I am using the following simple script for validatingmy form:
Code:
When the page is rendered I keep getting a 'Syntax Error'..and it is specific to the validation...but I do not know why. When i remove one of the textboxes from the validation script it works.
I am using the validation plugin, and I would like to cause the error message of one of the validation rules to appear immediately when the page loads, before any actual validation takes place. Can this be accomplished in some way, perhaps using javascript? Below is an example form, I would like the "Field is required" message to appear normally next to the input, as soon as the page loads. When the user edits the content of the input, the message should remain or disappear depending on the validation rule, as normal.
The element named above was found in a context where it is not allowed. This could mean that you have incorrectly nested elements -- such as a "style" element in the "body" section instead of inside "head" -- or two elements that overlap (which is not allowed).
One common cause for this error is the use of XHTML syntax in HTML documents. Due to HTML's rules of implicitly closed elements, this error can create cascading effects. For instance, using XHTML's "self-closing" tags for "meta" and "link" in the "head" section of a HTML document may cause the parser to infer the end of the "head" section and the beginning of the "body" section (where "link" and "meta" are not allowed; hence the reported error).
When I use the HTML tidy tool in Firefox I see the following warning which I want to get rid of . I cleared all the errors and warnings it showed except for this one. I am not able to get rid of this, can someone help me find a solution.
Warning: <iframe> proprietary attribute "onload"
I have the code defined like this where it throws the warning. I have tries different DOCTYPEs ( strict and Transitional) but still the warning persists.
I am trying to fix error- object does not exist- I want it possible to allow object not to exist.
I am writing a script on a page that may or may not include a login form. For example-after a visitor logs in, the login form is no longer on the page, but other content is still there. I want to bring focus to the login form using the onLoad in the body tag.....but if the login form does not exist, I do not want to perform this function.
The following code works fine for focusing the cursor on to the login form.
I am using a validating form plug in for jquery and I have a question about it. Let this function will be an ex.:
[Code]....
'e' is the name attribute of one form element, but can I choose more elements using jquery (CSS) rules like this: input[name*=e] or how can I do something similar?
When I put the in, I get the error message "object doesn't support this action". I've also tried putting in after the </body> tag as another script...no go.
I'm setting the cookie with these lines in another function: varScroll = document.body.scrollTop;document.cookie("Position") = varScroll;
Any clues/suggestions greatly appreciated. I recently posted a similar question, but rearranged how I was doing it, still no luck, so I'm trying again.
Line 9, Column 33: required attribute "type" not specified <script src="lite_validation.js"></script> The attribute given above is required for an element that you've used, but you have omitted it. For instance, in most HTML and XHTML document types the "type" attribute is required on the "script" element and the "alt" attribute is required for the "img" element. Typical values for type are type="text/css" for <style> and type="text/javascript" for <script>.

i have found a possible bug in 1.4 but it's only in Internet Explorer 7 & 8.The following code does not work and completely ruins every peice of jquery on the page (that means everything inside $(document).ready and anyting else...
I cant see any syntax errors - i pulled the example from the 1.4 site. There is no trailing commas in the object notation and i really cant see any reason it would work in firefox and not IEx and more to the point not only not work in IEx but break any other jquery in the entire page....
I'm having a hard time figuring out why the onload event is not being called for the frameset window in the following simple example. It is being called for each of the component frames. Code:
I'm working with a large (and unweildy) ASP.NET application, and there is a lot of jQuery code that uses selectors like this:
[name=_aspnetControl$_withASubControl] And unfortunately, some selectors that also look like this:
[name^=_someAspNetControl$_radioButtonList].
In other words, the effort to remove the $ from the attribute selectors would be monumental. If it is possible to escape the $ symbols, I can do that easily enough, but unfortunately the situation right now means that I can't upgrade to jQuery 1.5.
I'm learning jQuery with XML. I'm familiar with other query languages such as XPath. I'm having a little bit of difficulty wrapping my brain around how jQuery works but I think I can make the leap if I see a solution to a problem I know how to solve with other methods Given the following XML, please share a jQuery solution to finding the value of attribute B in elements named bar where attribute A has the value 30:
Specifically, window.onload appears to fire before all the elements of the page have been rendered. As the difference is consistent across IE/Moz/Opera, I'm assuming it's deliberate - can anyone point me towards where this behaviour of window.onload is defined in the documentation? TIA. Code:
I'll trying to tell the difference between the following three cases:
<img alt="text string" /> <img alt="" /> <img />
I can do this in Firefox with the following code, where elem is the HTMLElement representing each image, but IE doesn't seem to differentiate between empty string and undefined.
var alt = elem.getAttribute('alt'); alt = (alt) ? alt : ((alt===null) ? 'really_null' : "");
The desired output from running this code on the 3 tags above is:
text string
really_null
It seems like this should be really easy...but I'm having a really difficult time trying to figure out what's going on...
The problem is when i will calculate if quantitiy/buyquantitiy is an integer. The reason is that some products can only be seld as 4 items, and if you press 3 wou should get a message that says "Sorry a quantity of 3 are not aviable because there are 4 items in package". Can transfer 2 varibales into the function? Or have anyone any suggestion how to solve this.
I am a newbie to javascript. I have an asp text box which I want to validate for the number of characters entered i.e. I dont want user to enter more than 280 characters in the text box.
I have a form generated from a Perl script. The number of check boxes on the form is unknown until the time the form is generated. The names of the check boxes are created from some values in the database, based upon other user input.......<crazy, I know>
The user must choose at least one check box.
So, how can I write a javascript routine that will perform checking on an unknown number of check boxes.
Can anyone explain why this code fails when the set of checkboxes consists of only one.
myForm.update.length returns 0 instead of 1 with the result that I get an alert box even tho' the one checkbox is checked.
function checkForm(myForm) { var numBoxes = 1*myForm.update.length || 0; for(i=0;i<numBoxes;i++) { if(myForm.update[i].checked == true) return true; } alert("Select one or more part components to update"); return false; }}
I have a requirement whereby I must validate that a string matches one of several patterns:
1. An ISO standard 2 character country code (eg GB, NL) followed by five digits.
2. An ISO standard 2 character country code (eg GB, NL) followed by an X followed by five digits.
3. 3 characters in the range a-z followed by 3 digits followed by 2 characters in a specific set (eg MT, AT, DA).
4. 4 characters followed by a hash (#) followed by 3 characters followed by 3 digits followed by a hash followed by 3 characters.
5. 4 characters followed by a hash (#) followed by 3 characters followed by 3 digits followed by a hash followed by 4 characters.
I have been told that a better way to achieve this than using .charAt is by using something called a regular expression, but I don't really understand them. Can anyone please advise on the above or alternatively point me in the direction of a suitable resource on these regular expression things?
I am trying to write a js that validates a form with two text inputs. The two inputs are: 'D_techA' and 'D_techB'. I just want to add up (sum) the two input fields (which must be positive numbers) and make sure that they add up to exactly 100 (not more and not less). If they do not add up to 100, then an alert should pop up that says "The two values must add up to exactly 100." I have tried and tried to write a js that does this validation (looking at numerous validation scripts posted in this forum and elsewhere) and I just cannot seem to make it work.
I am validating a page (image attached) to make sure that total hours entered do not exceed the allocated amount, which is stored in the database. I have already validated to make sure that they enter a number and that it is not greater than 8.
var returncode = true var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName("INPUT") for(var x=0; x<inputs.length; x++) {
