I created an option field and with it I set it to a required field and it works perfect on Chrome/internet explorer/Android's internet. However, when going to my site with Apple's safari on mobile, the required field does not stop the customer when trying to proceed and saying that is a required field.
<div class="productdetailquantity"><?php echo"<form action='./itemsadded.php?view_product=$product_id' method='POST'>"?>
<select class="productsize" name='size' required>
<option value=''>Select a Size</option>
<option value='Small'>Small</option>
<option value='Medium'>Medium</option>
<option value='Large'>Large</option>
<option value='XL'>XL</option>
</select>
Is there something else I have to add other than the html5 'required' field for this to make it work on Safari or why isn't this working?
If Safari does not support it, what is another way I can implement this field to be required?
UPDATE:
After figuring out it isn't supported, I tried doing some JS with it, but my message OR alert won't display. However, it doesn't allow the customer to move forward unless a size is picked, but I need the message to display so they know why.
<div class="productdetailquantity"><?php echo"<form action='./itemsadded.php?view_product=$product_id' method='POST' id='formID'>"?>
<select class="productsize" name='size' required><span id="sizeoptionMSG" style="margin-left:6px;color:darkred;"></span>
<option value='' id="sizeoption">Select a Size</option>
<option value='Small'>Small</option>
<option value='Medium'>Medium</option>
<option value='Large'>Large</option>
<option value='XL'>XL</option>
</select><br><br>
<select class="productquantity" name='quantity'>
<option value='1'>1</option>
<option value='2'>2</option>
<option value='3'>3</option>
<option value='4'>4</option>
<option value='5'>5</option>
<option value='6'>6</option>
<option value='7'>7</option>
<option value='8'>8</option>
<option value='9'>9</option>
<option value='10'>10</option>
</select>
</div><br><br>
<div class="productdetailaddbutton">
<?php
echo "<input type='hidden' name='product_id' value='$product_id' />
<input type='submit' class='addtocart' name='add_to_cart' value='Add to cart' />";
?>
<script>
var form = document.getElementById('formID'); // form has to have ID:
<form id="formID">
form.noValidate = true;
form.addEventListener('submit', function(event) { // listen for form submitting
if (!event.target.checkValidity()) {
event.preventDefault(); // dismiss the default functionality
document.getElementById('sizeoptionMSG').innerHTML = document.getElementById('sizeoption').value == '' ? 'Please, select a size' : ''; // Show message
document.getElementById('sizeoption').style.borderColor = document.getElementById('sizeoption').value == '' ? 'darkred' : ''; // color field's border
if (document.getElementById('sizeoption').value == '') document.getElementById('sizeoption').focus(); // Put cursor back to the field
alert('Please, select a size.'); // error message
}
}, false);
</script>
At this time, Safari does not support the "required" input attribute.

I have a select option list for my form and I want to make sure the user has selected one of the options. My function logic implies that if the user keeps the dropdown on the default option, an alert will pop up prompting them to change it. However, no alert shows up whatsoever. What am I doing wrong?
function isOption(form) {
var type = form.getElementByID("pastimetype")
var selectedValue = type.options[type.selectedIndex].value;
if (selectedValue == "selectpastime") {
alert("Please select a pastime.")
return false
}
return true
}
<p><label for="pastime"> Favourite pastime: </label>
<select name="pastime" select id="pastimetype">
<option value="selectpastime">---Please choose an option---</option>
<option value="surfingtheweb">Surfing the Web</option>
<option value="playingsport">Playing Sport</option>
<option value="listeningtomusic">Listening to Music</option>
<option value="watchingtv">Watching TV</option>
<option value="playinggames">Playing Games</option>
<option value="communityservice">Community Service</option>
<option value="daydreaming">Daydreaming</option>
<option value="reading">Reading</option>
<option value="meditation">Meditation</option>
</select>
</p>
you need to add the function to the submit event of the form.
