Preserve User-entered Quote Marks In Form Fields?
Apr 10, 2010
I have a JavaScript application that needs to preserve double quote marks and apostrophes (" and ') that are entered into form fields by the user. The form data is passed through several screens using hidden fields.
Right now, apostrophes work because I have the input fields coded as value="". I have not found a way for JavaScript to retrieve the field's value if double quotes are entered by the user. If I change the parameter to value='' (single quotes) then the apostrophes probably won't work.
Is there a straightforward way for JavaScript to retrieve the field value containing quotes, so that I can manipulate it into a different string that can be easily passed between HTML pages?

I am re-developing my website and want to use some Ajax/jQuery in it (so I am learning as I go) and I am not sure if this is possible so that is my first question:I have a registration form and I would like to know if after the person registering has completed their first and surname and the 2 sections of their postcode if I can use jQuery to run a PHP script to see if they are already registered before waiting for the form to be submitted and running a script then.I am thinking onkeyup (or similar) after the last field is completed but I don't know how that would work needing to also use 3 other field values.If this is possible, can anyone give me any ideas of examples that do this or how I can go about passing all the variables and running the scripts at the correct time.

I use the following to verify that a user has entered a number between 0 and 99 in a form:
It seems to work fine in all browser / machine combos except Firefox on a Mac, when entering 0 returns false (I don't know if entering other numbers also returns false.)

I want to put a form on my site where the user can enter some information, but I don't want the user to enter the same information twice over the couple of fields that I have.
Is there a javascript that can help to validate the form information or some other way? And if so, is it easy to do?

I am creating a simple web form and am having trouble with a quick jQuery script I am using. A few of the fields on my form are not needed if the topic is not "Get a Quote" so I have a script that hides them if "Get a Quote" is not selected in a dropdown box. I does hide them if I select something else but when I go back to "Get a Quote" the fields do not reappear.
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#CAT_Custom_169338").change(function(){
if ($(this).val() == "Get A Quote" ) {
$(".showmore").slideDown("fast"); //Slide Down Effect
} else {
$(".showmore").slideUp("fast");
//Slide Up Effect
}});});

I am inexperienced in JavaScript. I have an html page with several numeric input fields which are an array. At the bottom of the screen is a running total of the numbers entered.
The html is like:
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME='array[0]' onchange='addup()'>
<INPUT TYPE=TEXT NAME='array[1]' onchange='addup()'>

I have a form that collects information about up to 5 items. I would
like the user to be able to select from a drop down menu how many items
for which they want to compare information, and then have the form
change the number of input fields accordingly.
In other words, if the user selects enter info for 3 items, then input
fields for only 3 items are shown, if they change it to 4 items, then a
fourth column shows up in the table with the appropriate input fields.

I'm using jQuery validation on a form and I can't get it to only validate optional fields if the user enters something (should recognize the difference between this and the default value of the field, for text input fields). I know this is built in (I think) but I must be doing something wrong.
For example, phone number is optional but I want it to validate if the user enters something. Code for the phone in the JS file is:
jQuery.validator.addMethod("phone", function(phone_number, element) {
phone_number = phone_number.replace(/s+/g, "");
return this.optional(element) || phone_number.length > 9 &&
phone_number.match(/^(1-?)?(([2-9]d{2})|[2-9]d{2})-?[2-9]d{2}-?d{4}$/);
[Code]....
When I just put "phone" as the class it validates the field even if it is not edited by the user at all. For the required fields I put "required" as the class to validate them but I just read in another post that this is not necessary with the plugin...? I guess I am not sure whether the field should be define as optional by a class or in the JS file, and if it's the latter, how to do that.

It will be best to use server side scripting like php for it , because user can disable his javascript in that condition your code won't work

I have a website where people can create posts similar to FB(I hate that example but it's widely known) -- how do I strip HTML tagging out of the post before I put it in my db? (I'm using AJAX atm).The obvious crossed my mind with replacing "<" and/or ">" but I want those chars to be available when posting -- is there a way to do this or a way to print the data to my page as text even if it has those tags?

I have an ASP page that displays, along with other data, a list of items that refer to a specific element in a database. Instead of adding an Add button, I would like to display a text box below the last item in the list to have the user input any new data. Once they enter the data and hit Enter, the data they enter should then be added to the list and another text box added beneath this item (just as forms and tables in Access do). However, I'm not sure how to implement this functionality.

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 javascript injection bookmarks with some of the more common issues, but my issue is even after I populate everything when I try to submit the ticket, it won't recognize that somethign is there unless i go through and hit enter in each form i autopopulated.Most are drop down lists. Is there any way to submit each form(when i hit enter) after the text gets entered in there?

I have the following code that I wrote myself (except for the function isNumberKey). However, I don't know how to actually add the numbers together. My plan is to store the value entered in the forms as a variable, then manipulate the variables to get my final number. The final number would be stored in variable named Total and would be displayed after Total: at the bottom of my page.
