View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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 am using the Collapsible Checkbox Tree jquery Plugin.For that I have inserted this linein the javascrypt code:
When I make a list in the HTML code using the <ul id="example"> works perfectly.
But when I tried to make the list dynamically calling a JSON file, does not works fine.
If I insert theready(fn) mentioned above inside the javascrypt function that create dynamically the element<ul >as is shown next:
Improves a little bit, but still does not work fine. Specifically does not show the plus and minus sign, then I can not open or collapse it.
I tried also with thecheckboxtree pluginand I encountered the same problem.
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.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI 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 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 . . . .

$link = mysql_connect('myhost', 'myusername', 'mypassword') or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());

Here are sample division code...
The <div class="child"> width value is always 10 pixels less than <div id="parent"> width value. How can it be calculated so any width value is given to <div id="parent">, its child gets 10 pixels less than that?
can a table width be set dynamically with javascript by referencing the users browser window dimensions or the users video settings? ie: if the user video is set 1280 or less, then the table width is 75%. if the video is above 1280 then the table is 800 pixels.
it may not be a good thing to do, but i like percentages on tables except with large display settings. is it too much overhead?
another thought: would it be easier to implement server side with asp/vbscript?
i try to figure out how to calculate string width in a textarea while
typing in it. the textarea has a fixed start width. when the string gets longer as
the textarea width, the textarea should be made bigger while typing
programatically.
my only problem is to determine the size of the string in the textarea.
i know the font family and font size.
This script changes the image, I wanted to know if there is a way to automatically resize the div's height and width based on the actual image proportions.

To build a horizontal floating menu that matches the first row (header row) of my dynamically built table (to include text and cell height/width - needs to match exactly). I have accomplished 90% of this task by extracting the text and building the row in my floating menu header and placing the floating menu where it needs to be. However, I'm having a problem aligning the table (<TD></TD>) cells because of my dynamically built table.
Scenario:
I have a table that is built dynamically. Before it is displayed, I format the table row data (code that adds text/deletes rows etc…), which alters the width of all the table cells (via JavaScript). We'll call this (for lack of a better phrase) "pre_floater_table_format_code."
I then loop through the DOM (<TD></TD>) in the first row of the table to get the text and width from each cell (using offsetWidth and/or clientWidth) and assign the text and cell width(s) to variables that I use to build my floating menu with. We'll call this (for lack of a better phrase) "get_cell_text_width_code."
Problem:
The problem is that once the table is built (and before it is altered by the "pre_floater_table_format_code") it seems as though my "get_cell_text_width_code" reads the un-processed table cell width(s) and sets these variables to the un-processed width values. The "pre_floater_table_format_code" runs much earlier than the "get_cell_text_width_code." So why wouldn't the "get_cell_text_width_code" read the cell width(s) after they've been adjusted by the "pre_floater_table_format_code?" Does this make sense? Anyone have any recommendations? Alternative solutions?
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 the task of creating an asp page that generates a standard email newsletter. The HTML Image Width and Height tags need to be set to the actual image size (no they haven't been set to a standard size on the server) as they are read in via an while loop. I believe in ASP, you are out of luck for a function that does this, so Javascript may be the way forward.
My code is as follows for the image inside an anchor tag, as you can see i tried the min and max style properties for the image, but this does not set them exactly. e.g. width="120px" height="94px", which is what is required.
autocomplete border for suggestion list is not showing properly when i am changing it's width.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow can I create a Javascript drop down list File? I want to have a webpage that contain a dropdownlist. But i want the items and values of that drop down lists to be stored in a seperate javascript file, So that my webpage call that JS file whenever user click on the DDList.
Basically what i am interested in is to place all my drop down list Items manually in the javascripting file and then on the main page there will be links from alphabet A-Z so when the user click on alphabet A the dropdown list will only show the containing items start with alphabet A....
Hope this makes sense!! The reason why is because there is a long list of items and i dont want to put them inside my page.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI would like to use a control on a WebForm that acts like an editable
DropDownList control. The user should be able to select a value from
the list of choices, or type in a new value if no predefined choice is
applicable.
It doesn't appear to me that a DropDownList control is editable.
How would you suggest I accomplish what I want to do?
I have what I think is a fairly simple problem, but I cannot figure
this out. I have a SELECT object on my page. When the user performs
a certain action, I want the focus to be placed in the drop-down field
AND the actual list of drop-down objects to appear (i.e. simulating
that the user has clicked in that field). Ideally, of course, the
currently selected entry should be highlighted. Listed below is a
snippet of sample code. If the focus is currently in the text field
and the user clicks on the "Test" button, I would like the entire
drop-down menu to appear. I have not had any success with the
"fireEvent" method or the "click" method (only "focus" seems to work). Code:
The last two lines of the following code is not setting the value of the selector unless i debug it within firebug. when I set a breakpoint on those two lines it shows the val in the parentheses and it will set them correctly, but if I do not debug the script then it doesn't set them.
populateLists: function(executionLevel, contractor, program) {
var _chart = this;
$.each($('select#contractor option'), function() {
if ($(this).val() != "all") {
