Query :: Get String And Email The Sting Upon Users Submitting Form
May 21, 2009
Goal: get query string and email the sting upon users submitting form. Reason: To know what marketing ad unit the user can from Details. I need to get a query sting from the url (ex. example.htm?id=22e&moreid=99lk) and store the stings as vars and be able to pass these vars from page to page (hidden from the user) and when the user gets to a registration form and submits the form, the vars get attached to the email that is sent to me, so I know where they came from.
i know that there is a mailto: script to use but it is unsecure and all that, so what would be the best way to go about sending form information to an email address in javascript?
I know it's messy and all to send data this way, but it's what was decided on, so here's what I need to do with it. I want to take all the info from the query string and post it into the corresponding form fields in the document. So I need to somehow isolate the query string (maybe a global JS variable? maybe another method?) and then I was thinking it would work to somehow pull each piece of information delimited with &= and put them into a simple array (split() method?). Once I have the info pulled from the URL into an array, I thought I could simply update the field's value attribute with basic javascript like this:
form1.SubscriberID.value=1523;
Then, all the values would be automatically loaded into the correct form fields. But, since I'm a js newbie, I really dont know how to go about this. Ideas? Examples? Remember I'm new, so explaining every process might be in order.
My problem is that users have the ability to manipulate querystrings to the point of being able to access data to which they should not have access to. The user logs in with their details and is redirected to their own data. The URL in the status bar is displayed without the &id=xxxx but in the source the &id=xxxx is present as a HREF. If the user adds &id=xxxx (Where x is any integer) they can access the data of other users. how to prevent this? To my mind, the best course of action would be to include id=xxxx in the session data and not to have it as a querystring but I would not know how to approach this.
I'm making a little CMS, and I need to use AJAX to query the DB to see if an email is already registered. Here's my code so far:
The javascript: Code: <script> function getEmail(){ var ajaxRequest; try{ ajaxRequest = new XMLHttpRequest(); } .....
I'll test it by entering javascript:alert(getEmail()) in my browser, and it returns undefined. When I replace return 'valid/taken' to alert valid/taken, it will alert the values correctly, but for some reason it has to be entered twice (I have to hit enter twice in javascript:getEmail() for it to be correctly outputted). I'm relatively new to ajax and I think it might have something to do with the readyState not being correct.
I am new to javascript. I was trying to passe text input to javascript. But code is not working.
Here is the code <script type="text/javascript"> function val(){ if(document.a.email.value=="" ||document.a.email.value==null ){ alert("sssss"); return false; } if(document.a.email.value!="" ||document.a.email.value!=null ){ alert("sssss"+document.a.email.value); return true; }} </script>
And here is the HTML code, <form action="a.php" method="POST" onsubmit="return val();"> <strong>E-Mail Address</strong> *</td><td><input name="email" type="text" value="" /> <input type="submit" value="submit" /> </form>
Any reason not to view the alert message.. and I want if the email is null to stop submitting the data to a.php.
I'm doing a registration form.I want to validate the email address before submitting the form using ajax.That is to verify if the email address already exist in the database.
Last week after much searching, I found the answer to my problem in this newsgroup. I can't find the thread from which I got my solution, but I wanted to report back what worked.
When the site visitor fills out the form and submits it, this calls a rather ordinary asp script like formmail.asp that sends the emails and displays a "thank you" web page. At the very end of my "thank you" web page I placed the following:
This causes the file download to get triggered, and asks the user if they want to save the file. In limited testing this appears to work fine in both Firefox and IE.
i have javascript menu form my site that has two js file: "data1.js"
PHP Code:
var isHorizontal=0;
var blankImage="images/blank.gif"; var fontStyle="normal 8pt Verdana"; var fontColor=["#000000","#000000"]; var fontDecoration=["none","none"]; etc....
var menuItems = [ ["Page 1","page1.php","img/new1-05.gif","img/new1-05.gif","Page1"],
I want to link "page1.php" pick up id from url (http://www.mysite.com/anypagewithid.php?id=34) and when i click at menu it has to be url page.php?id=<id_from_url>
I have try menu at site, it works fine ;-)
Also, how can include some php in menu, like list of mysql rows and etc.
Below is a stock script I found which controls a framed environment. My problem is that if a URL has a query string attached, that string does not pass through. Can someone please let me know if and hopefully how, it will be possible to carry a query string through?
