Selecting A Dropdown Option By Its Text?

Jul 15, 2009

So I've got some simple javascript functions to set dropdown selections based on index. But I've also have a field that needs to be selected based on its text (possibly value, but text would be better).The current code is really just based around this line:document.getElementById("Option3")[myOption1].selected = true;and what I'm looking for is:document.getElementById("Option3").getIndexByText("TheSelectorText").selected = true;Is there a built in function for this? Has anyone implemented it? I searched google and there didn't seem to be any standout answers.

Selecting Option Changes Availability Or Other Option In For

Mar 5, 2009

I wish to have options show or not show depending on the options selected previously. I think I would be right in saying this needs to be client side and think it must be javascript that is needed here. Either way what method should I use and what is the coding needed to do this.

Selecting An Option Line Within A Select.

Sep 14, 2005

Is there a method I can call to click on a particular <option> within a <Select>?
I've got a select with several <option> lines,and I have the ID of the one I want to click, but have tried .click() but that doesn't work. It always picks the top of the list, and reading up on it, it sounds like the click isn't what I'd choose. Is there another?

JQuery :: Option Creation And Selecting Not Working In IEx?

May 28, 2010

Can someone tell me why this snippet of code does not work in any version of IE yet works fine in Firefox and Chrome?

<?
require_once("db/db.class.php");
$db = new db_class;
$classId = intval($_GET['classId']);
$selSub = intval($_GET['selsubclassId']);
$d = $db->connect();

[Code]...

It should be creating a set of options for a the select statement with id "sub_class", which it does.However, it should also be setting the selected option to the value I pass as 'selsubclassId', which only seems to work in FF or Chrome. In IE, the selected item always defaults to the first option.It's pretty basic PHP and jQuery. Is IE that stupid? Do we have a workaround?

Selecting All Options In A Dropdown

Jul 23, 2005

I have a drop down with alot of options say about 6000 cities and
districts. I need to select all options if user selects "All checkbox".
I use "on change" and a for loop to do this, but it takes a lot of time
to select all these options. Is there any faster way to select all
these options?

function selectAll()
{
var element = document.getElementById("location");
var length = document.getElementById("location").length;

for(var i=0; i<length; i++)
{
element.options[i].selected=true;
}
}

JQuery :: Selecting Active Drop-down Option By Category?

Jan 4, 2012

I'm trying to set an option of a drop-down as active, regarding the category. I added the category name for this to the body class="category-XXXX-XXXX". What I need is something like an array to say:

if == category-AAAA-AAAA then option value=1 is selected
if == category-BBBB-BBBB then option value=2 is selected
if == category-CCCC-CCCC then option value=3 is selected

and so on. Unfortunately, I'm getting totally confused where to actually start and how to do that. I know, it is for sure out a line to ask for a finished script, but I'm sure someone can give me a hint, on how to do that.

JQuery :: Selecting A Dropdown Item From MySQL?

Dec 30, 2011

This one should be easy. In fact, it was working for a long time as far as I know. Then I upgraded from jQuery 1.4.4 to 1.7.1 and a few things stopped working. (This is according to my client; it's possible it's been broken for a long time.)

So a customer logs in and sees his/her registration information. Name, address, phone number, etc... It gets this information from a MySQL database. For the customer's home address, there's a dropdown for the state (MA, NH, etc...) Rather than displaying the default specified in the HTML code, I have a bit of jQuery code that is supposed to change the dropdown selection to the user's home state as stored in the MySQL database.

Unfortunately, nothing happens. It rather than changing to the user's home state, it just displays the default state (AL, the first alphabetically).

[Code]..

I verified that $row['state'] contains valid data by outputting it as HTML on the page (my test data outputs "MA"). And I'm reasonably sure that this used to work in the past.

Submitting Two FORM Variables By Only Selecting One Dropdown?

Feb 14, 2010

I'm looking for a JavaScript solution that will allow me to submit two separate hidden variables by only selecting one dropdown field from a HTML submission form.

Each option of the dropdown field contains two data values: quantity and price. I'm selling some products online and I'd like to have different prices based on the quantity of the product order.

Below is the code that I was thinking, though it's not functional... just wanted you to understand what I'm looking for!

Basically the user selects the desired quantity, and after his submission the form will pass me the quantity and the price from the dropdown field in TWO SEPARATE hidden variables.

I have several such products on a single HTML page, so the solution should be capable of working with multiple product forms on the same page. It's also important that I have only ONE dropdown field, plus the submission button. Nothing else really.

JQuery :: Show An Alert (or Hidden Div) When Selecting A Particular Option In A Select Element?

Jan 26, 2010

I'd like to have an alert of some type, either standard alert or a hidden div, show up when a user selects an option in a select element.

For instance, if a select element has 5 options in it and the user chooses the first one, they would get an alert that says "You have chosen the first option". I'm confident this is something that can be done with a few lines of code, but I'm not sure where to begin.

Here's the logic - I'm just not sure how to write the syntax...

If ("#select option") changes and ("#select option:eq(0):selected"), fade in the div ("alert").
