JQuery :: UI Multiselect Not Showing Up Correctly?
Nov 17, 2010
I am using the "jQuery UI Multiselect" from [URL] I need to have it inside a <div> set with "display: none;" from the start. The user then clicks a link and the <div> tag opens op.
The problem is that whenever I open the box the Multiselect does not show up correctly, it shows up as a 3pixel wide stick. You can see an example at: [URL]
I've built a tool where users can search for something & the results show up in a select list as selectable options..... sometimes the results can take a few seconds to load depending on how many results there are... so I was attempting to show some "Results are loading" text when they search, & then hide it when they are displayed.
However for some reason it's not working correctly.. both commands don't appear to work until the select list options have loaded & hence rendering them redundant.... I have tried putting them inside separate functions but no change in the behavior.
What basically happens is I press the button to search & it searches & once the results show up so does the loading text.... however if I include the hide text command then the text doesn't show at all as it's hidden as soon as it's shown.
Here is the code I am using..
function searchCats(text) { // Set URL for ajax request var url = 'search_cats.php?search_text='+text; // Set up element we're modifying
I'm working with the quasipartikel plugin for multi selection. Available here:Mutliselect.Great plugin, very happy with it overall.However, on my page I want to trigger functionality when something is added or removed. Looking through the code, I see that a link is added for each item of a selection box with the class 'action'. Thus, I figure I should be able to trigger code of it, like so:
var j$ = jQuery.noConflict(); j$(document).ready(function() { ... j$('.multiselect').multiselect(); ...
I am trying to select all of the items in a multiselect listbox using a checkbox and and the change event. I have it working correctly but the problem is that it is extremely slow. There are about 420 items in the listbox loaded from a d.b. I noticed that the scroll bar also scrolls when the items are selected which i dont want.
I came across a problem with multiselect plugin(we have multiple options with checkboxes in drop down). If there are two absolute divs in different panels, when we open the multiselect, it hides behinds the second div. May be its because of the nature of z-index in IE.
I am having some issues using jQuery multi-select, it works fine but really lags when I have multiple instances (can crash the browser in some cases) am using jQuery 1.3 & jQuery 1.7 as the demo (have tried updating to the newer versions but problems persists)
I am using the following [url]
Does anyone have any idea to speed this up, or an alternative plugin that works a little better?
I'm trying to write a form and I need to allow the user to select more than one option from a list of options, if the last option is selected I have a hidden DIV that displays.This all works fine unless the user selects more than one option AND the final option "other" (ie using the control key to make the selection)... the code is below:
HTML Code:
<table> <tr> <td width="160">Select your color:</td>
I was wondering if there is a way to disable a multiSelect Listbox and still allow it to scroll for IE browsers only? I've searched around to no avail. Is it at all possible?
I'm using a multiselect box on my website, similar to this one: <Select Name="multiselect[]" multiple="multiple"> <option>This is option 1</option> <option>This is option 2</option> <option>This is option 3</option> <option>This is option 4</option> </select>
Now I want to set option 1, option 2 and option 3 as selected (highlighted) in javascript. How would I go about doing this? I tried something like this: document.taakform.elements['multiselect[]'].selectedIndex = "1" document.taakform.elements['multiselect[]'].selectedIndex = "2" document.taakform.elements['multiselect[]'].selectedIndex = "3"
I need to do a clientside check of a form to see if a "required" multiselect list and a checkbox have been left blank or not. To clarify, the user is required to select either one or more options from the multiselect list, the checkbox, or a combination of both.
What they can't do is leave both of them blank. Both the multiselect and the checkbox pass values to a PHPList script on the server as if they were one multiselect with the name "attribute17[]".
***Disclaimer - I am a total javascript noob and am piecing together examples from several days (and long nights) of googling.***
I'm dealing with a very long subscribe form, and so far I've been successful with figuring out the code to validate emails, select dropdowns, and checkboxes. This combination multiselect and checkbox is the last piece of the form that is giving me trouble. Hopefully somebody here has a solution.
For simplicity I've reduced the javascript and the form down to just the part I'm still having trouble with. Here is a piece of the javascript that I'm trying to use:
Code: <script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript"> function checkform() { if(document.subscribeform.elements["attribute17[]"].value == "") { alert("Please select your Primary Work Locations");
I got a pice of html that i want to transform to UI Tabs. This code is aouto generated and wrong, so I want to correct it before calling tabs() function
Using 1.8.16 I have a problem whereby the secondary, hidden tabs do not display correctly - the content is all messed up. if I click on one of the messed-up tabs and reload the browser window, it displays ok, which signifies that the code responsible for building the tab content is fine... so the problem is with .tabs()
I've got this page with some simple numerical validation : [URL].. but when the number you enter into the input fields are 100 or over the validation fails.
I'm trying to come up with a swipe gesture for part of the mobile version of my website. Right now, I'm just playing with mouse movements instead of the touch events so I can play with it on my computer rather than having to load the page up on my iPhone every time. Here's the problem: onmouseup, I run a calculation to determine where the closest element is to the edge of my container. Whichever one is the closest, I do a simple animate() to that element. It looks like this:
The following method below seems to behave unexpectedly under certain conditions.
$('#myDiv').empty().append(someText); I beleive, (imho), that the empty() function requires some time to execute and interferes with the append() function. I say this because adding a setTimeout() to delay the append() will correct the eratic behaviour.
