JavaScript - Accessing <span> With Multiple Forms Via Javascript
Hi all,
I have multiple forms on one page with the same element name and one of them is the <span>. Below is my sample code for a simple html file for testing purposes. I have no problem accessing the <input> element, but i had problems with the <span> element. Anyone knows why? In this scenario, i won't be able to use the document.getElementById() as both <span> have the same name. Code: <html> <head> Test <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> // JavaScript statements go here function test(tmpForm) { window.alert(tmpFrm.elements["weight"].value); window.alert(tmpForm.elements["error"].innerHTML); } </SCRIPT> </head> <body> <form id="form_137" name="form_137"> <input id="weight" name="weight" value="" /> <span id="error" name="error">abc</span> <INPUT TYPE="button" id="btnSubmit" NAME="btnSubmit" VALUE="Submit" onClick="test(this.form);"> </form> <form id="form_137_down" name="form_137_down"> <input id="weight" name="weight" value="" /> <span id="error" name="error">zzz</span> <INPUT TYPE="button" id="btnSubmit" NAME="btnSubmit" VALUE="Submit" onClick="test(this.form);"> </form> </body> </html> Similar TutorialsI made a php page with multiple forms with javascript code in it. The javascript makes an input field for the date. The problem is that the script interfers between other scripts in the other forms and i get wrong orderdate. Code: <form action='dataadd.php' name='$id'>"; $datestime=time(); echo "<input type=hidden name=dateid value='$id'>"; echo "<input type=hidden name=datestime value='$datestime'>";?> <script type="text/javascript"> DateInput('orderdate', true, 'yyyy-mm-dd')</script>.... hy all, I am creating an accordion menu that when i press the " UNIT " tab, it opens up a list of " Chapters " tab, and when i press on any one of those chapters, a list of lessons opens up. Till now, i have managed to create all the appropriate lists, but in default, lessons and chapters are opened automatically, and the lessons elements when pressed do not scroll back up to the chapters parents.

In the example below, I have a constructor function called anyObj. to which I pass an object reference to an element. anyObj has 3 properties and one function increaseWidth() increaseWidth() creates a new button with an onclick event handler and this is where I have a problem. The onclick function needs to increase the value of anyObj's this.width property. I originally had a line this.width += 10; in the onclick but quickly realised why this wasn't working because the this in the onclick function refers to the new button object and not the this.width property of anyObj. The workaround I have used, and it works, is to make a copy of all the this.xxxxx properties. eg. width = this.width; and use the width variable in the onclick as you can see below. This "workaround" works fine but doesn't feel ideal to me. So, what I am asking advice on is, is there a better way to access the anyObj()'s properties from within the onclick function than the way I have done it? Obviously I would prefer to not have to make copies of all the anyObj() properties like I have to make them accessible to the onclick function. Code: function anyObj(divObj){ this.elem = divObj; this.width = 50; this.height = 50; this.increaseWidth=function(){ width = this.width; height = this.height; //create a button for this object to be appended to an element later on var newButton = document.createElement('button'); newButton.onclick=function(){ width += 10; //... //... } //... //... } } OK, There's a script on my site that's included like <script src='somePHPfile.php?params... etc It generates an image with some text in it and a few links. When I click 'view source' it just comes up with the <script> tags and nothing else. In Firefox, if I right click on the actual image and go to this frame > view source, I can see everything it's doing. Is there some way I can access this code with Javascript/jquery? I've tried html/dom parsers, etc. with no luck. I have an html file I've built with embedded Javascript (using ActiveX) that successfully reads a file on my local hard drive when I run the html file through my web browser (IE) locally. However, when I copy the html page up to a webserver and access it through the internet, it doesn't appear to be reading the local file. I'm assuming this can't be done because of security reasons? Am I correct in that? Is there any way using Javascript/ActiveX that you can get a webpage on the internet to access a file on the visitor's local drive? (other than cookies)
