JavaScript - Suggestions For Real-time Contact Form Validation?
Hello,
I have an existing php contact form which incorporates php validation (required name with only characters, valid email address format, and minimum message length) and re-captcha. I would like to add some "real time" validation to the fields on my form (there are 3 fields - name, email and message) before the "Submit" button is pressed. For example when the user tabs from one text box to the next but hasn't filled in the required information. I am totally new to any type of java, but am I right in thinking I need either JavaScript, Ajax or JQuery to perform real-time validation? If so, which should I be looking into and are there any basic examples of form validation? I want to keep my pup validation as I'm aware that php is client-side but still needed as people can turn Java off in their web browsers. Any tips and pointers will be very much appreciated! Thankyou, Tom Similar Tutorialsi cant see to get my finger on the validation correctly, im trying to achieve that: (*) Required fields are required in the final submission All other fields are validated by their content type But all fields without (*) Required are not needed for the form to be submitted http://www.on-media.co.uk/clients/hlmd/ http://www.on-media.co.uk/clients/hl...ipt/contact.js is the below code: Code: function formValidator(){ // Make quick references to our fields var name = document.getElementById('name'); var sname = document.getElementById('sname'); var phone = document.getElementById('phone'); var cell = document.getElementById('cell'); var calltime = document.getElementById('calltime'); var email = document.getElementById('email'); var address = document.getElementById('address'); var zip = document.getElementById('zip'); var loana = document.getElementById('loana'); var loanb = document.getElementById('loanb'); var balance = document.getElementById('balance'); // Check each input in the order that it appears in the form! if(isAlphabet(name, "Please enter only letters for your name")){ if(isAlphabet(sname, "Please enter only letters for your surname")){ if(isNumeric(phone, "please enter only numbers for your phone number")){ if(isNumeric(cell, "please enter only numbers for your cell number")){ if(madeSelection(calltime, "Please select a time for your callback")){ if(isAlphanumeric(address, "please enter your address in numbers and letters")){ if(isNumeric(zip, "Please enter a valid zip code")){ if(emailValidator(email, "Please enter a valid email address")){ if(isAlphanumeric(loana, "Please enter the value of your loan")){ if(isAlphanumeric(loanb, "Please enter the value of your loan")){ if(madeSelection(balance, "Select the duration you are behind on your loan re-payments")){ return true; } } } } } } } } } } } return false; } function notEmpty(elem, helperMsg){ if(elem.value.length == 0){ alert(helperMsg); elem.focus(); // set the focus to this input return false; } return true; } function isNumeric(elem, helperMsg){ var numericExpression = /^[0-9]+$/; if(elem.value.match(numericExpression)){ return true; }else{ alert(helperMsg); elem.focus(); return false; } } function isAlphabet(elem, helperMsg){ var alphaExp = /^[a-zA-Z]+$/; if(elem.value.match(alphaExp)){ return true; }else{ alert(helperMsg); elem.focus(); return false; } } function isAlphanumeric(elem, helperMsg){ var alphaExp = /^[0-9a-zA-Z]+$/; if(elem.value.match(alphaExp)){ return true; }else{ alert(helperMsg);

Thanks for your help if you give some I have heard that it is wrong to just do client validtion. SO can anyone help me with my form? The code below, has client validation and php and I am not sure that I have got it right. Also I would need to cover server side validation too but have no idea on how to do this. I must say I have very small knowledge of JS. Does anyone know the easiest method of doing forms with php, JS server and client side validation.

