I have been looking at a few post on Stack trying to get a simple form validation working but all it does is disabled my submit button. Its meant to remove the disable once they've entered text inside the input field.
So Far
Jquery
$('input:submit').attr('disabled',true);
$('input').change(function(){
if($('input').val() != ''){
$('input:submit').attr('disabled',true);
} else {
$('input:submit').removeAttr('disabled');
});
HTML
<form action="send.php" method="post">
<input id="name" name="name" type="text" required placeholder="Name"/>
<input id="email" name="email" type="email" required placeholder="Enter a valid email address"/>
<input name="submit" id="subscribe" type="submit" value="Subscribe for free"/>
</form>
You should look for every input by using classes that are added to all fields that are requiered. If the user changes one of them and there is still no input, then the button while stay disabled:
jQuery:
$('input.required').change(function(){
if($(this).val() != ''){
$(this).removeClass('required',true);
}else{
$(this).addClass('required',true);
}
//check the length to enable or disable submit
if($(".required").length == 0){
$('#subscribe').attr('disabled',false);
}else{
$('#subscribe').attr('disabled',true);
}
});
html:
<form action="send.php" method="post">
<input id="name" name="name" type="text" class="required" placeholder="Name" />
<input id="email" name="email" type="email" class="required" placeholder="Enter a valid email address" />
<input name="submit" id="subscribe" type="submit" value="Subscribe for free" />
</form>
Here is a fiddle.
However keep in mind that this solution only works with javascript enabled.
I think you need to change your statements in if-else, let me know if you are trying something different apart from this--
$('input:submit').attr('disabled',true);
$('input').change(function(){
if($('input').val() != ''){
$('input:submit').removeAttr('disabled');
}else{
$('input:submit').attr('disabled',true);
}
});

Hey I have refined your code a bit, and its working as you intended
JS CODE:
$('#subscribe').attr('disabled',true);
$('input').change(function(){
if($('input').val() != ''){
$('#subscribe').attr('disabled',false);
}else{
//$('input:submit').removeAttr('disabled');
$('#subscribe').attr('disabled',true);
}
});
LIVE DEMO on JS Fiddle
happy Coding :)
Try Below code:
//$('input:submit').attr('disabled',true);
$('input').change(function(){
if($('input').val() != ''){ alert(1);
$('input:submit').attr('disabled',false);
}else{alert(2);
$('input:submit').attr('disabled', true);
}
});
Code: http://jsfiddle.net/WchJ9/
You got to swap statements in if-else block. Also use $(this) to get the source of event.
Live Demo
$('input:submit').attr('disabled', true);
$('input').change(function () {
if ($(this).val() !== '') {
$('input:submit').attr('disabled', false);
} else {
$('input:submit').prop('disabled', true);
}
});
if you want to check that all text field must not be empty then you have to iterate through all inputs. You should assign class to get sepecific textboxes instead of getting all on page. You can use class selector to get elements by class.
Live Demo
$('input:submit').attr('disabled', true);
$('.cls').change(function () {
blankFields = $('.cls').filter(function () {
return this.value == '';
});
if (blankFields.length === 0) $('input:submit').attr('disabled', false);
else $('input:submit').prop('disabled', true);
});

I have a form and enabling the submit button after fill the all the fields in the form. I used jquery to disable the button also use the disabled="disabled" in the submit button. Now I am on the browser and button is showing disabled.
Now What I did, Right clicked and inspect elements and goes to my register button and I remove the disabled=" disabled" from the HTML and my button got enable without filling the details and I clicked no button form submitted.
I just want to know Is there any other solution to handle this issue? because anyone can enable this and access it without filling the form.
Would you help me out in this?
(function() {
$('form > input').keyup(function() {
var empty = false;
$('form > input').each(function() {
if ($(this).val() == '') {
empty = true;
}
});
if (empty) {
$('#register').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
} else {
$('#register').removeAttr('disabled');
}
});
})()
<form>
Username<br />
<input type="text" id="user_input" name="username" /><br />
Password<br />
<input type="password" id="pass_input" name="password" /><br />
Email<br />
<input type="text" id="email" name="email" /><br />
<input type="submit" id="register" value="Register" disabled="disabled" />
</form>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
The disabled property is good but its more or less cosmetics.