Hi all - I'm having difficulty with the processing of 3 forms on my web page. We'll call my 3 forms A, B, and C. By default my page shows form A. The other 2 forms I have hidden via display:none My issue is when I have form B or C showing. Once I hit submit, say within form B for example, I'd like this form to remain for future entries/submital of data. However, instead what happens is form A appears. How do I get form B to remain, allowing for a user to submit multiple entries of data without going back to form A? Here's my code for form 'B' <div id="branches_info" style=" <?php echo $display_branches; ?> "> form method="post" action="annual_report_main.php" onsubmit="return validateBranches(this);"> <fieldset> <p><strong>Branch Location</strong></p><br /> <label for="branch_address" class="long">Street Address:</label> <input maxlength="50" type="text" name="branch_address" id="branch_address" value="<?php echo htmlentities($_POST['branch_address']);?>" /><br /> <div class="cleaner"></div> <label for="branch_city" class="long">City:</label> <input maxlength="20" type="text" name="branch_city" id="branch_city" value="<?php echo htmlentities($_POST['branch_city']);?>" /><br /> <div class="cleaner"></div> <label for="branch_state" class="long">State:</label> <input maxlength="2" type="text" name="branch_state" id="branch_state" value="<?php echo htmlentities($_POST['branch_state']);?>" /><br /> <div class="cleaner"></div> <label for="branch_zip" class="long">Zip Code:</label> <input maxlength="10" type="text" name="branch_zip" id="branch_zip" value="<?php echo htmlentities($_POST['branch_zip']);?>" /><br /> <div class="cleaner"></div> <div class="content_onecolumn"> <input type="submit" name="Branches" value="Submit to Database" class="inputSubmit" /> </div> <div class="content_onecolumn"> <input type="button" name="Finished" value="Finished" class="inputSubmit" onclick="window.open('https://www.dca.ca.gov/webapps/bppe/thankyou.php');return false" /> </div> </fieldset> </form> </div> I'm integrating a JavaScript typing tutorial to my website. But I'm not able to store the value to the database. In the below code you can see the speed is updated in a html span. The id of the tag is speed(<span id="speed"></span>). This code will automatically update when user start typing. I want to update this to a database when user press submit button. But i cant able to. Is there any way to input the speed to database ?

I found this tutorial: http://www.thomasfrank.se/text_color_gradients.html However, only the first "SPAN CLASS" gets gradiented and the other spans don't. In the bottom of the page it says: Quote: If you call the gradientText.set() without any arguments it will go looking for all span tags with class names starting with gradient_ and apply gradients to them But I do not know what it means, I have tried learning a bit of Javascript and I think it could mean something like "if something is something, then". But I'm not sure. Please help, thanks. I'm trying to create a forum for a business. The forum will change depending on what checkbox a person checks in the beginning. I have the checkboxes toggle a certain span. When you check one box it hides one span and displays the other. This works, but I want to position the displayed span at the top so a person doesn't have to look for the other forum. Right now there is just a big white space in the place of the hidden span, so it looks like there is nothing else on the page. I want to move the bottom span to the top when toggled.

But thats kind of irrelevant, here's my question: I have an external style sheet with only this in it (more will be added later for future sections, thats why im making it it's own "css-forms.css" file: Code: .formpad { padding:3px 3px 3px 3px; } In my main .html, some of my javascript for my dynamic table contains lines like these: Code: var esnImeiInput = "<INPUT type=\"text\" name=\"esn_imei[]\" size=\"20\">"; var invoiceInput = "<INPUT type=\"text\" name=\"invoice[]\" size=\"8\">"; var datePurchaseInput = "<INPUT type=\"text\" name=\"date_purchase[]\" size=\"8\">"; var noteInput = "<INPUT type=\"text\" name=\"notes[]\" size=\"18\">"; var trOpenTag = "<tr>"; var trCloseTag = "</tr>"; var tbOpenTag = "<table>"; var formRows = modelInput + reasonInput + esnImeiInput + invoiceInput + datePurchaseInput + noteInput + "<br />"; for(x=0;x<10;x++) { formRows += modelInput + reasonInput + esnImeiInput + invoiceInput + datePurchaseInput + noteInput + "<br />"; } Where inside those vars (INPUT's) would i REFER to the 'class' of .formpad? Basically I just want to add cellpadding to the table that is being dynamically loaded. If anyone has time to help via IM that'd be cool too, this is pretty easy stuff for true coders. (the test page for all of this is currently at: http://planetcellinc.com/rma-rev726.html Any help appreciated, thanks! -Hrl2k I have been looking around on the