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.

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 problem. It's not "sticking"

Used Spry validation a few times, no big deal. Insert the widget, tweak, upload, done.
I'm trying to validate one single drop down menu. I go to Insert, Spry Validation Select, I get the little blue "tab" thing attached to the drop down, and we're all good.
I close the doc, open it back up and it's no longer there. You can click on the drop down menu, and no blue tab comes up for the spry.
This doc is on a template, in an un-editable area.
It seems to write the code to the page, you can find it if you look, but it's just not working.
I know this is a long shot, but has anyone had this issue with Spry?
I've been screwing around with this one doc for days trying to figure it out. I even went as far as pulling a backup copy that had never been "spry'd" before and starting over.
Same result.
A page that should have the spry working is:
http://wolfe-florist-waco.com/online-flowers/ED-101.html
Thanks.

Suggest you start by cleaning up the code and validating the page
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwolfe-florist-waco.com%2Fonline-flowers%2FE D-101.html&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0
The link you posted is a page within a page (multiple Doctypes etc).
Are you using Server Side Includes to pull code into the page? If so, the Include cannot be a self-contained page. It must be a code fragment only so that when it's pulled into the page, the resultant code forms a complete, valid web page.

Confusing documentation for Validation Select widget

On the website
http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Spry/1.4/index.html
there's a page titled "Validation Select widget overview and
structure." The article is confusing because the example is a
pull-down menu of states, e.g., Alabama, Alaska, etc. But then
"states" also means valid, invalid, required value, etc. This
double meaning makes the documentation difficult to understand. The
documentation should use an example of, for example, cities or
countries.
Also this widget has name different names. In Dreamweaver
it's called "Spry Select." But on
http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Spry/1.4/index.html
it's called "Validation Select." Both names are misleading, it
should be called "Pull-Down Menu Validation."

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 Select ultimate beginner

Hello to all,
I need help with the spry validation select thingy. Basically, I am not a programmer, so code stuff won't help me much. I need a bit of a walkthrough:
The problem:
1) I need 2 validation select boxes with about 10 choices each.
2) I need an activation button - that is, when the correct choices are selected, the user presses a button to take them to the right webpage.
3) I need the choices within each select box to (obviously) direct the user to a different page once the activation button is pressed.
My solution so far:
1) I can insert the 2 validation select boxes into dreamweaver, with what i think is the correct naming, etc. I can also set the 10 choices for each. I do not know what the "value" tab means in the "list values" button I use to name and set the number of choices.
2) I can insert the button as well (just insert, nothing else)
3) I am not able to link the 10 choices with anything - I simply don't know how to do that, and cannot find info about it. When I live preview my work so far I get 2 nice drop/validation boxes with 10 choices each, and a button. I now need to, given a specific choice and after the button is pressed, to take the user to a different webpage with information about the double selection they chose.
I hope the above is clear enough - in the end, I will have 100 seperate webpages that need to be linked to the choices (10 choices in one box times 10 choices in the other box), I just need a way to link those choices to the webpages. Any basic and non-code based help would be very appreciated,
Cheers,
P

I need help with the spry validation select thingy. Basically, I am not a programmer, so code stuff won't help me much. I need a bit of a walkthrough:
You have got no hope!
1) I need 2 validation select boxes with about 10 choices each.
You have stated that you have already done this. The value of the select element can be found here http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_select.asp
2) I need an activation button - that is, when the correct choices are selected, the user presses a button to take them to the right webpage.
You have stated that you have already done this
Seeing that you have already done the above, these are no longer a problem. This leaves us with
3) I need the choices within each select box to (obviously) direct the user to a different page once the activation button is pressed.
For this we would need to see your markup in situ. Please supply a link to your site.

