Hello,

I am trying to create a form so that member can submit a file to our Yahoo! Group. However, I cannot get it to work. Perhaps that this is not even possible?

I have an html file that can click on and after they have filled out the form, they would click "submit" and it would post that file into out Yahoo! Group file section.

If this isn't possible, is there a way to have it bring up a page with all the information on it after they submitted it so they can just copy and paste?

Thanks,
DarkEdward

hey so i have a template which is just a picture and I want the person to be able to click it (but they would in reality just be clicking the invisible button) while it's the background of my site. It allows the person to enter

<form name="input" action="http://www.google.com"
method="get">
<input type="submit" value="Enter">
</form>

if I make the value nothing (or a space), it doesnt dissapear, it just shows a blank button

Why is it that my button on IE looks like crap, with blurry corners and sadly rounded edges...

But this guy's button in IE looks just perfect, with no blurry corners and sharp square edges?

I'm a relative novice to HTML and CSS trying to earn some extra cash doing freelance web designing. With the project I'm working on now, my client has pointed out that in IE 6 and 7, the Submit and Reset buttons of the Contact page are not working. The thing is, they actually are working, it's just that the rollover area for some reason has been reduced to just the bottom edge of the button. Here's the url I test off so you can see what I mean: http://www.animationpolitik.com/newDMsite/contact.html

The buttons work just fine in Firefox and IE8. However if you go into either IE6 or 7 you'll notice that the interior yellow highlight of the Submit and Reset buttons only lights if you carefully roll over the bottom edges of the buttons. They'll work if you hit them at those exact locations, but if you mouse over the center of the buttons and click, nothing happens, which apparently is confusing a lot of my client's customers. It's strange because these are just the default buttons that are created when using the <form> tag; there's no styling on them whatsoever. The table I have them nested in reads like this:

<form method="post" action="contact_retrieval.php" target="_top">

...

<table class="comments" border="0">
<tr>
<td height="18" colspan="2">Additional comments/questions:<br />
<textarea rows="7" cols="55" wrap="physical" name="comments">
</textarea>
</td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td width="87" height="18"><input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit"></td>
<td width="393"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="reset"></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

I've been searching the issue for the past several hours and have tried everything from moving the buttons outside the table to relocating them outside the <form></form> tags, but nothing woks. Any idea what could be causing this madness? Any help with this situation would be greatly appreciated!

I have a form with a number of elements. One of these elements is:

<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-butcc-subscribe.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">

Clicking on that element makes the form submit.

But if I add a similar element:

<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-butcc-subscribe.gif" border="0" name="submit2" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">

...clicking on that also makes the form submit.

So was wondering if anyone knew what the rules were for which elements make a form submit?

Cheers,
James

I've created a form with a submit button and another button. The submit button is tied to the action of the form and the other button is to "register" or just send the user to another URL. It works fine in Firefox but not in IE...Any ideas? Code is below...

Code:

<form method="post" action="allow.php">
<table style="width: 100%; height: 100%" cellspacing="1">
	<tr>
	<td class="un">USERNAME:&nbsp;&nbsp;</td>
	<td class="in"><input name="username" type="text" class="input"/></td>
	<td class="un">PASSWORD:&nbsp;&nbsp;</td>
	<td class="in"><input name="password" type="password" class="input"/></td>
	<td class="goblock">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Login" class="go"/><a href="http://digiconmediagroup.com/Homeplate/portal/register.php"><input name="register" type="button" value="Register" class="gor"/></a></td>
	</tr>
</table>
</form>

Hey there,

I registered in hope of getting some help
I'm creating this bulletin board in our intranet and I really need to add couple of buttons which would help our users with posting their stuff. The board obviously understands HTML and this is what I want to do:

I need to have a button that adds html tags into the textfield when clicked. For example if I wanted to add <br> in the post, I just would have to press a button to do it.

Hope you understand what I mean and hope you can help me, I'm such a newbie when it comes to this

Cheers!

is it possible to change the form buttons to links ??

for example if i have a picture i can only add a link to it
i want to replace the form button with this pic so it still submits or does the action of the button

some might ask why wud i do that but i want to do it coz in these pictures i can customize my own and add my own graphics

sum might tell me to add a background to the button but nope
coz for a windows XP and a windows Vista and a windows 2000 for example
the button takes the shape from the windows theme
so u find XP the XP button
and Vista the new button
and for 2000 the old button
which the background wont work with so well

u know what i mean?

thanx alot

Bye

Hi,

I have one form for searching with 2 buttons, 'Search Site' and 'Search Web'. If possible I'd like the 'Search Site' to just stay in the same window when submitted (with the information from the search text field) and the same with the 'Search Web' button except I'd like it to open in a new window.

