I created the following form:
http://jsfiddle.net/baumdexterous/GYNSu/1/
I implemented a validation script that works for many of the form elements but for some reason it's not working for the radio buttons so currently a user can submit the form without selecting one of the required radio buttons.
How can I enable validation for the radio buttons using this existing script? Thanks so much.
<ul>
<li class="required">
<label>What is the U.S. Capital? Please select your answer below:</label>
<div class="questionsone">
<input name="questionone" type="radio" value="a">a) New York<br>
<input name="questionone" type="radio" value="b">b) Washington DC<br>
<input name="questionone" type="radio" value="c">c) Seattle<br>
<input name="questionone" type="radio" value="d">d) Portland<br>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
Update: I have this JavaScript part that works with the existing validation. Trying to figure out how to add a way that will detect radio buttons:
<script>
$(function() {
var root = $("#wizard").scrollable();
// some variables that we need
var api = root.scrollable(),
drawer = $("#drawer");
// validation logic is done inside the onBeforeSeek callback
api.onBeforeSeek(function(event, i) {
// we are going 1 step backwards so no need for validation
if (api.getIndex() < i) {
// 1. get current page
var page = root.find(".page").eq(api.getIndex()),
// 2. .. and all required fields inside the page
inputs = page.find(".required :input").removeClass("error"),
// 3. .. which are empty
empty = inputs.filter(function() {
return $(this).val().replace(/\s*/g, '') == '';
});
// if there are empty fields, then
if (empty.length) {
// slide down the drawer
drawer.slideDown(function() {
// colored flash effect
drawer.css("backgroundColor", "#229");
setTimeout(function() {
drawer.css("backgroundColor", "#fff");
}, 1000);
});
// add a CSS class name "error" for empty & required fields
empty.addClass("error");
// cancel seeking of the scrollable by returning false
return false;
// everything is good
} else {
// hide the drawer
drawer.slideUp();
}
}
// update status bar
$("#status li").removeClass("active").eq(i).addClass("active");
});
// if tab is pressed on the next button seek to next page
root.find("button.next").keydown(function(e) {
if (e.keyCode == 9) {
// seeks to next tab by executing our validation routine
api.next();
e.preventDefault();
}
});
});
</script>
Have the radio button names all be the same. That groups them together. Then all you have to do is make the first one have checked="true"
<input name="question" type="radio" value="a" checked="true">a) New York<br>
<input name="question" type="radio" value="b">b) Washington DC<br>
<input name="question" type="radio" value="c">c) Seattle<br>
<input name="question" type="radio" value="d">d) Portland<br>
This makes them send at least one thing. Otherwise you have to check the selected value of the input.
Also all the text inputs could just have required attribute and that would make sure something is there. HTML5 has that as validation.
http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_input_required.asp
EDIT
Here's a fiddle I just made using jQuery. This is the true validation you want.
http://jsfiddle.net/slyfox13/H9Dw2/
Your radios should all have the same name. In the code about, you literally have 4 different inputs each as their own form data param, not 4 radio inputs affecting one form data param.
The input names not all need to be the same, i.e. and then check that the value of questionone is not null to validate
You have to give same name for all radio input tag.
like this
<div class="questionsone">
<input name="qstn1" type="radio" value="a">a) New York<br>
<input name="qstn1" type="radio" value="b">b) Washington DC<br>
<input name="qstn1" type="radio" value="c">c) Seattle<br>
<input name="qstn1" type="radio" value="d">d) Portland<br>
</div>
Set same name to all radio buttons since Radio buttons are there for a single choice.
