JavaScript - Form Value Priority

Hi,
I have a working contact form with 3 of the fields requiring validation and they work well.
I have added extra fields to the form (StatusClass, Project, CameFrom). These 3 fields return fine but I need to validated them.
My problem is that the new fields don't show in the behaviours/validate panel even though they are within the form tag.
Can anyone give me any help and advice as to how to accomplish this?
Many thanks
Code below....

Code:

<script type="text/JavaScript">
<!--
function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01
  var p,i,x;  if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
    d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}
  if(!(x=d[n])&&d.all) x=d.all[n]; for (i=0;!x&&i<d.forms.length;i++) x=d.forms[i][n];
  for(i=0;!x&&d.layers&&i<d.layers.length;i++) x=MM_findObj(n,d.layers[i].document);
  if(!x && d.getElementById) x=d.getElementById(n); return x;
}

function MM_validateForm() { //v4.0
  var i,p,q,nm,test,num,min,max,errors='',args=MM_validateForm.arguments;
  for (i=0; i<(args.length-2); i+=3) { test=args[i+2]; val=MM_findObj(args[i]);
    if (val) { nm=val.name; if ((val=val.value)!="") {
      if (test.indexOf('isEmail')!=-1) { p=val.indexOf('@');
        if (p<1 || p==(val.length-1)) errors+='- '+nm+' must contain an e-mail address.\n';
      } else if (test!='R') { num = parseFloat(val);
        if (isNaN(val)) errors+='- '+nm+' must contain a number.\n';
        if (test.indexOf('inRange') != -1) { p=test.indexOf(':');
          min=test.substring(8,p); max=test.substring(p+1);
          if (num<min || max<num) errors+='- '+nm+' must contain a number between '+min+' and '+max+'.\n';
    } } } else if (test.charAt(0) == 'R') errors += '- '+nm+' is required.\n'; }
  } if (errors) alert('The following error(s) occurred:\n'+errors);
  document.MM_returnValue = (errors == '');
}
//-->
</script

I've set up a mock registration form page so I can learn a bit about javascript's form validation. (newbie) I want to try to attempt to style the border of a form field green when the user enters the correct info into the form text field and red on all other fields if the user doesnt enter any info into them. When i test it, enter the right info into the username field, leave the others blank, and hit the submit button it styles the username field green ok but it doesnt make the next fields (password and so on) red. Could someone please explain what I am doing wrong?

here is my code so far...
Note: just for testing purposes I've put return false on everything so it displays a message when everythings ok.

Code:

....
<script type="text/javascript">
	window.onload = function() {
		document.forms[0].username.focus();
	}
	function validate(form)
	{
		var form = document.getElementById("reg");
		var e = document.getElementById("error");
		e.style.background = "red";
		
		for(var i = 0; i < form.elements.length; i++)
		{
			var el = form.elements[i];
			if(el.type == "text" || el.type == "password")
			{
				if(el.value == "")
				{
					e.innerHTML = "Please fill in all fields!";
					el.style.border = "1px solid red";
					el.focus();
					return false;
				} else {
					el.style.border = "1px solid green";
					return false;
				}
			}
		}
		var un = form.username;
		un.value = un.value.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g,"");
		if((un.value.length < 3)|| (/[^a-z0-9\_]/gi.test(un.value)))
		{
			e.innerHTML = "Only letters,numbers and the underscore are allowed (no spaces) - 3-16 characters";
			un.focus();
			return false;
		}
		var pw = form.password;
		pw.value = pw.value.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g,"");
		if((pw.value.length < 3) || (/[^a-z0-9]/gi.test(pw.value)))
		{
			e.innerHTML = "Only letters and numbers are allowed (no spaces) - 3-16 characters";
			pw.focus();
			return false;
		}
		e.innerHTML = "You filled in all the fields, well done!";
		e.style.background = "green";
		return false;
	}

Hi guys,

Been stuck for a few days with this scenario.
Any help?
The alert box appears on an error.
But the submitting won't stop.
The details are submitted and the form is processed.
Any help is greatly appreciated...

Hello all,

I have a multistep jquery form that validates user input and then should send me an email. Problem is, right now, I can only get it to validate the first page, then it sends the email before the rest of the pages are viewed.

I'm just trying to delay the submission of the form until the "submit_fourth" button is pressed. I've got $25 via paypal for the one who sticks with this one for long enough to come up with a workable solution.

Here is my code... I know it's a lot, but I wasn't sure how much would be helpful. HTML code is in the second post in this thread (it was just too much to fit in one go).

Cheers!
-Dave

The Javascript:
Code:

$(function validateForm(){
		
    //original field values
    var field_values = {
            //id  :  value
            'name'  :  'your name',
            'email'  :  'email',
			'phone'  :  '(555) 123-4567',
			'other'  :  'other',
			'detail'  :  'project overview'
    };

    //inputfocus
    $('input#name').inputfocus({ value: field_values['name'] });
    $('input#email').inputfocus({ value: field_values['email'] });
    $('input#phone').inputfocus({ value: field_values['phone'] });
	$('input#other').inputfocus({ value: field_values['other'] });
	$('input#detail').inputfocus({ value: field_values['detail'] });

I'm a long time lurker on here just barely created an account to ask this question.

I work at a call center, and we use different webapps to fill out tickets. One I've used for a long time allows dynamically updating forms with javascript. I have a whole bunch of bookmarked javascript injections like:

Code:

javascript:if((top.detail.findObj('X31').value="Inquiry")!="");

That code will fill out most everything in that ticket, leaving me to fill in the details. I have one of those for all of the most common tickets, and can create and finish a ticket in less than 30 seconds when it takes others 3-4 minutes.

I recently switched to a different system and I'm having trouble with my code. I'm a noob at javascript for sure, but I'm not new to programming. Anyway any pointers would be nice. The system we use doesn't allow me to see the source... I'm not sure how to explain it. It loads everything in a frame. In chrome I can right click then inspect element and get the ID but it the above javascript doesn't work. Examples:

Old app source ex: Code:

<label for="X31">Category:</label>

was all i needed
new app(before the body code is just code for the login form, etc): Code:

<body onLoad="startit()" onUnload="stopit()"> 
                </body> 
  <div align="center" valign="center" id="LoadMessageID" style="position: relative; top:40%; color:#0069A5; font-size:100% ;"> 
  <img src="/arsys/shared/images/Progress_NonModal-circle.gif" alt="wait image"/> 
  Loading...
  </div> 
</html>

formloader: Code:

<form name="form1" action="/arsys/forms/bmcitsm/HPD:Incident+Management+Console/Default+User+View+(Support)/?cacheid=a22a36a8" method="post">

example of inspect element in chrome (something i want to change with javascript injection): Code:

<input id="arid301602600" type="text" class="text " style="top:0; left:0; width:225; height:21;" readonly="">

I'm using the jquery plugin found here. I love the look but I have a form that uses functions like this:

Code:

function cascadeCountry(value) {
   if (document.getElementById("srchlookstate_province") != null) {
      http.open('get', 'cascade_search.php?a=country&v=' + value );
      document.getElementById('srchlookstate_province').innerHTML="  "+loadingTag;
      http.onreadystatechange = handleResponse;
      http.send(null);
   }
}

So, when you select a country and it retrieves the state/province text input, the jquery css is not applied to it. Is there something I need to add to the code above or to the jquery initialization code he

Code:

$(function() {
	$("form.jqtransform").jqTransform();
});

So I have a little calendar widget on my site, for people to choose their dates for a reservation system. They then click a 'Book Now' button which creates a dynamic url (using their start date and the number of dates) to the booking engine. The problem is, the way it accomplishes this (window.location.href=), breaks cross-domain tracking on Google Analytics. And I'm not smart enough to figure out how to do it any other way.

What I'd like to do is have clicking the Book Now button change the URL in the form action within the form with ID resForm, and then submit the form. I'm hoping someone can help me edit the form so that it accomplishes this. I'd be incredibly thankful.

This is what I currently have:

Code:

<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {

$(".book-now").click(function() {

if($('#check-in').length > 0 && $('#DepartureDate').val() != '') {

var data = $('#check-in').val();
var arr = data.split('/');

var datac = $('#DepartureDate').val();
var arr2 = datac.split('/');

var oneDay = 24*60*60*1000; // hours*minutes*seconds*milliseconds
var firstDate = new Date(arr[2],arr[0] -1,arr[1]);
var secondDate = new Date(arr2[2],arr2[0] -1,arr2[1]);

var diffDays = Math.round((firstDate.getTime() - secondDate.getTime())/(oneDay));

if ((diffDays) < 0) 
{
    diffDays = Math.abs(diffDays); 
    var link = "https://res.windsurfercrs.com/bbe/page1.aspx?propertyID=13841&checkin=" + arr[0] + "/" + arr[1] + "/" + arr[2] + "&nights=" + diffDays;

    console.log(link);

    window.location.href= link;
}

    else
    {
        alert ('Please fill in correct Check-In and Check-Out dates. The Check-In date must be before the Check-Out date.');
    }

} else {
alert ('Please fill in a Check-In and Check-Out date, thanks!');
}

});

});
</script>

The form looks like this:

Code:

<form action="#" onSubmit="_gaq.push(['_linkByPost',this]);" method="post" id="resForm">
<input type='text' name="checkin" id="check-in" readonly="readonly" style="cursor: text" data-default="MM/DD/YYYY" class='arrivaldate'/>
<input name="checkout" id="DepartureDate" readonly="readonly" style="cursor: text" data-default="MM/DD/YYYY" class='departuredate'/>
<input type="button" value="BOOK NOW" class='book-now' />
</form>

Just call the _gaq() function manually.