This first part here is in the default.asp framed page. Code:
i want to pass XML data in querystring from one to another asp page. it is about 10000 characters long, i cannot use FORM because it is already nested in one.
What i do is i have IFRAME and im passing some xml data in QUERYSTRING. It doesnt work somehow, im using javascript escape method to substitute escape characters, but most of characters are being truncated (about 300-500 left).
Are there limits in querystring length? what else should i try?

having trouble getting a query string/URL to append a couple of variables from a function (well, trying to get ONE working). Basically, once a user makes a selection from a form, I want the script to add the variable to the query string, which is then sent off to a PHP script. If I manually enter the 'social_housing_type' as a number in the query string, it executes properly, I just can't get it to do it from the form.
What I am attempting to do is have a link/button on a page (testpopup.cfm) that opens a popup page (popupwindow.cfm). The popup page displays a resultset from a query and the selected record needs to be passed through a query string/URL parameter to the original calling page and will be available in the body onload event of the calling page.
I open the popup window and display the query results, I then click on a record and the record is then displayed in the calling form textbox (txtOrg) - - - only the calling form appears in the POPUP window! This is not what I need it to do. I need it to pass the URL parameter to the calling page and close the popup. Here is the code from the two pages. Can you shed any light on this? ....
I'm working on a rather complex booking system for building European trips, in a combination of SQL/VBScript/Javascript. There are tons of query string variables that get passed back and forth between the pages, and in almost every case, I can set 'em up fine, provided the variables are in the link.
The page the *holds* the booking information, though, is problematic.
An example trip might include two European cities or towns with a week in each in an apartment or cottage that the user selects from a dozen or properties for each region.
All the information is on one page (all the dozen or so properties for each weeks, available dates for the trip and for each , max occupancy per property, pricing per property and per number of passengers, etc...everything necessary to actually book the trip). If the user changes party size or chooses a date, properties are hidden or shown depending on max occupancy and/or availability.
So, a user sets their date and party size (or maybe just the party size, or maybe has just cleared everything out to start over...) then wants to view available properties so they can find one they like. The current pax/date/etc. information is not in the query variables, because the link was built at runtime.
If I build the link in an onclick event, it breaks if someone right clicks to open a new page or tab.
I hate sites that disable right click menu. I hate sites where, when you open a new page with a right click, it generates a javascript error if the URL is created with an onclick event. I hate that using an onclick to bring up the page means whatever is showing in the status bar bears no resemblance to the page that is brought up when you click on the link.
My client isn't worried about the non-javascript people for this use; those people are referred to a free spiffy catalog, which frankly, is how most of this client's customers book their trip anyway. I just want to be able to carry the variables in such a way as to not break the site if someone right clicks.
I am looking for a javascript function that will parse a query string. Parameters are passed in the url: url?a=3&c=5&etc An array is returned that uses the variable name as the index.
In 1.4.4 thea[href=somepage.php?name=mike] lookup works 100%, but switch to 1.5 or jQuery WIP from the Include dropdown and the selector fails (PS. 'jQuery latest' in the dropdown still refers to 1.4.4 on Google's CDN).
So im using this framework called CodeIgniter anyways it allows query strings but by default I have turned them off. Instead a url would look like this: [URL] However jQuery or the plugin datatables that I am using is generating it like this: [URL] Just trying to figure out where all this magic happens so I can change it to my magic!
I have an issue building a query string. Basically, I have this: /sites?order=site_numper_page=20& But I would like to convert it to this: /sites?order=site_num&per_page=20
I have tried this to check if the current iterator is less than the length of the object and if so, then add the "&", otherwise, don't. But it doesn't seem to work: $.each(query_string, function(key,value){ params += key + '=' + value; if((value + 1) != query_string.length){ params += "&"; }})
parsing the querystring using javascriptSo I have successfully parsed the querystring & also replace the special character+but I want to display the querystring in the TextField Control
I can append a query string to a setTimeout?So i have this:PHP Code: setTimeout("location.href = 'http://www.natural-environment.com';",1500); and i want to do this:PHP Code:var Email ="foo"; setTimeout("location.href = 'http://www.natural-environment.com?Email=+Emai+';",1500);
on page load, check if there is a query string called frmdate. If there is, I set the text box on the page called "myDate" equal to the query string variable.
