When I'm trying to disable dynamically, it's not disabled..
document.getElementById('selectId').disabled=true
document.getElementById('selectId').disabled=true. should be:
document.getElementById('selectId').disabled=true;
Some extra info because of the error in my first answer:
The disabled attribute can accept any value.
As long as this attribute is present, the element will be disabled regardless of its value.
<input type="text" value="This is disabled" disabled>
<input type="text" value="This is disabled" disabled="disabled">
<input type="text" value="This is disabled" disabled="true">
<input type="text" value="This is disabled" disabled="false">
<input type="text" value="This is not disabled">
Although in scripting, it is different.
document.formname.elementname.disabled = true; //disabled
document.formname.elementname.disabled = false; //enabled
The same is true for these attributes:
checked (radio button and checkbox)
selected (option)
nowrap (td)
As noted in this documentation for struts, the "disabled" attribute of a select element is of type "String", I would at least try putting .disable="disabled;" in your code and seeing if that works.
The other solution I've found to a Struts vs. HTML problem was here. The solution was to use the attribute theme='simple' in the element tag(your tag or one of it's containers in this case). That let HTML do its functions over Struts trying to do its functions when it comes to display. I suggest this answer because you may be having a behind-the-scenes issue where Struts doesn't like the HTML "disabled" attribute you are trying to use and it doesn't fire properly. So try adding theme='simple' (or some other theme) and see if anything changes.

You know how when you open a new tab, you can start typing without having to select the search bar? I've got a text input box in HTML, and I'd like to be able to open my webpage and have that text input box immediately typeable, for lack of a better term. Say my input box looks like this:
<input type="text" class="myInput" value="add an item"></input>
I'm using HTML, CSS and JavaScript/jQuery right now. What code can I add to make sure the text input box is immediately typeable?
Use autofocus:
<input type="text" class="myInput" value="add an item" autofocus/>
From the input documentation on MDN:
This Boolean attribute lets you specify that a form control should have input focus when the page loads, unless the user overrides it (e.g. by typing in a different control). Only one form element in a document can have the autofocus attribute, which is a Boolean. It cannot be applied if the type attribute is set to hidden (that is, you cannot automatically set focus to a hidden control). Note that the focusing of the control may occur before the firing of the DOMContentLoaded event.
<input type="text" class="myInput" value="add an item" autofocus>
https://www.w3schools.com/TAgs/att_input_autofocus.asp
in html use autofocus, in jquery use $('.myInput').focus()
I have an input field like below
<input class="d_o" type="radio" value="super" name="old_or_new" checked="checked"> Get this value actually</input><br/>
I have to get the value of the input field i.e., Get this value actually, so tried the below jquery code
console.log($('.d_o').text());
But i am surprised that its returning nothing, and its working when tried to get the value like $('.d_o').val()
So how to get the text value from the above input field using jquery am i missing anything ?
The entirety of your <input> element is
<input class="d_o" type="radio" value="super" name="old_or_new" checked="checked">
The text that's after it, and the invalid html </input> are completely different nodes in the DOM tree. So val returns the value "super" as expected, but there's no text for text to return.
The .text() method cannot be used on form inputs or scripts
http://api.jquery.com/text/
Although I am not sure what approach jQuery follows on this : One explanation can be the "Content Model" specification of each HTMLElement .
Content model
A normative description of what content must be included as children and descendants of the element.
For example :
For Input type : http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/forms.html#the-input-element
Content model:Empty.
However for Title Element this is defined as
Content model : Text
http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/document-metadata.html#the-title-element
Eager to see the validations on this postulate :)
<input class="d_o" type="radio" value="super" name="old_or_new" checked="checked"> Get this value actually</input><br/>
This is not the correct way to handle the <input> tag. You should use :checked and .val() instead:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#hey').on('click', function(event){
alert($('.check:checked').val());
});
});
<h2>Select old or new</h2><br>
<b>Old</b>:<br>
<input type="radio" class="check" name="old_or_new" value="old"><br>
<br>
<b>New</b>:<br>
<input type="radio" class="check" name="old_or_new" value="new"><br>
<br>
<input type="button" id="hey">

I have a function that calculate price for a product. I'm not JavaScript developer so my knowledge is very limited.
