript is enabled.
I have a for loop that generates a .append line for each item in an array. This loop is writing out a deli order, where each item on the array is an item on the order. One of the things in the appended line is a delete button that lets the user delete that particular item in the array.
The .append looks like this:
The thing I'm looking for some explanation on is the dlt(' + i + '). dlt() is the delete function and it needs to receive the number of the item on the order array that this line is being generated for. If I code dlt(i) the function is passed the value of i at the time the delete button is clicked, which is after the entire order has been displayed and so is one plus the number of the last item on the array. Someone from this forum suggested the dlt(' + i + ') form to capture the value of i at the time the line was being generated, but I don't really understand why this works.
Could someone who does understand this perhaps write a few lines about why this captures the i that I want? I certainly wouldn't have thought to write this on my own.
My background is C++ and C#. Using basic selectors and filters in jQuery is not a problem for me. My problem is finding the right jQuery code to capture a live html page and assign an object which contains all the html text I just captured... then I can use the object to apply basic selector and filter functions to create another page.
I am building a library of functions which call this function, so I cannot have the data processing done within the success function, I need to extract the data itself.
I've got a form that dynamically generates sets of input elements. First there is a set of up to 99 parent elements, and then the parents can have up to 99 child elements each. My question is not about the generation, but about capturing the data once the form has been filled out.
I made a script that handles getting the values and putting the values, along with their input id in an object that is used later. I don't want to have to use css classes or other attributes to identify the input elements, and wondering if that being the case, if I could get a critique of my script:

The output (the object) logs to your console when you click anywhere in the Result area.
I have been trying to archieve the following with no luck.
- We have a Java Applet that handles fileuploads
- Once the applet finished uploading the files to server, onUploadFinish() is triggered
onUploadFinish() function contains the following
Code:
As highlighted in the above code, I am unable to submit the form automatically. I am certain that onUploadFinish() is triggered because all other statements in onUploadFinish() kicks in and the whole thing works like a charm apart from submission. Is there a rule that forms cannot be submitted this way?
I am developing a website with perl cgi, HTML, JavaScript and sas SQL.
In html page, there are few drop down list, different item of witch, will call specific cgi file to create new webpage. Those are all working very good.
Now, I added search function, with witch the value entered to text box has to be send, when clicking submit button. The URL of cgi was on the form action.
But something happens. It did not go to the URL of action, but go to the URL of previous one the on-change event did.
Code example:
<form name=change> <select name=sel1 on change='location=this.options[selected].index'> <option value=change1.cgi?....>chg1</option> <option value=change1.cgi?....>chg2</option>
[Code]....
After creating search form by entering value into text box and submitting the form, it did not call search.cgi. If on change event happened before, it will go to the same URL.
I created a "cancel" button for my form at the clients' request, I accidentally copied a submit button and added an OnClick event- a very simple javascript.history function. It did not appear to work at all- it kept submitting the form. I changed the submit button to a plain old button and it worked fine.
Can anyone explain how the browser works with a javascript onClick event ona submit button? Does it automatically submit the form no matter what onClick event you use?
