Hey, I'm making a small text based game for a project at school, i am having2 problems, one is that i don't want it to open another page to submit the info to the PHP database when i hit the spin button, i want it to send the data directly from this page without opening any others i have tried changing the target but i cant do it, I've highlighted it in red below, and two is that i want it to auto submit the data every 4-5 seconds intervals without the user clicking anything, i have tried many codes i still cant get it to work. Thanks =]

<form action="MyUrl" method="post" name="form1" target="hidden " id="form1">
<input name="bet" type="text" class="textbox" id="bet" value="1000">
<br>
<br>
<input name="spin" type="submit" class="custombutton" id="spin" value="Spin slots!">
</form>

I have a job application page on my client's site that needs to be submited, sent to an email adress and then redirected to a 'thank you' page. The format and look of the page appears to be great, but when you hit the 'submit' button on the page, the error message "Method Not Allowed: The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL /job.htm."
Apparently, this site's address was recently changed and the submission action was lost somewhere in transfer.

The code is below, but if anyone is willing to help, it would be greatly appreciated.

THANK YOU!

<FORM METHOD="POST"
ACTION="http://www....job.htm"><INPUT
TYPE="hidden" NAME="recipient" VALUE="email address">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="subject" VALUE="Job Application info"><INPUT
TYPE="hidden" NAME="redirect"
VALUE="http://www.....thanks.htm">

I am designing a site for avaition photos that I have taken. What I want to do is have people who have had pictures taken of their aircraft to find the pictures and discretley release them for publication.

The 'hard part' is taking the aircraft registry from a submit feild and returning an apropriate result. What I want to have happen is that if the user submits a registry that I have, they are presented with a page that they can fill out their information confirming that they are who they say they are and that the photo can be released. And if they are not in my list they get a 'sorry photo(s) not found'

The question is can I do this without ay scripting or a database? IE If the user has the registration, have it point to a 'submittedregistration.html' file?

Thanks for your help all!!

Hey all. I haven't designed a website in over 5 years and am extremely rusty. I'm trying to create a contact form and i have a question.

When i hit submit it opens up outlook and just fills in the too with the e-mail i choose and the body has the content of the form. I don't want it to do this. When i hit submit i want it to send the contents of the form to an e-mail of my choosing and then take you to another page that says "Thank You for your submission" or something along those lines.

Right now i have:

<form action="MAILTO:example@example.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain">

<h3>Please fill out the form below and someone will be in touch with you shortly.</h3>
Name:
<br/>
<input type="text" name="name"/>
<br/>

<br/>

</textarea>
<br/>
<br/>
<input type="submit" value="Send">
<input type="reset" value="Reset">

</form>

What am i missing and how do i go about doing what i want? Thanks in advance!!

Hi everyone,

Is it possible to have a form without a submit button. I know you can use links etc to submit a form but can you just have nothing, so the user just hits the enter key and the form submits ?

cheers

Hey guys. This is my first post, so thanks in advance for any help I receive!

I'm having some problems with a form I've created. The form itself, when submitted, doesn't actually have to be sent to a server, as it is just for a school project. However, to my understanding when you submit a form, the information that is collected from the form is appended in a string to the url at the top.

My problem is that part of my form is not being sent. My code is below, the part of the form that is not being sent is the table that has the text boxes for date, item and quantity.

Thanks again in advance for any help!

This will be used to enter scores etc into the thread so it is easier to ready etc. What do I put in the html to do this? Here is what Iv got, it is only a short one just to test it out etc

Hi there,

I'm hoping this is a pretty easy thing to do, and that it is me missing something. My password submit button on my html page will only work when the user clicks on submit and does not work when the user just presses "Enter".

How can I change this so that the user can submit the password by pressing "Enter"?

Here is my code:


Code:

<script language="javascript">

function pasuser(form) 
{
    if (form.pass.value=="password") 
            {
                location = "page2.html"
             } 
    else {
              alert("Invalid Password")
            }
} 

</script>


<form name="login">
       <input name="pass" type="password">
       <input type="button" value="Login" onClick="pasuser(this.form) ">
       <input type="Reset">
</form>

Hey, i'm really new to HTML, but my dad's amazing at it and gradually helping learn. I'm trying to get this for my blog, a way to sign up for a newsletter i'm putting together. Here's the code i've put in but when I click submit, it just says "Method Not Allowed". Thanks.

Here's what i've put in:
Code:

<form method=post action="/cgi-bin/example.cgi">
<input type="text" size="12" maxlength="30" />
<input type="Submit" value="Submit" action="mailto:jjrsportsfan@yahoo.com" />
</form>

Thanks,

I would like to create 2 buttons for my form. The 1st button named "Submit Ads" would be a submit command and go to one page upon click.

The second button named "Continue >>" would be a submit command and go to different page upon click.

How can I do this?

Your help would be greatly appreciated!

I got a form from Response o Matic, then edited some of the HTML. I removed the link back to their website, but it deleted the Submit Button (at least when viewing in IE7 - its OK in Firefox). I put their link back, but the Submit button does not show!!

Any ideas, i really don't want to repeat the form as it took hours to space it all out how i wanted it.

Thanks

Hi,

This is a little difficult to explain but here goes.

I have a form on my website which allow users to insert insect species they've recorded into a mysql database. Everything works fine, but one feature I would like to add is, instead of submitting the form for each species in a list, allow the user to go through their list and then clicking 'Add' to add them to a list on the screen, once complete they can click submit on the form and the entire list is added to the database in one submission. Is this possible and if so could someone please help. This would be a great feature for my site and make it much more user friendly.

Many Thanks

Simon

I have a simple form where the user enters his email address and clicks the 'Register (free!)' button.

I want to add a 'Full registration' button to the form which will post the form data to a different url. Does anyone know if/how this can be done?

Cheers,
James
