HTML - Check Box Group Confusion
Hey folks -
Everywhere I've read states that if I give a series of checkboxes the same name, then upon hitting submit, I will get a comma separated list of the values. But, that just isn't working for me. I have this code : Code: <html><body> <form method="get"> <input name="input" size="30" maxlength="100" id="searchbox" value="test" /><br /> <input type="checkbox" name="referBy" value="td"/> Test driven a vehicle<br/> <input type="checkbox" name="referBy" value="dlr"/> Visited an autotmotive dealer<br/> <input type="checkbox" name="referBy" value="veh"/> Purchased/Leased a vehicle<br/> <input type="checkbox" name="referBy" value="ins"/> Purchased automobile insurance<br/> <input type="submit" value="Submit"/> </form> </body> </html> But, it results in this for the URL - ...../s_r2.htm?input=test&referBy=td&referBy=dlr Any thoughts Maybe I'm missing a step or a setting Syl Similar TutorialsHi Hope someone can help and old silver surfer who is completely confused. I have built a site http://beautyadvicestore.com/skincare using dreamweaver with the following result. In IE7 the sales page is OK until 75% down when the black background obscures the print. This is the only fault apart from the fact I have not loaded one of the pictures (a small matter) In Firefox the sales page is OK all the way down but when I try to load the articles from 'Tips Tricks and Secrets' at the bottom of the sales page which goes to an article index page http://beautyadvicestore.com/skincare/articleindex.php the articles load without the graphics. I have tried saving the articles as html and php formats with no difference all graphics show in IE7 but not in Firfox. Strange thing is it is ONLY the articles that this happens all other pages are OK Privacy- about us- contact us etc. All have graphics. I have used the same template throughout only adding text. Can anyone help to show what I am doing wrong this is the first time this has happened in my limited experience. regards Okay, I have a problem. I haven't been doing this long, but when I coded my website, it looked fine the way it was (in Firefox), but I recently checked the look in Opera and Internet Explorer, and the whole layout falls apart. I have no idea what the problem is, can anyone suggest some possible problems? Here is the URL: Homepage EDIT: My message was over 10,000 characters, so please view the source code. Thank you. I'm trying to re-do and validate all my 100+ websites; this one is the most recent: http:// www.sticksite.com/cook/indexNEW.html and after "Tidy" cleaned it up I now have the very top looking like this which I know is not right: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/loose.dtd"> <!-- <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> --> <html> <head> <meta name="generator" content="HTML Tidy for Linux (vers 1 September 2005), see www.w3.org"> <meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="content-type"> <title>Fast, nutritious meals</title> My pages are nothing fancy, I just want them to work.

Many thanks in advance! ok, ive made a form that allows people send comments to my email, this is the first form ive made http://www.freewebs.com/narcotica/contact.htm but the form does not work i have checked website and i still cant work out why it wont work, the same message comes up "This form is inoperational!" so please could someone help me here. Thanks, Narc Hello all. This is my first post here. I have a question regarding tables, divs, just basically anything to do with that area, etc. I am making a simple javascript calculator, and what I want to do with it is put it in a table. Just simple forms, buttons, tables, and divs. My problem, however, is that I need to have the operators (add, minus, subtract, divide buttons) centered along the bottom across. Right now, the code is causing the buttons to be in somewhat a "grid" and stuck to the right side of the table. I've tried <div align="right">, i've also tried <td align="right">.. Yet with no luck. I kindly ask for anyone generous enough to help me to please review my code I'm going to paste into this message. Thanks for reading. tl;dr: I need