Good day! I want to create a modal that pops-up when the user clicks the submit button only if the form is valid just like this. The form validation works perfectly after click but when the form is valid, nothing happens to the form and the modal doesn't pop-up.
I have tried the solutions in here such as
$('#myModal').modal("show");
$('#myModal').dialog('open');
$('#myModal').modal();
$('#myModal').show();
$('#myModal').modal('toggle');
but still not popping up.

Thanks in advance.
If your form is valid save this information in any TempData and check this var on form load if data flag is exist then show your modal.
Add TempData in control post action.
TempData[“modalValid”]=true;
On form load using JavaScript.
$(document)ready(function (){
If(#TempData[“modalValid””]==true)
//display your modal
//set null in TempData
});
This code is not tested this is only for your reference.
UPDATE
After running into this post. I was able to make the code also work. Unfortunately, it was the class that was causing me error. As soon as I removed it, my code also worked. Thanks for the help.
The e.preventDefault() call is preventing the submit every time. Even when the form is valid. Try using a flag "confirmed" to make sure the e.preventDefault() is only called before the modal has been shown.
var confirmed = false;
function SubmitConfirmfunction() {
confirmed = false;
$("#contactForm").submit();
}
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#contactForm').submit(function (e) {
if (confirmed == false) {
if ($(this).valid()) {
confirmed = true;
e.preventDefault();
$('#myModal').modal("show");
}
}
});
});

I have a problem wherein when a form is submitted, it should trigger a modal when it is valid and if it is not valid, it should trigger the validation script. I have tried looking for answers in the forum and came across one problem that resembles mine. But unfortunately, the modal still doesn't pop-up.
What I wanted to happen was when a user clicks the submit button, a validation will run and if all data is valid, it will trigger the modal to pop-up and if invalid, the validation will occur just like here.

UPDATE
After modifying the script, what happens is that the form cannot be clicked. I think the modal is being triggered but no modal is showing. Here is the output:

