JavaScript - Does Button Have To Be Type 'submit' ?
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? Similar TutorialsBelow is a script I found at http://bytes.com/topic/javascript/an...cookie-problem The idea is a like button, like on fb, in a form which updates a db field I can use to display the number of likes, and my goal is to disable the like button for the rest of the session, or a day, or whatever. This script disables it onclick, the problem is I can't figure out how to get it to submit the form as well. I have found it does submit if the input type is 'submit', but then it doesn't call the disable function. I tried writing another function to submit the form but no go. Code: <html>
<head>
<title>Vote Button</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function checkForVote()
{
// If there is a cookie...
if(document.cookie != "")
{
if(getCookie("voted") == 1)
{
// Disable the button again if user already voted.
disableButton();
}
}
}
function disableButton()
{
var submitvote = document.getElementById("submitvote");
submitvote.disabled = true;
submitvote.value = "You Already Voted.";
}
function setCookie(name, value, days)
{
if(days)
{
var date = new Date();
date.setTime(date.getTime() + (days * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000));
var expires = "; expires = " + date.toGMTString();
}
else
{
var expires = "";
}
document.cookie = name + "=" + value + expires + "; path=/";
// Disable the button as soon as the user clicks it.
disableButton();
}
function getCookie(name)
{
var nameEQ = name + "=";
var ca = document.cookie.split(';');
for(var i=0; i < ca.length; i++)
{
var c = ca[i];
while (c.charAt(0)==' ')
{
c = c.substring(1,c.length);
}
if (c.indexOf(nameEQ) == 0)
{
return c.substring(nameEQ.length,c.length);
}
}
return null;
}
</script>

I have created some online software which uses form data to submit to another page. The problem is that I have other submit buttons in the same form which submit to different pages (depending on which button is pressed). The first submit button works fine but all the others only work once. Code: <input class="cssbutton" type='submit' value='Button1' onclick="wbform.action='page1.php'; target='mainFrame'; return true;"> <input class="cssbutton" type='submit' value='Button2' onclick="wbform.action='page2.php'; target='_blank'; return true;"> <input class="cssbutton" type='submit' value='Button3' onclick="wbform.action='page3.php'; target='topFrame'; return true;"> <input class="cssbutton" type='submit' value='Button4' onclick="wbform.action='page4.php'; target='topFrame'; return true;"> <input class="cssbutton" type='submit' value='Button5' onclick="wbform.action='page5.php'; target='_blank'; return true;"> <input class="cssbutton" type='submit' value='Button6' onclick="wbform.action='page6.php'; target='_blank'; return true;"> Any ideas my friends? Hate to ask this as I know it's an easy one but surprisingly Google turns up no clear/simple answers! I'm modifying some old code and am not JS programmer (I'm a PHP programmer) and this is driving me nuts. The existing code makes sure that when the form is submitted that there isn't a missing value. There's also some hidden input values. The JS starts out function checkform(orderform) and the form tag includes onsubmit="return checkform(this);"> I can add an alert to the form to see varius input values, such as a hidden value for the input name 'description' I can use: alert (orderform.description.value) Eazy peazy. However the form has two different input type=image buttons now and I need to do some branching in the JS depending on which image button they press. I recall IE had an issue where it only sends the x and y coordinates So I figure an easy to determine which image button was pressed is just check to see if the x or y value for each button is non-zero. But I can't for the life of me figure out how to access the value. Example: alert (orderform.button1.x.value) doesn't work. Can someone refresh my memory or suggest an entirely different method for detecting which image button was used to submit a form? THanks in advance! 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 I am restarting a thread because as a result of acting on all of the suggestions I have received the nature of the issue has changed. I am trying to create a button and add it to the DOM under IE7. The code works fine under Firefox: Code: var editButton = document.createElement("button");
editButton.name = "editCitation" + rowNum;
try {
editButton.type = 'button';
} catch(e) { // IE7 throws this exception
alert("citTable.js: gotAddCit: unable to set type for <button name='editCitation" + rowNum + "' type=" + editButton.type);
}
editButton.onclick = editCitation;
editButton.appendChild(document.createTextNode('Edit Citation'));
td1.appendChild(editButton);
I am creating a <button> rather than an <input type=button> because a <button> permits HTML in the button label. Most of my buttons support Alt keyboard shortcuts, so I want to underline the appropriate letter in the label. According to the HTML 4.01 specification, which is as close to a standard as IE7 supports, a <button> can be one of three types: submit, reset, or button, and the default is submit. Since I wish to create a <button type=button> I therefore, at least theoretically, need to be able to set the value of the type attribute. However IE7 throws an exception at that point, although, interestingly, when I interrogate the value of editButton.type in the catch it is set to button. So how do I reliably set the type of a button under IE7? I am creating a new <button> this way: newBox = document.createElement("button"); newBox.setAttribute("class","custom"); newBox.innerHTML = "<span><span>" + element[j].getAttribute("value") + "</span></span>"; newBox.onmouseover = function() { this.setAttribute("class","custom customHover"); return false; } newBox.onmouseout = function() { this.setAttribute("class","custom"); return false; } newBox.onmousedown = function() { this.setAttribute("class","custom customClick"); return false; } newBox.onmouseup = function() { this.setAttribute("class","custom"); return false; } element[j].parentNode.insertBefore( newBox, element[j].nextSibling ); But I need to change the type of the button to "button". Every time I try to change the type to either "button" or "submit" my browser just freezes. but If I change the button type to reset it works fine. Is there another way to change the type other than button.type = "" and button.setAttribute("type","")? 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"?
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: <!-- Custom shipping form -->

