I am using the jQuery validate plugin and I am running into an issue with how the error messages are displayed. From looking in the developer tools I found that the error message is .error, so I am trying to modify this. I am wanting the error message to display within the input of the field that didn't pass the validation. As you can see in my code, I am wanting the error to be on the right side.
I am doing this for the error:
.error {
color: red;
display: inline !important;
vertical-align: top;
margin-bottom: 5px;
}
label.error {
/*margin-left: 10%;*/
right: 5%;
}
I tried doing this instead of the label.error
input.error {
/*margin-left: 10%;*/
right: 5%;
}
But it didn't help.
Please let me know if I can add more info to this question.
add your style
.error {position : absolute}
End then put margin and padding it to where you want
Update answer
In your site, you should edit html like below
<form action="" autocomplete="on" method="POST" id="project-information-form" novalidate="novalidate">
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" class="input-borderless error" id="title-roll" name="title" placeholder="Title/Role" aria-required="true">
<label id="title-roll-error" class="error" for="title-roll">Please enter your title</label>
</div>
...
Then you set style .input-group {position : relative} and .error {position : absolute}
If you don't want bound your input and your error to one div, you need calculate your input position by javascript. And in your javascript, you set position for .error element. But I think that way is effortless

I would like to add a red required text on the right side of a text input. I would want it to look similar to this. An email field with the required tag.
I apologize for not have code to add, the only things ive tried have been messing with placeholders as i have no idea which direction to go for this. Any help is much appreciated.
You may want to consider something like this.
input {
padding: 1em;
width: 250px;
}
/* Position label on top of input field */
label {
margin-left: -80px;
position: relative;
z-index: 2;
}
/* Show red label when input invalid */
input:required:invalid+label {
color: red;
}
/* Don't display label when input is valid */
input:required:valid+label {
display: none;
}
<input type="email" id="email_input" placeholder="Email" required>
<label for="email_input">Required</label>
I have used this jQuery Form Validator and I am trying to implement a tooltip as an error message instead of the simple span tag message.
Hence I am trying to follow this thread How to display messages from jQuery Validate plugin inside of Tooltipster tooltips? in which they have given a jsfiddle link to achieve the same which I m trying to follow.
Here is my jsfiddle what I have tried so far.
I am unable to put the same code in my question here, because question has reached maximum characters limit. Hence I have create jsfiddle for the same.
Can someone guide me why its not working ? What should I do from here on to achieve the same.
Thanks
Ok Guys,
Here what I have done to achieve this.
<style>
/* Tooltip container */
.tooltipPopup {
/*position: relative; */
/* display: inline-block;*/
/* border-bottom: 1px dotted black; /* If you want dots under the hoverable text */ */
}
/* Tooltip text */
.tooltipPopup .tooltiptextPopup {
visibility: hidden;
width: 120px;
background-color: red;
color: white;
text-align: center;
padding: 5px 0;
border-radius: 6px;
/* Position the tooltip text - see examples below! */
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
}
/* Show the tooltip text when you mouse over the tooltip container */
.tooltipPopup:hover .tooltiptextPopup{
visibility: visible;
}
</style>
<form action="" id="myform" >
<p class="tooltipPopup">
E-mail
<input name="email" data-validation="email" >
<!-- <input name="email" data-validation="email" data-validation-error-msg-container='item-price-error-dialog' >
<span id="item-price-error-dialog"></span> -->
</p>
<p>
<input value="Validate" type="submit">
<input value="Reset form" type="reset">
</p>
</form>
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery-form-validator/2.3.26/jquery.form-validator.min.js"></script>
<script>
// initialize validate plugin on the form
$.validate({
// errorElementClass:'tooltip',
errorMessageClass:'tooltiptextPopup'
});
</script>
Here, I set errorMessageClass to tooltiptextPopup and <p class="tooltipPopup"> so that it can cover up my tooltip.
Hope this helps to someone who stuck in same situation and wanting to implement the same without any third party library inclusion.
Thanks
I've created an expanding search bar: You click on the magnifying glass the input extends out and to the right, click it again and it closes. (See Fiddle Below).
I'm new to the world of JS and I thought this would be a great opportunity to implement some logic. Here's what I;m trying to do:
If the search bar is open and the inner.html is empty, if you click the "search" magnifying glass, I want to prevent the default submission of the form and simply close the search bar
If there is text, I want the form to be submitted.
Right now I've got the elements layered in such a way as to when you click the "search" button for the first time, the bar extends and the z-index of the button drops to one where the actual submit button is higher, but I want to control the functionality a little more.
What I've tried:
I tried creating a function that added an event listener that said, basically, if the bar has a width of 700px (the extended length) and the inner html is empty, bring the z-index of the extend button up back higher than the submit simply close the form. But I can't seem to work the logic out properly.
I'm wondering how in JS you can control the z-index.
Here is the code I tried and did not work. I tried something simply like just alerting when the task I wanted to watch for was done first but it doesn't seem to be working.
Any help would be wonderful.

var search_submit = document.getElementById("myForm").search_submit;
function showOpen()

