I am creating a form using html and css.
But when I keep multiple buttons inside the form tag, they act as a submit button even though one out of it was used for going back. If I keep the another button outside the form tag then the button is placed at the new line but I want both the buttons in the same line.
<form action="login.php" method="POST">
<label class="label">
email:
<input type="email" name="email"
placeholder="example#gmail.com"
maxlength="40" required>
</label>
<label class="label">
password:
<input type="password" name="password"
required>
</label>
<input class="submit" type="submit">
</form>
<button>Back</button>
Help me in this.
by default buttons in a form is type submit, so all you need to do is change the type of the button to button (<button type="button">Back</button>).
like this:
<form action="login.php" method="POST">
<label class="label">
email:
<input type="email" name="email"
placeholder="example#gmail.com"
maxlength="40" required>
</label>
<label class="label">
password:
<input type="password" name="password"
required>
</label>
<input class="submit" type="submit">
<button type="button">Back</button>
</form>

$(".btn2").click(function() {
alert("Form submitted successfully!")
});

Well, yes. You have an event handler attached to a button.
When the button is clicked the event handler will fires, and alert will be displayed. Due to the way alert works, this will block everything until the user clicks the button on the alert dialog. Then the JS will have finished and the button's default behaviour will occur, which triggers the form submission.
Part of submission is to run the native validation process.
If you want to display the alert only after that finishes, then you will need to:
prevent the default behaviour of the button
run the validation functions manually
display the alert
trigger form submission manually
I've got a simple form which I'm wanting people to join to be put onto a waiting list for my product - but it's not submitting.
My application is being hosted on localhost:3000 and runs absolutely fine. The page renders and you can fill the inputs in.
But when you click 'submit' it does nothing. I've tried doing a few different 'types' of the button, but no luck.
Here's my code:
<section class="waiting-list-section">
<div class="waiting-container">
<div class="waiting-heading">
<h2>Join our waiting list</h2>
</div>
<div class="waiting-inputs">
<label for="fName">Enter your first name</label>
<input type="text" name="fName" value="">
<label for="lName">Enter your surname</label>
<input type="text" name="lName" value="">
<label for="email">Enter your email</label>
<input type="email" name="email" value="">
<button class="waiting-submit-button glow" type="submit" name="submit">Join</button>
</div>
</div>
</section>
Any tips? :-)
You need a form element wrapped around the input elements and the button.
<form>
<label for="fName">Enter your first name</label>
<input type="text" name="fName" value="">
<label for="lName">Enter your surname</label>
<input type="text" name="lName" value="">
<label for="email">Enter your email</label>
<input type="email" name="email" value="">
<button class="waiting-submit-button glow" type="submit" name="submit">Join</button>
</form>
Second approach would be to add an eventListener on the button and when it is clicked, get the values from the inputs and then do whatever you want to do with that data
I'm trying to make a "contact" button that doesn't allow you to submit until the required fields are filled, then redirects you to another html site. It currently doesn't allow you to submit correctly, but when the fields are filled it just resets the page instead of redirecting it. I think it's ignoring the "form action" part.
Also the reset button just doesn't work at all.
Does anyone see anything that might be the reason?
Thanks!
<form method="get">
<label>First Name: <input type="text" name="fmail" id="fmail" required="required" placeholder="your
first name"></label><br><br>
<label>Last Name: <input type="text" name="lmail" id="lmail" required="required" placeholder="your
last name"></label><br><br>
<label>E-mail: <input type="text" name="email" id="email" required="required" placeholder="your

<label for="comments">Comments:</label><br>
<textarea name="comments" id="comments" rows="4" cols="40" required="required"></textarea>

<form action="contact2.html" method="post">
<input type="submit" value="Contact" />
</form>
<form action="contactus.html">
<input type="reset">
</form>
</form>
Here's an image of what it looks like when you click contact without filling in the fields

Below is working code
<form method="post" action="/abc.html">
<label>First Name: <input type="text" name="fmail" id="fmail" required="required" placeholder="your
first name"></label><br><br>
<label>Last Name: <input type="text" name="lmail" id="lmail" required="required" placeholder="your
last name"></label><br><br>
<label>E-mail: <input type="text" name="email" id="email" required="required" placeholder="your
email"></label><br><br>
<label for="comments">Comments:</label><br>
<textarea name="comments" id="comments" rows="4" cols="40" required="required"></textarea>
<br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Contact"/>
<input type="reset">
</form>
Explanation:
All form-elements buttons, textarea, input should be wrapped in one form element.
you need to add form method as post and in action pass the URL of the page where you want to redirect after successful form submission.
Tabbing on Chrome follows the source order for this form nicely, whereas Firefox skips the password reset link, and goes straight to the next thing after the form, which is a button. Does Firefox prioritise buttons and form elements over links for tabindexing? It doesn't make any difference what tabindex number I put on the link

The 3 forms allow access as member, guest or then as newly registered.
However if someone clicks on the lower part of the form it automatically sends the cursor to the top part.
<form action="schlogin.php" method="post">
<fieldset>
<legend>Member's Login</legend>
<label for="username">Username:
<input type="text" name="username" id="username" value=""/>
</label>
</br>
<label for="password">Password:
<input type="password" name="password" id="password"/>
</label>
</br>
<input type="submit" name="login" class="loginButtons" value="login"/>
</label>
</br>
</fieldset>
</form>
<form action="schlogin.php" method="POST">
<fieldset>
<legend>Guest Player</legend>
<input type="submit" name="guest" class="loginButtons" value="Play as GUEST!" />
</label>
</br>
</fieldset>
</form>
<form action="schlogin.php" method="POST">
<fieldset>
<legend>FAST Register</legend>
<label for="username">Username:
<input type="text" name="username" id="username" value =""/>
</label>
</br>
<label for="password">Password:
<input type="password" name="password" id="password"/>
</label>
</br>
<label for="email">E-mail:
<input type="text" name="email" value=""/>
</label>
</br>
<input type="submit" name="register" class="loginButtons" value="I WANT TO PLAY TOO!"/>
</label>
</br>
I've forgotten my password:
<input type="submit" name="forgotten" class="loginButtons" value="Send me a new password!"/>
</label>

</fieldset>
</form>
Validate, validate, validate.
You have duplicate id attributes, so the labels in your second form are for the inputs in the first form.
In your second form change
<label for="username">Username:
<input type="text" name="username" id="username" value ="<?php if (isset($username)){echo $username; }?>"/></label></br>
to:
<label for="register_username">Username:
<input type="text" name="username" id="register_username" value ="<?php if (isset($username)){echo $username; }?>"/></label></br>
or whatever you like.
The point is that the id for every html element should always be unique. And the label element's for attribute should match it's associated input element's id attribute.