By changing the value in the text field script calculate price for product.
<input type="text" value="" name="options[22]" class="input-text"
onfocus="opConfig.reloadPrice()">
Problem is that the script triggers only if the following is done:
insert value into the textfield
click somewhere outside the textfield
click back into the text field
All I need is a button saying refresh that by clicking it will have functionality of step 2 and step above.
I'm not sure if I explained it properly so if there is any more information required to resolve this issue please let me know.
Here is the link to the site.
http://www.floorstodoors.mldemo.co.uk/spotlight/oak-value-lacquered-3-strip.html
The field im trying to amend/add refresh button is Enter Square Metre
You'd add your event to a button, and retrieve a reference to your input by assigning an ID:
<input type="text" value="" name="options[22]" id="price" class="input-text" />
<input type="button" value="Refresh" onclick="reloadPrice();" />
function reloadPrice() {
var price = "0.00"; // set your price here
// get a ref to your element and assign value
var elem = document.getElementById("price");
elem.value = price;
}
I'm not sure I fully understand you, but is this what you need?
<input type="text" value="" name="options[22]" class="input-text">
<input type="button" onclick="opConfig.reloadPrice()" value="Refresh" />
A button with an click-event listener, so that when you click the refresh-button the opConfig.reloadPrice() method gets executed.
Edit based on comment:
I'm not sure what JavaScript library you are using, but you have these two lines in you code that seems to add event-listeners to the input with id qty.
$('qty').observe('focus',function(){
$('qty').setValue($('qty').getValue().replace(/[^0-9]/g,''));
});
$('qty').observe('focus',this.getFromQties.bind(this))
They are listening for the focus event, thus only triggers when your input field gains focus.
If you modify those to listen for the keyup event instead, I believe it will work better. Without being familiar with the framework, I guess the only thing to change would be this:
$('qty').observe('keyup',function(){
$('qty').setValue($('qty').getValue().replace(/[^0-9]/g,''));
});
$('qty').observe('keyup',this.getFromQties.bind(this))
Use onchange or onblur instead of onfocus!
use onchange. This will activate anytime the value changes:
<input type="text" value="" name="options[22]" class="input-text" onchange="opConfig.reloadPrice()">
First: this is JavaScript and not Java - so you have to be a javascript and not a java developer.
to solve your problem you can make a new button with a onclick attribute and execute your function there which you have in your onfocus attribute in the text-field.
or you can take another event - like onchange or onblur for instance..
<input type="text" onchange="..yourfunctionhere...">

All I need is a button saying refresh that by clicking it will have functionality
For that you need a button with onclick listener,
do the below things.
<input type="button" value="Refresh" onclick="opConfig.reloadPrice();" />
<input type="text" value="" name="options[22]" class="input-text"/>
Short Question:
How do you link a label element to an input element without using the input element's id using jQuery and javascript?
Long Question:
I am using jQuery to clone a form with possibly more than one instance of the form being available for the user to fill in.
A label's 'for' attribute is supposed to be set to the 'id' attribute of the input element that it is for. This works when the input element has a unique id.
Because I am cloning the same input element there will be multiple input elements with the same id in the document. Therefore I'm avoiding having id attributes for input elements but I'd still like to focus on the input element when the label is clicked. I also want to avoid generating random ids for fields or setting onclick events on labels.
