Get all content of POST HTML form in Gin - go

I've an HTML form:
<body>
<div>
<form method="POST" action="/add"name="submitForm">
<label>Message</label><input type="text" name="message" value="" />
<input type="checkbox" name="complete" value=""> Complete<br>
<input type="submit" value="submit" />
</form>
</div>
</body>
Now I want to access both values (message and complete) at the same time when a POST occurs.
How can I do this in Go (gin gonic)?
I can do it in two times by using c.PostForm but is there a way to collect them both?:
func AddTodoHandler(c *gin.Context) {
fmt.Println(c.PostForm("message"))
fmt.Println(c.PostForm("complete"))
I tried fmt.Println(c.PostForm("submitForm")) but that did not work.

I don't know if you've already solved this, but the way I managed to capture the 2 values simultaneously was by removing the value from the checkbox and using the Request.PostForm instead of the PostForm.
I tried using the form's name or id, but it seems that it's still not possible to get the data from them.
<body>
<div>
<form method="POST" action="/add" name="submitForm"> << not work
<label>Message</label><input type="text" name="message" value="" />
<input type="checkbox" name="complete"> Complete<br> << remove value attribute
<input type="submit" value="submit" />
</form>
</div>
</body>
func AddTodoHandler(c *gin.Context) {
fmt.Println(c.Request.PostForm)

Honeypot protection with Ajax

Recently i got attacked by nasty auto-form fill bots which filled my shout form with all sorts of spam. My shout form consist from a html file with 2 textboxes,an ajax script(for refreshing without reloading) and my php file for handling all the inserting data into my DB.
I am thinking implementing a hidden textbox for a minimum protection against these bots but with no luck since i cant pass the honeypot data to my php file. My code:
HTML Form
<form class="form" method="post" action="postdata.php">
<fieldset id="inputs">
<input id="name" name="name" type="text" placeholder="name" maxlength="20">
<textarea id="message" name="message" type="text" placeholder="message" maxlength="255"></textarea>
</fieldset>
<fieldset id="actions">
<input type="submit" id="submit" value="Submit">
</fieldset>
</form>
Ajax script
$(function(){refresh_shoutbox();$("#submit").click(function(){var a=$("#name").val();var b=$("#message").val();var c="name="+a+"&message="+b;$.ajax({type:"POST",url:"postdata.php",data:c,success:function(d){$("#shout").html(d);$("#message").val("");$("#name").val("")}});return false})});
function refresh_shoutbox(){var a="refresh=1";$.ajax({type:"POST",headers:{"cache-control":"no-cache"},url:"postdata.php",data:a,success:function(b){$("#shout").html(b)}})};
postdata.php file
<?php
if($_POST['name'] or $_POST['message']) {
$name= $_POST['name'];
$message= $_POST['message'];
///do other stuff/////
?>
I will insert a hidden field in my html form
<input id="email" name="emails" style="display:none"></br>
but i cant manage to pass the extra value to my existing ajax script.Tried some code but with no luck.
Any help so i can get my shoutbox up and running again?

ruby forms in div elements

I'm having an issue where the form generated with ruby isn't included inside my #content div, is this because the form is generated after the html is read by the browser (sorry if I sound like a moron on this)
-- edit update - view source --
The code below generates with the email box and submit button outside of the content box
<div id="content">
<!-- text here -->
<form accept-charset="UTF-8" action="/password_resets" method="post">
<div style="margin:0;padding:0;display:inline">
<input name="utf8" type="hidden" value="✓" />
<input name="authenticity_token" type="hidden" value="afmtpSAc93w1uMcnouhY9XmbVTM7fE1VNFvZKnp0kMs=" />
</div>
<div class="field">
<input id="email" name="email" placeholder="email#website.com" type="text" />
</div>
<div class="actions">
<input name="commit" type="submit" value="Reset Password" />
</form> </div>
</div>
I'm not sure I got the question right, but in the html above the last </form> </div> should be </div> </form>
figured it out after visiting this link
Is it correct to use DIV inside FORM?
once I removed the div's for field and action it cleared everything up

