I trying to get the value of an input type="text" and with it, check if it really exists at my database and, if true, append it with an input type="hidden" value="value-of-last-input", but my code isn't working.
Here:
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="codigo" name="codigo" onblur="RetirarProduto(this)" />
and JS:
function RetirarProduto(campo) {
var codigo = campo.value;
alert(codigo);
});
I used alert to check the value, but it is not working.
Your function has one extra parenthesis at the end. Change your JavaScript to:
function RetirarProduto(campo) {
var codigo = campo.value;
alert(codigo);
}
And this should work. Here is a working JSFiddle. Let me know if I can help any further :)
Try this to get the value in the input form field. Then you can pass the value to your function and do whatever you need with it. Put this inside your input element.
onblur="var c = this.value; alert(c);"

I have a textfield:
Voornaam: <h3 class="title1">Kevin</h3>
<input type="text" id="myTextField1" />
<input type="submit" id="byBtn" value="Change" onclick="change1()"/><br/>
I can set a value of this using this function:
function change1(){
var myNewTitle = document.getElementById('myTextField1').value;
if( myNewTitle.length==0 ){
alert('Write Some real Text please.');
return;
}
var titles = document.getElementsByClassName('title1');
Array.prototype.forEach.call(titles,title => {
title.innerHTML = myNewTitle;
});
}
Now in my other page, I want to use the value. I know I can for example pass a value from one page to another like this:
<a href='convert.php?var=data'>converteren.</a>
And then for example show it by doing this in the other page:
echo $_GET['var'];
But I cant really seem to figure out how to use the value which I've set using my textfield.
So my goal for now is to display the value I've set using my textfield in the other page using the method I just described.
Basically all I want to happen is for my textfield to change the value inside here aswell:
<a href='convert.php?var=data'>converteren.</a>
So where data is the value, I want it to become what I've put in the textfield.
Could anybody provide me with an example?
I've altered a bit your javascript code to make the link as you want.
To explain the answer, i've added document.getElementById("myLink").href="convert.php?var=" + myNewTitle ; which updates your a href while your function runs and is not empty.
function change1(){
var myNewTitle = document.getElementById('myTextField1').value;
if( myNewTitle.length==0 ){
alert('Write Some real Text please.');
return;
}
document.getElementById("myLink").href="convert.php?var=" + myNewTitle ;
var titles = document.getElementsByClassName('title1');
Array.prototype.forEach.call(titles,title => {
title.innerHTML = myNewTitle;
});
}
<a id="myLink" href='#'>converteren.</a>
Wrap your inputs inside a form element.
In the action attribute, specify the destination url.
In the method attribute, choose between GET and POST.
For example:
<form method="GET" action="convert.php">
<input type="text" id="myTextField1" />
<input type="submit" id="byBtn" value="Change" onclick="change1()"/>
</form>
Clicking the submit button will call "convert.php?myTextField1={value}".
i would like to get the value of an <input type="text"> that was created dynamically inside a modal and put it into variable "newcomment".
This is how i make the input:
var newcomment;
var p = $("<p>");
p.append("Some text");
p.append("</p>");
p.append("<input type='text'id='comment_text' value='Comment'"+"onblur=newcomment=$('#comment_text').val()"+" onfocus=if(this.value==this.defaultValue)this.value=''>"+"</input>");
$("div.modal-body").append(p);
The problem is when i write something like "ok" inside the textbox in the modal, and after i focusout from the textbox: newcomment seems not update to "ok" and still have the default "Comment" value.
1st: You need to use newcomment=this.value instead of newcomment=$('#comment_text').val()
2nd: No need to add + signs in your input html code while you not trying to concatenate string by putting variables to it
var newcomment;
var p = $("<p>");
p.append("Some text");
p.append("</p>");
p.append("<input type='text' id='comment_text' value='Comment' onblur='newcomment=this.value; alert(newcomment);' onfocus=if(this.value==this.defaultValue)this.value='' />");
$("body").append(p);
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
Not really the answer here, but might help you get at the root of the problem.
