Auto-Populate text field from drop-down selection in dynamically added rows - php

I have a form in which users can dynamically add rows. In each row there is a drop-down menu of products that should auto-populate a text field with the price associated with the product chosen. This works perfectly for the first row, but does not work in the dynamically added rows. The product names are still being pulled from the mysql database into the drop-down, but it is not auto-populating the text field when chosen. Any help would be appreciated!
EDIT: I added the following section, which I think will make this whole thing work, I just need to figure out how to attach the i variable to the name or id or class, and then I can have the auto-populate code include price[i] and product[i]... and I THINK that will make it work for each dynamically added row. Any ideas now?
for(var i=0;i<$('.orderform tr').length;i++)
{
}
END EDIT
Auto-populate code:
<script>
$(function() {
$('select[name="product[]"]').change(function()
{
$('#price').val($('select[name="product[]"] option:selected').data('price'));
});
});
</script>
Adding a row code:
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
//This line clones the row inside the '.row' class and transforms it to plain html.
var clonedRow = $('.row').clone().html();
//This line wraps the clonedRow and wraps it <tr> tags since cloning ignores those tags
var appendRow = '<tr class = "row">' + clonedRow + '</tr>';
$('#btnAddMore').click(function(){
//this line get's the last row and appends the appendRow when it finds the correct row.
$('.orderForm tr:last').after(appendRow);
for(var i=0;i<$('.orderform tr').length;i++)
{
}
});
</script>
HTML/PHP:
<table class="orderForm" id="orderForm" width="100%">
<tr class="row">
<td>
<div class="pure-control-group">
<label>Product or Service</label><select name="product[]" id="product">
<option value=""></option>
<?php while($productRow = mysql_fetch_assoc($productResult)){?>
<option value="<?php echo $productRow['prouct_id'];?>" data-price="$<?php echo $productRow['price']; ?>"><?php echo $productRow['product']; ?></option>
<?php } ?>
</select>
</div>
<div class="pure-control-group">
<label>Price</label><input type="text" id="price" name="price[]">
</div>
<input type="button" class="deleteThisRow" id="deleteThisRow" value="Delete"/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<input type="button" id="btnAddMore" value="Add Product or Service" class="pure-button"/>

.clone() by default doesn't clone the event handlers. You can use .clone(true).appendTo(".orderForm");. The true parameter of the .clone() function copies the values and events over as well.

How to get text field values from Dynamically added jquery row?

I am having some problem to retrieve input values from dynamically added jquery table row ...
these are my code .. expecting a good solution .. thanks in advance :)
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
//This line clones the row inside the '.row' class and transforms it to plain html.
var clonedRow = $('.row').clone().html();
//This line wraps the clonedRow and wraps it <tr> tags since cloning ignores those tags
var appendRow = '<tr class = "row">' + clonedRow + '</tr>';
$('#btnAddMore').click(function(){
//this line get's the last row and appends the appendRow when it finds the correct row.
$('.employmentHistoryForm tr:last').after(appendRow);
});
//when you click on the button called "delete", the function inside will be triggered.
$('.deleteThisRow').live('click',function(){
var rowLength = $('.row').length;
//this line makes sure that we don't ever run out of rows.
if(rowLength > 1){
deleteRow(this);
}else{
$('.employmentHistoryForm tr:last').after(appendRow);
deleteRow(this);
}
});
function deleteRow(currentNode){
$(currentNode).parent().parent().remove();
}
});
</script>
</head>
// finaly i need pass the values from text feild ...
<body>
<form name="add_row" method="post" action="process.php">
<div class="employmentHistory">
<table class="employmentHistoryForm">
<tr class = "row">
<td> <label for="company">Name</label></br>
<input type="text" name="name" />
<g:textField name="company" class="company">
</g:textField></td>
<td><label for="position"> Position </label></br>
<input type="text" name="name" />
<g:textField name="position" ></g:textField></td>
<td></br><input type="button" class="deleteThisRow" value="Delete"/></td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<input type="button" id="btnAddMore" value="add more"/>
</body>
change the text field names to name1,name2,name3....namen
on the php side get the length of array like.
$numoftxtfield = count($_POST);
this gives the length of text field then using for loop or foreach loop get the all values of the text fields.
IF you do not want to change name of text field then you can use name as an array like..
name = "name[]"
after submit form you can retrive it by implode/explode.