Jquery Validation plug-in custom error placement

Using the jQuery Validation plug-in for the following form:
<form id="information" method="post" action="#">
<fieldset>
<legend>Please enter your contact details</legend>
<span id="invalid-name"></span>
<div id="id">
<label for="name">Name: (*)</label>
<input type="text" id="name" class="details" name="name" maxlength="50" />
</div>
<span id="invalid-email"></span>
<div id="id">
<label for="email">Email: (*)</label>
<input type="text" id="email" class="details" name="email" maxlength="50" />
</div>
</fieldset>
<fieldset>
<legend>Write your question here (*)</legend>
<span id="invalid-text"></span>
<textarea id="text" name="text" rows="8" cols="8"></textarea>
<div id="submission">
<input type="submit" id="submit" value="Send" name="send"/>
</div>
<p class="required">(*) Required</p>
</fieldset>
</form>
How can I place the errors inside the span tags? (#invalid-name, #invalid-email, #invalid-text)
I read the documentation about error placement but I did not get how it works.
Is it possible to handle each single error and place it in the specified element?
Thank you
You can also manually add error labels in places you need them. In my particular case I had a more complex form with checkbox lists etc. where an insert or insert after would break the layout. Rather than doing this you can take advantage of the fact that the validation script will evaluate if an existing label tag exists for the specified field and use it.
Consider:
<div id="id">
<label for="name">Name: (*)</label>
<input type="text" id="name" class="details" name="name" maxlength="50" />
</div>
Now add the following line:
<label for="name" class="error" generated="true"></label>
which is standard error label:
<div id="id">
<label for="name">Name: (*)</label>
<input type="text" id="name" class="details" name="name" maxlength="50" />
</div>
<div id="id-error">
<label for="name" class="error" generated="true"></label>
<div>
jQuery will use this label rather than generating a new one. Sorry I could not find any official documentation on this but found other posts that came across this behaviour.
This is a basic structure, you can use whatever selector you would like in the method. You have the error element and the element that was invalid.
jQuery.validator.setDefaults({
errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
error.appendTo(element.prev());
}
});
Or to target the ID, you could do
jQuery.validator.setDefaults({
errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
error.appendTo('#invalid-' + element.attr('id'));
}
});
Not tested, but should work.
I found that using .insertAfter rather than .appendTo works:
jQuery.validator.setDefaults({
errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
error.insertAfter('#invalid-' + element.attr('id'));
}
});
I'm using the metadata extension with the validator.. (note, I'm setting it to use the data-meta attribute on the markup...)
<input ... data=meta='{
errorLabel: "#someotherid"
,validate: {
name:true
}
}' >
then in code...
jQuery.validator.setDefaults({
errorPlacement: function(error, element) {
error.appendTo($(
$(element).metadata().errorLabel
));
}
});
I've been using the metadata for a lot of similar functionality, which works rather nicely... note, I used the single ticks (apostrophes) around the meta data, this way you can use a JSON serializer server-side to inject into that portion of the tag (which should use double-quotes around strings)... a literal apos may be an issue though, (replace "'" with "\x27" in the string).

Multiple password forms + password completion

On a website I'm working we have an onsite login and a private login, the problem I'm having is that Firefox doesn't seem to be able to differentiate between these login forms.
Does anybody know how I can make clear that these are different logins?
I already tried giving the form fields different names and ids, ex: onsite_login and login but without success.
edit: my form-tags are not being mixed up, they aren't even on the same page
The two forms on the different pages
<form method="post" action="/en/login/1">
<fieldset>
<p>
<input type="hidden" value="login" name="form"/>
<input type="hidden" value="en" name="redirect"/>
<label for="onsite_username">Username<abbr title="Required ">*</abbr></label>
<input type="text" class="input-text" maxlength="255" value="" name="onsite_username" id="onsite_username"/>
<label for="onsite_password">Password<abbr title="Required ">*</abbr></label>
<input type="password" class="input-password" maxlength="255" value="" name="onsite_password" id="onsite_password"/>
<input type="submit" value="Log in" name="submit" class="input-submit"/>
</p>
</fieldset>
</form>
and
<form method="post" action="">
<fieldset>
<input type="hidden" value="login" name="form"/>
<div>
<label for="username">Username</label>
<input type="text" class="input-text" value="" name="username" id="username"/>
</div><div>
<label for="password">Password</label>
<input type="password" class="input-password" value="" name="password" id="password"/>
</div>
<input type="submit" value="Aanmelden" class="input-submit"/>
</fieldset>
</form>
Apparently this is not possible due to the way Firefox stores its passwords.
A password-manager entry is stored with the following data
The username (encrypted and secured with Firefox Master Password).
The password (encrypted and secured with Firefox Master Password).
The hostname of the webpage containing the login form.
The hostname of the webpage to which the form data has been submitted.
Thus Firefox does not distinguish between the two loginfields on my page.
I've not yet heard about a multiple form problem in Firefox.
But it could be that Firefox mixed up your 2 login forms if there is another tag around that is not closed properly.
I've had that problem myself with <p> tags and a not properly closed <div> around it.
I'm not sure.. but try to give them a different ID like <form method="POST" action="#" id="login1">
