How to re-populate hidden CSV field on form submit using jQuery
<form> <input type="checkbox" id="01" name="01" /> <input type="checkbox" id="02" name="02" /> <input type="checkbox" id="03" name="03" /> <input type="hidden" value="03,01," /> </form>
I have the form abo开发者_Python百科ve; checkboxes 01 and 03 are ticked when the page has finished loading using the code below.
I now need to ensure that when the value of the checkboxes change, so too does the hidden CSV field (though this could perhaps be done when the form submits?). I think that using the variables created, it should be possible to re-populate the CSV field when the form submits. ie, using selected_ids to add the ids of the checked boxes onto the end of the CSV (if they aren't already present). Can this be done?
var csvValue = $('#csv-input').val(); var selected_ids = csvValue.split(','); for (var i = 0; i < selected_ids.length; i++) { var selected_id = selected_ids[i]; $('#' + selected_id).attr('checked', 'checked'); }
Some kind person gave me this code in my previous question:
$(':checkbox').bind('change', function(event){ if (this.checked == true){ // add to hidden field var tempIdStr = $('#cvs-input').val(); // if not in hidden value already if (tempIdStr.indexOf(this.id) > -1){ tempIdStr += "id,"; // or ", id" depending on how you are seperating the ids $('#cvs-input').val(tempIdStr); } } else { // remove from hidden field var tempIds = $('#cvs-input').val().split(','); var index = tempIds.indexOf(this.id); if (index > -1){ tempIds.splice(index, 1); $('#cvs-input').val(tempIds.join(','); } });
Which I think is close, but isn't quite there yet. Any further help on this would be great, thanks in advance.
You can build a CSV from element attributes concisely using .map
:
$(":checkbox").change(function() {
var csv = $(":checkbox:checked").map(function() {
return this.id;
}).get().join(",");
alert(csv);
$("input:hidden").val(csv);
});

As a side-note, element IDs should not begin with numbers.