Until I came across this, I tried removing the fade command in class and now the modal is showing. I am currently using Bootstrap v3.0.0 and the fade command has a bug in here. Thanks for your support guys!
When I submit the form I want to fire-up the Javascript method written below. This JS method will send a POST request to the backend. However, in the code written below this JS method is not being fired. Can someone please help me how to correct this ?
#using (Html.BeginForm(null, null, FormMethod.Post, new { #class = "form-horizontal", onsubmit = "submitdata" }))
{
#Html.AntiForgeryToken()
#Html.ValidationSummary()
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(m => m.EMAIL, new { #class = "col-md-2 control-label" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.email, new {id ="Email", #class = "form-control" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(m => m.pwd, new { #class = "col-md-2 control-label" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.PasswordFor(m => m.pwd, new {id="pwd", #class = "form-control" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(m => m.ConfirmPassword, new { #class = "col-md-2 control-label" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.PasswordFor(m => m.ConfirmPassword, new { #class = "form-control" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-offset-2 col-md-10">
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-default" value="Register" onsubmit="submitdata"/>
</div>
</div>
}
Javascript
function submitdata() {
var pwd = document.getElementById("pwd");
var email = document.getElementById("email");
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: '/Account/Reg',
data: {
email: email,
password: pwd
},
success: function (response) {
$('#success__para').html("You data will be saved");
}
});
return false;
}
You miss () in your onsubmit attribute;
onsubmit = "submitdata()"
As Vostrugin mentioned in his answer, you are missing () in the method call.
Here is the unobtrusive javascript way (using jQuery)
function submitdata() {
// your existing code
}
$(function(){
$("form").submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
submitData();
});
});
If you want to wire it with a specific button click, use a jQuery selector to get the button and bind the click event.
<input type="submit" id="myButton" value="Register"/>
and
$(function(){
$("#myButton").click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
submitData();
});
});
With this approach, you should remove the onsubmit event from your UI markup.
My example form:
#using (#Html.BeginForm())
{
#Html.AntiForgeryToken()
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.Server)
#Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Server, new { #class = "form-control", id = "serverTextbox" })
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.Username)
#Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.Username, Enumerable.Empty<SelectListItem>(), new { #class = "form-control", id = "usersCombo" })
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.Password)
#Html.PasswordFor(model => model.Password, new { #class = "form-control" })
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.Database)
#Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.Database, Enumerable.Empty<SelectListItem>(), new { #class = "form-control", id = "databaseCombo" })
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.Company)
#Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.Company, Enumerable.Empty<SelectListItem>(), new { #class = "form-control", id = "companyCombo" })
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<input type="submit" id="LogOn" value="Log In" class="btn btn-default" />
</div>
<div>
#Html.ValidationSummary(true)
</div>
}
So when a user changes their server entry (first input), I'm looking to implement an .change() event listener (i think), to clear the other dependant forms (drop down & input) without the use of an actual reset button.
Any help is appreciated
You can use form reset like this
$('input .form-control').on('change',function()
{
$("#form")[0].reset();
})
You can also write your custom implementation which will explicitly reset the values like
function clearForms()
{
JQuery(".form-control").attr('value',' ');
//do this for all controls and call this function
}
Options presented so far will also erase the server value, which I supose is not desirable.
A better option, not jQuery dependant, would probably be:
var serverInput = document.getElementById("serverTextbox");
var form = document.getElementsByTagName("form")[0];
serverInput.addEventListener("change", function() {
var temp = this.value;
form.reset();
this.value = temp;
});
In MVC 5,
I have a Dialog for editing.
The Content area is created from a Partial view.
If I have the submit button inside the form in the Partial view it works. But I would like the Save button to be at the button of the Dialog and hence outside the form and Partial view.
The problem is now that the forms data doesn't get posted. How would you fix this?
I have two ideas:
1) Wrap the form outside the Partial view
2) Make a AJAX request and not use the helper, and collect the data from the form somehow? Doesn't feel like the right way.
Dialog:
<div id="myModal" class="modal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close"><span aria-hidden="true">×</span></button>
<h4 class="modal-title" id="myModalLabel">Edit database connection</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
#{ Html.RenderPartial("View"); }
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button id="saveBtnSettings" type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Save</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Dialog javascript
var saveSettings = function () {
var url = buildUrl("Edit", "Setting");
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: url
})
.done(function (data, textStatus, jqXhr) {
alert('done' + data);
})
.fail(function (jqXhr, textStatus, errorThrown) {
alert(textStatus.toUpperCase() + ": " + errorThrown + 'Could not load html. ');
});
};
Partial view
#using (Ajax.BeginForm("Edit", "Setting", new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "div" }))
{
<fieldset>
#Html.AntiForgeryToken()
<div class="form-horizontal">
#Html.ValidationSummary(true, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.User, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.User, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control" } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.User, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.DataSource, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.DataSource, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control" } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.DataSource, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
</div>
</fieldset>
}
Partial view - Works with button inside of the form
#using (Ajax.BeginForm("Edit", "Setting", new AjaxOptions { UpdateTargetId = "div" }))
{
<fieldset>
#Html.AntiForgeryToken()
<div class="form-horizontal">
#Html.ValidationSummary(true, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.User, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.User, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control" } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.User, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.DataSource, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.DataSource, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control" } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.DataSource, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<p>
<input type="submit" value="Calculate" /> #* WORKS WITH BUTTON INSIDE OF FORM *#
</p>
</div>
</fieldset>
}
You can place a submit button outside the form tags by specifying the form attribute (HTML5 only)
<form .... id="editform">
....
</form>
<input type="submit" form="editform" />
Note if the submit button has a value attribute, it won't be posted back.
Another option may be to use css to position it.
Just submit the form using Javascript:
function SubmitMyForm(){
document.getElementById("myForm").submit();
}
HTML:
<input type="button" value="Calculate" onclick="SubmitMyForm()" />
I think you're looking for: document.myform.submit();
Here is a Fiddle adapted form of code from this page.
To submit form below I have to click <input type="submit" value="Save" /> which is at the bottom of form pasted below:
#model WebApplication2.Models.Person
#using (Html.BeginForm()) {
#Html.AntiForgeryToken()
<div class="form-horizontal">
<hr />
#Html.ValidationSummary(true, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
#Html.HiddenFor(model => model.Id)
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.FirstName, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.FirstName, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control" } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.FirstName, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-offset-0 col-md-10">
<input type="submit" value="Save" class="btn btn-success" style="width: 200px; font-weight: bold;" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
}
This causes invoking POST Edit method in PersonController:
[HttpPost]
[ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
public ActionResult Edit([Bind(Include = "Id,FirstName")] Person person) {
if (ModelState.IsValid) {
db.Entry(person).State = EntityState.Modified;
db.SaveChanges();
return RedirectToAction("Index");
}
return View(person);
}
I also would like to have a JavaScript function which does the same( when I invoke this function) but does not redirects me to any view. Just invokes POST Edit and passes contents of the form above.
Question: How to write JavaScript function which submits the form above without redirecting me anywhere?
function SubmitForm() {}
EDIT
I tried this.
The JavaScript method is invoked when I click #Html.ActionLink("Add a Report", "Create", "Reports", new { personId = Model.Id }, new { onclick = "SubmitForm()" }) (alert is displayed) but form is not submited(standard submit button works, so it is JavaScript function fault).
Form:
#using (Html.BeginForm(null, null, FormMethod.Post, new { name="myForm", id = "myForm" })) {
#Html.AntiForgeryToken()
<div class="form-horizontal">
<hr />
#Html.ValidationSummary(true, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
#Html.HiddenFor(model => model.Id)
<div class="form-group">
#Html.LabelFor(model => model.FirstName, htmlAttributes: new { #class = "control-label col-md-2" })
<div class="col-md-10">
#Html.EditorFor(model => model.FirstName, new { htmlAttributes = new { #class = "form-control" } })
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.FirstName, "", new { #class = "text-danger" })
</div>
</div>
<p> #Html.ActionLink("Add a Report", "Create", "Reports", new { personId = Model.Id }, new { onclick = "SubmitForm()" })</p>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-md-offset-0 col-md-10">
<input type="submit" value="Save" class="btn btn-success" style="width: 200px; font-weight: bold;" />
</div>
</div>
</div>
}
and the function:
function SubmitForm() {
alert("IS INVOKED");
$("#myForm").submit();
}
Easiest way I have found. :
$("#myForm").submit();

You also need to name your form. In this instance myFrom is the id of your form. Something like. :
Html.BeginForm(null, null, FormMethod.Get, new { name = "myForm", id = "myForm" })