Spry Validation Selection - Required with Default Initial Selection

Hello,
I am using a Spry Validation Selection drop down. I want the user to choose 1, 2, 3, or 4. I would also like the drop down to initially say "Choose One" I would like to force the user to have to choose 1, 2, 3 or 4. Is this possible simply through Dreamweaver's edits?
Thanks,
Melanie

Spry Validation Select Problems cs5

Hi,
Part of my website uses a drop down to select from a list of products {product_name} - which is part of my dataset ds_Products.
Problem: The output is diplayed without a selection drop down and the web page dispalys "{product_name}" instead of the drop down in place of it when i look at the live view or even in the actual browser.
Code pieces:
<script type="text/javascript">
<form name="form1" action="" method="post">
        Search products:
<span spry:region="ds_Products" id="product_select">
<select spry:repeatchildren="ds_Products" name="ProductSelect" onchange=”ds_Products.setCurrentRowNumber(this.selectedIndex);">
    <option spry:if="{ds_RowNumber} == {ds_CurrentRowNumber}" value="{product_name}" selected="selected">{product_name}</option>
    <option spry:if="{ds_RowNumber} != {ds_CurrentRowNumber}" value="{product_name}">{product_name}</option>
</select>
</span>
</form>

How can I get my selection list/ drop down list to be represented from my dataset?
Thanks.

Hey folks,
Surprisingly, I figured out that the code is working fine when I clicked "Live View".
So the problem actually was my local host wasn't set up correctly.
For those having the same problem on windows 7 & cs5, make sure that:
iis service is running on ur machine
the testing server is set up on dreamweaver - in my case it was a local connection anf not ftp. Remember to specify your site folder when you do this.
you copy the site folder to (in my case) xampp/htdocs or whatever localhost service you are using.

Spry Validation Textarea Widget "error: missing ) after argument list"

Hi all,
I'm trying to apply validation on textarea in one of my forms but it keeps giving me the same error msg in Firefox "missing ) after argument list". Funny thing is that the line witch initiate the textarea object is one on one from the Spry Framework Documentation!
Here is fragment of the form code:
<label id="cContentCont">
     <span class="cFormTag">Comment: <span id="charCounter"></span></span>
     <textarea name="comContent" id="comContent"></textarea>
     <span class="textfieldRequiredMsg"></span>
</label>
Here is the code that initialize this object:
var sprytextarea1    = new Spry.Widget.ValidationTextarea("cContentCont" {maxChars:100, counterType:"chars_remaining", counterId:"charCounter"} ) ;
I have also 2 other text inputs befor that element and they are working just fine befor i initiate that particular textarea!
I can't see an error or missing argument in this line, please if somebody encounter the same problem and have solution I be glade to share his experience!
Thanks !

Your code is missing a comma after "chars_remaining" as in
var sprytextarea1 = new Spry.Widget.ValidationTextarea("cContentCont", {maxChars:100, counterType:"chars_remaining", counterId:"charCounter"});
Hope this helps,
Ben

Spry validation textfield widget

I've followed the lynda.com tutorial
online
here & added the widget to my page in DWCS4.
I can preview the various states in the properties bar but it
is not working when I save the page & preview in my browser (or
live view).
My page is a php file - does this make any difference?

This is causing a JavaScript error and not allowing the Spry
JavaScript to run:
if (window.location.search.substring(1) != "")
window.frames['PropertiesFrame'].location.href =
http://powering.expertagent.co.uk/CustomSearch.aspx?ShowSearchFirst=false&aid={76C20EAB-05 89-4AEB-A7BE-CE3182F07285}&"
+
window.location.search.substring(1)
else
window.frames['PropertiesFrame'].location.href =
http://powering.expertagent.co.uk/default.aspx?aid={76C20EAB-0589-4AEB-A7BE-CE3182F07285}& dep=1"
Remove it and the Spry will run.

Spry Sliding Panel Widget problem

I have tried to use the Spry Widget Sliding Panel code from
the Adobe tutorial and I keep getting an error message. The message
is that "Spry" is undefined in line 26. Please help! I have been
trying to figure this out for 2 days. Is there any code I have to
change in the .css file or in the .js file that comes with the Spry
Widget Sliding Panel download.
I am just getting familiar with the on-line community and I
have posted this to two other fora -- so please forgive the
repetition. I am also new to Spry and am eager to learn how to use
it. I hope it is not too advanced for my level.
Attached, please find the code.

