JQuery :: ReplaceWith For An Option With A Value For A Drop Down Menu?

Mar 31, 2011

I'm trying to remove an option in a dropdown menu so it's default is not Select. I'm using jquery-latest.js.This is the html:

<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="column_main" align="center"><b>Size</b><br>[code].....

It doesn't seem to be working. When I do it without an attribute it replaces the lot of options which isn't what I'm after.

Buttons Do Not Refresh When An Option From Drop Down Menu Changes?

Dec 4, 2011

This is hopefully my last jquery question. I have a slight issue with my buttons and dropdown menu. What happens is lets say user chooses option type "ABCDE" in first dropdown menu and then second dropdown menu chooses the value "4" for the number of answers and then clicks on the buttons "A","B","C" and "E", well if the user then decides to change the option type to "ABC", the buttons "A", "B" and "C" are still selected from the last time they have been selected.

What I want is that if the Option Type (OptionDropId) changes, then buttons selected is refreshed so no buttons are selected from the last time they have been selected.

This did used to work but when I included my change() event handler in my code which I need, the buttons do not refresh whenever a new dropdown option (OptionDropId) is selected. So I think the edit of the code may need to happen in the code below:

Code:
$(document).ready(function ()
{
var OptDrop = new Array();
OptDrop.abc = ["",1,2];

[Code]...

My code is in JSfiddle, (the second dropdown menu and buttons may not appear in JSFiddle but the code does work properly, I feel it is better displaying code in JSfiddle then in my questions as it will take up a lot of space. If you want to see working version then post code in your web document and it should work).

Read Doc To Get <option>s For Select Drop-down?

Mar 22, 2010

I want to use a <select> drop-down in a form to let my user select a date from a list. The problem is how to easily update the list.

Easiest would be to have a list of dates in a separate file, and have code that would read the dates and write them into the <option> statements of the <select> control. Then when the page with the <select> control opens, the code will open the other file, get the dates, and update the <option>s. And all I have to do is periodically FTP a new date file.

I'm stuck in Visual Basic and FileSystemObject, where I can open a file, read line by line into an array, concatenate a string, and write it into a doc. I can't seem to find similar methods in JavaScript - no duh, because this isn't VB!

So _is_ there a way to do this? Maybe a certain way to create the date file so the code can easily find the values? (Like putting the dates into a table with each <TD> having a unique ID?) And assuming I manage to get the dates, I need to write them into the source HTML, vice in the document body.

What objects, methods, properties do I look at? Are there any samples floating around out there?

Create A Drop-down Menu With Rather Long Option Titles?

Aug 5, 2009

I'm looking to create a drop-down menu with rather long option titles. The problem is that I want to restrict the boxes size otherwise the size changes to the length of the longest entry. When I use the length attribute, it forces the drop-down to be a certain length, but it also cuts the sentences in half when I drop the options due to the option box being the same length as what I set the drop-down menu's length to be.

Is there any way to set the drop-down menu's size, but have a different size on the option menu that is displayed when the drop-down menu is clicked?

Help apprecitate,. I currently have it commented out just to show the

function onCarrierSelect() {
var frm = document.carrRequestForm.carrierList.selectedIndex ;
var selectCar =
document.carrRequestForm.carrierList.options[frm].text;
var varEl = "<%=varElementName%>";
if (window.opener && !window.opener.close)

Select An Option From A Menu List?

Aug 23, 2010

I'm having trouble making JavaScript select an option from a list menu. I created the list menu using an array with php. I.E.

HTML Code:
<? $states = array('NY', 'NJ', 'CA');
for($s = 0; $s <= 2; $s++){?>
<option><? echo $states[$s] ?> </option>
<? } ?>

So then I have some JavaScript code, that automatically determines which state you're in. My question is, how do you get JavaScript to select the state the code has determined you're in? I tried these, to no avail.

document.form.states.value = currentstate;
document.form.states.select= currentstate;

currentstate being the variable that determines the current state you're in.

Show And Hide On Select Option Dropdown Menu

Jan 30, 2009

Basically, I have written an application that runs a report based on a certain amount of parameters, one of which being date. So, the date selection is a <select></select> dropdown menu and it has the usual in it, today, yesterday, this week, last week etc. The problem is I need it to have a 'Custom' selection to run reports for custom dates. When 'Custom' is selected in the dropdown menu, two text boxes appear underneath with YYYY-MM-DD watermarked in them. I have assembled enough code from around the web to get this to work and it works fine, the problem I have is that when the user clicks off the 'Custom' option and on to a different one, I need the textboxes to disappear again.

Here is the code I am using:
<script type="text/javascript">
function showhide(divid){
thediv = document.getElementById(divid);
if(thediv.style.display== 'none' ){
thediv.style.display='block'
}else{
thediv.style.display='none'
}} .....

Drop Down Menu - Only Select Each Value Once?

Jan 6, 2011

Tried searching for this, but can only find js events to remove an item completely from a drop down box once it's been selected. Example: On a page with many fields for entering different DNS server addresses, I have a drop down menu next to each field, and the values are "Main DNS", "Alternative DNS", "Third DNS", "Least Favorable". Since there can only be one main DNS server chosen, I'd like to know if it's possible for js to prevent that choice from being used more than once. Say there is a Main DNS selected, but the user changes his/her mind and wants a different one. When he selects a second "Main DNS", the first item will return to the drop-down default choice (most likely blank). As stated before, I'll gladly accept a link describing this (or even the proper term to use for a google search).