<input name="questionone" type="radio" value="a">a) New York<br>
<input name="questionone" type="radio" value="b">b) Washington DC<br>
<input name="questionone" type="radio" value="c">c) Seattle<br>
<input name="questionone" type="radio" value="d">d) Portland<br>
Validation using jQuery:
if($("input[type=radio,name=questionone]:checked").length >0)
{
/* do something */
}
First you need to change your radio buttons names to all be the same thing. ex
<ul>
<li class="required">
<label>What is the U.S. Capital? Please select your answer below:</label>
<div class="questionsone">
<input name="question" type="radio" value="a">a) New York<br>
<input name="question" type="radio" value="b">b) Washington DC<br>
<input name="question" type="radio" value="c">c) Seattle<br>
<input name="question" type="radio" value="d">d) Portland<br>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
So that you will only be able to select one. Next you need to create a document.ready() function. Add this code to your document.ready()
$( document ).ready(function() {
function RadioTest(){
inputs = document.getElementsByName('question');
for (index = 0; index < inputs.length; ++index) {
if(inputs[index].checked!=true){
alert("radio not selected");
return false;
}
}
}
});

I want to store the correct answer(option) and the other 3 options as well. But for the other 3 options I will store those in database saying is_correct(column) 0/no/False. But for that, I'll have to have such logic that will figure out which radio button is for which input field. How do I bind/map a radio input field to a text input field?
I can, extract values out of these elements but can't figure out the logic.
<div id="option" class="form-group">
<input type="radio" name="option" required/><input type="text" name="option_1" required/><br/><br/>
<input type="radio" name="option" required/><input type="text" name="option_2" required/><br/><br/>
<input type="radio" name="option" required/><input type="text" name="option_3" required/><br/><br/>
<input type="radio" name="option" required/><input type="text" name="option_4" required/>
</div>
I just can't figure out the next step! Seen similar types of posts but not so similar tbh despite the concept being same.
First off, I really don't understand why you use radio buttons and a input text. In my opinion, just switch the input text to labels, or if you want the user to type the answer just give him 1 input text.
That being said, keeping the design you've made:
HTML:
<div id="options" class="form-group">
<input type="radio" id="option_text" required/><input type="text" id="option_1" required/><br/><br/>
<input type="radio" id="option_text2" required/><input type="text" id="option_2" required/><br/><br/>
<input type="radio" id="option_text3" required/><input type="text" id="option_3" required/><br/><br/>
<input type="radio" id="option_text4" required/><input type="text" id="option_4" required/>
<button type="submit" id="sub">
Press me
</button>
</div>
<div id="output1">
</div>
<div id="output2">
</div>
<div id="output3">
</div>
<div id="output4">
</div>
Javascript:
$("#sub").on('click',function(){
let eachone=[];
eachone[0]=$("#option_1").val();
eachone[1]=$("#option_2").val();
eachone[2]=$("#option_3").val();
eachone[3]=$("#option_4").val();
$("#output1").html(eachone[0]+" - "+$("#option_text").prop("checked"))
$("#output2").html(eachone[1]+" - "+$("#option_text2").prop("checked"))
$("#output3").html(eachone[2]+" - "+$("#option_text3").prop("checked"))
$("#output4").html(eachone[3]+" - "+$("#option_text4").prop("checked"))
})
If you want to alter something, or test for your exact test case, here is the fiddle
Jfiddle.
Note I'm using jQuery, just for ease of code, you can change most of the jquery references to document.getElementById
Edit:
Updated fiddle with checkboxes: JFiddle
Edit2:
Updated fiddle with single option checkboxes:
Jfiddle2
Warning: the event created might break some other input type checkboxes you have in your code!
First I think you should use the value attribute of the radioButtons instead of the second input, just put the text in a span or a label :
<input type="radio" id="option1" name="option" value="option1">
<label for="option1">8</label>
then you can get the selected value by doing:
var selectedOption = null;
if (document.getElementById('option1').checked) {
selectedOption = document.getElementById('option1').value;
}
After that, you can query the db to see if the selected option is correct or not.
How about instead of submitting the form with form data, you submit a JSON string/object?
