I need to add a message box and e-mail textbox and display everything in my form in the msgresults tag

I need to add a message box and e-mail textbox and display everything in my form in the 'msgresults' tag.
I need to add a Message box and and e-mail text box. Then I need all information to be shown within the MsgResults tag. The radioboxes already are shown this way.
function validateForm(){
var name = document.getElementById("name").value;
var age = document.getElementById("age").value;
if (name == "" || name == null){
resultsMsg("We need your name please");
}else{
if(age == "" || name == null || isNaN(age)){
resultsMsg("Please enter a number for your age");
}else{
if(!getSkill()){
resultsMsg("Please select the type of problem you are having.");
}else{
resultsMsg("Type of Problem: " + getSkill());
}//end else
}// end function
}
}
function getSkill(){
var isChecked = false;
var theSelection;
var skills = document.getElementsByName('skillset');
for (var i=0; i < skills.length; i++){
if(skills[i].checked){
isChecked = true;
theSelection = skills[i].value;
break;
}
}
if(isChecked){
return theSelection;
}else{
return false;
} // end else
} // end function
function resultsMsg(s){
var resultsBox = document.getElementById("results");
resultsBox.innerHTML=s;
} // end function
<form name="form1" id="form1" action="" method="post">
<label>Full Name:
<input type="text" id="name" name="name">

<br> <!-- new line here -->
<label>Your Age:
<input type="text" id="age" name="age">

<br> <!-- new line here -->

<input type="radio" name="skillset" value="Hardware Malfunctions">Hardware Malfunctions</br>
<input type="radio" name="skillset" value="General Problems">General Problems</br>
<input type="button" value="Submit" onClick="validateForm();"> <input type="reset" value="Clear Form">
</form>
<div id="results"></div>

If I understand your goal correctly, you want to add the given name and age to the result-div, on top of the 'Type of Problem' that is already show. That can be easily achieved by adding the correct variables to the last else-loop in your validateForm function. Something among the following should probably work:
resultsMsg("Name: "+name+ "<br>Age: " +age+ "<br>Type of Problem: " + getSkill());

How to disable input fields on page load if a checkbox is not checked?

I want to disable all the user input fields in a form, if the 'Status Active' checkbox is unchecked. The target is to load the page with all the details but if the Status is not active then the checkbox will show as unchecked and the rest of the input fields will remain disabled, till the user checks the checkbox. He can then edit the data and save it.
However, if the record is active, then all the fields will be enabled for editing straight away.
I have already achieved this, but the only problem is even when the record is active, the input fields are getting disabled. Can anyone please point out where is the error in my code?
<script type='text/javascript'>
$(function(){
if($('#square').not(':checked')){
$('#prizename, #prizedesc, #comment').attr('disabled','disabled');
}
});
function checkDisable(){
var square = document.getElementById('square');
var prizename = document.getElementById('prizename');
var prizedesc = document.getElementById('prizedesc');
var comment = document.getElementById('comment');
if(square.checked){
prizename.disabled = false;
prizedesc.disabled = false;
comment.disabled = false;
}
if(!square.checked ){
prizename.disabled = true;
prizedesc.disabled = true;
comment.disabled = true;
}
}
</script>
<php codes here>
<div>

<td><div class="square">

</div>
<div class="button-section">

$('#square').not(':checked')
this condition is not satisfied because it will return the object. You have to check with length. Please check in your code.
if($('#square').not(':checked').length > 0)
Or
if(!$('#square').is(":checked"))

I have altered your code - Working from my side.
HTML: (Just insert your variables again)

<tr>
<td>Prize Status - Active:</td>

<div class="square">
<input type="checkbox" name="status" id="square" value="1">

<div class="button-section">

JS: (The first bit executes on page load and the second part is listening for the change event on the checkbox)
if($('#square').not(':checked').length > 0){

