Hi guys,

I'm looking for a way i can set some of the mailto form data - mainly the full name and holiday start date into the subject line of the email.

this is the code for my form:

Code:

<html>
<head>
<body bgcolor="#DCDCDC">
<font size="3" face="tahoma" color="#000000">
<form action="MAILTO:email@email.co.uk?subject=Holiday Request" method="post" enctype="text/plain" font-weight: bold; size="10" maxlength="30">

Form Mailto With Checkboxes?

Similar Tutorials

View Content

I have a question and I'm hoping someone may have some suggestions on how to solve.

I found a script on this forum that does almost what I want from this thread:
http://codingforums.com/showthread.php?t=184011 (thank you Philip M!)

Instead of a dropdown, I'd like to have a list of names using check boxes, so that you have the option to send an email to one or all of the people. When you choose your selections and click submit, an outlook email will pop up with your selections in the to: field.

Is this possible?

Here's the solutuin using a drop down, this works (and works well), but doesn't quite do what I need :

<form name="Contact_Us" id="contact" method="post" enctype="text/plain" onsubmit = "getEml()">
<fieldset id="selection">
Who would you would like to email:
<select name = "sel">
<option value="email1@email.com" >email 1</option>
<option value="email2@email.com" >email 2</option>
<option value="email3@email.com" >email 3</option>
</select>
<input type = "submit" value = "Submit the form">
</form>

<script type = "text/javascript">
function getEml() {
var emailaddress = document.Contact_Us.sel.value;
window.location = "mailto:" + emailaddress;
}

</script>

Is there a way to use checkboxes but to do the same thing?

<INPUT TYPE=CHECKBOX NAME="name1@email.com">name 1<BR>
<INPUT TYPE=CHECKBOX NAME="name2@email.com">name 2<BR>
<INPUT TYPE=CHECKBOX NAME="name3@email.com">name 3<BR>

	var itemPrice = parseFloat(formName.substring(formName.lastIndexOf("_") + 1));
 
	// Get the Quantity
	var itemQuantity = parseInt(formField.value);
 
	// Update the OrderValue
	if(itemQuantity >= 0) {
	orderValue += itemQuantity * itemPrice;
	}
	}
    }
	
	// Display the totals
    orders.totalExcl.value = "R " + orderValue.toLocaleString();
    
    // function to calculate VAT at 15% as required and total inclusive.
	function calcTotals(oValue) {
	var vat = oValue * .15;
	var totalIncluding = oValue + vat;
	var tDelivery = Number( orders.delivery.value.substring(2) );
	var theTotalOrder = totalIncluding + tDelivery;

	orders.totalIncl.value = "R " + totalIncluding.toLocaleString();
	orders.totalOrder.value = "R " + theTotalOrder.toLocaleString();

New Thread On Window Resizing

Similar Tutorials

View Content

hi,

deleted old thread, since that didn't answer problem. posting
code because of all the dynamic variables would be confusing.

so, if anyone can help, here's some link instructions:

1) go to http://www.vehicle411.com

2) in the "vehicle classifieds" panel just click "search" which will
bring up 68 vehicles.

3) click on link for any vehicle, which will display vehicle information in a popup window.

up to this point everything is fine. BUT when you click the popup's
"connect" button to link to a dealership the new window is
undersized (actually, if it replaced the original vehicle411 window
that would be fine).

have tried a lot of different combinations, including the
<a href="javascript:photowindow('dealerurl')"> suggested in
the other post gives weird result showing
javascript:photowindow('dealerurl') in the address window
instead of the actual url--meaning it doesn't call the photowindow
function.

P.S. if you look at the source--all the server values are passed
correctly and don't interfere with the code. right now, I've got
a simple <a href="dealerurl"> instead of the JS method. Also,
have hard coded values to make sure dynamic stuff was working--
and they work. what's really annoying is that I've used just about
the same JS code to create that vehicle popups.

P.P.S. went back and changed code to using <a href="#" etc.
which doesn't work either. but have a direct url for anyone
reading this (when clicking on "connect" button it's just
creating a copy of itself!!!

Concatenating Form Field Variables

Similar Tutorials

View Content

Hello,

I have several event handlers on my page; one of them doesn't work. I'll post them all here, indicating how they are executed:

#1: Works
[CODE]<script type="text/javascript">
function combName() {
var fname = document.forms[0].fname.value;
var lname = document.forms[0].lname.value;
document.forms[0].name.value = fname + " " + lname;
}
</script>[CODE]
NOTE: The "lname" field uses "onKeyUp" to make the script run. A hidden field named "name" is populated with the concatenation.

#2: Works
(this script is too long to post; it is a validation script and runs via the "onSubmit" in the form tag.)