the buttons on the bottom to be centered horizontally, not stacked and positioned in the right side of the table. ps. if I was unclear about anything, please ask me, and I will try my best to explain. index.html Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "~//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>Document Title</title> <meta name="Generator" content="x" /> <meta name="Author" content="x" /> <meta name="Keywords" content="x" /> <meta name="Description" content="This is a simple calculator" /> <style type="text/css"> body { background-color:#d0e4fe; } #btnadd { background-color:white; border-color:#0000FF; color:blue; font-size:15px; } #btnminus { background-color:white; border-color:#0000FF; color:blue; font-size:15px; } #btndiv { background-color:white; border-color:#0000FF; color:blue; font-size:15px; } #btnmult { background-color:white; border-color:#0000FF; color:blue; font-size:15px; } h1 { color:orange; text-align:center; } p { font-family:"Times New Roman"; font-size:20px; } </style> <script language="javascript"> function fadd() { var first,sec,res; //Take the value of first textbox and convert it to float first=parseFloat(document.forms[0].txt1st.value); //Take the value of second textbox and convert it to float sec=parseFloat(document.forms[0].txt2nd.value); res=first+sec; //show the result in alertbox alert("the result is "+res); //show the result in the result textbox document.forms[0].txtresult.value=res; } function fminus() { var first,sec,res; //Take the value of first textbox and convert it to float first=parseFloat(document.forms[0].txt1st.value); //Take the value of second textbox and convert it to float sec=parseFloat(document.forms[0].txt2nd.value); res=first-sec; //show the result in alertbox alert("the result is "+res); //show the result in the result textbox document.forms[0].txtresult.value=res; } function fdiv() { var first,sec,res; //Take the value of first textbox and convert it to float first=parseFloat(document.forms[0].txt1st.value); //Take the value of second textbox and convert it to float sec=parseFloat(document.forms[0].txt2nd.value); res=first/sec; //show the result in alertbox alert("the result is "+res); //show the result in the result textbox document.forms[0].txtresult.value=res; } function fmult() { var first,sec,res; //Take the value of first textbox and convert it to float first=parseFloat(document.forms[0].txt1st.value); //Take the value of second textbox and convert it to float sec=parseFloat(document.forms[0].txt2nd.value); res=first*sec; //show the result in alertbox alert("the result is "+res); //show the result in the result textbox document.forms[0].txtresult.value=res; } function pushButton(buttonValue) { if (buttonValue == 'C') { document.getElementById('txt1st').value = ' '; document.getElementById('txt2nd').value = ' '; } else { document.getElementById('txt1st', 'txt2nd').value += buttonValue; } } </script> </head> <body> <form name="cal" method="post" action=""> <table width="310px" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="20px"> <tr> <td width="40%"><div align="left">Enter 1st number </div></td> <td width="81%"><input name="txt1st" type="text" id="txt1st"></td> </tr> <tr> <td><div align="left">Enter 2nd number </div></td> <td><input name="txt2nd" type="text" id="txt2nd"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="28"><div align="left">Result </div></td> <td height="28"><input name="txtresult" type="text" id="txtresult"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="21"> <div align="left"> </div></td> <td width="100%"> <input name="btnadd" type="button" id="btnadd" value="Add" onclick="fadd()"> <input name="btnminus" type="button" id="btnminus" value="Subtract" onClick="fminus()"> <input name="btndiv" type="button" id="btndiv" value="Divide" onClick="fdiv()"> <input name="btnmult" type="button" id="btnmult" value="Multiply" onClick="fmult()"> <br> <input name="btnClr" type="button" id="btnClr" value="C" onclick="pushButton(this.value);"> </td> </tr> </table> </form> </body> </html> To further explain how I wish the buttons to be positioned: Go here > http://koderguru.com/tutorials/javas...culatorex1.php.