So, your object for question can be something like
{
"question" : "How many planets orbit around the sun?",
"options" : [{
"name" : "1",
"value" : "7",
"isAnswer" : false
}, {
"name" : "2",
"value" : "8",
"isAnswer" : true
}]
}
Now, what's left is to create this object when the submit button is clicked.
To do that, you can have ids such as
<input type="radio" id="radio-1" name="option" required/>
<input type="text" id="text-1" required/>
These elements can be created dynamically, or manually if you are making the page just for a single question.
Now, when the button to submit the form, is clicked, you can run the below code which constructs a JSON object.
let question = {};
question.question = $("#question").val(); //Assuming you are using jQuery and id for question input box is question.
question.options = [];
for(i=0; i<4; i++) {
let option = {};
option.name = (i+1); //convert to ascii if you want alphabets
option.value = $("#text-"+(i+1)).val();
option.isAnswer = $("#radio-"+(i+1)).checked;
question.options.push(option);
}
You can now send this question object to your server.
<input type="radio" on-click="checkDefaultLanguage" id="checkbox" >
[[names(name)]]
this is my custom input field for radio and has dynamic values in it. I am trying to select one radio at a time and deselect from the others. but I cannot find any information for this. The one I have found are either with name attribute or having static input fields.
my JS
private checkDefaultLanguage() {
const checkboxes = <HTMLInputElement>this.querySelector('#checkbox');
checkboxes.addEventListener('click', () => {
if (checkboxes.checked) {
//what is should I do inside of it to make sure only one is selected at a time.
}
});
}
Just use name on the input, all input will get assigned to 1 group
<form>
<fieldset>
<legend>Select a maintenance drone</legend>
<div>
<input type="radio" id="huey" name="drone" checked />
<label for="huey">Huey</label>
</div>
<div>
<input type="radio" id="dewey" name="drone" />
<label for="dewey">Dewey</label>
</div>
<div>
<input type="radio" id="louie" name="drone" />
<label for="louie">Louie</label>
</div>
</fieldset>
</form>
tbh i dont fully understand what you are trying to do but you could pass the button you just clicked to the function
<input type="radio" on-click="checkDefaultLanguage(this)" id="checkbox" >
In your function you could just uncheck every box no matter if it's checked or not.
After this for-loop just check the one you passed to the function.
I am new in coding. I have two radio buttons. If a “yes” is selected in either from them a certain field (here kouAP) must be AUTOMATICALLY set to a value (in this case 0.56). The problems are:
how to make both radio buttons to set the value to a single field?
How to keep the wished value if one of the is “yes” and the other is “no”? No matter of the order of clicking.
My JQuery makes no sense :(
Thanks you
HTML
<label for="Pre002">ccs</lable>
<br />
<input type="radio" id="Pre002o" name="css" value="0">
<label for="Pre002o">none</label>
<input type="radio" id="Pre002d" name="css" value="4">
<label for="Pre002d">yes</label>
<br />
<label for="Pre066">mi</lable>
<br />
<input type="radio" id="Pre066a" name="mi" value="0">
<label for="Pre066a">yes</label>
<input type="radio" id="Pre066b" name="mi" value="1">
<label for="Pre066b">no</label>
<br />
<input id="kouAP" type=“text” name="kouAP" readonly="true" placeholder="kouAP">
<label for="kouAP">at least one yes</label>
JQuery
$('input[type=radio].css; input[type=radio].mi').click(function(e){
if ($(this).attr("id") == "Pre002d" || $(this).attr("id") == "Pre066a" ){
$("#kouAP").val(0.5677075);
}
else {
$("#kouAP").val(0);
}
});
There is nothing wrong with code.
Just provide the name of the element you listen the click from.
Replace:
$('input[type=radio].css; input[type=radio].mi').click(...);
With:
$('input').click(...);
or:
$('input[type=radio]').click(...);
to avoid future errors.
I just advice you to go through the basics again :)
EDIT
For the second question, I guess it's just a work around with if..else. Hope it helps.
