How can I know which form I clicked? Is it possible with a button class instead of buttons with id?
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".form-buttons").click(function () {
//I only want the form which corresponds to the button I clicked
var formDates = $(form).serialize()
alert ("You clicked "+formDates)
})
})
<form id="form1">
<input type="text" value="date1" name="name1"/>
<input type="text" value="date2" name="name2"/>
<input type="text" value="date3" name="name3"/>
<button type="button" class="form-button"></button>
</form>
<form id="form2">
<input type="text" value="date4" name="name1"/>
<input type="text" value="date5" name="name2"/>
<input type="text" value="date6" name="name3"/>
<button type="button" class="form-button"></button>
</form>
Yes use class instead of id for similar elements. Please try this.
Note: form-button is the class name in your HTML and not form-buttons
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".form-button").click(function () {
var formDates = $(this).closest('form').serialize();
alert ("You clicked "+formDates)
})
})
I think you be looking for
$('.form-button').on('click', function () {
alert($(this).parents('form').attr('id')); // Check the ID of the form clicked
});
something Maybe Like mentioned above.
You can get the name of the element by using the this keyword which refer, in a DOM event, to the cibled element :
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".form-buttons").click(function () {
alert('You clicked the form' + this.parentElement.getAttribute('id'));
})
})
You can do this in a few different ways. You can traverse up the DOM and see which form is used or -and this is my favorite- you can submit the form!
Solution 1: Traversing up the DOM
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".form-button").click(function () {
var clicked_form = $(this).parent();
var formDates = clicked_form.serialize();
alert ("You clicked "+formDates);
})
})
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1">
<input type="text" value="date1" name="name1"/>
<input type="text" value="date2" name="name2"/>
<input type="text" value="date3" name="name3"/>
<button type="button" class="form-button"></button>
</form>
<form id="form2">
<input type="text" value="date4" name="name1"/>
<input type="text" value="date5" name="name2"/>
<input type="text" value="date6" name="name3"/>
<button type="button" class="form-button"></button>
</form>
</body>
Solution 2: Submit the form
You already are using the form, so why not submit it? Change the buttons to input elements with type submit and intercept the submit event, like this. This is how I think it should be done. It is also better for user experience because the user can just submit the form by pressing enter.
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$("form").on('submit', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var formDates = $(this).serialize()
alert ("You clicked "+formDates)
})
})
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1">
<input type="text" value="date1" name="name1"/>
<input type="text" value="date2" name="name2"/>
<input type="text" value="date3" name="name3"/>
<input type="submit" class="form-button"></input>
</form>
<form id="form2">
<input type="text" value="date4" name="name1"/>
<input type="text" value="date5" name="name2"/>
<input type="text" value="date6" name="name3"/>
<input type="submit" class="form-button"></input>
</form>
</body>
Check this fiddle on how I would do it.
https://jsfiddle.net/xtfeugav/
Simple use
$("form").submit(function(e) {
to listen for every submit on all the forms you have. To get the ID of the form you use
var formid = $(this).attr('id');
I used e.preventDefault(); to prevent the form don't update the page.
Remember to use <input type="submit" value="Submit"> on your forms to make this work.
Its a simple code, hope it helps.

I have already seen this answer, but I want to disable the submitting of the form when pressing enter only for 1 input.
<form>
<input type="text" name="enterNotDisabled">
<input type="text" name="enterDisabled">
<button type="submit">
</form>
For example, I want that when the focus is on the first input, you can submit the form by pressing enter, but this feature would be disabled for the second input.
Thank you for your help.
just catch the "Enter" key event on that field.
Simple example :
<form>
<input type="text" name="enterNotDisabled">
<input type="text" name="enterDisabled" id="input2">
<button type="submit">
</form>
JS
function catchSubmit(evt) {
if (evt.code === 'Enter') {
evt.preventDefault();
}
}
document.getElementById('input2').addEventListener('keypress', catchSubmit, false);
Javascript
<form id="form">
<input type="text" name="enterNotDisabled">
<input type="text" name="enterDisabled">
<button type="submit">
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.querySelector("#form").addEventListener("submit", function(e){
console.log('event')
e.preventDefault();
});
</script>
jQuery
<form id="form">
<input type="text" name="enterNotDisabled">
<input type="text" name="enterDisabled">
<button type="submit">
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
$('#form').submit(function(ev) {
console.log('event')
ev.preventDefault();
});
</script>
Before anyone marks this as a duplicate, I have looked at many sites and am currently using this one - jQuery - passing value from one input to another for guidance, yet no result... I am trying to pass a value from one input in one form to another input in a 'table'. I have put it in a table because of a very weird reason - it does not display a Sparql value when in a form only displays in a table so the input was placed in a table. My code is below:
Form
<form onclick="txtFullName.value = txtFirstName.value +'_'+ txtLastName.value">
First name : <input type="text" name="txtFirstName" value="#ViewBag.FirstName"/> <br><br>
Last name : <input type="text" name="txtLastName" value="#ViewBag.LastName" /> <br><br>
Full name : <input type="text" id="txtFullName" name="txtFullName"> <br><br />
<input id="submit12" type="button" value="Submit">
</form>
Table
<table id="results">
<Full name:
<br>
<input id="userInput" type="text" name="fullname" ${userJson.userId == ''?'': 'disabled'} value="#ViewBag.DisplayName">
<br>
<input id="submit" type="submit" value="Submit">
</table>
JQUERY
$('#submit12').on('click', function (e) { //Form submit
$('#userInput').change(function () {
$('txtFullName').val($(this).val());
});
});
I am trying to display the txtFullName into userInput input when pressing submit but right now only the `txtFullName' is displayed when pressing submit. Also the submit is the submit button in the FORM.
