Spry Validation and ADDT DatePicker Widget

I have a number of text fields which I applied Spry
Validation to and set them to "required". These function correctly
until I add a ADDT DatePicker widget to the form. Now the
validation doesn't work.

Hi Gabriele,
technically speaking, ADDT and the Spry framework have about nothing in common, and you´re going to stumble across many compatibility-related issues when trying to use them together.
Does anyone have a solution??
any regular user who´d like to provide a solution to this, would have to be a pretty skilled programmer and would have to know the "technical details" of both ADDT and SPRY very well to be of help -- I don´t think that you´ll find many folks here who are capable to do that.
However, why not making the date field required in ADDT ?

Spry validation and CFFORM

I am using Spry validation on some of my forms and noticed
that if I am using CFFORM, the validation works, but the form is
still allowed to submit if the validation fails. If I change the
cfform tags to regular form tags the validation works and the
submit is NOT allowed. I really need to use CFFORM. Does anyone
know what is happening here? Why is the form submitting even though
the spry validation failed. ???

Can we use onsubmit for simple form.
Like below
<form action="index2.php" method="post" name="loginForm"
id="loginForm" style="clear: both;" onsubmit="return
Spry.Widget.Form.validate(this)">
<span id="username">
<input name="username" id="username" type="text"
class="inputbox" size="15" />
<span class="textfieldRequiredMsg"> Username
required</span>
</span>
<span id="password">
<input name="passwd" id="password" type="password"
class="inputbox" size="15" />
<span class="textfieldRequiredMsg">Password
required</span>
</span>
<a onClick="loginForm.submit();"> Login </a>
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>

Spry validation and validating email address?

I've seen that spry can be used to validate forms. I have not
seen an
example of an email address or more complicated validating
being done.
Where's a good source for how to do this?

Validating email addresses is not entirely possible. You can
only validate
the SYNTAX of an email address. This is best done server side
rather than
client side (or perhaps both ways) since validating only
client side can be
defeated by simply disabling javascript.
I like the Spry validation, though, because it is EXTREMELY
flexible and
easy to use. David Powers has some very good discussions
about Spry in his
Dreamweaver CS3 with CSS. Ajax, and PHP book, as does David
McFarland in his
Dreamweaver CS3: The Missing Manual.

Spry Validation and OK

I am using the source code form text validation demo as a
model
</tr>
<th scope="row">Zip</th>
<td><span id="Recipient_Zip">
<input type="text" name="Recipient_Zip" />
<img src="images/ok.gif" title="Valid" alt="Valid"
class="validMsg" border="0"/>
<span class="textfieldRequiredMsg">A value is
required.</span><span
class="textfieldInvalidFormatMsg">Invalid
format.</span></span></td>
</tr>
The OK image shows up all the time right when I load the form
rather then when I enter text.
You can see the whole form at
http://ufsflowers.pointinspace.com/aafes_order_b.php
I assume it is jsut something I am not seeing in the demo
source code but can someone point me in the right direction

Hi fmpdan,
In a nut shell, any time the widget performs a validation, it
will place a specific CSS class name on the top-level element of
the widget which indicates the name of the state. Designers are
supposed to use these states to define CSS contextual selectors to
show/hide messages and images of their choice. If you are using
code from the demos, then you need these CSS rules:
.validMsg{
display:none;
.textfieldValidState .validMsg, .textareaValidState
.validMsg, .selectValidState .validMsg, .checkboxValidState
.validMsg, .radioValidState .validMsg{
display:inline;
The rules above hide any elements with the class "validMsg"
on them. They become visible automatically when the element has a
parent with one of the valid state classes on them.
Be sure to checkout the documentation here:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/Docs.html
Which will tell you what the validation state CSS class names
are for each widget, so you can define your own CSS contextual
selectors.

Trouble shooting spry validation error message visible all the time

I am putting spry validations and error message to show up if requirements aren't met. The requirements don't disappear when I proof it on line
What am I doing wrong?