However, I want to achieve to display the time difference between a given start and end time. Right now, it calculates from the current server time to the end time. I want to be able to set up my own start time and end time. Here is what I have: http://jsfiddle.net/BgEtE/ thank you for help Hi everyone, hope you can help. I've got a JS events calendar on my website, and on one of the entries I want the ticket link not to appear until a certain time & date (9:30am, Fri 29 Apr 2011, UTC+1). I've written the code for this to work: Code: var releasetime = 1304065800000 var currentdate = new Date() var currenttime = currentdate.getTime() if (currenttime >= releasetime){ document.write("<a href=\"ticket link\" rel="nofollow" target=\"_blank\">BUY TICKETS</a>") } And that's all good and working fine. EXCEPT, because it's taking the time & date from the local machine, all the user has to do is change the date on his PC to be able to see the ticket link. Is there any way to get the *actual* date & time? Thanks Cliff I need to make a counter that counts up (preferably in real time but not crucial). Ideally, it would count up by 9 dollars per second and go to the hundred millions. Thanks in advance!

I've coded up my form in html / css and added some scripts i found online that should prevent users from submitting the form without the fields filled in. However the form only seems to work in chrome, safari and yet firefox it lets users submit without needing anything filled in. my form is he http://www.rhombusone.com/projecttiger/contact.html Also targeting the error text so that it appears below the field box instead of being all over the place, what value am i targeting? Thanks M Hello all, new here Seems like a very nice place to be apart of. I have my website www.gebcn.com. If you view source you will see all that I have done, but more importantly my problem. I have the JS code at the top there and I am unable to W3C validate my HTML because of the JS. I am using XHTML strict and would like to stay using it. The JS I have at the top is my form validation code. I am able to do any validating that I need with this "snippet" of code, I have shrank it from my library version just to use for this newsletter. Until now W3C validating was not important now for some reason it is and I am faced with this problem. I am not a Javascript guy more of a HTML/CSS guy and I can manipulate JS to suit my needs. <problem> I have tried to make this "snippet" of JS code an external file but receive multiple errors with the JS calling for the FORM NAME as it is not on the same page. The form NAME=NEWSLETTER is another problem, as W3C says I am unable to use attribute "NAME" in this location. <problem> I would like to keep the JS close to how it is now as I have a library to use this JS over and over again. Any pointers in the right direction or solutions to my problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Hopefully it is not to hard huh If there is anything anyone needs, the code pasted here, or anything else please let me know. Thanks again! Hi, I have created a website which employs javascript contact forms. There is a javascript contact form located on the left of every page of the website which works fine but on the contact page where there are two forms the main form on the page does not work. The contact us page is located he http://www.goodletterwriting.co.uk/contact-us.html The two javascript files that are being used a http://www.goodletterwriting.co.uk/scripts/scripts.js & http://www.goodletterwriting.co.uk/scripts2/scripts2.js Can somebody please help? Thanks in advance, Peter Basically I can't get it to work. I'm following this tutorial and I'm not able to hide the error messages, or just get the form to submit. I could really use some direction. Here is the page I am working on: http://www.mustlovepink.com/public_html/contact.php Does someone know how to let 2 of the same type of contact form, working on the same page? Because i have the contact form on the footer of my page, and when you visit at the mennu: contact us, the same contact form will be shown. But it wont work, only the one in the footer. Code: // Form submission $('#contact-form').submit(function() { // Hide any message $('span#contact-msg').css('opacity', 0); // Build data string var fields = [ 'name', 'email', 'message' ]; var data = 'ajax=1'; for (var i = 0; i < fields.length; i++) data += '&' + fields[i] + '=' + encodeURI($('#' + fields[i]).val()); // Submit $.ajax( { url : $('#contact-msg').attr('action'), dataType: 'json', data: data, type: 'POST', success: function(data) { if (data.sent == true) { $('span#contact-msg').html('Thanks for the message. I will get back to you as soon as possible.'); $('#send').css('backgroundPosition', '-207px -168px'); $('#send').attr('disabled', 'disabled'); } else $('span#contact-msg').html(data.error); $('span#contact-msg').animate( { opacity: 1 }, 400); } }); return false; }); I got this code for an contact form, but where can I set the email address to send to? Hello JScript gurus, though I am quite an advanced and experienced VB& .NET programmer, I am totally new to Jscript coding, (I don't actually code Jscript) but I build websites all the same too. I am also new here. I really need help from you gurus here. I am working on a website and I really wish to incorporate a contact or an order form to it so that when the user fills in the fields and clicks send, I receive the data in my email. I have made some searches and found quite a few but all didn't touch on how I retrieve my data. Please help me. I will be very grateful. Thank you. I already have the html and the php part of my form. My Form already can be verified using only php, but i would also like it to use javascipt so they dont have to load a new page just to say ''this field is blank"" im not very intelligent with javascipt so im just looking that if the user does not have a field that is needed that a red mark comes up around it or next to it saying you need to fill it out.