JS:
var newComment, defaultValue;
function doOnBlur(){
newComment = $('#comment_text').val()
}
function doOnFocus(){
if($('#comment_text').val() == defaultValue){
$('#comment_text').val('')
}
}
HTML:
<input type='text' id='comment_text' placeholder='Comment' onblur='doOnBlur()' onfocus='doOnFocus()' />
<!-- inputs dont have a close tag, also should use placeholder for temporary text -->
from here, you can set breakpoints in the debugger and see where your code is going wrong. You can also modify the functions much more easily rather than writing the executing code in the HTML
Please note that i am a beginner in javascript. I've googled all the possible terms for my question but no luck. I wanted to know if there exists a javascript function that can be used to check if a field has been populated with data using another javascript function. No libraries please since i want to know the basics of javascript programming.
Edit:
I just wanted to clarify that scenario that i am into.
I have 3 input fields. These fields have their value assigned automatically by another javascript function. What i wanted to do is when this fields have their respected values i wanted to create a new input field that will calculate the sum of the value of the 3 fields.
As You are new Please try this whole code of HTML with Javascript code too.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script>
function copyText()
{
var TextValue = document.getElementById("field1").value
if(TextValue !=''){
alert(TextValue);
}
alert();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="text" id="field1" value="Hello World!"><br>
<button onclick="copyText()">Copy Text</button>
</body>
</html>
Hope this works.
Hope this helps you
//Html Code
<input type="text" value="sdsd" onChange="checkValue(this.value)">
//Java Script Code
function checkValue(value){
if((value).trim()!==""){
alert('return true');
}
else{
alert('return false');
}
}
//HTML line:
<input type="text" id="txtAddress" />
//JS code:
function setValue() {
//first we set value in text field:
document.getElementById('txtAddress').value = 'new value';
TestFunction();
}
function TestFunction() {
//second we will get value from this filed and check wether it contains data or not:
var address = document.getElementById('txtAddress').value;
if (address != "") {
alert("Yes, field contains address");
}
else {
alert("Empty field, there is no address");
}
}
I'm not sure what are you trying to achieve.
If you want to check if the input to the field was made with Javascript : there's no way to make that UNLESS your Javascript input function stores such information in some place (for example, add specific class to the modified object). Then you can proceed with following:
If you want to check if there's any value in the field then you can use onchange (triggers on change, you can pass the object to the function and get every property attached to it - value, class etc.).
example:
function changeValue( object )
{
object.value = "new value";
object.classList.add("modified");
}
function isChanged( object )
{
if( object.classList.contains("modified") )
alert("I'm modified by JS!");
}
<input type="text" id="first" onchange="isChanged(this)">
It has been some time since I was writing JS, but this should work.
Edit: now I remember onchange triggers only, if element is edited by user, thus rendering onchange detection worthless. Well, you could use set interval with the following function:
function getModified() {
// somehow process with
// document.getElementsByClassName("modified");
}
setInterval( getModified(), 3000 ); // get JS modified elements every 3s
lets say this is your html field (text input for instance):
<input type="text" id="txtName" />
in order to get it's value with javascript, use document.getElementById('txtName').value - for example:
function alert_value() {
var value = document.getElementById('txtName').value;
alert(value);
}
hope that helps.
EDIT:
if this text field is added dynamically, i'd suggest including jQuery and set the following script:
$(function(){
$(document).on('keyup', '#txtName', function(){ alert($(this).val()) });
});
my requirement is to save the entire "html" inside a div, but when i load an "html" with text fields to a div and then editing the value of the text box, the newly set value doesn't reflect in the core "html". I tried to inspect the value with fire bug and it remains the same or no value at all.With "jquery" i tried to set attribute but no attribute name value is created. how can i set the value of text fields and then get that "html" with the newly set value.
here is my html
<div class="sub_input_box">
<input type="text" / class="boreder_line">
<input type="text" id="txt" value=""/>
<input type="hidden" id="hid" />
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
and the jquery i used to set attribute
$("#txt").attr("value", "some value");
Chances are you're calling your jQuery code before the HTML input part. You can either place the jQuery stuff below it, or if you don't want to, you can do something like this:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#txt").attr("value", "some value");
});
That will only run when the page is fully loaded.
