Dynamic Population Of Drop Down List
Oct 2, 2009
I am trying to populate a drop down list in an HTML form that pulls it's data from a datbase. Basically, the users can manage the values via a differnt interface, but the web page will present what ever values are in a given list. I can make the list from the database as a set of value pairs, but I can't figure out how to take that list and "import it" into an HTML page. I didn't post any code since nothing comes close to working. If I have this list:
Item, Name
A001, Cats
A002, Dogs
A003, Birds
what do I do to pull this into a form?

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 a table that has parts with multiple characteristics. Part Number, Height, Width, Capacity, Price, Etc. I would like to have a drop downs for all of these values, when a user selects one of these values it will filter the results into a list. Ex. user selects a part that has a Height of 6 and width of 10 it will only list those parts. As I said earlier, I have a script that will give me all the parts, however I am not able to make the onchange list parts with multiple values.

I'm trying to create a dynamic drop down box where the first drop down box populates the second drop down, but it isn't working. I have two tables; pricelist with fields,
-id
-groupname
-item
-price
groups with fields,
-id
-groupname
I've got the code and to me it looks as though it completely works, but i think its the fact that two of the fields have the same name, and it's causing problems.

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 have a form that has a pretty complicated combo box - a user starts typing text, it queries a database for matches, and displays the results to the user. The user can then select the match they desire and it has a value id, which I am currently sending to a hidden field in the form. So, for example: user starts typing in a movie name, Seven - it returns Seven and user selects it. The form submits the id of the movie seven (say 12) to a hidden field.
Where I am stumped: Once a user selects a movie title, I have another drop down select box that is to display the available formats of the movie by querying my database based on the product id (12) and returning the available formats in the list:
DVD
BLUERAY
VHS
I am pretty good at programming, but I cannot figure this out - how to make the select box fire and return results once the value for the textbox has been captured.

I am trying to create a drop down list which depend to the value selected from the previous drop down list. I can add it without problem, but If I change again the value of the first drop down list I would like to remove the previous drop down list generated from the first value. If I try to remove it when I create the element, it even does not create the element, the remove element function seems to work because when you click on the remove link it works.

I am asking jQuery to tell me which drop down option is selected in a drop down list - like this:
I would like to check if this was successful before I proceed. What are the possible return values for this statement?
If no id exists.
If no option is selected.
If some other problem occurred.
In these cases am I expecting a null return; an undefined return, a false return value?
And, based upon the complete set of return possibilities, what would be the best and most comprehensive tests I could apply to cover every base.

I have a page that displays a list of people playing in a tournament. I need to be able to generate a Leaderboard based on which players are manually selected by the admin. Next to each person there is a drop-down list. An admin can go in and select a "slot" that a player should be in on the leader board from 1 to 8, or leave it blank if none. What I need to figure out how to do is the following, when a change event happens on a drop-down list, and say the value 5 is selected, I need to check to make sure that 5 is not already selected in one of the other players drop-down lists, in other words, that the 5th leaderboard slot is not already full. if it is, display an error message and make them change that one first. how to do that with jQuery? I'm thinking it will have something to do with the each() function, but not sure exactly how the logic should work.

I have been struggling on a bit of code for a while now. I need to populate a second drop down list (Region) based upon the selection of the first (County).I have found a piece of code that works on its own and have adapted to suit my needs - see below. However, when I drop it into my main page the javascript is not working. It's because of the formObject but I just don't know enough to resolve this! Furthermore, I need the textboxes the user has already completed in the form to retain their value once the javascript kicks in as the completed form will submit to a database.This piece of code is working well . . . .
<?php
$link = mysql_connect('myhost', 'myusername', 'mypassword') or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('mydatabase') or die('Could not select database');[code]......

I thought this would have been fairly simple but it appears the onchange event isn't triggered when a hidden field is populated by other javascript without user input.
I have a simple search box and autocomplete/suggestion ajax thingie going on.
What I want to do is have my "Go" submit button disbled until AFTER a user has populated the hidden field "cid". A user populates this field automatically when they click on a suggested option from the ajax autocomplete doofer.
Here's what I've tried at the moment but failed on.
<form action="index.php" method="GET" name="qsform" id="qsform">
<input type="hidden" name="p" id="p" value="compdetails" style="border:1px solid #000000;" />
<input type="text" name="quicksearch" id="quicksearch" value="Find Company"

I want to code a world population clock similar to the one here [URL] but simpler: I want the user to be able to choose future years up to 2020 (just years, not months/days), and have the population grow by 1 percent each year. So far I have a code for the world population, but I have no clue where to begin in terms of making a list of the years with the option to increase the population.

You select an option in the first menu, it then display options related to
#1 in #2, then it displays related options to #2 in #3, then display
options related to #3 in #4.
What I need to do now, is when you select an option for #4, it displays
results related into a textbox.
If you need the code I currently have I can send that. If someone is
awesome in jscript and could write the whole code up, thats fine.
I really just need help to push me in the write direction. Currently is
uses arrays.

The menu would be such that, there will be a drop down menu with options let’s say Microsoft, Java, Oracle, now if a user chooses let’s say Microsoft a list menu already in place would display some Microsoft item like MCP,MCSD and so on. Then the user would be able to make multiple selections from the populated list menu.
I apologize cause I drop any code for this, I am coming from a PHP background and just know a handful of JavaScript.

In a JSP page I am trying to disable a Trade Class drop-down list if the user does not select the ADULT option of the Division drop-down list.
Therefore, Trade Class drop-down list availability depends on the option selected in the Division drop-down list. For instance, if the user selects the KIDS division option then the Trade Class drop-down list should be disable.
I am trying to use JavaScript to do this but I can't get it to work. I have the OnClick attribute in the Division drop-down list so that when a user selects any option from the list the index gets past to the JavaScript function. In my drop-down Division ADULT has index 1.
function enableDisableTradeClass( ) {
var index = document.frm_container_shipments.drp_division_fltr.selectedIndex;
//alert('Selected Division= ' + index);
if ( index != 1 ) {
document.frm_steps.drp_trade_class_fltr.value = "";
document.frm_steps.drp_trade_class_fltr.selectedIndex = 0;
}}
