Post multiple data using Jquery/Ajax

I have this script below that sends only 1 value to the requested URL, but now I need to adjust it to accept 2, I couldn't find a way to do that.
Each checkbox is accompanied by an input hidden named #note, I need to pass this #note value (that's my order ID) together.
$('#importaNF').click(function(){
var checkbox = $('.import_checkbox:checked');
if(checkbox.length > 0)
{
var checkbox_value = [];
$(checkbox).each(function(){
checkbox_value.push($(this).val());
});
$.ajax({
url:"<?php echo base_url(); ?>adm/pedidos/importaNF",
method:"POST",
data:{checkbox_value:checkbox_value},
success:function()
{
$('.removeRow').fadeOut(1500);
}
})
}
else
{
alert('Select atleast one records');
}
}
My HTML
<div class="btn-group">
<input type="checkbox" class="import_checkbox" name="import_checkbox" value="<?= $registro->NUMERO ?>">
<input type="input" id="note" class="import_input" name="import_input" value="<?= $registro->FATURA ?>" style="visibility:hidden">
</div>

I may be misinterpretting, but you can just extract it like you did the checkbox value and add a second property to the data object:
data:{checkbox_value:checkbox_value, note_value: note_value},
Unless you mean you're trying to pass a second url parameter?

Javascript output as value of hidden input

How can I set the ouput of this javascript function as the value for a hidden input on a html form?
document.write(states[i][1]);
works fine but I cannot get it to fill in the value with the code as shown below.
if (to == 'abbr'){
input = input.replace(/\w\S*/g, function(txt){return
txt.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + txt.substr(1).toLowerCase();});
for(i = 0; i < states.length; i++){
if(states[i][0] == input){
document.getElementById("sid").value = (states[i][1]);
}
}
}
}
</script>
<form action="we2.php" method="post">
<input type="text" id="sid" name="s1"/>
<input type="submit" value="Verify">
</form>
What is wrong with this code / what is the right way to do this?
Thanks!

This should do it.
HTML:
<input type="hidden" id="HiddenInput" />
JavaScript:
document.getElementById("HiddenInput").value = someFunction();

Have you checked if states[i][0] == input evaluates to true?

Write JavaScript code after html code end in your page or at the end of page.

I found a easier solution by just turning the entire function into a variable then the variable into the DOM:
var response = abbrState('<?php echo $_GET['state']; ?>', 'abbr');
document.getElementById("sid").value = response;

The following should work.
HTML:
<div style="display:none" id="example"></div>
Javascript:
function addTextNode(text) {
var newtext = document.createTextNode(text),
element = document.getElementById('example');
element.appendChild(newtext);
}
function yourFunctionDataHere(){
return 'test1234';
}
addTextNode(yourFunctionDataHere());
Just make sure, that the return type of your function is of type string. If you want to see the output simply remove the style="display:none" from the div in the above example.
Try it online on jsfiddle.

jQuery Click Function, input value length and pattern

I have a problem, that I'm struggling with since 2 days.
I have a webpage that asks for the phone number, and I'm trying to make a "validator" for the phone number into the input tab, but it seems that I cannot figure out how to check the minlength for the input tab, neither how to accept only numerical characters. Here's the code:
$("#start").click(function(){ // click func
if ($.trim($('#phonenr').val()) == ''){
$("#error").show();
I tried adding:
if ($.trim($('#phonenr').val()) == '') && ($.trim($('#phonenr').val().length) < 15)
But it just won't work.
Any help would be appreciated. Also please tell me how can I make it allow only numbers?
Thank you!
Final code, with help of #Saumya Rastogi.
$("#start").click(function(){
var reg = /^\d+$/;
var input_str = $('#phonenr').val();
chopped_str = input_str.substring(0, input_str.length - 1);
if(!reg.test(input_str)) {
$("#error").show();
return;
}
if(($.trim(input_str) == '') || ($.trim(input_str).length < 15)) {
$("#error").show();
} else {

You can make your validation work.
You can use test (Regex Match Test) for accepting only digits in the input text. Just use javascript's substring to chop off the entered non-digit character like this:
$(function() {
$('#btn').on('click',function(e) {
var reg = /^\d+$/; // <------ regex for validatin the input should only be digits
var input_str = $('#phonenr').val();
chopped_str = input_str.substring(0, input_str.length - 1);
if(!reg.test(input_str)) {
$('label.error').show();
return;
}
if(($.trim(input_str) == '') || ($.trim(input_str).length < 15)) {
$('label.error').show();
} else {
$('label.error').hide();
}
});
})
label.error {
display: none;
color: red;
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input id="phonenr" type="text" value=""><br>
<label class='error'>Invalid Number</label>
<br><br>
<button id="btn">Click to Validate</button>
Hope this helps!

