Repeat a Fields Value in Submit Page

[mark048]

I imagine the code for this must be pretty simple, but I am just looking to repeat the value of what is entered into one field on a submission page into another hidden field.

 

This is what I have so far

 

<script>
function onSubmitClick() {
var box1 = document.getElementById('InsertRecordsubgoalcount');
var box2 = document.getElementById('InsertRecordgoalcount');
box2.value = box1.value;
}
</script>

<button onclick='onSubmitClick(); return false'>Click Me</button>

 

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

I tested your code and it works fine. You're on the right track. Kudos!

Thank you for the reply. That's odd it isn't working in mine (the place it needs to work haha). Does it matter the fields are numerical fields? 

 

Ill keep playing with it. 

 

Thanks

I see the problem is in the click me button. I don't want that button, I just want the value to be copied when the campion submit button is clicked. Anyone have the code?

 

thanks

Hi Mark,

You can try this revised code:

<script>
function onSubmitClick()
{
    var box1 = document.getElementById('InsertRecordsubgoalcount');
    var box2 = document.getElementById('InsertRecordgoalcount');
    box2.value = box1.value;
}
document.getElementById('caspioform').onsubmit = onSubmitClick;
</script>

Hope this helps.

I  gave that a whirl with no luck..

 

I was thinking one other option may be to have the second field (goalcount) as a 'confirmation' field and just put a code that the two fields must be equal. So basically make my own 'confirmation' using two fields instead of the caspio confirmation.

 

Thanks

You can fire the function on a different event like when the second value goalcount is entered and focus goes to another field

<script>
function onSubmitClick()
{
    var box1 = document.getElementById('InsertRecordsubgoalcount');
    var box2 = document.getElementById('InsertRecordgoalcount');
    box2.value = box1.value;
}
document.getElementById('InsertRecordgoalcount').onblur = onSubmitClick;
</script>
