Modifying form input attributes

[Roger Withnell]

Having built a form with several inputs and a submit button, how do I set the input name attribute?

I have the following javascript:

             var editor = $find("<%=RadEditor1.ClientID %>");
             var jDocument = editor.get_document();
             var jInputElements = jDocument.getElementsByTagName("input");
                 var jCtr = 0;
                 for (var i = 0; i < jInputElements.length; i++) {
                     if (jInputElements[i].type != 'submit') {
                         alert(jInputElements[i].type);
                         jInputElements[i].name = jInputElements[i].type + jCtr;
                     }
                     jCtr += 1;
                 }

I get get the type successfully, but the code does not set the name.

Your help would be much appreciated.

Thanking you in anticipation.

I think I have fixed this problem  by replacing:

jInputElements[i].name = jInputElements[i].type + jCtr;

with:

jInputElements[i].setAttribute(

'name', jInputElements[i].type + jCtr);

 

but I appear to have a related problem.

This javascript function is called with OnClientClick in the Save button when the RTE content is saved.

If the RTE content is in Design view when the Save button is clicked, the name values are set to the input tags correctly.

But if the RTE is in Html view when the Save button is clicked, the name values are not saved, even though the funtions runs and the content is saved without errors.

Furthermore, if I make other changes in the content area in Design view and then switch to Html view before saving, on click Save, the other changes are saved but the name values are not saved.

Please advise.

Hi Roger,

If the editor is set in HTML mode then make a check and set it in Design mode before submitting the content, e.g.

<script type="text/javascript">

    function OnClientSubmit(editor, args) {

        if (editor.get_mode() == 2) editor.set_mode(1);

        

        }

        alert(editor.get_html(true));

         }

</script>

<telerik:RadEditor id="RadEditor1" runat="server" OnClientSubmit="OnClientSubmit"></telerik:RadEditor>