Validation Select works on FF not on IE

Hi guys!
Made a few tweaks on the site today, and I just realized that
my Validation Select Widget was not working on IE 7 (!). I'm
completely puzzled. It works fine on Firefox, as always... could
someone shed some light?
Here's the page:
http://www.cosmicollective.org/archive.html
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance.
Tomas

Hi Cristian,
Thank you very much for your reply. I fixed the errors you
pointed out, and I also realized I didn't quite understand what the
problem was:
I completely removed the Validation Select script, because,
as you said, there are no forms on the site. The problem is that
the changes on the selection form do not reflect the
spry:detailregion that is supposed to display the selected item on
the list. The problem should be within the drop-down list code,
which has the "spry:setrow" function.
Again, this problem is for IE only (and Safari, which does
not load any data, but that's a different forum post). Firefox and
Opera change the post accordingly.
Note that on FF the page loads with both master and detail
region set on the same row, but on IE the drop-down list displays
the first item, and the detail region displays the last - they seem
to be completely unrelated.
Does this clarify the problem? Again, I appreciate a lot your
help, and thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Tomas

Spry validation problem for long forms

I used the Spry Validation Widgets for my form validation. It
works great, BUT the problem is that if you have a very long form
and the user doesn’t fill in one of the top required fields,
it doesn’t scroll the browser back up to the required field,
or present a message next to the submit button telling the person
that not all required fields have been filled in. Nothing appears
to happen at all, which would be confusing to users. I added my own
message underneath the Submit button which reads "If this form does
not submit, check for required entries at the top of this page.*",
but is there a way to add an extra popup message that could appear
next to the Submit button instead? (I know that we can't mix the
Validate Form behavior with the Spry Validation widgets.)

Came across the same issue as well. To solve this I added in
three lines of code into the 'SpryValidationTextField.js' file that
is created via DW. Inside of that include look for the following
code:
if (!Spry.Widget.Form.validate) {
Spry.Widget.Form.validate = function(vform) {
var isValid = true;
var isElementValid = true;
var q = Spry.Widget.Form.onSubmitWidgetQueue;
var qlen = q.length;
for (var i = 0; i < qlen; i++) {
if (!q
.isDisabled() && q.form == vform) {
isElementValid = q
.validate();
isValid = isElementValid && isValid;
return isValid;
Right before you return the "isValid" parameter you want to
check and see if the value is false. If it is, have the page
refreshed to a specific html anchor. For example:
if (isValid == false) {
window.location.hash = "formtop";
return isValid;
Where "formtop" is would be the name of your html anchor tag
on the page. So right before my html form starts I have:
<a name="formtop"></a>
Hope that helps ... enjoy!

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!

Problems with the Spry Content Slider Widget in DW6

Hello there,
I have been wrestling with a problem I'm having with the Spry Content Slider Widget that I hope someone has an answer for.
I have 2 widgets on a page, but the problem I'm having occurs whether there is 1 or 2 on the page.
No matter how many slides I have in the widget, it only shows the first 3. The 2 widgets per page occurs on every html page (9 in total.)
In there a setting in the inline or linked .js code limiting the number of slides to 3?
In addition to these widgets, I also use a DWUser_EasyRotator Slider on the pages, and both the easyRotator and Spry Widgets launch a fancyBox jQuery Gallery. Tho it's a possibility, I don't think the mixing of sliders/js is the problem, as I was having the problem with the Spry Widget showing only the first 3 upon the first insert of the Widget.
Any suggestions on settings I should be aware of, as regards the Widget, would be greatly appreciated… (;

On line 66 of your code, you have an extra </head> tag that doesn't belong. Remove that and validate your code again.
