Re: [PHP] Javascript and $_POST
You guys are going to kill me! I found my problemand it's one of those
"What the hell were you thinking" issues.
Within my form was a "button" but I stupidly made it a submit when I created
it and therefore the javascript check for submit was finding my button first
and dumping the error.
So, in summary:
function checkForm( )
{
document.FormName.submit();
}
*DOES *work and will pass your $_POST values between pages as long as you
don't make a novice mistake like I did.

Sorry about the "*"s everywhere (there aren't supposed to be any). I
pasted the code in, and Thunderbird thought it was supposed to be bold
for some reason, then converted the bold text to text with "*"s
everywhere while sending as plain-text only.

Re: [PHP] Javascript and $_POST
Don't see how this can pass the check without document.
if (inputForm.cc_phone_number.value == "") {
alert( "Please enter a phone number." );
inputForm.cc_phone_number.focus();
return;
}
Comming to this check already gives an error.
Maybe ask on some Javascript list.
P.s. reply to the list please.

Of course, all of your form fields need to be inside the same
tags as your submit button. The sample HTML you posted
did not indicate that you'd done this.

Re: [PHP] Javascript and $_POST
There is nothing wrong with the way you want to submit this form.
Although it's JS :) The sample code you posted was broken in some ways...
missing document. in JS en missing input field to check.
This sample works fine ...
test.html
function checkForm() {
if (document.inputForm.cc_phone_number.value == "") {
alert( "Please enter a phone number." );
document.inputForm.cc_phone_number.focus();
return;
}
document.inputForm.submit();
}
Submit a New Payment.
Save
Close
save.phhp
Think some other code or JS errors might stop the form from sending data.

well, you should be right...
but I remember a year ago or so I had a similar problem and the image
input solved it... but I'm not sure whether it was exactly the same
problem or not, so it might be complete bullshit ;)

maybe because you don't have submit button in the form?

where spacer.gif is an 1x1 blank image
I remember some similar situation where it helped, but I'm not sure
hope that helps

Re: [PHP] Javascript and $_POST
Okay, I edited my page per some suggestions here. Below is what I now have:
function checkForm() {
// ** START **
if (inputForm.cc_phone_number.value == "") {
alert( "Please enter a phone number." );
inputForm.cc_phone_number.focus();
return;
}
**Lots of other checks here, just left out for length**
document.inputForm.submit();
}
Submit a New Payment.
**Lots of form data here**
Save
Close
Now when I submit my page it still perfroms all of the javascript checks
correctly, but once it gets to the document.inputForm.submit(); part it
returns the following error.
Error: Object doesn't support this property or method.
Code: 0

Of course, all of your form fields need to be inside the same
tags as your submit button. The sample HTML you posted
did not indicate that you'd done this.

Dan Shirah wrote: And this is my Save option at the bottom of my page Save ErWhy aren't there any input elements within the tag? Maybe you just condensed-out the inputs, but if your inputs aren't within the form, they won't be submitted. E.g. if you have: ... If you submit "submitForm", nothing will get posted. You want to post "dataForm" in the above example. (Or whatever "inputForm" happens to be in your example.) jon -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

document.inputForm.submit();
