Can NOT submit by enter key

[Lukas]

I have this JS code in footer:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

function checkSubmit(){
var idvalue = cbParamVirtual4.value;
var valuesize = idvalue.length;
if (valuesize == 6) {
cbParamVirtual2.value = idvalue;
return true;
} else if (valuesize = 10) {
cbParamVirtual3.value = idvalue;
return true;
    }
return false;
}

document.forms[0].onsubmit=checkSubmit;
</SCRIPT>

 

But for some reason, when there is this code, I can not submit the datapage just by pressing the ENTER key. 

If I remove the JS code, everything goes just fine.

 

where could the problem be? 

 

thanx for any help.

Hi Lukas,

I believe that you have encountered an issue because you are referencing the Virtual field with incorrect syntax, hence your function returning "False".  

You may try to use following Javascript:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

function checkSubmit(){

var idvalue = document.getElementById(“cbParamVirtual4”).value;
var valuesize = idvalue.length;
if (valuesize == 6) {
document.getElementById(“cbParamVirtual4”).value = idvalue;
return true;
} else if (valuesize == 10) {
document.getElementById(“cbParamVirtual4”).value = idvalue;
return true;
    }
return false;
}
document.forms[0].onsubmit=checkSubmit;
</SCRIPT>

Hope this helps.

Hello Vitali

I tried your JS code, and it is still not working.

The code works, actually it did also with my old version. If there is 6 lenght size, the JS does its work and insert the value in cbParamVirtual3. If there is 10 lenght size, also JS inserts the value in cbParamVirtual2.

but I still have to press "submit" button, and enter key does not work.

I also tried it on diferent types of browser, no success.

Hi Lukas,

This part of the logic expression of your code has assign operator "=" i.o. equality check operator "==", hence this block will not execute even if valuesize variable equal 10.

else if (valuesize = 10) {
cbParamVirtual3.value = idvalue;
return true;
    }

You may try to use this code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function checkSubmit(){
var idvalue = document.getElementById("cbParamVirtual4").value;
var valuesize = idvalue.length;
if (valuesize == 6) {
document.getElementById("cbParamVirtual2").value = idvalue;
return true;
} else if (valuesize == 10) {
document.getElementById("cbParamVirtual3").value = idvalue;
return true;
    }
return false;
}
document.forms[0].onsubmit=checkSubmit;
</SCRIPT>

 

Hope this helps.

Vitali, I checked the code of yours with mine, and the operator I am using is ==

my code is the same as yours, code works, but only with hitting the submit button.

if I press enter key, nothing happens.

there might be something other going on. I have 3 datapages deployed on my webpage.

If there are 3 datapages, I can not submit by enter key, only by pressing the submit button. but if I deploy only the single datapage which contains the JS code, everything works ok also with enter key.

is there something going on just because I have more than 1 datapage deployed?

Vitali, 

I found out that the javascript on my webpage is probably not a problem.

I have some other datapages deployed where there is no Java Script code.

if there is one datapage deployed, submiting by enter key is not a problem.

but if there is more then 1 datapage deployed, I just cant submit by enter key.
