My jQuery code:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#myprojects").hide();
$("#mp").click(function(e) {
$("#myprojects").show();
$("#mp").hide();
});
});
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#addnewprojects").hide();
$("#anp").click(function(e) {
$("#addnewprojects").show();
$("#anp").hide();
});
});
</script>
my intention is which menu I will click that form will display in the model

Now need to add add $(document).ready twice and adding couple of hide and show for working snippet. Run snippet for working example.
$("#myprojects").hide();
$("#mp").click(function(e) {
$("#myprojects").show();
$("#addnewprojects").hide();
// $(this).hide();
$("#anp").show();
});
$("#anp").click(function(e) {
$("#addnewprojects").show();
$("#myprojects").hide();
//$(this).hide();
$("#mp").show();
});

Submit form data from selected radio button option only

I am working on a form where a user selects an option from radio buttons.
Then depending on option, a view of text fields appears. The user then inputs the required data and submits the form.
The options have different options and such data submitted should be different.
My challenge is how to submit only data from the selected radio button fields.
Anyone kindly help. Thank you
$(function () {
$('input[type="radio"]').on("click",function () {
$(".selections").hide(); // hide them all
if (this.value=="both") $(".selections").show(); // show both
else $("#"+this.value).show(); // show the one with ID=radio value
});
$('.selections input[type="checkbox"]').on("click",function() {
$(this).next().toggle(this.checked); // hide if not checked
});
$('.selections input[type="text"]').each(function() { // initialise
$(this).toggle($(this).prev().is(":checked"));
});
});
.selections { display:none; }

You should try to use Bootstrap Tabs [imho], but if you want to go with radios...
Disabling all inputs will prevent them from being submited:
$("#div :input").attr("disabled", true);
or
$('#div').find('input, textarea, button, select').attr('disabled','disabled');
Code from this post

Firstly you don't need same field repeatedly.Try like this
$(function () {
$('input[name="billing"]').on('change',function(){
$('#bill_type').val($(this).val());
});
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form class="form-horizontal" role="form" method="POST" action="set-up-bill-details">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="billing" class="col-md-4 control-label"> Select Billing Option</label>
<div class="col-md-6">
<input type="radio" name="billing" value="percentage" >Percentage
<input type="radio" name="billing" value="flat_rate" >Flat Rate
<input type="radio" name="billing" value="variable" >Variable
</br>
</div>
</div>
<!-- percentage radio option -->
<div id="percentage" class="selections">
<input type="hidden" id="bill_type" name="bill_type" value="">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="rate" class="col-md-4 control-label">Rate</label>
<div class="col-md-4">
<input id="rate" placeholder="10" type="number" class="form-control" name="rate" autofocus>
</div>
</div>
<input type="date" class="form-control" name="send_at" placeholder="the invoicing date">
</div>
<br/>
<br/>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-lg-8 col-md-8 col-sm-12 col-md-offset-2">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-sm btn-default btn-flat"
data-dismiss="modal">
<i class="fa fa-times" aria-hidden="true"> Close</i>
</button>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-sm btn-facebook btn-flat pull-right">
<i class="fa fa-floppy-o" aria-hidden="true"> Save</i>
</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
After submission you can do whatever based on the value of bill_type.

Swap div content with one button

I have two types content in each div. One is a table and another is the form. I want to swap it by pressing a button.

Javascript
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#formDiv').css('border', 'red !important');
//swap content
$('#btn').on('click',function() {
$('#table').hide();
$('#formDiv').prop('display', 'show');
})
});
It's only working once. I want the content swap every click.
Here's the fiddle : https://jsfiddle.net/krm85qq3/5/

You can use toggle function in order to display or hide the matched elements.
$('#btn').on('click',function() {
$('#table').toggle();
$('#formDiv').prop('display', 'show');
})
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#btn').on('click', function() {
$('#table').toggle();
$('#formDiv').toggle();
});
});
#formDiv {
display: none;
border: red;
}

You can use the jQuery toggle() function to... toggle between a show/hide state automatically :)

Toggle works great, but you can also handle it manually. For example, if you want to be able to perform certain functionality when the contact form is showing vs when the table is showing. The following code does the same thing the toggle would do, only applied manually. Just for variety. :)
$(document).ready(function() {
var formEl = $("#formDiv"),
tableEl = $("#table"),
btnEl = $("#btn");
//swap content
btnEl.on('click',function() {
if (tableEl.is(":visible")) {
tableEl.hide();
formEl.show();
btnEl.find("i").text(" Return to Table");
} else {
tableEl.show();
formEl.hide();
btnEl.find("i").text(" Contact Us");
}
})
});
#formDiv {
display: none;
}

</div>
</div>
In the above example, if the table is showing and you click on the button, I also wanted to change the text of the btn el. Thus, knowing the state of the table el and using that as my manual toggle point, I can tinker with the state of other elements at will.

how to hide cc , bcc in mail box form initially

I have developed a mail box form where i want to hide cc , bcc option initially. cc, bcc will when i click on their option.
I am not able to do this.
<form class="inbox-compose form-horizontal" id="fileupload" action="#" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">

<div class="inbox-form-group input-cc display-hide">

</div>
<div class="inbox-form-group">
<textarea class="inbox-editor inbox-wysihtml5 form-control" name="message" rows="12"></textarea>
Please help me to make my form better

Initially hide the div like:
<span class="inbox-cc-bcc" style="display:none;">
<span class="inbox-cc"> Cc </span>
<span class="inbox-bcc"> Bcc </span>
</span>
and show it by adding an event listener on cc, bcc button using jquery show() method

You can use the hide class to hide sections that you would like to hide initially.

Angular UI Bootstrap Input-Group-Button - darn floating button

I have a form that i have just added a bootstrap datepicker to and using an input-group-button.
The problem I have is that the button floats off to the right at the extent of the containing div.
The button in question is the button to the right of TargetDate.
I have been following instructs at TutorialsPoint

Any assistance gratefully appreciated

There's a couple things that can help you here:
Columns are meant to be wrapped by rows. The default bootstrap grid is a grid of 12 columns.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-8">.col-md-8</div>
<div class="col-md-4">.col-md-4</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-4">.col-md-4</div>
<div class="col-md-4">.col-md-4</div>
<div class="col-md-4">.col-md-4</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">.col-md-6</div>
<div class="col-md-6">.col-md-6</div>
</div>
So with that in mind, you can see how you can control the placement PER row of your elements.
As it stands your last div is set to a col-sm-10. This column is holding your input for your target date as well as the button that's misbehaving.
Below is a modification of your troubled area with a fiddle. You had a span tag open too long as well as missing a "form-control" class.
http://jsfiddle.net/Levy0k2f/
<div class="form-group">
<label for="targetDate" class="col-sm-2 control-label">Target Date</label>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-3">
<div class="input-group">
<input name="targetDate" type="text" class="form-control form-control-date" datepicker-popup="{{vm.format}}" ng-model="formData.targetDate" is-open="vm.opened" min-date="vm.minDate" max-date="'2015-06-22'" datepicker-options="vm.dateOptions" date-disabled="vm.disabled(date, mode)" ng-required="true" close-text="Close"> <span class="input-group-btn"></span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-3">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" ng-click="vm.open($event)"> <i class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></i></button>
</div>
</div>
Update for fixing of button, the button was outside the span class.

<span class="input-group-btn">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" ng-click="vm.open($event)">
<i class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></i>
</button>
</span>
