I have the following example files:
index.html
<body>
<input type="file" name="image" onchange="handleUpload()">
<script>
function handleUpload() {
window.location = 'aa.html';
}
</script>
</body>
aa.html
<body>
success
</body>
After file upload I'm redirected to another page.
When I hit browser back button I get Uncaught ReferenceError: handleUpload is not defined at HTMLInputElement.onchange.
Can someone explain why is this happening? I understand why handleUpload is triggered but why it's undefined?
Update
My app is more complex. I use webpack to bundle my js files into a single file then I reference it in layout before closing body tag.
What i'm trying to do is a image preview when input file is filled. Everything works great but if I hit back button after the form was submitted I get that error.
I manage to avoid this problem by removing onchange from html and added a event listener in one of js file. This approach has a delay on opening the select file window.
Here is your Answer
<input type="file" name="image" onchange="window.location='aa.html'">

I want to file load popup to appear after I use function loadFile(), because myInput is hidden.
//HTML
<div id ="hideWhiteSpace" style="display:none">
<input id="myInput" type="file"/>
</div>
Here is my javascript file example, onchange won't work cause i cant press the button.
//JS
function loadFile(){
document.getElementById('myInput').onchange = function (e){
//run code to load file into web.
}
}
Okay, I got it, just put this before onchange line:
document.getElementById('myInput').click();
I don't know if I should answer my own questions or delete the post if I got the answer.
Comment please.

When I click on the image upload button using my mouse, it opens file dialog as expected. However, I couldn't trigger this using JQuery or JS. Could anyone tell me how I can achieve this? What I want is to open the file dialog box when such script is called.
Here is an exmaple snippet you can refer to:-
<script>
function openFile()
{
document.getElementById("dialog").click();
}
</script>
<body onload= "openFile()">
<input type="file" id="dialog" style="display:none">
</body>
I am working on a popup newsletter signup. I already have the similar signup form in another page. I used the exact code and it works great. Once I submit the form, two actions has to happen.
Sending the form details to database
Redirecting to thank you page.
With the existing code(this is from a ecommerce website, I cannot manipulate the code), I can send the details to database - perfectly works fine, but
it is not redirecting to Thank You page, instead redirecting to the page hardcoded in the database(assigned to "action". Is there a way out?
This is the code.
<form name="MailingList" method="post" action="http://www.mywebsite.com/MailingList_subscribe.asp">
<input type="text" name="emailaddress" placeholder="Email Address" maxlength="100" size="28"> <br>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" width="260px">
</form>
Instead of this - http://www.mywebsite.com/MailingList_subscribe.asp, I would like to redirect to "www.mywebsite/thankyou.html" . If I assign www.mywebsite.com/ThankYou.html to "action" , then the form is getting redirected to Thank you page, but not sending the information to the database. I have to use HTML, I cannot call from outside file. I guess I need to use PHP, but I am unclear with the code.
Sorry my mind is all over the place, I guess I explained it clearly. Apologies if my question is unclear. Thanks
Give id to your form like formId and you can do this using jQuery,
Download the jQuery latest version from JQuery repo and then place the jquery.min.js file in your resources folder.
Updated
<script src="yourResourcesFolderPath/jquery.min.js"></script>
// above code will use the jQuery plugin online
// chances are that the file path might be wrong according to where you put the js file
// A simple way to try this is put your file in the same folder of your html file and then change above code to
// <script src="jquery.min.js"></script> change file name according to downloaded file name.
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){ // will run the below code after all html loaded
$('#formId').submit(function(){ // will be called upon form submission
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://www.mywebsite.com/MailingList_subscribe.asp",
context: document.body
}).success(function() {
// this will be called when you return from your server submit code
location.href = "www.mywebsite.com/ThankYou.html";
});
});
)};
</script>
I have a weird problem when I try to submit a form. My page contains a html table and one column has a link that deletes the line from the DB calling a js function.
The html/php line is the following one:
<input type="hidden" name="deleteid" value=0>
print ", delete";
The javascript function is the following one:
function delete_line(team_id) {
if (confirm('<?php echo $txt_confirm_del_team;?>')){
document.formName.elements.deleteid.value = team_id;
document.formName.submit();
}
}
If I put a breakpoint on the line "document.formName.submit();", the called page can read the parameter "deletedid". If not, the parameters are not passed to the page called by the submit.
Btw, I have another issue if I use getElementById() to retrieve the element or the form in the javascript function: it says the getelementbyid is null (and it's not because I can retreive it using the syntax document.formName.elements.deleteid)
thanks
There may be some other event handlers there, you can open the page in Chrome and right click the anchor, then choose "inspect element" and then check out the event handlers in the "event listeners" tab.
As far as the code you posted; there is nothing wrong with it. The following works just fine for me:
<html>
<head>
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
<a onclick="javascript:delete_line(22);">delete</a>
<script>
function delete_line(nr){
console.log(nr);
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
I'm working on an app for webOS that will take a megaupload link(assuming its a video), parse it into a direct link and stream it to a ffplay port for webos called TouchPlay.
I'm working on a basic prototype that will just take the end code on a megaupload link and return a direct link.
Now that I have laid out the basic parts of my application, on to my question. I want to take data in a form in an html page and feed it into a function in an external js script.
Here's the html portion
<html>
<head>
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript" src="source/main.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<form NAME="myform" ACTION="" METHOD="GET">
Enter the MegaUpload Code, ex. megaupload.com/?d=glgrn8f1 -> glgrn8f1: <BR>
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="inputbox" VALUE="">
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="button" Value="Click" onClick="javascript:codeIn(this.form);">
</form>
</body>
</html>
And in my main.js file is in a subdirectory called source and it contains function codeIn(code){ plus the rest of the functions.
Yet when I enter some test data in my web page and hit submit, I get an error in the chrome dev console saying Uncaught Reference Error: codeIn is not defined
I have a very limited experience with html and javascript, but I cant seem to figure this out, I imagine its something really simple that I'm missing.
EDIT: Here's main.js, and yes, I have checked for typos. Just ask if you need to see the contents of any of these functions, but I didn't think they were neccesary.
function codeIn(code){
...
}
function getInfo(url){
...
}
function waiting(timer){
...
}
Ive looked through all these suggestions and it all seems to point to a syntax error, yet when I try to put all the js functions into the head of the html, it works. So thats what I'm doing. I don't change a single thing when I reference it from source/main.js, but whatever.
From the look of it, I think you then need to double check the location of main.js. Verify whether your HTML file is in a location from where main.js can be accessed as source/main.js, rather than something like ../source/main.js (in case your HTML file is in a folder parallel/sibling to the source folder)
The RefereceError in general related to the scope of function that is present and the function call that is being made. It might the source path of the js, html/xhtml/jsp or function scope with in the js file. Hope this helps. Thanks.
