I have a text field that should be filled before custom saving through HTML custom button.
When a user fills this field and tries to save through custom button, the text inside this field is null even if the user fills it.
Any suggestions Please?
Many Thanks for replying to my query. Actually, I am calling the below function from custom HTML button and I saw the result from alert message as NULL value until I leave the text box. Once I click some other Field then I am getting right value and saving the record successfully. I have posted my code below please have a look and suggest me how I can achieve it. So how to get the text value if a user doesn't leave the text box and click on the Save button?
function createRecord() {
var oDescription = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_description").getValue();
if (oDescription != null) {
var callentity = {};
var activityId;
var currentUserId = Xrm.Page.context.getUserId();
var oLeadId = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("new_lead").getValue()[0].id;
callentity.Subject = "Call Activity";
callentity.Description = oDescription ;
XrmSvcToolkit.createRecord({....Some more functions here...
})
}
HTML Button code for calling above function
<input id="SaveCall" onclick="parent.createRecord()" type="button" value="Save Phonecall"></p>
Xrm.Page.getAttribute(arg).getValue(val) won't return a value until focus is lost from the arg attribute (as you've found out).
Some options you could try:
document.getElementById('new_description_i')[0].value
Removing focus from "new_description" on click of your button.

I have an HTML input box and want to use jQuery to get the value of user input as it is entered, however the DOM seems to be activated upon page load and it never takes the value of the input box as the user types it in. I'm new to this and can't figure out what I'm doing incorrectly, any ideas would be appreciated!
<input id="textFilter" type="text">
function addEventHandlerForSearch() { //Javascript Handler
$('#textFilter').val();
$('#searchText').text($('#textFilter').val());
let searchVal = $('#searchText').text();
$(document).ready(function() { // DOM
$('#textFilter').keypress(addEventHandlerForSearch());
loadSavedRunkeeperTweets().then(parseTweets);
});
Simple vanilla implementation to get the value of the text box as it is typed would be:
const input = document.getElementById('textFilter');
input.onkeyup = () => {
console.log(input.value)
}
Then you could do whatever you need to with that data. If jquery is a requirement, I apologize for not including that in my answer. Not my area of expertise lol.
I want to disable the save button until all the fields are valid and not to enable if any one field border turns red. The jsp is included with more jsp's and I am finding it difficult to get the form/div into my java script function
I am triying to get the form/div id dynamically using the jquery but in the JavaScript it fails to the id of the form
onkeyup="checkFieldWithRegExp(jQuery('#SUM-03-inputnumberOfChildren'), jQuery('#teleNumeric'), jQuery('#FO-E012-tableShowMarketingConsent'));
function checkFieldWithRegExp(valueField, regExpField, formIdField) {
var regExp = regExpField.val();
var regNumber = valueField.val();
var formIdValue = $('#formIdField input:not(.hilightBorder)').length();
if (regExp !== null && !new RegExp(regExp).test(regNumber)) {
valueField.addClass('hilightBorder');
valueField.removeClass('hilightGreenBorder')
$('SUM00bSaveButton').disabled=false;
} else if(regExp !== null && new RegExp(regExp).test(regNumber)){
valueField.addClass('hilightGreenBorder');
valueField.removeClass('hilightBorder');
if(formIdValue){
$('SUM00bSaveButton').disabled=false;
}
} else {
valueField.removeClass('hilightBorder');
}
}
I expect to disable the save when page loads and if any of the fields have red border which user input is wrong. Can I please get some help
I believe you are approaching the problem wrong.
From my understanding of what you are trying to do, you are enabling a button once the form input is valid. (correct me if i'm wrong)
You should being writing a function in the background to check and validate the the input data that the user is filling out. If all the data is valid, then enable the button. If not valid, disable it.
You can run this function every time there is an "onKeyUp" event that is attached to each form input element.
I have an MVC (Razor) web app. The form has 2 fields, one dropdown box (Kendo) and one input field for a date.
After the user makes a change on the dropdown, my 2nd input field is enabled or disabled based on the chosen type in the dropdown box. When the input field is disabled I fill the input with a default value.
When the user submits the form, I only get 2nd form field value posted in the viewmodel when the 2nd field is enabled, when disabled the value is not posted. I know this a common pattern in HTML, that disabled fields are not part of the POST.
