Re: PHP quickform with Javascript

Hi Mark, Thank you kindly for your email! I had a somehow stupid question! I have never used jquery before , so I have the following question: - I have tried adding $form->addElement( 'text', 'test', 'My Label', array( 'id' => 'test' ) ); to my php quickform but do i need to place the $("#test").click( function() { alert( 'i was clicked'); }); in a different file or I could execute jquery within the php quickform? if you have a simple example, that would help allot! thank you so much! regards, On Fri, Mar 12, 2010 at 7:57 PM, Mark Steudel <msteudel@gmail.com> wrote: > Short answer is yes. > > There are a couple of ways you could do this: > > 1.
