JavaScript - Enabling Submit Button On Website

I am trying to auto submit a login form remotely using .submit() . It's submitting, but for some reason if I use submit() the login isn't processing.
However, if I turn off the auto submit and use an actual submit button it logs in just fine.

Now, in the form tag there is a call onsubmit for some validation, does .submit() trigger that form onsubmit="" function?

Is there something that happens differently when a user clicks a button verses the .submit().

Thanks!
Paul

Hi everyone,

I have a problem with something I am trying to do.
I have a submit button and once I press it I want it to add a post value to my website.
For example my website is www.something.net/test.php
and once I press it I want it to refresh the site and becomes something like

www.something.net/test.php&ca=test
In other words I want it to use POST and then using GET I can get the value of the POST. I have posted this under javascript because I believe I have a problem with the javascript I use.
Here is the javascript and the button I use

Javascript
Code:

			function reload(val)
			{
			//var val=form.accept.id;
			self.location='test.php?ca=' + val ;
			}

Button
Code:

<form name='form1' method='post' action='' STYLE='margin: 0px; padding: 0px;'>
<input type='submit' name='accept' id='trial' value='Approve' onclick=\"reload(test)\" />
</form></div></td>";

Can you please help me with that?

I need help making this timed quiz so when you hit submit it goes into a mysql database. right now it just tells you if you answered correctly or not

Here is the code:

what color is the grass?

<input type = "text" id = "answer">
<input type = "button" id = "time" onclick="answer()">

<script type = "text/javascript">
var n = 60; // modify this for number of seconds to answer
document.getElementById( 'time').value = "Answer in " + n + " seconds";
var i = setInterval('count()' , 1000);
var tooLate;

function count() {
tooLate = 0;
n--;
if(n >=0) {
document.getElementById( 'time').value = "Answer in " + n + " seconds";
}
else {
clearInterval(i);
alert("Too late!");
document.getElementById('answer').value = "";
tooLate = 1;
}
}

function answer() {

var correct = "green"; // This is the correct answer
if (tooLate == 0) {
if(document.getElementById( 'answer').value == correct) {
clearInterval(i);
alert("Right Answer with " + n + " seconds remaining");
}
else{
clearInterval(i);
alert("Incorrect! The answer was " + correct);
}
}
}
</script>

in addtocart function I do some checking

how can i change that if after some checking my variable valid=0 that it does not allow the user to submit the form?

How exactly would you validate a form with JavaScript if instead of using the regular input type="submit" to allow submission you used input type="image"?

Hi all, i have seen that there is an input type 'reset' which i presum clears all fields in a form? But anyway i did not know this existed and my implementation requires a bit more sophistication so i had already written code to do a custom reset of the boxes whilst keeping and updating certain key values. This works fine.

My question is, for the actual 'submit' of the data in a form do i have to use a button of type 'submit'? It is actually better for me in this instance that i do not as the special message windows i am using will close - and in the case of errors in the user input this is not desirable - so i have written the error handling etc with window staying open in mind, so that user can correct their errors and resubmit.

To accomplish this i changed my input into type 'button' and it works fine

When i click 'the submit button' it checks fields for valid data first - can i use its return value to somehow activate or not the actual form data sending?

Like i have

Code:

<input type = "button" style = "font-size:18;" value= "  Submit  "onclick = "CheckValid()"/>

I could be calling 'SendForm()' or something here instead and have check valid called from within SendForm() i norder to determin it's return type, how can i use this to decide if the form data is valid to send or not? and how could i use the return value in the html like this?

should i A: think it is possible to send all the data from within the onclick function so i use that to decide if it gets sent from internal calls there and display thank you message if so, if not display error message.

should i B:

Disable the sending button until the fields contain valid data? Or use a second button to confirm data then allow a submit button to be pressed?

Hello

Wondering something, I created a form and have I have it submit when the user clicks the Submit button.

Is it okay if I redirect to Google like I did here.

I can't do it in the form action, because I have the mailto link. Simply put, what I did in the if statement, is that okay, there would be no problem with it?

I am looking for some help similar to this old post: http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?t=19588

I want my radio buttons to become submit buttons as well. So when a user clicks on a radio button it submits the action and refreshes the page accordingly. As of now using only using onclick="this.form.submit()" the page only refreshes with no change.

Here is a copy of the entire form. It is a custom shipping options form (I did not create it). Any help would be appreciated.

Code:

I'm trying to get a submit button to open a thank you page I created (i.e. thankyou.html) only after the user has filled out a series of questions for a form. If they don't fill out the required information, a pop up box informs them to fill out the section (this I have accomplished). I cannot get the submit button to not work if the fields are left un-answered. Can you guys help?

Thanks for you help.

Hi everyone,

Let's say i have a form that looks like this:

<form name="myForm" action="myPage" onsubmit="return validateForm();">

<input type="text" name="myInput" size="10">
<input type="submit" name="add" value="Add this">
<input type="submit" name="cancel" value="Cancel this">

</form>

What i'm trying to do is for the validateForm() function to either redirect the page if "Cancel this" is clicked, or continue processing if "Add this" was clicked. So the validateForm() would work something like this:

function validateForm()
{
if (cancel button is clicked){
location.href=go some place
}
else{
do some other stuff
}
}

So, how can dynamically detect which submit button was clicked, before submitting the form? (that would fill in the "cancel button is clicked")
I tried with document.myForm.cancel.selected and other variations but it always returns undefined.

Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Is it possible for JavaSscript to toggle a submit button?

I will be using it in this code:
Code:

<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">
	if (document.forms["form"]["quantitys"].value > '.$row['quantity'].') {
		alert ("The quantity you wanted for product '.$row['id'].' is no longer available and will be changed to the highest available quantity.");
		document.forms["form"]["quantity"].value = '.$row['quantity'].';
		// JAVASCRIPT TOGGLE SUBMIT
	}
</SCRIPT>

The submit button:
<INPUT name="submit" type="submit" value="UPDATE QUANTITY">

I am a novice at web-designing. And I have been stuck at a problem for one week. I am trying to create a website which consists of a form which the user is required to fill out, and based on the information supplied by the user the submit button generates different pages. Now, I have a couple of drop down lists, and each drop down list has 5-6 fields. Right now, the submit button links to only one page irrespective of the information in the form. I want my submit button to generate a different result depending upon the combinational changes the different drop down list undergoes. How can I go about it? Any kind of help is highly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello..

I have seen this somewhere, but I don't know how to make it - possibly with a JavaScript integrated with the HTML code to create a submit button.

What I want is once the page is loaded, I want the submit button to count down from 5 to 0, and when it's reached 0, the button is clickable - but before that, nothing happens when you click it obviously.

How can I obtain this?
Whether if it's created in JavaScript or jQuery doesn't matter, I use both...

Thanks
