Write A Script That Adds An Extra Field To A Form When Needed
Feb 11, 2010
I have been trying to write a script that allows a user to click on a button like a plus sign to add an additional field for a phone number when they have more than one phone number to enter. I have created a script that sort of does this. It doubles up what is already there, so, the first time, everything is fine, but after that I get a lot more fields than I want. I am a php programmer and not familiar enough with javascript to get to what I want. My script is included below. What I am doing here is retrieving the html content and then adding it to what is already there. In php I would use an if conditional test to see if the data has been retrieved.
The first time it would retrieve the data into a variable. After that it would not retrieve it. I think I am getting into some scope and sequence issues here. Javascript is a bit different than php in these regards. Also there is a commented line in the code that asks another question about the use of variables that I don't understand. I also tried using appendChild() here to no avail. I couldn't get that to work at all.

I'm stuck with this one since my knowledge of javascript is very low, PHP I'm ok with but this is a new language to me. Anyway, I have a form (a table-less one) which I would like to have the ability to add extra file fields if needed. One is already placed but I would like the user to have the option to add more photos. Here's my html:

I am trying to find a way to add an extra piece of hidden text onto the end of the text a user enters into the form field so that when the form is sent the extra text will automatically be added to the end before sending. I have tried cobbling together different scripts using onblur/onclick etc but I just cannot get any to work as I need..

I need the value of my drop down box options to contain size information rather than price. However I would like to be able to calculate a price for the items based on what size the user selects as well as the quantity. Below is the code I came up with (which doesn't work obviously)What can I do to get this to work for me?

Using the url test.html?a=john&b=doe
I am using the following code:
I can't seem to get an alert to show me anything. The eventual result is not an alert, but a document.write to post the url contents to various form fields for firstname= and lastname= etc.
I am really having a hard time using the document.write function, and am not sure how to employ it, whether in the same script statement or in a separate script in the body.

I was wondering if there was a way to dynamically read a field input and respond to it later in the form. My situation is this: I have a question that asks how many workers are employed at a business. Later in the form, the user is asked to add as many workers as they have (section with information on each worker) ..Is there a way I can have something echoed or document.write above the latter section saying "Please add (Number of workers listed above) sections for each worker employed"

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 have a form with a name, and action, a post method.
In rare occasion I want the form action to be different to the default
action, so I do this: document.formName.action = "newURL";
This works fine under Mozilla, but does not work under IE5, 5.5 or 6,
it says: Object doesn't support this property or method.
Does anyone know what could be wrong?

I have two js scripts running on my project at the moment, one is uses mootools and the other uses jquery-1.2.3min, both work but not if they are on the same page.The mootool adds the pop out effect to a form box and the jquery enables the nav switch for 2 boxes that contain different form fields for a search engine. Now I've been reading up on the two and have decided to favour jquery which means I have to reproduce the same effect in mootool but with my limited knowledge it's proven rather hard.The mootool code:
var isExtended = 0;
var height = 165;
var width = 240;

I have a working contact form with 3 of the fields requiring validation and they work well. I have added extra fields to the form (StatusClass, Project, CameFrom). These 3 fields return fine but I need to validated them. My problem is that the new fields don't show in the behaviours/validate panel even though they are within the form tag.
<script type="text/JavaScript">
<!--
function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01
var p,i,x; if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}

I am trying to use a code snippet fromthe code works fine however what I want to do is modify it so that when the user clicks the link to add another entry their would be a drop down <select> box to the left of the text input box. Which I have working but each time the link is clicked to add a new <select> and text input box row the previous <select> dropdowns seem to loose their values and only the text input boxes keep their values. So I am not sure where/how to edit my below code to work properly
Code:

var arrInput = new Array(0);

I've added file upload support to the form plugin and I could use some help testing it out.If this feature interests you then go ahead and grab the beta plugin at:URL...File upload support is baked right into the plugin and there are no external dependencies.The plugin will automatically detect file input elements and use an iframe to submit the form if there are files to be uploaded.No extra coding or metadata is needed to take advantage of this new feature.In addition, even though an iframe is used instead of the XHR object, callbacks and global triggers still work as expected (so any code that you have in place to display activity indicators or blocking elements will still work).However, there are some challenges when using iframes in this manner.For one, it is quite difficult to determine if the submit operation succeeded or failed.The iframe becomes the target of the submit operation and so that is where the server response is written.The form plugin does its best to determine the data type (html, xml, etc),but the status is always 'success' unless an exception is caught during the type determination.URL...
If you use this page for testing *please* be kind to my server and only upload small files! I'd really prefer that you download the plugin and integrate it into your own test environment if possible.I've done some testing on FF, IE and Opera and the results are encouraging. I don't have access to Safari so I'm sure there are issues lurking for that platform.If you're interested in the code you can find it all tucked into the end of the ajaxSubmit method in a function called "fileUpload".

