JQuery :: Autocomplete - Simulate A Select Box Where Displayed Value Is One Thing And Submitted Value Is Another?

Oct 5, 2009

how to use the autocomplete jQuery plugin best to my needs. I'm looking to replace a select box with the Autocomplete plugin, but not quite sure how to accomplish this. In my select box, I have the option that is displayed is not the same as the data that is submitted.
ex: <option value="123">This is Displayed </option> However, with the autocomplete, since it is using a textbox, the values that are displayed, are submitted. Do I have to hack around using hidden fields to accomplish this type of behaviour?

Autocomplete AKA Google Suggest Made - Whats The Best Thing To Call Database Or Xml

Mar 28, 2009

So I have a nice little hand rolled Ajax call to my server pulling a list from the database and displaying it in a drop down list dependant on the user input. Aka Google suggest. I am wondering if the quickest way to do this is to call the database each time with Ajax and search the results with the input, or to write an xml from the database and search that. Then when the Database is updated rewrite the xml file.

Am I underestimating MYSQL again? Or not, and I feel it would be good practice to write the xml file because it will essentially mean a lot less database calls. But I don�t know how fast searching an xml file would be in comparison to a db call. The results from the database are say 500 entries anywhere between 10 - 100 characters each. I want to know A. The best way to do this B. Lets say the site will have pretty high traffic so I am looking for it to be as tweeked as possible. I can test but thought at the end of my week it was worth seeing what peoples advice is.

Need To Simulate OnClick From Select Menu

May 19, 2006

I have a dropdown list:

<select name="select" class="mapMenu" onChange="JumpToIt(this)">
<option selected value="none">Select a Tool --</option>
<option value="javascript:onCreatePrintable()">Print Map</option>
<option value="javascript:onFindLatLong()">Find Lat/Long</option>
</select>

That calls a script:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function JumpToIt(list) {
var newPage = list.options[list.selectedIndex].value
if (newPage != "None") {
location.href=newPage
}
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

Which in turn selects an option from the original dropdown.

Works fine except.....

The options in the select call scripts that open new browser windows,
and when this occurs popup blockers swing into action and block the new
window. When I originally had the javascript calls as plain links such
as [HREF="javascript:onCreatePrintable()"] the popup was not blocked
since it was obvious that user was clicking the link. Now that I'm
trying to save much needed space by putting these links into a
dropdown, the popup blockers are not recognizing the user selection....
I guess. I was thinking the javascript could somehow simulate an
onClick to alleviate the problem. Any suggestions?

JQuery :: Autocomplete On Select Function?

Aug 22, 2009

I have a autocomplete box using this plugin[URL]... Returns results no problem. I can't get my head round how to add an event when a selection is made. Basically when someone selects one of the autocomplete options I want to redirect to a specific page (index.php?cms&p=tpl&s=edit&tplid='id of selected option')

$(document).ready(function(){
$("#searchfield").autocomplete('index.php?acms&s=ajax&amod=tpl&ajax=search');
});

hope this makes sense, guessing its really simple and I have just been trying to over complicate things.

JQuery :: Autocomplete - Using Select Event To Fill Hidden Field

Jul 15, 2010

I'm using jquery autocomplete to fill a textbox with some text but I need to get the ID of the item too. For this purpose I thought to use the on select event to fill an hidden field the problem is that the on select event is never fired.

This is my code
$(function() {
$('input#<%= tblNewInsert.FindControl("nazioni").ClientID %>').autocomplete({
source: function(request, response) {
$.ajax({
url: "offerte.aspx/fillJson",
data: "{ 'descrizione': '" + request.term + "', 'tabella': 'nazioni', 'campo': 'paese' }",
dataType: "json",
type: "POST",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
select: function(event, ui) { alert("never fired"},
success: function(data) {
response($.map(data.d, function(item) {
return {
value: item.descrizione
}}))},
error: function(XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
alert(textStatus);
}});},
minLength: 1
});});

JQuery :: Autocomplete Trigger Event If User Rejects All Autocomplete Options

Aug 11, 2009

Does anyone have a library or patch to call a handler if a user leaves an autocomplete field without choosing one of the autocomplete options - i.e. they've entered free text. I'm working with an app that populates multiple fields from a single auto-complete value, and our latest requirement is to clear out a bunch of fields if the user's entered something manually - rejecting autocomplete suggestions. My initial attempts at hooking into onkeyfoo and onblur haven't lead anywhere productive, and I'm hoping someone else has managed to overcome the gnarly event and timing dependencies involved with onkeyfoo and blur being used for standard autocomplete behaviour.

OOPed Autocomplete Select

Sep 10, 2003

Ok, here's a recent version of a script I've been playing with. Essentially, it 'autocompletes' a selection list. What I would like to know is what browsers & which versions it works / crashes on.

Please note it includes new properties for the selection list (userWord & userWord2) and a method within the autoSelect() object

If you decide to swipe the code for your own use -- go ahead -- but please keep my name & url there -- I'm hoping to get it up on my site with full explanation before the end of the weekend.

Test by find "New York" (spaces important) It times out, and backspace resets.....