However, it's unclear if you're using AJAX to load those inputs into your DOM. If so, you need to call $("#txt").attr("value", "some value"); in the onSuccess callback function which is fired after the AJAX successfully responds.
You can try something like this:-
<input name="example" type="text" id="example"
size="50" value="MyDefaultText" onfocus="if(this.value=='MyDefaultText')this.value=''"
onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='MyDefaultText'" />
Have you tried:
$("#txt").val("Hello World!");
For setting the text value, and,
var my_string = $("#txt").val();
For getting the text value.
Let me know if it works.
Excellent question. You would think clone would do this on its own, alas, it doesn't.
Here is a sample than you can hopefully adapt to do what you need
HTML
<div id=divToCopy>
<input name=i1 value=foo><br>
<input name=i2 value=bar>
</div>
<input type=button onclick=copyDiv(); value='Copy the div'>
<div id=newDiv>
the copy will go here
</div>
JavaScript
function copyDiv() {
$('#newDiv').html($('#divToCopy').clone());
$('#divToCopy :input').each(function() {
var child=0;
for (var i = 0; i < this.attributes.length; i++) {
var attrib = this.attributes[i];
var prop=$(this).prop(attrib.name);
$($('#newDiv').find(' :input')[child]).prop(attrib.name,prop);
child++;
}
});
}
But it does work: http://jsbin.com/eXEROtU/1/edit
var html = '<input type="text" id="txt" value=""/>';
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#load").click(function() {
$("#sub_input_box").html(html);
});
$("#inspect").click(function() {
alert($("#txt").val());
});
});
$(document).on('focusout','input[type="text"]',function(a){
console.log(a.target.value);
a.target.setAttribute("value",a.target.value);
});
this is the solution i found, i had to set the value attribute explicitly on loose focus from the text field
Say I got a HTML form like below and want to pass the values in the textfields to JS variables.
<form name="testform" action="" method="?"
<input type="text" name="testfield1"/>
<input type="text" name="testfield2"/>
</form>
I've only passed values to variables in PHP before. When doing it in javascript, do I need a method? And the main question, how is it done?
Here are a couple of examples:
Javascript:
document.getElementById('name_of_input_control_id').value;
jQuery:
$("#name_of_input_control_id").val();
Basically you are extracting the value of the input control out of the DOM using Javascript/jQuery.
the answers are all correct but you may face problems if you dont put your code into a document.ready function ... if your codeblock is above the html part you will not find any input field with the id, because in this moment it doesnt exist...
document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
var input = document.getElementById('name_of_input_control_id').value;
}, false);
jQuery
jQuery(document).ready(function($){
var input = $("#name_of_input_control_id").val();
});
You don't really need a method or an action attribute if you're simply using the text fields in Javascript
Add a submit button and an onsubmit handler to the form like this,
<form name="testform" onsubmit="return processForm(this)">
<input type="text" name="testfield1"/>
<input type="text" name="testfield2"/>
<input type="submit"/>
</form>
Then in your Javascript you could have this processForm function
function processForm(form) {
var inputs = form.getElementsByTagName("input");
// parse text field values into an object
var textValues = {};
for(var x = 0; x < inputs.length; x++) {
if(inputs[x].type != "text") {
// ignore anything which is NOT a text field
continue;
}
textValues[inputs[x].name] = inputs[x].value;
}
// textValues['testfield1'] contains value of first input
// textValues['testfield2'] contains value of second input
return false; // this causes form to NOT 'refresh' the page
}
Try the following in your "submit":
var input = $("#testfield1").val();
