Can A Select Box Be Single Select And Not Be A Drop-down?
Jun 27, 2011
I've got some directory list boxes on the site I'm working on. I made them big and fixed rather than drop-down so they're easier to use in this context. But I had to enable the "multiple" attribute to make that work. The site has no provision for multiple selections so it's a tad annoying when the search function selects more than one name in the list.It doesn't really affect the site's operation but it could be confusing to some people. Is there a way to make the listbox show multiple selections without allowing multiple selections? Thanks for any help.
<select onchange="display.apply(this, this.value.split(','))" multiple="multiple" id="People" name="People" style="border-style: none; height:244px; width:220px; margin-bottom: 15px;">
<option>Loading</option>
</select>

I have a scenario where I show a drop-down-with-few-items in a JSP page, to the user.
The length of few options in the drop down is greater than that of the drop down's, hence our requirement is to show the hovered (not selected) option as tooltip for user's convenience. I am not able to use title attribute for displaying tooltips in my browser.
Now the code ...
implements a tooltip for multiple select drop down menu.Can you modify the code for single select

iam trying to use 5 drop downs in my form for user to select languages and each select drop down should not allow the user to select the same language again and all my drop downs are populating individually from the DB on the page so if "English" is selected for "dropdown 1" then again "drop down 2" should not allow "English" to be selected.

I'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 have a single select dropdown in my application which is hidden for one type of user group. Before a user from this group can save any data, I have to explicitly select the default value of this dropdown for him as this dropdown is not visible to him.
Issue: In IE, this default value doesn't get selected as it is not populated but works fine in Firefox. Is this a jQuery bug?

Is there a way to override the default behaviour for single selects which makes it impossible to unselect a selected item?
What i need is: when someone clicks on an option, if it isn't selected is should be selected, but if it's already selected then it should be unselected.

Using jQuery, the hide show part is easy. I need to show or hide a single section of a form based on the value of a select box. More specifically, if the select box is one of 30 countries, then show, else hide.
What's the easiest way to handle this?

Tried searching for this, but can only find js events to remove an item completely from a drop down box once it's been selected. Example: On a page with many fields for entering different DNS server addresses, I have a drop down menu next to each field, and the values are "Main DNS", "Alternative DNS", "Third DNS", "Least Favorable". Since there can only be one main DNS server chosen, I'd like to know if it's possible for js to prevent that choice from being used more than once. Say there is a Main DNS selected, but the user changes his/her mind and wants a different one. When he selects a second "Main DNS", the first item will return to the drop-down default choice (most likely blank). As stated before, I'll gladly accept a link describing this (or even the proper term to use for a google search).

I have a dropdown box containing about 10 values.
I would like to create a separate href on my page that when clicked will
make the drop down box go to a specific value. I do not want to have to
refresh the page to do this. Is it possible to have that sort of control
over a drop down box.?

New to Javascripting, new to forum. I searched the forum, and tried to adapt, to no avail. I am building a store and want users to be able to see how two items look together. I have it working, but it uses a drop down. I would like to display many items and have the user click on one "image", from the display of "top" images, to display it on top, and from another section of "bottom" images, click another image to display it on bottom. For instance to see what one plant would look like in different vases. [URL] If I could be picky, is there a way to make it all happen in the BODY of the page? I use DW and a template.

I want to use a <select> drop-down in a form to let my user select a date from a list. The problem is how to easily update the list.
Easiest would be to have a list of dates in a separate file, and have code that would read the dates and write them into the <option> statements of the <select> control. Then when the page with the <select> control opens, the code will open the other file, get the dates, and update the <option>s. And all I have to do is periodically FTP a new date file.
I'm stuck in Visual Basic and FileSystemObject, where I can open a file, read line by line into an array, concatenate a string, and write it into a doc. I can't seem to find similar methods in JavaScript - no duh, because this isn't VB!
So _is_ there a way to do this? Maybe a certain way to create the date file so the code can easily find the values? (Like putting the dates into a table with each <TD> having a unique ID?) And assuming I manage to get the dates, I need to write them into the source HTML, vice in the document body.
What objects, methods, properties do I look at? Are there any samples floating around out there?

Here is my drop down menu:
Code:
<select id="DDvehAttr" class="FormField" onchange="DDvehAttrChanged(this)" >

I am trying to add a search button next to a select drop down with a HUGE amount of data. The search button opens a popup window that allows you to narrow down choices and select one that is in the drop down(that part works). However I can't seem to pass the parameter selected back to the drop down on the first page to have it as the selected item.
I am working with the scripts in the popup window, and I am trying:
window.opener.document.forms(0).Product(lngBoxNumber).value = x
forms(0) I think that is the first window.
Product(1) is the name of the drop down.
x is the value I am trying to assign.

On a form on one of my pages I have two <select> elements, and each one
is paired up with a radio button. The idea is to choose an item from
one list or the other and select the radio button of the list you want
to use.
I'm using JavaScript to automatically select the radio button
corresponding to a list when you click on the list (using the onclick
event handler). Is that the best event to change on, or should this
behavior be triggered on the onChange event - so if they don't change
the value they won't have to re-select the other radio button?

I have a drop down box in HTML using SELECT and OPTION tags:
<select title="Choose a number" onchange="obscure()" name="Digit1"
ID="Digit1">
<OPTION VALUE=""> </OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="0"> 0</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="1"> 1</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="2"> 2</OPTION>
<OPTION VALUE="3"> 3</OPTION>
</select>
Using the 'onchange' event I can fire a javascript function obscure().
How can I hide the selected number with an Asterisk (like a password)?
I've tried several different Googles but I can't find a method that
works.

This code is displaying English and French in the select list.
If we onchange the value in the jsp then its value is reflected properly in the java file.
But my requirement is if you have onchange its coresspoging selected value should be reflected in java file else the default selected value let say English should refelected in the java class.
But unless we cannot change the select dropdown value the the default data is not reflected in java class using bean.
What piece of code i change so that deafult selected drop down value data also reflect in java class also.