The answer is in the code. Show us the code and we will tell you what it is that has gone wrong. The code should include the markup (HTML) and the style rules (CSS).

Spry Validation Confirm Widget

Ugh. This is driving me nuts!
I've used the Spry Validation Confirm Widget successfully before, but for some reason I can't spot, I get this error message every time I try to load the page: Spry.ValidationConfirm ERR: The element ConfirmPasswordWidget doesn't exists!
The JS and CSS files are linked as follows in the head section.

<script src="SpryAssets/SpryValidationPassword.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<link href="SpryAssets/SpryValidationPassword.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

<script src="SpryAssets/SpryValidationConfirm.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<link href="SpryAssets/SpryValidationConfirm.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
The code in the body looks like this:
      <form id="Passwordform" name="Passwordform" method="post" action="">
        <table>
          <tr>
            <td><label for="password1">Password:</label></td>
            <td><span id="ValidatePasswordWidget">
              <input name="password1" type="password" id="password1" value="" size="20" maxlength="20"/>
              <span class="passwordRequiredMsg">A value is required.</span>
              <span class="passwordMinCharsMsg">The minimum number of characters not met.</span>
              <span class="passwordMaxCharsMsg">The maximum number of characters exceeded.</span>
              <span class="passwordInvalidStrengthMsg">The password strength condition not met.</span>
              <span class="passwordCustomMsg">User defined condition not met.</span>
              </span>
            </td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
            <td><label for="confirmpassword">Re-enter password </label></td>
            <td><span id="ConfirmPasswordWidget">
              <input type="password" id="confirmpassword" value="" size="20" maxlength="20" />
              <span class="confirmRequiredMsg">A value is required.</span>
              <span class="confirmInvalidMsg">The values do not match</span>
              </span>
            </td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
            <td> </td>
            <td><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
            </td>
          </tr>
        </table>
      </form>
The scripts are declared as follows:
<script type="text/javascript">
   var sprytextfield1      = new Spry.Widget.ValidationTextField("sprytextfield1", "none", {validateOn:["blur"], minChars:7, maxChars:7});
   var password1           = new Spry.Widget.ValidationPassword("ValidatePasswordWidget", {validateOn:["blur"], minAlphaChars:3, minNumbers:1, maxSpecialChars:2, minChars:3, maxChars:8});
   var ConfirmWidgetObject = new Spry.Widget.ValidationConfirm("ConfirmPasswordWidget", "password1", {validateOn: ['blur']}); </script>
The actual code is shown below (it doesn't allow me to attach it).
I know this is a lot to ask, but can anyone see the reason why I'm getting this error? Looks to me like ConfirmPasswordWidget exists!?
Thanks in advance.

Folks -
I have narrowed down the cause.
This error appears if the form to which the confirm validation is applied is inside an if condition that is not met, causing the form not to appear in the html source. It doesn't seem to affect the password validation similarly, just the confirm validation.
Doesn't this have to be bug? I'm not fluent in Javascript, so I'd sure appreciate someone telling my how to work around this.
This is the structure that causes the error to be generated, but only when condition is FALSE. If condition is TRUE, no error is generated.
<?php if (condition) { ?>
form with confirm validation
<?php }; ?>
Help anyone?

Spry Validation widgets not working on local WAMP server

I just started the process of creating a contact page. I got the client side done last night, woke up this morning and panicked. The spry validation widgets weren't working anymore. I re-did the entire page and realized it was only the contact.html page in the wamp directory that wasn't working. All the needed CSS and javascript assets are there and in the proper folders, so what's up?
(I'm still in the middle of the lynda.com series Dreamweaver CS5 with PHP and MySQL , so I'm not even certain where I'm heading just yet. I'm doing stuff as I think I understand it.)

