Blank Field Validation Ignored By FF And IE?

Mar 11, 2011

I have a three field contact form on an HTML5 page. Using CSS3/HTML5 techniques, the fields change state as the info is entered properly (green OK symbol if good, red "!" if not, etc). That all works as expected in all browsers.

My final hurdle is preventing the form being submitted with nothing entered in the fields. I have done hours of research and have tried several ways of writing the checkFeedbackForm function. My problem is that none of the solutions I've found are recognized by FireFox (mac and pc) and IE. They just ignore the javascript and allow the empty form to be emailed.

Jquery :: Ajax Validation - How To Blank Out Field In Form

Feb 28, 2011

I have a scenario where I have the following jquery
Code:
$("#frompdc<?php echo $JavaCnt;?>").change(function(){
var id = $('#id<?php echo $JavaCnt;?>').attr('value');
var frompdc = $('#frompdc<?php echo $JavaCnt;?>').attr('value');
var topdc = $('#topdc<?php echo $JavaCnt;?>').attr('value');
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "AJ_Update.php",
data: "firm=y&id="+ id + "&frompdc=" + frompdc&topdc=" + topdc
});

And some php to insert this data
Code:
mysql_query("UPDATE TBLTRANSFERS SET FROMPDC = ".$_POST['frompdc'].", MOD_TS = '". $timenow ."' WHERE ID = ".$_POST['id']);

I'm trying to throw some validation in here which I can do in php (a language that I'm much more proficient in) but can't figure out how to get the two together. I want to be able to do a select against another table I have for both the frompdc and the topdc.
Code:
$tofpdcresult = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tbltransferspdcexclusions where FROMPDC = '".$frompdc."' AND TOPDC = '".$topdc."'");
$tofpdcnum_rows = mysql_num_rows($tofpdcresult);
And if it exists I want to give a popup message to the user as well as blank out the field.

I'm struggling with two things:
How do I get ajax to run two queries and return the results to a popup window?
How do I blank out the field in the form?

Drop Down List Validation

Apr 7, 2005

i was just wondering how I would validate a drop down list.

<select name="additional-info" id="additional-info" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 8pt">
<option value=""></option>
<option value="Small">Small</option>
<option value="Medium">Medium</option>
<option value="Large">Large</option>
<option value="X Large">X Large</option>
<option value="XXL">XXL</option>
</select>

I submit via a link <a href> i don't know if thats any use. When the list is at nothing (the first opinon) I need an alert box to say select a size and to return false.

Populate Text Field From Drop Down List

May 1, 2009

how to create a somewhat simple form. The form will have text fields for 'Name', 'Phone', etc. What I want is to have a drop down list, which has different insurances to choose from (i.e. Medical Insurance, Dental Insurance, Senior products), and say when I choose 'Senior Products', new text fields pop up within the form to add their 'Address' and click a checkbox that states they authorize to be contacted. These new fields aren't visible unless they choose 'Senior Products' from the drop down list.

Dynamic Drop Down List Based On Text Field Value

Nov 25, 2009

I have a form that has a pretty complicated combo box - a user starts typing text, it queries a database for matches, and displays the results to the user. The user can then select the match they desire and it has a value id, which I am currently sending to a hidden field in the form. So, for example: user starts typing in a movie name, Seven - it returns Seven and user selects it. The form submits the id of the movie seven (say 12) to a hidden field.

Where I am stumped: Once a user selects a movie title, I have another drop down select box that is to display the available formats of the movie by querying my database based on the product id (12) and returning the available formats in the list:

DVD
BLUERAY
VHS

I am pretty good at programming, but I cannot figure this out - how to make the select box fire and return results once the value for the textbox has been captured.

Removechild - Create A Drop Down List Which Depend To The Value Selected From The Previous Drop Down List

Jul 28, 2010

I am trying to create a drop down list which depend to the value selected from the previous drop down list. I can add it without problem, but If I change again the value of the first drop down list I would like to remove the previous drop down list generated from the first value. If I try to remove it when I create the element, it even does not create the element, the remove element function seems to work because when you click on the remove link it works.

Form Sending Blank Emails After Validation?

Jul 13, 2010

I have a couple of forms which use JS validation and if the validation checks out the forms action is a new php page which sends the form (see code below). It all works fine but occasionally blank emails come through. After researching some people say I shouldn't use client side validation. Is there an easier way by tweaking the code I have rather than changing it all completely?

<script language="php">
$email = $HTTP_POST_VARS[email];
$mailto = "info@xxxxxxxx.com";
$mailsubj = "mail form";

NaN Returned When Field Is Blank?