$('input').click(function(e){
if ($('#Pre002d').is(':checked') || $('#Pre066a').is(':checked')){
$("#kouAP").val(0.5677075);
}
else{
$("#kouAP").val(0);
}
});
I cannot make the input name same or value same. The second and third inputs come from a loop using c# razor. I have 2 sets of radio inputs first one is one set and second and third are another set. Because the second and third have the same name, checking one makes the other unchecked. I want the same for all of them together so it would be like I have one set of 3 radio buttons. Like I said above I am not able to make the name or value same due to back-end data display issue. Here is my attempt below.
//first radio <br/>
<div class="radio">
<label>
<input id="dcenter-allradio" type="radio" value="0" />All
</label>
</div>
//this radio button is a loop <br>
<input type="radio" name="#Model.Facet.Key" value="#item.Key">tagitem.j
<div class="radio">
<label>
<input id="dcenter-listradio" type="radio" name="#Model.Facet.Key" value="#item.Key" />tagItem.Name
</label>
</div>
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
if ($('#dcenter-listradio').prop("checked", true)) {
$('#dcenter-allradio').prop("checked", false);
}
if ($('#dcenter-allradio').prop("checked", true)) {
$('#dcenter-listradio').prop("checked", false);
}
});
</script>
If you can give them all the same class, then you can just use jQuery to detect when a change has occurred and then uncheck other items in the same class.
$(document).ready(function() {
var selector = ".groupTogether";
// or if you can't give same class, you could use "#unrelatedRadio, input[name='related']"
$(selector).change(function()
{
if(this.checked)
{
$(selector).not(this).prop('checked', false);
}
});
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input id="unrelatedRadio" name="unrelated" type="radio" class="groupTogether">unrelated</input>
<input id="relatedA" name="related" type="radio" class="groupTogether">Related A</input>
<input id="relatedB" name="related" type="radio" class="groupTogether">Related B</input>
Or, if you can't give them the same class, just replace the selector with something that selects both sets (in my example, "#unrelatedRadio, input[name='related']")
let radios = document.querySelectorAll("input");
for (let i of radios){
i.name="same"
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
//first radio <br/>
<div class="radio">
<label>
<input id="dcenter-allradio" type="radio" value="0" />All
</label>
</div>
//this radio button is a loop <br>
<input type="radio" name="#Model.Facet.Key" value="#item.Key">tagitem.j
<div class="radio">
<label>
<input id="dcenter-listradio" type="radio" name="#Model.Facet.Key" value="#item.Key" />tagItem.Name
</label>
</div>
I want to create the conditions in the radio button.
so I'm making a survey app with jquery ajax. every question has the option (radio button) and the button next to to the next question. without changing link
I want to create the conditions in the radio button. If select YES then it will go to the next question. If you select NO then the next question will pass 2
can help me please?
have you tried doing an attribute on your radio button like arnum that will track the n^th number of radio button.
<div arnum="3">
<input type="radio" skipval="3" value="yes">
<input type="radio" skipval="1" value="no">
</div>
<div arnum="4">
<input type="radio" value="something">
<input type="radio" value="else">
</div>
then:
$('div[arnum] input[type=radio][skipval]').on('click',function(){
var skipval = parseInt($(this).attr('skipval'));
var arnum = parseInt($(this).parent().attr('arnum'));
arnum++;
for(;arnum<arnum+skipval;arnum++){
$('div[arnum='+arnum+']').attr('disable','disable');
}
$('div[arnum='+arnum+']').focus();
});
this code on click skips to the next question using skipval and disables everything in between.
y this:
<input type="radio" name="test" value="1" />yes<br />
<input type="radio" name="test" value="2" />no
<div id="question2" style="display:none">
<br />Question 2<br />
</div>
<script>
$('input[name=test]').change(function () {
if ($(this).val() == 1) {
$('#question2').show();
} else {
$('#question2').hide();
}
})
</script>
