I have the code below, i want to get the content of the textareas with the same id of each table row and store it in an array. When I get them I want to append each of them in a div with the same id on a different table. I tried but it appends only the first content to all the divs.
For example instead of web updates and ssl certificates on each row of column description it displays web updates on both of them.
<table id="items">
<tr>
<th>Description</th>
<th>Unit Cost</th>
</tr>
<tr class="item-row">
<td class="description">
<textarea id='description'>Monthly web updates</textarea>
</td>
<td>
<textarea id='cost'class="cost">€650.00</textarea>
</td>
</tr>
<tr class="item-row">
<td class="description">
<textarea id='description'> SSL certificates </textarea>
</td>
<td>
<textarea id='cost'class="cost">€75.00</textarea>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
The result should look like the same table but instead of textareas it should have div with <p> </p> inside.
Officially you only can use one unique id for each element with id attribute. That is why you can't select more than one element by id
let single = document.getElementById('id');
let multiple = document.getElementsByTagName('tag');
I have two fields in a form.I have applied various custom validation using javascript on first field.So I want to display Error meassage just below the field if value entered by user fails the validations.But problem here is user can add as many row as he want using an 'Add Row' button available.So Suppose user adds 3 rows.And the error is in second row , "error value" message should be displayed just below the field of second row.Following is part of my code inside form.So How do I display error using javascript solely(Not using controller class).Please help.
<apex:outputPanel id="List">

You must be iterating through the input fields in your javascript function. While iterating each field you will have the ID of the field.
Using javascript and CSS you can insert a new DIV below the input with error and can then style and show error message in that DIV.
Or, you can add a empty DIV inside the repeat tag and can then style/add innerHTML to it if you find a error.
I'm trying to create a table where each row is a form. I want that each input is in a different table division, but I still need that for example, all first inputs belong to the same table head and so on.
What I'm trying to do is an editable grid, more or less this:
<table>
<tr>
<form method="POST" action="whatever">
<td><input type="text"/></td>
<td><input type="text"/></td>
</form>
</tr>
<tr>
<form method="POST" action="whatever">
<td><input type="text"/></td>
<td><input type="text"/></td>
</form>
</tr>
</table>
But apparently I cannot arrange the tags in that way (or so is what the w3c validator said).
Any good way to do this?
If you want a "editable grid" i.e. a table like structure that allows you to make any of the rows a form, use CSS that mimics the TABLE tag's layout: display:table, display:table-row, and display:table-cell.
There is no need to wrap your whole table in a form and no need to create a separate form and table for each apparent row of your table.
Try this instead:
<style>
DIV.table
{
display:table;
}
FORM.tr, DIV.tr
{
display:table-row;
}
SPAN.td
{
display:table-cell;
}
</style>
...
<div class="table">
<form class="tr" method="post" action="blah.html">
<span class="td"><input type="text"/></span>
<span class="td"><input type="text"/></span>
</form>
<div class="tr">
<span class="td">(cell data)</span>
<span class="td">(cell data)</span>
</div>
...
</div>
The problem with wrapping the whole TABLE in a FORM is that any and all form elements will be sent on submit (maybe that is desired but probably not). This method allows you to define a form for each "row" and send only that row of data on submit.
The problem with wrapping a FORM tag around a TR tag (or TR around a FORM) is that it's invalid HTML. The FORM will still allow submit as usual but at this point the DOM is broken. Note: Try getting the child elements of your FORM or TR with JavaScript, it can lead to unexpected results.
Note that IE7 doesn't support these CSS table styles and IE8 will need a doctype declaration to get it into "standards" mode: (try this one or something equivalent)
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
Any other browser that supports display:table, display:table-row and display:table-cell should display your css data table the same as it would if you were using the TABLE, TR and TD tags. Most of them do.
Note that you can also mimic THEAD, TBODY, TFOOT by wrapping your row groups in another DIV with display: table-header-group, table-row-group and table-footer-group respectively.
NOTE: The only thing you cannot do with this method is colspan.