If you are using HTML5, then you can make use of the new number input type available
<input type="number" name="phone" min="10" max="10">
You can also use the pattern attribute to restrict the input to a specific Regular expression.

If you are looking for the simplest way to check input against a pattern and display a message based on validity, then using regular expressions is what you want:
// Wait until the DOM has been fully parsed
window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function(){
// Get DOM references:
var theForm = document.querySelector("#frmTest");
var thePhone = document.querySelector("#txtPhone");
var btnSubmit = document.querySelector("#btnSubmit");
// Hook into desired events. Here, we'll validate as text is inputted
// into the text field, when the submit button is clicked and when the
// form is submitted
theForm.addEventListener("submit", validate);
btnSubmit.addEventListener("click", validate);
thePhone.addEventListener("input", validate);
// The simple validation function
function validate(evt){
var errorMessage = "Not a valid phone number!";
// Just check the input against a regular expression
// This one expects 10 digits in a row.
// If the pattern is matched the form is allowed to submit,
// if not, the error message appears and the form doesn't submit.
!thePhone.value.match(/\d{3}\d{3}\d{4}/) ?
thePhone.nextElementSibling.textContent = errorMessage : thePhone.nextElementSibling.textContent = "";
evt.preventDefault();
}
});
span {
background: #ff0;
}
<form id="frmTest" action="#" method="post">
<input id="txtPhone" name="txtPhone"><span></span>
<br>
<input type="submit" id="btnSubmit">
</form>
Or, you can take more control of the process and use the pattern HTML5 attribute with a regular expression to validate the entry. Length and digits are checked simultaneously.
Then you can implement your own custom error message via the HTML5 Validation API with the setCustomValidity() method.
<form id="frmTest" action="#" method="post">
<input type="tel" id="txtPhone" name="txtPhone" maxlength="20"
placeholder="555-555-5555" title="555-555-5555"
pattern="\d{3}-\d{3}-\d{4}" required>
<input type="submit" id="btnSubmit">
</form>
Stack Overflow's code snippet environment doesn't play well with forms, but a working Fiddle can be seen here.

Javascript two weird problems: POST not working, window.location.href not working

I created an instant search similar to google search using JQuery. The highlighted code doesn't work. It is weird since they work fine by its own and everything else works fine. Any idea why this is happening?
Q1.
searchq() works fine, but the createq() function doesn't work, and the variable txt could be posted to other files(search.php). However, the function createq() can't POST. It does get the global variable txt after testing, but the php file(create_object.php) can't get it no matter what POST method I used. Could anyone helps to write a bit POST code which can work in my code.
Q2
I want to create a function that,when the enter is pressed, the user will be redirected to the first search result(which is anchored with an url) . To achieve this, I create a function that variable redirectUrl got the anchored url as string, however, the redirect function window.location.href doesn't work, the page simply refreshed. I tested window.location.href function by its own in another file, it works though. It is so weird that my page simply refreshed, It even refreshed when I direct to google. window.location.href("www.google.com").
Note that I didn't include the connect to database function here. Coz I think the database username and password setting would be different to yours.So please create your own if you want to test it. The mysql is set with a table is called "objects", and it has one column named "name".
Thanks in advance!

</html>
PHP file (search.php)
<?php
if(isset($_POST["searchVal"])){
//get the search
$search=$_POST["searchVal"];
//sort the search
$search=preg_replace("#[^0-9a-z]#i","",$search);

