I created a dropdown menu using jquery. So when I hover over a button it slides down the menu. Now if I move the mouse out of the menu and bring it back in before it slides up(menu has a lot of items so there is enough time to bring the mouse back in on the menu)over the dropdown menu it starts a chain of slideDown() and slideUp() functions and it does not stop till I move the mouse of the menu or back on the button. Below is my jquery code:

Scenario: you enter "foo bar" into a text field... Is it possible
through javascript to select/highlight just "foo"?
formObject.select()
selects all. I need to select only part of the string.
When the page loads there will already be a drop-down on the page, here's an example of the drop down.
<select id="dropdown">
<option value="2121S">Option text</option>
<option value="2122S">Option text</option>
<option value="2123S">Option text</option>
<option value="2121A">Option text</option>
<option value="2122A">Option text</option>
<option value="2121K">Option text</option>
</select>
On page load it will evaluate this drop-down and repopulate it determined on their values. If there is an S in any of the values the drop-down will generate an option for 'S' like so.. <option value="s">S Option Text</option> And for the first code example in this post - the Javascript would be able to repopulate the drop-down with the following:

I'm having some problems understanding the append() function. What I'd like to do is select an element using it's ID and add a row to the table with a HTML form element.

If I had a table like this...

I have my website getting a value as a result of an ajax call. After that, I would like to insert that result (a string) into a tag. However, I would like to insert that result in a way that (1) it must have opacity = 0, then (2) it will slideDown() so the whole content list being pushed down using animation, and finally (3) change opacity = 1. Imagine this is just like a Facebook message list insert process The way I am planning to do this is to return the result string from ajax to opacity=0 first. However, I don't know how to use jQuery to select a tag from within a string. I know jQuery only select from the DOM. So how to do this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to add a class to a <li> where the href within it contains a string. I can apply the class to the anchor without a problem, but I can't seem to select the parent. Is an anchor a child? <li><a href="random.xls">Random Stuff</a></li>
In this case, since the href contains .xls, I'd like to be able to add a class to it. I've tried a variety of things, most recently this, but no luck: $('li has(a[href$=".xls"])').addClass('excel');
How do I retrieve the currently selected option string in a select box instead of the value?

I am doing some maintenance work on a classic asp web page that displays product information. I am changing how the page looks up the available quantities for the various sizes. The old method used several SQL queries to determine the number of sizes and available quantities and then used those results to build a table on the fly on the page.
My modification consists of a web service that consolidates product size availability from three different sources and delivers the data via an XML formatted return. I have also added DOM tags in the table that is built on the fly that identify each entry with the product id and size. So, for a product that has an ID of "P12345" and a size of "XXL," that corresponding cell in the table gets an id tag of "P12345_XXL."
My jQuery update statements worked just fine using this approach until the sizes included decimal numbers. My example for this is shoe sizes. A size represented by an integer (6,7,8,...,15,16,17, etc.) works fine. A half-size represented by a decimal (6.5, 7.5, 8.5,...) does not. Even though the period is contained within a string value, jQuery doesn't seem to be able to match the value with an id tag - and yes, I have verified that the two (the string that I am giving to the jquery select and the actual tag) do indeed match.
So far, the only work-around that I have come up with is to multiply numeric sizes by 10 and parse as integer values. Is this a "known issue" and is there a more elegant solution topursue?

I am building a navigation which animates width on mouseover and revert it on mouseleave. That navigation also supports keypress/keydown actions, so it behaves like you hover with the mouse and additionally opens the submenu too. My problem is, when using the keydown (C) function, the menu opens up perfectly but when I mouseover then, it fires the 1. function and behaves like it should, it closes. I tried to stop that when just using keydown, but somehow I am stuck with it. Here comes the code:
