Batch/Block-Mode Updates To Select Lists - How To Avoid?
Mar 17, 2007
I have this Applet-hosted Socket connection to my server and in an
ONevent/function I am retrieving all these lovely rows from the server and
inserting them into the Select-List. (The on screen appearance of the Select
List grows for the first 5 rows then the scroll bar appears if there's
more). So far so good. . .
The problem is that none of the rows I'm inserting appear on the screen
until I have RETURNed from my function; so If it ended up being 1000 rows
then the user sees nothing until they're *all* processed :-( Is this an
IE6-only thing? Does it happen with Version 7 or with other browsers? This
is disgusting!
Is there an option to set somewhere?
Do I have to hack/force some sort of event (with coresponding ONfunction)
and then RETURN from my function and have the ensuing function call me back
and repeat till eof?
All I want to do is see my rows grow and counter increment in the
select-list (or table) as they appear; is that really too much to ask? Is
IBM3270 emulation crap really as far as we've got?
When a user changes the select list called "reason_code_master" I need the uodatecodes() function to update all the other select list with the id of "reason_codes" with the same . How can I do this.
This code is supposed to batch transfer options between selects. It works flawlessly for single values, but when I select multiple options, all of them get deleted, but only one transferred.
I have a select box with information about people in it. When you click on their name in the select box, I'm trying to display information (Name, Address, Height, Weight) about them inside of a <div>.Now, what I am thinking is that I need to use selected.val() to pull the value (we'll call it id)of each person and have that id correspond with a row in an array. That row contains all of the information that I need.Does this make sense?I just realized that I posted this in the wrong java forum.
I've been tasked to create a form where the user types a numeric item id into a text field. Typing this numeric item id into the field will update a select list when the item id matches a select list value.
I am trying to write some JavaScript that locations to a hash. I use something like this.
Code:
The problem is I use the same code in two different pages. One is in quirks mode ie8, and one is in standards mode ie8. The one in quirksmode works, the one in standrds mode doesn't.
Any idea what could cause such a thing? I know hash can work in standards mode. However, do you have any idea what is wrong? I am kind of searching for a needle in a hay stack, here.
I have two select lists and depending on the value selected in the first select dropdown, I want to populate the second list.
I tired a couple of different ways, but for some reason, it works fine on IE but not on Firefox. On Firefox the second dropdown list doesnt get populated.
Any pointers on how to populate the second dropdown..
Heres the code:-
for(var j=0;j<array.length;j++) { this.document.getElementById("secondSelectName").options[j] = new Option("txt", "val"); }
I want fill a select list with the first list on page load, then depending on which option is chosen, fill another select list with the appropriate list. I'd prefer using only javascript!
I'm trying to create/add options to select elements in a form. My form has several select elements, only first is actually populated and visible. Each select element is on a seperate table row. Depending on the option chosen in the first select list, another row (select element) becomes visible which is then populated depending on the option chosen. I accessed the select element and created the option(s) using this format
Page uses the model dialog code from JQUERY UI. Was having the IE6 Z-Index issue with IE6 Applied the BGIFRAME plugin solution (bgiframe: true) ISSUE DESCRIPTION: When the modal dialog is triggered, any/all select-lists previously displayed are suddenly hidden. BROWSERS TESTED: FF2.x, FF3.x and IE8 behave no issue. Only manifests this way in IE6. REQUEST:
How can i improve my code such that the select-lists dont get hidden when the modal dialog is displayed?
I have a cgi script (using perl for database queries) in which I have two select boxes. I am populating the left select box with rows from a database, and then provide buttons for people to move items to the right select box.
So far so good, everything works, the move right, move left, and move right all and move left all buttons work, data is always sorted in both lists. My only problem is, when I click the submit button, the follow up program only displays data that was highlighted/selected in the right select box, not all of the data in the right select box.
I don't know how to tell the script, via javascript, to highlight everything in the right select box when the submit form button is clicked. I would think i could just call a function via -onClick for the submit button. I could use some help with the function to select all data in that list.
I've started a course on web design and I'm busy with a assignment on Javascript. I need to make a contact list which I'm nearly done with but I'm stuck with one bit, validating select lists, I want to do it using a case construct but I'm not sure how cause mine doesn't want to work.