My site does not have any doctype code on it and works fine, however been playing about with some jquery script and it wanted a doctype on my site to work. I have tried all the different doctypes listed on the w3 site and all make my site look strange and text/images all over the place the only way the site looks ok is without doctype. please advise the site in question is http://virtualhunterston.eu.org example test page with doctype added http://www.virtualhunterston.eu.org/...0-%20Copy1.htm Here's my code: HTML Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Language" content="EN-GB"> <html> <head> <title>History Project - Home</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Data\pagestyle.css"> </head> <body> <!-- Start Navigation Board --> <div class="navboard"> <img src="Data\logo.png"> <p class="txt1"><a class="nav" href="\">Towns</a></p> <p class="txt1"><a class="nav" href="\">Life</a></p> <p class="txt1"><a class="nav" href="\">Entertainment</a></p> <p class="txt1"><a class="nav" href="\">Guilds</a></p> <p class="copy">© Copyright Joshua Wilkinson.</p> </div><!-- End Nav Board --><!-- Start page text --> <p class="txt2">Welcome!</p> </body> </html> And here's the css: Code: body { background-color:#660000; margin:0px; overflow:; } div.navboard { background-color:#9E0000; position:absolute; height:100%; width:126px; float:left; } p.txt1 { margin:0px; text-align:center; font-size:17; } a.nav { color:#000000; margin:0px; text-decoration:none; position:relative; } p.copy { color:#000000; font-size:10; text-align:center; } p.txt2 { color:#000000; font-size:18; margin-left:130px; float:right; } Now I want the lighter part to be on the left as it is, but then I want the text to be about 4px away from it at the top-left. But whenever I try to put it right, it all goes wrong. Anybody help? If you need me to answer a question, I'm subscribed to this thread. Hi, I'm trying to make a portfolio website where when you hover your mouse over a "thumbnail A", "image A" appears in a separate div and when you move your mouse off the "thumbnail A", "image A" goes away. I made it do that with "onmouseover" and "onmouseout" codes, but now i want to make it so when you click on "thumbnail A", "Image A" stays visible even when you move your mouse away using an "onclick" behavior code. But the code is getting confused by the "onclick" conflicting with the "onmouseout" behavior code, so "image A" still dissapears when you move your mouse off the thumbnail. Is there a way to fix this or a better way to do this??? Thanks!! Hi, I've been looking at a friends website, built by a design company, which is not gathering much in the way of hits. I've noticed that the keyword and description tags are in single quotes, rather than double quotes. An html online check tells me that there are no tags on the page. Can anyone tell me whether this use of single quotes would stop a searchengine seeing the tags, please? Or do I need to look elsewhere for the problem? Ian Hi there guys, I'm a newb to forms in Dreamweaver, so any help will be appreciated. I would like a form on my DJ website that asks the potential customer how many hours they want a disco for, their location and any extras they want to have with the package. The form will then calculate the value of everything and give them a price. I would like to display this answer only after the visitor clicks on a button, rather than just have the information pop up/recalculate every time the visitor changes something on the form. Thanks guys! How do I put an image on a Yahoo group home page and make it go all the way across the screen? What`s the html code to do this? Hi All! I'm using the Option Group/ optgroup/ Select features within a form and would like to initially display all options without having to click the arrow button to "reveal" the selections. I can't seem to find the option to allow this. Of course I can switch to a hyperlinked list, but have made extensive Option Group and would like to continue to use them. Thanks in advance!! I'm about to try and code this page. Basically, it is a group of of linked images. I want to have the images open in lightbox 2.0 but I also want them to have a roll over element. I know both features require javascript, so can they both work together? (stupid question?) I know the scripts have to go in the head of the page. Lets say the images are as follows work1_off.jpg work1_on.jpg work2_off.jpg work2_on.jpg work3_off.jpg work3_on.jpg work4_off.jpg work4_on.jpg work5_off.jpg work5_on.jpg work6_off.jpg work6_on.jpg work7_off.jpg work7_on.jpg work8_off.jpg work8_on.jpg work9_off.jpg work9_on.jpg what might the tags look like? hi i have a group of radio buttons generated dynamically and i want to disable user changing his choice after selecting one! i want to disable the group of radios or lock the first choice somehow! apologize me for my poor