Select Field Autocomplete

Mar 11, 2005

I have a select form element structured like this:

Code:
<select name="buyer_id">
<option value="1">John Adams</option>
<option value="2">Bill Amos</option>
<option value="3">Fred Boon</option>
...
</select>

The name list is now getting huge and I would like to allow my admins to be able to type in the first few letters of a buyers name and have the select form "find" what the admin is entering. But I need the value of the buyer to be passed as the buyer's id for DB purposes.

I found a script on these forums that actually does what I want using a <select> field, but there is one little annoyance with it. Whenever a letter key is pressed, the <select> finds the first occurrence of the letter (as usual with a <select> field). It does come back immediately, but it doesn't look good when you are typing through the options and it keeps flashing from one to the other. Code:

it seems like an amazing tool once I figure out what I'm doing wrong. I'm using the awesome datePicker plugin, but am just not getting something right. I can't seem to be able to get datepicker to do more than one thing.To help myself figure out what Im doing wrong, I created a very simple example:

Help Me Do The Right DOM Thing.

Nov 2, 2006

I have read all the reason why DOM purists don't like document.write
and innerHTML. I would like to be a good programmer and do the right
thing and not use them. But I need your help to get it to what the
project needs done.

In the interest of brevity, the following code has been simplified.
You'll notice sDoc contains HTML and JavaScript, this is a
unchangeable requirement. PLEASE don't waste your time or mine by
explaining how un-couth it is. I know it is but there's nothing I can
do about. Answers strictly focused what can be done versus what should
be done will be greatly appreciated.

There are three attempted methods to render the sDoc. The first one is
to create a textNode and append it to a div. It prints the code as
text instead of rendering it, as expected. Is it possible to get it to
render?

The second method uses innerHTML and the HTML is rendered but not the
JavasScript.

The third method uses document.write which renders both the HTML and
JavaScript, but we really really don't want to use the write method,
but at this point it looks like we have no choice.

We've even tried to render sDoc in a DOM created iFrame, but it chokes
in Mozilla browsers because of the known bug of included scripts that
use document.write (once again another requirement that can't be
changed) kills the page as document.close fails.


<div id="foo1" style="border:1px solid black;"></div>
<div id="foo2" style="border:1px solid black;"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var sDoc = '<center><scr'+'ipt
language=javascript>alert(true);</scr'+'ipt></center>'
var myText = document.createTextNode(sDoc);
document.getElementById("foo1").appendChild(myText);
document.getElementById("foo2").innerHTML = sDoc;
document.write(sDoc);
</script>

Thank you for your consideration.

Remove Attribute - Loading An <img> Tag With One Thing Or Another

May 24, 2011

Under PHP control, I am loading an <img> tag with one thing or another. I'm trying to work my way towards not changing the actual tag beyond what is already there (don't mess with the HTML).

The HTML is:

Code:

I am switching the image src path to something totally different. A such, I need to have the browser remove the alt and title attributes. I do this by loading the following in the {SRC} placeholder:

Code:

Using FF2.0.0.20, View Generated Output, I see that these attributes are indeed gone. Yet, the browser still shows (definitely) the alt attribute and (probably) the other attributes as well. I have also confirmed this happens with FF4.0.1-Portable.

Jquery :: Open The Grid And Select Option "3". "3" Would Be Displayed In The Textbox And Buttons "A" To "C" Would Appear?

Dec 21, 2011

In my jsfiddle I have an application where the user can select an option and their answers and then display it in a new row. I have one slight problem though, I think it will be easier to explain if you follow the steps below in my [fiddle][1]:

1. Open the grid and select option "3". "3" would be displayed in the textbox and buttons "A" to "C" would appear

3. Click on "Add Question" button. This would create a new row showing the details you have submitted.

4. Now click on the "Open Grid" WITHIN THE ROW you have justmcreated and select option "5". Now the textbox within the row changes the value from "3" to "5" but if you look at the top where you first chose your options and answers, it displays 5 buttons from "A" to "E".

This should not happen. This should stay to what it was previously which was buttons "A" to "C". it should only change if the option is chosen from the Option Type at the top and not within the row.

Strange Thing Happening With Onunload And Google

Jul 23, 2005

I have set up a disclaimer page for our public access PCs at our Libraries which has the following function:

function breach() {
alert("Proceeding beyond these Conditions is..................... If you have read the Conditions, scroll to the bottom and press the 'Yes I

agree' button.")
window.location="disclaim.htm"

and then in the body tag I have onunload=breach()
This works fine for all websites entered into the address bar except if

you enter www.google.com

What it is supposed to do is bring up the prompt and when you click on the OK button it will go back to the disclaimer page. They should only be able to get to the web by clicking on the 'Yes I
agree' button at the bottom of the disclaimer page. Does anyone out there know why google doesn't fire up the disclaim.htm page like all the other sites? It is very frustrating.

JQuery :: Simulate A Human-triggered Event?

Jun 16, 2009

I'm trying to change the value of an input field (target) which depends on another input (source). It works well when I manually change the source value. But if I changed the source value with another button, the target value remains the same.

Here's the code...

$(document).ready(function() {
$('input#change').click(function() {
$('input#source').attr('value', 'This is the value changed by a
button');

[Code].....

So how could the target input detect if there's a change within the source input without manually changing it's value?