webs but have not found anything. I can find how to add multiple fields, but what if they reside on different forms on the same page? For example, here is my code with two forms: Code: <FORM name="form1"> <b>Size</b><input type="text" size="12" value="" name="size">* <b>Qty</b><input type="text" size="4" value="" name="qty" onkeyup="convert_to_feet(this.form);calculate_lbs(this.form)"> <b>-</b> <input type=text size="10" value="" name="a1" onkeyup="convert_to_feet(this.form);calculate_lbs(this.form)"><b>mm</b> <input type="text" size="15" value="" name="xtra">* <input type="hidden" size="4" value="304.8" name="b1"> <input type="hidden" value="0" name="ans1" size="10"> <input type="text" size="5" value="0" name="w1" onkeyup="convert_to_feet(this.form);calculate_lbs(this.form)"><b>Lbs/Foot</b> <input type="text" size="7" value="0" name="tw1" readonly="readonly"><b>Total Lbs<b> </FORM> <FORM name="form2"> <b>Size</b><input type="text" size="12" value="" name="size">* <b>Qty</b><input type="text" size="4" value="" name="qty" onkeyup="convert_to_feet(this.form);calculate_lbs(this.form)"> <b>-</b> <input type=text size="10" value="" name="a1" onkeyup="convert_to_feet(this.form);calculate_lbs(this.form)"><b>mm</b> <input type="text" size="15" value="" name="xtra">* <input type="hidden" size="4" value="304.8" name="b1"> <input type="hidden" value="0" name="ans1" size="10"> <input type="text" size="5" value="0" name="w1" onkeyup="convert_to_feet(this.form);calculate_lbs(this.form)"><b>Lbs/Foot</b> <input type="text" size="7" value="0" name="tw1"><b>Total Lbs<b> </FORM> In this example, I want to sum the two fields named "tw1" (the last field on each form) into a text box. Is this possible? Hello all, I am trying to update a site that has a cookie feature enabled so that a certificate can be retrieved later on. I am using a form to collect and put the cookie, but I have to use two buttons to get the information stored and then direct the user on through to the rest of the site. My question is: Can I combine these functions into the same button? I have scoured the web for solutions, but I can't seem to find anyone doing this exact thing. I know that websites do this type of thing all of the time. Here is the code that I am using. I am an html / css person. I am just getting into js. It is ugly, but I'm coping Code: <body> <div id="header"> </div> <div id="main"><br> <h2><SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> cookie_name = "dataCookie"; var YouEntered; function putCookie() { if(document.cookie != document.cookie) {index = document.cookie.indexOf(cookie_name);} else { index = -1;} if (index == -1) { YouEntered=document.cf.cfd.value; document.cookie=cookie_name+"="+YouEntered+"; expires=Saturday, 31-Dec-2011 23:59:59 GMT"; } } </SCRIPT> <FORM NAME="cf"> Enter Your Full Name as you would like it to appear on the completion certificate: <br> <INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="cfd" size="20"> <INPUT TYPE="button" Value="Enter" onClick="putCookie()"> </FORM> <h6>Select Continue to review the information</h6> <FORM METHOD="LINK" ACTION="cookie_2.htm"> <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Continue with Training"> </FORM></h2> </div> <div id="footer"> </div> </body> Normally I would just use document.getElementById to get anything I need but here is my problem: I have a zip code control that I load using AJAX. it has city, state, country, county and zip code. This gets loaded within a business application and at one point you can have both a bill to and ship to address forms on the screen at the same time, loading my zip control with the same fields, same ids and same name. This forced me to now pass in the form name that contains the control. I need to get to divs and spans within this form. Primarily as you type in a city or zip code, I am doing a hot search with a popup div that shows you results you can quickly choose from. The only time this becomes an issue is the situation I mentioned before when the zip code control is on the screen twice. I am not certain how to access the innerHTML of a span or div by way of the form name. Is this possible and if so what is the proper syntax? Here is a very basic example at its simplest form of my problem. Code: <form name="frm_billto" id="frm_billto"> <span id="myspan">Hello</span> </form> <form name="frm_shipto" id="frm_shipto"> <span id="myspan">World</span> </form> In the above example because the control was loaded twice, I now have 2 spans with the same ID. I want the innerHTML of the each span based on the form they are in. We wanted one control that we could use throughout the system that we could update in one place and the entire application be updated. Unfortunately we did not anticipate having