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?

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 ;

Simply put, what I did in the if statement, is that okay, there would be no problem with it? Is there a way so that I can move the submit button outside of the form tags? and if this is possible, can you make it with multiple text boxes, each with their corresponding submit button? heres the coding Code: <html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function gotoURL() {
var newURL = document.url2go.go.value
document.location.href=newURL
}
//-->

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!

Basically I am trying to create a Cascade Dropdown with a submit button, that once clicked, takes them to a URL depending on the choices they made in the cascade dropdown. I have the cascade dropdown working properly but do not know how to create a submit button that says, "If Cookeville = Cosmetology; then go to this URL." Any ideas or suggestions? I will need to create this type of conditional statement for each choice. My code so far is below. Thank you again in advanced. Code: <form id="locations">
<label for="categories">categories: </label>
<select name="categories" id="categories">
<option value="1">Cookeville, TN</option>
<option value="2">Lebanon, TN</option>
<option value="2">Dalton Beauty School</option>
<option value="2">Daphnie</option>
</select>
<label for="items">items: </label>
<select name="items" id="items" type="submit">
<option class="2" value="0">Cosmetology</option>
<option class="2" value="1">Cosmetology Instructor</option>
<option class="2" value="2">Instructor Trainee</option>
<option class="1" value="3">Cosmetology</option>
<option class="1" value="4">Cosmetology Instructor</option>
<option class="1" value="5">Esthetician</option>
<option class="1" value="6">Instructor Trainee</option>
<option class="1" value="7">Nail Technology</option>
</select></form>
<script type="text/javascript">
//Applies cascading behavior for the specified dropdowns
function applyCascadingDropdown(sourceId, targetId) {
var source = document.getElementById(sourceId);
var target = document.getElementById(targetId);
if (source && target) {
source.onchange = function() {
displayOptionItemsByClass(target, source.value);
}
displayOptionItemsByClass(target, source.value);
}
}
//Displays a subset of a dropdown's options
function displayOptionItemsByClass(selectElement, className) {
if (!selectElement.backup) {
selectElement.backup = selectElement.cloneNode(true);
}
var options = selectElement.getElementsByTagName("option");
for(var i=0, length=options.length; i<length; i++) {
selectElement.removeChild(options[0]);
}
var options = selectElement.backup.getElementsByTagName("option");
for(var i=0, length=options.length; i<length; i++) {

selectElement.appendChild(options[i].cloneNode(true));
}
}
//Binds dropdowns
function applyCascadingDropdowns() {
applyCascadingDropdown("categories", "items");
//We could even bind items to another dropdown
//applyCascadingDropdown("items", "foo");
}
//execute when the page is ready

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 All, I have the following code: Code: <input type="button" name="button" value="Submit" onclick="javascript:get(this.myform);"> How can I change this to make this button disabled after the onclick? Thanks in advance. |
