I have been trying to fetch the result of a php page after sending a post request to the page itself. I want to fetch the data after the post request succeeded and get the content of the div element with id result. Here is the code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My Form</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#myForm").submit(function() {
$.post("test.php",
{
name: "valid"
},
function(data, status) {
});
return false;
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form method="POST" id="myForm">
<input type="text" name="name" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
<div id="result">
<?php
if(isset($_POST['name'])) {
if($_POST['name'] == 'valid') {
echo 'You are a valid user!';
}
}
?>
</div>
</body>
</html>
When I submit the button regardless of what is written in the textbox I should get the Your a valid user message from the test.php I want to get this message in the result page and display it in the current page without reloading the page. Since the result page content is saved in data variable I don't know how to select an element which is contained in a variable instead of the current page itself. We can do $("div#result").text() for the current page. But how should I do it for the html content stored in a variable?
Just give your data variable as second parameter to jQuery like this:
$('#result', data).text()
Not tested but should work.
Update:
I don't know why but this will only work when your element you want to find is wrapped with another element within your body tag. See this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/xf32L5uj/

i am trying to get a value in input box automatically by clicking button "get name", from database. how can i implement it...?
my so far work is below...
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("button").click(function(){
var n = $("#div2").load("getTotal.html #p1").val();
$("#div2").val(n);
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="text" id="div2" value=""/>
<button>Get Name</button>
</body>
</html>
and getTotal.html page contents...
<h2>jQuery and AJAX is FUN!!!</h2>
<p id="p1">John D. Feller</p>
in doing so.... i am getting an error "[object, Object]".
Help me out....with this error and advice me how can i take values from database.
Issues in the code:
1) $("#div2").load(...) doesn't make much sense because it's telling jQuery to pull the content of the URL as HTML content of #div2. Here #div2 is an input which is not supposed to have HTML content. http://api.jquery.com/load/
2) You may want to load only the content of #p1 by using getTotal.html #p1, but this syntax won't work as you expected. jQuery can only pull the full content of getTotal.html, then you need to extract content of #p1 from it.
Assuming getTotal.html page is in same directory as your main page, the JS code can be modified to:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("button").click(function(){
$.get("getTotal.html", null, function(text) {
$("#div2").val($(text).filter("#p1").html());
});
});
});
I have jsp from server-side. When i make ajax call with jquery from client-side there is response with empty spaces which is generated by scriptlet from JSP.
JSP in its turn connects to database and retrieves login if exists and sends response - a single word.
If there is no such row it does not do anything, so the response is almost empty (when I say empty I mean there are empty spaces, tabs and line drops).
So how to remove those absolutely empty spaces in response.
The code is
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="js/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
i = 0;
$(document).ready(function(){
$("input").keyup(function(){
$.post("checkLogin.jsp",
{
login: $('input').val(),
},
function(data,status){
$('#error').html(data.length);
});
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
Enter your name: <input id='input' type="text">
<p style="background-color: red;" id="error"></p>
</body>
</html>`
Try to use Maven, once run it will install all the required dependencies in your .m2(C:\Users\username) folder.
You can use the following for your reference.

I would like to start off saying that I'm very new to programming. I am developing a site (www.example.com) that has multiple hyperlinks.
When a user visits my site I want all the links to be defaulted to the back office of another site (www.tvcmatrix.com/mhammonds) I use. How do I set the links to redirect to the query string value based on inputted text from a form that is on my site (www.example.com)?
In other words, if the url reads www.example.com/?user=abelliard, how do I make all the links on the site change to "www.tvcmatrix.com/abelliard"? If no query string is present, then I would like for the links to be www.tvcmatrix.com/mhammonds.
Here is a file on my site for the form called "form.asp"
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<form action="viral.asp" method="get" name="input" target="_self">
Your TVC Matrix Associate ID: <input type="text" name="user" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
Here is the "viral.asp" file in the "form.asp" file.
<%# language="javascript"%>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<%
var id = Request.QueryString("user");
Response.Write("Your URL is: www.mca.com/?user=" + id)
%>
</body>
</html>
Here is the last file and front end of the site called "front.asp"
I have 'viral' and 'form' down packed. The main thing I needed help with was the front end of the site that deals with the links.
I have no clue if I am even a tad bit close or way off track, but what I have isn't working at all so I know it's wrong.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Main Site</title>
</head>
<body>
Click Here!
<iframe width="450" height="40" src="form.asp">
</iframe>
</body>
<script lang="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function tvcid() {
var username = document.getElementById('username');
if (username.value != "") {
tvcid = "username";
}
else {
tvcid = "mhammonds";
}
}
</script>
</html>
How do I pass a variable through a hyperlink?
For staters, you're not using a hyperlink, you're submitting a form.
Request.QueryString("user"); is looking for something on the querystring. You're using POST, which has form fields.