There is a simple way to prevent a form submit using JavaScript submit Event handler. You check for a condition to be met - otherwise you cancel the submission.
You can prevent form submit by simply modifying your function to this:
(function() {
$('form > input').keyup(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var empty = false;
$('form > input').each(function() {
if ($(this).val() == '') {
empty = true;
}
});
if (empty) {
$('#register').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
} else {
$('#register').removeAttr('disabled');
}
});
})()
I'm trying to check if the textbox is empty for my form. However, whenever I try to hit submit instead of an alert box message, telling me Firstname is empty I get "Please fill out filled".
('#submit').click(function() {
if ($('#firstname').val() == '') {
alert('Firstname is empty');
}
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="elem" autocomplete="on">
First Name:
<br>
<input type="text" name="firstname" id="firstname" required placeholder="Enter the first name" pattern="[A-Za-z\-]+" maxlength="25"><br>
<input type="submit" id="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
Firstly I'm assuming that the missing $ is just a typo in the question, as you state that you see the validation message appear.
The reason you're seeing the 'Please fill out this field' notification is because you've used the required attribute on the field. If you want to validate the form manually then remove that attribute. You will also need to hook to the submit event of the form, not the click of the button and prevent the form submission if the validation fails, something like this:
$('#elem').submit(function(e) {
if ($('#firstname').val().trim() == '') {
e.preventDefault();
alert('Firstname is empty');
}
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="elem" autocomplete="on">
First Name:
<br>
<input type="text" name="firstname" id="firstname" placeholder="Enter the first name" pattern="[A-Za-z\-]+" maxlength="25"><br>
<input type="submit" id="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
Personally I'd suggest you use the required attribute as it saves all of the above needless JS code - unless you need more complex logic than just checking all required fields have been given values.
Because you have the required property set.It is giving you Please fill out field validation as the error message.It is the validation that HTML5 is performing.
For this please make one function like :
function Checktext()
{
if ($('#firstname').val() == '') {
alert('Firstname is empty');
return false;
}
else
{
return true;
}
}
now call this function on submit button click like :
<input type="submit" id="submit" value="Submit" onclick="return check();" />
I am trying to write a very simple jQuery function which will have two main properties. The first one will be to check if the field is empty or not. The second one will be if the field is not empty to execute a form which will lead to a PHP coded page. I am very new to jQuery and I will be very grateful if someone can point where exactly is my mistake. Thank you in advance.
function Captcha() {
$('#Button').click(function() {
if ($("#Field").val().length == 0) {
alert("Please fill the box");
return false;
} else {
alert("Your code is saved");
return true;
}
});
}
$(document).ready(function() {
Captcha();
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form action="success.php" id="Alpha" method="post" onsubmit="return Captcha();">
<input id="Field" type="text" placeholder="Enter key here">
<button id="Button" type="submit" form="Alpha">Confirm</button>
</form>
Don't work with the button's click event, work with the form's submit event because a form can be submitted via the keyboard and therefore the button can be circumvented.
You can see a working version here (Stack Overflow prevents submit code from working in the snippet environment below.)
$(function() {
$('#Alpha').on("submit", function() {
if ($("#Field").val().length == 0) {
alert("Please fill the box");
return false;
} else {
alert("Your code is saved");
return true;
}
});
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form action="success.php" id="Alpha" method="post" onsubmit="return Captcha();">
<input id="Field" type="text" placeholder="Enter key here">
<button id="Button" type="submit" form="Alpha">Confirm</button>
</form>
You would want to validate the form fields when you actually submit the form. When you click on the button you are still in the process of triggering the submit.
Try changing this:
$('#Button').click(function() {
Into this:
$('#Alpha').on('submit', function() {
See if that helps.
I have a simple form, with one issue.
In explorer, if nothing is inserted, the placeholder is passed as input of the field.
