I have a form that is used to update a record, at the bottom I have a submit button. I want it to display a messaging saying "Update Record:" and a Yes and No box.
Every way I've found is just for the confirmation popup, but I don't want a popup I want it to be buttons. So currently I have the below which gives me a confirmation popup
<form class=\"searchForm\" action=\"cd_update.php\" method=\"post\" onsubmit=\"return confirm('Are you sure you want to submit?');\">
<button type="submit" id="editButton">Update</button>
Is this possible to do? I'd need it to cd_update.php on the "Yes" and stay on page for the "No"
Thanks
I believe this code is what you are looking for. Remove the onsubmit handler if you wish, and swap out the onClick event on the no button to do something else. This will allow those buttons to handle your form without a confirm popup.
<form class="searchForm" method="post" onsubmit="alert('Record Updated');">
Update?
<button type="submit" id="yesButton">Yes</button>
<button id="noButton" onClick="alert('Not Updated')">No</button>
</form>
You would have to use a modal in order to customize it how you'd like. This can be as simple as doing it yourself (see below) or using a jQuery modal (which is also simple, but may be overkill.

Styles
#confirm {
display:none;
}
HTML
<form id="form" class="searchForm" action="cd_update.php" method="post">
<div id="confirm">
Update Record:
<button id="yes">Yes</button>
<button id="no">No</button>
</div>
<button type="submit" id="editButton">Update</button>
</form>
JavaScript
document.getElementById('editButton').addEventListener('click', showConfirm);
document.getElementById('no').addEventListener('click', clickNo);
function showConfirm(e) {
e.preventDefault();
document.getElementById('confirm').style.display = 'block';
}
function clickNo(e) {
e.preventDefault();
document.getElementById('confirm').style.display = 'none';
}
Working fiddle.
You can create new div for confirmation message that will contain the two buttons you want Yes and No, after that add the js code that will show this confirmation div after the user click on Update button.
HTML :
<form class="searchForm" action="cd_update.php" method="post">
<div id="confirmation-msg" style="display:none">
Update Record?
<button type="submit" id="yesButton">Yes</button>
<button type="button" onClick="$('#confirmation-msg').hide()">No</button>
</div>
<button type="button" id="editButton">Update</button>
</form>
JS :
$('#editButton').click(function(){
$('#confirmation-msg').show();
});
Hope this helps.

I am trying to pass my search term from my site into the string of another site's URL link. This will allow the search to find books on my site and if it can't be found there the user would click a button that would take the string from the search field and pass it to the URL of MnLink.org. I know my sites code is as follows.
Search For:
I can't figure out what I am missing because I am new to HTML and a novice in JavaScript. I thought I could put the value or id in as a var in a script but I could not get that to work. below is what I have started but got stuck on, any help would be great.
https://mnlink.on.worldcat.org/search?='"style="padding-left:10px;background:#ffffff; border: solid black;">Continue Search
You could simply use a form with method="get" and action="https://mnlink.on.worldcat.org/search".
EXAMPLE:
<form method="get" action="https://mnlink.on.worldcat.org/search">
<div>
<input type="text" name="queryString" value="" />
<button type="submit">
Submit
</button>
</div>
</form>
Working DEMO
EDIT
If you have to use an onClick event i suggest you to use Jquery: on click() you have to redirect your page with window.location.href = 'https://mnlink.on.worldcat.org/search?queryString=' but you must add the value at the end of that String with $("#INPUT_ID").val(). See the demo.
HTML:
<input title="Search For:" autofocus="false" accesskey="s" maxlength="256" tabindex="9" autocomplete="off" size="100" value="cats" id="q" name="q" type="text">
<button id="submit">
Search
</button>
JS:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#submit").click(function() {
window.location.href = 'https://mnlink.on.worldcat.org/search?queryString=' + $("#q").val();
});
});

