I want to build an Ajax based autocomplete feature. Being a server side guy, I have little knowledge regarding layers and DHTML stuff. Having already implemented the AJAX part of the app, I am stuck with the layers thing.
The Google Suggest autocomplete is cool. Has anybody written code (free) or adapted Google Suggest kind of thing for their own use (like querying from database and showing results) ? Can you point me to some links or resources on the net.
Here is what I'm envisioning: The user selects a state, then in the 'Cities' box, he starts typing the name of his city. However, it autocompletes the name for him based on the state he chose. So if he chose California and started typing in "Los Angeles", it would autocomplete "Los Angeles" for him. Does that make sense? Is there a script out there that can do this?
I'm trying to get Jquery's Autocomplete to redirect a user based on their input - according to Jquery, it works like this: An autocomplete plugin can be used to search for a term and redirect to a page associated with a resulting item. The following is one way to achieve the redirect:
I'm not familiar with javascript/ajax. I'm more in the PHP/Mysql section.I'm using an ajax auto complete function found online to look up a value and return results.By default the INPUT FORM sends the variable "inputString" to the javascript that sends the variable "queryString" to the PHP query.What I would like to do is send two variables, instead of only "inputString".As you can see from the above PHP Query I am trying to select WHERE $queryString AND $os Querystring is being sent to the PHP query, but how do I send the second variable?
I am new to ajax. I have implemented the ajax autocomplete <ajax:autocomplete source="tag" target="make" baseUrl="autocompleteTag.htm" className="autocompleteTag" indicator="indicator1" minimumCharacters="1" parser="new ResponseXmlToHtmlListParser()" /> This my partial code.
The problem is that when I press any alphabet say suppose "a", I get all names starting with "a" say amy, admin, anuj etc one below other. Now when I select one of them say 'amy' the text box will display "amy,". Now when I press "a" again then it shows "amy,admin" & "amy,anuj" one below the other. As I want to enter multiple values comma seperated. But I want the ajax to show only "admin" and "anuj" and when I select any one of this, it should append the the value previously present in text box(i.e it should append the value "amy"). It is possible to show the list but when i select the value it does not append the previously present value. It replaces a value..
I need an autosuggest/autocomplete script for my field Name..I search code for that but when I tried it in my webpage it did not work. I used smarty template, php and mysql-adodb. Is there any syntax that you can suggest for a simple autosuggest the data coming from database?
I'm having trouble creating an alert to see the data inside the success function. The code is below and does not create a drop down table, though other things work. I'm trying to look at the returned data in the success function and at the values of the label and value items. The alerts I've tried do not trigger, or create syntax errors. What alert(s) should I use? [code]
Does anyone have a library or patch to call a handler if a user leaves an autocomplete field without choosing one of the autocomplete options - i.e. they've entered free text. I'm working with an app that populates multiple fields from a single auto-complete value, and our latest requirement is to clear out a bunch of fields if the user's entered something manually - rejecting autocomplete suggestions. My initial attempts at hooking into onkeyfoo and onblur haven't lead anywhere productive, and I'm hoping someone else has managed to overcome the gnarly event and timing dependencies involved with onkeyfoo and blur being used for standard autocomplete behaviour.
I am looking for an Ajax combobox (drop down, not a text box) auto complete script. I searched for it on Google and only result which seems similar to what I am looking for, is dhtmlxCombo. And that one is too complicated for me. What I basicly need is:
When the client types on the drop down, the records appear from MySQL database and when the client chooses one and submits the form, I want the ID (not the text written) to be posted.
I have found two jquery plugins and i am trying to combine an action but to no avail. what i want to do is after selecting an item from the auto complete box i would like for it then to do a change function and retrieve details. Here are my 2 pieces of code.
I have 2 textfields and I need to change a link href based on whatever is in those textfields.
The link has to be in this format:
The reason for this is I need to launch fancybox and as far as im aware this is the best way to call it.
So what im hoping is when I add type something in textfield1 this will be reflected in the url. And same for textfield2. I know this can be done easily if I submit the page but I dont want that.
As I understand PHP has to use AJAX to store SESSION variable with simple link. I like to click on link and SESSION variable (SUBMIT) will be stored inside each SESSION.Is there any working example how to do it with AJAX and trigger this link click to store SESSION variable?
