JQuery :: Making Dropdown Show / Hide Depending On Selection
Jan 10, 2011
I have the following code that generates two dropdown boxes in a form, but I would like for the second to be hidden unless the first has 'Software problem' selected. Is it possible to do this?
<p id="parent-menu">
<select name='helpdesk-category' id='helpdesk-category' class='dropdown' tabindex="40">
<option value='-1'>Select a Category</option>
<option class="level-0" value="13">Software problem</option>
<option class="level-0" value="14">Hardware problem</option>
<option class="level-0" value="15">Suggestion</option>
<option class="level-0" value="16">General query</option>
</select>
</p>
<p id="toggle-menu">
<select name='software-category' id='software-category' class='dropdown' tabindex="50">
<option value='-1'>Select a Program</option>
<option class="level-0" value="6">BigHand</option>
<option class="level-0" value="7">IRIS</option>
<option class="level-0" value="8">MS Outlook</option>
<option class="level-0" value="9">MS Word</option>
<option class="level-0" value="10">MS Excel</option>
<option class="level-0" value="11">Oyez</option>
<option class="level-0" value="12">Internet Explorer</option>
</select>
</p>

I have a big form which I'm tidying up by only showing elements when they become relevant, based on the currently selected input (eg to only show an option for 'waist size' when garment type 'jeans' has been selected). I've done this many times, and probably used a different approach each time, so I just wanted to see what other people do. It's currently along these lines: "If a particular option is selected, then show this element, otherwise hide it".
Code:
//the onclick handler
function checkViewType() {
//go through radio inputs in the cell and check what's clicked
document.getElementById('supplierOptions').style.display=radioCollection.supp.checked?"":"none";
document.getElementById('subCatOptions').style.display=radioCollection.subcat.checked?"":"none";
document.getElementById('subCatTimeOptions').style.display=radioCollection.subcat_sumtype_time.checked?"":"none";
document.getElementById('subCatSumOptions').style.display=radioCollection.subcat_sumtype_sum.checked?"":"none";
document.getElementById('subcat_weekmonth_span').innerHTML=radioCollection.subcat_time_week.checked?"week":"month";
}
But it's a big form, with lots of nested options, and some elements can be triggered visible by several different options. So I'm looking for an elegant way to handle this without a million if..elses. Perhaps an array of element ids and which elements are allowed visible when that's selected.

I'm pretty bad with Javascript, but I need to hide or show a snippet of text (could be inside a div without problems) based on the selection of a dropdown menu (<select>). If they choose anything with the word "Series" on it, I need to show the snippet. If they choose anything without "Series" on it, then the snippet needs to disappear. I should mention the snippet is part of a form, just a checkbox but that shouldn't be a problem I don't think.

Im using a jQuery script to show/hide a div based based on the selection made via a dropdown.
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.3.2.min.js"></script>
The problem im having is that the value used in the dropdown lists are price values eg 10.00
Consequently jQuery seems to interprit these as css notations, meaning the code doesnt work.

Here is my dropdown menu:
<select name="peeps">
<option value="Frank Tompson">Frank Tompson</option>
<option value="Henry Wilson">Henry Wilson</option>
<option value="Bill Kent">Bill Kent</option>
<option value="Jessi McDonald"> Jessi McDonald</option>
<option value="John Hays">John Hays</option>
How can I make it so if I click on John Hays a JavaScript pop up will say Hello John Hays, and if I click on Bill Kent a popup will say hello Bill Kent and if I click on any other name nothing happens?

The code below lets a user select a drop down option and a picture changes depending on the selection. I am trying to make it so when you select an option on the dropdown the picture shows up in the center of the screen and in the background behind the text. Here is the code.
<html>
<head>
<style type='text/css'>
#txt {background-repeat:no-repeat;width:200px;height:200px;}
</style>
<script type='text/javascript'>
function div_bg(team){
document.getElementById('txt').style.backgroundImage="url(images/" + team + ".jpg)";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select name='team' onChange='div_bg(this.value);'>
<option name='arsenal' value='arsenal'>Arsenal</option>
<option name='liverpool' value='liverpool'>Liverpool</option>
</select>
<div id='txt'></div>
</body>

I have a multipage form. I can put data entered in hidden form elements from previous pages. I want to show or hide table rows depending on this data value.
For example, I collect a list of names in first form, but if some names are blank I dont want to show the table row associated with that name to collect more data.
I have seen loads of code to toggle rows but cant find any which shows me how to toggle on a variable.

