JavaScript - How To Send One Form Field To Another Page
Hello,
First off thank you for looking at my post. Please forgive me if I do something incorrectly here. I have never posted in a forum before. You are very kind to assist me in this problem. I wish to send the javascript calculated value in a form from one page to another page form. I just need the one value sent. The value is "answer: in the code below. I would like to send it to a form page called "answer.html" I am not a computer person, and I am doing this in frontpage. I do not know how to write java or anything, I just copied this from a free script site and am trying to use it. Thank you once again for your kindness and patience with me. Thanks to all you experts! Michael here is the code I have. --------------------------------------------- Code: <table cellspacing=0 width=427

function findcalculatorcalculate(form) {
a = form.debt.value - 0;
b = form.faith.value - 0;
d = a / b;
form.answer.value = Math.round (d);
}</script>

------------------------ Thank you again for helping me in plain language because I do not have the skills that all of you do. Similar TutorialsI have an html page "PageA" which contains a "link" to another html page "PageB". The link is handled as a form submit because PageA sends some variables which it wants "processed". However, PageB is NOT a CGI script but simply another html page which happens to contain a form. This form handles the desired processing. I would appreciate some help getting some javascript in place, in PageA, in order to automatically fill in a form field in PageB with a variable supplied by PageA. The complications here a 1) PageB is not a CGI script and so sending variables via a query string does not work. (The variables never get read by PageB.) 2) PageB is maintained by another organisation so I cannot modify it. (Actually I could, as I have a local copy, but I would have to redo after every new release and so this is not acceptable.) It therefore needs to be treated as an independent page. 3) The variable is quite a lengthy one, it is extracted from a database and changes depending on how PageA was called, so I want to do this for repeated instances and cutting and pasting to a new page on each occasion is not attractive. 4) I would like to open PageB in a separate window or tab as I want to be able to reference both pages at once. (This is not essential to the key problem but may influence the solution. A solution which depended on the window being the same I would not regard as satisfactory.) The relationship between the documents is probably most accurately described as "PageB is a section of PageA". It is providing some additional information on aspects of what is in PageA. The output from submission of PageB can be quite lengthy. The actual form field in PageB I want to fill in is a textarea element and I know its name (call it name1) and also the name of the form (call it form1). But I don't think the field type should be important. I simply want to update its value (presumably after a page load?). Is this possible without editing PageB? I would appreciate some guidance if not a proven solution. Perhaps I have overlooked something but I can't find a working solution to this particular problem and my experiments to date don't work. Thanks I have a form with three fields. When the user changes the value of field1, the form displays either field2 or field3. This works fine for NEW records. However, I'm running into a problem when trying to EDIT an existing record. When the form is loaded, I need to test the value of field1 and display either field2 or field3. I've tried using the form onload event, but do not know how to access the value of field1. I'm using Javascript and div tags. This is what I have so far. <script type="text/javascript"> function hide(obj) obj1 = document.getElementById(obj); obj1.style.display = 'none'; } function show(obj) { obj1 = document.getElementById(obj); obj1.style.display = 'block'; } function show_other(optionValue) { if(optionValue=='C') { show('divClass');} else{hide('divClass'); } if(optionValue=='W') { show('divWorkshop');} else{hide('divWorkshop'); } } </script> /* Field1 - is a drop down list */ <select name="ClassType" size="1" onchange="show_other(this.value)"> ... </select> /* Field2 */ <div id="divClass"> ... </div> /* Field 3 */ <div id="divWorkshop"> ... </div> Appreciate any assistance. Thanks Peter I have a form in an iframe that submits nicely. Here is one of the hidden fields that gives the page to redirect to after submitting the form: Code: <input type="hidden" name="rtrn" value="http://www.domain.com/thanks.html" target="_parent"> The parent target doesn't work, does anyone know how I get the thanks page to replace the page containing the iframe? 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 all, Thanks for reading. I'm having an issue trying to accomplish the following - I have a text field (field1) already displayed on the HTML page. However, there's a link where you can add additional text fields to the page as well. When the link is clicked, the second text field is added successfully (field2), and when the link is clicked again, the third text field (field3) is added successfully. However, the third field does not add itself to the page, and the text for anything greater than a third field also isn't displayed after. This obviously means that my "fields" variable is not working right, so I'm wondering, would anyone be able to assist me to help me get that variable processing correctly? Code: <script language="javascript">