Anymore info needed let me know:)
You need to change the onclick to action on the form if you are trying to use submit button. The other way is to use input type button instead of submit:
So:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#submit12').on('click', function (e) {
console.log('test');
$("#txtFullName").val($("#txtFirstName").val() + '_' + $("#txtLastName").val());
});
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form>
First name : <input type="text" id="txtFirstName" value="First"/> <br><br>
Last name : <input type="text" id="txtLastName" value="Last" /> <br><br>
Full name : <input type="text" id="txtFullName" name="txtFullName"> <br><br />
<input id="submit12" type="button" value="Submit">
</form>
If you want to display txtFullName into userInput, simply do something like this:
$('#submit12').on('click', function (e) { //Form submit
$('#userInput').val($('#txtFullName').val());
});
And why do you need change function there , if yo need changes when click submit.
Edit your JQuery like this:
$('#submit12').on('click', function (e) { //Form submit
$('#userInput').change(function () {
$('#txtFullName').val($(this).val());
});
});
$('#submit').on('click', function () { //Form submit
$('#userInput').val($('#txtFullName').val());
});
I don't clearly understand why you do it but It can fix your code.
It is not entirely clear what the two buttons do, but the operation itself is really very simple. See comments inline for explanations:
// Wait until the DOM is loaded and all elements are avaialble
window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(){
// Get references to the DOM elements you'll need
var theForm = document.getElementById("frmTest");
var txtFirstName = document.getElementById("txtFirstName");
var txtLasttName = document.getElementById("txtLastName");
var txtFulltName = document.getElementById("txtFullName");
var txtUserInput = document.getElementById("txtUserInput");
var btn1 = document.getElementById("btnSubmit1");
var btn2 = document.getElementById("btnSubmit2");
// Function to join names together
function combine(){
txtFullName.value = txtFirstName.value + '_' + txtLastName.value;
}
// Set event handlers
frmTest.addEventListener("click", combine);
btn1.addEventListener("click", combine);
});
<!-- Keep you JavaScript out of your HTML -->
<form id="frmTest">
First name : <input type="text" id="txtFirstName" name="txtFirstName" value="#ViewBag.FirstName">
<br><br>
Last name : <input type="text" id="txtLastName" name="txtLastName" value="#ViewBag.LastName" >
<br><br>
Full name : <input type="text" id="txtFullName" name="txtFullName"> <br><br />
<input id="btnSubmit1" type="button" value="Combine Names">
<table id="results">
<Full name:
<br>
<input id="txtUserInput" type="text" name="fullname" ${userJson.userId == ''?'': 'disabled'} value="#ViewBag.DisplayName">
<br>
<input id="btnSubmit2" type="submit" value="Submit">
</table>
</form>
I'm making a html5 application which require all fields to be filled in before the submit button can be clicked.
What I want to do now is give an alert if a textbox is not filled in, the problem is that my submit button is disabled until all fields are filled in, so I can't really add an alert to that button.
Any idea's on how to solve this?
I want it so that after filling in the final textbox the submit button becomes available without first having to click on it.
Note that the 'required' does not work.
I have the following code:
HTML:
<form id="winForm">
<p>
<input type="text" id="name" name="name" required />
</p>
<p>
<input type="text" id="vorname" name="vorname" required />
</p>
<p>
<input type="text" id="email1" name="email1" required />
<label id="atteken" >#</label>
<input type="text" id="email2" name="email2 " required />
<textarea id="fullemail" name="fullemail"></textarea>
</p>
<p>
<input type="text" id="telefon" name="telefon" onclick="generateFullAdress()" required />
</p>
<p>
<input type="text" id="firma" name="firma" required />
</p>
<p>
<input type="submit" id="submitBtn" onclick="sendTheMail()" value=" ">
</button><div id="loading"><img src="images/loadingBar.gif" id="load"></img></div>
</p>
</form>
Jquery/JS
<script type="text/javascript">
function generateFullAdress() {
document.getElementById('fullemail').value =
document.getElementById('email1').value + '#' +
document.getElementById('email2').value;
}
</script>
<script>
var $input = $('input:text'),
$register = $('#submitBtn');
$register.attr('disabled', true);
$input.keyup(function() {
var trigger = false;
$input.each(function() {
if (!$(this).val()) {
trigger = true;
}
});
if(trigger) {
$register.attr('disabled',true);
}else {
$register.removeAttr('disabled');
}
});
</script>
Help would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks!
