Trigger the right event when a form opens on a page

in Using jQuery • 5 years ago

My problem is that I don't know what is the right event when a form opens on a page.

Specifically, my webpage is as follows:

http://pcgraph.triplebit.com/product/on1-jersey-unif/

When the visitor clicks the upper button (with the envelop icon) it launches a form.

I need to set a specific value to one of the fields with jQuery at that moment.

Is it possible and how?

Thx

The envelope button triggers a mailto: link, which is handled by the browser without any JS interaction. You can specify additional fields on that link, such as the suggested subject and body of the email. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mailto.

In this case the button doen't send an email but pops up a form. Besides there is no way to target the field that I want to set in the Wikipedia doc.

If I'm wrong, can you be more specific and demonstrate with code?

jQuery(".product-info a:has('.fa-envelope-o')") targets the little envelope ( צור קשר לקבלת פרטים) )

jQuery(".product-info a:has('.fa-envelope-o')").click(function(){
jQuery('[name="your-name"]').val("Jake") // puts my name in the input!
})

The large envelope at the bottom of the page is a mailto:

Dear Sir,

Your code works perfect but do you know why my similar code, with a slight change regarding the selector doesn't work:

$('i.acfi.fa.fa-envelope-o').click(function() {

$( ".product_cf7 input" ).val(product_name);

})

Thx

You don't have $ as jQuery.

And jQuery( ".product_cf7 input" ) does not match any element on your page.