Check out this illustration: http://jsfiddle.net/ZRQPP/
If all of these rows are related and you need to alter the tabular data ... why not just wrap the entire table in a form, and change GET to POST (unless you know that you're not going to be sending more than the max amount of data a GET request can send).
(That's assuming, of course, that all of the data is going to the same place.)
<form method="POST" action="your_action">
<table>
<tr>
<td><input type="text" name="r1c1" value="" /></td>
<!-- ... snip ... -->
</tr>
<!-- ... repeat as needed ... -->
</table>
</form>
You may have issues with column width, but you can set those explicitly.
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<form>
<table>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<form>
<table>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
You may want to also consider making it a single form, and then using jQuery to select the form elements from the row you want, serialize them, and submit them as the form.
See: http://api.jquery.com/serialize/
Also, there are a number of very nice grid plugins:
http://www.google.com/search?q=jquery+grid&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
If using JavaScript is an option and you want to avoid nesting tables, include jQuery and try the following method.
First, you'll have to give each row a unique id like so:
<table>
<tr id="idrow1"><td> ADD AS MANY COLUMNS AS YOU LIKE </td><td><button onclick="submitRowAsForm('idrow1')">SUBMIT ROW1</button></td></tr>
<tr id="idrow2"><td> PUT INPUT FIELDS IN THE COLUMNS </td><td><button onclick="submitRowAsForm('idrow2')">SUBMIT ROW2</button></td></tr>
<tr id="idrow3"><td>ADD MORE THAN ONE INPUT PER COLUMN</td><td><button onclick="submitRowAsForm('idrow3')">SUBMIT ROW3</button></td></tr>
</table>
Then, include the following function in your JavaScript for your page.
<script>
function submitRowAsForm(idRow) {
form = document.createElement("form"); // CREATE A NEW FORM TO DUMP ELEMENTS INTO FOR SUBMISSION
form.method = "post"; // CHOOSE FORM SUBMISSION METHOD, "GET" OR "POST"
form.action = ""; // TELL THE FORM WHAT PAGE TO SUBMIT TO
$("#"+idRow+" td").children().each(function() { // GRAB ALL CHILD ELEMENTS OF <TD>'S IN THE ROW IDENTIFIED BY idRow, CLONE THEM, AND DUMP THEM IN OUR FORM
if(this.type.substring(0,6) == "select") { // JQUERY DOESN'T CLONE <SELECT> ELEMENTS PROPERLY, SO HANDLE THAT
input = document.createElement("input"); // CREATE AN ELEMENT TO COPY VALUES TO
input.type = "hidden";
input.name = this.name; // GIVE ELEMENT SAME NAME AS THE <SELECT>
input.value = this.value; // ASSIGN THE VALUE FROM THE <SELECT>
form.appendChild(input);
} else { // IF IT'S NOT A SELECT ELEMENT, JUST CLONE IT.
$(this).clone().appendTo(form);
}
});
form.submit(); // NOW SUBMIT THE FORM THAT WE'VE JUST CREATED AND POPULATED
}
</script>
So what have we done here? We've given each row a unique id and included an element in the row that can trigger the submission of that row's unique identifier. When the submission element is activated, a new form is dynamically created and set up. Then using jQuery, we clone all of the elements contained in <td>'s of the row that we were passed and append the clones to our dynamically created form. Finally, we submit said form.
You can use the form attribute id to span a form over multiple elements each using the form attribute with the name of the form as follows:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<form method="POST" id="form-1" action="/submit/form-1"></form>
<input name="a" form="form-1">
</td>
<td><input name="b" form="form-1"></td>
<td><input name="c" form="form-1"></td>
<td><input type="submit" form="form-1"></td>
</tr>
</table>
If you need form inside tr and inputs in every td, you can add form in td tag, and add attribute 'form' that contains id of form tag to outside inputs.
Something like this:
<tr>
<td>
<form id='f1'>
<input type="text">
</form>
</td>
<td>
<input form='f1' type="text">
</td>
</tr>
If all of these rows are related and you need to alter the tabular data ... why not just wrap the entire table in a form, and change GET to POST (unless you know that you're not going to be sending more than the max amount of data a GET request can send).
