After an hour of hacking the closest I could get to
detecting the current value (Not key, but value) of select statement
that works both in Firefox and IE is :
Which is SICK, but I would be more than happy with it, except @ %$*@
Internet Explorer selectElem.selectedIndex is somehow always 0 (ZERO).
Now, for my purpose, I am desprate enough to accept just getting the
default (initially 'selected') index of my drop down (select). Is there
anyway to do that?
I'm curious if it is possible to detect the browsers default font and size? Most of the posts on this topic predate Windows XP, IE 5.5, Mozilla Firefox, et al.
I've searched up and down the DOM properties, looped through most objects and collections alerting properties and values, and I can't find anything. This leads me to believe it is not possible to detect the browsers default font settings.
what can be the reasons for the same code which works perfectly in notepad to not show its result in a jsp application done using eclipse??anything to do with settings?
I am not able to display the current date as default in dd/mm/yyyy format in drop down menu..only dd and yyyy apears but month isnt apearing as default..
can u suggest alternative logic and its code to implement the same??
I need to know when the select element's dropdown list is opened (as when the user clicks on the arrow or does ALT-downarrow from the keyboard). Similarly, I need to known when the dropdown list closes.
The closing of the dropdown list can happen without changing the dropdown, hence the onchange event is not a sure way to determine that the dropdown list closed.
I'm trying to figure out how to preselect a country in a form, I have this so far: -------------------- <form name=order> <select name=country> <option value="aaa">aaa</option> <option value="aaa">bbb</option> <option value="bbb">ccc</option> </select> </form> <script> document.order.country.selectedIndex=1; </script> ---------------------
But I would like to be able to preselect a country based on the option value. Something like (this doesn't work obviously):
document.order.country.selected.option='bbb'
The default value for the country will be supplied by a previous form, so it changes depending on what has been selected in the previous form.
I've got a <textarea> and I want to put some default text in it.....easy enough...... but when the user clicks on the box (to put their own text) I want the default text to be highlighted.
How can I get the text highlighted when the user clicks on the textbox area?
I have a select list #technology. Due to some back end processing it's default value is "0" (Please Select) I am trying to write a validation rule to make it required. The problem I'm having is that if you hit submit when it shows "Please Select" which has the value="0" then make a different selection it's not removing the error msg. Also if you hit submit multiple times when it is showing Please Select it just keeps adding the error msg
Is there anyway I could control the selected item, and put it on the top of the current selection box. I know for the first and last 4 item, it may not be able to show on the top of the select box. But if I have hundreds of record, I want the selected item to show on the top if they not the first or last 4. And I am not interested in the items before the selected item either.
I have the testing code below.
<HTML><HEAD><SCRIPT type="text/javascript"> function searchSel() { var input=document.getElementById('txt').value.toLowerCase(); var list=document.getElementById('items').options;
How do you folks handle <select> lists with no default option selected? I have mocked up a simple sample but in reality I may have a dozen different categories. (Link:Do you disable all other hidden <select> elements so that their values are not sent in a POST request?
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.
As soon as I add this line of code, .selected is nothi-lightedany more. Now, I understand that this is the way this function is supposed to work (guess so,otherwiseit's a bug), but I couldn't find any function in documentation that would go from my current element to the first element that has that classapplied and skip everything in between.
I am working on a simple switch statement that will select the current url and perform a simple action Here is what I am trying:
var url = window.location; //alert(url); switch($(url).val()) {
[code]...
so far my site is loading fine and all the jquery is working, but I am having a real problem getting my alert() to fire. I have checked the url with the alert() outside the switch, it is receiving what it should.
I have this reservation form found on the main page of: http://www.avis.com.lb/
As you can see the current month "August" is selected as the default month and so is the year and day (the day is programmed to jump 2 days ahead for the renting of the car...)
However if you look closely (check the screenshot attached) you'll see that the month "August" is repeated twice and so is the year "2009", the current month is repeated twice. What I wanna do is remove the duplication and just auto select the current month without duplicating it.code...
I've created the simple select box below that will "onchange" when an item is selected. I'm trying to apply the "selected" or "selected="selected" attribute to items that are chosen from the menu. Example: The goal is to show " <option value="/1" selected="selected"> " when page "/1" is chosen and to show <option value="/1"> when /1 is not the current page. I've follow a few simple tutorials with no luck and even tried php conditionals to trigger the "selected" attribute with no luck.
I'm trying to create a group of radio buttons that enable user to select whether to maintain the current image, remove the image or upload a new image.

My script is as below but I do not get it work correctly, do you have any advice for me?
HTML Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function Disab() { frm=document.forms[0] if(frm.change_voucher.checked) {frm.img_voucher.disabled=false} [Code]....
I am looking for a way to put all CSS values on my selected elements back to its default. I was wondering if anyone has maybe done this before and if not has any idea's to get me started.
The idea is that when I use for example:
The elements within .setDefault will return to its default font/color/height/width etc... so basically all posible values.
1. Take the current URL of the page and open a new window with a URL based on the current page. Some examples (I use "->" to mean "this URL turns into that URL"):I plan to use these bookmarklets in sequence, first pressing 1 to log into the CMS, then pressing 2 to edit the current page.
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'm trying to use JS to move the cursor from my user login text field to the password text field - I've put the onKeyPress() event in the user input tag but then I press the Tab key the cursor doesn't move -
function detect_tab_key() { var key_code = window.event.keyCode; if (key_code == 9) { document.forms[0].frm_password.focus(); document.forms[0].frm_password.select(); } }
I would to change the color of some td cells if there is text in it. Right now this code does the job, but it changes the color of evry table. I'd like to know a way to do this on one table in my page and not all of them.
var count='0'; var TDs=document.getElementsByTagName('td') var length=TDs.length; i='0';