Thanks in advance. Hei! I am trying to use a contact form which appears in a lightbox from : http://www.xul.fr/javascript/lightbox-form.html It is working great but, of course I have a problem. My page is very big and when I want my page to scroll to the point where the form is. I am using window.scrollTo function. the problem is that before scrolling to that point , it automatically scrolls to the coordinates (0,0) and only after that. I am posting my javascript and css code. Thanks for your help ! JAVASCRIPT Code: function gradient(id, level) { var box = document.getElementById(id); box.style.opacity = level; box.style.MozOpacity = level; box.style.KhtmlOpacity = level; box.style.filter = "alpha(opacity=" + level * 100 + ")"; box.style.display="block"; if(id=='boxa') { window.scrollTo(2500,0); } else { window.scrollTo(100,100); } return; } function fadein(id) { var level = 0; while(level <= 1) { setTimeout( "gradient('" + id + "'," + level + ")", (level* 1000) + 10); level += 0.01; } } function openbox(formtitle, fadin,boxtitle,boxN) { var box = document.getElementById(boxN); document.getElementById('filter').style.display='block'; //var btitle = document.getElementById(boxtitle); // btitle.innerHTML = formtitle; // var btitle = document.getElementById(boxtitle); // btitle.innerHTML = formtitle; if(fadin) { gradient(boxN, 0); fadein(boxN); } else { box.style.display='block'; } } // Close the lightbox function closebox() { document.getElementById('box').style.display='none'; document.getElementById('filter').style.display='none'; document.getElementById('boxa').style.display='none'; document.getElementById('filter').style.display='none'; } CSS Code: #filter { display: none; position: absolute; top: -500px; left: -500px; width: 7200px; height: 3300px; background-color: #000; z-index:10; opacity:0.5; filter: alpha(opacity=50); } #box { display: none; position: absolute; top: 20%; left: 20%; width: 400px; height: 200px; padding: 48px; margin:0; border: 1px solid black; background-color: white; z-index:101; overflow: none; } #boxtitle { position:absolute; float:center; top:0; left:0; width:496px; height:24px; padding:0; padding-top:4px; left-padding:8px; margin:0; border-bottom:4px solid #3CF; background-color: #09c; color:white; text-align:center; } #boxa { display: none; position: absolute; top: 350px; left: 2950px; width: 700px; height: 200px; padding: 48px; z-index:101; overflow: visible; /* background-image: url(../imagini/tutorial.png); */ background-repeat:no-repeat; } Friends, I want a simple contact form of 3 fields on my website which emails data on my email address or write a file on my server or just other any way inform me that data. But I dont want that "submit" button redirects to other 'thankyou' page where code is located. Plzzzzzzzz suggest or tell me what I have to do?? Hi! I would like to show you guys the JavaScript that i using for my contact form /*----- Code goes here by clicking the link -----*/ http://web.ezenne.com/js/completeValid.js The above code was copied from a Youtube tutorial about JavaScript. I would like to ask, what additional code should be added in the existing code in order to validate the numbers only and an email format before the form to be submitted? Thanks! Regards, Ezenne Hey there guys, I am building a site of which I would like the contact information and form to pop up from the button on the menu/header frame into the main frame as a lightbox ...no matter which page is loaded in the main frame. I was trying to experiment with the archived "jQuery Contact form for your website" tutorial from web devlopment blog . com. (I didnt want to post a link to it as I dont want to possibly flag the moderators) Any Ideas? Go to http://whitetailfantasies.com to see the layout and what I am going for. Thanks |
