I use autocomplete on my application. The width of the dropdown is equal to the width of the Input element that is used. I would like to use a custom width for the Dropdown leaving the width of the input same. Can this be done?

The function will be
1.get the 70% width of the browser's screen.
2.convert that width into its corresponding px value
3.set the max width of the #mainContainer using the value got from the conversion/calculation.
Here is the css style for the container i want to set max-width with.
I have always been using Prototype but I finally made the switch to jQuery because of its good documentation and large user base.
I have a problem that I hope someone can solve. The problem is that I cannot correctly set a size of my dialog when loading the content using Ajax.
I have the following code:
The content is loaded but the dialog is not sized properly. I guess that it depends on the content being changed after the dialog has been initialized. Is there a nice way to solve this problem?
I tried the following solution (not very good looking but anyway...)
This causes the size to be correct but it doesnt center the window and it also removes scrollbars from the content. I must have the scrollbars but I want the dialog not to exceed the viewport.
Another solution is to download and use YET ANOTHER third party plugin but hey comeon, shouldnt jQuery UI be able to do this?
I would like to set the height of certain #div elements on a page based on the height of the user's current window state. It should draw the elements based on the size of the window at onLoad, and also respond to the onResize event.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI spent way too long writing a buggy and bloated jQuery script that is supposed to allow the sub-menus of a drop-down menu be a dynamic width (i.e. the submenu assumes the width of the widest list item). I am probably missing some base CSS property, surely it cant be this hard? My script I wrote is:
// drop down menu
var setWidth = 2;
var nextSetWidth = 0;
$jQ('.nav li').hover(function(){
var thisList = $jQ(this).parent('ul');
if (thisList.parent('li').length > 0) {
thisList.children('li').each(function(){
var thisSpan = $jQ(this).find('span');
var spanWidth = thisSpan.width();
if (spanWidth > setWidth) {
setWidth = spanWidth;
}});
setWidth = setWidth + 16;
thisList.css('width', setWidth);
}
var nextList = $jQ(this).find('.nav:eq(0)');
if (nextList.parent('li').parent('ul').parent('li').length == 0){
nextList.css('left', '2px');
}
nextList.children('li').each(function(){
var nextThisSpan = $jQ(this).find('span');
var nextSpanWidth = nextThisSpan.width();
if (nextSpanWidth > nextSetWidth) {
nextSetWidth = nextSpanWidth;
}});
nextSetWidth = nextSetWidth + 16;
nextList.css('width', nextSetWidth);
if (nextList.parent('li').parent('ul').parent('li').length > 0){
nextList.css('left', setWidth);
}}, function(){
$jQ(this).find('.nav:eq(0)').css('left','9999em');
setWidth = 2;
nextSetWidth = 0;
});
//End of Drop down menu
The HTML looks something like:
<ul class="nav">
<li><a><span></span></a></li>
<li><a><span></span></a></li>
<li><a><span></span></a>
<ul class="nav">
<li><a><span></span></a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
I have a single select dropdown in my application which is hidden for one type of user group. Before a user from this group can save any data, I have to explicitly select the default value of this dropdown for him as this dropdown is not visible to him.
Issue: In IE, this default value doesn't get selected as it is not populated but works fine in Firefox. Is this a jQuery bug?
I've created a table in HTML but I need to specify the cell width client side. I need to loop through the cells and set the size based on the rendered size of some other elements.
I'm using the following doctype <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
This is causing me problems in Firefox. The width attribute is being set correctly but the actual table cells aren't being resized. Has anybody seen this before and does anybody have a workaround?
I am expanding the width of a combo box when focusing on it, but what I am running into is that with IE, setting the style.width on focus causes me to have to "triple-click" when selecting an option. This works fine in FF and Safari. Here is the bare bones of what I am trying to do...
[Code]....
After you open this, make sure focus is in the text box... click the combo, which will expand in width... then try to select something... it will take two more clicks. Three total! Use IE.
I made this:
Code:
And tried to change the value of the selection programatically with:
Code:
But the computer says after awhile that form.gallery_type_id.options[...].value is undefined in i.e. In Firefox, it works fine.
Is there any way that one could have supersubs functionality applied to drop-down multi-column menus?I assume one would need to calculate the width of each column plus the combined width for the container.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI currently have a website where i share thoughts with my friends (some kind of forum) and within this 'forum' people can post pictures they made but most of the time these pictures exceed the max width of my website so my website gets all streched out!So this is what i want: all images on the page must run thru some sort of function which checks if the image image width exceeds the max_width. if it does then the script must calculate how many pixels the current width exceeds the max_width and get this number so that the script does: current_width = current_width - (max_width - current_width)
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've recently start using Flexigrid (old JQuery grid plugin), and, as you may know, one of the few issue this really good grid plugin got is the lack of liquid layout option. My personal idea to solve the problem is to set the "width" parameter depending on $(window).width. Here is the problem (and here's why i post this question in "General use" and not in "Plugin").
The starting, and working, code is:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#flex1").flexigrid

