I have this text field hidden with HTML hidden code, now when the user enter an invalid input I use javascript to unhide the text field and display an error message, this is what is suppose to happen.
I have seen a lot of css style like
`style.visibility = 'visible';` and `style.display='block';`
But none of them are working for me what happens is that the error text shows for less than a second and then disappears, any one would like to share their thoughts.
This is the complete code for better understanding, it's still not working in firefox and Edge while IE and Chrome wont do anything, in Firefox, it just blinks once on each button press and that about it.
Javascript:
</script>
function validate(){
var firstname = document.getElementById("fn").value;
if (firstname == "") {
document.getElementById("fn").style.visibility = "visible";
document.getElementById("fn").text = "ERROR";
}
}
function init()
{
var formData = document.getElementById("enqForm");
formData.onsubmit = validate;
}
window.onload = init;
</script>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<script src="scripts.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="enqForm">
<input id="fn" type="text" placeholder="First Name *" />
<input id="sendbutton" type="submit" value="Enquire" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
Instead of changing the style, you can change the form's type attribute.
Using JavaScript - assuming you want to change lnspan to text:
document.getElementById('lnspan').type = 'text';
Style is not the same as the type attribute.
Also there's two id attributes in your <input>, you may want to change that.
**THAT IS THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION**
<html>
<head>
<script>
function newDoc() {
document.getElementById("hid").type="text";
document.getElementById("hid").value="ERROR";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" value="Load new document" onclick="newDoc()">
<input type="hidden" id="hid" value="">
</body>
</html>
<!--However this makes your error message as text field which is not good.
What you can do is make the Error into embedded into paragraph <p> so the
users cannot change it and it also looks more professional
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script>
function newDoc() {
document.getElementById("te").innerHTML="ERROR";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" value="Load new document" onclick="newDoc()">
<p id="te">
</body>
</html>

I'm trying to keep the previously submitted value on the screen after hitting the submit button. For example, If I enter Apple and press submit, Apple appears. However, if I enter Banana, Apple disappears and is replaced by Banana. Is there a way to keep Apple on the page after I submit Banana? Here's the HTML/JavaScript I'm using.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>HTML JavaScript output on same page</title>
<script type="text/JavaScript">
function showMessage() {
var message = document.getElementById("message").value;
display_message.innerHTML = message;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
Enter message: <input type="text" id="message">
<input type="button" onclick="showMessage()" value="submit" />
</form>
<p> Message is: <span id="display_message"></span> </p>
</body>
</html>
You just need to join the inputs together. Depending on how you want that to appear on screen. In this example. I push each input into an array, then join the array with a comma and display the list.
If you are looking to do more complex layouts take a look at a template language for example: http://handlebarsjs.com/
<body>
<form>
Enter message: <input type="text" id = "message">
<input type="button" onclick="showMessage()" value="submit" />
</form>
<p> Message is: <span id = "display_message"></span> </p>
</body>
JS
var entries=[];
function showMessage(){
var message = document.getElementById("message").value;
entries.push(message);
display_message.innerHTML= entries.join(",");
}

I added an extra line of code at the bottom of your function to clear the text input each time "submit"is clicked.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js"></script>
<script>
var allMessages = "";
function showMessage(){
var message = document.getElementById("message").value;
allMessages += message + " ";
display_message.innerHTML= allMessages;
document.getElementById("message").value = "";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
Enter message: <input type="text" id = "message">
<input type="button" onclick="showMessage()" value="submit" />
</form>
<p> Message is: <span id = "display_message"></span> </p>
</body>
</html>
So this should be changing the page so that when they click the button it shows a total of everything they have selected in the form, but it is not doing anything. It seems that it is not even running the script at all, and I have no idea what is up.
...more form stuff up here
<button type="button" onclick="total(this.form)">Get my Total</button>
<p id="subtotal"></p>
<input type="submit">
</form>
<script>
function total(form)
{
var SynCr= form.Synth.value;
document.getElementById("subtotal").innerHTML="You have ordered: <br>"+SynCr+" Synth");
}
</script>
Your problem is onclick="total(this.form)". When the handler is called this refers to the button, which does not have a form as a member.
Try instead:
onclick="total(document.getElementById('formId'))"
First of all:
this.form does not return the parent form.
Second: you have a syntax error in: document.getElementById("subtotal").innerHTML="You have ordered: <br>"+SynCr+" Synth"); the last ) should not be there.