My question: how can I solve this issue to get the value POSTed when the field is disabled ? It should be done in JS...
I had a similar requirement, what i did was, created a class , which would make the text box appear like disabled, by removing mouse events and styling a bit
[https://codepen.io/DawsonMediaD/pen/Dqrck][1]
or
Bit tricky, just before the post , enable all of them
Fixed it, in the onchange handler of the dropdown box attach this JS code:
var defaultDateValue = "2017-01-04"; //just for demo
var $effectiveToInput = $("##Html.IdFor(m => m.EffectiveToDate)");
$effectiveToInput.parent().append("<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"#Html.NameFor(m => m.EffectiveToDate)\" id=\"#Html.NameFor(m => m.EffectiveToDate)\" value=\"" + defaultDateValue +"\" />");
And for the other types, i clear the hidden fields with checks:
function removeHiddenEffectiveToDateField() {
var $effectiveToInput = $("##(Html.IdFor(m => m.EffectiveToDate))[type = hidden]");
if (null !== $effectiveToInput) {
$effectiveToInput.remove();
}
}
I have an AJAX callback:
HTML:
<a onCLick="loadXMLDoc(id1,id2)">(Add)</a>
This calls an AJAX function that calls back a basic html input field in place of the above "(Add)"
onChange in this input field performs another AJAX callback that loads user input into a database.
What I am trying to do is once the field is filled out (or not filled out) and the field is blurred, it either goes back to the original or the newly updated value (but not any longer an input field).
I have searched around for a while and have come up with nothing. I am also new to javascript and AJAX. If it helps, I am using PHP mainly in this application.
Thanks
ADDITION
This is what I am trying to achieve:
The page lists different entries in table format.
There is a specific field that either has an id (stored in the database), or if field is null (in database) that field will display a button to add the id.
When pressed, the button calls a function which calls back an input field, the this replaces the previous "add" button. The AJAX callback places the input field in place of the "add" button.
This is where I need the help: After the user inputs the ID (or decides not to) and once the field no longer has focus, it changes from an input field back to what it was or the newly enter id. I am trying to do all this without refreshing the page.
I still don't follow exactly, but hopefully this will show you a means of creating/changing DOM elements in response to events like you've mentioned:
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#container").on("blur", ".name", function(e) {
var val = $(this).val();
if (!val) {
$(this).closest(".row").html("<button class='add'>Add</button>");
} else {
$(this).closest(".row").html("<span class='label'>Name: </span><span>" + val + "</span>");
}
});
$("#container").on("click", ".add", function(e) {
var html = "<span class='label'>New Name: </span><input class='name' type='text' />";
var row = $(this).closest(".row").html(html);
row.find("input").focus();
});
});
Working demo: http://jsfiddle.net/jfriend00/01ajd0y9/
Here's the function that checks if the form is complete.
So, what I'm trying to do:
If radio is not selected, throw a message.
If radio is "yes", but text is not entered, throw error.
If radio is "no" but text is entered, make the text empty.
If all is good, add stuff into `allResponses
The form was displayed 5 times, and input was as follows:
Yes a1
No
Yes a3
No
Yes
Now, this input should display an error since in 5th case, "yes" is selected but nothing is entered in the textbox.
However, I get this:

Also, the text is not being updated as in 1st and 3rd cases.
I don't know a lot about JS, so please provide me with as explained responses as you can.

You have this in a loop:
var exaggerationPart = document.getElementById('exaggeration').value
And then you check to make sure it has a value for each item. But you will get the same value each time.
You are creating multiple inputs with the same id, "exaggeration". This is invalid HTML. Id's must be unique. To correct this, you can increment the id the same as you are doing with other elements (such as, input[name='response"+thisJokeIndex+"']).
var exaggerationPart = document.getElementById('exaggeration' + thisJokeIndex).value
tipTD2.append("<input type='text' name='exaggeration' id='exaggeration" + tipIndex + "' size='70'>")
Working demo: jsfiddle.net/svvge/2
Edit: To clear the value of the text box, you must change the value property of the text box element. Right now you are just changing the value of a variable.
var exaggerationInput = document.getElementById('exaggeration' + thisJokeIndex).value;
var exaggerationPart = exaggerationInput.value;
exaggerationInput.value = '';