#3: Doesn't Work
[CODE]<script type="text/javascript">
function combPrograms()
{
document.forms[0].00N70000002WNax.value = "1st Choice: " + document.forms[0].sf1.value + document.forms[0].alameda1.value + document.forms[0].sanmateo1.value + document.forms[0].marin.value + document.forms[0].cc1.value + "2nd Choice: " + document.forms[0].sf2.value + document.forms[0].alameda2.value + document.forms[0].sanmateo2.value + document.forms[0].marin2.value +
document.forms[0].cc2.value;
}
</script>[CODE]
Note:
1. Not all of the values for Choice 1 and Choice 2 are populated.
2. For that reason, one of the later, unrelated text fields in the form has "onKeyUp="combPrograms()" to run the event.
3. A hidden field named 00N70000002WNax is populated with the concatenation.

Any help is much appreciated!

Inserting Variables Into Document.form.name.value

So I've got an order form that uses javascript to immediately calculate the price as soon as you enter the quantity that you want to order:

Code:

<form method="post" action="submitted.html" name="form">
  <table id="order-table">
    <tr>
        <td>Widgets</td>
        <td><input type="text" name="quantityWidgets" onchange="calculate()"></input></td>
	<td> x </td>
	<td>$650</td>
	<td>=</td>
	<td><input type="text" name="totalWidgets" disabled="disabled"></input></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</form>

And here's the Javascript

Code:

function calculate(){
	total = document.form.quantityWidgets.value * 650;
	document.form.totalWidgets.value = total;
}

But that's just for 1 row and I have several rows of products. I could just use a different calculate() function for each row, but I'm trying to pass arguments into calculate() AND make it display the result in the proper place, but my syntax must be wrong.

Code:

...
<td><input type="text" name="quantityWidgets" onchange="calculate(quantityWidgets, 650, totalWidgets)"></input></td>
...
function calculate(quantity, price, total){
	total = document.form.quantity.value * price;
	document.form.total.value = total;
}

Can anyone help me please?

I am really having a hard time using the document.write function, and am not sure how to employ it, whether in the same script statement or in a separate script in the body.

Concatenating Form Field Variables

I need help troubleshooting javascript I am using to concatenate two fields in a form and populating a hidden field with them.

Here's the javascript:
<script type="text/javascript">
function combName() {
var fname = document.forms[0].fname.value;
var lname = document.forms[0].lname.value;
document.forms[0].name.value = fname + " " lname;
}
</script>

Here are the form fields:
<input id="fname" name="fname" type="text">
<input id="lname" name="lname" type="text" onKeyUp="combName()">
<input name="name" type="hidden" id="name" size="20" maxlength="80">
<input name="Submit" type="submit" id="OnSubmit" value="OnSubmit">

What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Passing Variables Into A Function From A Form

Hi, I am quite new to javascript but I'm quite sure this problem is very easy to solve.

I have a vague idea of what might be going wrong but I have no idea what I should be doing instead. Here is what I'm trying to do:

User inputs X and Y coordinates into form
validate that they are numbers
do a little bit of maths
redirect to a php script with a single variable tacked onto the end of the url

Here is the form code:

Code:

//part of a larger php script to make the form

echo "<form name='gotoForm' onsubmit='return coordCalc()'>

<fieldset>
<legend>Go to Square</legend>
X <input type='text' id='X' size='1' maxlength='3'/>
Y <input type='text' id='Y' size='1' maxlength='3'/>
<input type='submit' 

	value='Go To' />
	</fieldset>
	</form> ";

which references these functions in the header:

Code:

//Is it a number

	function isNumeric(elem, helperMsg){
	var numericExpression = /^[0-9]+$/;
	if(elem.value.match(numericExpression)){
		return true;
	}else{
		alert(helperMsg);
		elem.focus();
		return false;
	}
	}
		
//deal with the input, check if they are both numbers with the above function
//if they are do some maths on the input 
//add the result onto a url and redirect

	function coordCalc (){
				
		var Xcoord = document.getElementById('X');
		var Ycoord = document.getElementById('Y');
	
		if(isNumeric(Xcoord, "Please enter a Number for X")){
		if(isNumeric(Ycoord, "Please enter a Number for Y")){

//Takes the X and Y coordinates and transforms them into a single number
//not fully coded in case you try putting some numbers into the formula btw :)
		
		
                var X = parseInt(document.getElementById('X').value);
		var Y = parseInt(document.getElementById('Y').value);


                var G = 16;
		var Z = (((G + 1) - Y) - Y);
		var A = (Y + Z);
		var B = (X - 1);
		var L = ((A * (G - 1)) + B);

		window.location = "map.php?start=" + L;

			}		
		}
	return false;
										
	}

The number validation works but the url ends up as map.php?start=NaN.

Now, this simply must be the way I am assigning the Xcoord and Ycoord variables with the document.getElementByID() function I am sure.

But like I said, I have no idea what to do instead, any help is massively appreciated.

Thankyou!
