JQuery :: Getting The "typed" Value Of A Combobox?
Aug 20, 2011
I have been working with the jquery ui combobox but when I try to access it, it gives me what I believe to be the closest value in the select control. I'm trying to pull the value of what was selected or entered.
I'm using this in conjunction with asp.net. To eliminate that and just focus on jquery. If I had a combobox and a hidden field, upon leaving the combobox, how would I set the hidden field of the value that was either selected OR typed in.
My workplace has a lot of people doing manual entry. I'm looking to provide some friendly automatic formatting of data as they type it. I have working code (thus far) but I want to ensure I'm doing things in a sane way (there's a surprising amount you can do insanely that still works Here's a function below that transforms a phone number - the worker enters the digits(only), the field reflects (and could also accept) the fully formatted version (e.g. (123) 456-7890 ). I'm building this towards a plugin model (ala masked input with happy
I think I have what is a simple question: I would like a checkbox to be checked if it is not already when a user types in the text area beside it. Form layout is demo'd below.
<table> <tr> <td><input type="checkbox" name="box[1]" value = "x"></td> <td><textarea name="area[1]">
I'm trying to validate the text of an input as it is typed.I have this keyup:[code]The idea is that only let the user type a decimal number; and it does.The only problem is that it let type a dot [decimal separator I need] at the beginning; and I don't want that.I've been a while and searched Google for the Reg Exp, but had no luck.
my page allows the user to enter a number in a text box and a search request is sent to the server (if the user stops typing for 200ms) using AJAX. The following is the desired behavior.
(1)User starts typing a number in the text box. As the user is typing, no search requests are sent to the server.
(2)Once the user stops typing (i.e. no key events for 200 ms), use $.post() to execute a search.What is a good way to detect that the user hasn't typed anything for 200 ms?Is there anything in JQuery that I can use?
I'm working on creating a custom calculator to determine the amount of money / credits users may earn from referrals. I've tested onChange, and it will work only when I have changed to a new field or clicked off that field. How do I make this calculate live?
So if the current value is 5 and I change it to 6, it will automatically recalculate the new value.
You can see what I'm working on here:

Note: The one I'm testing is the 1st Level field. For now i'm just having it display the date.
<select name="combobox"> <option value="value1">THEVALUE1</option> <option value = "value2">THEVALUE2</option> </select>
and let's say i select "THEVALUE2". i have a button to display the value that is selected, is there any way to display "THEVALUE2" instead of "value2" ?
My client has a training site that is associated with 4 different domains. If a user navigates away from one of the domains to another site (for instance google or msn) they want to display a message and ask them if they want meant to leave the training site. my understanding of the window.location.href is that it will not capture what is typed into the address bar until the request is submitted to the server but by then they are leaving the site. below is my code on the onbeforeunload event. concept: i want to capture the URL, compare the hostname and if the host name is one of the 4 domains then allow them to proceed if it is not then as them if they want to leave the site. if they click ok allow them to move forward, if the click cancel then reload the page. I know this is considered bad design and i have expressed this but this how they want the site to behave.
<script type="text/javascript"> function SiteCheck() { var strCurrentURL = window.location.href; var strNewHostName = strCurrentURL.split("/"); // for(i = 0; i < strNewHostName.length; i++) { alert(i + ' ' + strNewHostName[i]); } [Code]...
I want a script that "types" my text letter by letter and also deletes the text letter by letter. I want it to look as if someone is typing the text live, and then when the start of the text deletes (letter by letter), it would start from the beginning, erasing the letters in the same pace new letters are being "typed". So this way you would never see the whole text, but only a bit of it at a time. By the time you would get to the end of the text, the beginning wouldn't be there. And I don't want the text in a box!
I am writing an HTML builder. On thing that I think would be helpful is if the user types in
="
A javascript adds another " for the user, but puts the cursor inbetween the two "'s. In other words, the javascript should assist users in writing HTML/Javascript codes. This may also be applied to < & >.
I have found this script that can get your position in a textarea. I also thought this might be of help:
Code: var textarea = document.getElementById('code'); var tmp = textarea.value; textarea.value = textarea.value.substring(0, textarea.selectionStart) + '"' + tmp + textarea.value.substring(textarea.selectionEnd);
Although I have tried, I have not been able to piece the scripts together.
I'm attempting to bind an event to a combo box, so that when a value is selected I can kick off a function. I cannot seem to bind an event successfully. I have looked at the .select event and tried it, and perhaps I don't understand how this code is to be used:
Supply a callback function to handle theselectevent as an init option.$( ".selector" ).autocomplete({ select: function(event, ui) { ... } });Bind to theselectevent by type:autocompleteselect.$( ".selector" ).bind( "autocompleteselect", function(event, ui) { ... });
Do I need to add both of these? Just one? I've found the place in the combobox code where the underlying select box changes, but I don't want to hack at this code. I'd be happy to look at a successful implementation.
This function allows you to generate a Dynamic ComboBox via another combox selected. That is, it generates a combobox according to the one you selected first, as a filter. But consegigo not change the variable "uf" to "select ". When I change this variable appears the following error message: Notice: Undefined index: in uf cidades.php on line 5
I have a script that allows ONLY numbers to be typed into a text field. I have tried to modify this script to allow Decimals (periods) to be typed as well, but haven't succeeded. The code in Red are the changes I added to this script, but it isn't working out.
Second Problem: I need to set a Minimum number users may type in the text field. Normally this would be a simple task, but the minimum number they may type is a decimal (0.10). The default value in the field is .50. I tried replacing the .50 with .09, and I can't get the field to run the script and set its new value to .10 (<- this is the minimum). Here is the code I am working with.
is there a way to determine whether a user clicked on a link vs typed in the url to get to a page? I'm trying to stop users from messing with GET forms (and i have to use them, POST wouldn't make sense in this case).
I am trying to use the code below to create the following behavior for comboboxes with class = "requiredCombo" -
1. If the selected index is 0, I want the font to be grey; otherwise black.
2. When the mouse enters the box, I want to change the font to black while the user is making a selection.
3. If the mouse leaves the combo and the user did not click (that is, they just ran the mouse over the combobox) and the selected index is 0, I want the font to be grey otherwise black.
4. If the user clicks on a selection and it is not index = 0 I want the font to be black.
The following code works great in Firefox but in IE 7 when I include the "mouseleave" code, the dropdown list opens up when I click the dropdown but as soon as I try to move into the list to make a selection, the dropdown list closes. Any suggestions what I can do?
I've a text box and a database table entry corresponding to the element. Now, I want to show suggestions as users keep on typing in the text box, the matching words from the database, similar to displaying friends as in facebook search.
I want to run a function when text is typed into an input field. So every time 1 character is put in it will process a function. However I do not know how to accomplish this. I tried the onchange attributed but that seems to only work when you unselect the input field.
how this might be accomplished? I'm also comfortable with jQuery if you think that's a better option.
I have the following code which populates a combobox from an existing select field and then makes an AJAX call to a JSONP feed. This is all working and the dropdown list is populating however when I place the following code inside the AJAX call the combobox select function is not fired when the item is selected.
I'm creating a page that calculates a number depending on what value is inputted into a text field. I need to create some javascript that updates this new calculated value and outputs it next to the input field. Anytime the user changes the number, it recalculates the value. My calculation is currently being produced by PHP, however if I need to, I can create javascript as well to recalculate these numbers.
We want to emphasize the top about 10 items (number varies based on other criteria) in bold or perhaps a lightgray background. The Ajax Toolkit ComboBox is filled from an SQL database. After it is filled (or perhaps while it is being filled) we'd like to bold the top so many items. How to do this in JQuery?
