Validation Won't Stop Code From Submitting?
Jun 25, 2009
I've got a simple comment application running on the local Google webapp framework test server, and I'm trying to validate the form w/ Javascript before it gets input to the server and throws an error.
The problem is that the code seems to go through anyway... the Javascript never stops the code from being sent to the server.
I've already checked that Javascript is working on the application, so it must be that my Javascript validation code is bad.
The code is meant to check that the Name field is not empty and that it doesn't have more than 20 characters in it. ("push" is the id for the Submit button, and "name" is the id for the Name input field.)
window.onload = function(){
button = "document.getElementById('push')"
name = "document.getElementById('name')"
button.onsubmit = function Validate(){
[Code].....

I'm having trouble changing the font color of my labels ONLY when I stop the form from submitting due to blank fields. I'm not sure whether if just changing my CSS will achieve what I want, or am I going to have to add somethig to my if else statement, or both? I would think I would need to change CSS to :
label.onfocus {
color:red;
}
but a little confused on what else.

I've put together a pretty simple competition script - it's commented out below and you can find the demo at [URL] (you'll find the code at the bottom of the page) I am using a jquery plugin to achieve the validation: [URL] The problem is only in Firefox (3.5.2) - the form submits without any validation at all, and ignores the ajax. IE8 & 7 seem to be fine. I'm not really sure why Firefox is submitting the page with Refresh but IE isn't, I've looked over and over the code and can't find the error. Firebug is only finding errors in the jQuery library itself.

I have a form that submits on the user hitting the return key instead of the submit button. Searching revealed a javascript to stop it but it only works in IE not Firefox/Mozilla.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function onKeyPress () {
var keycode;
if (window.event) keycode = window.event.keyCode;
else if (e) keycode = e.which;
else return true;
if (keycode == 13) {
alert("Please Click ONCE on the Submit button to send this");
return false
}
return true
}
document.onkeypress = onKeyPress;
// End -->
</script>

There are several forms on this page and I have absolutely no control over them. The page is provided by a 3rd party and all we can do is add javascript.
The form is a google checkout. I need to halt submission (preventDefault) do some stuff and continue the submittion of that form.
This is what I have:
The FORM:

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've setup a form on my website and added a simple validation script to check a few of the fields. After all the validations are done I want the submit button to process two other functions that will handle the submission of the form.
The problem is that if the validation returns true the script just stops and doesn't run the other two functions.
Here is my validation script:
Then on my submit button I have:

I just noticed that if I use a "submit" button the "onSubmit" function call
will be invoked. But if I use a button to call some other javascript and at
the end of that javascrip I do something like "form.submit()" the "onSubmit"
function call will NOT be invoked. I thought that was wierd. Can anyone
shed some light? Here's a small example:
<script type="text/javascript">
function subform()
{
document.frm1.submit();
}
function checkform()
{
alert('checking form');
return true;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="frm1" method="post" action="" onSubmit="return checkform();">
<input type="text" name="txtname"><br>
<input type="submit" name="btnsubmit" value="submit"><br>
<input type="button" name="btn1" value="go" onClick="subform();">
</form>
</body>

I've got some strange behavior with validation. I'm loading up a form to allow editing of an existing database entry. If I make my changes to the fields, enter in the required "revision comments" and submit, the page does NOT post, it seems to only refresh and empty out all the entries in each of the fields. Now, on the other hand if I open the form to make changes to a database entry and immediately press "Submit" without filling in the revision comments field, it fails validation and tells me to enter comments. Now if I fill in comments to satisfy all the requirements and press submit, it posts and I get my "Successful Entry" confirmation prompt. I think I've narrowed it down to the remote: part of my jQuery. I eliminated by trial-and-error the other pieces of the jQuery code and it seems that when I remove the remote: it does not experience this strange behviour.
jQuery Code:
[code]
// Form Validation customization
$("#Form_business").validate({
rules: {

Here is one I cannot seem to figure out. I've got a set of text boxes with the change event bound to a function that will do some validation and add some numbers together. If the user enters something that is not a valid number I want to alert them and then put the focus back on the offending field.
My problem is that the event that I'm capturing is not the actual tab key or mouse click. So even though I set the focus in my event handler, the initial event that started the whole thing still moves the focus to the next field or where ever the mouse was clicked.
I've tried preventDefault, stopPropagation, returning false, and a bunch of other things to no avail. I hope it is something I'm missing or not seeing. If not it seems like my only choice is to capture all the events (key presses, mouse clicks etc. and handle them all which seems rather tedious.

I am building a simple timer. It works ok, but doesn't do everything it is suppose to do. When pos1 reaches 1, it is suppose to reset the timer and display an alert message saying that it has reached the maximum time. It does that just fine but after it resets, it starts over automatically and I don't know why[code]

i need US zip code formatting on my page. as zip code can be 5 digits or 5-4 digits, our requirement is that when user types in 6th digit, hyphen automatically gets added between 5th and 6th digit. ex: user enters 100161,it should become formatted as 10016-1 and then user can continue to add rest of digits.

Here is what I'm trying to do. I have a 12-digit
(UPC-A) javascript validation script which works great. All I need now
is a similar script for 8-digit (UPC-E) type script? I don't want to
convert it to a 12-digit UPC-A before validating it as a 12-digit
number. I would prefer to just be able to calc the number, as an
8-digit number, check digit and all, just like I am currently doing
successfully with this 12-digit validation script: Code:

I'm looking for a script that with look at a list of zip codes and if the zip code the user enters is in the list it directs them to one page, but if their zip code is not in the list it directs them to another page. I don't know much about java, but I can modify scripts to meet my purposes. I just need a reference to scripts that do this sort of thing.

I have created a javascript for form validation. But I want to add some more functions in it. Like it should allow only US zipcodes. Phone Number will be in Number format only. I referred many other sites as well. But its getting difficult to add those new codes in my program.
Here is my Javascript Code:
function validate(){
if(document.Enquiry.FirstName.value==""){
alert("Please enter Name");
document.Enquiry.FirstName.focus();
return false;
}if(document.Enquiry.Address.value==""){
alert("Please enter Your Postal Address");
document.Enquiry.Address.focus();
return false; .....

I'm having a problem with some code, here's the code below:
HTML Code:
If someone hits submit without selecting yes or no the validation pops up asking them to make the selection. After they close out the pop up box the form action still passes them along to the congratulations_aff.php page.
How and why is that passing them on even if they didn't make a selection with the radio buttons?
