Hello trying to make step by step body measurement form using jquery stepjs https://github.com/rstaib/jquery-steps/ my code submit the data on finish but need help on validation of the field that it should max 3 digit number that is the measurement before hitting the next button
<form id="form" name="form" method="post" action="mail/men-measure.php" class="measureinput-inner">
<section class="tabs-continners">
<input type="text" class="measureinput" placeholder="Enter Measurement In cm" id="bandhgala-length" name="bandhgala-length">
</section>
<section class="tabs-continners">
<input type="text" class="measureinput" placeholder="Enter Measurement in cm" id="bundi-length" name="bundi-length">
</section>
<section class="tabs-continners">
<input type="text" class="measureinput" placeholder="Enter Measurement In cm" id="fly" name="fly" >
</section>
</div>
</div>
My Script
<script src="js/jquery.steps.js"></script>
<script>
$(function ()
{
$("#wizard").steps({
headerTag: "h2",
bodyTag: "section",
transitionEffect: "slideLeft",
stepsOrientation: "vertical",
onFinished: function (event, currentIndex) {
$("#form")[0].submit();
}
});
});
</script>
Use regex to validate the number of digits. You will need additional onStepChanging
and onFinishing
parameters for steps()
.
The regex /^[0-9]{1,3}$/
will allow only upto 3 digits e.g. 1, 12, 123 will be allowed, but not 1234 and so on. You can write your own logic to warn user to enter max 3 digits.(e.g. red colored text)
Note: This regex will not allow blank value. To allow blank value modify regex as /^[0-9]{0,3}$/
EDIT:
You have 4 steps and every step has one input, so we need to validate the <input>
which is visible on current step. So I have added current step's index(currentIndex
in script) as suffix to measureinput
class. You can notice measureinput0, measureinput1, measureinput2, measureinput3
classes for <input>
in every <section>
.
Now we can validate only current visible <input>
in JavaScript.
$(function() {
$("#wizard").steps({
headerTag: "h2",
bodyTag: "section",
transitionEffect: "slideLeft",
stepsOrientation: "vertical",
enableKeyNavigation: true,
onStepChanging: function(event, currentIndex, newIndex) {
// always clear error message on click of 'next' and 'previous'
clearErrorMessage('measureinput' + currentIndex);
// in case of 'next', newIndex is greater than currentIndex
// so below condition will validate only in case of 'next', not 'previous'
if (currentIndex < newIndex) {
return ValidateField('measureinput' + currentIndex);
}
else {
return true;
}
},
onFinishing: function(event, currentIndex) {
return ValidateField('measureinput' + currentIndex);
},
onFinished: function(event, currentIndex) {
$("#form")[0].submit();
}
});
function ValidateField(classNameOfField) {
var allFields = $("." + classNameOfField);
for (i = 0; i < allFields.length; i++) {
if (/^[0-9]{1,3}$/.test(allFields[i].value)) {
return true;
} else {
//alert('Max 3 digits are allowed!'); // you can write your own logic to warn users
showErrorMessage(classNameOfField);
return false;
}
}
}
function showErrorMessage(classNameOfField)
{
$("."+classNameOfField).css("border-color", "red");
$("#errorMessage").css("display", "block");
}
function clearErrorMessage(classNameOfField)
{
$("."+classNameOfField).css("border-color", "black");
$("#errorMessage").css("display", "none");
}
});