Code:

    _gaq.push(['_linkByPost',document.getElementBy("resForm")])
    window.location.href= link;

Hello, I have 2 things I'm trying to figure out.

1. First form on the page has questions with radio buttons. Each radio's value is a number so a score is assessed at the end.

2. Second form on the page is an email the admin form, which duplicates the score in one field.

Question: I would like to know how to write the form results to a text area in second form. However, I can't do this for one, and secondly, the value is a number, can I use labels?

Here's the code I've 'made up' so far...

JS (i know it's wrong)
Code:

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function display() {
  message = "<ul><li><b>Question 1: </b>" + document.quizform.Q1.label;
  message = "<li><b>Question 2: </b>" + document.quizform.Q2.label;
  message = "<li><b>Question 3: </b>" + document.quizform.Q3.label;
  message = "<li><b>Question 4: </b>" + document.quizform.Q4.label;
  message = "<li><b>Question 5: </b>" + document.quizform.Q5.label;
  message = "<li><b>Question 6: </b>" + document.quizform.Q6.label + "</ul>";
  document.write(message);
}
</script>

Form field example:
Code:

Question 1:<BR>
<label for="Yes"><input type="radio" name="Q1" value="0" checked></label>Yes<br>
<label for="No"><input type="radio" name="Q1" value="10"></label>No<br>
<label for="I don't know"><input type="radio" name="Q1" value="10"></label>I don't know<br>

I have been hard at work coding a fancy JQuery form validation script. Problem is, when I run validation on my form, it seems to work, but no email is sent. But when I disable validation, the email sends just fine. I am fairly new to JavaScript, and need some help pinpointing where my error is.

Here is the code.

Code:

// BEGIN JAVASCRIPT
$(function(){
	
    //original field values
    var field_values = {
            //id  :  value
            'name'  :  'your name',
            'email'  :  'your email',
			'yourmessage'  :  'I would like to inquire about'
    };

    //inputfocus
    $('input#name').inputfocus({ value: field_values['name'] });
    $('input#email').inputfocus({ value: field_values['email'] });
	$('textarea#yourmessage').inputfocus({ value: field_values['yourmessage'] });

    //form validation
    $('form').submit(function validateForm(){ return false }); // removing this return false seems to mess up validation
    $('#submit').click(function(){
        //remove classes
        $('#sendamessage input').removeClass('error').removeClass('valid');

        //ckeck if inputs aren't empty
        var emailPattern = /^[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$/;  
        var fields1 = $('#sendamessage input[type=text],#sendamessage textarea');
        var error = 0;
        fields1.each(function(){
            var value = $(this).val();
            if( value.length<2 || value==field_values[$(this).attr('id')] || ( $(this).attr('id')=='email' && !emailPattern.test(value) ) ) {
                $(this).addClass('error'); // css class
                $(this).effect("shake", { times:3 }, 50);

                error++;
            } else {
                $(this).addClass('valid'); // css class
            }
        });     
        
        if(!error) {
        	// this is where I get confused. How do I make this send the form?
        	alert('Data sent');
    		});
        } 						
    }); 	
});
// END JAVASCRIPT


        <form method="post" action="" onsubmit="return validateForm()" >
			<input type="hidden" name="ccf_customhtml" value="1" />
			<input type="hidden" name="success_message" value="Thank you for filling out our form!" />
			<input type="hidden" name="destination_email" value="dauidus@gmail.com" />
            <input type="hidden" name="required_fields" value="" />

            	<label for="name">Name</label>
            		<input type="text" name="name" id="name" value="your name" /> 
            
            	<label for="email">Email</label>
            		<input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="your email" /> 
            
            	<label for="yourmessage">Your Message</label>
            		<textarea name="yourmessage" id="yourmessage" value="I would like to inquire about" style="margin-bottom:20px;" />I would like to inquire about</textarea>

            		<input class="send submit" id="submit" type="submit" value="" style="position: relative; bottom: -70px; left: 25px; " />
        </form>

I am using a WordPress plugin to automatically send the contents of the form to email. It works without the javascript enabled. But when I turn on JS the form gets validated, but no email is sent.

