I am having some trouble creating a multi dimension json based on multiple html form inputs:
the html inputs:
<div class="form-group-attached m-b-10">
<div class="form-group form-group-default input-group required">
<div class="form-input-group">
<label for="title">title</label>
<input type="text" name="title" value="some title" class="form-control">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group-attached m-b-10">
<div class="form-group form-group-default input-group required">
<div class="tile-icon input-group-addon d-flex">
<i class="fa-2x fa-color far fa-image"></i> </div>
<div class="form-input-group">
<label for="image">Image URL</label>
<input type="text" name="image" value="some image url" class="form-control">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group form-group-default input-group required">
<div class="tile-icon input-group-addon d-flex">
<i class="fa-2x fa-color far fa-link"></i> </div>
<div class="form-input-group">
<label for="link">Link URL</label>
<input type="text" name="link" value="http://www.google.com" class="form-control">
</div>
</div>
</div>
Here is the javascript code:
var frmData = {};
$(':input').each(function(){
frmData[$(this).attr('name')] = $(this).val();
});
alert(JSON.stringify(frmData));
Here is the json what I am getting:
{"title":"some title","image":"some image url","link":"http://www.google.com"}
What I need instead is after 'title', I would like to create a data object and add everything else as an sub level of 'data' like so:
{"title":"some title","data":{"image":"some image url","link":"http://www.google.com"}}
any help is appreciated.
thank,
Here is the way I would solve it:
var inputToJson = function() {
var formData = {};
formData.data = {};
$('input').each(function( index ) {
if($( this ).attr('name')=="title") {
formData[$( this ).attr('name')] = $( this ).val();
}
else {
formData["data"][$(this).attr('name')] = $( this ).val();
}
});
return formData;
}
console.log(inputToJson());

It's important to note that the proper way to access data from a form is using .serialize() on the actual element but given the special requirement of augmenting parts of the form within a custom "data" object that approach would also require additional manipulation.

var arr = [];
var frmData = {};
var Title;
var Image;
var Link;
$(':input').each(function() {
if ($(this).attr('name') == 'image')
Image = $(this).val();
else if ($(this).attr('name') == 'link') {
Link = $(this).val();
frmData = {
"title": Title,
"Data": {
"Image": Image,
"Link": Link

arr.push(frmData)
} else
Title = $(this).val();
});
console.log(JSON.stringify(frmData));//json format
console.log(arr);//arr fomat

The code below gives the output that you want. Just go through that.
var frmData = {};
var frmDataImageArray = [];
var frmDataTitle;
var frmDataImage;
var frmDataLink;
$(':input').each(function(){
if($(this).attr('name')=='image')
frmDataImage=$(this).val();
else if($(this).attr('name')=='link')
{
//Here i assume that link is the last control in this form that's why i put this code here. So that title and image is fetched before entering into this statement
frmDataLink=$(this).val();
frmDataImageArray.push({"Image":frmDataImage,"Link":frmDataLink});
//frmData={"title":frmDataTitle,"Data":{"Image":frmDataImage,"Link":frmDataLink}};
}
else
frmDataTitle=$(this).val();
//frmData[$(this).attr('name')] = $(this).val();
});
frmData={"title":frmDataTitle,"Data":frmDataImageArray};
console.log(JSON.stringify(frmData));

Maybe the solution is already in one of the previous answers, but as I am sitting in a train with nothing else to do I put together the following minimal solution:
var jsn={data:{}};
$('input','form:first').each(function(i,o){
var na=$(o).attr('name');
(na=='title'?jsn:jsn.data)[na]=o.value;
});
This can go into the $(function( ... )} section or be triggered by some click event. I am currently treating all inputs within the first <form> element on the page. You can change that to suit your needs.

I want to auto populate a form consisting of different input types (select boxes and text areas) dynamically. I am able to get input boxes working just fine, here is an example:
function autofill(){
var data = [{visible_retail: "0", brand: "cool!", description: "hello there!"}];
console.log(data);
data.map(function(item) {
for (var key in item)
$('input[id=product-'+key+']').val(item[key]);
}).join();
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="product-form">
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="product-visible_retail" class="col-4 col-form-label">Visibility (Retail)</label>
<div class="col-8">
<select class="form-control" id="product-visible_retail" required>
<option value="1">Shown</option>
<option value="0">Hidden</option>
</select>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="product-brand" class="col-4 col-form-label">Brand</label>
<div class="col-8">
<input class="form-control" type="text" value="" id="product-brand" maxlength="50" required>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="product-description" class="col-4 col-form-label">Description</label>
<div class="col-8">
<textarea class="form-control" id="product-description" rows="4" cols="50" maxlength="65535" required></textarea>
</div>
</div>
</form>
<button onclick="autofill()">auto fill</button>
Edit: the form I posted is just an example. In reality I have hundreds of fields that need to be auto propagated. Hence defining them individually really isn't an optimal.
The issue is that a textarea control is NOT an input. And also, you should use .html() or .text() to set a value in it.
I did a little modification to your code:
function autofill(){
var data = [{visible_retail: "0", brand: "cool!", description: "hello there!"}];
console.log(data);
data.map(function(item) {
for (var key in item)
if(key == "description")
$('#product-' + key).text(item[key]);
else if(key == "visible_retail")
$('#product-' + key).val(item[key]);
else
$('input[id=product-'+key+']').val(item[key]);
}).join();
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

