I have a form like :
<form name="myform">
<input type="text" name="input" />
</form>
But my input is not available in $scope.myform.input and neither by {{ myform.input }}. I tried to add a ng-minlength:
<form name="myform" novalidate>
<input type="text" name="input" ng-minlength="10" />
</form>
And even by typing something shorter than 10, myform is still valid. It's like the input is not part of the form at all.
Here is an example hosted on jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/saag0agc/
AngularJS Documentation on input text: https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/input/input%5Btext%5D
You need an ng-model attribute. For example:
<form name="myform">
<input type="text" name="input" ng-model="input" />
</form>
Then you can access the content via:
{{ input }}
Although I would suggest using a name/model other than input.
The ng-model property is missing on the input.
<form name="myform">
<input type="text" name="input" ng-model="myform.input" />
</form>

Given a simple html form like this:
<form name="myForm" action="#sent" method="post" ng-app>
<input name="userPreference1" type="text" ng-model="shipment.userPreference" />
<input name="userPreference1" type="text" ng-model="shipment.userPreference" />
<input name="userPreference1" type="text" ng-model="shipment.userPreference" />
... submit input and all the other code...
</form>
I need your help to know how to check on validation time, if at least one of the inputs is empty. The desired validation is the following. The user must complete at least one a preference.
Using jQuery this:
if ( $("input").val() == "" ) {
Works ok, but would like to figure out how to do the same thing using angular.
Thanks so much in advance,
Guillermo
So the idea is to disable the submit button if all inputs are blank. You can do like this
<form name="myForm" action="#sent" method="post" ng-app>
<input name="userPreference1" type="text" ng-model="shipment.userPreference1" />
<input name="userPreference1" type="text" ng-model="shipment.userPreference2" />
<input name="userPreference1" type="text" ng-model="shipment.userPreference3" />
<button type="submit" ng-disabled="!(!!shipment.userPreference1 || !!shipment.userPreference2 || !!shipment.userPreference3)">Submit</button>
</form>
!!str is to force to convert str to a boolean value. And both !!null and !!"" are evaluated to be false.
Demo
You can set the "required" in the input elements and style / code how you want to handle with $valid of a form. Check out http://dailyjs.com/2013/06/06/angularjs-7/
My solution was the following:
$scope.requiredInputsGroup = function () {
var isRequired = true;
if (!$scope.shipment) {
return true;
}
angular.forEach(["userPreference1", "userPreference2", "userPreference3"], function (input) {
if ($scope.shipment[input]) {
isRequired = false;
return false;
}
});
return isRequired;
};
You apply that method to a data-ng-required in each of the inputs...
<form name="myForm" action="#sent" method="post" ng-app>
<input name="userPreference1" type="text" ng-model="shipment.userPreference1" ng-required="requiredInputsGroup()" />
<input name="userPreference2" type="text" ng-model="shipment.userPreference2" ng-required="requiredInputsGroup()" />
<input name="userPreference3" type="text" ng-model="shipment.userPreference3" ng-required="requiredInputsGroup()" />
<button type="submit" ng-disabled="myForm.$invalid">Submit</button>
</form>
And the last bit I applied was to make the button disabled with a simple myForm.$invalid
After my test,
The first way to write
<form name="form" >
<input type="text" id="tx1" value="123"><br>
</form>
<script>
alert(form.tx1.value);
</script>
The second way to write
<form id="form" >
<input type="text" id="tx1" value="123"><br>
</form>
<script>
alert(form.tx1.value);
</script>
The third way to write
<form id="form" >
<input type="text" id="tx1" value="123"><br>
</form>
<script>
alert(form.elements['tx1'].value);
</script>
The forth way to write
<form id="form" >
<input type="text" name="tx1" value="123"><br>
</form>
<script>
alert(form.elements['tx1'].value);
</script>
........
Permutations and combinations are many, pay attention to the form's id, name and input the id, the name, combined with the wording of the js, no matter how you write, are no problem. .