I have a simple form with two HTML5 buttons. Each button submits the form to a different php page. This is working well, but the 'onsubmit' function is never triggered. I want to show a dialog box before the delete.php page is called.
<form method="post">
<input type="text" name="fname">
<!-- HTML5 FORMACTION -->
<button type="submit" name="update" formaction="update.php">Update</button>
<button type="submit" name="delete" onsubmit="return confirm('Do you really want to delete?');" formaction="delete.php">Delete</button>
</form>
I have tried different variations, but the javascript code is never triggered. Why?
Buttons don't have submit events, forms do.
Buttons have click events.
onsubmit is valid for a form, not for a button. You will have to use onclick instead of onsubmit.
try like this
<form method="post">
<input type="text" name="fname">
<!-- HTML5 FORMACTION -->
<button type="submit" name="update" formaction="update.php">Update</button>
<button type="button" name="delete" onclick="return delete();" formaction="delete.php">Delete</button>
</form>
<script>
function delete(){
if(confirm('Do you really want to delete?')){
// delete code
}
return false;
}
</script>

Stuck on a tough situation!
I have a form for inputting different cities where user want to go.
I have a form box and a submit button.
Now I want my user to enter as many cities he likes, in order to do so he must click on a link Add 1 more city and one more form box should appear.
How can I perform such task in HTML
This is a nice way to do it:
<div id="inputBoxes">
<input />
</div>
<button type="button">Add more</button>
$('button').click(function() {
$('#inputBoxes').append('<input>');
});
Hope it will help,
Zorken17
$('button').click(function() {
$('#inputBoxes').append('<input>');
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js">
</script>
<div id="inputBoxes">
<input />
</div>
<button type="button">Add more</button>
Use jquery clone function.
$('select#options').clone().attr('id', 'newOptions').appendTo('.blah');
See this question
UPDATE
found good snippet for you. exactly what you need
put city box in a div and assign a id to that div and call a menthod of java script on the click of add 1 button then in method append other city box html in div through java script.
maybe thats a good starting point
<form id="myForm">
<div id="cities">
<input class="city" type="text" />
</div>
var $cityInputs;
function registerEvents() {
$cityInputs = $('input.city').not(':disabled');
$cityInputs.blur(function(event){
var $element = $(event.target);
if ($element.val().trim().length !== 0) {
appendNewInput.call($('#cities'));
$element.attr('disabled','disabled');
}
})
}
function appendNewInput() {
this.append('<input class="city" type="text">');
registerEvents();
}
registerEvents();

I have a simple little form that takes a number of seconds to process. I'd like to do two things:
Disable the submit button so the user doesn't hit it multiple times
Show a progress bar while the form is being processed.
I have the following:
<script type="text/javascript">
function myFunction() {
document.getElementById('submit').disabled = true;
document.getElementById('prog').style.display = 'block';
}
</script>
<form method="POST" action="/page" onsubmit="myFunction();">
<input type="text" />
<div id="prog" class="progress" style="display:none;">
<div class="bar" style="width: 100%"></div>
</div>
<button id="submit" type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
When I submit the form, however, I see the submit button gets disabled and the progress bar shows up but the form doesn't actually get processed. If I comment out the part that disables the submit button the form submits as normal and I see the progress bar.
Why does disabling the submit button screw up the form submission?
You could change the button type from submit to button
And, submit the form on click of the button from the javascript function
Try this code..
<script type="text/javascript">
function myFunction() {
document.getElementById('submit').disabled = true;
document.getElementById('prog').style.display = 'block';
document.getElementById('myForm').submit();
}
</script>
<form method="POST" action="/page" id="myForm">
<input type="text" />
<div id="prog" class="progress" style="display:none;">
<div class="bar" style="width: 100%"></div>
</div>
<button id="submit" type="button" onclick="myFunction();">Submit</button>
</form>

I've following two javascript code snippets written for same purpose but only one is working. Why so?
The Working script is as below:
<script language="javascript">
function Redirect(){
window.location.assign("login.php")
}
</script>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" name="cancel" id="cancel" onClick="return Redirect()">Cancel</button>
The non-workable code is as follows:
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" name="submit" id="submit" value="" onclick="javascript:window.location.href='login.php'">Back</button>
But I want the script to be written like the second one only. I can't use first approach though it's working. Can any one please correct the second code snippet and make it workable like first script? Thanks in advance.
Instead of submit, try using input type button...
<input type="button" class="btn btn-primary" name="submit" id="submit" value="Back" onclick="javascript:window.location='login.php'" />
The working script uses window.location.assign() whereas the non-working code tries to set window.location.href directly.
Your second example also uses a submit button whereas your first uses a regular button. Since you don't return false from your click handler, the form gets submitted and the fact that you set the href is void. Unless you're actually submitting the form, don't use a submit button.
