Reselecting A Text Field To Edit Without Clearing Current Value?
Jan 6, 2011
I'm currently designing a form with client-side validation using javascript. I've set the input property to display as the value (for example, "your name" inside the name field) and I've set the javascript to clear value using name.focus but everytime I reselect the field to edit the value, it clears again, so I'm trying to make it so that on the 2nd time it get's selected, the nameClear funtion doesn't run.Here's what I've got so far, but it's not working. For some reason, the else statement within the function that runs on .focus is showing as invalid in my debugger, but it looks fine to me.
name.focus(function() {
if(name.val("Your name"))
name.val("");
[code].....

I'm having trouble detecting if there is value in a field when the page loads and manipulating the fields label class accordingly. Below is my code. I'm using it to display the field label inline with the field, and when the user starts typing, the label is hidden. The problem I'm having is, since this is for a login screen, if the user has typed in an incorrect password, the username still remains entered when the page reloads and I see my label stacked underneath.
How can I detect if that field has a value and apply a class to the label to hide it? I don't have to have to specify each field by their ID, because I'd like to use this all over (member profile management area).

I am working with multiple PDF documents. I am able to add a text field to the bottom of my doc's on the last page and upon Print, write 'document expires on "current date"' The text is only visible in print and the date is always current. I need to aply this to over 100 documents on the center bottom of the last page only. And I haven't a clue how to do this in a batch. I have done this so far using the Advanced, document processing.

I have a page with multiple text fields, each of which has an example for an initial value. I've added the appropriate code so that onFocus() the example is cleared away, and a blank field is left behind. Trouble is, I only want that to happen once, so that the field isn't cleared if the user attempts to edit what they wrote earlier. Anybody know of a way to do that with only a few lines of code? Here's my existing code:
Code:
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function clearField(fieldName) {
fieldName.value = "";
}
// -->
</script>
<p>Person's Name: <input type="text" name="name" size="30"
value="John Smith" tabindex="2" onFocus="clearField(this)"></p>

I installed a JS form dependency script. Basically if a checkbox is checked Field A will disappear and Field B will take its place.The script appears to work fine. The problem I am having is this. If someone submits the form using the Field B entry and then they need to submit a form using the Field A entry, the Field B entry is still being passed even though is it is not displayed and Field A has a value in it!So I guess my question is, how do I flush out the form field after the form is submitted? This is just happening with the fields where there is the JS Form Dependency script involved.

I have the following code that I'm using to cycle through each element in a form field, and clear whatever text is in it. If the user clicks out of the field without typing anything then the script is supposed to return to whatever value it started with (e.g. "Enter your name..."). If the user does type something, then it stays in the field even when they click out of it:

I'm using the following PHP/Javascript code to create a drop down list. It's part of a longer group of code which dynamically changes a second drop down list based on what's chosen here. After the user submits their choice, I use PHP to grab relevant information, based on their choice, from my database. They're going to be going through the process several times and it would be great if I could reselect whatever they just posted. Might there be a way to reselect whatever they $_POSTed the first time? If I could have some guidance for this piece of the code,
PHP Code:
$q1=mysql_query("select * from assignments_topics");
echo mysql_error();
$already_listed_chapters=array();[code]....

I need to clear the default value from a textarea when a user clicks on the textarea and then replace it if the user clicks away from the textarea without modifying it. I have managed to accomplish this with the textfields in my forms but I am struggling to get the textarea element to mimic this behavior. Here is the script I am using:

This is some of the script that I have and it works well. The story is that I have a drop down list and depending on the selection a different set of text is displayed below the list.
if (Val == "general")
{
document.getElementById('Link0').innerHTML="<font size=2><a Href='http://www.web1.com/'>web 1</a>"
document.getElementById('Link1').innerHTML="<font size=2><a Href='http://www.web2.com/'>web 2</a>"
However when the selection runs this part of the code:-
[Code]....
The "web 3" text is placed under where the 'Link0' text would have been if there had been some. So basically what I need to do is set the 'Link0' text to nothing and have the 'Link1' text sit in its place. I know I could just put the 'Link1' text in the 'Link0' element but I have other controls on the screen that mean I need to run it as it is.

