form.addEventListener('submit', e => {
e.preventDefault();
validateInputs();
if(isValid1 && isValid2 && isValid3){
this.submit();
window.location("action.html");
}
});
const setError = (element, message) => {
const inputControl = element.parentElement;
const errorDisplay = inputControl.querySelector('.error');
errorDisplay.innerText = message;
inputControl.classList.add('error');
inputControl.classList.remove('success')
}
const setSuccess = element => {
const inputControl = element.parentElement;
const errorDisplay = inputControl.querySelector('.error');
errorDisplay.innerText = '';
inputControl.classList.add('success');
inputControl.classList.remove('error');
};
const isValidEmail = email => {
const re = /^(([^<>()[\]\\.,;:\s@"]+(\.[^<>()[\]\\.,;:\s@"]+)*)|(".+"))@((\[[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\])|(([a-zA-Z\-0-9]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,}))$/;
return re.test(String(email).toLowerCase());
}
const validateInputs = () => {
const usernameValue = username.value.trim();
const emailValue = email.value.trim();
const myAreaValue = myArea.value;
if(usernameValue === '') {
isValid1=false;
setError(username, 'Name is required');
} else {
isValid1=true;
setSuccess(username);
}
if(emailValue === '') {
isValid2=false;
setError(email, 'Email is required');
} else if (!isValidEmail(emailValue)) {
isValid2=false;
setError(email, 'Please enter a valid email');
} else {
isValid2=true;
setSuccess(email);
}
if(myAreaValue === '') {
isValid3=false;
setError(myArea, 'Subject is required');
}else {
isValid3=true;
setSuccess(myArea);
}
};
Solution 1:[1]
Replace your eventListener to this:
form.addEventListener('submit', e => {
e.preventDefault();
validateInputs();
if(isValid1 && isValid2 && isValid3){
form.submit();
window.location("action.html");
}
});
The submit()
function has to be called by the form.
Check the documentation here: https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_form_submit.asp
Solution 2:[2]
You should also take care on window.location("action.html")
since window.location
is not a function, try instead window.location.href = "action.html";
. See this answer for more examples.
