Select Menu Option <create On The Fly>

Jul 17, 2006

I am still having trouble creating the Select Menu option. I got parts
of the correct syntax but it is still not creating the selected carrier
as an option in the parent page.

Help apprecitate,. I currently have it commented out just to show the
line to you better:

function onCarrierSelect() {
var frm = document.carrRequestForm.carrierList.selectedIndex ;
var selectCar =
document.carrRequestForm.carrierList.options[frm].text;
var varEl = "<%=varElementName%>";
if (window.opener && !window.opener.close)
var oOption = window.opener.document.createElement("OPTION");
//window.opener.form.[varEl].options.add(oOption);
oOption.innerText =selectCar;
oOption.value =selectCar;
window.close();
}

Select An Option From A Menu List?

Aug 23, 2010

I'm having trouble making JavaScript select an option from a list menu. I created the list menu using an array with php. I.E.

HTML Code:
<? $states = array('NY', 'NJ', 'CA');
for($s = 0; $s <= 2; $s++){?>
<option><? echo $states[$s] ?> </option>
<? } ?>

So then I have some JavaScript code, that automatically determines which state you're in. My question is, how do you get JavaScript to select the state the code has determined you're in? I tried these, to no avail.

document.form.states.value = currentstate;
document.form.states.select= currentstate;

currentstate being the variable that determines the current state you're in.

Show And Hide On Select Option Dropdown Menu

Jan 30, 2009

Basically, I have written an application that runs a report based on a certain amount of parameters, one of which being date. So, the date selection is a <select></select> dropdown menu and it has the usual in it, today, yesterday, this week, last week etc. The problem is I need it to have a 'Custom' selection to run reports for custom dates. When 'Custom' is selected in the dropdown menu, two text boxes appear underneath with YYYY-MM-DD watermarked in them. I have assembled enough code from around the web to get this to work and it works fine, the problem I have is that when the user clicks off the 'Custom' option and on to a different one, I need the textboxes to disappear again.

Here is the code I am using:
<script type="text/javascript">
function showhide(divid){
thediv = document.getElementById(divid);
if(thediv.style.display== 'none' ){
thediv.style.display='block'
}else{
thediv.style.display='none'
}} .....

Expand A Menu Option And Collapse It When Another Menu Option Is Clicked?

Sep 24, 2010

I am currently looking to create a JavaScript menu for a website I am working on. It currently expands and collapses on click. The code in question is pasted below:-

menu_status = new Array();
function showHide(theid){
if (document.getElementById) {
var switch_id = document.getElementById(theid);

[Code]....

As you can see, it basically shows and hides the menu (when clicked). I want it to open the menu when clicked and close when another menu is opened. I have looked and have not been able to find a solution into it. Ideally I donot want it to be a long piece of code as I do have a working menu but with many more lines of JavaScript than the one I have posted.

JQuery :: Removing An Option From A Select Based On The Option Value?

Jun 21, 2010

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.

JQuery :: Select Dynamically An Option In A Dropdown Select?

Aug 11, 2010

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');

JQuery :: Create An "Add New Option" Option To A Select List?

Oct 12, 2009

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.

Focus On Row After Select Change

Aug 9, 2011

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).