it load more than once on the page. Thank you for any help Hello, I'm trying to make a simple webpage with two input text boxes that when submitted when empty, I'll get an error pop-up telling me which ones are empty, both, first name, or last name. When there's only one if, the script works. But when there's multiple else ifs, nothing happens if I press submit. Can someone help me? Code: <html> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> function validateForm() { var x=document.forms["myForm"]["firstname"].value; var y=document.forms["myForm"]["lastname"].value; if (x==null || x=="" && y==null || y=="") { alert("Please put in your first and last name."); return false; } else if (x==null || x=="") { alert("Please put in your first name."); return false; } else if (y==null || y=="") { alert("Please put in your last name."); return false: } } </script> </head> <body> <form name="myForm"> First name: <input type="text" name="firstname"><br> Last name: <input type="text" name="lastname"> <input type="submit" value="Submit" onclick="validateForm()"> </form> </body> </html> fyi, I have limited experience with web programming (even less with javascript). I am trying to search a database of molecules and display several columns for each returned molecule in a table in a new page (view_all.cgi). Within this table I have a button for each molecule from the database which I would like to be able to click it and view all of it's information in a new page (view_one.cgi) However, I also have a column in my table in view_all.cgi filled with check boxes so that only some of the returned molecules can be checked and then downloaded using a script (get_checked.cgi). QUESTION: How can I handle the table data so that one button sends one row of the table to view_one.cgi, while another button sends multiple columns of the table to get_checked.cgi without using nested forms? Thanks, Tom EDIT: A better question. I have the first part of my question working (sending one row of a table to view_one.cgi). So, using javascript, how can I get the status (checked/unchecked) of all the check boxes on a page and send the information to get_checked.cgi? I'm creating a paypal webpage and am having some issues with input values updating based on which item the user has selected. The boxes I need to update are the amount, item number and item name. I have the following code but it only updates the first form. If I make a change to the second set of options it updates the first form instead of the second. Any help would be much appreciated.

I would really appreciate any help you guys can give me. Thanks a lot. I posted a thread a few days ago concerning a bit of javascript code to make checking one checkbox clear another one. I got some great, prompt help. However, I just got back to working on that web page, and realized that the functions only work on the first form on my web page. I have many forms and they are actively named using php. Here's are the functions (these works for just the first form on the page): Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function undo_Changes() { if (document.getElementById("Complete").checked==true) { document.getElementById("Needs_Change").checked=false; } } function undo_Complete() { if (document.getElementById("Needs_Change").checked==true) { document.getElementById("Complete").checked=false; } } </script> I call them from the checkboxes involved: Code: <input name="Complete" id="Complete" value="Yes" <?php echo($Complete=="Yes") ? "checked" : ""; ?> size="4" type="checkbox" onChange="this.style.color='#FF0000'" onClick="undo_Changes()"> <input name="Needs_Change" id="Needs_Change" value="Yes" <?php echo($Needs_Change=="Yes") ? "checked" : ""; ?> size="4" type="checkbox" onClick="undo_Complete()"> Here's how my forms are named: Code: <?php $DocName = "Schedule".$count; ?> <form name="<?php echo $DocName; ?>" action="ScheduleCode.php" method="post" id="<?php echo $DocName; ?>"> I've tried the following and it doesn't work at all: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function undo_Changes(myForm) { if (myForm.getElementById("Complete").checked==true) { myForm.getElementById("Needs_Change").checked=false; } } function undo_Complete(myForm) { if (myForm.getElementById("Needs_Change").checked==true) { myForm.getElementById("Complete").checked=false; } } </script> <input name="Complete" id="Complete" value="Yes" <?php echo($Complete=="Yes") ? "checked" : ""; ?> size="4" type="checkbox" onChange="this.style.color='#FF0000'" onClick="undo_Changes(this.form)"> <input name="Needs_Change" id="Needs_Change" value="Yes" <?php echo($Needs_Change=="Yes") ? "checked" : ""; ?> size="4" type="checkbox" onClick="undo_Complete(this.form)"> Thanks for any help. Lisa |