OK, this is interesting. It works online, but not in local cache.
Here's the contact page on my website: http://www.ladyhawkslair.com/contact.html (So far, GNDN: goes nowhere; does nothing.)
And here's the WAMP version: http://www.ladyhawkslair.com/wamp/contact.html
worky-worky online.
No worky-worky when I preview in Firefox on my system.
Wait. Hold that thought.
I only refuses to work when I preview it in Firefox THROUGH Dreamweaver. Let me test again.
Verified.
The spry widgets don't work when I load them to Firefox WITH Dreamweaver. Interestingly, it works with IE.
Any ideas, Gramps?

Spry validation disappears - leaves widget code

I have added the spry validation to my form fields many
times. This particular form, I have had to add them twice already
and now I got an error that says the javascript for widgets that
are missing are still on the page. I see the widget javascript at
the bottom of my page in code view. I also see other changes I made
to the form fields at the same time that I added the spry
validation. So I am not imagining that I already did this.
What could have happened to make the validation disappear?
has this every happened to any of you?

Hi Daniel,
Im having the same problem, can you please tell me what you did? I understand you found the problem?
Thank you!

Filtering A Dataset Using the Spry Validation Select Widget

Given the code below, how can I filter the rows in the
ds_BestConvertingByCategory dataset (in the spry:repeat area) that
match the product category (prodcat_id) selected in the Spry
Validation select widget?
// product categories table: columns - prodcat_id,
prodcat_desc
var ds_ProductCategories = new
Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("category_qry2xml.php", "product/category",
{useCache:false});
// has prodcat_id column
var ds_BestConvertingByCategory = new
Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("product_qry2xml.php", "special/deals[type =
'Best Converting']", {useCache:false});
// Spry regions inside a TabbedPanel
<div class="TabbedPanelsContent">
<form id="formOffersByCategory" class="frmsprysel"
name="formOffersByCategory" method="post" action="">
<strong>Select a Product Category: </strong>
<span spry:region="dsProductCategories"
id="spryselectProductByCategory">
<select spry:repeatchildren="ds_ProductCategories"
name="offersByCategory" id="offersByCategory"
onChange="ds_ProductCategories.setCurrentRowNumber(this.selectedIndex);">
<option spry:if="{ds_RowNumber} == {ds_CurrentRowNumber}"
value="{prodcat_id}"
selected="selected">{prodcat_desc}</option>
<option spry:if="{ds_RowNumber} != {ds_CurrentRowNumber}"
value="{prodcat_id}">{prodcat_desc}</option>
</select>
</span>
</form>
<div id="offersbycategory"
spry:region="ds_BestConvertingByCategory"
class="SpryHiddenRegion">
<table id="offersByCategoryTbl" width="100%">
<tr class="colhdr">
<th width="50%">Offer</th>
<th width="50%">Code</th>
</tr>
<tr spry:repeat="ds_BestConvertingByCategory">
<td width="50%">{displaytext}</td>
<td width="50%">{offer_code}</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</div>
// Spry validation select widget
var spryselectProductByCategory = new
Spry.Widget.ValidationSelect("spryselectProductByCategory");

Hi flipone01,
To do this, make your region depend on both
ds_ProductCategories and ds_BestConvertingByCategory, then use the
spry:test attribute in conjunction with spry:repeat to weed out
items that don't have the same product id:
<div id="offersbycategory"
spry:region="ds_BestConvertingByCategory ds_ProductCategories"
<tr spry:repeat="ds_BestConvertingByCategory"
spry:test="{ds_BestConvertingByCategory::productcat_id} ==
{ds_ProductCategories::productcat_id}">
</div>
Remember that if you make a region depend on more than one
data set, you need to switch to using fully qualified data
references as the example above does (using the :: notation). If
you don't do that the data references default to the first data set
in the spry:region attribute.