I want that a <div> element will show when yes is selected and when no it should be hidden. For show and hind i will use the functions from the jQuery UI. But I don't find a way to call the hide / show function when the selection change.
The radio selection: <input type="radio" name="lang_anz" value="1"> Yes<br> <input type="radio" name="lang_anz" value="0" checked="checked"> No<br> When I understand the documentation I can request the current value from the radio with: <script type="javascript"> $('input:radio[name=lang_anz]:checked').val(); </script>But how i can now call the show / hide function when I change the selection?

Apologies if this question has been asked a million times. I am fairly new to this game, have got my head around html & css and now it's time to add a little interactivity... BUT i've hit my first brick wall. I am setting up a (big) panel of text which i wish to present in a more reasonable fashion by hiding the content and only showing the headers. Got the Hide:Show function working ok as shown below, but I am stuck on my next requirement...
Basically The hidden text will show and hide when told by clicking on the relevant header - but i wish to hide the text in a visible area when clicking on a new header.

I can't figure out why it dosen't work. I'd like to show/hide a <p> block depending on the value selected in the dropdown list:
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#report_rep_type').change(function(){
$('#report_rep_type').change(function(){
if($(this).text()!= 'Contigency Liabilities/Others')
$('#someElement').hide();
else
$('#someElement').show();
});
});
});
HTML code:
<form action="my action>
<fieldset>
<legend>Report details</legend>
<p>
<label for="report_rep_type">Report type</label><br />
<select id="report_rep_type" name="report[rep_type]"><option value="">Please select</option>
<option value="Scientific & Technical">Scientific & Technical</option>

I have a form with three radio options. And I have three buttons:
<input type="submit" name="mainform_action" value="Edit Data">
<input type="submit" name="mainform_action" value="View Data">
<input type="submit" name="mainform_action" value="Delete Data">
If the first radio button is selected, I only want all three buttons to be
visible to the user.
If the second radio button is selected, I only want the "Edit Data" and "View
Data" buttons to be visible.
If the third radio button is selected, I only want the "View Data" button to be
visible.
Is it possible to accomplish this in Javascript? In particular, I want to
continue using the "input type=submit" buttons without having to create my own.

I have 3 divs that contain radio with labels and beneath each radio button I would like to show/hide a form based on whether the radio is selected or not.
Code idea:
So if the radio1 input is selected this would show form1. Selecting radio2 input would hide any other forms (form1, form3) and show form 2 etc.

I got a table.Each row has a list of statuses.If status == yes, then several elements will be shown in the rowif status != yes, then hide those elements.Im not sure if I have made a good solution, but it seem to work ok (opera9.6, ff2, ie7)The status selector passes on a unique rowid, and itself. This way the js function can get the row, and the status of the selection. Then toggle various elements in that row.Only annoying thing is the way row elements are named and found. It kinda have to rely on some hard coding, but its ok I guess.Im not sure if its possibel to just call toggle( this ), and that way get to the elements in the row.

I am setting up a contact form, and want to have a drop down box with a handful of options. Clicking one option should display fields to input username & password, whereas all others will not. So far, I've tried and (replacing 'none with 'block' for the option that is supposed to show the input fields) but neither does what I need it to. I'm fairly new to javascript, just muddling my way through with the aid of tutorials.

I've been trying to show/hide something if one of some different options is selected in a dropdownmenu.
This is the code I've landed on so far:
Usually I would place the script in the head tags, but for some reason div2 shows if I do that.

I'm trying to show/hide a simple piece of text and a text field on a
form based on what choice is made from a drop down box.
<select name="dropdown" size="1">
<option selected value="">Please make a selection</option>
<option value="1">Choice 1</option>
<option value="2">Choice 2</option>
<option value="3">Choice 3</option>
<option value="4">Other</option>
</select>
i.e. if Choice 2 is selected I'd like to display a new <tr> with the
following:
<tr>
<td>New text field:</td>
<td><input name="newField" type="text size="20"></td>
</tr>
if any other choices are made, I don't want to display anything.
I've tried several onchange() functions but can't achieve what I'm
looking for.