There is no standard at all. . . .
Actually, there is a standard: http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-DOM-Level-2-HTML-20030109/html.html#ID-40002357
On top of the standard, most browsers implement additional features.
The safest way to refer to form elements through a named collection is:
<form name="formname">
<input type="text" name="tx1" value="123">
</form>
<script>
alert(document.forms['formname'].elements['tx1'].value);
</script>
document.forms is a HTMLCollection of <form> elements. In each of these form, the elements property is a collection of all form input elements. All elements have to be referred by name.
What about this?
<form id="form" >
<input type="text" id="tx1" value="123"><br/>
</form>
<script>
alert(tx1.value);
</script>
HTML:
I want to pass the value from the gsearch to the q parameter. The following is the ways I make but it couldn't work. How should I do it?
action="http://test.com/search.php?q=<script type="text/javascript">document.getElementById('gsearch').value;</script>">
updated:
in my site. i want to make a google custom search: so i put the following code in the homepage. 0156290304977:8texhu0mrk the google search value. gsearch.php page which i put the google custom search code in and show the searched result
<form method="get" action="http://test.com/gsearch.php?cx=0156290304977:8texhu0mrk&cof=FORID:11&ie=UTF-8&q=..." >
<input type="text" title="" value="" name="q" class="search-input" id="gsearch" />
<input type="submit" value="" name="sa" id="search-button"/>
</form>
now, i want to when the user input the searched text in the gsearch text box, if he click the submit button,. then on the gsearch.php page shows the searched result.
if you want to submit to this: http://test.com/search.php?q=theinput
just do this:
<form target="_top" method="get" action="http://www.cnn.com/search.php" >
<input type="text" title="" value="theinput" name="q" class="search-input" id="gsearch" />
<input type="submit" value="submit" id="search-button"/>
</form>
the entire idea behind the <form> element is that it is making sure that all of the inputs from the user will be sent to the action.
the form will take the input from the q and add it to the action automatically.
so in your simple case. no manipulation is required.
Test it here
http://jsfiddle.net/L4rHG/1/
this will be submitted to http://edition.cnn.com/search.php?q=theinput
Or you need over javascritpt
<script>
function SubmitForm(){
window.open("http://test.com/search.php?q="+document.getElementById('gsearch').value)
return false;
}
</script>
<form method="get" action="http://test.com/search.php" onSubmit="SubmitForm();false" >
<input type="text" title="" value="" name="q" class="search-input" id="gsearch" />
<input type="submit" value="" name="sa" id="search-button"/>
</form>
<form action="http://test.com/search.php?q=">
<script>
document.forms[0].action += 'new_action.html';
</script>
I'm currently working on a basic form. When you hit the submit button, it should first change the value of a field, and then submit the form as usual. It all looks a bit like this:
<form name="myform" id="myform" action="action.php">
<input type="hidden" name="myinput" value="0" />
<input type="text" name="message" value="" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" onclick="DoSubmit()" />
</form>
And this is how far I've come with the JavaScript code. It changes "myinput"'s value to 1, but it does not submit the form.
function DoSubmit(){
document.myform.myinput.value = '1';
document.getElementById("myform").submit();
}
You could do something like this instead:
<form name="myform" action="action.php" onsubmit="DoSubmit();">
<input type="hidden" name="myinput" value="0" />
<input type="text" name="message" value="" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" />
</form>
And then modify your DoSubmit function to just return true, indicating that "it's OK, now you can submit the form" to the browser:
function DoSubmit(){
document.myform.myinput.value = '1';
return true;
}
I'd also be wary of using onclick events on a submit button; the order of events isn't immediately obvious, and your callback won't get called if the user submits by, for example, hitting return in a textbox.
document.getElementById("myform").submit();
This won't work as your form tag doesn't have an id.