Spry validation select widget problem

Dreamweaver CS3
Im using spry validation for my form but the two spry validation select widgets I am using are not working. When I test them I keep getting errors that nothing has been selected when something has in fact been selected. I've used spry validation before with no problems but this is the first time using the spry validation select widget.
My code:
<tr>
            <td valign="top">Page in Question*</td>
            <td valign="top"><span id="spryselect1">
              <label>
              <select name="select1" id="select1">
                <option selected="selected">Home</option>
                <option>About Us</option>
                            </select>
              </label>
              <span class="selectRequiredMsg">Please select an item.</span></span></td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
            <td valign="top">Which Internet Browser do you use?*</td>
            <td valign="top"><span id="spryselect2">
              <label>
              <select name="select2" id="select2">
                <option selected="selected"> </option>
                <option>Internet Explorer</option>
                <option>Firefox</option>
                <option>Safari</option>
                <option>Opera</option>
                <option>Google Chrome</option>
                <option>Other</option>
              </select>
              </label>
              <span class="selectRequiredMsg">Please select an item.</span>              </span></td>
          </tr>
Appreciate the help.

Help with Spry Menubar and slideshow widget in IE

I have a spry slideshow and menubar created in dreamweaver CS4. Both work in Firefox, Safari, Chrome, etc. but not IE.
Here's the link:
http://www.salmonrunvacations.com/test/
Check in firefox first, then IE.
For the menu, what I've done is created a CSS div to insert the menubar into. This way I can use a background image to frame the menubar. I then tweaked the CSS to shift the menu into the correct position so it lines up with the background image. This information is not transferring for some reason, as the menubar sits at the top left of that div, ignoring placement info.
Different versions of IE create different errors as well. Note that the "galleries" menu should have a flyout submenu. This doesn't work either, though I could remedy this by making "galleries" a page that links to the two submenues, but I'd kind of just like to get it fixed.
As for the slideshow, I used a widget fromt the adobe exchange using Adobe Air. It exported the code as its own html page and CSS, JS, etc, but I just inserted the HTML into a div in the index page. Again, it works great in FF, not in IE. I should also note that when I load the page in Dreamweaver CS4, I get a bunch of error menus saying this widget no longer exists. Dreamweaver does not accurately display the slideshow either.
Help on either of these issues would be most welcome.
Thanks and God bless,
Mike.

I'm sorry to say it still doesn't work. I hate to bother you and take your time, but at lease in IE 7 and 8, the slideshow still doesn't function.
For anyone interested, the code at the bottom was generated by Yahoo web hosting servers, and is for tracking site statistics. If you have a similar problem and want to get rid of that code as a possible solution, you have to go into the yahoo web hosting control panel, click "detailed statistics," then "options," and disable the site statistics tracking option.
I could just try to go with another java slideshow, but I really like this one.
Any other ideas on how to make it work? Also, the flyout menus under "galleries" display behind the slideshow (or at least the box that shows it not working). I suppose that may be fixed when the slideshow is fixed. We'll see. Please let me know if you have any other suggestions to make it work.
Thanks,
Mike.

Help with Spry form and Validation

We have a form with shipping and billing information. When
you fill out the billing and select same as billing radio button.
Then it fills out the shipping fields properly using focus to make
sure the spry validation recognizes the input. Everything on the
form appears to be valid in Firefox Windows and Mac and Safari but
the submit button does not work. Before we started we go the
shipping fields to populate with the billing data the form
submitted fine.
On IE 7 the 1st Zip code fields shows the error messages and
then only some of the hints show up in the spry validate fields
below. This is only on IE. When you populate the shipping section
in IE with the radio button in fills in everything but that
shipping zip again on IE only. You actually have to manually type
in the zip.
Is this IE bug related to the form not submitting in the
other browsers?
I don't understand why the form in all the other browsers
appears to have all fields validate but will not submit.
I bet between three of us we have 60 hours in the stupid form
and 2/3rds of it is not billable.
On the other hand we need to finish this today!!. We will all
be around at about 3 on Sunday. I am happy to pay someone to look
at this and help us get through this last step.
I wish there was some debug tool we could use to see what is
going on. I look at the debug.js file in 6 in the meantime. I can
be reached at 610-256-2843 and best email is [email protected]
Help!!
You can see all the by going to
http://vv.dss-demo.com/
then add something to your cart and go to checkout. you will
get the form.

Florin,
Thanks for the response. We were looking for a way to remove
the hints but did not see anything in the documentation.
But I am still having issues.
A. Not sure how you are not seeing the text "Zip is
required.Invalid format." in the grey area next to zip
code fields. It is there on IE 6 and 7 4 different users with
different computers see it.
B. As soon as I add you code you suggested and comment out
what we had it throws and error in IE and the debug says it is at
the 1st instance of your method sprytextfield20.removeHint();
Object does not support method.
C. A new problem we did not notice last night on all browsers
is that the form now does not respect the spry validations. It
submits no matter what. I am using this to submit the form.
<input name="submit"
id="submit" type="image"
src="images/complete_checkout.png"
onclick="document.forms['checkout_signup'].action='<@appfilepath>checkout_sign up.taf?_function=signup';document.forms['checkout_signup'].submit();"
/>. We for sure don't want. It seems to have occured once we
added the document.forms['checkout_signup'].submit(); in the 1st
place but that without that the form would not submit even when
everything appeared to be validated. So was adding
document.forms['checkout_signup'].submit(); =seems to have just
covered up another issue that is keeping the form from submitting.
I still would like to have someone really look at this form
with me and pay them if I have to. But it really does not seem that
the path we are talking really works.
I am going to roll this back to where it was till I can get
some help.
my guess at this point
Hints have to go because if we fill down with fields that
have hints then the hints become the values and are submitted. And
it also breaks the spry validation.
I would hope that the way we are rebuilding the zip and state
fields would be possible with spry. It sure looks like it works. My
hope is it is not causing the submit to not work.
Anyway I still need help from someone who would be willing to
take the time ort has the time to look over the page and al lthe
logic we are using and see if there is a better way to do this
even. This form is ending up costing me more time in non billed
hours then the job itself. Yipes!!!
As far as the HTML tags I will look at that again there are a
bunch of includes build some of this page but I do see the
beginning <html> seems to have been lost and I put it
back in.
D. I realize there is a fault with this method in the 1st
place since it replaces the hints with values even if the value is
the hint. Any suggestion on how to deal with that? are these hints
more trouble then they are worth when used as field names. Should
we just redisgn and use the field names in the 1st place?

Spry Validation in Spry Detail Region

I am trying to pre-populate an "update" data form using a
spry detail region. Basically a list of users is displayed on the
left, and the detail in a tab on the right. A second "edit" tab
displays a form that is populated with data from the spry dataset
using a detail region (just as the first detail tab). However, the
spry validations within the detail region do not work.
Download
this zip.
Thanks for looking.

Hi jmortimer,
What you need to do is trigger the constructors for your
validation widgets every time the region updates. To do this, you
need to either move the constructor calls into your region, *or*
call the constructors from an onPostUpdate observer on your region.
To see an example of this, look here:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/accordion/AccordionSample2.html
Just a note ... don't move the constructor for your tabbed
panel into the region. Leave it where it is today.

Spry validation textfield errors are appearing as regular text

I am trying to create a simple email contact form using two spry validation text fields and one spry validation textarea. I inserted a spry validation text field called "Name", and then a second below it called "email" and then a spry validation textarea called "message" I gave the email field an email validation to come on at Blur, and a textarea character count validation of no more than 400 characters. The problem is that the error messages are appearing as soon as the page is loaded, they are bypassing their initial states. They say: "A value is required.Invalid format." and "A value is required.Exceeded maximum number of characters."

I build a sample a while ago that shows you how to generate and destroy validations on the fly.