I cannot wrap the entire table in a form, because some input fields of each row are input type="file" and files may be large. When the user submits the form, I want to POST only fields of current row, not all fields of the all rows which may have unneeded huge files, causing form to submit very slowly.
So, I tried incorrect nesting: tr/form and form/tr. However, it works only when one does not try to add new inputs dynamically into the form. Dynamically added inputs will not belong to incorrectly nested form, thus won't get submitted. (valid form/table dynamically inputs are submitted just fine).
Nesting div[display:table]/form/div[display:table-row]/div[display:table-cell] produced non-uniform widths of grid columns. I managed to get uniform layout when I replaced div[display:table-row] to form[display:table-row] :
div.grid {
display: table;
}
div.grid > form {
display: table-row;
div.grid > form > div {
display: table-cell;
}
div.grid > form > div.head {
text-align: center;
font-weight: 800;
}
For the layout to be displayed correctly in IE8:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
...
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=8, IE=9, IE=10" />
Sample of output:
<div class="grid" id="htmlrow_grid_item">
<form>
<div class="head">Title</div>
<div class="head">Price</div>
<div class="head">Description</div>
<div class="head">Images</div>
<div class="head">Stock left</div>
<div class="head">Action</div>
</form>
<form action="/index.php" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post">
<div title="Title"><input required="required" class="input_varchar" name="add_title" type="text" value="" /></div>
It would be much harder to make this code work in IE6/7, however.
If you can use javascript and strictly require it on your web, you can put textboxes, checkboxes and whatever on each row of your table and at the end of each row place button (or link of class rowSubmit) "save". Without any FORM tag. Form than will be simulated by JS and Ajax like this:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".rowSubmit").click(function()
{
var form = '<form><table><tr>' + $(this).closest('tr').html() + '</tr></table></form>';
var serialized = $(form).serialize();
$.get('url2action', serialized, function(data){
// ... can be empty
});
});
});
</script>
What do you think?
PS: If you write in jQuery this:
$("valid HTML string")
$(variableWithValidHtmlString)
It will be turned into jQuery object and you can work with it as you are used to in jQuery.
I second Harmen's div suggestion. Alternatively, you can wrap the table in a form, and use javascript to capture the row focus and adjust the form action via javascript before submit.
I had a problem similar to the one posed in the original question. I was intrigued by the divs styled as table elements (didn't know you could do that!) and gave it a run. However, my solution was to keep my tables wrapped in tags, but rename each input and select option to become the keys of array, which I'm now parsing to get each element in the selected row.
Here's a single row from the table. Note that key [4] is the rendered ID of the row in the database from which this table row was retrieved:
<table>
<tr>
<td>DisabilityCategory</td>
<td><input type="text" name="FormElem[4][ElemLabel]" value="Disabilities"></td>
<td><select name="FormElem[4][Category]">
<option value="1">General</option>
<option value="3">Disability</option>
<option value="4">Injury</option>
<option value="2"selected>School</option>
<option value="5">Veteran</option>
<option value="10">Medical</option>
<option value="9">Supports</option>
<option value="7">Residential</option>
<option value="8">Guardian</option>
<option value="6">Criminal</option>
<option value="11">Contacts</option>
</select></td>
<td>4</td>
<td style="text-align:center;"><input type="text" name="FormElem[4][ElemSeq]" value="0" style="width:2.5em; text-align:center;"></td>
<td>'ccpPartic'</td>
<td><input type="text" name="FormElem[4][ElemType]" value="checkbox"></td>
<td><input type="checkbox" name="FormElem[4][ElemRequired]"></td>
<td><input type="text" name="FormElem[4][ElemLabelPrefix]" value=""></td>
<td><input type="text" name="FormElem[4][ElemLabelPostfix]" value=""></td>
<td><input type="text" name="FormElem[4][ElemLabelPosition]" value="before"></td>
<td><input type="submit" name="submit[4]" value="Commit Changes"></td>
</tr>
</table>
Then, in PHP, I'm using the following method to store in an array ($SelectedElem) each of the elements in the row corresponding to the submit button. I'm using print_r() just to illustrate:
$SelectedElem = implode(",", array_keys($_POST['submit']));
print_r ($_POST['FormElem'][$SelectedElem]);
Perhaps this sounds convoluted, but it turned out to be quite simple, and it preserved the organizational structure of the table.