eng! tanx Hi I have a web form that, on submission populates a mySQL database through PHP. Each question on the form can have up to 5 different answers. What I am trying to achieve, either through radio groups or drop-down menus is to have unique values for each number so effectively ranking them. Example: Rank your favourite colours from these: Red [1][2][3][4][5] Blue [1][2][3][4][5] Green [1][2][3][4][5] White [1][2][3][4][5] Orange [1][2][3][4][5] Now for each one, I only want the user to select a UNIQUE value so that the same two numbers cannot be submitted. On submission there must be a 1,2,3,4 & 5 (ie with no two questions having the same number) Scratching my head on this one. Any help would be most welcome. Thanks So I have a radio group within a form. Specifically, here is my code: HTML Code: <table> <tr> <td><label> <input type="radio" name="question_1" value="Average" id="question_1_0" /> Average</label></td> <td><label> <input type="radio" name="question_1" value="Large" id="question_1_1" /> Large</label></td> <td><label> <input type="radio" name="question_1" value="Gigantic" id="question_1_2" /> Gigantic!</label></td> <td><label> <input type="radio" name="question_1" value="Getting_larger" id="question_1_3" /> It's Getting Larger...</label></td> </tr> </table> So I need to set an initially selected on this radio group. How do I do that? Thanks! Hi, I am working in Web Application Designer in SAP and it uses XHTML as the language for creating the web items. I have a toggle button which I am able to link with a web item and use the show/hide option. Can any one tell me if I can include another web item to the same toggle button and use it to hide both the Analysis items? <bi:BUTTON_GROUP_ITEM name="BUTTON_GROUP_ITEM_1" designheight="70" designwidth="300" > <bi:BUTTON_LIST type="ORDEREDLIST" > <bi:BUTTON type="COMPOSITE" index="1" > <bi:CAPTION value="Show value" /> <bi:ACTION type="CHOICE" value="INSTRUCTION" > <bi:INSTRUCTION > <bi:SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS > <bi:cmd_item_parameters type="TEXT_ITEM" > <bi:VISIBILITY value="VISIBLE" /> </bi:cmd_item_parameters> <bi:TARGET_ITEM_REF value="TEXT_ITEM_1" /> </bi:SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS> </bi:INSTRUCTION> </bi:ACTION> </bi:BUTTON> I want to add <bi:cmd_item_parameters type="ANALYSIS_ITEM" > <bi:VISIBILITY value="VISIBLE" /> </bi:cmd_item_parameters> <bi:TARGET_ITEM_REF value="ANALYSIS_ITEM_1" /> To the same Button group. Any insight into how I should combine the instructions to the same button group? i'm a newbie when it comes to HTML/CSS and, the question which i have right now, is for my myspace profile. the question is about a checkbox. here is the code that i have on my profile as of now: HTML Code: <form> <a href="link"><input type="checkbox" name="mybox" value="1" />message</a> <a href="link"><input type="checkbox" name="mybox" value="2" />comment</a> <a href="link"><input type="checkbox" name="mybox" value="3" />pictures</a> </form> right now, when you click on the check box, it does not direct you to a link. it just makes a pretty check in the box. that's all. so it makes it seem like check boxes are totally useless. if you click on the actual word, for example, "pictures," you will be directed to the given link. so, what i want, is that when you check the box, you will be directed to the given link. or, even better, that maybe, say if you want to message me, you would check the check box by the word "message." then, you would go over to a button that says "go" of something to that affect. when you would click the "go" button, you would be directed to a messaging page. or, if you wanted to go to my pictures, you would check the box by "pictures," then click the "go" button, and would be directed to my pictures. is even possible to do on myspace? and does it involve CSS? hope that i made sense. btw, on the <a href="link"> thing, i am aware of the fact that i did not give an actual link. i took out the link and replaced it with the word "link" because i want to keep my myspace profile anonymous. Hi all -- I am developing a site here . I am having some issues with my PDF's and the lightbox-esque extension I am using. I just need someone to go to this link specifically, and when you click on the PDF icon with the magnifying glass, do you get a "Drawing error" as well? I've been searching around, and I can't really tell yet if this a problem with the file, or perhaps with something on my computer (I've heard some issues with Adobe making too many temp files, etc.) If anyone can do that for me and let me know the results, I would be very happy! Much appreciated, and thanks so much. I am making a totally new site and i want to make the site an image to avoid copying of info so i made an image background and i want there to be scrolling, but it doesnt scroll. http://www.freewebs.com/new_witchery/test.htm |