Please let me know if I should include anything else here... I've been looking at this code so much that I'm having a hard time doing it with fresh eyes. The problem page is on http://new.dauidusdesign.com/contact/. FYI, I am also looking to make this work with the 'request a quote' link on the same page.

Cheers!

Hello,

I am using a simple form to submit values to another website. This has been working without any problems. I now have added a second form to the page. I have separated the text boxes and duplicated the information from one form to another. The problem is, when I click on the link that use to submit the information, nothing happens. Before the addition of the new form a new window would open with the search that I had submitted. Am I missing something to point to one form or the other? The following is the code that i am using in the form that no longer submits. Thanks in advance for any help.
Code:

<script language="javascript">
function submitPostLink()
{
document.postlink.submit();
}
</script>

<form action="http://wcca.wicourts.gov/simpleCaseSearch.do;jsessionid=61EFDA464D938EB53461CABB6EFC7D3B.renderHTTP/1.1" name="postlink" method="post" target="_blank">
<input type="hidden" name="partyName.lastName" id="ccapLAST">
<input type="hidden" name="partyName.firstName" id="ccapFIRST">
<input type="hidden" name="partyName.middleName" id="ccapMIDDLE">
<input type="hidden" name="partyName.showMissingMiddleNames" value="true">
<input type="hidden" name="recordsPerPage" value="25"><br>
<a onclick="submitPostLink()" href="#" a>SEARCH</a>

$i++;
}

I am no javascript expert, very much a beginner. I am trying to incorporate some into a web-based form. The problem is the button I created to add extra fields does not work, and I can't find exactly where the problem is. I'm in need of some help from a javascript guru. Help me enjoy my Friday afternoon by solving this!

The javascript is mostly borrowed and slightly altered, the "additem" I wrote myself so that is probably where the problem lies!

Here is the html:


Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

var noFields = "5";

function additem()
	{

		fieldrow.appendChild(fieldcolumns);

Hi All,

I have created my second Form to File Web Form thanks to some help from other members. Looks great.

I am still new to HTML and Javascript, but basically I took my First Web Form coding (with the Java Script) and manipulated it so that it suited my needs for my 2nd Form (both are very close to being the same).

For some reason, I can't get my Java Script validation to take effect.

I was wondering if some one could try to pin point why it isn't functioning properly? Again it could be the most obvious thing, but please bear with me as I learn.

Just for a little more clarity, I am going to list the things that I have changed to possibly make it easier to pin point:

Added Fields: Department, SteetAddress, CityState
Deleted: State/Research Accounts, Vendor Checkbox
Modified: "Type" which is a radio button that I have changed the choices of.

I beleive that's it...I will post my Java Script here and attach my Index File.

Thank you in advance!!

I've been using a script for verifying forms across several pages, and I've run into a page where it won't work the way it is.

It's a form that loops through and creates a set of fields over and over, depending on the number of attendees. I'm assuming this disrupts the form verification because the fields get generated with the same id. I think I need to find another way to make sure the user enters valid and complete information. Here's what I've been using:

Code:

function myForm(){
	// Make quick references to our fields
	var fname = document.getElementById('fname');
	var lname = document.getElementById('lname');
	var birth_month = document.getElementById('birth_month');
	var birthday = document.getElementById('birthday');
	var birthyear = document.getElementById('birthyear');

	
	// Check each input in the order that it appears in the form!
	if(isAlphabet(fname, "Please enter only letters for your first name")){
		if(isAlphabet(lname, "Please enter only letters for your last name")){
			if(madeSelection(birth_month, "Pleace choose a birth month")){
				if(madeSelection(birthday, "Please choose a birth day")){
					if(madeSelection(birthyear, "Please choose a birth year")){
						return true;
						}
					}
				}
			}
		}

	
	return false;
}



function isAlphabet(elem, helperMsg){
	var alphaExp = /^[a-zA-Z ]+$/;
	if(elem.value.match(alphaExp)){
		return true;
	}else{
		alert(helperMsg);
		elem.focus();
		return false;
	}
}


function madeSelection(elem, helperMsg){
	if(elem.value == ''){
		alert(helperMsg);
		elem.focus();
		return false;
	}else{
		return true;
	}
}

</script>

	$count = $line;
	 $i = 1;
while ($i <= $count) {
     $i++;  /* the printed value would be

                   (post-increment) */