Use Request("user");, which will grab the value regardless of whether it's on the querystring or a POST field. If you want to force recognition of form fields only, use Request.Form("user");
Classic ASP code is executed server side when the page loads. You are submitting a form inside an iframe, and the result page is also displayed inside the iframe. This result can't change anything on the parent page because it has already been loaded. The easiest way around this would be to have all your code on the same page. I'll show you how to do this with VBS as the scripting language, it's what I'm used to, but it should be easy enough to use server side JS instead
<%# language="VBScript"%>
<%
Dim id
If Request("user") <> "" then
id = Request("user")
else
id = "mhammonds"
End if
%>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Main Site</title>
</head>
<body>
Click Here!<br />
<% If Request("Submit") <> "Submit" then %>
<form method="get">
Your TVC Matrix Associate ID: <input type="text" name="user" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
<% else
Response.Write("Your URL is: www.mca.com/?user=" & id)
End If %>
</body>
</html>
If you really don't want to have to reload front.asp then you need to look at ajax, and add the relevant tag to your question
I have 2 HTML files like this.
parent.html
<form method='get' action=''>
<input type='hidden' name='something'>
<input type='button' name='submit' value='Submit' onclick='newwindow=window.open("child.html","popup","height=150,width=200");'>
</form>
child.html
Enter Something Here<br />
<input type='text' name='somethingelse'>
<input type='button' name='submit' value='OK'>
When the user clicks on Submit button in parent, a new popup window will show up and ask him to enter something.
Can anybody please tell me how can I transfer the value of input[somethingelse] from
child to input[something] and submit the form in parent after the user has clicked OK?
You can get a reference to the form in the parent window via window.opener.document, like this:
var form = window.opener.document.getElementById("theFormID");
(You'd give the form an ID, although there are other ways to do it.)
Then you can access the fields in that form, and of course set their .value property, and you can submit the form via its .submit() function.
But fair warning: Users don't like pop-ups. If there's any way you can just incorporate the other field into the form, I would recommend that instead.
Here's a full example: Live Copy | Source | Source of popup
The main page:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset=utf-8 />
<title>JS Bin</title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="theForm" action="" method="GET">
<input type="text" id="theField" name="theField">
<br><input type="submit" value="Send" onclick="window.open('/urawum/1','','height=400,width=400'); return false;">
</form>
</body>
</html>
The popup:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset=utf-8 />
<title>JS Bin</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Please fill in more information:</p>
<input type="text" id="thePopupField">
<br><input type="button" value="Send Form" onclick="doTheSubmit();">
<script>
function doTheSubmit() {
var doc = window.opener.document,
theForm = doc.getElementById("theForm"),
theField = doc.getElementById("theField");
theField.value = document.getElementById("thePopupField").value;
window.close();
theForm.submit();
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
If you run that, you find that when you click Send on the main page, it does the popup. If you fill in a value in the popup and click Send Form, the popup disappears and the form is submitted. You can tell the form is submitted with the value because I've used method="GET" and so you can see theField=yourValue in the query string in the URL of the resulting page. For instance, if you type "my value" into the popup, you'll see the URL http://jsbin.com/abiviq/1?theField=my+value in the main page after the form submit. (But your form presumably uses POST rather than GET, I'm just using GET to demonstrate.)
$('#popupformid').submit(function() {
var myVar = $('#somethingelseid').val();
$('input:text.something').val(myVar);
document.getElementById("formID").submit();
});
I create this tiny JS so i can control the form submit with jQuery
$('#submit').click(function() {
$('#addForm').submit();
});
Can I use a simple href link for it?
Something like
link
I tried
link
but it didn't work (it by pass the other jQuery in the page)
If you want the JS that you created to control the submit, don't have a href value in your link:
<a id="submit">link</a>
You cannot submit your form that way with a link and some javaScript, even jQuery. You have to use an XHR call to submit your query AND not refresh the page. (you can submit your form with a link as presented by Dan, but I understand that you want to do more than just that from your questions)
The reason being that the "return false" statement will impact the link action, and not the form submission itself.
In any case, I would advise you to not use a link to submit your form at all.
You can easily submit a form with the normal submit button and a bit of jQuery. That way, you provide a nice fallback to your users that have not enabled javaScript.
You can even submit the form with some client side validation, using the following HTML / javaScript:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Sample</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$('#addForm').submit(function(){
validate();
ajax_submit_function_taking_form_data_as_argument($(this).serialize());
return false;
});
});
function validate(){
//Do some client side validation if required
}
function ajax_submit_function_taking_form_data_as_argument(theData){
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: "http://search.google.com/",
data: theData,
error: function(e){
alert('error...');
},
success: function(data){
alert('success!');
}
});
}
</script>
<style type="text/css"></style>
</head>
<body>
<form id="addForm">
<input type="text" name="field1" value="" />
<input type="submit" value="submit" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
A last solution, albeit maybe too heavy weight for your use, would be to use the excellent jQuery form plugin from http://jquery.malsup.com/form/
I hope that helps!
You can attach to the click event with jquery. It's also cleaner not to put any javascript in your html.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Sample</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$('#aSubmit').click(function(){
$('#form1').submit();
return false;
});
});
</script>
<style type="text/css"></style>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" action="http://www.google.com/search" name=f>
<input name="q" />
</form>
submit
</body>
</html>
Never ever put JavaScript in the href attribute. If you must put in the HTML, use the onclick attribute, and remember to add return false. Also, never ever prefix script with javascript:.
Your first script block should do the job just as fine as well, though.
(And what does "it by pass the other jQuery in the page" mean?)
