I've got a little problem: I have an Edit View with this time-picker inside
<label for="mytimeedit">Time</label>
<input name="Time" id="mytimeedit" type="text" data-role="datebox" data-options='{"mode": "timebox", "overrideTimeFormat": 24}'>
#Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.Time)
Then (in the same view) I have this script to replace every ":" character inserted on the early described text input with a comma (","):
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#mytimeedit").change(function () {
var val = $("#mytimeedit").val();
$("#mytimeedit").val(val.replace(':', ','));
});
</script>
Everything worked, until I had to insert a data-ajax=false attribute (and I cannot remove it, for the consistency of my site) in the link calling the Edit controller: this way the replacing doesn't work anymore.
My question is: is there a way to "translate"/rewrite my script avoiding Ajax, which is now disabled?
Hope for your help,thanks!

Using bootstrap 5, specifically going over this: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/forms/form-control/
I am trying to create a simple example text area with some text in it pre-populated, so that I can add a button that will copy the propulated text into clipboard.
Method 1-
Sample code from Bootstrap looks like this:
<div class="mb-3">
<label for="exampleFormControlTextarea1" class="form-label">Example textarea</label>
<textarea class="form-control" id="exampleFormControlTextarea1" rows="3"></textarea>
</div>
If I use something like 'placeholder' the text box gets prepopulated but I can't "grab" that text neither manually or via a js script. The placeholder my understaning is just a hint of what is to be filled out in the box.
Method 2-
If I used for example a regular HTML textarea element I can do this, no problem, with something like this:
<textarea id="textbox" rows="3" cols="80">{{prepopulated_date_variable}}</textarea><br />
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary"onclick="copyTextBoxData()">Copy Copy Data</button>
So if I use a regular "textbox" like in Method 2, it does not leverage the cool look and resizing capabilities of bootstrap, hence why I am trying to get Method 1- or similar to work.
Any queues? tips? maybe another element?
I am new to this all, but the concept is that I am passing from a another piece of code the prepopulated data for user to see (leveraging Jinja template with Python if that makes any difference) and then idea is that button allows my user to copy to mem clipboard what is in the text box, so that they can past in something else.
Appreciate any support or ideas.
I am using Method 2- described in problem statement. What I am expecting is that I can use Method 1 or alternative with bootstrap component to leverabe the styling and features of bootstrap.
You can use JavaScript to set the value of the form inputs when the page loads.
This code creates a form with two inputs (email and password) and a button that, when clicked, copies the values of the inputs to the clipboard. The copyToClipboard function uses the document.getElementById method to get the values of the inputs, concatenates them into a string, creates a temporary input element, sets its value to the string, selects it, and then executes the document.execCommand("copy") command to copy the value to the clipboard. Finally, it removes the temporary input element and alerts the user that the data has been copied.
function copyToClipboard() {
var email = document.getElementById("exampleInputEmail1").value;
var password = document.getElementById("exampleInputPassword1").value;
var data = "Email: " + email + "\nPassword: " + password;
var tempInput = document.createElement("input");
tempInput.style = "position: absolute; left: -1000px; top: -1000px";
tempInput.value = data;
document.body.appendChild(tempInput);
tempInput.select();
document.execCommand("copy");
document.body.removeChild(tempInput);
alert("Copied to clipboard: " + data);
}

I am using jQuery UI controlgroup to style checkboxes in an HTML form. After the input values are processed by a PHP script, the results are displayed on the the same page along with the form itself, so that the user can adjust the filters. What I am trying to do, is to have the boxes that were checked previously remain checked after the form has been processed, so that the user sees what selection criteria were used. To achieve that I store all the PHP $_POST data in a JS variable using json_encode, which I'd like to use to iterate through the labels and mark those that were checked previously. The problem is that the only option of the controlgroup widget that I can use is classes with ui-controlgroup-item which shows every single label within the group as active, and for the life of me I cannot figure out how to make it conditional, e.g. so that I can use if(label[for=' + var.value +'])', var being <?php echo json_encode($_POST) ?> or something similar. Will appreciate any suggestions.