using jQuery to copy column specific form values

I've used jQuery before to copy billing addresses to shipping addresses, but if I am dynamically generating form rows with various values from PHP, how do I set up the form so that upon a checkmark, a recommended item quantity will be automatically copied just to the quantity of the same item?
Here is the basic version of the billing/shipping copy script.
<script src="../Scripts/jquery-1.7.2.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("input#same").click(function()
{
if ($("input#same").is(':checked'))
{
// Checked, copy values
$("input#qty").val($("input#same").val());
}
else
{
// Clear on uncheck
$("input#quantity").val("");
}
});
});
</script>
And here is the PHP code dynamically gathering items with their suggested quantity.
while( $row = mysql_fetch_array($histresult) )
{
echo '<tr height = "50px">';
echo '<td>'.$product_id.'</td>';
echo '<td>'.$suggested_quantity.'<input id="same" name="same" type="checkbox" value ="'.$suggested_quantity.'"/> </td>';
echo '<td><input name="qty" type="text"size="4" maxlength="4"></td>';
///Other form elements go here, as well as an Add to Cart Button
}
For each item, a suggested wholesale quantity based on a user's favorite items is retrieved from the database. There is also a text field so that they can enter any amount they want before sending it to their cart. But if they check the checkbox, I want it to copy that value to the text field.
No only does this code not seem to do the trick, the difference between this and the billing/shipping copy is that now I'm dealing with a dynamic number of fields. How do I make each individual row achieve this task?
Using jQuery, you would essentially want to grab the suggested value from checkbox and put it in the other form element. Let's say this is your HTML:
<table>
<tr>
<td>
100 <input id="check-1" name="same" type="checkbox" value ="100"/>
<input id="qty-1" name="qty" type="text"size="4" maxlength="4">
</td>
<td>
100 <input id="check-2" name="same" type="checkbox" value ="100"/>
<input id="qty-2" name="qty" type="text"size="4" maxlength="4">
</td>
<td>
100 <input id="check-3" name="same" type="checkbox" value ="100"/>
<input id="qty-3" name="qty" type="text"size="4" maxlength="4">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
And then this would be your javascript/jQuery:
// Bind click event to ALL checkboxes
$("#same-*").live("click", function(e) {
// Only change it if box is checked
if( $(this).is(":checked") )
{
// Get suggested value
suggested_val = $(this).val();
// Place in next element (textbox)
$(this).next().val(suggested_val);
}
)};
I haven't tested this, but this is basically how it would work.
In your PHP, you would want to dynamically make those ID numbers so each row uses a unique ID. This is usually simple enough to match to your database row id.
<td>'.$suggested_quantity.'<input id="same-' . $row->id . '" name="same" type="checkbox" value ="'.$suggested_quantity.'"/> </td>
Change your code this way
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$("input.same").click(function()
{
if ($(this).is(':checked'))
{
// Checked, copy values
var temp = $(this).attr("title");
$("input#qty"+temp).val($("input#same"+temp).val());
}
else
{
// Clear on uncheck
$("input#qty"+temp).val("");
}
});
});
</script>
$i=0;
while( $row = mysql_fetch_array($histresult) )
{
echo '<tr height = "50px">';
echo '<td>'.$product_id.'</td>';
echo '<td>'.$suggested_quantity.'<input class="same" id="same'.$i.'" title="'.$i.'" name="same'.$i.'" type="checkbox" value ="'.$suggested_quantity.'"/> </td>';
echo '<td><input class="qty" name="qty'.$i.'" id="qty'.$i.'" type="text"size="4" maxlength="4"></td>';
///Other form elements go here, as well as an Add to Cart Button
$i++;
}
Hope this will helpful to you
Recycling IDs/names amongst several html elements is a bad idea I find.
I think it's best to make them unique.
But anyways, here's a suggestion that won't modify your html structure a lot.
Change the form tag as follows:
<form id="Order">
...
</form>
Change your PHP code as follows (added a label tag to isolate your suggested quantity better in the DOM, got rid of some unnecessary structure for your checkboxes):
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($histresult))
{
echo '<tr height = "50px">';
echo '<td>'.$product_id.'</td>';
echo '<td><label>'.$suggested_quantity.'<label><input type="checkbox" class="Same"/> </td>';
echo '<td><input name="qty" id="qty_'.$product_id.'" type="text"size="4" maxlength="4"></td>';
///Other form elements go here, as well as an Add to Cart Button
}
Finally, here is the jQuery code:
<script src="../Scripts/jquery-1.7.2.min.js"></script>
<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery("form#Order").click(function(Event){ //One event handler for the form, more efficient that way and you need less html structure to keep track of things
var Target = jQuery(Event.target); //This is the html element that got clicked on
if(Target.is("input:checkbox.Same")) //Make sure it's a checkbox that suggests quantity
{
var Text = jQuery(Target.closest('tr').children().get(2)).children(); //Get the parent TR tag, get it's third child (td tag containing the text field), get it's child (the text field)
var Suggested_quantity = Target.prev().html(); //Get the previous sibling which is the label containing the quantity and get it's html content which is the quantity
if(Target.is(":checked"))
{
Text.val(Suggested_quantity);
}
else
{
Text.val("");
}
});
});
</script>
EDIT: Removed some redundant html code. Added a class to isolate the right checkboxes. Added IDs for the text field (forgot).