This work fine for me, but I supose it could be done way much elegant... maybe somethin without "IF" that could emulate the "%", like var percentage = $(#div.id).width()*0.XX with the 0.XX picked from an array of percentage, one for each column. Probably I should set up a function... ahhhh, as you may easily see I'm a total beginner with JQuery (and JS in general...)
Is the next jQuery code the best way to decrease an elements width?[code]I tried using the next code:[code]but that's not working, also not with '-20'.Maybe it's an idea to add this functionality? It's is already used in the .animate() function for changing the position of an element.

All I know is like:
Is there any solution via jQuery?
let me try to explain better what I'm trying to do. I'm a real newbie I don't know much javascript but I understand more or less the logic behind it... tell me if this solution should work and if you know how to do it please show me. [URL]... I need to make div#photo's width to match the total width measurement of all the images it contains. If you load the page and you don't touch the size, it will work fine... but that's not realistic. If I resize the page, which will happen often on this kind of page (I'm assuming), the whole thing goes haywire (try it, scroll to the last image and resize the page you'll see what I mean). What can I do? Is my idea the right solution? Am I not explaining this clearly enough? Let me know please, I'm desperate. I've been trying to get CSS to do this for me for 3 hours now. Nothing works.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to setup a javascript function that sets a div's width based on the combined width of the li's with the name "navItem". The problems I have been running into when trying to define the width of the li's is that they do not have a width defined in css. Can anyone help me out with this? The javascript function setWindow is suppose to show the div loginWindow and set the width of it.

<div id="topNav">

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just needed a simple dropdown. So what better solution than jquery right? Well, when I finished it, I tested it out and it works until you try to click a link in the dropdown. It then disappears. Not sure if theres something overlaying throwing it off but I didn't see anything in firebug.

I need a code that when a button or image is clicked then a div's width and height are changed.
Ive managed to get a few codes that does this, but the real problem is that, the contents of the div is an embedded flash file and i thought that by setting the flash width and height to 100% then the flash would fit to the new size of the div, but it just didnt work.
I need a code that when a button is clicked then the div's and the flash's width and height are changed.
please have a look at the temp website latinunit net / temp / , you will understand where im coming from.
on the right hand side i have a flash chat in a div , div is controled by a script that allows it to follow the scrollers up and down.
My goal is to add a little button in the same div that says expand or maximise so when clicked the the div expands aswell as the flash file.
Using Jquery I want to populate a 2nd dropdown from the choice of the first dropdown.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to set the width of a div to be the same width of the image inside the div.The following code works great. But...The images are different widths, so both wrappers are set to the width of the first image. Without having to add an ID to each wrapper or image, can the wrapper width be set to the image width using the name of the image as the unique identifier?
jQuery:
$(document).ready(function(){
var newWidth = $('div.wrapper img').attr('width');
$('div.wrapper').width(newWidth);
});
HTML:
<div class="wrapper">

I have code for autosuggestion while typing in a text box written in Javascript and PHP. When I start typing a number I get a list of matching numbers and I'm able to select one of them with the mouse click. Now I have an other text box which should display a list of numbers based on the selection from the first textbox.
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe first dropdown has some options as :
abc(a)
bcd(a)
cde(b)
[Code]....
On selecting abc(a) in first dropdown the 'a' must get selected in second dropdown,on selecting cde(b) second dropdown must have 'b' and so on,also the second dropdown value should be disabled(grayed out) for user.Need the code in javascript.
I have 4 strands of hair left... I have been fighting with this one for almost a week now. I'm trying to pass the value of this dropdown to a function and enable another dropdown(and in the future create the populated dropdown based on this choice). If the original 'Select...' option is chosen it will then hide that second dropdown. In the following code the function actually resides in a js file which has been imported and is working properly. I have tried this as text and as value and both seem to be passing a null value regardless of the option selected.
