How to take content from a div class one by one and then load it into array? Then I need to insert these one by one to some other div class.
Basically, I have 2 forms, one of which is dummy and this dummy gets its content from CMS. The dummy form is hidden, while real form is shown, but empty at first.
I need to use jquery to take dummy text from form and insert it to real form.
Something like this:
<form name="real" method="post" action="">
<input type="text" name="first" id="a"/>
<input type="text" name="second" id="b"/>
<input type="text" name="third" id="c"/>
<input type="text" name="fourth" id="d"/>
<input type="submit" value="submit"/>
</form>
<form name="extract" style="display:none;">
<div class="generic">data_1</div>
<div class="generic">data_2</div>
<div class="generic">data_3</div>
<div class="generic">data_4</div>
</form>
must become something like this:
<form name="real" method="post" action="">
data_1 <input type="text" name="first" id="a"/>
data_2 <input type="text" name="second" id="b"/>
data_3 <input type="text" name="third" id="c"/>
data_4 <input type="text" name="fourth" id="d"/>
<input type="submit" value="submit"/>
</form>
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks!
There are many ways to do this. For example:
$('[name=extract] div').each(function(index){
$('[name=real] input:eq('+index+')').before($(this).text());
});

I'll offer this version:
$('.generic').each(
function(i){
$('input:text').eq(i).val($(this).text());
});

I'll start this off by saying I use JS very infrequently, so this is likely a simple mistake. I came across the need to generate a form on the spot when a button is pressed. After some searching, I decided on using the append function from jQuery. Here is the code I wrote:
function replyToComment(commentId) {
var element = document.getElementById("reply-form");
if (element != null) {
element.remove()
}
const html = `
<div id="reply-form">
<label for="comment-form">Comment:</label>
<form method="post" id="comment-form" style="padding-bottom: 10px;">
<input type="hidden" name="csrfmiddlewaretoken" value="${csrf_token}"
<div class="form-group">
<div>
<textarea type="text" name="body" maxlength="1500" class="textarea form-control" cols="40" rows="10"></textarea>
</div>
</div>
<input type="text" name="comment-send" style="display:none;" readonly>
<input type="text" name="comment_id" value=${commentId} style="display:none;" readonly>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success">Send</button>
</form>
</div>`
$(`#${commentId}`).append(html)
}
When inspecting the final result, the argument passed into the append function is out of order:
I am not sure if the image will load in properly, but if it doesnt, its mostly irrelevant. Am I misusing the append function? Is there another way to do this that will handle the data I want to pass in properly?
It appears that you're neglecting to close one of your input tags.
You have:
<input type="hidden" name="csrfmiddlewaretoken" value="${csrf_token}"
This should be:
<input type="hidden" name="csrfmiddlewaretoken" value="${csrf_token}" />
I have a form field with the last name and want to generate a customer ID starting with the first two characters from their last name in caps and add a random number to it. So I need the other field which dynamically updates with only the first two characters in uppercase. This is what I have so far:
HTML:
<form action="#" id="form_field">
<input type="text" id="textfield1" value="" onKeyUp="document.getElementById('textfield2').value=this.value">
<input type="text" id="textfield2" value="">
</form>
JAVASCRIPT:
document.getElementById('textfield2').setAttribute('maxlength',2)
You can get the two first characters from your input and put them in the second with javascript :
<form action="#" id="form_field">
<input type="text" id="textfield1" value="" onKeyUp="document.getElementById('textfield2').value=this.value.substr(0,2).toUppercase()">
<input type="text" id="textfield2" value="">
</form>
I am not sure but I think that the javascript code don't care about the attribut "maxlength". Futhermore, you need use toUpperCase in order to have your result.
<form action="#" id="form_field">
<input type="text" id="textfield1" value="" onKeyUp="txt(this.value)">
<input type="text" id="textfield2" value="">
</form>
<script>
function txt(value) {
document.getElementById('textfield2').value = value.substr(0,2).toUpperCase();
}
</script>
hope it works
I have a form and I can dynamically add more lines but if I try to remove a specific line it does not work, however the first line gets removed with no problem.
