why my onblur() function is not working in javascript.Code is pretty simple. Its a text box with an onblur() function showing an alert. I have used it long back.. But i could not figure out why its not working now.. I dont know what the silly mistake i have made.
View 4 RepliesI am trying to make an onblur that calls a function and passes it some text, for example:
onblur = "function("Hello")"
However this wont work as it is not even calling the function. I have tried all the different encapsulation tags I can think of but still no luck is there any way of doing it or can I assign the text to a variable and call the function in the onblur?
I cannot seem to get these two events to work together. If I change
them to say onmousedown and onmouseup, they seem to work fine. In this
case, the onclick appears to work properly but onblur does not kick
in.
<a href="javascript:submitCheck();"><img border="0" alt="Next"
name="btnNext" src="Resources/SurveyButtons/Next.gif"
onclick="this.src='Resources/SurveyButtons/Wait.gif'"
onblur="this.src='Resources/SurveyButtons/Next.gif'"></a>
Any ideas? am i doing something wrong?
I have an JS function called from one of my JSP on Blur on a text box. But the JS function is not being called. I am pasting the code below.
<td width="14%">Date of Losses: </td>
<td width="14%">
<input type="text" maxlength = 2 size=2 name="txtLossdd" value="<%=strLossdd%>" checkDay(this)">-
<input type="text" maxlength = 2 size=2 name="txtLossmm" value="<%=strLossmm%>" checkMonth(this)">-
<input type="text" maxlength = 4 size=4 name="txtLossyyyy" value="<%=strLossyyyy%>" checkLossDate()">
</TD>
The JS function
function checkLossDate()
{
alert("Test");
var lossDD=document.frmSicsClmHdrSetup.txtLossddFrom.value;
The first three lines of the function.The first alert not being called. I have used the same logic in one of my other JSP's.There it worked fine. I know i am missing some silly things.
The onblur event for <div> or <table> is not working while it is working for <input checkbox, text> fields

I'm trying to use onKeyUp and onBlur to validate html table field text entryI'm using Firefox in Windows XP, and Javascript is turned on.Mind taking a look to see why it's not working?
<html>
<head>
<title>javascript onKeyUp problem example</title>
<script type="text/jav
The php file is just an echo statement
now to simplify for the moment. If instead of calling the replace
function I've also tried putting in an alert function. Alert works,
the calling the php file does not.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated, I've never encountered such
difficult functionality as with javascript in firefox compared to IE.
Might just be my luck though... Code:
I am creating a form using php, with which I can successfully validate and strip html tags. What I am trying to do is use JS to automatically strip tags whenever the user leaves the text field so they see any changes before submitting.Here is my code:

/* <![CDATA[ */

I have a requirement to handle dates by using three fields, a (year) text field and two (month and day) selects. I fill the selects using jQuery, which works beautifully. However, I have an onblur handler for the year field that handles filling the month select and an onblur handler for the month select that handles filling the day select. Part of this is to get the right number of days for a month (and for leap years), but part of it is also to force users to enter the data in order so that I can process it correctly.
However, I check in both the onblur handler of the year text box and the onblur handler of the month select whether or not the year value is entered (since if it isn't, there's no point in continuing to the day field). If there is no year value, I call
$year.focus();
and exit the handler.
Unfortunately, the focus when all this returns is still on the month select. Adding "event.preventDefault()" and "event.stopPropogation()" within the handler have no effect.
I have a feeling that there's something very subtle going on that I'm missing. Among the points I have realized is that calling $year.focus() in the year onblur handler may activate the month onblur handler (since the month is the next input, I assume it gets focus when the year is blurred). This should not have any effect, since both handlers check for the year value just in case - but I wanted to note it in passing.
I have the following code which aims to change the color of a parent div when the user unselects the radio button. However it doesn't work.
<div class="jquerycorner"><input type="radio" name="hat" value="4" onblur="if(!this.checked) { this.parentNode.style.backgroundColor='#000000';}">10</div>
However the following code works when I try to detect radio button selection.
<div class="jquerycorner"><input type="radio" name="hat" value="1" onclick="this.parentNode.style.backgroundColor='#FFC0CB';">5</div>

I have a problem with one simple script, which works in every browser, just not in IE6 and IE7. You can see the script at [uRL] - when you click on the iframe, you should see "clicked at the bottom". But it doesn't work in IE6 and IE7.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to set up a simple "change your password" form. I've got an
AJAX process that is checking the new password the user enters against
their current password to make sure they're changing it. This function
is firing via the password field's onBlur event handler.
I want to do some other form validation using the form's onSubmit
handler (onSubmit="return validateForm();", and if all those conditions
are met, the form submits.
Problem is, if focus is on that password field and the user attempts to
click the submit button, the onBlur event fires, and after that,
nothing happens. The flow seems to be interrupted - I get no further
activity indicating the click happened. No onFocus for the submit
button, no onClick for that button, no onSubmit events will fire, and
the form does not submit.
How do I continue the process beyond that onBlur function if the user
is trying to click the submit button?
I'm creating a dynamic site but now I'm coming across a problem when I'm displaying input textbox.The textboxes uses two events onblur and onkeypressThese two events they invoke the same function which suppose to determine the function must be executed between Shownext() and tabbackorFront()When a use uses tab key to go or display the next select dropdown it functions well ut when the user clicks tab+ctrl to go back the function that is called is the onblur instead of the onkeypress.What I need is the way at which the events are called when tab+ctrl is clicked to go back
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am having one td and inside td using one control(it may be any control like textbox,combobox) and am using onblur events for td and aswell as the control inside td. when am moving focus from this td to another td the parent onblur event is firing first and then child control(like textbox, combobox) onblur event is firing. The problem is am validating that entire td (what ever the value user updates) in one method. so in this scenario that validate method is calling when i move the focus onto child control. After entering the value in the child control that child control onblur event is firing and am unable to fire the parent control(td) onblur event.