Here is JSbin: http://jsbin.com/EvohEkO/1/
I would like to make a simple comparision, when form is submitted, to check if the value of the field is equal to "First name", and if yes make the value empty ""
Just this i need.
Someone can help me please?
<form onsubmit="return checkform()">
<input name="test" placeholder="placeholdertext" id="test" />
<input type="submit" value="submitbutton"/>
</form>
in js
you should import jquery latest version this is the link: http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js
function checkform(){
var fieldvalue = $.trim($('#test').val());
if(!fieldvalue || fieldvalue=="placeholdertext"){
alert('there is no input');
return false;
}else{
alert('enjoy your form!');
return true;
}
}
This is somewhat easier..
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#form").submit(function(){
$('#form input:text, textarea').each(function() {
if($(this).val()==$(this).attr('placeholder'))
$(this).val(" ");
});
});
});
Just put your field value in hidden type input like this :-
<input id="hdnfield" name="hdnfield" value="<Your Field Value>" />
To check the value of a form field use the val() function on the input element
var input_value = jQuery('Input Element Selector').val();
As I looked to your form, the elements do not have any id attribute, I recommend that you add one to each of them, also change the submit input to button the you have more control on the javascript. so your form will look like :
<form id="form" action="form.php" method="post">
<input id="fname" type="text" placeholder="First name" name="fname"><br>
<label for="fname" id="fnamelabel"></label>
<input id="lname"type="text" placeholder="Last name" name="lname"><br>
<textarea id="message" placeholder="Contact us!" cols="30" rows="5" name="message"></textarea><br>
<br>
<input type="button" value="Submit">
</form>
so your jQuery will look like:
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery('input[type="button"]').click(function(){
var fname = jQuery('#fname').val();
var lname = jQuery('#lname').val();
var message = jQuery('#message').val();
...... Do whatever you need & then change the input values
...... if all validation has passed the use jQuery('#form').submit(); to submit the form otherwise reset the form:
jQuery('#fname').val("");
jQuery('#lname').val("");
jQuery('#message').val("");
});
});
here is a working version:
jsfiddle working link
You can do it like the following!
<form>
<input type="text" id="first_name" name="first_name"/>
<input type="submit" id="submit" value="submit"/>
</form>
<script type="type/javascript"/>
jQuery.noConflict();
(function ($) {
$(function () {
$("#submit").click(function () {
if ($("#first_name").val() == "first name") {
$(this).val("");
}
});
});
})(jQuery);
</script>
I have the following form and javascript:
<script type="text/javascript">
function toggleButton(ref,bttnID){
document.getElementById(bttnID).disabled= ((ref.value !== ref.defaultValue) ? false : true);
}
</script>
<form action="" method="post" id="subscribe" name="subscribe">
<label>NAME:</label>
<input type="text" name="name" class="subName" onkeyup="toggleButton(this,'bttnsubmit');">
<label>EMAIL:</label>
<input type="text" name="email" class="subEmail" id="sub_email">
<input type="button" name="button" value="Subscribe" disabled='disabled' id='bttnsubmit'/>
</form>
When I first load my site the SUBMIT button is disabled, as I wanted, since the text field has no text in it. Now I would like to enable the button once some text has been placed within the text field.
Any help please?
The existing code in the question worked fine, but gets disabled when the text is removed. This may be desired by others but you could make a small change to have it permanently removed without needing jquery (jquery wasn't in the tags)
function toggleButton(ref,bttnID){
document.getElementById(bttnID).removeAttribute("disabled");
}
and add onkeyup="toggleButton(this,'bttnsubmit') to any fields that need to enable the button
Using jQuery:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#bttnsubmit').attr('disabled','disabled');
$('input[type="text"]').keyup(function() {
if($(this).val() != '') {
$('input[type="submit"]').removeAttr('disabled');
}
});
});
source: jQuery disable/enable submit button
Adding the final code that did the trick:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#bttnsubmit').attr('disabled','disabled');
$('#subEmail').keyup(function() {
if($(this).val() != '') {
$('#bttnsubmit').removeAttr('disabled');
}
else {
$('#bttnsubmit').attr('disabled','disabled');
}
});
});
</script>