Autocompute using ajax values provided in the database onchange

I have no idea how to basically use this. Im thinking of using javascipt arrays though.
Well I have a select option here with values from the database and the select is dynamic. The "add row" button will add another row of option select:
<td>Items </td>
<td style="text-align:left;">
<INPUT type="button" value="Add Row" onclick="addRow('dataTable')" />
<INPUT type="button" value="Delete Row" onclick="deleteRow('dataTable')" />
<TABLE id="dataTable" width="350px" >
<TR>
<TD><INPUT type="checkbox" name="chk[]"/></TD>
<TD>
<select name="ItemNo[]" id="select" value="ItemNo" onChange="this.disabled=true;">
<?php
$sql2="select * from jewelry_system.item where NumStored !='0' order by ItemName asc";
$result2 = mysql_query($sql2);
while($row2=mysql_fetch_array($result2)){
?>
<option value="<?php echo $row2['ItemNo']?>">
<?php echo $row2['ItemName'];?>
Php:<?php echo $row2['SalePrice'];?> </option>
<?php } ?>
</select>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</td>
</tr>
Here is what should be changed by ajax?
<tr>
<td>Total Payment (Php):</td>
<td> <div id="tpayment">0.00</div> </td>
</tr>
I wanted to compute total payment onChange of the values in the select option. and since the value can only be changed once should i use arrays? I'm quite clueless to ajax, tried learning at w3schools but failed.
pls thanks
You might not need AJAX unless you are needing to set something in your database prior to clicking a "submit" button of some sort. It looks like you should be able to store all the information in your selects when you build your page with PHP. You would need to show/hide your selects in the document using javascript.
Add ;updateTotal() to your select onChange event:
<select name="ItemNo[]" id="select1" value="ItemNo" onChange="this.disabled=true;updateTotal()">
Then add this function to your page or your javascript file:
<head>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function updateTotal() {
var dropdown = document.getElementById('select1');
var total = 0;
for (var i=0; i<dropdown.length; i++){
if (dropdown.options[i].selected) {
total += dropdown.options[i].value;
}
}
document.getElementById('tpayment').innerHTML = total;
}
</script>
</head>
Since you're going to be adding/removing rows, you will need to keep track of them like you mentioned with an array - probably a global one.
at the beginning of your javascript, declare a global array to store your datatables like this:
var selects = new Array();
You'll also want to update your add/remove calls:
<INPUT type="button" value="Add Row" onclick="addRow('dataTable','select1')" />
<INPUT type="button" value="Delete Row" onclick="deleteRow('dataTable','select1')" />
Then, when you call your addRow function, do this:
function addRow(rowname,selectname) {
/* ... original function stuff ... */
selects.push(selectname); /* this will add the selectname to the selects array */
}
And likewise, when you call your removeRow function, do this:
function removeRow(rowname,selectname) {
/* ... original function stuff ... */
selects.splice(selects.indexOf(selectname),1);
updateTotal(); /* since selected items might have been removed */
}
And lastly, we'll modify our original function like this:
function updateTotal() {
var total = 0;
for (var h=0; h<selects.length; h++) {
var dropdown = document.getElementById(selects[h]);
for (var i=0; i<dropdown.length; i++){
if (dropdown.options[i].selected) {
total += dropdown.options[i].value;
}
}
document.getElementById('tpayment').innerHTML = total;
}
}