Here's what I have:

Code:

<table cellspacing="3" cellpadding="0" align="center">
<tr>
<form name="search" action="/search.php" onSubmit="return checkform()">
<td>
<b class="f14"><a href="/search/" class="nol">Search</a>:</b>&nbsp;
</td>
<td>
<input type="text" name="search" id="search" value="<? echo $search ?>" />
</td>
<td>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" id="Submit" value="Search Site" />
</td>
<td>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" id="Submit" value="Search Web" />
</td>
</form>
</tr>
</table>

Any ideas?

Hello All,
I'm creating a form which has got several parts, divided by tables, which are radio buttons, check boxes etc. All the radio button tables work well with the exception of one where it lets you choose all three options or two, as if they were checkboxes.

The code is:
PHP Code:
<div class="roundedcornrboxorange">
   <div class="roundedcornrtoporange"><div></div></div>
      <div class="roundedcornrcontentorange">
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td colspan="3"><h3>Which level do you think you're currently are?</h3></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="30%"><input type="radio" name="level[beginner]" id="beginner" value="1"/> Beginner</td>
<td width="30%"><input type="radio" name="level[intermediate]" id="intermediate" value="1"/> Intermediate</td>
<td width="30%"><input type="radio" name="level[advanced]" id="advanced" value="1"/> Advanced</td>
</tr>
</table>

      </div>
   <div class="roundedcornrbottomorange"><div></div></div>
</div> 


Does anyone have an idea what could be going wrong?

The css (in case it helps) is:

PHP Code:
.roundedcornrboxorange {
margin: 5px 0 0 0;
width: 800px;
clear: both;
   background: #ff7b06 url(../images/roundedcornr190406grad.gif) repeat-x top left;
}
.roundedcornrtoporange div {
   background: url(../images/roundedcornr190406tl.gif) no-repeat top left;
}
.roundedcornrtoporange {
   background: transparent url(../images/roundedcornr190406tr.gif) no-repeat top right;
}
.roundedcornrbottomorange div {
   background: url(../images/roundedcornr190406bl.gif) no-repeat bottom left;
}
.roundedcornrbottomorange {
   background: transparent url(../images/roundedcornr190406br.gif) no-repeat bottom right;
}

.roundedcornrtoporange div, .roundedcornrtoporange,
.roundedcornrbottomorange div, .roundedcornrbottomorange {
   width: 100%;
   height: 10px;
   font-size: 1px;
}
.roundedcornrcontentorange { margin: 0 10px; } 


Many thanks in advance

Hi all,

sorry I am pretty new with this so I hope I can explain what it is I am trying to do here.

I've recently been tasked with creating a 'note taking' html template at work, to assist with note taking for operators in a call center. I was selected due to nobody else having any understanding of how computers work beyond using microsoft office, go figure : /

Anyway. Basically what I am trying to do is be able to create a basic htlm template which has a text box, and some 'radio' buttons and check boxes which assign text when selected.

Example, we take down notes when clients call up and speak with someone. We would have say 2 check boxes to cover things like "Full name of client confirmed, confirmed clients details". If the phone operator clicked these 2 buttons, it would copy that exact text into the text box. If they clicked one, it would only copy that.

There would also be a 'radio' button, "Transferred client directly to desired party, transferred client to extension without employee contact" would be the options for example. Basically only 1 option can be selected, and that option would populate the text box if selected.

I'm also looking at hwo to create a button with a 'reset' feature to basically wipe everything clean so it can be started over once the operator takes another call.

So far I am able to create a form with the text box and buttons, but I don't know what code I need to look at to assign text to those buttons.

It's an easy idea, just need to get my foot in the door as I haven't really touched html since I was finishing high school year ago. Anyone able to assist, i would imagine it's not as difficult as I am makign it out to be

Hope someone can help me. I've got a html page set up so that my clients can type in their name, choose several options via radio buttons, an option to clear the form, then submit the form.

What I'm having trouble with is how to obtain the information from the form. I think I would prefer this to be retrieved via email. Is there a way I can:

1. Have the subject of the email be the name of the client (whatever they type in)
2. The results of the form sent to my email (let's say it's myemail@university.edu)

Thanks in advance!

Here is the html code I have:
