Contact Form Backend needed, Frontend given - javascript

I used to host a website at carrd.co with the pro plus plan. I chose the expensive plan because of the possibility to download the website and host it on an own server.
What I did not know, was that this did not include server-side code.
My problem is, that I have the front end code, but every PHP code I try fails to interact with this code. Since I can only develop with Java, I cannot get to a solution by myself.
The issue is that I do not know what the next step is to make this code work on my server so that it successfully sends me an email when this form is submitted by a user. I do not have any backend code and do not know where to start.
1) where can i put a PHP file to answer to this request? How do i have to name it?
2) how can i parse the arguments?
3) how do i have to format the answer from the php script to the ajax script?
Could you guys please help here? Thanks a lot!!!
(i might even be able to solve this with some good hints if you cannot be bothered to provide a full solution! I'm thankful for any advice!)
The frontend code:
Form:
<form id="form02" method="post">
<div class="inner">
<div class="field"><input type="text" name="name" id="name" placeholder="Name"
maxlength="128"/></div>
<div class="field"><input type="email" name="email" id="email"
placeholder="Email" maxlength="128"/></div>
<div class="field"><input type="text" name="fname" id="-fname" placeholder="Fname"
maxlength="128"/></div>
<div class="field"><textarea name="message" id="message" placeholder="Message"
maxlength="16384"></textarea></div>
<div class="actions">
<button type="submit">Send Message</button>

</div>

An html form normally uses an action parameter to specify a url for the script to submit the form data to. However it looks like your javascript code is hard-coded to create an ajax post back to a url at /post/contact, which may explain why the examples you have tried do not work.
Yes, you do need a script of some kind on your server to process the response, but it doesn't have to be PHP - whatever your hosting provider supports, and whatever is capable of handling what you want to do with the data.

Code working in Chrome and Edge but not in IE - setimeout?

I have the following downloadZip.html. The download works in Chrome and Edge, but not in IE. This file gets called as below from jspf page. When I click "Download listed documents" it call popupDownloadWindow(), which will open downloadZip.html in plainview. This html when loaded calls enableLink() and the flow goes. As the view is plainview, only first if block of enableLink() is executed (if(callerview == "plainview")). Not sure if this is happening because of setTimeout(). Please help me here. Let me know for any information.
function checkReturn(){
//alert('checkReturn - sessionsNotOk global var = '+sessionsNotOk);
if (sessionsNotOk != "DEF") {
var docbases = sessionsNotOk.split(",");

Stop form from redirecting?

This question has been asked and answered quite a few different times. I've searched around SO and couldn't find a solution that worked. I tried e.preventdefault() and return false. Neither worked. Then I saw that I need to go back to AJAX and can't use a promise and I refuse to do so and I refuse to think that there isn't a way to do it with promises.
Anyway,
Code:
var submitDataForm = function () {
console.log("button called");
var email = document.getElementById('email');
var first = document.getElementById('first-name');
var last = document.getElementById('last-name');
var web = document.getElementById('domain');
var city = document.getElementById('city');
var obj = document.getElementById('obj');
var describe = document.getElementById('describe');
var brandpower = document.getElementById('brandpower');
if (email.checkValidity() && first.checkValidity() && web.checkValidity() && city.checkValidity() && obj.checkValidity()) {
var emailV = email.value;
var firstV = first.value;
var webV = (web.value == undefined) ? 'null' : web.value;
var cityV = city.value;
var objV = obj.options[obj.selectedIndex].value;
var describeV = (describe && describe.options && describe.selectedIndex) ? describe.options[describe.selectedIndex].value : describe.value;
var brandpowerV = (brandpower && brandpower.options && brandpower.selectedIndex) ? brandpower.options[brandpower.selectedIndex].value : brandpower.value;
var radio = jQuery('input[name="dealer"]:checked').val();
jQuery.post("/form-one/?" + "email=" + emailV + "&first=" + firstV +
cityV + "&domain=" + webV + "&obj=" + objV + "&describe=" + describeV + "&brandpower=" + brandpowerV +
"&radio=" + radio, function () {
console.log("data sent");
})
.done(function () {
console.log("data success");
})
.fail(function () {
console.log("data failed");
})
.always(function () {
console.log("data finished");
email.value, first.value, web.value, city.value, obj.value, describe.value, brandpower.value = "";
//window.location.href = "/";
});
} else {
$('#error').css('display', 'block').delay(5000).queue(function (next) {
jQuery('#error').fadeOut('slow').css('display', 'none');
});
}
}
<button id="next" class="green-button" onClick="submitDataForm()">Next</button>
Again, I'm trying to have the form do nothing but submit data (will add custom events later) without refresh or reload.
Thank you!
event.preventDefault does indeed work. As nnnnnn pointed out, you dont show where you tried it but I suspect that you were not using it correctly, more than likely, you were not passing the event into the handler and e or event (whatever you named it) was actually undefined. Here is an example of one way to use it properly:
$('.ajax-submit').click(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
console.log("button called");
//... all your other code here
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form action="">
<button id="next" class="green-button ajax-submit" > Next</button>
</form>