I am new to JQuery. I am using Block UI in my application.In submit button onclick event, i am performing client side validations ( required fied validators )in asp.net.On clicking submit button,whole page is blocked and at the same time validation message is also displayed and page remains blocked. While performing client side validations i don't want to block the page.
I have a batch-file (*.bat) which logon the client to our server, including printer and drive mappings.
Now I want to replace the batch-file with a script for the windows scripting host, because I want the users to enter their username and password, and then the script should make the mappings suitable to the username...
I lookd for the WSH and VBSCRIPT and JSCRIPT, but I didn't get any usable information!
Is it possible, to write such a script? Or does the WSH not support this feature?
I want to create a form where I can choose a local file and the batch file will print it. The function is to print whichever file I chose.Here is the code of printpage.html:
I have a table that gets served off to a 3rd party site. Each row has "track" and "hide" checkboxes ... I need to save/update these settings as the user updates their settings so I can call them back later on future visits.
(cookies are not an option... because that is too easily lost and there could be thousands of settings over time)
So, I am leaning toward a AJAX POST using Jquery. Rather than submit on every change... I would like to store the settings in JavaScript and then batch submit every 30 seconds or on page unload. I have most if this working... it is the saving of the data and then batch submission code that I am after.
Let me give you the use case and a scenario:
Table with 100 rows and each row has "track" and "hide". Each row may be associated with one "subject" and multiple rows may have the same subject ... so when you track or hide... it tracks multiple rows (highlights, checks their boxes, and grabs the subject from a row field) OR it "hides" multiple rows based on their subject.
All that is working. (Yes!)
Now, because they could be clicking quickly through... they might track then "untrack" the same subject or hide then "unhide" the same subject all within a very short period of time.
I don't want all those AJAX calls!
So, I need some sort of data storage for the "subjects" that puts them in "track" and "hide" datasets ... removes them out if undone ... and occasionally submits whatever the queued up actions are (if any).
Also, there may be settings grabbed on page load that need undone (the track and hide setting grabbed from the DB that pre-dated that visit) ... so it may not as simple as removing from a data set... there should be an explicit "untrack" & "unhide" submission in those cases to update the DB.
I've been stumped. I'm usually good at figuring this stuff out, but I'm completely confounded here.I have a form with tables in it to add items to a series. The rows are being added dynamically by Jquery on the click event.
I've got a site that I want to update frequently and change leader sentences around when I want through different subpages without going and changing the HTML on every page. I'm thinking I could use JS and define variables as my "blurbs" and links and then they'd set up across all the pages as defined. Or I could dive into more of an understanding of PHP & mySQL (i know some basics). Any advice/suggestions?
i would like to add a feature to my website where by i can just enter in say 30 different lets say quotes or sayings or something into a database and for the computer to either cycle throught them one by one ... so each day wil hav a new saying or
for it to randomly pick a saying from database every time page is loaded...
I think it's okay to ask this question in this group, but if not please point me to the correct one!
How does one go about doing asynchronous updates between two web clients? Take Google Chat for example... how does Google Chat update a chatter's chat window with text entered by the other chatter?
I have been using the jquery countdown plugin made by [url] for a while and while I am pretty familiar with it, I haven't been able to accomplish what I want for one of my projects.
I want to be able to add hours/minutes/seconds to a countdown in real-time by clicking a button.
Let's say I have 2 countdowns. They both get their ending date from a mysql db, e.g: 2010-09-26 00:00:45 and 2010-09-27 14:45:00
When I click a button, I want the countdown Y to increase by the X amount of hr/min/sec, update my ending date in mysql, and update my counter for every visitors to see without having them refresh the page. I have tried messing with ajax, but wasn't able to accomplish anything close. (I got it to update every 1 sec but it would flicker then)
I want to have a textarea update a database column and then pull down the info from that column and display it, without refreshing. I'm using JQuery and AJAX and PHP and SQL to do this. So far I've been able to update the database row using my $.post() call. The strange thing is, my variables don't seem to be passing to the page - when I try to echo them or look at them they don't show up. Here is my simple index page and call (page names aren't indicative of what I'm trying to do, just placeholders):