<option value="1">Shown</option>
<option value="0">Hidden</option>

</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="product-brand" class="col-4 col-form-label">Brand</label>
<div class="col-8">
<input class="form-control" type="text" value="" id="product-brand" maxlength="50" required>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="product-description" class="col-4 col-form-label">Description</label>
<div class="col-8">
<textarea class="form-control" id="product-description" rows="4" cols="50" maxlength="65535" required></textarea>
</div>
</div>
</form>
<button onclick="autofill()">auto fill</button>
You can do something like this with JQuery to add rows/columns dynamically. I saw your question in the comments. CSS class of your table row should be something like this. <tr class="item-row"></tr>
$("#addrow").click(function(){
$(".item-row:last").after('<tr class="item-row"><td class="item-name"><div class="delete-wpr"><textarea class="item_name">Item Name</textarea><a class="delete" href="javascript:;" title="Remove row">X</a></div></td><td class="description"><textarea class="description_val">Description</textarea></td><td><textarea class="cost">N0</textarea></td><td><textarea class="qty">0</textarea></td><td><span class="price">N0</span></td></tr>');
if ($(".delete").length > 0) $(".delete").show();
bind();
});
bind();
$(".delete").live('click',function(){
$(this).parents('.item-row').remove();
if ($(".delete").length < 2) $(".delete").hide();
});
we were way off. Here is the super simple solution...
function autofill(){
var data = [{visible_retail: "0", brand: "cool!", description: "hello there!"}];
console.log(data);
data.map(function(item) {
for (var key in item)
$('#product-'+key).val(item[key]);
}).join();
}

I wish to dynamically add the name attribute as 'pickup_city2' and 'pickup_address2' to select elements with ids, pickup_cityExtend and pickup_addressExtend.
$('#multiCheck').change(function() {
if (this.checked) {
var $pick = $('#cityPickExtend');
$clone = $pick.clone().removeClass('hide').removeAttr('id').insertAfter($pick);
var city = document.getElementById('pickup_cityExtend');
city.setAttribute('name', 'pickup_city2');
var address = document.getElementById('pickup_addressExtend');
address.setAttribute('name', 'pickup_address2');
}
if (!this.checked) {
$clone.remove();
}

Below is my jquery code.
$('#multiCheck').change(function() {
if (this.checked) {
var $pick = $('#cityPickExtend');
$clone = $pick.clone().removeClass('hide').removeAttr('id').insertAfter($pick);
var city = document.getElementById('pickup_cityExtend');
city.setAttribute('name', 'pickup_city2');
var address = document.getElementById('pickup_addressExtend');
address.setAttribute('name', 'pickup_address2');
}
if (!this.checked) {
$clone.remove();
}
})
Within the part that you clone, there are four elements that have an id attribute. As id values must be unique, the DOM API will always return the first match when you query for a certain id, such as in these lines:
var city = document.getElementById('pickup_cityExtend');
var address = document.getElementById('pickup_addressExtend');
The results do not match the elements in the part you added to the document.
In order to make it work, you need to replace the id values with something that is unique (by adding a 2 for instance).
As a side note: you are mixing jQuery syntax with native DOM methods to retrieve elements. It would be more consistent if you would not use document.getElementById, but the jQuery $('#...') equivalent.
Here is some adjusted code:
var $clone;
$('#multiCheck').change(function() {
if (this.checked) {
var $pick = $('#cityPickExtend');
$clone = $pick.clone().removeClass('hide').removeAttr('id');
// Add '2' to all ID values, and set name value to the same.
$clone.find('[id]').each(function () {
var id = $(this).attr('id') + '2';
$(this).attr('id', id).attr('name', id);
});
// Now that the id value are unique, it is OK to add the clone:
$clone.insertAfter($pick);
} else if ($clone) { // Check whether we actually have a clone
$clone.remove();
}
});
I'm submitting a form through JQuery by using the form.serialize method. But that same form has an array of checkboxes, which is dynamically genetrated by a PHP function
This is the form:

And this is the php function that generates the checkboxes:
function profileCheckBoxes(){
$queryListProfiles = "SELECT * FROM perfil";
$listProfiles = mysqli_query($GLOBALS['dbc'],$queryListProfiles);
$numProfiles = mysqli_num_rows($listProfiles);
if($numProfiles !=""){
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($listProfiles)){
?>
<label class="checkbox-inline">
<input type="checkbox" value="<?php echo $row['id']?>" name="profiles[]">
<?php echo $row['Nome']; ?>
</label>
<?php
}
}
}
How can I submit the form with form.serialize in Jquery and in the PHP side process the checkbox so I can extract the values from the checkbox array?
This jQuery documentation page explains how to use the serialize function:
http://api.jquery.com/serialize/
If you then pass the output to your php page using POST, in the PHP script the checked values will be stored in $_POST['profiles'] as an array. So to loop through the values of the checked boxes you could use:
foreach ($_POST['profiles'] as $profile) {
//process code here
}
jQuery's form.serialize only pass checksboxes that are checked.
if you want all your checkboxes to get passed to your server consider to generate also hidden inputs to store those values.
I would also change the checkboxes name to "profiles"