fields = 1;
function addMore() {
if (fields = 1) {
document.getElementById('addedMore').innerHTML = "<input type='text' name='field2' size='25' /> <span>Field 2.</span>";
fields = 2;
} else if (fields = 2) {
document.getElementById('addedMore').innerHTML = "<input type='text' name='field3' size='25' /> <span>Field 3.</span>";
fields = 3;
} else {
document.getElementById('addedMore').innerHTML = "Only 3 fields are allowed.";
document.form.add.disabled=true;
}
}
</script>
Here is the code in my HTML - Code: <input type="text" name="field1" size="25" /> <span>Field 1.</span> <div id="addedMore"></div> <p class="addMore"><form name="add"><a onclick="addMore()">Add another field.</a></form></p> Thank you very much. Hello, I would like to know how can I send the selection from a dropdown from a webpage to another. In the first page where I have the dropdown list, I have this: Code: <td valign="top" align="left" nowrap width="90%">
<input name="time" style="width:100%" />
</td>
<td valign="top" align="left" nowrap width="50">
<select name="time2">
<option value="60">Minutes</option>
<option value="3600">Hour</option>
<option value="86400">Days</option>
</select>
</td>
In the second page, where I want this selection to be dispalyed, I created this code: Code: <td width="188" valign="top" align="left" nowrap> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">document.write(window.opener.document.form.elements["time"].value + " " + window.opener.document.form.elements["time2"].value);</SCRIPT> </td> The issue I have with this is that the value dispalyed for the "time2" element is the actual attribute value (for instance 60) and not the actual value (for instance "Minutes"). If anyone have a clue what I'm doing wrong, I appreciate your help. Regards, Hi all. I have a form that I am writing which needs to send information contained inside a textbox when the user presses the "Post Comment" button. I want it be sent as a parameter to the addComment() function. How can you do this??? I have been trying to figure it out for a while now but can't seem to get the syntax right. This is what my code looks like currently. If possible I would like this to work without referencing the name of this form. Code: <form method="post" name="form" action="" style="padding:0px; margin:0px;"> <textarea name="content" id="content" style="width:600px; height:114px; font-family:Verdana,Arial,Tahoma,Times New Roman; font-size:12px; border:1px #666 solid;" onFocus="this.value=''; this.onfocus=null;">Enter your comment...</textarea><br /> <input type="submit" value="Post Comment" id="v" name="submit" onclick="addComment(this.content.value);" /> <span id="wait"></span><span id="flash"></span> </form> I am trying to give uses the ability to email a web page in addition to print the pages but I cannot get the web page to post as the body of the email. Here is what the print function looks like: Code: function OnPrint() {
var contentWindow = GetContentFrame().contentWindow;
{
contentWindow.focus();
contentWindow.print();
}
}
and here is where I stand on the email the page(not just a link to the page) Code: function mailpage()
{
mail_str = "mailto:optilinksupport@seton.org?subject=Check out the " + document.title;
mail_str += "&body=I thought you might be interested in the " + document.title;
mail_str += ". You can view it at, " + location.href;
location.href = mail_str;
}
The above work great if I want to send a link to the page. How do I amend the above so that the the mail_str = contentWindow html? And do I need to do make other changes to format the email as html rather than text? Thank for a rookie! Hi there, I guess my question is very novice but I have to ask it. I can find lots of "form applications" on internet. But anytime I check them I cannot see any "send" button help. I mean I know that when I click it, it wont send the informations to my e-mail page. Because they don't show where to insert my email address there, in the example. So how can we make a form work for us, how can we arrange it to send the informations to our e-mail address? Do we need to use a php file for it? if yes, how? Regards and Thanks in advance Is it possible to use JavaScript to send a HTML FORM this way? (By the way, this is a huge guess - I don't know JavaScript very well) Code: <SCRIPT type="text/javascript">
function Cart1Function() {
get.INPUT.quantity.value
send.to.formsubmit1.php
}
function Cart2Function() {
get.INPUT.quantity.value
send.to.formsubmit2.php
}
</SCRIPT>
<FORM action="?" method="post" name="form">
<DIV>
<INPUT type="text" name="quanitity">
<INPUT type="submit" value="CART 1" onClick="Cart1Function">
<INPUT type="submit" value="CART 2" onClick="Cart2Function">
<DIV>
</FORM>
I want to make two forms sharing the same input (quantity). Hi; I have three files login.php, process.php and catcher.php. The first one contain the form, the second file is the form action and the last is a second file which must receive the form request as well but not getting redirected to it. login.php content : PHP Code: <form action="process.php" method="post"> <input type="text" name="userid"> <input type="password" name="userpwd"> <input type="submit" value="Submit"> </form> So I want the user who click on the Submit button get redirected to process.php as usual and at the seem time send a copy of the request into catcher.php. I am thinking for a hidden iframe but don't know how to de it. Regards Hi, i'm sabrina from Asia. i'm new here and a new student in javascript.