Mootools 1.3 user here. I am just wondering if I can pass extra data along with form values when I use the $('myform').submit(); method.
I am wondering if there's anyway to attach data the same way you do with a Request object (ie: Request.send(data) or do I have to create hidden inputs in my form to pass the values?
The reason is some parts of my form are dynamic. The user can add as many entries as he wants. Those entries are stored in an object that's a module's property (Modyle.property = {obj, obj, obj}).
I am wondering if I'll have to iterate through the entries and create hidden inputs for each before submitting the form or can I just create a string that I can pass with my Form.submit() statement?

I have a web form with several fields. If I copy & paste from a RTF document into a field, the javascript validation and field length are bypassed and cause the form to fail.

I have a little bit of Javascript that runs fine, but I am trying to write some XML out so that it is the value of a hidden field. When I put it in the hidden field, it just shows the javascript instead of the value.
So, instead of showing the value of i++ it is showing <script>i++</script>
What I want it to show:
What it is showing
It works in the regular page, just not when I make it the value of the hidden form field. Sorry, kinda new to javascript.

this is my first thread here, but I've read your forum a lot as unregistered user. I've searched the web for a complete Javascript or some hint, but I didn't find an interesting script or article to implement what I've thought. There's a way to write text or number from the keyboard directly in a:
<input type="text" name="display" value="0" maxlength="10" disabled="disabled">

I am a newbie in this field and never have done any scripting as i dont belong to this field.Just now trying to learn html and javascript. I have written a very simple HTML code having a table containing some columns like market,account number,user id,racf id etc. Below given is my code:
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>E 1.3</title>
<h3> Information regarding various markets is given below</h3>

<body ALINK="#FF0000" LINK="#0000FF" VLINK="#FF33FF" bgcolor="#FFFFCC">
<table border="1" bgcolor="#CCFFCC" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="5">

This code i completely html but i am posting here in javascript forum because i need a javascript function which can be embedded in this html code so that the columns account number and and user id become editable. Means: this code is not complete as of now.In account number and user id column i can enter at the max three strings for every market.The whole page will be static only except the account number and user id field in the table.My question is how to make this particular column editable.Means i need to have two buttons.Clicking first button makes the field editable and i can edit the column and when i click the other button eg:save or something then the cuesor automatically goes away and the page becomes uneditable until i click the first button.

The following form validation script works, currently if one of the five fields are completed, a message appears the remaining field(s) must be completed etc. Although the information the user has inputted in the first field is cleared. How can this information be available, if there is one problem in the form it doesn't make sense that the user must re-input all the information again. I look forward to hearing your response,
function validate_form ( )
{
valid = true;

my javascript code is only validating one field at a time (as in it validates on field then submits the form, instead of going through the entire thing and then returning it as true and submitting it...) I'm not sure what to do to be honest, I've looked up google to no real avail.. my variables are declared in a seperate file to the actual even handlers and I have heaps of comments through out it, so please don't judge lol i'm still learning Quote:
//Event Registrations (Variable Declarations) found in validation_chkr.js
//Validate Entire Form using validate_join()
function validate_join()

I'm trying to write a generic/reusable form validator in Javascript...
just something that checks to make sure required fields have a value. By
generic I mean I don't want to explicitly reference the name/id of the
form or the name of any of the data fields within a "validation"
function.
My first shot seems to have some errors in it:
FieldsToValidateByForm = {};
FieldsToValidateByForm['contact'] = ["FirstName",
"LastName","State","Email"];
function validate(form)
{
problemFields = new Array();
returnval = true;
FieldsToValidate = FieldsToValidateByForm[form.id];
for(i=0; i < FieldsToValidate.length; i++) {
fieldInQuestion = form[FieldsToValidate[i]];
if(fieldInQuestion.value.length < 1) //problem spot?
problemFields.push(FieldsToValidate[i]);
}
if(problemFields.length > 0) {
returnval = false;
warn(problemFields); /* tells user they're missing a field,
that's all */
}
return returnval;
}
What I think is happening (not sure) is that the expression
form[fieldsToValidate[i]] is not giving me what I want: a reference to
the object corresponding to the form field with the same name. In
otherwords, I must have some fundamental misunderstanding of how the DOM
works here. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a good enough reference
to set me straight....

When users goes to my page (main window) and click on a link, it pops up a new window, and that window contains more links.
When users click on the links on the popped up page, i want some text to be added into a textbox on the main window.
so like if the textbox has "Text1"
and when user clicks on that link, the textbox will now have: "Text1 link.."