you misspelled getElementById
no need to use form.getElementById
easier to get the value using select.value
use preventDefault instead of returning true/false
Also
function isOption(e) {
var sel = document.getElementById("pastimetype");
var selectedValue = sel.value;
if (selectedValue == "") { // I removed the value from the "Please select"
alert("Please select a pastime.")
e.preventDefault(); // stop submission
}
}
window.addEventListener("load",function() {
document.getElementById("form1").addEventListener("submit",isOption)
})
<form id="form1">
<p><label for="pastime"> Favourite pastime: </label>
<select name="pastime" select id="pastimetype">

I have created an HTML form that is generated from a PHP script. The PHP script outputs an HTML dropdown based on data held in a database. The number of dropdowns being displayed on the page varies as it is based on the number of lines in a MySQL database. All the dropdowns have the same ID inputDropdown
I am trying to create a jquery script that prevents the form from being submitted until all the dropdown boxes have been completed (So whenever the value doesn't equal No Response).
This is the HTML code outputted from the PHP Script. Please note the number in the name (E.G. "1" in dropdown_1) is generated based on the ID of a row in the database.
<select name="dropdown_1" id="inputDropdown" class="form-control">
<option value="No Response" selected>Blank - Please Select A Option</option>
<option value="No">No</option>
<option value="Full">Yes</option>
</select>
<select name="dropdown_2" id="inputDropdown" class="form-control">
<option value="No Response" selected>Blank - Please Select A Option</option>
<option value="No">No</option>
<option value="Full">Yes</option>
</select>
<select name="dropdown_3" id="inputDropdown" class="form-control">
<option value="No Response" selected>Blank - Please Select A Option</option>
<option value="No">No</option>
<option value="Full">Yes</option>
</select>
I tried the following jquery Code, however, this only worked for the first of the dropdowns and didn't check the other dropdown values.
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#update-form").submit(function (e) {
if ($('#inputDropdown').val() == 'No Response') {
alert('Please complete all the boxes');
}
e.preventDefault(e);
});
$("#inputDropdown").change(function () {
$("#inputDropdown").submit();
return false;
});
});
Please, could someone advise of an efficient way on how to do this?
Thank you in advance!
Your first issue is that you have repeated the same id in the DOM, which is invalid. Use a class to group the elements instead.
Then you can use filter() to find how many of the selects still have the first option selected when the form is submit. If any of them do, show the alert(). You also need to call preventDefault() at this point only. Try this:
jQuery(function($) {
$("#update-form").submit(function(e) {
var unselected = $('.inputDropdown').filter(function() {
return $(this).find('option:selected').index() == 0;
}).length;
if (unselected != 0) {
e.preventDefault(e);
alert('Please complete all the boxes');
}
});
$(".inputDropdown").change(function() {
$("#update-form").submit();
});
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="update-form" action="#">

I using intlTelInput for the telephone & mobile field on asp.net webform website.
At present i am using it as a basic plugin as show in this example
var input = $("#ContentPlaceHolder1_txtPhone"), output = $("#output");
var country = $("#ContentPlaceHolder1_ddCountry");
input.intlTelInput({
preferredCountries: ['ae'],
autoHideDialCode: true,
nationalMode: false,
utilsScript: "../../Scripts/phone/js/utils.js" // just for formatting/placeholders etc
});
Now i am trying to sync it with the Country drop-down so that when user select the country it then automatically select the Telephone Fields & Mobile field on web-form with the country in telephone fields.
I tried to use this example but it is not working either it break the plugin or it downt work
http://intl-tel-input.com/node_modules/intl-tel-input/examples/gen/country-sync.html
Code which i tried
var countryData = $.fn.intlTelInput.getCountryData(),
telInput = $("#ContentPlaceHolder1_txtPhone"),
addressDropdown = $("#ContentPlaceHolder1_ddCountry");
// set it's initial value
//var initialCountry = telInput.intlTelInput("getSelectedCountryData").iso2;
//addressDropdown.val(initialCountry);
// listen to the telephone input for changes
telInput.on("countrychange", function (e, countryData) {
addressDropdown.val(countryData.iso2);
});
// listen to the address dropdown for changes
addressDropdown.change(function () {
telInput.intlTelInput("setCountry", $(this).val());
});
I have place code on codepen http://codepen.io/anon/pen/wgzppg.
