Parsing Returned Values From A Multiple Selection List In A Form
Jan 5, 2007
I have a form that I am using to generate an email with several user
selected fields being part of it. As part of this form, I have a select
box which allows the user to select which email addresses it should be
sent to. The box works great except that the CGI script I'm sending the
values to can only parse a single line for each field in the form. The
issue comes into play when someone selects more than one value in the
select box, the output of the select box seems to separate each value
on a separate line using a line feed (or carriage return, I can't
tell). The format that the CGI script needs is for a single line with
each of these values separated by a comma. I'm confident that a
javascript can do this fairly easily, but unfortunately, I am not very
well versed in javascript. I've found a few code snippets on the web
that I've mangled together, but since I don't really know what I'm
doing, it isn't working out so good. I've included what I have in the
form right now below (note that I've removed all of the other form data
but the select box code to save space). Code:
What I want to do is to pass the selected values from "Selection page" to its parent window. Right now, I pass the values by doing this (in JavaScript):
I'm assuming if mulitple selections are made (lets say One and Two are selected), document.theForm.numbers.value will be a collection of the selected option values. Is this correct?
If so, how can I retrieve each option value when coding parent window?
I've got a form which I want to validate using jQuery to ensure that the same value for a dropdown has not been entered more than once. The form consists of the following:
Through an AJAX implementation, I am receiving a SQL Query result that has:An object's attribute delimited by a comma.An entire object (database row) delimited by a colon.This is an example response to make it more clear for you.
What I am trying to achieve is placing all of this data into an array. I've set up a little test bed to try and get this to work; this is all I have so far:
var testString = "1,Jeremy,130,80;2,Lauren,370,300;3,Jeancarlos,200,200;4,Luke,330,70;5,Bloom,392,108"; var testArray = new Array(); testArray = testString.split(";");[code]....
get a multi-dimensional array that has information for each person. Example:
FinalArray[0][0] = 1 FinalArray[0][1] = Jeremy FinalArray[0][2] = 130
I am trying out $.ajax instead of getJSON for debugging purposes. Because getJSON did not report an error in IE (6,7 or 8) and I am trying to figure out why a jQuery plug-in is not painting my returned images to the screen in IE but is in other browsers. So I tried this. Interestingly enough, it hits the error event in IE but not firefox, safari and the rest and I don't know why (this code works great and renders my data just fine in FireFox and the rest). I know my returned json is valid:
I don't know what else to do to troubleshoot why IE is having so much trouble with the returned JSON or just executing the function(data) using either getJSON OR this. I have set the headers not the cache also in the response. IE refuses to enter my function(data) on the response.
Same result. Firefox and the rest had no issue. IE still exited the $.ajax and my error method kicked in. No rhyme or reason whatsoever and I tried the IE Dev tools... nothing. About the only thing I get is this: Line: 163 Error: System error: -1072896658.Line 163 which is simply the line: function() { alert("An error has occurred. try again."); This has got to be the most f*d up situation I've been in and I need to get this working! I just cannot understand why IE can't parse a getJSON or $.ajax response, that is impossible or else there would be a huge meltdown with jQuery.
I have created this form. I would like to use javascript to mail the form to the selected email from the selection list when the submit button is pressed.
<form name="Contact Us" id="contact" action="mailto:" method="post"> <fieldset id="selection"> Who would you like to email: <select> <option value="email1" >email1</option> <option value="email2" >email2</option> <option value="email3">email3</option> </select> <fieldset id="Name" > Name <input type="text" id="firstname" name="firstname"> E-mail <input type="text" id="email" name="email"> </fieldset> <fieldset id="question"> Comments and Questions <input type="text" id="comment" name="comment" style="width: 500; height: 300"> </fieldset> </form>
I have a form with a drop down list box, few textboxes with labels and submit button. depending upon my selection I should be able to show hide textbox; assume items, 1,3,5 in the selection box shows the items other than the listbox and 2,4,6 items in the selction box if selected hides the labels and textboxes. but in all the case submit button should be present.
rm validation! I want this to be validated upon selection of the drop down list (not when it comes to submit button)I have 2 drop down lists:Starting date (June 5th, 6th 7th)Ending date (June 5th, 6th 7th)I want to write a script that would NOT ALLOW one to choose:- Starting date June 6th and Ending date June 5th- Starting date June 7th and Ending date June 6th- Starting date June 7th and Ending date June 5th
I'm doing kind of a form that at the end you can pay thru paypal. I have like a table made of anchor tags <a> and each one is styled as a table cell. What I need to do is to have the ability of multiple select this links. It would be: the user select one or more links and then a variable would carry these links name so he could pay with paypal.