Change it like this and it should work:
<form name="myform" id="myform" action="action.php">
Here is simple code. You must set an id for your input. Here call it 'myInput':
var myform = document.getElementById('myform');
myform.onsubmit = function(){
document.getElementById('myInput').value = '1';
myform.submit();
};
No. When your input type is submit, you should have an onsubmit event declared in the markup and then do the changes you want. Meaning, have an onsubmit defined in your form tag.
Otherwise change the input type to a button and then define an onclick event for that button.
You're trying to access an element based on the name attribute which works for postbacks to the server, but JavaScript responds to the id attribute. Add an id with the same value as name and all should work fine.
<form name="myform" id="myform" action="action.php">
<input type="hidden" name="myinput" id="myinput" value="0" />
<input type="text" name="message" id="message" value="" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" onclick="DoSubmit()" />
</form>
function DoSubmit(){
document.getElementById("myinput").value = '1';
return true;
}
My problem turned out to be that I was assigning as document.getElementById("myinput").Value = '1';
Notice the capital V in Value? Once I changed it to small case, i.e., value, the data started posting. Odd as it was not giving any JavaScript errors either.
I have done this and it works for me.
At first you must add a script such as my SetHolderParent() and call in the html code like below.
function SetHolderParent(value) {
alert(value);
}
<input type="submit" value="Submit" onclick="SetHolderParent(222);" />
You can use the onchange event:
<form name="myform" id="myform" action="action.php">
<input type="hidden" name="myinput" value="0" onchange="this.form.submit()"/>
<input type="text" name="message" value="" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" onclick="DoSubmit()" />
</form>
This might help you.
Your HTML
<form id="myform" action="action.php">
<input type="hidden" name="myinput" value="0" />
<input type="text" name="message" value="" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" onclick="save()" />
</form>
Your Script
<script>
function save(){
$('#myinput').val('1');
$('#form').submit();
}
</script>
I'm using the jQuery .serialize function and can't get it to serialize the proper form on submit.
my js code:
function getquerystring(form) {
return $("form").serialize();
}
my forms:
<div class="leave_message_box">
<form name="leave_message_form">
<input type="text" name="clock_code" placeholder="Clock Code" />
<input type="text" name="message" placeholder="Message (Blank for none)"/>
<input type="hidden" name="type" value="leave_message" />
<input value="Leave Message" type="button" onclick='JavaScript:xmlhttpPost("clockin.php", "leave_message_form")'></p>
</form>
</div>
<div class="outside_job_box">
<form name="outside_job_form">
<input type="text" name="clock_code" placeholder="Clock Code" />
<input type="text" name="message" placeholder="Message (Blank for none)"/>
<input type="hidden" name="type" value="ouside_job" />
<input value="Outside Job" type="button" onclick='JavaScript:xmlhttpPost("clockin.php", "outside_job_form")'></p>
</form>
</div>
I must be doing something wrong in passing the variable. the full code # pastie. The function I have does work, however, its always the last form that gets submitted.
Using this code:
$("form")
will find all the <form> elements in your document.
Given that form is a string containing the name of the form, what you want instead is this:
$("form[name='" + form + "']")
Looking at your supplied code, I have this suggestion. Instead of passing the form name to your function, why not just pass the form itself?
<button onclick="xmlhttpPost('blah', this.form)">
You also don't need to put javascript: in the onclick, onfocus, onwhatever properties.
I would suggest putting an ID attribute on the form and then using that ID as an explicit selector for jQuery:
<div class="outside_job_box">
<form id="outside_job_form" name="outside_job_form">
<input type="text" name="clock_code" placeholder="Clock Code" />
<input type="text" name="message" placeholder="Message (Blank for none)"/>
<input type="hidden" name="type" value="ouside_job" />
<input value="Outside Job" type="button" onclick='JavaScript:xmlhttpPost("clockin.php", "outside_job_form")'></p>
</form>
</div>
Then you would select and serialize it like this;
var f = $("#outside_job_form").serialize();
Not only making your code more effecient but more readable, in my opinion.
If the sole purpose is to encode simple text into URL format then use encodeURIComponent().