I am not sure where i am doing it wrong. i tried few thing without any luck.
I pull data for country dropdown from database table not the plugin so that may be causing issue somewhere. but country code are matching also.
I solved it problem seems to be with the countryCode as was getting countryCode in UpperCase and changing that to lower case seemed to have fixed the issue

I have a html dropdown field where there should be a text field added at the bottom naming other.The text typed in this field should come as other:text
drop down html is :
<select name="drop">
<option selected="selected">Please select ...</option>
<option value="car">car</option>
<option value="bike">bike</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option>
</select>
Here other should be text field.For understanding i kept other as option,but i want that to be a input text field where value is given by user.
Thanks in advance
You could add hidden input field by default for other text :
<input type='text' id='other' name='other' style="display:none"/>
And capture the change on select in your js then check if selected option value equal Other and show the field or hide it :
$('select').on('change', function(){
if($(this).val()=='Other'){
$('#other').show().focus();
}else{
$('#other').val('').hide();
}
})
Hope this helps.
$('select').on('change', function(){
if($(this).val()=='Other'){
$('#other').show().focus();
}else{
$('#other').val('').hide();
}
})
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select name="drop">
<option selected="selected">Please select ...</option>
<option value="car">car</option>
<option value="bike">bike</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option>
</select>
<input type='text' id='other' name='other' style="display:none" value='other:'/>
<script type="text/javascript">
function showfield(name){
if(name=='Other')document.getElementById('div1').innerHTML='Other: <input type="text" name="other" />';
else document.getElementById('div1').innerHTML='';
}
</script>
<select name="drop" id="drop" onchange="showfield(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value)">
<option selected="selected">Please select ...</option>
<option value="car">car</option>
<option value="bike">bike</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option>
</select>
<div id="div1"></div>
you could go the other way and make all options accessible by the text field - but giving an autocomplete option as the user types. This can be done with jQuery autocomplete plugins etc or the new html5 datalist. This ties a predetermined set of options to the textfield - allowing the user to select from it if theinput value matches the value, but also allows for alternative text to be entered if there are no matches. Just note though that Safari (and possible other browsers) do not support this feature yet. But its very cool when it is supported.
<input id="transportOptions" list="transport">
<datalist id="transport">
<option value="Car">
<option value="Bike">
<option value="Scooter">
<option value="Taxi">
<option value="Bus">

this is my Form code
<form id="search_mini_form">
<select id="cat" class="input-text-select catvalue" name="cat">
<option value="">All Mediums</option>
<option value="150">Painting</option>
<option value="151">Photography</option>
<option value="152">Work on paper</option>
<option value="153">Drawing</option>
</select>
<select id="style" class="input-text-select styvalue" name="style">
<option value="">All Styles</option>
<option value="54">Abstract</option>
<option value="55">Architectural</option>
</select>
<button class="button" title="Search" type="submit">Search</button>
what trying to achieve on submit my from redirects according to what values are selected from drop down
like if on painting is selected it should redirect to mysite/paintings or if only style (abstract) selected it would redirect to mysite/artwork?abstract or if both selected it should be like mysite/painting?abstract
how can i achieve this ?
i have tried using Jquery
<script type="text/javascript">
$(".catvalue").change(function(){
$catvalue = $(".catvalue option:selected").val();
alert ("$catvalue")
});
$(".styvalue").change(function(){
$styvalue = $(".styvalue option:selected").val();
});
if ($catvalue)
{
$redirecturl = "mysite/"+$jqcatvalue;
}
else if ($styvalue)
{
$redirecturl = "mysite/artwork?"+$styvalue;
}
else if ($styvalue && $styvalue )
{
$redirecturl = "mysite/"+$jqcatvalue="?"+$jqstyvalue;
}
is it right approach ?? how could i pass it to form action ?
edit : using magento so have to get base url by <?php echo Mage::getBaseUrl() ?>
I think what you are looking for here is almost the basic drop down navigation schema, very common implementation similar to this example.
