I'm trying to setup an RSVP form for my wedding whereby you can clone a couple of fields to RSVP for more than one guest at a time (http://adrianandemma.com/). These cloned fields include a couple of radio buttons for 'attending Yes/No'.
When I clone the radio buttons I'm trying to increment their name attribute from name="coming[0]" to name="coming[1]", name="coming[2]", name="coming[3]", etc.
I need to try and do this because each cloned radio button needs to have a unique name attribute, otherwise you can't select more than one yes/no answer at a time. This means I can't just use an empty array name="coming[]".
I think I'm partly there, as when I clone the fields at present my JS is amending each cloned field to name="coming[0][1]", name="coming[0][2]", name="coming[0][3]".
I just need to try and get it to remove the [0], but can't work out how to do this using jQuery.
Here's my HTML form:
<form action="?" method="post">
<?php if(@$errors) :?>
<p class="errors"><?php echo $errors; ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
<input type="hidden" name="submit" value="1" />
<div class="form-row">
<div class="field-l">
<p>Name</p>
</div>
<div class="field-r">
<p>Attending?</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-row guest">
<div class="field-l">
<input type="text" name="name[0]" id="name" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars(@$_REQUEST['name']); ?>" tabindex="1" />
</div>
<div class="field-r">
<input type="radio" name="coming[0]" id="coming-yes" class="coming-yes" value="Yes"><label for="coming-yes">Yes</label><input type="radio" name="coming[0]" id="coming-no" class="coming-no" value="No"><label for="coming-no">No</label>
</div>
</div>
<a class="addguest" href="#">Add further guest</a>
<div class="form-row">
<button type="submit" id="rsvp-submit" tabindex="2">Submit RSVP</button>
</div>
</form>
and here's my jQuery:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.addguest').on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
//
// get the current number of ele and increment it
//
var i = $('.guest').length + 1;
$('.guest').first().clone().find("input").attr('id', function(idx, attrVal) {
return attrVal + i; // change the id
}).attr('name', function(idx, attrVal) {
return attrVal+'['+i+']'; // change the name
}).val('').removeAttr('checked').end().find('label').attr('for', function(idx, attrVal) {
return attrVal + i; // change the for
}).end().insertBefore(this);
});
});
Here's my form process code that doesn't seem to be pulling through the radio button values:
<?php
$name = $_POST['name'];
$coming = $_POST['coming'];
$errors = "";
if(!@$_POST['name']) { $errors .= "Please enter your name.<br/>\n"; }
if(!@$_POST['coming']) { $errors .= "Please enter yes or no for attending.<br/>\n"; }
if(@$_POST['emailaddress'] != '') { $spam = '1'; }
if (!$errors && @$spam != '1')
{
$to = "example@xyz.com";
$subject = "Wedding RSVP";
$headers = "From: noreply@adrianandemma.com";
$body = "The following RSVP has been sent via the website.\n\n";
for($i=0; $i < count($_POST['name']); $i++) {
$body .= "
Name ".($i+1)." : " . $_POST['name'][$i] . "\n
Coming ".($i+1)." : " . $_POST['coming'][$i] ."\n\n";
}
$body .= "\n\nDate Received: " . date("j F Y, g:i a") . "\n";
mail($to,$subject,$body,$headers);
}
?>
Based on siddiq's comment above, this should do it:
$('.addguest').on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var i = $('.guest').length + 1;
$('.guest').first().clone().find("input").attr('id', function(idx, attrVal) {
return attrVal + i;
}).attr('name', function(idx, attrVal) {
return attrVal.replace('[0]','')+'['+i+']'; // fix is here
}).val('').removeAttr('checked').end().find('label').attr('for', function(idx, attrVal) {
return attrVal + i;
}).end().insertBefore(this);
});