Edit #1
Example mark up (note no ids)
<form>
<label>First Name:</label><input type='text' name='FirstName' /><br/>
<label>Last Name:</label><input type='text' name='LastName' /><br/>
</form>
Example cloning code:
var newForm = $('form').clone();
$(newForm).find('label').each(function(){
var inputElement = $(this).next('input');
// I'd love to set the label's for attribute to an element
$(this).attr('for', inputElement);
});
$(document).append(newForm);
Edit #2
There currently are three options:
Set onclick events for labels to focus on the input field they're for. Criteria for deciding which labels are for which inputs can be the next input element or something else
Embed the input fields in the label fields (might not be possible due to designer's choices)
Generate random ids while cloning each form
Well it would be nice to see the markup, but if i can assume that the markup will look somewhat like this
<form name="f1">
<label>this is my label</label>
<input />
<label>this is my other label</label>
<input />
</form>
<form name="f2">
<label>this is my label</label>
<input />
<label>this is my other label</label>
<input />
</form>
then you could do something like this
$('form label').live('click',function(){
$(this).next('input').focus();
});
you will need to use live or delegate since you're cloning the forms on the fly i'm assuming.
The simplest solution is to move the <input> tags inside the <label> tags and forgo the for attribute altogether. Per the HTML spec, <input> tags without for attributes are implicitly associated with their contents.
Try this:
<form>
<label>First Name: <input type='text' name='FirstName' /></label><br/>
<label>Last Name: <input type='text' name='LastName' /></label><br/>
</form>
(See: http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.9.1)
You shouldn't have multiple identical ids in the page. It defeats the purpose of the id attribute and is against the W3C spec.
Regardless, jQuery's $(this) could help you in this situation. Say you gave all your the "focusable" class. Then you could do:
$('.focusable').focus( function(){
$(this).doSomething();
});
This is really an HTML question. A label can be associated wtih a form control either by its for attribute having the same value as the associated control's id attribute, or by having the control as a child of the label, e.g.
<form ...>
<label for="nameField">Name:<input id="nameField" name="nameField" ... ></label>
<label>email:<input name="emailField" ... ></label>
</form>
I suppose in jQuery you need something like:
var labelAndInput = $('<label>text<input ... ></label>');
or whatever. Note that older versions of IE (and maybe more recent ones too) the label will not be associated with the control without the for attribute (or htmlFor property), there is no other way.
I have a form like this:
<form name="mine">
<input type=text name=one>
<input type=text name=two>
<input type=text name=three>
</form>
When user types a value in 'one', I sometimes want to skip the field 'two', depending on what he typed. For example, if user types '123' and uses Tab to move to next field, I want to skip it and go to field three.
I tried to use OnBlur and OnEnter, without success.
Try 1:
<form name="mine">
<input type=text name=one onBlur="if (document.mine.one.value='123') document.three.focus();>
<input type=text name=two>
<input type=text name=three>
</form>
Try 2:
<form name="mine">
<input type=text name=one>
<input type=text name=two onEnter="if (document.mine.one.value='123') document.three.focus();>
<input type=text name=three>
</form>
but none of these works. Looks like the browser doesn't allow you to mess with focus while the focus is changing.
BTW, all this tried with Firefox on Linux.
Try to attach tabindex attribute to your elements and then programmaticaly (in javaScript change it):
<INPUT tabindex="3" type="submit" name="mySubmit">
You could use the onfocus event on field two, which will be called when it receives focus. At that point, field 1's value should be updated and you can perform your check then.
If you used the method you describe, and they worked, the focus would also change when the user clicks on the field, instead of tabbing to it. I can guarantee you that this would result in a frustrated user. (Why exactly it doesn't work is beyond me.)
Instead, as said before, change the tabindex of the appropriate fields as soon as the content of field one changes.
<form name="mine">
<input type="text" name="one" onkeypress="if (mine.one.value == '123') mine.three.focus();" />
<input type="text" name="two">
<input type="text" name="three">
</form>
Try onkeypress instead of onblur. Also, on the onfocus of field two is where you should be sending to three. I'm assuming you don't want them typing in two if one is 123 so you can just check that on two's onfocus and send on to three.