Here is the HTML:
<div id="currencyList">
<label for="gbp">GBP</label>
<input type="checkbox" value="gbp" name="currency[]" id="gbp" >
<label for="usd">USD</label>
<input type="checkbox" value="usd" name="currency[]" id="usd">
<label for="eur">EUR</label>
<input type="checkbox" value="eur" name="currency[]" id="eur">
</div>
And this is the JavaScript bit:
$( "#currencyList" ).controlgroup({
classes: {
"ui-controlgroup-item": "ui-checkboxradio-checked ui-state-active"
}
});
After trying to find a solution for several days I decided to skip trying via the classes option and instead to move outside the controlgroup widget. So here is my not-so-pretty-but-working solution:
var postData = <?php echo json_encode($_POST) ?>;
$( "#currencyList" ).controlgroup();
$('#currencyList').children('label').each(function () {
if(postData.currency.indexOf($(this).attr("for")) >= 0){
$(this).addClass( "ui-checkboxradio-checked ui-state-active");
}
});
In iOS 8 and above, to show the Search button on the iOS keyboard, you use the action attribute in the form. From Anton's answer here ... Show 'Search' button in iPhone/iPad Safari keyboard
<form action=".">
<input type="search" />
</form>
But this does not work when you are using an AngularJS form with ng-submit like this
<form action="." ng-submit="doSearch(searchtext)">
<input type="search" ng-model="searchtext" />
</form>
The action attribute breaks the Angular form submit.
Any suggestions on how to put a dummy action attribute and still get ng-submit to handle the form processing? Or any other solution that would show the iOS keyboard's search key with an AngularJS HTML5 form.
Just encountered the same problem, key here is that angular prevents default form submission only if no action specified, so if you want to specify one you need to preventDefault manually, which should be pretty easy.
This should work (worked for me):
<form action="." ng-submit="$event.preventDefault();doSearch(searchtext)">
<input type="search" ng-model="searchtext" />
</form>
Also note, that you will need to blur() your input field after you made a Search request in order to auto-hide keyboard.
Update:
With the latter this directive will help you:
.directive('prettySubmit', function () {
return function (scope, element, attr) {
var textFields = $(element).children('input');
$(element).submit(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
textFields.blur();
});
};
})
I have placed preventDefault() in directive, so your form will look like this:
<form action="." ng-submit="doSearch(searchtext)" pretty-submit>
<input type="search" ng-model="searchtext" />
</form>
I encountered the same problem.
Finally I decided to use
<form action="{{'#/search/' + searchText }}">
Instead, and it works.
I am working on code written by someone else.
Its a Reset Password form. The current client side validation works on most browsers including IE 10 and IE 11. On IE 9 the Confirm Password does not match error keeps getting displayed even though I am sure I am typing the exact same thing in both fields.
The code:
<div class="form-group">
<div class="input-group input-phone">
<span class="input-group-addon"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-lock"></span></span>
<input type="password" id="Password" name="Password" class="form-control input-lg default-focus" data-val="true" data-val-required="Password is required." placeholder="Password" autocomplete="off">
</div>
<div class="field-validation-valid" data-valmsg-for="Password" data-valmsg-replace="true"></div>
</div>
<div class="form-group form-group-login-bottom">
<div class="input-group input-pin">
<span class="input-group-addon"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-lock"></span></span>
<input type="password" id="ConfirmPassword" name="ConfirmPassword" class="form-control input-lg" data-val="true" data-val-equalto="Confirm Password does not match." data-val-equalto-other="*.Password" placeholder="Confirm Password" autocomplete="off">
</div>
<div class="field-validation-valid" data-valmsg-for="ConfirmPassword" data-valmsg-replace="true"></div>
</div>
I searched a lot yesterday but none of the solution seems to work.
