Using attachFile and Submit - file-upload

I have the following HTML:
<form action="upload" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" >
Select a file to upload:
<input type="file" name="file"/>
<input type="hidden" name="USER_NAME" id="USER_NAME" value="user_name"/>
<input type="submit" value="Submit"/>
</form>
I'm having a couple of problems.
Firstly, in the entry field (named "file") I want to set the name of the file to upload. I can do that just with WebElement.type(), but I get a warning about using attachFile. I'm happy to use that, but when I do so I get the error:
com.thoughtworks.selenium.SeleniumException: Element must be user-editable in order to clear it.
My second problem is that if I set the content of the entry field by type(), the submit button doesn't work. I can get the WebElement by css, but neither click() or submit() works. Nothing happens at all when I do either.
Thanks in advance for any help, and apologies for dumbness.

How to stay on the same page after a form submission integrated to a Google form

In my website i have a contact form, and i've integrated it with a Google form. I've added the google form's execute URL as the action URL so once its submitted the form is being populated with the form data. the way i have done it
But when its being submitted, its redirecting to a google form's response page. What i need is once its submitted, to stay on the same page and give an alert. Im not sure how to do this in vue js. Any suggestion will be appreciated.
the content on the redirected page
{"result":"success","data":"{\"name\":[\"sdvsdv\"],\"company\":[\"dsvdv\"]}"}
Form in vue js view
<form method="POST" id="appointment-form" action="https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbzRHvjfmIZdwKnOm26PeFv64OyyyGAfcr68MxvYw/exec">
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" placeholder="Your name" name="name" class="form-control" id="name" required>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" placeholder="Company name" name="company" class="form-control" id="company" required>
</div>
<buttontype="submit" class="btn btn-default btn-block form-submit-btn">Submit</button>
</form>
After read your code properly, i found many errors.
How are you saving input values?
To save, you have to use ```v-model directive````
I guess you save the input values in somewhere. To avoid your problem, you can add a method and call it on submit, and inside the method save your input values.

Validations not working in ODOO website

I have created a template and a controller for it in ODOO v8. Following is the template:
<template id="myTemplate">
<t t-call="myTemplateHeader"/>
<div class="myClass">
<form action="/myControllerAction" name="myTemplateForm">
<input type="text" id="name" name="name"/>
<input type="text" id="lname" name="lname"/>
<input type="text" id="email" name="email"/>
<input type="submit" value="Submit"/>
</form>
</div>
</template>
And I have written a controller for the action /myControllerAction.
#http.route(['/myControllerAction'], type='http', auth="public", website=True)
def index(self, **post):
data = {}
# some action here
# to submit and fetch values
request.website.render("my_module.mySecondTemplate", data)
I have added validations on the fields in the form so that one cannot submit the form without entering the values in all the text fields given. The validations in JS works, it shows an alert message when the text fields are blank(one alert for each text field). But, after clicking the OK for the alert message of email field, it submits the form even when the field is empty. I have checked the issue and found that the problem exists only if I provide
<input type="submit" value="Submit"/>
and it will be solved if I am using
<input type="button" value="Submit"/>
But I have to make some calculations in the controller and need to retrieve some data from the database to show on the next page. For this, type="button" cannot be used as it just submit the form and redirect to next page without making a call to the controller function. type="submit" will make the call to the controller, but validations are not working as described earlier. Also submitting the form using onclick event of the button in javascript won't call the controller. I want validations on the form and then call the controller(on submit). Is there any way I could implement this in ODOO v8?
For making fields mandatory in ODOO templates, the attribute required="required" can be used on input fields.
<input type="text" id="name" name="name" required="required"/>

i want to change url parameters

hi my url is something like this abc.domain.com/add/firstname/phone/email which is api link. i want to change parameters first name,phone,email when user enters in form. please let me know if anyone can help. thanks in advance.
add/?Client+Name=&Phone+number=&Email+ID=&Partner+ID=AUOVML i dont want url in this format. format must be as i mentioned in first line. i have done something like this:
<form method="get" action="http://abc.domain.com/add/">
<div class="d-nt-signup">
<div class="d-nt-field-wrap">
<input type="text" label="Name*" id="first_name" name="Client Name" active-color='#FB165B' class="d-nt-login-filed">
</div>
<div class="d-nt-field-wrap">
<input type="text" label="Mobile*" id="mobile" name="Phone number" active-color='#FB165B' class="d-nt-login-filed">
</div>
<div class="d-nt-field-wrap">
<input type="email" label="Email*" id="email ID" name="Email ID" active-color='#FB165B' class="d-nt-login-filed">
</div>
<div class="d-nt-field-wrap">
<input type="hidden" name="Partner ID" value="AUOVML">
</div>
When you do a get request with a form you will get the names and values of the form inputs added to the URL like that.
You can get around that by using a post request instead. Change method="get" to be method="post".
Developers will often handle the result of the form being sent with PHP. Change the action to point to a PHP file, and then in the PHP file you can access the form data through the $_post array like so $_POST["form_input_name"].
See http://php.net/manual/en/tutorial.forms.php for an example of echoing back data typed into a form.

Not able to get Xpath post applying starts with

My HTML Structure:
<form id="assignment-submission-540296" action="/assignments/submit-assignment" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST">
<input id="assignment_id" type="hidden" value="540296" name="assignment_id">
<input id="assignment_user_id" type="hidden" value="131639273" name="assignment_user_id">
<input type="hidden" value="/assignments/view/540296/131639273" name="returnUrl">
<div style="margin-right:230px;margin-top:-2px">
<input class="by-button fileuploadImage" type="button" value="Submit" data_id="" style="margin-left:155px">
My XPATH Generated with FIREPATH Is this:
.//*[#id='assignment-submission-540296']/input[4]
in the above x path 540296 is dynamic value hence I did something like this. Modified XPATH:
.//*[starts-with(#id,'assignment-submission']/input[4]
but after this not able to identify the element.
You are just missing a closing parenthesis:
.//*[starts-with(#id,'assignment-submission')]//input[4]
HERE ^
Also, you needed to use // after finding the form to search for desired input anywhere inside the form.
Besides, you can make the xpath a bit more specific by specifying a form tag and relying on input type:
.//form[starts-with(#id,'assignment-submission')]//input[#type="button" and #value="Submit"]

text fade on input field, where is this being configured

i have this website im building, my client is using a template and the template has contact forms, now i cant seem to understand how to get the text fade on click for input fields to work on any additional fields i make on top of what was there on the template.
http://daniloportal.com/NPC2/contact.html
on that page take a look at the form, the values with *'s disappear but the clone EMAIL input i made doesnt cause i took the * off the value.
Ive been going crazy trying to figure out where this is being configured on the page, If any inspect elementors can take a look and let me know i would greatly appreciate it!
this is the code snip
<form id="ajax-contact-form" action="">
<input type="text" name="name" value="Name *" title="Name *" />
<input type="text" name="email" value="Email *" title="Email *" />
<input type="text" name="email" value="Email " title="Email *" />
<textarea name="message" id="message" title="Message *">Message *</textarea>
<div class="clear"></div>
<input type="reset" class="btn btn_clear" value="Clear form" />
<input type="submit" class="btn btn_blue btn_send" value="Send message!" />
<div class="clear"></div>
</form>
Search your code to find what makes the input's value disappear. E.g., look for behavior that clears the value of form fields (either element.value = '' if using plain javascript, or element.val('') if using jquery).
Then you can see what is the condition to clearing it. In your case, seems that the condition is that the input's value is equal to it's "title" attribute (you can edit both using "Inspect Element" in Chrome).
