I have a little bit of a complex script where I have a <SELECT> that is pre-loaded with options that are loaded from a database in PHP. But, when this page is loaded the <SELECT> is disabled, and is only enabled when an onChange() is triggered on another <SELECT> that is situated on the same page.
Anyway, when I enable the <SELECT> I would like to have one of the <OPTION>'s selected (instead of having a blank <SELECT>).
The line of JavaScript that I have so far (but isn't really getting me anywhere) to try to select an <OPTION> when the <SELECT> is enabled is as follows...
n the following script, I am trying to set selection to a select option element, that is newly created within the script. It works fine on IE installations on Windows 2000 and some XP machines. But on some XP machines, the selection doesn't happen and it defaults to the first element in the options array. Has anybody come across this problem ? Any known workarounds?
I'm trying set an option with a certain value to selected. I'm using this: $('#mySelect option[value="' + myValue + '"]').attr('selected', 'selected'); This has worked in another piece of code I wrote, but now IE 6 and 8 are throwing an error (in the debug bar). It's something similar to this: "The selected attribute couldn't be set. Unknown error." Anyone ever experienced something similar?

I'm setting up a fictitious shopping page which uses cookies to remember what a user has selected. The products are photographs that the user can select either framed or unframed versions and I'm trying to put a confirmation box if the user actually requests framed and unframed versions of the same photograph. The code I'm using actually worked before I tried to add this extra functionality but I can't work out how to test for this extra bit. Here's my code and it sets cookies with names as either lulworth01 for the unframed version or lulworth01f for the framed version. The bits that work are in black and my extra code for this test is in red.
function getCookie(name){ var index = cart.indexOf(name + "="); if(index == -1) return null; index = cart.indexOf("=", index) +1; var endstr = cart.indexOf(";",index); if (endstr == -1) endstr = cart.length; return unescape(cart.substring(index, endstr)); } function setCookie(name) { if ((name.charAt(name.length-1)='f') && (getCookie(name.substring(0,10))!=null)) { confirm("You seem to have placed orders for both a mounted and framed image of the same photograph. Is that OK?"); } else { alert("Thank you. Your basket has been updated."); x=parseInt(getCookie(name)) || 0; y=x+1; var today = new Date(); var expiry = new Date(today.getTime()+28*24*60*60*1000); // plus 28 days document.cookie=name+"="+y+";expires="+expiry.toGMTString(); cart = document.cookie; }}
I'm having a slight problem with php pagination and jquery/js. On the following page [URL] you'll see an "athlete profile" area. Whenever an athlete photo is selected, javascript/php are used to switch out the athlete info. This works perfectly fine. The problem occurs if I use the left or right arrows to view more athletes (the left and right arrows are set with php pagination to switch to the next four records in the database). Whenever I do this, the athlete info defaults back to the first person from the initial load. Also, the javascript/jquery quits working and won't let me view the info for one of the newly displayed athletes. So I have two questions:
1) why it defaults back to the original athlete info? I'm assuming it has something to do with me not setting a cookie to remember the currently selected athlete.
2) Why does the javascript quit working when I view the next set of athletes?
Also, the jquery slideshow that I am implementing is an alteration of this: [URL]
I´m trying to create a dropdown menu through createElement, browser is IE. The problem is setting one of the options as "selected".
So far I have: options = editor.config[txt]; el = document.createElement("select");
for (var i in options) { var op = document.createElement("option"); op.appendChild(document.createTextNode(i)); op.value = options[i]; el.appendChild(op); }
I get my dropdown menu, but how do I set selected? I´ve tried op.selected = true without success.

I have various list boxes in a web form. I need list box No. 4 to be disabled until a selection is made in a previous list box, the No. 2 listbox. If some selection is done in listbox No. 2 then I can do a selection of list box No. 4. How can I do this?
This is irritating cause i read a arcticle with a solution to this in one of the many newsletters i receive, but then i didn't need it and now i do i can't find it, and i'm searching for days now .
I have say 3 links
link1 --- link2 --- link3
all of then formatted nicelly with CSS. When i select one of then, say link1, it becames with a diferent background color.
What i want is to keep tha backg color even when the user clicks anywhere on the page (thus loosing focus) and until another link is clicked.
I tought this could be possible in a CSS only way, but now i think i have to use some Javascript.
I'm using jQuery to check if a group of radio buttons has one of them selected. This works fine if there IS one selected, but errors if NONE are selected. Can anyone show me how to make it work if NONE are selected?[code]
I need some jQuery code to get the data from the URL (example.com/?areaCode=1234) and then use it to add selected="selected" to the correct option from this set.
<option value="1111">one one one one</option> <option value="2222">two two two two</option> <option value="3333">three three three three</option> <option value="1234">one two three four</option>
I hope you understand, it's quite hard to explain even though its super simple. I can do this in PHP by doing<option value="1234" <?php if($_GET['areaCode'] == 1234) { echo 'selected="selected"; }>one two three four</option>
I need to set two cookies. One to be used for redirection and page loading, which i have now and works and a second one that is used to write information on a page.
Both are to be set automatically when loading the page. The second will will set a company name like "Your company name". Then when the next page is loaded it will put "Your company name" on the webpage. And like I said before the first cookie is set for navigation purposes.
I need to set tabs on java generated pages. Pages have four sections: header, sidebar, body, and footer. The sidebar and body change dynamically. The tab key must go to anchors, fields, and buttons doing all in the header first, all in the sidebar second, etc. A base page contains includes for all the pieces and has the body tag. Code:
I'm just getting into DHTML, and there's one thing I'm getting stuck on in my current project. I'm building a list of destinations to display in a window. Each one is in its own separate div. But I can't seem to figure out how to add a link to those div's on the fly in my script. Is there a way to do that in JavaScript?
I have a simple table in which there are a collection of TRs inside a TBODY and a collection of TDs in each TR. I have a jQuery click event bound to a single TD in each TR. When I click onthis TD I use css to set its background color. When I click on the bound TD in another TR I want to be able to change the previously selected TD's background color and then change the newly clicked TD to a new background color. My click binding appears as follows:
.click( function(){ var nRow = $(this).parent().parent().children90.index($(this).parent());
Is there a small javascript snippet or something that can dynamically set the body ID on page load? I am using the Inverted Sliding Doors tabs from 456 Berea Street Code: but am trying to do so in a frameset [insert angry comments here] (I know I know, please don't harp!)... anyway, the tabs css sets the active tab using the body ID, but I can't seem to get it to recognize the body ID inside the frameset. Is there a javascript or some other code I could use to dynamically set the body ID? Or perhaps a better approach?
I have a form that displays an icon beside a field if it contains a negative value and want to remove the icon when the value is no longer negative.
I was doing note_icon.src = '' but this produces "Directory Index Forbidden by Rule" messages in the server error log because the empty string is being interpreted as meaning the directory where the script is running on the server.