I have a validate function that checks the form for blanks and all, also in the window.onload function I have one where it checks the format of the cc num and exp date. I am trying to get them to work together so that after I have entered the ccnum and ccexp it still makes me enter in the information needed for validate function. Right now after the ccnum and ccexp is entered it passes and submits.

I have two textboxes, each of them is controlled with a function called checknumber. It controlles if they are empty or a valid number and I connected this function to onBlur event of these textboxes. The problem is that when I wrote an invalid number to the first and click the second one, It gives continuously error messages. How can I solve this problem ?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble with a bit of code that is both validating and updating fields on the fly. Here's something similar to my code:
-----------
<script>
function validate(field) {
var frm = document.theForm;
if (field.value != "") {
frm.field3.value = Number(frm.field1.value) +
Number(frm.field2.value);
} else {
alert("Field is empty.");
}
}
</script>
<body>
<form name="theForm">
Field 1 <input name="field1" type="text" onblur="return
validate(this)">
<br><br>
Field 2 <input name="field2" type="text" onblur="return
validate(this)">
<br><br><br>
Total <input name="field3" type="text">
<br><br>
<input type="button" value="Validate"> <input type="button"
value="Cancel" onClick="window.location.href='http://www.google.com'">
-----------
So, I need to
1. Have the "Total" field update whenever a user changes a value in field 1 or field 2.
2. Perform some validation on those fields
3. Have the onblur and validation NOT fire when the user clicks the Cancel button.
Problem: click in the first field, don't enter a value, then try to press Cancel - the validation is happening, and I don't want it to.
This third point above seems to be the kicker. Anyone know a way I can go from a text field to clicking the "Cancel" button without firing the onBlur event? I normally don't like doing validating on-the-fly like this, but my application has the requirement of updating that Total box dynamically, so I have to perform field-level validation as I go....
For those who have been using Outlook Express, you must be pretty used to
the fact that whenever you focus on the preview section, the header for the
preview turns from grey to blue, while the text turns from black to white.

I have few textfields and dropdowns in my jsp, form is submitted on
clicking an image link.
In case there is an error for instance some text field is left empty,
then message is displayed below respective fields ( using spans, inner
html). The message is displayed onblur event of the field. So if there
was an error then message is displayed, now if the user corrects the
error and clicks the link then first the message disaapears ,which is
desired ,but he has to click again to submit the form. please suggest a
way to handle this. So that user doesn't have to click the link twice
to submit the form.I tried having onmousedown and onfocus events on
image , but then sometimes the form was submitted twice which gave
backend errors.
I am trying to use onBlur to get to pictures to pop up when a user leaves a text box. The only requirement is that a user must enter any value into the text box if they want the pictures to pop up. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out why my code will not work

Supose I have a couple inputboxes, and all have onBlur ---> purpose to evaluate min lenght of text, ... before exiting
input box.
They are all contained inside iFRAME. The onBlur event triggers allso outside iframe, on close browser window, etc
which is unwanted.
1.How to limit onBlur event triggering to objects inside certain IFRAME
2. or..
<input type='text' id='nick' onblur = func(this) ...
function func(obj)
{
// pseudocode - can this be done somehow?
alert(document.getElementById('the next obj that just recived focus'));
}
I am currently working on a website that administers timed online tests, and we are trying to implement some measures to reduce the ability to 'cheat' while the test is running. These include disabling right clicks, and handling keystroke events. Additionally, we would like to end the test if the maximized browser popup window where the test is loaded happens to lose focus during the testing session.
I have implemented some code to call an event handler that will end the test if a window.onblur event is triggered during the session. It is working fine in Firefox, but IE seems to interpret window.onblur events differently. Basically, in Firefox I can click anywhere within the window without a window.onblur event triggering, but in IE if I click outside of the test table or form element etc. into whitespace, for instance, it fires.
In addition to using window.onblur, I have also tried top.onblur, and also putting onblur in the body tag of my html:
<body bgcolor="#ffffff" onBlur="lostfocus()">
Again, both work in Firefox, but neither of these alternate methods seem to restrict IE in the appropriate manner.
So my question is this: is there any way to craft this such that IE will play nice and trigger the event ONLY when someone clicks outside of the browser window (on to the start menu, for instance)?
<script language="javascript">
<!--
window.onblur=lostfocus;
function lostfocus(e) {
// student has attempted to cheat, end test
}
// -->
</script>
I'm having some trouble with the "onBlur" event in the BODY tag.
Ideally, what I want to happen is that when someone leaves window A,
window A executes a command. I had put
<body onBlur="savePage();">
I have a couple of problems. On IE 6 (win2000), whenever I put the
cursor focus on a textfield within window A, the "savePage" function
is invoked. And on Mozilla Filefox 0.9.1, the event never launches
even when I leave the window.
Does anyone know how I can solve these respective problems?