Jquery Ajax On-Focusout On-Submit - Requires 2 Clicks

Hello I have a jquery and ajax validation form, when you fill the values (wrong values) x#x.com and 1111111 in password it will give ajax validation notice (which is fine) but after that if you put in the values (correct values) example#example.com and 12345678 it requires two clicks to submit. Meaning if you put wrong values first and then put correct values then it will require two clicks to submit. following is the code. I have set the code below so you can copy and paste the code into files (filenames given before) and you will have a working model to work with. I have hardcoded the php validate file so you guys can copy and paste the code and see how it works.

Tried Solutions
1. Putting a delay on the submit button
2. On Keyup instead of on Focusout (this works but not what is required)
3. Give delay to keyup (could not get it to work with ajax - but its closer to what I require, but not exactly what I require
4. Triggering the click on submit on return true of ajax (also did not work)
I need some javascript expert to look into it and give me solution.
Okay, I don't want to be rude, but all that code is a bit of a disaster. You're calling the on click function 3 different times, you're making ajax calls to the server on every form change and on submit. Then you're actually making two separate ajax calls for the actual submit function.
The code below is a lot more compact, only ever makes one ajax call and should work. I'll explain a bit before each code block
Your form add an id so that jQuery can use serialize in the ajax call
<form method="post" id="loginform" name="loginform" action="success.php">
<input type="email" class="homepage" name="user_email2" id="user_email2" placeholder="Email" maxlength="50" required />
<div class ="errormsg" id ="errormsg6"></div>
<input type="password" class="homepage" name="user_password2" id="user_password2" placeholder="Password" maxlength="20" required />
<div class ="errormsg" id ="errormsg7"></div>
<input type="submit" name="login" id="login" value="Submit">
<div class ="errormsglast" id ="errormsg8"></div>
</form>
validatelogin.php - This should only be one call to the server, do both functions in one, return the data as json rather than echoing single values, that way you get an object back that you can parse in your jQuery code.
<?php
if (session_status() == PHP_SESSION_NONE) {
session_start();
}
if(isset($_POST['user_email2'], $_POST['user_password2'] )) {
$user_password2 = $_POST['user_password2'];
$user_email2 = strtolower($_POST['user_email2']);
if($user_email2 != "example#example.com") {
$data['email_check'] = 'false';
} else {
$data['email_check'] = 'true';
}
$data = array;
if($user_email2!="example#example.com" && $user_password2!="12345678") {
$data['password_check'] = 'false';
} else {
$data['password_check'] = 'true';
}
}
print(json_encode($data));
jQuery - I am not really sure why you're calling all these functions on blur and the multiple on clicks. Just do it in the one on click, call validate email, if that passes you move on to validate password and if that passes it makes the ajax call to actually check the details against the server.
Also avoid variable names like item5, errormsg6, to another developer that means nothing, and it won't to you in 6 months either. And don't tell people which element was wrong, ie "Incorrect password" just for security, just tell them their login details are wrong.
$(document).ready(function() {
/* ----------------- Login Validations Global Variables ----------------- */
var user_email2 = "";
var user_emailajax2 = "";
var user_password2 = "";
var user_passwordajax2 = "";
var emailformat = new RegExp(/^[+a-zA-Z0-9._-]+#[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$/i);
/* ----------------- Define Validate Email */
var validate_email_login = function() {
var email = $("#user_email2").val().toLowerCase();
var errors = [];
if (email.length < 6 || email.length > 50) {
errors.push("Email : 6 - 50 Characters<br>");
}
if (!emailformat.test(email)) {
errors.push("Wrong Email Format");
}
if( errors.length > 0 ) {
$("#errormsg6").html(errors);
return false;
}
$("#errormsg6").html();
validate_password_login();
}
/* ----------------- Define Validate Password */
var validate_password_login = function() {
var item6 = $("#user_password2").val();
if (item6.length < 8 || item6.length > 20) {
$("#errormsg7").html("Password : 8-20 Characters");
return false;
}
$("#errormsg7").html("");
submitForm();
}
var submitForm = function() {
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: 'validatelogin.php',
dataType: "json",
data: $("#loginform").serialize(),
success: function(msg) {
if(msg.email_check == 'true' && msg.password_check == 'true') {
//do whatever it is you want to do on correct login here
} else {
$("#errormsg6").html("Your login details are incorrect, please check and try again");
}
}
});
}
/* ----------------- Stop on Submit */
$("#login").on('click', function() {
errors = [];
if(validate_email_login() == true) {
alert("hi");
}
});
});

How to return false from a main function after an ajax callback?

I perform an edit to ensure against duplicate emails by making an ajax call and supplying a callback. If a duplicate exists, I want to return false from submit event. Is there an elegant way to achieve this without setting async=false? What I tried (see emailCallback) is not working.
submit event
EDIT (included the rest of the submit handler).
$("#form-accounts").on("submit", function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
if (!$(this).get(0).checkValidity()) return false;
if (!customValidation(true, false)) return;
checkDupEmail(emailCallback);
function emailCallback(result) {
if (result) return (function () { return false } ());
}
if ($("#submit").text() == "Create Account") {
var formData = $("#form-accounts").serialize().replace("''", "'");
ajax('post', 'php/accounts.php', formData + "&action=create-account", createSuccess);
function createSuccess(result) {
if (isNaN(result)) {
showMessage(0, result);
return;
}
localStorage.setItem("account-id", result);
debugger
setUsertype($("input[name=user-type]:checked").val());
showMessage(1, "Account Created");
};
return
}
var rString = randomString(32, '0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ');
function randomString(length, chars) {
var result = '';
for (var i = length; i > 0; --i) result += chars[Math.floor(Math.random() * chars.length)];
return result;
};
var anRandom = randomString(14, rString);
$("#code").val(anRandom);
console.log("v-code=" + anRandom);
$("#submit").css({ 'display': 'none' });
$("#verify").css({ 'display': 'block' });
var subject = "Writer's Tryst Verification Code"
$("#subject").val(subject);
var msg = "This mail is intended for the person who requested verification of email ownership at Writers-Tryst (" + getWriterTrystURL() + ").\n\n" + "Double click on the code below and then copy it. Return to our website and and paste the code.\n\nYour verification code: \n\n" + anRandom;
$("#msg").val(msg);
var formData = $("#form-accounts").serialize().replace("''", "'");
ajax('post', 'php/sendmail.php', formData, successMail, "create-account error: ");
function successMail(result) {
$("#ver-email-msg").val("An email has been sent to you. Double-click the verification code then copy and paste it below.").css({ 'display': 'block' });
}
});
function checkDupEmail(callback) {
var data = {};
data.action = "validate-email";
data.email = $("#email").val();
ajax('post', 'php/accounts.php', data, emailSuccess);
function emailSuccess(result) {
if (parseInt(result) > 0) {
showMessage(0, "The email address is in use. Please supply another or login instead of creating a new account.")
callback(true);
} else callback(false);
}
}
Instead of passing a callback, why don't you just submit the form when your Ajax call completes successfully?
$("#form-accounts").on("submit", function (e) {
// Always cancel the submit initially so the form is not submitted until after the Ajax call is complete
e.preventDefault();
...
checkDupEmail(this);
...
});
function checkDupEmail(form) {
var data = {};
data.action = "validate-email";
data.email = $("#email").val();
ajax('post', 'php/accounts.php', data, function(result) {
if (parseInt(result) > 0) {
showMessage(0, "The email address is in use. Please supply another or login instead of creating a new account.")
} else {
form.submit();
}
}
}
A better approach than that would be to submit your form using Ajax. That would eliminate the need for two calls to the server.

Login using Json

I am trying to develop a login process using json.
My problem is that when I make many login attempts , parameters are not overriden but concatenated.
Below is the code I'm writing.
I do not see where the problem is.
Thank you in advance .
var loginReq = Titanium.Network.createHTTPClient();
loginReq.onload = function() {
var json = this.responseText;
Titanium.API.info("step 1 done");
var response = JSON.parse(json);
if (response.status == true) {
Titanium.App.Properties.setString("key", response.key);
alert("Success");
} else {
alert("Email or password wrong");
}
};
function doConnVerif() {
if ($.email.value != '' && $.password.value != '') {
loginReq.open("POST", "URL");
loginReq.send({
'email' : $.email.value ,
'password' : $.password.value
});
} else {
alert("Enter email and password");
}
}
By your question I can't grasp the full aspect of the problem, but definitely a good idea would be only allow one login attempt at a time.
Something like:
var pendingRequest = false;
// ...
if(!pendingRequest) {
loginReq.send({
'email' : $.email.value ,
'password' : $.password.value
});
pendingRequest = true
}
// ...
loginReq.onload = function() {
pendingRequest = false
// ...