The following is sinppet of code shows you in some what how to debug your code and it works:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>JS Bin</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="hgg">
<input type="text" name="Synth" value="" />
<button type="button" onclick="total(this)">Get my Total</button>
</form>
<div id="subtotal">
<p>5518</p>
</div>
<script>
function total(button)
{
form1 = button.parentNode;
alert(form1.Synth.value)
/*alert(p.id)
alert("555");*/
SynCr= form1.Synth.value;
alert(SynCr)
k = document.getElementById("subtotal");
k.innerHTML = "You have ordered: <br>"+SynCr+"Synth";
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
Look at this online demo: http://jsbin.com/voruzumi/1/
i have problem on sending textbox value from one html page to another html page.
In first page i am sending first name and last name values.and i want to catch this value in textbox on the second page( i.e home.html).but some erroe occurs.
error is :Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'value' of null
how to solve? please tell me.
i know this stupid question.but please tell me guys.i don't know javascript.
this is my html code:
<!DOCTYPE html">
<html>
<head>
<script src="ttt.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<form method="get" action="home.html" name="ff">
Firstname: <input id="f" type="text" name="firstname1">
Lastname: <input type="text" name="lastname">
<input type="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
this is my home.html code:
<!DOCTYPE html">
<html>
<head>
<script src="ttt.js"></script>
<script Language="JavaScript">
var tttt=val();
document.getElementById('text').value=tttt;
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="ff">
<input id="text" class="text" type="text" name="MyValue" value="helloS"/>
</form>
</div>
</body>
</html>
this is my javascript code(ttt.js)
function val(){
var link=location.href;
var str=link.split('?');
var str1=str[1].split('&');
var str11=str1[0].split('=');
var str12=str1[1].split('=');
var temp=str11[1]+" "+str12[1];
return(temp);
}
Put your javascript at the end of your html and change document.getElementById('tr') to document.getElementById('text'). You have no element with id tr.
please look at this question and its answers, it is demonstating how to pass value from one html page to another
link
You have to do getElementById('tr') when the dom is ready and ensuring that an element with the ID exists.
I want to create a TextField in which when I give any input it show on div and this script is showing inputs but not properly...
I don't know where I am making mistakes and I request that please give your answers only in JavaScript please don't use jquery. Thank you .
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset=utf-8 />
<title>JS Bin</title>
</head>
<body>
<form name="form">
<input name="t" value="" onkeypress="printvalues();">
</form>
<div id="divId"></div>
</body>
</html>
script
function printvalues() {
var div = document.getElementById("divId");
div.innerHTML += form.t.value;
}
Here is my code with output
function printvalues() {
var div = document.getElementById("divId");
div.innerHTML = document.form.t.value;
}
EDIT:The keypress event executes before the value of textbox is changed so use keyup() event which triggers when the key is released instead like
<input name="t" value="" onkeyup="printvalues();">
Your solution is here....
Just change onkeypress to onkeyup
Made below changes and enjoy..
function printvalues(a) {
var div = document.getElementById("divId");
div.innerHTML=a;
}
<input type="text" name="t" onkeyup="printvalues(this.value);">
I am trying to get the user to put something into the text area and the output should be what he wrote repeapiting x amount of times, but I get an error "document.forme is undefined".
Can you please help me understand why it is undefined?
My code:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>input home work</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
var help= document.forme.tryout.value;
for (x=1; x<=10;x++){
function numberCheak (){
document.write("this is"+" "+help++);
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="forme">
<input name="tryout" type="text" />
<input type="button" value="click me" onClick="numberCheak();"/>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Ok, you have a few problems. The first is that you are trying to access a form element that doesn't exist yet: the script is above the form element, so the form doesn't exist when you try to get it. If you move the script to the bottom of the page it will work better.
Second, the loop should be inside the function, not wrapped around the function.
Third, document.write has weird side effects and causes the document to be rewritten and will stop the script from continuing correctly.
Here's my revised script
function numberCheak() {
var help = document.forme.tryout.value;
for (var x = 1; x <= 10; x++) {
document.getElementById("output").innerHTML += help;
}
}
and the HTML form that goes with it
<form name="forme" id="forme">
<input name="tryout" type="text" />
<input type="button" value="click me" onclick="numberCheak();" />
<span id="output"></span>
</form>
You can see it in action on jsFiddle.
Forms are stored in collection and can be accessed like this:
var form = document.forms[i];
or
var form = document.forms[name];
In your case, i is 0 and name is forme.
