I have this code that unhides a select box when the user clicks in the parent li containing it. Now I just want the .focus to seem more natural to the user as if they had just clicked in a normal select. As it stands, you have to click on it again to make it active (view the selections..)
$(function(){
$('li.col1').click(function(){
$(this).find('select').removeClass('nodisplay').focus();
});
});
I have a ColdFusion page with a select drop down list. On submit, I'm storing the value in a cfparam and trying to use jQuery to auto select that particular option. Currently I'm using :contains but this is unacceptable because it selects the last item that contains the cfparam.
$("option:contains('<cfoutput>#form.company_type#</cfoutput>')").attr('selected', 'selected');
Is there something like this:
$("option").equals('<cfoutput>#form.company_type#</cfoutput>')").attr('selected', 'selected');

I willconsider other alternatives to accomplishing my objective.
Is it possible to extend jquery to include a function that will select elements with focus. In the same way :input selects all inputs :selected selects all selected etc but instead :focus or focused: which would select the focused element. I have a table which includes an input field on each row (like a simple datagrid). Id like to be able to hit an access key and delete the row (input textbox) which has focus ie the row which the cursor has been placed in.
I found this but it selects the first input textbox only for some reason?... and not the one with focus.
$.extend($.expr[':'], {
focused: function(elem) { return elem.hasFocus; }
});
var id = $('input :focused').val();
console.log(id);
In a nutshell: I have an html code that looks like this:
<span class="someClass">
Beginning of a text
<label>[code]....
What I wanted to do is to transform it into this: Beginning of the text option 1 end of the text.where option 1 would, onclick, change into option 2 (checking the appropriate radio button at the same time)
The result of clicking option 1 would then be:Beginning of the text option 2 end of the text and you would know that the radio button for option 2 is checked.
This way, by clicking on option 1 or option 2, you get to see the change in the "sentence".b.t.w the reason I wanted to have radio buttons in the first place was, firstly,to pass the chosen information in the form, but also to avoid loosing functionnality when javascript is disabled.The reason why I chose to wrap the labels around the radio buttons is so that clicking the text would check the appropriate radio button..( I could use the for attribute, but thought it would be easier this way as far as scripting goes)here is what I did (in english, and in javascript[code].....
All of this works wonderfully, except in opera. I think it is because opera does what I say, but then proceeds to checking the radio button associated to the clicked label (as a label should do). In other words, the script is useless since opera does the label effect after my script has taken place, cancelling my script's effect.The reason I think this, is because I tried putting an alert where the red comment is and that solved the problem. I'm guessing that the alert prevented me from completing my click action (because the alert box has and keeps the focus), thus preventing the natural label activity.
I know there are some issues trying to use .focus() and .select() within another.eventhandler (for the same object) in firefox. What I don't know is, howto workaround?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just started using the grate validate plugin today and I can't really find an example of what I'm trying to customize...
Basically, I think it's confusing for a select element to change on focus instead of on change, meaning: the user forgets to select an option, the drop down is highlighted with some CSS, so use selects an option, but CSS error styling doesn't go away until the user clicks somewhere else on the page... A minor gripe, but I'm a big believer of the Steve Krug "don't make me think" school ;)
I'm still not quite clearly on how to implement own customizations of this plugin even after going through the docs...
Trying to get the height of an element whose height is specified in the CSS.

disable select until user puts mark in check box. Then enable select.I have two select box's on a page. The first asks what product, the second is based on the first and presents a list of pdf's according to which product the user selected. (yes, multi dimensional)What I have works fine, but now i need to make the user put a check mark in a check box before the First SELECT box becomes enabled/available.So basically, when they agree, they can get the download.Here are my select boxes.
HTML Code:
<form>
<select name="category" style="width:180px"></select>
<select name="site" style="width:180px" onchange="openLink(this.value)"></select>[code]....
(ignore the The 'open' button. It's there in case the default option is what the user wants, so they don't have reselect via the select box.)
1. How do I disable the select boxes by default on page load?
2. How do I detect that the user has put a tick in and the enable the disabled Select box?
I have an application where users select a number from 10 dropdown boxes in table rows. The problem is if they choose the last value the cursor drops down to several rows below. What I really want to do is to focus the row and move the cursor back to the row the user just selected. I tried stuff like:
$.scrollTo('table tr.debit');
$('table tr.debit').focus();
$('table tr.debit').select();
But the cursor doesn't jump back to the row and the row doesnt highlight (debit and credit classes highlight the row on hover).

I am new to jquery and I need to make a form that allows a user to select a state and a city that they go to school in. I am using the cascade juqery plug-in [url].
Which I think is a great plugin) The problem is there is a lot of data and it takes a long time for it all to load (some 28,000 records).
What I want to do is split it up into different files and then load only the file that contains the data for that start/region.
A sample of my code is blow:
My html:
I have a databound control that I'm trying to add a menu that will show up only when the user rolls over the area. I am trying to append the rollover menu to each data container. I am able to append the menu, but the problem is that I cannot select the menu after it has been created to add say a click function to it. Basically, I am trying to append a menu that only shows up when a user rolls over the container (such as a <div>) and I would like to add some function to the newly created element. The problem is that I cannot assign the rollover menu an ID because although I could select them at that point it will assign the function to all of the ID's which won't really do me any good.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am not trying to start a flame war again over the JavaScript frameworks. Instead I want to focus on the JavaScript "User Interface" aspect. I refer to those fanciful widgets and effects we see increasingly appearing all over the browsers nowadays. They are usually built using HTML, JavaScript and CSS. I also notice a lot of developers like to build their own widgets and effects based on the questions asked in this forum. I am more of a server side developer so I am more curious how I can get a fanciful widget/effect in real quick time and viola jQuery UI came to my rescue today.
Then I probe deeper and it seems for the UI portion, jQuery and YUI stand out. Prototype UI is still in infant stage from what I see. Both jQuery plug-in and YUI gallery provide lots of ready made widgets to be used readily. Then come my questions below. 1. YUI framework codes are "wordy". It is cleaner and clearer of cuz but from what I know, JavaScript are downloaded onto the user browser whenever user surf to a page with JavaScript enabled correct?
Hence wordy code pay a price isn't it ? The total number of bytes that need to be download to the browser has an impact. In this aspect jQuery is more compact and in theory the final code that uses jQuery will be smaller correct ?
2. jQuery has a weakness. It is preoccupied with DOM and mainly those UI related JS code. When there is a need to have non-UI JavaScript OOP code, it does not seem to shine so well.
So my decision is simple. I don't need a lot of non-UI JavaScript OOP code, I only want ready-built UI JavaScript code and jQuery serve me very well.
I welcome other developers comments. PS Btw jQuery and YUI are free anyway and unless there are no widgets out there to serve my needs, I won't venture to re-invent the wheel again. There sure are lot's of experienced UI JavaScript developers in those communities!

I've been applying a javascript based, user switch button to a site from this article: [URL] On [URL] (right top menu option).So far, it is working but the user selection is not persistent from page to page. I think it may have something to do with the onload and unload
actions in the attached js file: [URL]
}
window.onload = function(e) {
var cookie = readCookie("style");

I was wondering if these functions have to be in the header of every page instead of in a linked file, or if there is something else I'm missing...
