[Javascript] Form Elements Show Through My Layer?

Sat Jun 23 13:53:47 CDT 2001

Jay,

	Possibly, but don't get your hopes up.  Form elements have a nasty habit of
showing up that way.

	You might try putting the form inside a layer and making that layer
invisible...

Regards,

Peter

|
|Hello,
|
|When I make a layer visible on top of a form element, the form element
|shows through.  Is there a browser-independent way of curing that one?
|
|Thanks.

|Subject: [Javascript] Email validation question
|Reply-To: javascript at LaTech.edu
|
|I'm having trouble finding the answer I need in my JavaScript books
|regarding client-side JavaScript validation.
|
|Typical email validation routines include:
|
|if (document.form.formfield.value.indexOf("@") == -1)
|
|However I need to make sure that a user doesn't enter 2 or more email
|addresses in the form field and this only tests to see if there are no @
|characters. How do I code it to test for 0 and 2 or more?
|
|Thanks

|Try a regular expression search for multiple occurrences of "@".
|
|var pattern = new RegExp("/@{2,}/");
|var fieldValue = "john at aol.com, kim at aol.com";
|var result = fieldValue.match(pattern);

|Hi,
|   I have a problem along this line as well. I have a page that allows
|users
|to update a field in a database. When the field has been updated the
|user is
|sent back using the history.back(); function. When they are sent back i
|want
|a hidden form to submit so it will refresh the page, with the updated
|information. I wanted to use the history.next property to check if the
|user
|came from the update page but it seems IE does not support this. Is
|there
|anyway to check what page the user came from to see whether the info has
|to
|be updated?

|Instead of history.back()
|why don't you redirect them and append a querystring to
|the page. In asp I'd do it like this
|

|response.redirect "first.asp?done=yes"

|
|I think it's easier to submit the form to the same page, where a script
|first stores the input in the database and then prints the HTML page,
|including the new info. This way you don't have these complex refresh
|problems.
|
|In fake syntax:
|
|<server side script>
|if (form submitted)
|{
|store value in databse
|}
|
|print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
|print "<HTML>etc.";
|print "<FORM METHOD=POST>"; // no ACTION, submits to itself
|print "<INPUT VALUE="<% get from database %>">";
|</server side script>
|
|If the user doesn't submit the form (if he enters the page through a
|normal
|link) he sees the old value, if he submits the form he sees the new
|value.

|Thanks. But, something has changed in my application design. I need to
|reload the page automatically as well as submiting some informartion to
|the
|database back end.
|
|So, what I really want is to be able to automatically submit every 30
|minutes, for example. How do I do that?
|
|MY first thought was to put the argument / query string in the URL, but
|I
|wonder if that's the only way, because I don't really want to
|necessarily
|display all my query string.
|
|Thanks a lot.

|
|Or a script that's called onLoad
|
|function submitIt()
|{
|setTimeout('document.forms[0].submit()',1800000)
|}
|
|(time in milliseconds)