Reading and printing user inputs in HTML in PHP

I have got a form (php in html or the other way around). Once user selects an option in a drop down list, it would get the input value and create a few text boxes. It seems like I have to use onchange(). How do I read the input and perform logics within the script inself? Instead of opening another .php script?
Currently this is what I have.
<?php
$tables = $_POST["tables"];
?>
<html>
<body>
<form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>">
Table Name: <div id="tables">
<select name="tables">
<option value="Applications">Application</option>
<option value="Device">Device</option>
</select>
</div>
</form>
<?
echo "".$tables."";
?>
You can't interact with PHP once the HTML is sent to the browser without either
Refreshing the page, or
Using AJAX (JavaScript).
If you know the options in the <select> beforehand (which it seems like you do), you should write some JavaScript to accomplish what you need. Here is a simple example using jQuery.
$('#tables_select').change(
function( eventObject ){
alert('You chose ' + $(this).val());
switch( $( this ).val())
{
case 'Applications':
$('#tables').append('<input type="text" name="application_name" value="Enter an application name" />"');
break;
case 'Device':
$('#tables').append('<input type="text" name="device_name" value="Enter a device name" />"');
break;
}
}
);
You will need to add additional logic to remove the inserted elements if the user changes their choice, and to insert the correct <input> elements when the page first loads, but it is a good starting point.
if you want to add any input type ... here is the demo demo with code
you use following method.
<form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF;?>" onChange="return createTxtbox()">
Table Name: <div id="tables">
<select name="tables">
<option value="Applications">Application</option>
<option value="Device">Device</option>
</select>
</div>
<span id="fooBar"> </span>
</form>
then write javascript,
<SCRIPT language="javascript">
function createTxtbox() {
var type="text";
//Create an input type dynamically.
var element = document.createElement("input");
//Assign different attributes to the element.
element.setAttribute("type", type);
element.setAttribute("value", type);
element.setAttribute("name", type);
var foo = document.getElementById("fooBar");
//Append the element in page (in span).
foo.appendChild(element);
}
</SCRIPT>

Put specific tds from a table row into edit using jQuery (then update w/ ajax)

I'm somewhat new to jQuery, so I could use some help here.
This is my issue:
I have a PHP script outputting a dynamic table. Each row has an "edit" button, plus some other fields. Only 3 of those need to be turned into an input box. The edit button should only put that specific row into "edit mode." I got as far as assigning each row a unique class by adding a number to the end of it.
I have been able to use jQuery to change all of the rows into edit mode, but I need it to be specific to a row.
An example row would have classes like name0, price0, and desc0. The next row would go on to classes name1, price1, and desc1 (for the fields that need changed). How can I reference these values and pass them to jQuery so it processes an event on just those elements?
There are two ways of doing this:
Dynamically creating the elements when the button is pressed; or
Hiding and showing elements that already exist.
Too much DOM manipulation can be really slow (particularly on certain browsers) so I favour (2). So for example:
<table class="editable">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>one</td>
<td>
<div class="view">two</div>
<div class="edit"><input type="text"></div>
</td>
<td>
<div class="view">three</div>
<div class="edit"><input type="text"></div>
</td>
<td>
<input type="button" class="edit" value="Edit">
<input type="button" class="send" value="Send" disabled>
<input type="button" class="cancel" value="Cancel" disabled>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
with:
table.editable div.edit { display: none; }
and
$(function() {
$(":button.edit").click(function() {
var row = $(this).closest("tr");
row.find("input.view").attr("disabled", true");
row.find("div.view").each(function() {
// seed input's value
$(this).next("div.edit").children("input").val($(this).text());
}).fadeOut(function() { // fade out view
row.find("div.edit").fadeIn(function() { // fade in edit
row.find("input.edit").removeAttr("disabled"); // enable edit controls
});
});
});
$(":button.cancel").click(function() {
var row = $(this).closest("tr");
row.find("input.edit").attr("disabled", true");
row.find("div.edit").fadeOut(function() {
row.find("div.view").fadeIn(function() {
row.find("input.view").removeAttr("disabled");
});
});
});
$(":button.save").click(function() {
// ...
});
});