I have a requirement where I have to check for condition if "any" element is selected with other items. Below is piece of code I wrote, which does not work perfectly.
if ($('#s2s_from option:selected').length > 1 && $('#s2s_from option[value=any]').length > 0) { Ext.MessageBox.alert("Error", "You cannot select Any with other items."); return false;
When I use the ajax function to grab the remote content of some page, I would like to then apply jQuery selectors to that data. Does anyone know how this can be done? Let's say that I just grabbed the content from an html page. I would then like to be able to use a standard: $("#someID").val() to get the content of that page element.
i am writing a script that will update a dropdown list based on the selection of a previous list. the script is run by a PHP script, so instead of posting the PHP, i will post an example client-side script. the hierachy is: category, sub category, brand (but sometimes there exists no sub category and the PHP script queries and adds brands instead) everything works correctly, except for one major issue: you can not change the selection of the third (brand) box this could be an easy fix for some coders, but i am not experienced in javascript and could really use some help. here is an example script, sorry it is so long
I have been struggling on a bit of code for a while now. I need to populate a second drop down list (Region) based upon the selection of the first (County).I have found a piece of code that works on its own and have adapted to suit my needs - see below. However, when I drop it into my main page the javascript is not working. It's because of the formObject but I just don't know enough to resolve this! Furthermore, I need the textboxes the user has already completed in the form to retain their value once the javascript kicks in as the completed form will submit to a database.This piece of code is working well . . . .
<?php
$link = mysql_connect('myhost', 'myusername', 'mypassword') or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); mysql_select_db('mydatabase') or die('Could not select database');[code]......
I have 3 ASP list boxes. I would like to populate the second list box based on the selection in the first list box and based on the selection in the second list box, populate the third. I would like to do this using AJAX. How can I do it? Can someone please give me the code snippet as I am a complete noob when it comes to AJAX and I kinda am running outta time to finish implementing it. Additionally, should I use ASP boxes or HTML <select> tag?
I have the following function that selects all of the values in a multiple select box. Can anybody help me extend it to do this for more than one select box?
function selectAll() { List = document.forms[0].categories; if (List.length && List.options[0].value == 'temp') return; for (i=0;i<List.length;i++){ List.options[i].selected = true; } closeMe() }
I've set a cookie with a name-value pair of warning=none/block. I'm then aiming to use this to set the CSS when the page loads, for a particular element. The cookie sets okay, but I don't know how to read it into the CSS. This is the HTML:
I have a form where I ask my users for a comma seperated web site list. I want to make sure this list only contains the host names of URLs without any white spaces
Original list: [url], [url], [url],[url]
Edited list: [url],[url],[url],[url]
Currently I have the following to get the comma separated list
var list = document.getElementById( "list" ).value ;
I have multiple <select></select> elements in a php page. After an option is chosen from the first drop down <select></select> element, options of the 2nd drop down <select></select> element will show up. Selection of an option from the 2nd drop down list will get the options in the 3rd dropdown list show up. Thus input from the 3rd drop down list will show up the options in the 4th drop down list. Such is the case for the 4th, 5th ,... drop down list.
Each time depending on the inputs from the previous drop down lists , the values for the immediately later drop down list will be retrieved from the database. i.e options for the nth drop down list to be retrieved from the database will depend on the selected the values from 1st, 2nd, 3rd, .....(n-1)th drop down list.
Now what I do is: -use this function to create xml doc from string
[Code]...
the stirng shown at the beggining is passed to "response" (var response= xmlhttp.responseText;). Now for some reason all 3 values displayed are null... I am trying to figure why for last 2hrs but i cnt see any reason why they shouldnt be the actual values of nodes in the string...
What I have is a normal ASP web page wih javascript. The javascript needs to call a payment gateway, but the only way to get to it is https://paymentgateway/external.pl with parameters.
What is returned is a string containing several lines of information. This information I need to formulate into my own page..
At present, I use document.location = https..... but of course this displays the called page (above) in the browser screen with the results.
Im sure this can be done, but how can I call this gateway webpage without showing it (so the user would just see my please wait page) and retrieve the data when it comes back (within 6 secs).
Whenever i try to use this function it gives me either -NaN, or undefinedwhat am i doing wrong? The objective of these functions are to change x and y coordinates into SAN (Simplified Algebraic Notation) for use in the Chess Game's DataFile (PGN file format).Live Running DHTML App:http://daomingjin.googlepages.com/ChessManager.html140kb Zip-Archive:http://daomingjin.googlepages.com/ScoreMatev1.ziphere are the functions in Question:
function XCoordToSAN(x) { // Convert the x coordinate of the piece to partial SAN (Simplified Algebraic Notation)
I have a drop down selection box with items in it. I need to be able to pass the selected item through using an onclick event for the "Submit" button. Is this possible?
I have a Javascript that is calling a div to popup. This div is the drop down selector. I want the user to click a button to make the drop down appear, then they must select an item in the list and then hit submit. The submit button being clicked I need to bring in the selected value from the drop down and use it in the script that originally told the div to pop up (this is the first button that the user clicks, it actually runs the script which passes 2 variables, and is basically waiting on the drop down selection to save into a 3rd variable, which will then call a PageMethod).
I have
function AddTemplateToUUT(uutnumber,testerid){ var templatename=SelectTemplateToAssign(); PageMethods.AddTemplateToUUT(testerid,uutnumber,templatename,CallbackDiv,CallbackErrorAlert,'divchecklistarea'); ShowSelection('divtemplateblock','hide');
