what would be the best way to have a hidden array of possible text directed at a textarea and then if something is not within that array "onfocus", a certain select option is chosen within that form?
I'm having some trouble with what seems to be a fairly simple issue: I have a <select> field with a few options inside of it. The idea is that a user can select an option in this dropdown and, dependent on what they choose, the output in another div with change.
The form: <form class="formStyle"> <fieldset> <label for="soFormStyle">style:</label> <select name="soFormStyle" id="soFormStyle">
[Code]....
So, this JQuery only works if the option is preselected (if I select and reload the page). I thought I was on the right track, but I just can't get it working as I intended. Again, the idea is that a user selects "Page Curl" or "Logo", and the image in the preview pane changes according to their selection.
i trying to select a <select> option programatically. i can see in firebug that the value of the select tag change but not it's text. how could i select a option by displaying it's text?
i try $(mySelect).val(optionValue); and $(mySelect).find('option[value='1']").attr("selected","selected");
As far as my understanding of HTML DOM aka DHTML goes, is that if the DOM structure of HTML document is changed programmatically using JavaScript in the browser, it immediately gets reflected in the page's view. For example, if following code is executed on say a click of a button
var f = document.getElementById("f1"); // f1 is id of a form var i = document.createElement("input"); i.setAttribute("type", "text"); f.appendChild(i);
the page immediately shows the new textbox under that form. But in the following code, this doesnt happen.
<form id="f1"> <select id="cars"> <option value="volvo">Volvo</option> <option value="saab">Saab</option> <option value="fiat">Fiat</option> <option value="audi">Audi</option> </select> </form> <script> // Gets executed say on click of some button var c = document.getElementById("cars"); c.options[1].setAttribute("selected", "selected"); // doesnt work c.options[1].selected = true; // works </script>
the option in combo box remains same. I checked in Firebug that the attribute is added properly. Using the selected attribute works. Why so?
I don't know if this is something you could do without JavaScript, but anyways... I want to make a drop down menu that changes a form based on the option, like if I chose Option1, it would show Form1 and so on.
I have a select dropdown with several options. The user selects an option and fills out the following few fields. If the user then changes his mind and changes the option in the dropdown, I want all the fields - or just the ones already filled out - to be cleared.
Note: reset() of the form is not an option as there are other things going on (hide/display of fields based on the dropdown option selected).
I'm assuming it's possible to change the selected option of SELECT box with JavaScript based on the value and not index, but my searches have turned up nothing that seem to address this. It may be my searching terms, but if someone knows how to do this, could you post some code samples?
I know this will have been covered but search isn't working for me at the moment. Easy one for people who know JS anyway, I'm sure: I have a SELECT box that precedes a text input, however, when a particular option is selected (the value of which is "BETWEEN") I need a hidden SPAN to become visible. It is hidden as default with "visibility:hidden;" so I need to just change it to "visibility:visible;" if memory serves. Anyway, likewise, if it is already visible, I need it to be both hidden and have the input in that span have an empty value. Any tips? I need to apply this to many rows in a table, so a function that I can call with the span and input IDs would be best I reckon.
This is to update stock status automatically on a formPlease advisow this is done:When user enters value greater than 0 inside text input field.Status dropdown list selects option: In StockIf value inside text input field is <= 0.
I've worked out how to get the value from a select option tag, but can't work out how to get the text inside the option tags. Here is the code I am using to get the value attribute from the option tag..
I have written code for select options one. In that option one of the option is to select others. When i select others automatically the cursor should goto others text area box.
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head>
The function "addPhrase" is where i know i'm having the difficulty - so for now I've forced it to show one value only:
'// The form name is AMANDA
function addPhrase() { document.AMANDA.js_strMemberMail.value = document.AMANDA.js_strPreDefCatList.value + ", " ;}
What I think I want is to be able to build up a string of values and write them out to the textarea (hence the ", "). With the option that more can be added, without deleting what's currently there.
I have developed my own tools for serializing form data for asynchronous calls to the server (AJAX). I have consider many times that it would be useful that when a select element has both text and option values to send both values to the server. I have thought about a couple of different ways of doing this. But first let me give an example so that there is less chance of misunderstanding.Suppose I have a drop-down list that is a select element with an option list wherein each member of the option list has both a value and a text string. as in Code:
I have been studying php for a while now and i know that, i am now starting php oop and that going well but i have never done anything like this. Anway i am creating a booking system which at the end of the process asks who supplied your voucher which they then select a supplier.
The issue i have is my client wants it so if groupon is selected then an input text box should appear so that the user can input a security code from groupon.
I'm using the following code to remove an option from a select control based on a selection in a different select control and the option text in the select option that is being removed. The code works as I want it to, but I would prefer to use the option value for identifying the option to remove instead of using the option text. I've tried several different ways to do this, but can not find the proper syntax.
I'm quite new to jQuery but love learning new tricks. I have a search box with a labelOver applied for the hint text and a select dropdown with 4 options. I would like to change the hint text depending on which option is selected.
Eg if the user selects "People" the hint text will read "eg. John Smith", if they pick "Year" the hint text will read "1985".
According to [URL] intended way for jQuery to change dynamically the selected option of a dropdown select control isassigningthe desired text instead of the value. I found this way veryinconvenient (data structures usually deal with value codes, not value descriptions) and it seems to work only sometimes.
Trying different options I came out with this approach that seems to do the job so far:
function setSelect(pID,pSelectedValue) { $('#'+pID + ' option:selected').removeAttr('selected');
I have a form that uses jeditable to edit-in-place several fields and select boxes. Everything is working great. Now I need to a way to add a new option to the select list. What I would like is the user select "Add New..." from the select list that would pop-up a dialog window where several fields are filled in. When the form is saved the select field is updated with the new ID and description. I use Facebox for pop-up windows to display notes when the user clicks on a topic. I know Facebox can be used to display a form. It would be ideal to use this ability when creating a new option for the select box.
I've seen a variety of implementations around that enable selecting all or no checkboxes by using a checkbox to toggle that choice. However, I'm trying to find a way like this: I have two text links on my page: Select All, and Select None. How can I get those links to call a jquery function to select all or select no checkboxes in my form? As a little food for thought:
<head> $(function() { //function for selecting all or none...is there a way to make a single function that passes in a parameter to differentiate between selecting all or selecting none, or do I need a separate function for both?[code]....
I'm using Prototype and scriptaculous either, but here it is:
I have two select areas and scripts to transfer items between the two. Everything works great in FF, but in IE when an option gets removed it removes the entire select area. Has anyone ever seen something like this before?
I'm iterating through each option of a select, and I need to selectively remove some options based on their value. Here's a sample option (I don't control the markup)
<OPTION selected value=7>Compliance</OPTION> $("select[title='MyTitle'] > OPTION").filter(function(){ var v=$(this).attr['value']; //other stuff
I've build a module in jQuery that converts a normal select box to a nice stylized list.When I click the anchor tag, it drops down the list with some JS. What I can't figure out is how to implement the keyboard. For example, if I wanted to drop down in the list, I could start typing.Could someone lead me in the right direction?I can't quite figure out what to google for.
