I have a link called "Save" on a page of mine, which, when clicked on (the url is typically like this)
, calls a javascript function called "savesubmit ", which in turn calls a script using AJAX (the script URL is http://www.mysite.com/section/myspace/save.php).
This is the JavaScript function savesubmit:
The form is in a div tag with id 'form31', and the result will be sent to a div tag with id 'results31'.
The problem is, this thing is working in IE but not in FF. When I click on the Save link, it says "'elements.leng th' is null or not an object". And the alert I put for testing says [object] instead of giving the form name.
Here is the <td> which has the forms etc.
Can someone kindly help? Thank you for your time!
Code:
javascript:savesubmit('form31','results31','1','movies','178')
This is the JavaScript function savesubmit:
Code:
function savesubmit(formname, loc, noofvenues, which, mapid)
{
var f = document.forms[formname];
alert(f);//this alert was to test if the form name was coming in properly
var params = "";
for (i=0;i < (f.elements.length);i++) {
params = params + f.elements[i].name +'='+ encodeURI(f.elements[i].value) + '&';
}
shows = loc;
xmlHttp=GetXmlHttpObject();
if (xmlHttp==null)
{
alert ("Browser does not support HTTP Request");
return;
}
var url = 'http://www.mysite.com/section/myspace/save.php/'+which+'/'+f.eventid.value+'/1/'+mapid+'/'+noofvenues
var eventid = f.eventid.value;
url = url + "?" + params;
var update_loc = eventid + 'save';
var update_form = eventid;
xmlHttp.onreadystatechange=stateChangedALL;
xmlHttp.open("GET",url,true);
xmlHttp.send(null);
updatesave(update_form, update_loc, noofvenues, which, mapid);
}
