JavaScript note form processing

If you need to collect information from users of a website, you need to use a form.
Forms can contain most common graphical interface elements, including input fields, radio buttons, check boxes, pop-up menus, and input lists. In addition, HTML forms can contain password fields, which hide the user's input from prying eyes.
After filling in the form, click the Submit button on the menu to send the form information to the Web server. On the server, the CGI program (Common Gateway Interface, which is a script running on the Web server) will interpret and operate the data. The data is then often stored in a database for later use. Before using the data on the server side, you need to ensure that the data entered by the user is in an accurate (correct) format.
JavaScript is a great way to check data. This technique is called form validation. While verification can be done with CGI (and should be done as a precaution since some users turn off JavaScript in their browsers), verification with JavaScript on the client machine is much faster and more efficient for the user.
    Some summary about the form:
  Get the form
[javascript]
var form=document.forms["form1"];
var form=document.fors[0];

form object event
onsubmit is triggered before the form is submitted
onreset is triggered before the form is reset
Reference form elements
[javascript]
var element=tForm.elements[idex];
var element=tForm.elements[elementName];

Traverse all form fields in a form
[javascript]
for(var i=0;i //
}

Common properties of form fields
1) Create only Read (unavailable) form field
element.disabled=true;
element.disabled=false;
2) Get the value of the form field
value
Common method of form field
1) The form field gets focus: focus()
2 ) The form field loses focus: blur()

Common events for form fields
onFocus: This event is generated when the focus is obtained

Text fields, check boxes, radio buttons, drop-down list boxes, form validation, etc.单 Dynamically changing the menu 地 often needs to provide the user with the opportunity to enter the user through the pop -up menu, and hope to change one or more pop -up menu content according to the choice made by the user in another pop -up menu. Select the number of days in the selected month and fill in the second pop-up menu:
[html]


< title>Dynamic Menus

Month
;/option>
; option>
                                                                                                                   < ;option value="10">November
                                                        < ;option>Day

Select a value in the popup menu, and then you can create the content of the second popup menu
[javascript]
/**
* Dynamically change the menu
*/
window.onload=initForm;

function initForm(){
document. getElementById("months").selectedIndex=0;
document.getElementById("months").onchange=populateDay;
}

function populateDay(){
var monthDays=new Array(31,28,31,30,31 ,30,31,31,30,31,30,31);
var monthStr=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;
//Use this (the month selected by the user in the first menu) from the menu Get the value in monthStr and store it in monthStr
if(monthStr!=""){
var theMonth=parseInt(monthStr);
document.getElementById("days").options.length=0;
for(var i=0;i                              document.getElementById("days").options[i]=new Option(i+1);