Tables are not meant for this, why don't you use <div>'s and CSS?
it's as simple as not using a table for markup, as stated by Harmen. You're not displaying data after all, you're collecting data.
I'll take for example the question 23 here: http://accessible.netscouts-ggmbh.eu/en/developer.html#fb1_22_5
On paper, it's good as it is. If you had to display the results, it'd probably be OK.
But you can replace it with ... 4 paragraphs with a label and a select (option's would be the headers of the first line). One paragraph per line, this is far more simple.
I have a table with 'n' number of rows and by default i have set to display 10 rows in each page as the table is a paginated column.
I am now trying to include a text box where user can enter number of rows that has to displayed in each page as below:
<input type="number" min="1" max="100" ng-model="rowsperpage"/>
I have defined in my controller
$scope.rowsperpage = 10;
This is basically a smart table, trying to figure this out from past 3 hours and thought getting some help from you folks out there.
Please point me if am doing in wrong way, am pretty new to angular world.
Bind your property to st-items-by-page in st-pagination:
<table st-table="rowCollection">
...
<tfoot>
<tr>
<td>
<div st-pagination="" st-items-by-page="rowsperpage"></div>
</td>
</tr>
</tfoot>
</table>

I am creating a website and there are some pages containing the <div> tags as the wrapper of <table>. A <tr> of each table contains a <form> and another <tr> contains some <a> tags. I am using these anchor tags to make buttons just to add hide and show functionality. Whenever some new data is fetched from database, the set of said html structure is created dynamically. Every <div> contains the same id and every <tr> also containing the <form> assigned the same id. Below is my example htmlfor the better explanation.
HTML
<div class='static_archive'> // First Wrapper
<table>
<tr>
<td>Some data</td>
<td>Some data</td>
<td>
<a id='show_hide_details' href='#'>Show/Hide Button</a>
</td>
</tr>
<tr id='form_container'>
<td colspan='3'>
<form>
<input type='text' name'first' />
<input type='text' name'second' />
<input type='text' name'third' />
</form>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<div class='static_archive'> // Second Wrapper
<table>
<tr>
<td>Some data</td>
<td>Some data</td>
<td>
<a id='show_hide_details' href='#'>Show/Hide Button</a>
</td>
</tr>
<tr id='form_container'>
<td colspan='3'>
<form>
<input type='text' name'first' />
<input type='text' name'second' />
<input type='text' name'third' />
</form>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
jQuery
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#form_container").hide();
$("#show_hide_details").click(function(){
$("#form_container").toggle();
});
});
As soon as the page loads, $("#form_container").hide(); hides all the <tr> containing the <form>. By clicking hide/show button with the toggle effect, hides and shows the every content with the same id.
I want to show only one form at a time when a particular button is hide/show button is pressed. How can i control such behavior?
With a new record fetched, a new DIV is created with only one table inside it. And the table contains only one form. The table row containing the form needs to be hide/show.
Here is the jsfiddle with my code structure jsfiddle
Every clicked hide/show should effects the respective form.
I have edited my post. Please have a look now.
You can use $(this) to do the toggle with particular block.
$(this).closest('tr').next("#form_container").toggle();
You should not use same id for multiple elements, assign class and use that
$(this).closest('tr').next(".form_container").toggle();
I think u want this or may this help u.
You can not have same id's for different controls.So u can have id's staring with same string
You can use ^ here:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("[id^='form_container']").hide();
$("#show_hide_details").click(function(){
$(this).parents().next("tr").toggle();
});
});
jsfiddle
I assume you want to show all of them hidden first. Obviously, you have to replace the id's with class.
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".form_container").hide();
$(".show_hide_details").click(function(){
$(this).parents("tr").next().toggle();
});
});