}

}
echo $output;
}
?>
php file (create_object.php)
<?php

var_dump($name);
}
?>

Try to bind the input with id
var txt = $("input").val();
<input type="text" name="search" style="width:400px " placeholder="Search box" onkeyup="searchq();">
Change above to this
var txt = $("#searchinput").val();
<input type="text" id="searchinput" name="search" style="width:400px " placeholder="Search box" onkeyup="searchq();">
and I think you are trying to show the search result here
<div id="output"></div>
and the jQuery binding is this in your code
$("#search_output").html("");
So change the HTML to this
<div id="search_output"></div>
also this in our code
$("#search").keypress(function(evt){
there is not HTML element bind with it and I think you are trying to bind it with search input so change above to this
$("#searchinput").keypress(function(evt){
The above change should also resolve the window.location.href not working problem
So the HTML will be;
<form method="POST">
<input type="text" id="searchinput" name="search" style="width:400px " placeholder="Search box" onkeyup="searchq();">
<div id="search_output"></div>
</form>
and Script will be
<script type="text/javascript">
function searchq(){
// get the value
var txt = $("#searchinput").val();
// post the value
if(txt){
$.post("search.php", {searchVal: txt}, function(result){
$("#search_output").html(result+"<div id=\"create\" onclick=\"creatq()\"><br>Not found above? Create.</div>");
});
}
else{
$("#search_output").html("");
}
}
function createq(){
// allert for test purpose: test if the txt has got by the createq function
alert(txt);
**$.post( "create_object.php",{creatVal:txt} );**
}
// if enter key pressed, redirect page to the first search result
$("#searchinput").keypress(function(evt){
if (evt.which == 13) {
// find the first search result in DOM and trigger a click event
var redirectUrl = $('#search_output').find('a').first().attr('href');
alert(redirectUrl);
**window.location.href = "www.google.com";
window.location.href = "www.google.com";**
}
});
</script>
Note: If you check browser console, you may see some errors, there are some typo mistakes like missing ; in your JS too.
In the PHP, here
if($count==0){
$output="there was no search result";
}
else{
while($row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($query)){
$object_name=$row["name"];
$output.="<div><a href='##'>".$object_name."</a></div>";
}
}
$output. is wrong with dot, so change it to following
if($count==0){
$output="there was no search result";
}
else{
while($row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($query)){
$object_name=$row["name"];
$output="<div><a href='#'>".$object_name."</a></div>";
}
}

Two things:
Input search id is not defined, $("#search").keypress won't work. Change to:
< input type="text" name="search" id="search" style="width:400px " placeholder="Search box" onkeyup="searchq();" >
Div id "output", should be "search_output", as required in $("#search_output"). Change to:
< div id="search_output" >
< /div >

how to compare 2 form inputs live

I'm trying to compare two form inputs "password" and re-enter-password" to make sure there the same. I validate the password by sending it to a separate PHP that echoes back the results(which works fine)
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#password_feedback').load('password-check.php').show();
$('#password_input').keyup(function() {
$.post('password-check.php', {
password: form.password.value
},
function(result) {
$('#password_feedback').html(result).show();
});
});
});
</script>
I tried sending password and re-enter=password to a PHP to compare with no luck. Can I compare the two with every keyup.

What are you checking for in your PHP script? Anything in particular that justifies the use of PHP?
You could do that only with JS, you don't need the AJAX part.
HTML :
<input type="password" id="password">
<input type="password" id="password_cf">
<div class="result"></div>
JS (jQuery) :
$('#password_cf').on('keyup', function(){
if($('#password_cf').val()== $('#password').val())
$('.result').html('They match');
else
$('.result').html('They do not match');
});
Fiddle : http://jsfiddle.net/2sapjxnu/
You can use the blur event if you want to only check once the focus is lost on that field. It's a bit less "responsive" than verifying on every key, but more performant I guess.

Not necessary jQuery, add the function:
function checkPass(input) {
if (input.value != document.getElementById('re-enter-password').value) {
input.setCustomValidity('Passwords should match.');
} else {
input.setCustomValidity('');
}
}
Add this to your re-enter-password: oninput="checkPass(this)"
OR
just call this function in the part where you want to make the comparison:
function checkPass() {
var input = document.getElementById('password');
if (input.value != document.getElementById('re-enter-password').value) {
input.setCustomValidity('Passwords should match.');
} else {
input.setCustomValidity('');
}
}

How about adding a class to each input and then:
if($(".password").val() == $(".re-enter-password").val()){
alert("it matches")
} else {
alert("no match yet");
}

Quick and dirty -
Given this markup -
<input type="password" name="pw1" />
<input type="password" name="pw2" />
You could check it client side without muliple round trips to the server using code like this -
$('[name="pw2"]').blur(function() {
var pw1 = $('[name="pw1"]').val();
var pw2 = $('[name="pw2"]').val();
if(pw2 != pw1) {
alert('passwords do not match');
}
});

Matching 2 form input fields with JavaScript by sending it off to the server to get an assertion response could render a bad user experience, because if you're doing this on each keyPress, then it generates unnecessary internet traffic - while the user is waiting.
So, instead, why not match these 2 fields directly with JavaScript?
If you are using a specific regular expression on the server for validation check as well, you can have the server put that regex "pattern" in the HTML fields - (no JavaScrpt needed for that). Then, onkeyup event you can simply do something like:
form.field2.onkeyup = function()
{
if (form.field1.value !== form.field2.value)
{
/* some code to highlight the 2 fields,
or show some message, or speech bubble */
return;
}
}
form.field1.onkeyup = form.field2.onkeyup;
