Hi!, I want to fix via javascript the combo width to a fix value. I'd like to implement a kind of ALT / TITLE function to show the entire option when the text is longer than the combo width...
View 3 RepliesI'm using the following code to remove an option from a select control based on a selection in a different select control and the option text in the select option that is being removed. The code works as I want it to, but I would prefer to use the option value for identifying the option to remove instead of using the option text. I've tried several different ways to do this, but can not find the proper syntax.

I am trying to extract value of a dropdown on select and use it in a function. Jquery has .each method to loop over matches, but I just need the first match. I could use each and break loop after first run, but there must be a better way..
Can I use something like this?
I wish to know if is possible to change the selected option in a SELECT selecting a determined option into another SELECT in the same form.
E.g: When I select the option "Istruction" in the SELECT named "A" I wish the SELECT "B" change the default state from "empty" to "other"
I'm using Prototype and scriptaculous either, but here it is:
I have two select areas and scripts to transfer items between the two.
Everything works great in FF, but in IE when an option gets removed it
removes the entire select area. Has anyone ever seen something like
this before?
According to [URL] intended way for jQuery to change dynamically the selected option of a dropdown select control isassigningthe desired text instead of the value. I found this way veryinconvenient (data structures usually deal with value codes, not value descriptions) and it seems to work only sometimes.
Trying different options I came out with this approach that seems to do the job so
far:
function setSelect(pID,pSelectedValue)
{
$('#'+pID + ' option:selected').removeAttr('selected');

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a form that uses jeditable to edit-in-place several fields and select boxes. Everything is working great. Now I need to a way to add a new option to the select list. What I would like is the user select "Add New..." from the select list that would pop-up a dialog window where several fields are filled in. When the form is saved the select field is updated with the new ID and description. I use Facebox for pop-up windows to display notes when the user clicks on a topic. I know Facebox can be used to display a form. It would be ideal to use this ability when creating a new option for the select box.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've seen a variety of implementations around that enable selecting all or no checkboxes by using a checkbox to toggle that choice. However, I'm trying to find a way like this: I have two text links on my page: Select All, and Select None. How can I get those links to call a jquery function to select all or select no checkboxes in my form? As a little food for thought:
<head>
$(function() {
//function for selecting all or none...is there a way to make a single function that passes in a parameter to differentiate between selecting all or selecting none, or do I need a separate function for both?[code]....
I'm looking to accomplish in the Form when user select "others" from the select options , want pop up java windows user to field in the information.

I have a problem with the following code, when run on IE6 the value for
opt_sel is null but on Mozilla or konqueror the value is the option
selected (as expected). I have tried several books on the matter(and
google), but they seem to indicate that what i am trying to do should
work.. Code:
in my SELECT (like below), the option value has 2 values, separated with
comma ","
<select name="sIdName">
<option value="10,John">John</option>
<option value="11,Eva">Eva</option>
<option value="22,Danny">Danny</option>
</select>
How can I read these two values individually from Javascript statement ?
like one is 10, another one is John
i.e document.form.option[document.form.selectedIndex].value?
I'm having two Slecet Option inputs. When both are chosen i want to compare the two make sure they ar ethe same. Its for confirmation purposes.How would i get the value of a selected option. (I don't know which option is chosen, I don't know the id of the option, i dont know the value of the option. I just now the id n name of the select)
<select name="whatever">
{Loop here to output many options}
</select>
Given a drop down list such as:
<SELECT NAME=sections >
<OPTION>Merge</OPTION>
<OPTION>Nuke</OPTION>
<OPTION>Merge & Nuke</OPTION>
</SELECT>
If one selects Merge, then i want another form displayed with input fileds etc, but if one select Nuke then a different form will be displayed and if one selects the last option then both above forms will be displayed. Can anyone show me a script (i.e. javascript) that does just that or care for a example?
How do i select an option in a combo box? i have tried looking on the internet but dont really know what i should be searching for. what i want to happen is that when a function is called
a line of code will select a specific option in a combo box. something like:
//excuse the dodgy syntax
function select_combo() {
cb_1.select[3] //where option 3 will be selected (or 4 if first index
is 0)
}
the combo box would be something like:
<select>
<option>First</option>
<option>Second</option>
<option>Third</option>
</select>
The function would change the selection in the combo box.
In the code below I want to alert the selected option of select.
In Mozilla the code works (If I choose "3" alerts it).
In IE alerts: nothing appear
---------------------
<script>
function hi() {
d = document.getElementById("day").value;
alert(d);
}
</script>
<select id=day onchange="hi();">
<option>0
<option>1
<option>2
<option>3
<option>4
</select>
---------------------
if I have a select with more options,
how I can know if is there an option selected;
is necessary a cycle? or is there an inner property?
As far as my understanding of HTML DOM aka DHTML goes, is that if the
DOM structure of HTML document is changed programmatically using
JavaScript in the browser, it immediately gets reflected in the page's
view. For example, if following code is executed on say a click of a
button
var f = document.getElementById("f1"); // f1 is id of a form
var i = document.createElement("input");
i.setAttribute("type", "text");
f.appendChild(i);
the page immediately shows the new textbox under that form. But in the
following code, this doesnt happen.
<form id="f1">
<select id="cars">
<option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
<option value="saab">Saab</option>
<option value="fiat">Fiat</option>
<option value="audi">Audi</option>
</select>
</form>
<script>
// Gets executed say on click of some button
var c = document.getElementById("cars");
c.options[1].setAttribute("selected", "selected"); // doesnt work
c.options[1].selected = true; // works
</script>
the option in combo box remains same. I checked in Firebug that the
attribute is added properly. Using the selected attribute works. Why
so?
I have a bunch of select statements in a form, and each select statement
has an onchange="do_something(this)" in it, and this works
nicely..except when there is only ONE OPTION in a given select.
It seems you cannot 'onchange' a single option!
Well, that is reasonable.
The trouble is I have no way of selecting it since the form itself is a
dummy: The form action is basically to submit to a new script with
hidden variables carefully set to get the desired action depending on
the last option selected Code:
I'm iterating through each option of a select, and I need to selectively remove some options based on their value. Here's a sample option (I don't control the markup)
<OPTION selected value=7>Compliance</OPTION>
$("select[title='MyTitle'] > OPTION").filter(function(){
var v=$(this).attr['value'];
//other stuff
[Code].....
I have an event that when it occurs, I would like a specific select menu to change to the first option. Sounds simple, right? Well, I can't get it to work in IE 7, and I'm tearing my hair out. I've tried:
var modelid = document.getElementById('modelid');
modelid.options[0].selected = true;
(this generates a "options.0 is null or not an object" error)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a select box whose options are populated from an xml file,which works fine for showing one option at a time, but what I would like to do is have one of the selections to be to show all of the options at the same time. At the moment I have it working with a checkbox that works off a separate piece of code, but it would be great to have that option within the select box.