Feb 19, 2009

The following code is my form, if one of the fields is left blank (and there will usually be one left blank) the calculation returns NaN and will not perform the task needed. I initially had the form set to calculate in metric kilometers and liters, when I converted the math portion to miles and gallons it started doing this.This is the line giving me the problems:

var cars_emissions=(((mileage1/efficiency1)*0.3732417216/1000)+((mileage2/efficiency2)*0.3732417216/1000)+((mileage3/efficiency3)*0.3732417216/1000));

How To Keep The Default Text Field Blank

Oct 14, 2011

When a user has entered text into form fields and hits the Save button, the text is saved into local storage. When they hit the Load button at a later date, the text fields are populated.If the user does NOT enter text and hits the Load button, the default empty text fields are populated with the word "undefined." How do I keep the field blank? Because if they do this accidentally, they'll be hitting the back button repeatedly to delete the word in every field (this is on an iPhone).Here is the Load code:

Code:
/*
* Insert data into form fields from local storage.

Display <div> If Text Field Left Blank?

Mar 20, 2011

what's wrong with this code to check if a text field is blank and either display/hide the <div> accordingly.

Code:
<SCRIPT language=javascript type=text/javascript>
function validateForm(order)
{
{

[Code]....

The <div> (id='name') is displayed if nothing is entered and the user clicks submit, however if the user then enters a value into the text field, and re-submits, the <div> still appears.

JQuery :: Null - Undefined - Empty - Drop Down Option Is Selected In A Drop Down List ?

Oct 25, 2011

I am asking jQuery to tell me which drop down option is selected in a drop down list - like this:

I would like to check if this was successful before I proceed. What are the possible return values for this statement?

If no id exists.
If no option is selected.
If some other problem occurred.

In these cases am I expecting a null return; an undefined return, a false return value?

And, based upon the complete set of return possibilities, what would be the best and most comprehensive tests I could apply to cover every base.

JQuery :: Validate : Require A Blank Text Field?

Oct 26, 2010

I'm trying to set up a form that has a text field that is required to be blank - I'm dealing with form spam, and the bots are stuffing every text field with random crap. So, I have a text box that is required to be blank. But I can't get jquery.validate to understand both required and blank.the text input is has a name and id of live_check.I have added this method:

$.validator.addMethod("equalToParam", function(value, element, param) {return value == param;});

and then my rules look like this:

rules: {
first_name: "required",
last_name: "required",[code]...

But validate flags the empty text box as invalid (because it's required?)

Mailing List - Opens A Blank Windows Email With The Correct Address Filled In

Dec 14, 2010

I am developing a website as part of a university project and I have been trying to integrate the java script mailing list from this website into a page. [URL] The only modification I have made is to change the mailto address to my email. When I test the script it just opens a blank windows email with the correct address filled in. Is this because I am working on a copy on my hard drive? If I were to upload this to a server would it work correctly or would I have to modfiy the code in any way.

Multiple Drop Down With Dynamic List (PHP - MySql - AJAX) - Filter The Results Into A List

Aug 2, 2011

I have a table that has parts with multiple characteristics. Part Number, Height, Width, Capacity, Price, Etc. I would like to have a drop downs for all of these values, when a user selects one of these values it will filter the results into a list. Ex. user selects a part that has a Height of 6 and width of 10 it will only list those parts. As I said earlier, I have a script that will give me all the parts, however I am not able to make the onchange list parts with multiple values.

JQuery :: Limit If A Value Can Be Selected In A Drop Down List (select) Based On Other List

Jun 9, 2009

I have a page that displays a list of people playing in a tournament. I need to be able to generate a Leaderboard based on which players are manually selected by the admin. Next to each person there is a drop-down list. An admin can go in and select a "slot" that a player should be in on the leader board from 1 to 8, or leave it blank if none. What I need to figure out how to do is the following, when a change event happens on a drop-down list, and say the value 5 is selected, I need to check to make sure that 5 is not already selected in one of the other players drop-down lists, in other words, that the 5th leaderboard slot is not already full. if it is, display an error message and make them change that one first. how to do that with jQuery? I'm thinking it will have something to do with the each() function, but not sure exactly how the logic should work.

Validate A Web Form - Sending Email Alerts With Every Field Blank

Jul 13, 2011

I am trying to validate a web form. Someone else wrote the Html code and implemented it with an iframe using asp and php. I didn't want to mess too much with the code so I decided to use javascript to make the form validate, before it was sending email alerts with every field blank. For the most part the validation works but it skips the email field for some reasons and is really bugging me to death. this is the code:

<head>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="CSS/style.css"/>
<title>Bid Form</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<script src="gen_validatorv4.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">

PHP Drop Down List Selection Populates Second Dropdown List Or Text Box?

Jul 13, 2011

I have been struggling on a bit of code for a while now. I need to populate a second drop down list (Region) based upon the selection of the first (County).I have found a piece of code that works on its own and have adapted to suit my needs - see below. However, when I drop it into my main page the javascript is not working. It's because of the formObject but I just don't know enough to resolve this! Furthermore, I need the textboxes the user has already completed in the form to retain their value once the javascript kicks in as the completed form will submit to a database.This piece of code is working well . . . .

<?php

$link = mysql_connect('myhost', 'myusername', 'mypassword') or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('mydatabase') or die('Could not select database');[code]......