Let me preface this by saying that I have ZERO experience with Ajax, and have simply copied this code from a blog elsewhere. What is shown below ties to a php file that I developed for a search function on our site. As the user enters their search term(s) in the text input field, the div below is populated with potential results through AJAX. I get all that.
However, I'd like to extend this a bit more. I'd like to enable to user to click the Enter key to follow the URL of the top search result automatically, without having to move their mouse and click on it.
Since I'm using PHP to generate the actual URL, I'm sure I can just send this back as a variable via AJAX, but with my lack of understanding, I thought I'd poke around here for some assistance. Can someone show me how to tweak the code below to accomplish what I'm looking for?
Code:
<script type="text/javascript"> function showResult(str) { if (str=="")
[Code].....
I'm less concerned about getting the Enter key to perform the submit than I am about passing the URL variable back to the form via AJAX. I've seen lots of examples of getting the Enter key to behave this way, I just didn't want to muddy up the original code above.
I have a page which has a dropdown box.On selection a value is sent to a php script (Ajax), based on the value a html table is created and sent back to the responseText.The table is outputted to the html page, I want the table to have sortable columns, so I have used jquery datatables for this, but it is not working.I have cut and pasted the exact table into the html and ran the page, and then sorting works.
After a star is clicked the form is submitted and processed. "rate.php" returns an integer from 1 to 5 with the new average rating. So far so good, but I'd like to update the Star radios with the new value and disable them after the form has been processed.
I am trying to generate an ajax form based on a database value of max and min years. At present i have the following.
[Code]...
What I am struggling with is the logic to say if minyears is more than 1 (string in option needs to say years), then add in every year between min and max as additional options. My brain has been melting with this for a few days now
Currently, I have a php form with various inputs, and a div where I am embedding an (initially) empty open flash chart object.Right now, I am calling a php file on the submit of the form, which takes the form data, calls a python script to process the form data, and then creates an open flash chart object using the data the python script returns.There are a few problems with this:
1. When the submit on the form is called, it goes to a different page where the chart is displayed, when I would really just like to update the contents of the chart div where I initially embedded the empty chart.
2. The processing of the form in the python code can take some time, so what I would really like is to have the chart "check" the output of the python script periodically and update the chart each time, adding the new data points to the old ones.
I know I can do all of these things with javascript and Ajax, I just can't seem to find any tutorials or examples that are exactly what I am looking for.
I've created a registration form with sponsorship options hooked to checkboxes. My original form used ASP to keep values in hidden fields to use for totaling everything at checkout time.
Now I'd like to use PHP and Ajax to place the value into the text field related for each option checked.
I'm able to do that making an Ajax call. My problem that I need help with is this: If the visitor decides to uncheck a sponsorship option, the value placed in the associated field remains on the form. How do I replace that value with a null or empty string if they decide to uncheck their original choice?
I've tried JavaScript to no avail so far, both in the client side and server side code. I'm very new at this and I need help. Will jQuery work without having to change a bunch of code?
I'm trying to populate a triple dropdown menu based on Roshans code The first dropdown populates the second one fine but when I clidk on the second it populates itself instead of the one below! I thought at first it was a simple problem with the element ID its not and I can't figure it out.
I'm trying to populate a form with information from a database based on a textbox entry. However, when I begin to key in the textbox I receive "undefined" in each textbox throughout the form.
Take a look at my code for any errors? It also appears that my $_GET['jobid'] is not working properly.
Not sure if this should have went into the php or javascript forum. I am trying to setup a script that will automatically population a html selection option based on the choice of the previous selection. If hard code everything it will work fine example manufacturer is currently being populated dynamically when the pages loads. The issue is I am can't pass pass the manufacturer variable through to be processed to only retrieve the models for that manufacturer. The code also uses a standard ajax script which httprequest in it.
I have a php function that list all of the countries from my database as a select option, then based on what the user selects for their country im using jquery to make an ajax call and get all of the states/regions for that country. This part works fine. I'm running into an issues, as when a user login's in to edit their profile, how would I make the select change based on what is in the databse.