I have a text field (field1) already displayed on the HTML page. However, there's a link where you can add additional text fields to the page as well. When the link is clicked, the second text field is added successfully (field2), and when the link is clicked again, the third text field (field3) is added successfully. However, the third field does not add itself to the page, and the text for anything greater than a third field also isn't displayed after. This obviously means that my "fields" variable is not working right
<script language="javascript">
fields = 1;
function addMore() {
if (fields = 1) {
document.getElementById('addedMore').innerHTML = "<input type='text' name='field2' size='25' /> <span>Field 2.</span>";

I am using jQuery AJAX to submit a form. When the data has been validated successfully and processed, I want to clear the form, but I am unsure how. I have been trying to make it work for a few hours now.
I am showing status messages in the container below:
When everything was successful, it looks like this:
And here is the simple code I use to clear the text fields:
What I need is a way to check if everything was successful and if so, then run the code above. I tried to do it in a few ways, but it kept clearing regardless of the status.

why isn't this working ok in ie7?:
[URL]
the javascript is:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
/* <![CDATA[ */
function closed_changed(day) {
[Code].....
it should call closed_changed(), which sees if it's ticked/checked, if it is it calls clear_open() and sets the four open related input elements to empty/blank (because a shop can't be open and closed at the same time). works fine in firefox (pc and mac) and safari. not ie7. why not? (the intended clear does happen but only when another subsequent closed box is ticked; it works on the previous day which was ticked; so it's lagging one behind)

Can somebody tell me how I would go about allowing the user
to click on a link to put content in text box A and then another
link to put different content in text box A and so on. Finally,
when onsubmit is fired, all the content created for each individual
link (using the same text box) is sent to SQL Server.
How do I reuse the same text box in this manner?

i am making a website that relies heavily on jquery plugins, i using notepad++ for the creation of the site. for me it is relatively complex (i havent designed websites in a very long time and back then was flash extensive).
my client works very slowly and purposefully and wants his writer to edit the content them self. my concern is making the text easily to find and edit and not being able to damage any of the css, or jquery or html.
what is the best way to accomodate the client needs? i have looked into having it converted to a cms site like joomla but do not know if it is possible or feasible since they like the design but have lots of changes.

I've created a web form page that displays a drop list using an
include (text) file for users showing scheduling dates.
This is a sample of the format;
<option value="July 07, 2003, (Monday), 9:00am">July 07, 2003,
(Monday), 9:00am
<option value="July 07, 2003, (Monday), 9:30am">July 07, 2003,
(Monday), 9:30am
Are there examples of how an .INC file can be brought into a separate
web form so it can be edited by another user for date modification or
remomal?

I am using the breadcrumb script from this website. it's the first one I've found that is working for me! I would like to know if it is possible to have the text that displays for the page be the name of the html document instead of the meta title (because they are too long). Is there a simple place within this code to get the script to pull the file name instead?
example: www.mywebsite/tweezers.html
I want the breadcrumbs to be home > tweezers
But it's giving me home > TDI Precision Tweezers | Electronics Assembly Tweezers | Lab Tweezers | Cleanroom Tweezers

I am trying to adapt the addSlide demo 5 [URL] but instead of using buttons created by css I wish to use images.
So I'm largely okay with that, have found the #nav container and defined my background-image images but these are overwritten by textual digits and I'm not sure where these are generated from. Most likely something in my main.js file though I can't figure out what exactly. I'm using cycle as follows:
$(function() {
var stack = [];
// preload images into an array
for (var i = 3; i < 5; i++) {

Is it possible to dynamically determine the current field element in a
form?
I ask because I have a 'tab' button on a form, and when a user clicks
on it I need to be able to shift the focus to the next field, and also
if the current field is the last field on the form, essentially to do
nothing.
Conceptually, I guess I'm trying to do something like:
function clicktab(){
variable = current.field.element.number;
if (variable < n) {
variable++;
document.forms[0].element[variable].focus;
}}
In the above function, "n" would be the total number of fields in the
form.

I have an HTML contact form on many different pages of a web site. I need to know which page the user was on when they submit the form. I need to pass the URL of the current page as a hidden field through the form when it's submitted. Do I need to add javascript to the header to call a function pulling the URL and then a secondary function to place it in the hidden field's "value" attribute?