<FORM name="f1">
<SELECT name="s1">
<OPTION SELECTED value="http://www.java2s.com">Java2s.com
<OPTION value="http://www.google.com">Google
<OPTION value="http://www.msn.com">msn
<OPTION value="http://www.perl.com">Perl.com
<OPTION value="http://www.php.net">Php.net
</SELECT>
<INPUT type="button" name="go" value="Go!" onClick="window.location=document.f1.s1.options[document.f1.s1.selectedIndex].value">
</FORM>
Your select options should have the value of the page location to navigate and your onClick value simply calls window.location and uses the selected form data appropriately. No need to actual "submit" the form here to a form handler, use pure javascript like one of the commenters mentioned.
Using this example you could easily add the second portion of your select as a "?option" with an if statement. The onClick could be moved into a function instead of calling window.location directly to do the analysis.
UPDATE: Here is your code re-purposed with this method, it's quick and dirty, might have a couple errors I haven't had the time to check it yet.
<script>
function doSearch() {
var cat = document.search_mini_form.cat.options[document.search_mini_form.cat.selectedIndex].value;
var style = document.search_mini_form.style.options[document.search_mini_form.style.selectedIndex].value;
if ((cat) && (style)) {
alert(cat + "?" + style);
// send to page using variables
}
else if (cat) {
alert(cat);
// send to page using variables
}
else {
alert("nothing selected");
}
}
</script>
<form name="search_mini_form" id="search_mini_form">
<select name="cat" id="cat" class="input-text-select catvalue">
<option value="">All Mediums</option>
<option value="painting">Painting</option>
<option value="photo">Photography</option>
<option value="paper">Work on paper</option>
<option value="drawing">Drawing</option>
</select>
<select name="style" id="style" class="input-text-select styvalue">
<option value="">All Styles</option>
<option value="abstract">Abstract</option>
<option value="arch">Architectural</option>
</select>
<button class="button" title="Search" onClick="doSearch()">Search</button>
</form>
<form id="search_mini_form" action="">
<select id="cat" class="input-text-select catvalue" name="cat">
<option value="">All Mediums</option>
<option value="150">Painting</option>
<option value="151">Photography</option>
<option value="152">Work on paper</option>
<option value="153">Drawing</option>
</select>
<select id="style" class="input-text-select styvalue" name="style">
<option value="">All Styles</option>
<option value="54">Abstract</option>
<option value="55">Architectural</option>
</select>
<button class="button" title="Search" type="submit">Search</button>
$(".input-text-select styvalue").change(function(){
$("search_mini_form").attr("action","mysite/");
var thisvalue = $(this).find("option:selected").text();
$("search_mini_form").attr("action","mysite/"+thisvalue );
});
Please try the following code
<form id="search_mini_form">
<select id="cat" class="input-text-select catvalue" name="cat">
<option value="">All Mediums</option>
<option value="150">Painting</option>
<option value="151">Photography</option>
<option value="152">Work on paper</option>
<option value="153">Drawing</option>
</select>
<select id="style" class="input-text-select styvalue" name="style">
<option value="">All Styles</option>
<option value="54">Abstract</option>
<option value="55">Architectural</option>
</select>
<input class="button" title="Search" type="submit" value="Search"/>
</form>
Check the javascript code
$('#search_mini_form').submit(function(){
var mediums=$('#cat option:selected').text();
var styles=$('#style option:selected').text();
if(styles!="AllStyles" && mediums =="All Mediums")
{
$('#search_mini_form').attr("action",'mysite/artwork?'+styles+'=test');
}
else if(styles =="AllStyles" && mediums !="All Mediums")
{
$('#search_mini_form').attr("action",'mysite/'+mediums);
}
else
{
$('#search_mini_form').attr("action",'mysite/'+mediums+'?'+styles+'=test');
}
});