Disabling jquery submit button until all the form inputs is filled

Disabling jquery submit button until all the form inputs is filled.
Am working with Jquery and I have been trying to implement disabling form submission button until the whole form inputs are filled. i have tried most solution found here but it does not solve the issue. Thanks
$('.postbtn_video').click(function() {
var element = $(this);
var ID = element.attr('id');
var msg = $('#status').val();
var title = $('#title').val();
var video = $('#video').val();
var stat = $('#stat').val();
if (title == "") {
alert('Please Enter video Post Title?');
} else if (msg == "") {
alert('Please Enter Video Post Description');
} else if (video == "") {
alert('Enter Youtube Video Link');
} else if (stat == "") {
alert('Select Status');
} else {
var postData = "post=" + msg + "&title=" + title + "&video=" + video + "&stat=" + stat;

<form action="" method="post" name="statusform">
<label>Video Post Title </label>
<input type="text" name="title" id="title" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter Post Title">
<p></p>
<label>Video Post Description</label>
<textarea style="width:100%" name="status" class="status form-control" id="status" placeholder="Share what you like " title="What's on your mind?">
</textarea>
<label>Youtube Video Link</label>
<input style="width:100%" name="video" class="form-control" id="video" placeholder="Youtube Video Link">

</select>
<p></p>
<input name="post" type="submit" value="Share Video Updates" class="postbtn_video" style="background:black;color:white; height:30px;float:left" />
</form>

Firstly apply disabled="disabled" to the button:
<input name="post" type="submit" value="Share Video Updates" class="postbtn_video" disabled="disabled" />
Secondly, you need a function which will check each field is empty or not!
Check below code:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('form > input').keyup(function() {
var empty = false;
$('form > input').each(function() {
if(!empty){ // this will only check next inputs if empty is false, but once its set to true no further check will be made
if ($(this).val() == '') {
empty = true;
}
}
});
if (empty) {
$('.postbtn_video').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
} else {
$('.postbtn_video').removeAttr('disabled');
}
});
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form action="" method="post" name="statusform">
<label>Video Post Title </label>
<input type="text" name="title" id="title" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter Post Title">
<p></p>
<label>Video Post Description</label>
<textarea style="width:100%" name="status" class="status form-control" id="status" placeholder="Share what you like " title="What's on your mind?"></textarea>
<label>Youtube Video Link</label>
<input style="width:100%" name="video" class="form-control" id="video" placeholder="Youtube Video Link">
<label>status</label>
<select style="width:100%" name="stat" class="form-control" id="stat">
<option value="ok">ok</option>
</select>
<p></p>
<input name="post" type="submit" value="Share Video Updates" class="postbtn_video" disabled="disabled" />
</form>

Maybe this will help. you can manipulated the Form Disabled attribute:
var checkboxes = document.getElementsByTagName('input');
//check all check all input elements to see if they are check-boxes
for (var i = 0; i < checkboxes.length; i++) {
//If the input is a check-box run script else skip over
if (checkboxes[i].type == 'checkbox') {
//If it is a check-box ensure the box is unchecked
checkboxes[i].checked = false;
}
}
$(document).ready(function()
{
//define Element by ID and create variable
var $checked = $('#field_human');
//define default state for attribute before handler function trigger
$("#submit").attr("disabled", !$checked.checked)
//On element handler trigger define function to execute each time handler is triggered
$checked.click(function()
{
//State to define instance on method
if ($checked.prop('checked'))
{
//return true
//remove element attribute state 'disabled'
$('#submit').removeAttr('disabled');
}
if($('#contactForm input').val() != '')
{
$('#submit').removeAttr('disabled');
}
else {
//return false
//set element attribute state 'disabled'
$("#submit").attr("disabled", !$checked.checked);
}
//return to ready-state to wait for handler to trigger again
return;
});
});

</form>

1st:
inputs that you think are required, make it required! like below:
<input style="width:100%" name="video" class="form-control" id="video" placeholder="Youtube Video Link" required >
2nd:
Make your selection based on this attribute and check if values of these inputs are not empty. Disable the submit button if so.
3rd:
Make event listener to all inputs that have required attribute to listen user inputs.
something like this:
var l = $("[required='']");
function enableSubmit(l) {
if (l.length == 0) {
$("[name=post]").removeAttr('disabled');
} else {
for (var m = 0; m < l.length; m++) {
if (l[m].value.length == 0) {
$("[name=post]").attr("disabled", "disabled");
return;
}
}
$("[name=post]").removeAttr('disabled');
}
}
for (var m = 0; m < l.length; m++) {
l[m].addEventListener('input', function () {
enableSubmit(l);
});
}