I need to fo a form and the content be sent to a database but i'm stuck... I knwo hot to do forms and also how to send data to mysql using php. But now i need something a bit more complex and i'm stuck. I need to make a form lets say with "parent name, age, child name, child age" Some people has 1 child some people has 2 3 4...and i need to have it separated and not just write like "joe, bob, jack" in the same line.

Code: href="index2.php?q=4&id=+document.theForm.lists.value+&picklist" I need to learn how to clear form fields when a user clicks on them. Here is the site in question: http://www.yourvancouvermortgagebroker.ca/apply They used to work, but then I changed the field value and now it doesn't work on some of the fields (whichever ones I changed).

The reason for this is that the form has add buttons to add another field or fields for the purpose of entering another email address, etc., to send invitations and do other things. The problem that I am running into is how to access the individual fields in an array of fields inside javascript to do form validation. So if I have an email address field name emailAddress[], and using the add button, the user of my site adds 3 other copies of the emailAddress[] field, I want to then do form validation onSubmit to ensure those email address are valid using standard procedures. However, inside the javascript code, how do I access the individual fields that make up emailAddress[]? I just cannot find anywhere online the proper way to get at these values. If anyone can help me, I would greatly appreciate it. Happy Holidays Hi! I use the :: Form field Progress Bar from DynamicDrive: Form field Progress Bar Now I trided to change the text when the textarea is full "Limit:100%" to "Your max. characters is reached" I trided it but with no luck. This is the main code.. Code: <script type="text/JavaScript">
function textCounter1(field,counter,maxlimit,linecounter) {
// text width//
var fieldWidth = 137;
var charcnt = field.value.length;
// trim the extra text
if (charcnt > maxlimit) {
field.value = field.value.substring(0, maxlimit);
}
else {
// progress bar percentage
var percentage = parseInt(100 - (( maxlimit - charcnt) * 100)/maxlimit) ;
document.getElementById(counter).style.width = parseInt((fieldWidth*percentage)/100)+"px";
document.getElementById(counter).innerHTML="Limiet: "+percentage+"%"
// color correction on style from CCFFF -> CC0000
setcolor(document.getElementById(counter),percentage,"background-color");
}
}
function setcolor(obj,percentage,prop){
obj.style[prop] = "rgb(80%,"+(100-percentage)+"%,"+(100-percentage)+"%)";
}
</script>
This is the place where the text is set. Code: ((fieldWidth*percentage)/100)+"px"; document.getElementById(counter).innerHTML="Limiet: "+percentage+"%" Help would be highly appreciated ! greetings Jardin |
