HTML - Automatically Fill In Date Field By Pressing Button
Hi, I could do with some help. I have built a form which allows visitors to add there insect records to a mysql database. One of the fields is a date. Instead of the user having to type in the date each time I would like to include a button saying 'Todays date'. When the user presses the button it automatically fills in the date field with the todays date.
Could someone please tell me how I could do this. Thanks Simon Similar TutorialsHi everyone, New to this site so I hope i can get some helpful tips. I'm kinda new to HTML so here are my questions. I'm creating a request form and require the contents of the form to my email address but i don't want it to be in a file. Another feature i want is the date field. When the user tabs or clicks in the date field i want the current date to be populated in the text field. I've attached the code: <html> <body> <h1>Request Form</h1> <form method="POST" action="mailto:email@email.com"> Date: <input type="text" name="date" > <br> Requested by: <input type="text" name="reqeustor"> <br><br> Assigned to: <input type="radio" name="assignee" value="Name1"> Female<br> <input type="radio" name="assignee" value="Name2"> Male<br><br> Decription of request:<br> <textarea rows="50" cols="80" name="descrip"></textarea><br> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit Request""> <input type="reset" name="reset" value="Reset"> </form> </body> </html> Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. When someone clicks an email link on our website I want the email subject line automatically filled in for them. I have tried the following code, but it does not work. <a href="mailto:example@example.co.uk?subject=example">example@example.co.uk</a> I am pretty sure its because I am putting the email address as the text for the link. Because when I replace the email address with normal text, it works fine. Instead of showing example@example.co.uk it shows mailto:example@example.co.uk?subject=example I'm using a jquery plugin that creates a grid view using a table. Inside the cells i have text areas that i'm manually sizing using the rows attribute, to fill the td. It's not working very cleanly though. Does anyone know of a way to get text areas to automatically size themselves to a containing td? thanks, max Hiya, My form has two submit buttons. How do I set a particular one to be used for when the user presses their Enter key? Thanks, James How do I prefill an input field in a form? I don't mean "value=hello" I mean have a light gray text inside that says "enter your first name" and then when the user starts typing that text disappears. I thought there was an html tag that did this (or a form tag like type=""). I hope it doesn't require CSS... thanks! Hi, I've got an HTML form running on an internal intranet site. It contains a vbscript that pulls the username from the local machine. Is there a way to put that username in a text box on the html page for submission later? Please see the code below for reference thanks <html> <head> </head> <body> <script type="text/vbscript"> set objNetwork = createobject("wscript.network") document.write(objNetwork.Username) </script> </body> </html> Hi, I'm building a website for a Rock Band. They have a FORTHCOMING GIGS page, and a GIG HISTORY page. Can anyone tell me how, when the date changes, the information is deleted from the FORTHCOMING GIGS page, and then appears on the GIG HISTORY page. I know that this can be done automatically, I just don't know how. I think it might be a php script. Thanks I need to update a field based off date. What I want to do is have a hidden date field that would then add to another field to give me a number based off the date. I did this in excel with this formala: =(TODAY()-A4)+B4 In A4 I have my date entered. In b4 I have the number I want to add to the date. The answer is then displayed in whatever cell I put this formula in. I need to do the same thing in HTML. Any help appreciated.

