Dynamic Select Drop Down, Difficulty Setting Options
Aug 12, 2005
I'm trying to write a script with two standard drop down boxes. One
contains days one contains the month. I want to update the options in
the days box everytime the month is changed... i.e select August, and
days are filled up to 31, select September and only 30. The part where
I am having difficulty is that after the onChange event has triggered
and I have checked what the new month is, filling the box with relevant
values is tricky. Code:
I have a form on which two separate drop down values need to change based on which option the user selects at the top of the form ("dbt" refers to the remote database the results are pulled from);I have to stick to the names/ids otherwise the form will return an error.I've found examples that dynamically change ONE select list, but not two.
I'm using ajax to update options in several select forms.Its basically, like in most automotive applications, there is a drop down for brand...once selected, it will populate another select form with the "makes" of that brand. Once a make is selected.. it returns the models of that make... and ect...The program works fine for one selection. When one brand is selected, a second select box is populated with the correct makes of cars that brand produces, however, if the brand is changed, the select box with the makes of the cars is populated by the original query..twice... and then the second query. Looking for help on whats the best way to clear both the results array; i was using this...
autobrandsf.length = 0;
and also clear out the select box, which is what the removeAllOptions() function is for. As it stands, if i use the removeAllOptions(), the makes are never populated.Here is my code, broken down the best i could, in order of process.. ish.A select form that shows the brands is displayed, once a choice is made, it passes the value of the choice into this function, which will query the database
// this is the function that is called once a brand is selected: // h = the brand passed.. function carBrandCheck(h){[code]....
This is where, the query is returned, each row is split into an individual array, and then the second element of those individual arrays are put into yet again another array.The elements of that array are then compared against eachother to make sure there are no duplicates, storing the non-duplicates into a new array. The final array is then passed into a select form, for the makes of the selected brand.
// the ajax handler: function handleWorkResponse(){ if(xmlHttp.readyState == 4){[code]......
I've been beating my head against a wall for a few days trying to get this working. I'm trying to create a dynamic menu where a user selects one item and another select list is shown, then another and another (and so on). Here is my JS, it *should* be taking the ID of the div, comparing it to the selected value and then showing another div by settings it's class property to visible:
I have noticed a few requests lately on the forum where there is a request for a dynamic dropdown list (<select...> tag) that would display one set of options if one condition is met, but a different set of options if a different condition is chosen. This is my attempt to solve this problem for other users. The following code is a template to show one way of how this question could be resolved.
I'm a complete rooking at javascript (and haven't looked at php in months), but am wondering if its possible to do the following with javascript. I have a listing of 10 to 16 teams. I'd like to be able to list the teams in a drop down select box. And when the user selects a team, that teams listing of players is than shown below. The user should than be able to toggle through the listing to review each time.
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.
how to populate a dropdown based on Another dropdown selection. This all should be a dynamic. Eg: I have two text boxes one is TechID and other is JOB ID. When I start typing Tech ID it suggests me the list of IDs which start with the input string i have put in Tech textbox. When i select the Tech ID the jobs associated to that Tech ID should be displayed in JOB ID text box as a dropdown list.
I've been having problems getting my select option to change the options of another select option. I'm not much of a javacsript coder, so I'm at a lost.When I select the first option nothing appears in the second option.
I have two drop down box's in a form, how would I go about changing the options of the seccond one depending on what option is selected in the first one?
For example, if there's a drop down box with "a", "b" and "c" as the options, and another drop down box with "1", "2" and "3" as the options; then when you select "a" on the first drop down box the values of the seccond one changes to "a1", "a2" and "a3". This should work for all the options of the first drop down box.
While appending the option-elements to the targetselect the original option-elements disappear (exactly at step of line 13). This is unwanted behaviour.
I am trying to make a drop-down option for fields but not just for adding one row at a time. I am trying to put in the code for adding four rows at a time, which is what I'm trying to do below. Please advise. You will have to copy and past the HTML code below and open it to see what I'm talking about. Code:
I've tried searching the forums extensively for this, but to no avail, so apologies if it's already been covered..
As the subject of the thread reveals, I want to create two sets of drop down menu's with the contents of the second being triggerred by the option selected on the first. However, I want to retrieve the options set for the 2nd menu via a php/mysql query.
I.e Menu 1 boasts: Users and Members for options.
If I select Members, I want a query to run that selects all Members and outputs as via menu options.
I've decided to use the drag and drop option for my gadgets in my home page. The size of the gadgets may vary and user may choose the gadgets and choose the place too. Is there any api or libraries which I can easily configure the drag and drop option in js and php.
I have a for loop and depending on the numeric value will equal it to a dollar amount. then that amount will be outputted to a text field (grand total).[code]...
I came across a problem with multiselect plugin(we have multiple options with checkboxes in drop down). If there are two absolute divs in different panels, when we open the multiselect, it hides behinds the second div. May be its because of the nature of z-index in IE.
I have two drop down menus. I want two values to be added based on what they picked and then outputted to a text field to show a grand total in a dollar amount.
This is what I have:
Code:
Code:
Note I haven't did any type of code for the 2nd drop down menu just in case anybody says I don't see anything. I was working on trying to get started in the right direction.
I'm looking for four level connected drop down boxes. Unlike all the scripts I have seen on the internet I need all the options to be available if nothing is selected in the previous drop down. So I want something like combination of connected drop downs and ordinary drop down. If the selection is made, display appropriate options in other drop downs... Hope I'm clear...
I have found a script that works fine for me but I'd like to make it reusable but I have an issue with that. On the script I have something like
function my_function() { var $container = $('#panel .container'); } and I'd like to pass the id (panel in this case) as a parameter like in the example below:
