Validating A Form With Options

Jan 12, 2008

I am helping someone out with a form. He wants the name required, easy enough, but then only an email or street address required. I have tried a couple of things and it is not working.

I am trying a very simple code:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--

function validate_form ( )
{
valid = true;

if ( document.contact_form.name_mailing.value == "" )
{
alert ( "Please fill in the 'Your Name' box." );
valid = false;
}

if ( document.contact_form.address_mailing.value == "" || document.contact_form.email_address.value == "")
{
alert ( "Please fill in the 'Your Information' box." );
valid = false;
}

return valid;
}

//-->
</script>

Am I not using the or operator correctly? I only want to have the address or email required, not necessarily both.

Validating A Form Within Itself?

Jan 30, 2011

I have a form that is passed to itself. I was just wondering if there was a way to get this to validate before it passed to itself.I was assuming that as the form doesn't properly submit, I could not use onsubmit="return sValidation()", so I have it on the buttons onclick. Correct assumption or not? Is there a way round this at all and to get it to validate?

<form action="" method="post" name="searchform" >
<table width="200" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" class="adforms">
<tr>

Validating Uniqueness Of Form Inputs

Jul 20, 2005

I have a form with a few text boxes which need to be validated client-side.
The validation is: check that every single text box has a unique string value.
I.e., I need to check that there are no two textboxes that both contain,
for example, the string 'hello'.

Is there an efficient way to do this kind of validation in javascript?

Validating A Form By Firing Events

Nov 27, 2002

This script allows you to replay the event-controls coded on your INPUT tags.

You must have a <div id="msgErreur"></div> in your HTML page.

PS : I'm working for an Intranet Webapp. All the users are on IE6.
So i don't mind with NS compatibility

-----------------

// Wait the end of load before manipulating elements
window.onload=doLoad;

function doLoad() {
if (document.forms.length > 0) {
for(i=0;i<document.forms.length;i++) { document.forms[i].onsubmit=doSubmit; }
}
}

function doSubmit() {
if (document.all["msgErreur"]!=null) {
if (document.forms.length > 0) {
message=document.all.msgErreur.innerText;
message=''
for(i=0;i<document.forms.length;i++) {
for(j=0;j<window.document.forms[i].elements.length;j++) {
cible=window.document.forms[i].elements[j];
if (target.value!='') {
cible.fireEvent("onchange");
cible.fireEvent("onfocus");
cible.fireEvent("onblur");
if (message!='') {return false;}
}
}
}
}
}
}

Validating Multiple Checkboxes In Form?

Feb 17, 2009

I have some checkboxes in a form that I'd like to validate (check to ensure that at least one has been ticked):
HTML Code:
<input type="checkbox" name="response[]" value="answer1" />answer1
<input type="checkbox" name="response[]" value="answer2" />answer2
<input type="checkbox" name="response[]" value="answer3" />answer3
<input type="checkbox" name="response[]" value="answer4" />answer4

The javascript below only works if I change my checkbox names to name="response" rather than name="response[]".
Code:
function validateform(){
var success = false;
for (i = 0; i < document.surveyform.response.length; i++){
if (document.surveyform.response[i].checked){
success = true;
}} return success;
}

I need to pass along multiple checkbox responses to my PHP script and therefore need to keep checkboxes named name="response[]". When I do this, I get the error "document.surveyform.response has no properties"
What change I can make to the javascript so that I can name my checkboxes name="responses[]" ?

JQuery :: Validate :: Validating For Incremental Form?

Sep 10, 2009

I have the form:

<form>
<div id="portion1">
... some inputs ...
</div>

[code]....

By default, only #portion1 is visible. If inputs inside it are all valid, #portion2 will be visible and #portion1 will be hidden, and so
on. The problem is that jQuery Validate will only validate the whole form, so something like $('#portion1').validate().form() won't work.

I am somewhat a noob at js/jquery so I wasn't sure exactly how to do this. Think I just need a push in the right direction. Basically I'm trying to validate a form (jquery validation) with a couple of conditionals based on a selection box. So I have:

<form id="info" class="validate">
<select id="select">
<option value="senior">Senior Citizen</option>

[code]...

I'm trying to validate that if the user has selected "Senior Citizen" then their age must be 65 or older (and validate the adult/child ages as well).

Validating A Form Field If Radio Button Is Checked

Dec 2, 2004

I have a form that makes visible a text field when a specific radio button is checked. That works. Then I validate to see if a radio button is checked before I let the form be submitted. That works.

BUT - I cannot seem to get it to validate the form field that is made visible to see if it has content or at least the proper content when the form is submitted. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong please?

I can give more info on what kind of validation I want done if needed, but I think my code speaks for itself Code:

Validating 2 Form Fields And Setting Focus Not Working

Mar 5, 2006

I am trying to throw in some client-side validation to my php web form. My problem is that only one field is actually getting validated. Here is the code:

Form: onSubmit="return checkForm(this);"

script: function checkForm(form) {
var firstname = document.getElementById("wpFirstName").value;
var lastname = document.getElementById("wpLastName").value;

if (firstname == "") {
document.getElementById("firstNameError").style.display="inline";
document.getElementById("wpFirstName").select();
document.getElementById("wpFirstName").focus();
return false;
}else if (lastname == "") {
document.getElementById("lastNameError").style.display="inline";
document.getElementById("wpLastName").select();
document.getElementById("wpLastName").focus();
return false;
}
return true;
}

The if statement evaluating the last name field is the only statement that evaluates to true. It seems the first statment is bypassed. Any ideas? PS. the element with the id lastNameError/firstNameError is in a div tag.