First of all you need to add a disabled property to you input button by default like:
<input disabled name="post" type="submit" value="Share Video Updates" class="postbtn_video" style="background:black;color:white; height:30px;float:left" />
then in your jquery you need fire up a validate function that will check for all the inputs and if they are not empty you can simply remove the disabled property from your input button like:
$(document).on('keyup', "input:not([type='submit']", function () {
//set it to true by default
var valid = true;
//getting all the inputs except input submit
var inputTextboxes = $("input:not([type='submit'])");
inputTextboxes.each(function(e) {
//it enters this only if the valid is true for any one value, if valid is set to false at any point it won't check it for next inputs - works for first time
if (valid != false){
if ($(this).val()) {
valid = true;
}else{
valid = false;
}
}
else{
break; //breaks the loop
}
});
if (valid) {
$("input[type=submit]").prop("disabled", false);
} else {
$("input[type=submit]").prop("disabled", true);
}
}
Hope this helps

Submit value of a checkbox through javascript

I am trying to submit values of a form through javascript it contains both text and two checkboxes.
<script>
function SubmitFormData2() {
var preffered_loc = $("#preffered_loc").val();
var relocation = $(".relocation").val();
$.post("r_two.php", { preffered_loc: preffered_loc,relocation: relocation },
function(data) {
$('#results').html(data);
$('#myForm2')[0].reset();
});
}
</script>
<form id="myForm2" method="post" style="margin-left: -10%;">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="preffered_loc" name="preffered_loc">
<input type="checkbox" name="relocation[]" class="relocation[]" value="Yes">
<input type="checkbox" name="relocation[]" class="relocation[]" value="No" >
<input type="button" id="submitFormData2" onclick="SubmitFormData2();" value="Submit" />
</form>
r_two.php
<?
$preffered_loc = $_POST['preffered_loc'];
$relocation = $_POST['relocation'];
?>
i am able to save the first value but i am not able to save relocation value, can anyone tell how i can save relocation. Important point here is that user can select both checkboxes also
The issue is that $relocation is picking only value yes even if i select 2nd selectbox. can anyone please correct my code

try this.
function SubmitFormData2() {
var preffered_loc = $("#preffered_loc").val();
var relocation = $("#relocation").is(":checked");
var relyn = "";
if(relocation){
relyn = "Yes";
}else{
relyn = "No";
}
$.post("r_two.php", { preffered_loc: preffered_loc,relocation: relyn },
function(data) {
$('#results').html(data);
$('#myForm2')[0].reset();
});
alert("{ preffered_loc: "+preffered_loc+",relocation: "+relyn+" }");
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="myForm2" method="post" style="margin-left: -10%;">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="preffered_loc" name="preffered_loc">
<input type="checkbox" name="relocation[]" id="relocation" />
<input type="button" id="submitFormData2" onclick="SubmitFormData2();" value="Submit" />
</form>
As Satpal said:
You don't need two checkbox, maybe you want a radio button, but one checkbox can be checked = yes, not checked = no. I removed one of them.
You don't have an ID relocation. I changed it.
With the jQuery is(":checked") you get a true or false so I parse it to a Yes or No, following your code.

Since its a checkbox and not a radio user can have multiple selections, for eg:
<input type="checkbox" name="relocation[]" class="relocation" value="Yes">
<input type="checkbox" name="relocation[]" class="relocation" value="No" >
<input type="checkbox" name="relocation[]" class="relocation" value="Both" >
try using the :checked selector,
$( ".relocation:checked" ).each(function(i,v){
alert(v.value)
});
Demo here