I've tried various alignments but I'm also limited by what I can do because when you convert from .psd to html the entire page is one form. I don't have an external link but I'm able to provide html if necessary. Can someone please take a look at my code and offer some suggestions? Thank you Doug Hey, I'm jst starting to learn html and I was someone could give me an example of how to create a a simple form with 2 input fields which are set to a value say "hello" in first field and "World" in second field when the button is clicked. Thanks Is there a way to put a custom graphic for the browse button in the file upload field, similar to how you can use a custom graphic for the submit button? Ok, basically here is the run down of what I am looking for this script to do. Code: http://www.thisisjustanexamplesite.com/stats=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX (X's representing numbers) All I want is the webpage to just show a text field and a submit button. So when the user puts in the numbers in the text field and hits submit, it automatically will put the numbers he put into the text field on the end of that link mentioned above and then take them there. I'm thinking it should just be simple HTML but possbily PHP maybe, not sure. Any help would be appreciated! This might be a little confusing to some, but i'll give it a shot. You know how when you start to fill out a form the submit button gets highlighted, and you can press enter instead of clicking on the submit button to submit the information? Is there anyway to disable that highlight/"submitting on pressing enter" I'd like to not have to go back and rewrite everything after I accidentally hit the enter key (thinking wordwrap isn't on). Code: <input type="button" value="Post Video" /> Pretty new to HTML and have a few basic sites done, however I would like to attempt to add a fill in box with this same information as is this possible?http://www.newmexico-dodge.com/ou/al...page=c_finance Hi, I'd like to know how to completely fill a web page with an image. This might sound like a simple thing but I would like to have an image fill the web page window 100%, at least top left and right should be possible. When I try this in Dreamweaver by placing the image inside a table there is always a white border around the image, even though I am using the 100% fit attribute. Browsers of importance: IE6/7 I visit a lot of sites where the window is filled exactly. Is it best for the image to be larger than 1024 x 768 or smaller, and if smaller, does the HTML code stretch the image or contents to fit? If I could get past this, I might be able to get interested in web site building, but this has thwarted all my interest if what you create doesn't fit the browser window properly. Thanks in advance! Hi everyone, I've got a div setup, used for navigation, like so: HTML Code: <div class="container"> <div class="item">Home</div> <div class="item">Link 1</div> <div class="item">Link 2</div> <div class="item">Link 3</div> <div class="item">Link 4</div> <div class="item">Link 5</div> <div class="item">Link 6</div> <div class="whitespace">Fill Whitespace</div> </div> The container div is 800px, but the links only come to 700px, roughly. I want to fill the remaining space, because each item has a border, other than the selected one, and i want the border to touch the side of the container. I've tried Code: .whitespace {
width: 100%
}
and this does work partially, but the div finishes just short of the edge of the container. I've entered text into the whitespace container, which has stretched it to the edge of the container, so i know theres nothing getting in the way. Any ideas how i can get the whitespace div to fill up the remaining space in the container div? Thanks Matthew Millar Hi everyone - I've been building our new site located at http://viralms.com for the last few weeks. There is just one thing I can't seem to figure out. On the home page there is a Marketing Evaluation form with "Name" and "Email" fields. When someone is to fill out those 2 fields and hit "Continue" I want it to land on this page: http://viralms.com/analysis.html Upon loading the analysis page, the name and email fields should be automatically filled out. I've seen it done before but can't really figure out how to do it Thanks J Hi there, I am looking for a way that if a user clicks on a button on my website it will autofill a search field on a website that I have no control over. I have been told that I just need to add the url http://www.externalsite.com?fieldname=123456789 This doesn't seem to work. Can anyone help with this? Hi, I'm having a bit of a problem with my table. A cell which should completely be filled with a picture leaves a small - but - whitespace between the picture and the next cell. I've posted a pic of the problem and here comes the code: <table border="0" cellspacing="0" width="780" align="center"> <tr> <td height="250" width="780" colspan="3"> <img src="pics/Kjolur.png" height="250" width="780"> </td> </tr> </table> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" align="center" style="background-color: white;"> <tr> <td height="750" width="194"> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="background-color: #f0f0f0; border-left: 4px solid #f0f0f0;"> </tr> <tr> <td class="sub1" height="10" width="190"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td class="sub1" height="27" width="190" style=" border-bottom: 1px solid darkgray;"><a href="http://www.kerlingarfjoll.is/information.html">Information</a> </td> </tr> .... etc. I've quite new to this and find myself a bit at a loss, so any help would be soo much appreciated!! Best, thora |
