Combobox: Select And Text Input Boxes In One?

Oct 10, 2009

I have an in-house web application in which the user inputs items to a text field. Over 80% of all data entered into the field falls is one of three values, the other 20% is random. Can I make a select field that lets the user override the values with one of his own, or equally, create a textbox with a dropdown menu to select from?

The goal is to get the behavious of a web browser's address bar: the same control could accept random input, but also make suggestions in a pre-populated dropdown list.

Ideally, the control would work with and without the mouse, as the users are not confined to any single platform and we have Linux and Windows users as well.

I am not sure if this should be under JavaScript or CSS as the solution probably depends on both technologies.

JQuery :: Create Select Boxes Dynamically From Text Box Input?

Jul 13, 2010

I have a form where a user enters a number in a text box (txtTickets). When that number is entered, I need to create an equal number of select boxes. I've found code examples which show how to dynamically add or delete options from a select box, but I have found no examples which deal with this specific scenario. The select options do not depend on user input -- that is, I do not need to populate it dynamically. I need to create them dynamically. Has anyone created something similar to this?

Pass Combobox Values To Input (type Text)

Feb 9, 2010

I got a couple of comboboxes were the user selects a series of numbers. Once a selection is made, the value is appended to an input box. The idea is that the appended values form a telephone number, or at least part of one, that will then be used to search trough a database to look for a matching number.If I select "021" from indicatif, the script will append 021 to the input "blabla". The problem is, if I now select "022", the input will show "021022" instead of replacing the 021 with 022.

What I would like is that, for each combobox, the script replaces the selected value with the new one instead of simply appending it, like instead of say 021022555666 it would show 021555 or 022666 or 021666 depending on what is selected...you get the idea?Is this doable? Needless to say I'm a total noob at javascript.

Insert Info In Input Boxes -> Select Fields

May 28, 2009

I am working on a project that requires me to insert info in input boxes (2 input boxes to be specific, firstname, and last name are the two) and transfer that info into a <select> field when the button is clicked. So, let's say in the first input box which is first name I type Tom and in the second input box which is last name I type Smith. When I click the button I want the first and last name to appear in the select field as an option. Now, i tried researching about adding/removing options for the select field, but nothing on getting info from input boxes to put it as an option in <select>.

May 4, 2010

I have a requirement where i need to take an IPv4 address as an input, my web page has 4 text boxes.

SO here is my actual requirement i need to jump into the next text box as soon as user enters a dot (.) char without displaying the dot into the text box.

JQuery :: Cascade Update Of Input Text Boxes?

Apr 14, 2011

I have 3 input text elements:

<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="../lib/jquery/jquery.js"></script>

[Code].....

When user inputs text to "text1" I want to reflect changes in "text2". When value is changed in "text2" I want to change value in "text3". So I handle keyup event in "text1" and then successfully update "text2". But which event need to be handled when value of "text2" is changed?

Important remarks:1. I don't want to update "text3" from "text1".keyup event. My goal is to handle some event when value in "text2" is changed(may be by user or may be by code)2. "text3" needs to be changed immediately after "text2".value changed

Select Radio Button When Text Input Has A Value?

Jun 3, 2011

I have been trying to figure out this seemingly easy function and have not had any luck.

Anyways, I have a form with a list of radio buttons, and one of them has a "select your own" or "custom" text entry.

<input type="radio" name="text" value="1" checked /> 0
<input type="radio" name="text" value="2" /> 1
<input type="radio" name="text" value="3" /> 2

[Code].....

Essentially, whenever a user either clicks in the text input or starts typing in the input, I would like the radio button to be selected. As of now, if you open the page and click on the text field, the default 'checked' radio button still is checked.

Does anyone know of a simple "onclick" event or something similar to accomplish this?

JQuery :: Select All Input Text Types Not Having Class Already?

Sep 23, 2010

I have a form that has a bunch of text inputs, and I would like to select all that don't already have a class "errorClass" assigned to them. My JQuery currently is:
$('input[type="text"]').addClass("idleField");
But that adds the class "idleField" to ALL text fields, overriding the ones that already had the class "errorClass" assigned to it. What is the proper syntax to add the "idleField" class to all text inputs that don't have the "errorClass" assigned?

Show A Input Text Box If Select Option Is Present?

Dec 16, 2011

I have been studying php for a while now and i know that, i am now starting php oop and that going well but i have never done anything like this. Anway i am creating a booking system which at the end of the process asks who supplied your voucher which they then select a supplier.

The issue i have is my client wants it so if groupon is selected then an input text box should appear so that the user can input a security code from groupon.

So basically it is

<select name="supplier" id="supplier">
<option value="">please select supplier</option>
<option value="Groupon">Groupon</option>
<option value="KGB Deals">KGB Deals</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option>
</select>

So if value="Groupon" then <input type="text" name="security" id="security" /> should appear next to it.

page cant refresh as it will lose its data which would have taken the user about 10 minutes to fill out :(

JQuery :: Onclick Jump To The Next(x) Input (text - Textarea - Select)

Jul 20, 2011

I have a problem to solve where I have a Hidden set of 40 text inputs. A link to show 10 more of these in inputs at a time, all having unique ID's. The goal I am trying to accomplish is to set the focus to say the 10th input. If the "show more inputs" link is clicked then the focus should go to the next 10th input (really input ID number 20) and so on.

SELECT OnChange Auto Fill Other SELECT Boxes

Jul 25, 2002

I searched here and some other places on the net but cant find anything that suits my needs. I have a SELECT box with 3 values Code:

<form name="form1">
<select name="length">
<option name="length" value="none">--Select for All--</option>
<option name="length" value="5">--5 Days--</option>
<option name="length" value="7">--7 Days--</option>
<option name="length" value="10">--10 Days--</option>
</select>
</form>

OnChange, I want to invoke a function that auto populates the rest of the SELECT fields in the form. The select boxes will vary in quantity as the page is dynamic, but the values are always the same (like the code above).

Does this make sense?

JQuery :: Several Input Text Boxes - Reset Button That Acts Like The Form RESET Button

Oct 9, 2011

I have a table (not in a form) that has several input text boxes. I want to have a reset button that acts like the form RESET button. I thought I would use the following jQuery method:

Here's my reset button code:

Here's one of my table input lines:

I thought this would be simple, but I can't seem to figure out how to target the text that the user types into an input field before he/she decides to "reset" and start over.

I'm thinking that my problem is that I can't find the correct syntax for my line: $('input.firstname').value('')

JQuery :: Use One Input Text Field To Drive Two Hidden Input Text Fields?

Jul 16, 2011

I have a problem created by my complete [rookie] status – only second time venturing into jQuery. I created a simple shopping cart using php and the PayPal buttons (1: buy now, 2: add to cart). The php back end does it great, it generates the table and the buttons and everything works just like it’s supposed to; Except, I forgot to add sizes. So I found out what I need to add, and I realize that the way the buttons work, I will have two different text boxes for size. Not very visually appealing, and since I’m not submitting this to the server before it goes to PayPal to pay, I cannot modify it with php the way I normally would. jQuery / javascript are my only hope of making this work. What I want to do:Have a single textbox where [size] is entered by the user.

Copy the value from the [correct] text box to the Value=”” section of the now hidden field in the PayPal form That way, no matter whether they [BUY NOW] or [ADD to CART] the right size is submitted to the PayPal shopping cart. This is the actual PayPal code that I’m trying to change

<table>
<tr>
<td>
<input type="hidden" name="on1" value="Size" maxlength="200">Size</td>

[code].....

I got this far, and then decided to find how to insert the "enteredVALUE" into the right place in the input text field (what I called output) and I've not been able to figure out how to stuff it in there.
