Adding additional string to an existing value in a HTML form's input box before submission












0















I have a form with an input box and I want to change the value before submit.



Example:



<form action="savefiends.php" method="post">
<input type="text" name="id" value="123456"><br>
<input type="submit">
</form>


How can I save the value as 123456@example.com without editing savefiends.php?



P.S. user can edit the value

          You can use the onsubmit attribute as shown in the snippet below.



          Note: I added extra checking to avoid appending "@example.com" if already present. Also I replaced the action attribute content by "#" to avoid form submission.






          function resetId(){
          var idInput = document.getElementById("id");
          var suffix="@example.com";
          // just to check if @example.com is already present
          var checkRegExp=new RegExp(suffix + "$");
          if (!idInput.value.match(checkRegExp)) idInput.value +="@example.com";
          alert("Value before submit:" + idInput.value);
          }

          <form action="#" method="post" onsubmit="resetId();return false">
          <input type="text" name="id" value="123456" id="id"><br>
          <input type="submit">
          </form>
