Is it possible to reorder the options in a form select box with jQuery, either by drag and drop or by up and down arrows/controls?I have a form select field that users use to choose an item to edit. I'd like users to also be able to reorder items in the select box to change their display order.In the end, I'll likely send order changes to the server via AJAX.
View 5 RepliesI have 2 html-selects, one as source, the other as target. I want to copy the source-options to the target.
#sel_rel > source
#sel_new_after_rel > target
function openFormAddRel(){
generateFieldset("Release hinzufügen", "reg_edit", "form_add_rel");

While appending the option-elements to the targetselect the original option-elements disappear (exactly at step of line 13). This is unwanted behaviour.
I have an array of codes returned from a script which relate to select box options. How can I select multiple select options so I can disable them?
So far this isn't working for me...
Code:
for ( var c in codes )
{
$('option[value="' + codes[c] + '"').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
}
I've been having problems getting my select option to change the options of another select option. I'm not much of a javacsript coder, so I'm at a lost.When I select the first option nothing appears in the second option.

I currently have a form that the checkboxes are automatically populated. There is over 1000 checkboxes in total, 48 of these checkboxes are designed as main topics, when the checkbox for one of these 48 are ticked, it checks all sub catergory checkboxes as well as populates a <select><option> multiple list with its value. When unchecking one of the 48, it unchecks all its sub categories and removes them from the <select><option> multiple list.
The problem I am having is, when i select one of the 48, which populates the multiple list option and checks all sub categories... i go to uncheck one in the sub categories, which successfully unchecks the main category (as it indicates they are not all selected). It also successfully removes the sub category from the multiple select option list and its main category (which became unchecked).
When I go back to check the main category which makes all the sub categories checked... it re-populates the <select><option> multiple list with the values creating duplicates. I need a proper way of when I check a box, it scans the multiple <select><option> list to see if it already exists, then adds it again if it is not there. I have tried the following jquery:
$('#elemSelect option[value = thisCheckbox.value]').length > 0)
but it seems the length always comes out 0 (zero). I need a fast and efficient way of doing this there is over a 1000 checkboxes that can be checked and need to populate this list.
With CSS this is not browser save at all, so I wonder if this could be done with jquery.

I'm not sure if my term usage is correct, but using a select form field with various options. I would like that when an option is selected, a php query is performed, and the rest of the form is updated according to the selection based query.

I have two multiple selects on my page. One gets updated via ajax whenever the user filters data (we'll call that select "#select-1"), when they select options from that it then gets moved into the other select (we'll call that "#select-2"). That is all working fine but I'd like to refine it so that they can't select the same data twice.
So, basically, what I'd like to do is add logic within the ajax call to only update the select options in (#select-1) if it does NOT exist in the other select (#select-2).
I have no clue where to even begin with this....do I need to store the val's in an array and then search for each one in the other?
I have a long form in a tabbed interface, where I want to count the non blank fields on each tab (the form fields are text and checkbox inputs and multi & single select fields). The counting function is as follows:
// Input argument is a tab object
function
countFieldsOnTab(obj){
var counttext = obj.find('input:text[value!=""]').length;
[Code].....
The counts of text, checkbox and multi-select fields works, but the single select count doesn't return what I want. The default option in single selects is a default where the value is blank "<option value="">-- make a selection -- </option>. These will be found as selected options.
How do I count only those options have have a non-blank selection?
I am populating a number of Select boxes on the server-side with a large number of options. I'd like to get the response size down without taxing the client browser too much. What do you think is the most efficient way to approach this problem?
Here are some considerations: The option text/values do not change very often, but could potentially change in the future. The page that holds the select boxes should never be cached, there are other aspects of the page that need to remain fresh. Firebug with YSlow is saying that the primed cache size of the page is 300Kb with all the select dropdowns and options, if I remove the options, the primed cache size of the page is 80Kb. I am considering breaking out the text/value pairs for the select boxes into a separate file that is cache-able calling it "valueTextPairs.js" and referencing it with a query string and some sort of server-generated MD5 hash of the data, so that if any of the values change, the client's cached version will be replaced by the latest version. Like so:[URL]...
Provided I do this, I anticipate that the primed cache size of the page will be reduced down to 80Kb (which I like) -- however, before I take the plunge, I am curious what you all think the performance effect will be?
I know the number of bytes on the wire will be reduced, but will this put a lot of additional pressure on the client's browser because I'd need to traverse the name/value pairs and add the options to the select boxes dynamically on the client end? If it seems reasonable to do this, what jQuery approach would be the most efficient? $('#selectId').html(options) with options = one big string? Adding each child option to the select in a loop? Something else?
Some client end folks are using IE6 so I am trying to tax the browser as little as possible, while also reducing the size of each request, trying to find a happy medium..
Since its not multiple its not going to show all the 3 options selected, so I created a little button with the easy statement in JQuery it is working, it makes the Select Multiple, it expands the Select and make the items selectable, but on the other hand it does not show the already selected options.

I've been playing around with the following code for days already and still in the dark tunnel. Can someone tell me what's wrong with the way I've coded it?

selOpt.setAttribute('type', 'select');
selOpt.option = document.forms[0].Country.option;

I am wanting to change the option of a select box when a customer clicks on a thumbnail image. code...
When the customer clicks on one of the thumbnails to the left, I want it to change the item that is selected on the right.
How do I do this?
I tried to change the innerHTML and it erased everything in the select box, so I'm quite sure that is not the right way.
I have a select and list of options. I have onkeypress event on the select input. As the user types I am trying to match the entered key strokes to the entries in the options and setting the selected value to the first match.
The problem I am facing is this: My options have 10000,0000, 10001, 1111,0001. Say I type 10, with less than one sec delay I consider them as one unit. So I try to find whether there are any entries in the options which starts with 10 and setting the value. But brower is considering the last entered key stroke , in this example 0 and setting the 0000 which is the first match.
Is there any way that I can stop the browser from doing that or any idea?
Here is the code.
I've searched the web and every tutorial I can find says the same thing, and I am doing what they say, but it's inexplicably not working.

I have 8 pages that are very similar. The only difference is the select options with different group of names on each page. I am using a global script.Is there a way to have a central point with array of names that would write or function in the select option depending on the page.Example below
array_a = 1,2,3,4,5,6
array_b = 101,102,103,104,105,106
array_c = 201,202,203,204,205,206

I'm making a <select></select> with lots of <option></option>. It
contains all possible options. Because of the length of the list, I
also have an <input type="text">.
This is what I wish to do:
onKeyDown I want all options that don't contain (or begin with, it
doesn't matter which one) the typed letters to be removed from the
<select>.
My problem is that I don't know of any code to find words and identify
letters.
I originally posted this question in the PHP forum and received advice to try here, they said it might be possible using JS and AJAX.I have limited experience with JS and none at all with AJAX.I have an HTML form in which I have a Select field, currently with about 100 options. The form creates an HTML email using formmail.Dependent on the option taken I get other details, eg address, email, telephone, etc.This is begging to be done via a database and PHP.I do not know if this is possible, but could I open the database, MYSQL, and take all the records into an array, open the HTML form and use one of the fields of the array to create the options list, when an option is selected use the other fields in the array to fill in the address, email, etc fields on the form and then use those values as variables to pass to formmail, which is a PHP program.
I thought that if this was possible I would use PHP to populate the array and then get it to call the HTML form where I could hopefully use the array to help complete some of the fields using SELECT.I would like to know if my thoughts are going in the right direction or if I need to go down another track.
If i have an existing HTML Select statement with options specified, and then based on an even, i want to rebuild that options list, how do I wipe the existing options parameters in order to add new ones?