If you have a form as such:
<form id="form">
...
</form>
You can use the following jQuery code to do something before the form is submitted:
$(function() {
$('#form').submit(function() {
// DO STUFF
return true; // return false to cancel form action
});
});
OR
perform the samething with the onsubmit event like
<form action="youraction" onsubmit="validatefunction" method="post">
I have this form http://jsfiddle.net/thiswolf/XDsSt/ with four identical inputs and buttons.The problem is,each section is updates its own unique data in the database so when updating,its important the submit button i click updates the database with the input from that section only.
My function is
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".xx").live('click', function(){
alert('clicked');
});
});
How do i make sure the button click is unique to that section?.
Use an ID value instead for each input button. This way, jQuery can identify it like so:
$('#button_tag');
HTML:
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<section>
<input type="text" value="Town">
<input type="text" value="Mayor">
<input type="text" value="Highway">
<input id="btn1" type="submit" class="xx" value="Submit">
</section>
<section>
<input type="text" value="Town">
<input type="text" value="Mayor">
<input type="text" value="Highway">
<input id="btn2" type="submit" class="xx" value="Submit">
</section>
<section>
<input type="text" value="Town">
<input type="text" value="Mayor">
<input type="text" value="Highway">
<input id="btn3" type="submit" class="xx" value="Submit">
</section>
<section>
<input type="text" value="Town">
<input type="text" value="Mayor">
<input type="text" value="Highway">
<input id="btn4" type="submit" class="xx" value="Submit">
</section>
</body>
</html>
Javascript:
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".xx").live('click', function () {
alert('clicked ' + $(this).attr('id'));
});
});
JsFiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/XDsSt/7/
Get the corresponding section that button belongs to . Then access the elements inside that. You may use the jQuery closest()/parent()(if only one layer of hierarchy of controls) function for that.
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".xx").live('click', function(e){
e.preventDefault(); //if you want to prevent normal form submit
var item=$(this);
var sectionClicked=item.closest("section");
//Let's alert the first text box
alert(sectionClicked.find("input").first().val());
//do whatever with the items belongs the current section
});
});
Sample : http://jsfiddle.net/XDsSt/8/
I recommend you to switch to jQuery on instead of live as it is deprecated.
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".xx").live('click', function() {
$('section').has(this).find(':input:text').each(function() {
alert( this.value ) ;
});
});
});
Demo
If possible then instead of .live(), use .on() with jQUery 1.7+, because live() is deprecated.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("body").on('click', '.xx', function() {
$('section').has(this).find(':input:text').each(function() {
alert( this.value ) ;
});
});
});
Demo
if id is not an option - I don't understand that , but you can put multiple classes in buttons
<input type="button" class="xx btn1" ... >
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".xx").live('click', function(){ // look into on instead on live
if $(this).hasclass('btn1');{
alert('clicked');
}
});
});
I want to create a form like this:
Type in your ID number into the form's input and submit.
The form's action becomes something like /account/{id}/.
I was told JavaScript was the only way to achieve this (see here), but how?
Using jQuery it might look something like this:
$('#inputAccount').change(function () {
$('#myForm').attr('action', 'http://www.example.com/account/' + $('#inputAccount').val());
});
This should change the action of the form any time the text in the input element changes. You could also use .blur() instead of .change() to perform the action whenever focus leaves the input element, so it doesn't keep changing all the time, etc. Then, when the form is submitted, it should submit to whatever was last placed in its action attribute.
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$(frm.txt).keyup(function(){
$(frm).get(0).setAttribute('action', '/account/'+$(frm.txt).val());
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="frm" action="foo">
<input type="text" id="txt" />
<input type="submit" id="sub" value="do eet" />
</form>
You can do something like this in JavaScript. Depending on the checked radio button (in this case,but it could be another form element) it will be chosen an action or the other:
<script type="text/javascript">
function OnSubmitForm()
{
if(document.myform.operation[0].checked == true)
{
document.myform.action ="insert.html";
}
else
if(document.myform.operation[1].checked == true)
{
document.myform.action ="update.html";
}
return true;
}
</script>
<form name="myform" onsubmit="return OnSubmitForm();">
name: <input type="text" name="name"><br>
email: <input type="text" name="email"><br>
<input type="radio" name="operation" value="1" checked>insert
<input type="radio" name="operation" value="2">update
<p>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="save">
</p>
</form>