Here is the html:
<form class="order-form">
<div class="product-lines">
<!-- Product Line Section -->
<div class="product-line">
<img alt="remove" src="img/close.png" />
<input class="input-text" name="product-code" type="text" placeholder="Product Code" ></input>
<input class="input-text" name="product-quantity" type="text" placeholder="Quantity"></input>
<input class="input-text" name="product-discript" type="text" placeholder="Discription of Product"></input>
<label class="label-sign">£</label>
<input class="input-text" name="product-price" type="text" placeholder="RRP Price"></input>
<br>
</div>
</div>
<div id="product-btn">
<input name="btn-add-line" type="button" value="Add new line"></input>
<input name="btn-update" type="button" value="Update"></input>
<input name="btn-submit" type="submit" value="Submit Order"></input>
<label class="label-sign">£</label>
<input class="input-text" name="order-info" type="text" placeholder="Order total" ></input>
</div>
</form>
The jQuery code I have tried:
$(".btn-close").on("click", function(e){
$(e.currentTarget).parent().remove();
});
I've also Tried
$(e.currentTarget).parents("div.product-lines).next("div.product-line).remove();
Any help would be most appreciated, also a explanation would be very helpful for me to learn.
Try something like
$(".product-lines").on("click", ".btn-close", function(e){
$(e.currentTarget).parent().remove();
});
You cannot attach events to objects that are not currently on page (lines).
You have to attach click event on product-lines object and when it is clicked you delegate event to "closest" product-line object!
You will need to changed the jQuery slightly to allow for Event Delegation. This means all elements added in future will get the event attached to them too.
$(document).on("click", ".btn-close", function(e){
$(e.currentTarget).parent().remove();
});
$('body').on('click','button id/class',function(){
$(e.currentTarget).parent().remove();
});
but if u use this code it will remove <div class="product-line">...</div>
why you want to remove this div.
i dont get your question very well. Explain in details and step by step .
Please help!
I have some form elements in a div on a page:
<div id="box">
<div id="template">
<div>
<label for="username">Username</label>
<input type="text" class="username" name="username[]" value="" / >
<label for="hostname">hostname</label>
<input type="text" name="hostname[]" value="">
</div>
</div>
</div>
using jquery I would like to take a copy of #template, manipulate the values of the inputs and insert it after #template so the result would look something like:
<div id="box">
<div id="template">
<div>
<label for="username">Username</label>
<input type="text" class="username" name="username[]" value="" / >
<label for="hostname">hostname</label>
<input type="text" name="hostname[]" value="">
</div>
</div>
<div>
<label for="username">Username</label>
<input type="text" class="username" name="username[]" value="paul" / >
<label for="hostname">hostname</label>
<input type="text" name="hostname[]" value="paul">
</div>
</div>
I am probably going about this the wrong way but the following test bit of javascript code run in firebug on the page does not seem to change the values of the inputs.
var cp = $('#template').clone();
cp.children().children().each( function(i,d){
if( d.localName == 'INPUT' ){
$(d).val('paul'); //.css('background-color', 'red');
}
});
$("#box").append(cp.html());
although if I uncomment "//.css('background-color', 'red');" the inputs will turn red.
Why not just use a selector for input elements with the clone as root like so:
$( "input", cp ).val("paul");
instead of using the calls to children?
EDIT: It looks like as of jQuery 1.4, when you call clone, it should also copy the data of the elements instead of just the markup. That may solve your problem of having to copy over the values directly. Relevant piece of documentation (emphasis mine):
withDataAndEventsA Boolean indicating whether event handlers should be copied along with the elements. As of jQuery 1.4 element data will be copied as well.
I slightly modified your HTML by assigning a "hostname" class to the hostname input.
Here's the updated HTML:
<div id="box">
<div id="template">
<div>
<label for="username">Username</label>
<input type="text" class="username" name="username[]" value="" / >
<label for="hostname">hostname</label>
<input type="text" class="hostname" name="hostname[]" value="">
</div>
</div>
</div>
And here's a JS:
$(function() {
$('#template div:first').clone().appendTo("#box");
$('#box div:last .username').val("Paul");
$('#box div:last .hostname').val("google");
});
Also, you might want to take a look the jQuery Template proposal at http://wiki.github.com/nje/jquery/jquery-templates-proposal
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().