{
alert("OPEN!");
}
};
search.addEventListener("click", showOpen);
showOpen();
HERE IS THE FIDDLE: https://jsfiddle.net/theodore_steiner/7begmkf3/37/
Your issue can be solved using a few basic JavaScript elements (if you're looking to get into basic logic, these are important to know). The JS uses onsubmit, onclick, and some basic form logic. Basically, when you try to submit the form it checks if the form is empty, and if it is, the program refuses to submit the code. I added the new JavaScript to the HTML file:
<script>
function check(){
value = document.forms["myForm"]["search"].value;
if(value == "" || value == null){
alert("please enter a search term");
return false;
}else{
document.getElementById("myForm").submit();
}
}
</script>
<div id="wrap">
<form id="myForm" onsubmit="return check()">
<input id="searchBar" name="search" type="text" placeholder="What are we looking for?" />
<input id="search_submit" value="" type = "submit">
</form>
</div>
fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/q1L3Lstx/1/
It might also help in the future to look at the required element: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_input_required.asp
I saw a couple of issues with the code.
search and search_submit are pointing to the wrong items they can be like this:
var search = document.getElementById("search");
var search_submit = document.getElementById("search_submit");
You could call a function on submit. like this:
<form id="myForm" onsubmit="myFunction(event)">
finally you can work your code inside that function:
function myFunction(e){
if(search.value.length <= 0){
e.preventDefault();
alert('empty');
}
}

This is in my HTML page. I have negative top to show and hide forms for better views.
Please clear me the following doubts
1) I have to send the data to server when user submits form. I do client-side and server-side validation. If client-side validation fails, I 'll show the errors in the form itself. If there is any server-side error, how do i show this in the form?
My ideas:
I have to insert some php error tags in the html page and change my filetype to php from html so that if there is any server side error i ll insert the error in those tags.
<span class="error">* <?php echo $emailErr;?></span>
Something like the above.
(or)
Take the user to another php page where user re-enter the details. and handles all the error in the same page.
2) What are the problems with this type of negative top form design?
Please let me know the problems and suitable solutions so that i get clean design. I don't want the code only the idea.
There are couple of ways to do it but I am gonna stay low here by giving more of a hint to what you can do.
Using AJAX to submit form?
If the validation fails in PHP...
Create an associative array containing all the error messages and a key like submitError set to TRUE.
json_encode the array and die or return it.
In your JavaScript AJAX success callback, check for the existence of submitError key in the response.
If true, parse and display all messages from the JSON response you received. Done!
NOT using AJAX?
You can utilize $_SESSION to store the errors and related messages & set a flag for error.
When the page loads/submits, check if $_SESSION contains that flag.
If it does, pull the messages from session and display to the user.
Once displayed, clear those things from $_SESSION
These things can be done for small applications. If you are using some kind of framework like CodeIgniter or Laravel, you may want to check their session flash methods.
About Negative Top Form Design
I don't see much of a problem there unless it's covering up something vital beneath it when opened. Specially on mobile version( if you plan to do that).
I have a great bit of code that sets the label to 0.5 opacity when the input field is on focus. Now, I'd like to set this to 0 (100% invisibility) if possible.
Can someone help out with this?
Here's my fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/d8Apy/5/
My HTML:
<div class="fieldgroup">
<label for="name">Name</label>
<input type="text" id="name" name="name">
</div><!--/.fieldgroup-->
My CSS:
* {
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
font-family: Arial;
}
.fieldgroup {
position: relative;
}
input[type='text'],
label {
padding: 5px;
font-size: 16px;
line-height: 16px;
margin: 0;
height: 30px;
color: #fff;
display: block;
}
input[type='text'] {
border: none;
background: green;
}
I am using this jQuery plugin: http://fuelyourcoding.com/in-field-labels/
Many thanks for any pointers :-)
There is a line of code in the in-field-labels code that says...
$.InFieldLabels.defaultOptions={fadeOpacity:0.5,fadeDuration:300,labelClass:'infield'};
Change this to...
$.InFieldLabels.defaultOptions={fadeOpacity:0.0,fadeDuration:300,labelClass:'infield'};
fadeOpacity:0.5 to fadeOpacity:0.0
When you apply the plugin to your lables you can set the opacity by passing in an options object like so:
$("label").inFieldLabels({ fadeOpacity:0.0 });
Javascript
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#name").focus(function(){
$('#lblname').css({'opacity':'0'});
});
});
EDIT for fade effect
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#name").focus(function(){
$("#lblname").animate({ 'opacity':'0'},350);
});
});
HTML
<div class="fieldgroup">
<label for="name" id="lblname">Name</label>
<input type="text" id="name" name="name">
</div><!--/.fieldgroup-->
There is an html property called placeholder that does that. I'm not sure however that you can apply a fade effect to it. edit: It might be possible with css transitions and this: Change an HTML5 input's placeholder color with CSS, but it's rather horrible.
<input type="text" name="fname" placeholder="First name">
input[name:fname]:active {
color: green
}
While not implemented by every plugin developer, good practice advocates a plugin accepting an options object. While not terribly clear, you are able to override the fadeOpacity and fadeDuration options.
To solve your issue, simply pass in an options object that specifies the fadeOpacity like so:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('label').inFieldLabels({fadeOpacity: 0.0});
});