I tried: updating the jquery.validate.js and jquery.validate.unobtrusive.js files.
I tried debugging, in the jquery.validate.js file, this snippet,
// http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/Validation/Methods/equalTo
equalTo: function( value, element, param ) {
// bind to the blur event of the target in order to revalidate whenever the target field is updated
// TODO find a way to bind the event just once, avoiding the unbind-rebind overhead
var target = $(param);
if ( this.settings.onfocusout ) {
target.unbind(".validate-equalTo").bind("blur.validate-equalTo", function() {
$(element).valid();
});
}
return value === target.val();
},
target is the input field with id Password. On IE 10 and IE 11, alerting target.val()
returns the correct value of type in. On IE 9 it returns empty. Cannot figure out why it does not work on IE 9 specifically. Any suggestions would be helpful.
What versions of jQuery, jQuery validate and ASP MVC are you using?
I just created a fiddle using your html and including the latest versions of those libraries (jquery 2.1.0, validate 1.13 and validate-unobtrusive from MVC 5). I verified the validation works on IE9 (Mine is version 9.0.8112.16421)
However I have found this issue which means you may find this error in IE9 with incorrect html on your page. You could make sure you don´t have any open tags (like a <p> without its corresponding </p>). For example if in the fiddle you just add a <p> right before the <form> the validation stops working in IE9 but not in Firefox. (See this updated fiddle that doesn´t work on IE9)
In case this doesn´t help, I would check the library versions and any other library that you might be loading in your page that could interfere (If you could replicate your issue in a fiddle that would be great!). If nothing helps, you can try removing the validate-unobtrusive library from the fiddle (it is added on external references) and uncomment the JS code to manually use the validation plugin. At least that would let you find out if the issue is related with jquery.validate or with Microsoft´s jquery.validate-unobtrusive:
//This is commented in the fiddle. Only uncomment to try jquery.validate without jquery.validate-unobtrusive
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#testForm").validate({
debug: false,
rules: {
Password: {
required: true
},
ConfirmPassword: {
required: true,
equalTo: "#Password"
}
},
submitHandler: function (form) {
// just for the fiddle demo
alert('valid form submitted');
return false;
}
});
});
I currently have a link in the below form:
Change
In order to fit the look of the site in which I'm adding this link, I want to change it to a button input, as so:
<input type="button" value="Change" onclick="changeNumbers('Numbers', '#Url.Action("ChangeNumbers")')" />
However, I'm running into a snag with this second form: the single quotes around #Url.Action("ChangeNumbers") are being flagged as Unterminated string constant. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing incorrectly and how to fix it?
EDIT
It didn't occur to me to just try the page - it looks like the second form works. So now my question is - why is Visual Studio flagging this as incorrect?
You're not doing anything "incorrectly" per se, it's just that Razor isn't perfect, and things like quotes within quotes tend to cause it to freak.
One quick fix would be to store the URL in a variable and then use the variable:
#{ var url = Url.Action("ChangeNumbers"); }
<input type="button" value="Change" onclick="changeNumbers('Numbers', '#url')" />
However, an even better fix is to not use the onclick attribute at all. Put this where it belongs: in JS.
<script>
$('#myButton').on('click', function () {
changeNumbers('Numbers', '#Url.Action("ChangeNumbers")');
});
</script>
Used jQuery above, since it's included in MVC by default
I've found that to make Visual Studio happy in this scenario, the easiest thing to do is simply change the <input /> element to a <button></button> element and the error will resolve itself:
<button type="button" onclick="changeNumbers('Numbers', '#Url.Action("ChangeNumbers")')">Change</button>
Otherwise, to continue using an <input /> the markup will need to be changed to the following:
<input type="button" value="Change" onclick="#("changeNumbers('Numbers', '" + Url.Action("ChangeNumbers") + "')")" />
