I have a form which contains couple fields. Its very easy to validate this form. But when I'm using append or clone comand and add couple more fields in it dynamically I cannot validate the appended fields.
Here is the my code:
function addone(container, new_div) {
var to_copy = document.getElementById(new_div);
$(to_copy).clone(true).insertAfter(to_copy);
}
And because it doesn't matter which fields and I want all of them get field out I used class instead of id.
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#add_size').live('click', function(){
if($('.inp').val() == "") {
alert('Need to fill-out all fields')
}
else {
alert('Thanks')
}
})
})
Any idea? Thanks in advance.
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#add_size').live('click', function(){
if( ! checkvalid() ) {
alert('Need to fill-out all fields')
}
else {
alert('Thanks')
}
})
})
function checkvalid(){
var valid = true;
$('.inp').each(function(){
if (this.value == '') {
valid = false;
return;
}
})
return valid;
}
I see one thing that might cause you trouble...:
If you're only going to check fields for validity on submit, then I don't think you need the live handler. You're not adding fields with #add_size, you're adding .inp's. Just do your validations on click, and jQuery should find all the .inp class fields that are there at the time of the event:
$('#add_size').click(function(
$('.inp').each ...
)};
Or maybe I totally read the question wrong...

I'm having an issue with my validation process. I'm not using a standard "submit" button, rather I have <span class="button" id="print">Print</span> and jQuery listens for a click. This is the validation code I have when that "button" is clicked:
var validation = "";
function validate() {
$("#servDetails").find("input").each(function () {
if ($(this).prop("required") && $(this).val() == "") {
validation = false;
}
else {
validation = true;
}
});
$("#checklist").find("input[required]").each(function () {
if ($(this).prop("required") && $(this).val() == "") {
validation = false;
}
else {
validation = true;
}
});
}
$("#print").on("click", function() {
validate();
if (validation == false) {
alert("Please fill out all required inputs!");
return false;
}
else {
window.print();
}
});
If I click the button without filling anything out (all items blank), I get my alert as expected.
If I fill out all of the required elements, it pulls up the print dialouge as expected.
However, if I leave some of the boxes blank while others are correctly filled, it still goes to print instead of giving me the alert like I need. Any thoughts?
The code have to be rewritten, or better replace it with any validation plug-in.
But in your case, I suppose, you just forgot to return, in case you found some not filled field. So if you have any filled input it override your validation variable.
The simplest solution is to remove
else {validation = true;} code blocks, and add
validation = true;
at the beggining of the function.
i have a form with few input fields with class "inputfields" need to validate each field if empty alert 'fieldname is empty' otherwise return true my jquery code is not working keep getting errors at the console log can any one help please ?
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
$('.inputfields').each.on('change keyup' ,function(){
var ope = $(this).attr('name');
if (ope.val()==''){
alert(ope+'is empty');
}else {
console.log(ope);
}
});
});
I believe you want to check different types of input fields, hence want to use change and keyup.
I tried something based on your code, but this following solution will only work, if you want to validate text type input fields. For select or other input types you have to put some more checks inside the loop or have to some other way to validate.
$('.inputfields').each(function() {
$(this).bind('change keyup', function() {
var ope = $(this).attr('name');
if ($(this).val() == '') {
console.log(ope+'is empty');
} else {
console.log(ope+ ' : ' + $(this).val());
}
});
});
Hope this will lead you to find your desired solution.
I have a form which is split up into sections using pagination on each tag. (See Fiddle)
I however have required fields in each section, I'd like to validate it so that fields with the "required" attribute must not be blank before the user moves on to the next section.
http://jsfiddle.net/Azxjt/
I've tried to following but don't think I'm on the right tracks:
$(this).closest("article > :input").each(function() {
if($(this).val == null) {
con = 0;
}
});
if ( con == 0 ) {
alert("All fields must be filled in");
}
else {
}
Your help is appreciated :)
Text input will return a black value if no response has been entered. Try the following
In jQuery, the value is returned by val()
$(this).val() == ""
You could possibly enhance your jQuery selector to test only those input elements with a corresponding required label.
Use each function.
var isEmpty;
$("input").each(function() {
var element = $(this);
if (element.val() == "") {
isEmpty= true;
}
});
The code below checks if every form field is filled with and then automatically submits it. How can I make sure that instead of checking every field, it only checks the fields with class "must_be_filled"?
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#search >:input").keyup(function() {
var $emptyFields = $('#search :input').filter(function() {
return $.trim(this.value) === "";
});
if (!$emptyFields.length) {
document.getElementById('submit_button').click();
}
});
});
Just replace
$('#search :input')
with
$('#search :input.must_be_filled')
Anyone know of a good tutorial/method of using Javascript to, onSubmit, change the background color of all empty fields with class="required" ?
Something like this should do the trick, but it's difficult to know exactly what you're looking for without you posting more details:
document.getElementById("myForm").onsubmit = function() {
var fields = this.getElementsByClassName("required"),
sendForm = true;
for(var i = 0; i < fields.length; i++) {
if(!fields[i].value) {
fields[i].style.backgroundColor = "#ff0000";
sendForm = false;
}
else {
//Else block added due to comments about returning colour to normal
fields[i].style.backgroundColor = "#fff";
}
}
if(!sendForm) {
return false;
}
}
This attaches a listener to the onsubmit event of the form with id "myForm". It then gets all elements within that form with a class of "required" (note that getElementsByClassName is not supported in older versions of IE, so you may want to look into alternatives there), loops through that collection, checks the value of each, and changes the background colour if it finds any empty ones. If there are any empty ones, it prevents the form from being submitted.
Here's a working example.
Perhaps something like this:
$(document).ready(function () {
$('form').submit(function () {
$('input, textarea, select', this).foreach(function () {
if ($(this).val() == '') {
$(this).addClass('required');
}
});
});
});
I quickly became a fan of jQuery. The documentation is amazing.
http://docs.jquery.com/Downloading_jQuery
if You decide to give the library a try, then here is your code:
//on DOM ready event
$(document).ready(
// register a 'submit' event for your form
$("#formId").submit(function(event){
// clear the required fields if this is the second time the user is submitting the form
$('.required', this).removeClass("required");
// snag every field of type 'input'.
// filter them, keeping inputs with a '' value
// add the class 'required' to the blank inputs.
$('input', this).filter( function( index ){
var keepMe = false;
if(this.val() == ''){
keepMe = true;
}
return keepMe;
}).addClass("required");
if($(".required", this).length > 0){
event.preventDefault();
}
});
);