I think you should use class for the check-boxes instead of id, because id must be unique for each field. You should try this:
<form id="myForm2" method="post" style="margin-left: -10%;">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="preffered_loc" name="preffered_loc">
<input type="checkbox" name="relocation[]" class="relocation" value="Yes">
<input type="checkbox" name="relocation[]" class="relocation" value="No" >
<input type="button" id="submitFormData2" onclick="SubmitFormData2();" value="Submit" />
</form>
<script>
function SubmitFormData2() {
var preffered_loc = $("#preffered_loc").val();
var relocation = '';
var sap = '';
$( ".relocation" ).each(function() {
if($( this ).is(':checked')){
relocation = relocation+''+sap+''+$( this ).val();
sap = ',';
}
});
alert(rel);
$.post("r_two.php", { preffered_loc: preffered_loc,relocation: relocation },
function(data) {
$('#results').html(data);
$('#myForm2')[0].reset();
});
}
</script>

Here is a sample code for your reference
<form id="myForm" method="post">
Name: <input name="name" id="name" type="text" /><br />
Email: <input name="email" id="email" type="text" /><br />
Phone No:<input name="phone" id="phone" type="text" /><br />
Gender: <input name="gender" type="radio" value="male">Male
<input name="gender" type="radio" value="female">Female<br />
<input type="button" id="submitFormData" onclick="SubmitFormData();" value="Submit" />
</form>
function SubmitFormData() {
var name = $("#name").val();
var email = $("#email").val();
var phone = $("#phone").val();
var gender = $("input[type=radio]:checked").val();
$.post("submit.php", { name: name, email: email, phone: phone, gender: gender },
function(data) {
$('#results').html(data);
$('#myForm')[0].reset();
});
}

You couldn't select the checkbox elements at all because you weren't including the [] in the selector. You can either escape the brackets as described in this SO Q/A or simply remove the brackets (the example code below does the latter)
I'd suggest using radio buttons as the user can immediately see what the options are. (Have a third option for both)
The code below uses checkboxes and puts all selected options into an array that gets passed along. This will allow the user to use both options
<script>
function SubmitFormData2() {
var preffered_loc = $("#preffered_loc").val();
var relocation = [];
$(".relocation:checked").each(function () {
relocation.push ($this.vak ();
}); // :checked is provided by jquery and will only select a checkbox/radio button that is checked
$.post("r_two.php", { preffered_loc: preffered_loc,relocation: relocation },
function(data) {
$('#results').html(data);
$('#myForm2')[0].reset();
});
}
And don't forget to remove [] from the checkboxes class.

<script>
function SubmitFormData2() {
var preffered_loc = $("#preffered_loc").val();
var relocation = {};
$('.relocation').each(function(index) {
if ($(this).is(':checked')) {
relocation[index] = $(this).val();
}
});
relocation = JSON.stringify(relocation);
$.post("r_two.php", { preffered_loc: preffered_loc, relocation: relocation }, function(data) {
$('#results').html(data);
$('#myForm2')[0].reset();
});
}
</script>
Variable 'relocation' must be an object to contain multiple values, like you said a user can select both YES and NO. And change the checkbox class from relocation[] to relocation.

javascript validation

I have two radio buttons. Each one has one associated text box. If I click one radio button and then submit an alert box should be shown if the associated text box is empty. How can I achieve this?
<form action="#" name="form1" id="form1" method="post" onsubmit="return check_workorder()">
<input type="radio" name="click" id="click1" checked="checked" value="date"/>
<strong>Start Date
<input type="text" id="my_date_field" name="my_date_field" class="datepicker" style="width:80px;"/>
</strong>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
new Control.DatePicker('my_date_field', { icon: 'images/calendar.png' });
</script>
</br><br />
<input type="radio" name="click" id="click2" value="order" />
<strong>Work order no
<input type="text" name="workno" id="workno" style="width:100px;"/>
</strong><span class="submit">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit" onclick="return check_workorder()"/>
the javascript is
function check_workorder() {
if (document.forms.form1.elements.click.value == "date") {
var dat = (form1.my_date_field.value);
if (dat == "") {
alert("please select date");
return false;
}
} else if (document.forms.form1.elements.click.value == "order") {
var wor = (form1.workno.value);
if (wor == "") {
alert("please enter work order no");
return false;
}
}
}

if (document.forms.form1.elements.click.value == "date") {
if (document.forms.form1.elements.click.checked) {
//the radio button is checked
}
}
