how to call an alert after an option is clicked

how to call an alert after an option is clicked - javascript

I am trying to make a username, ID and password linking form but i need to make sure that the program recognises that a username has been selected.
This is what I have done:
var usernameBox = document.getElementsByName("uop");
usernameBox.onclick = function(){
if (usernameBox.options[usernameBox.selectedIndex].value == false){
alert("Please choose your username");
}
}
This does not work for me and I am a beginner to javascript so I'm not very familiar with a lot of the concepts but that's what learning is for right.

You could add the onchange attribute in the HTML itself, which calls a function in the JavaScript.
Heres a example
<input type="text" onchange="inputOnChange()" id="input-username"/>
<script>
function inputOnChange() {
let usernameinput = document.getElementById("input-username");
let username = usernameinput.value;
// do whatever u want with the username now
console.log(username);
}
</script>

You could update a variable everytime the 'select' element is changed, then show the alert. You can use the username variable wherever you would like. Here is how you could do this...
var usernameBox = document.getElementById("uop");
let username = usernameBox.value;
usernameBox.onchange = (e) => {
username = e.target.value;
alert(username);
}

How to identify the checked radio button by using getElementsByName?

I have a form fontVortMetodo, which I declared as
var fM = document.forms["fontVortMetodo"];
The user has the choice to submit the form to one of three PHP pages. I let him make the choice first by radio buttons with the name select. Then he should press a button, which fires the result of the form elements to the selected page.
For this firing I used the function
function destinu() {
if (fM.elements("select")[0].checked) {
fM.action = "private_php/Zamenhofa.php";
} else if (fM.elements("select")[1].checked) {
fM.action = "private_php/intereuropeco.php";
} else if (fM.elements("select")[2].checked) {
tutm = true;
fM.action = "private_php/tutmondeco.php";
}
}
There was this error:
TypeError: fM.elements("select")[0].checked is not a function".
Maybe I should try
var destiny = getElementsByName("select")
and then proceed with if (destiny[0].checked) or if (destiny[0].checked == true).
I don’t know jQuery, which somebody advised me to use, and also for JavaScript I have no reference text. Where can I find a good tutorial for jQuery, although I prefer to do everything by using JavaScript pure?

Using pure JS
Use dataset attribute to store the action.
Use this selector [name="select"]:checked to get the checked radio button.
document.querySelector('button').addEventListener('click', function(e)  {
e.preventDefault();
var checked = document.querySelector('[name="select"]:checked');
var action = checked.dataset.action;
var form = document.querySelector('#fontVortMetodo');
form.setAttribute('action', action);
var tutm = checked.dataset.tutm !== undefined;
console.log("Action: " + action);
console.log('Is tutm: '+ tutm);
//$form.submit(); // This is if you need to to submit the form.
});
<form id='fontVortMetodo' name='fontVortMetodo'>
<input type='radio' name='select' data-action="private_php/Zamenhofa.php">
<input type='radio' name='select' data-action="private_php/intereuropeco.php">
<input type='radio' name='select' data-action="private_php/tutmondeco.php" data-tutm='true'>
<button>Submit</button>
</form>

Save text field to a variable using jQuery, showing undefined

I am trying to save the text field with the id #modelBox to a global variable so that it can be used later. However it seems no matter what I try the modelNumber is alerting 'undefined'. Any help is appreciated.
<input type = "textbox" value = "Enter Model Number" id="modelBox">
var modelBox="";
$('#modelBox').val('test');
var modelNumber = $('#modelBox').val();
alert(modelNumber);
var manufacturer = "unknown";
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#submit').click(function findManufacturer(){
var firstFour = modelNumber.substring(0,4);
if (firstFour.includes("B")){
manufacturer = "AU Optronics";
$('#answer').after("AU Optronics");
}else{
$('#answer').after("No Manufacturer found");
}
});
});

this needs to be INSIDE your click handler so that you grab the value when you click. The way you have it, the val gets set on page load -- which is likely undefined at that point.
var modelNumber = $('#modelBox').val();
$('#submit').click(function findManufacturer(){
var modelNumber = $('#modelBox').val();
var firstFour = modelNumber.substring(0,4);
if (firstFour.includes("B")){
manufacturer = "AU Optronics";
$('#answer').after("AU Optronics");
}else{
$('#answer').after("No Manufacturer found");
}
});
});
EDIT: You can also place it outside of the click handler, so long as it is inside the docready, and the field never changes between page load and clicking the submit button.

I just tried your code in below snippet, it alerts 'test'. Found no issue!
var modelBox = "";
$('#modelBox').val('test');
var modelNumber = $('#modelBox').val();
alert(modelNumber);
var manufacturer = "unknown";
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#submit').click(function findManufacturer() {
var firstFour = modelNumber.substring(0, 4);
if (firstFour.includes("B")) {
manufacturer = "AU Optronics";
$('#answer').after("AU Optronics");
} else {
$('#answer').after("No Manufacturer found");
}
});
});

php and javascript form validation issue

I have created a form using bootstrap and am using javascript for form validation and then a php script to grab the post data and display it
the basic structure is the following and I have made this as minimal as I could to address this specific issue. The issue I am having is that the script to check for the form validation works perfectly in the <script> tags at the end of the body, but instead of preventing the page from being submitted as it should it still processes to the next page with the form's contents that are being made through the php post action when the form is indeed not filled out correctly.
Why is this? Should the form validation still not stop the page from moving on to the post data since the validation is returning false if the form has not been submitted correctly. All the form validation alerts pop up correctly and I;m getting no console errors after checking, or do I need to perform an additional check to only process the post data if the form is valid?
<html>
other tags.....
<body>
<form name = "OrderForm" action = "process_order.php" onsubmit = "orderbutton" method = "post">
a bunch of content, divs, checkboxes, etc
</form>
</body>
<script>
function CheckForm() {
var Name = document.getElementById("Name");
var fries = document.forms.OrderForm.FryRadio;
var fryyes = fries[0].checked
var fryno = fries[1].checked
var bool = true;
if ((Name.value == "" || Name.value == "Name") || (!(document.getElementById("SandwichRadio").checked || document.getElementById("WrapRadio").checked))) {
bool = false;
}
else if (!(fryyes || fryno)) {
bool = false;
}
if (!(bool)) {
alert("Please fill out all of the required fields.");
return false;
}
else {
alert("Your order is being submitted");
console.log("Submitted")
}
};
</script>
</html>

You should call function on submit , I dont know what are you doing with current onsubmit='...'
So use following, call function when you submit the form.
<form name = "OrderForm" action = "process_order.php" onsubmit = "return CheckForm()" method = "post">
a bunch of content, divs, checkboxes, etc
</form>
For demo : Check Fiddle

first of all what you can do is:
you do not need the !fryes in another if statement:
you can do it also in the first if:
if ((Name.value == "" || Name.value == "Name") || (!(document.getElementById("SandwichRadio").checked || document.getElementById("WrapRadio").checked)) || ( (!(fryyes || fryno))) {
bool = false;
}
also what you can do is if bool is false, disable your submit button if there is any?
you can also do an onchange on the texboxes, that way you can validate each text box or checkbox one by one. and have the bool true and false?
I did something like this on jquery long time ago, for validation, where I checked each texbox or dropdown against database and then validate, aswell..
The code is below
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
var works=true;

Getting the ID of a radio button using JavaScript

Is there a way to get the ID of a radio button using JavaScript?
So far I have:
HTML
<input type="radio" name="fullorfirst" id="fullname" />
JavaScript
var checkID = document.getElementById(fullname);
console.log(checkID);
It outputs as null.
Essentially what I want to do is:
document.getElementById(fullname).checked = true;
...in order to change the radio button fullname to be checked on page load.

you should put fullname between quotes, since it's a string:
document.getElementById("fullname");

function checkValue() // if you pass the form, checkValue(form)
{
var form = document.getElementById('fullname'); // if you passed the form, you wouldn't need this line.
for(var i = 0; i < form.buztype.length; i++)
{
if(form.buztype[i].checked)
{
var selectedValue = form.buztype[i].value;
}
}
alert(selectedValue);
return false;
}
Hope this helps.

JavaScript Solution:
document.getElementById("fullname").checked = true;
Jquery Solution:
$("#fullname").prop("checked", true);

JS validation issue

My validation function looks like that.
var fname = $("#fname").val();
var lname = $("#lname").val();
function validate() {
var isValid = true;
if (!fname) {
$("#fname").attr('class', 'invalid');
isValid=false;
}
if (!lname) {
$("#lname").attr('class', 'invalid');
isValid=false;
}
It simply changes the class of unfilled input box.
I know that i can write else for every if and change back to default (class="valid") if user fills some of inputs. But how can i create something universal for all inputs to change back to default class the input that user has filled after first validation error?

That was good Tural! HOWEVER, why the excess processing in your code? That will add unecessary stress. Since you, for what you "solved", will add the "valid" class to ALL the input type text or password, just add that to the actual input element in the straight code:
<input class='valid' ..... />
Now, back to your original validation: why not make it universal?:
function validate(formField) {
if !formField $('#'+formField).removeClass('valid').addClass('invalid');
}
Or something in that vein ...

You can either assume everything is valid and then try to disprove that or you can try to prove its validity. The below takes the first approach and sets all the classes to "valid" to be consistent with that.
function validate() {
// Get the current form input state.
var fname = $("#fname");
var lname = $("#lname");
// Assume everything valid until proven otherwise.
var isValid = true;
fname.attr('class', 'valid');
lname.attr('class', 'valid');
if (!fname.val()) {
fname.attr('class', 'invalid');
isValid=false;
}
if (!lname.val()) {
lname.attr('class', 'invalid');
isValid=false;
}
return isValid;
}

Ok. I found the way
$('input[type="text"],input[type="password"]').keypress(function () {
$(this).attr('class', 'valid');
});
