[jQuery] Re: How to select one of the many forms i have
i think it should be $(form[name=formb]) not forms... On Sat, Apr 25, 2009 at 1:39 AM, funkyasl amritas...@gmail.com wrote: Hi all, I'm a jquery newbie. I've been searching around the web a lot, but could not find an answer. My page has multiple forms (forma, formb, formc, etc). I want to select one particular form, say formb, without assigning an id to it, just by its name itself. How can i achieve this? I've tried: $(forms[name=formb]) but it doesnt work. My actual motive is to get hold of a radio group in this form, so that i can assign a click event to it. Something like: $(forms[name=formb] myselect).click(function(){ alert(radio selected: + this.value); }); I have no idea how to do this. I'm sure there must be some way to do this without assigning ids to it. Please help me. Thanks in advance :)
[jQuery] Re: can jquery capture these events all in one: user closes browser window/tab, or leaves my domain?

Except for quick installs of pre-written scripts over the years, I have very little experience of javascript (do we use the acronym js here?) I have written in visual basic (I was last semi-fluent with the 1998 version), and in WebDNA for 10 years (server- side web scripting language, like PHP, only much less known). I am writing to ask your opinions about accomplishing a solution to our need. I am not sure if we can do this with jQuery or js? Here is what I need your opinion about how to solve: We have a series of forms for the user to submit. We gather various data from the user at each form. We save his input to disk at every form submission but also eventually want to do some final processing on his input (do some math, over and above just saving his input). We only want to process his data once we have accumulated as much data from his as possible.. i.e. as much as he has patience to input for us. *One special thing is that we can only do this final processing one time.* Ideally we want to wait until he reaches formN to do this final processing of his data. But if we knew he was only going to stick around to see form3 and then leave.. then we would simply do the final processing after he submitted form2. The problem is that we never know when the user will get tired and leave. We would do the final processing earlier before losing him, but we can only process once and we don't want to miss the chance to gather yet more data from him before we process. If he leaves our site at form2 (or form3, or form4, for example) then we want to process whatever data we have gathered from him in total... meaning *as if he had submitted the form* he is now looking at after having checked the checkbox which says this is my last form!. We want to process as though he submitted one last form after alerting us that it was going to be his last submission - even though he is actually now leaving our site by closing the browser window, or closing the browser tab, or entering a new URL to go to.. or using a browser bookmark .. I assume there is a way to capture the event that fires when someone closes the browser window, closes the tab, (or also even if he just leaves our domain within the current window/tab?)..? Can I capture all these possible events (and others that you can think of that I neglect to mention here) into one umbrella event that fires and effectively submits the current form one last time - thus signaling to our server to go ahead with the final processing? If jQuery does not have this capability, then what about javascript? Please advise! Thanks for your time reading this. -Govinda Try unload event on body tag. you even try jquery way. $(window).unload(function { //whatever you want to do }); refer: http://docs.jquery.com/Events/unload#fn -raja koduru

$(#refSelectBox option[text^= + author + ]).attr(selected,selected); I guess the above is doable. let me know. - raja koduru On Thu, Apr 16, 2009 at 11:16 PM, Nando d.na...@gmail.com wrote: I'd like set a newly inserted option in a select box as the selected option. I'm trying to use jQuery to select the option using the option text, which begins with the author name as defined in the function. In the examples I've found, $(#refSelectBox option[text^=author]) would presumably select any option that begins with the literal author, but I need it evaluated instead. Given the following ... $(#addRefForm).submit(function() { var author = $(#author).val() var detail = $(#detail).val() var refYear = $(#refYear).val() var refType = $(#refType option:selected).val() var newReference = 1 $.post('index.cfm?view=saveReferenceFromPopup', { author:author, detail:detail, refYear:refYear, refType:refType, newReference:newReference }, function(data,status) { if(status == 'success'){ $(#refSelectBox).trigger('refreshOpts'); $(#refSelectBox option[text^=author]).attr (selected,selected); } } ); $('#dialog').dialog('close'); return false; }); ... how to select the newly inserted option in #refSelectBox using the text attribute and set it to the selected option?
