View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a scenario where I show a drop-down-with-few-items in a JSP page, to the user.
The length of few options in the drop down is greater than that of the drop down's, hence our requirement is to show the hovered (not selected) option as tooltip for user's convenience. I am not able to use title attribute for displaying tooltips in my browser.
Now the code ...
implements a tooltip for multiple select drop down menu.Can you modify the code for single select
I'm using a bit of Javascript to display content based on the dropdown selection:http://jsfiddle.net/mcgarriers/wjLXk/However, I would like it when the user selects "show two" that it shows the 2 div elements rather than specifically div2.And for "show three" it would show all 3 divs.

How can I count the items in combo box 2. Combo box 2 will initially have no items in the box on page load. It is up to the user to move the items to combo box 2 and I want to make sure at least 1 item was moved.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'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.

We have a list of items that each has a different quantity available. So I am going to create a multiple select menu, where they can select several different items. So, how can I make it that when they leave the field it sends all the different ones to the ajax program to build all the appropriate quantity forms?

I wish to know if is possible to change the selected option in a SELECT selecting a determined option into another SELECT in the same form.
E.g: When I select the option "Istruction" in the SELECT named "A" I wish the SELECT "B" change the default state from "empty" to "other"
I'm using Prototype and scriptaculous either, but here it is:
I have two select areas and scripts to transfer items between the two.
Everything works great in FF, but in IE when an option gets removed it
removes the entire select area. Has anyone ever seen something like
this before?
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');

View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a long form in a tabbed interface, where I want to count the non blank fields on each tab (the form fields are text and checkbox inputs and multi & single select fields). The counting function is as follows:
// Input argument is a tab object
function
countFieldsOnTab(obj){
var counttext = obj.find('input:text[value!=""]').length;
[Code].....
The counts of text, checkbox and multi-select fields works, but the single select count doesn't return what I want. The default option in single selects is a default where the value is blank "<option value="">-- make a selection -- </option>. These will be found as selected options.
How do I count only those options have have a non-blank selection?
I want to move elements of one select listbox to another if a checkbox is checked, but all the items get moved except one. Here is my code
<html>
<head>

var list_length=document.getElementById('firstlist').options.length;
for(i=0;i<list_length;i++){
i'm adding items to a select list like this:
var insertPoint = inst.getElementsByTagName("itemlist").item(0);
var itemCount = insertPoint.getElementsByTagName("item").length;
for(x=0;x<found.length;x++)
{
alert(found[x])
var item = document.createElementNS("", "item")
item.appendChild(document.createTextNode(found[x]))
insertPoint.appendChild(item)
}
Now if i want to delete all items of this select list how to do it?
I'm trying to limit the number of items that can be passed to the 'list1' select box to ten items. The way I have it now, it pops up a warning if user tries to pass more than ten, but then passes the first ten of the selected items through to list1 anyway. I don't want it to pass any items if they try to pass more than ten...just show the popup, and make them try again. Code:
View 18 Replies View RelatedThis is something I spent way too much time on, trying to figure out why it didn't want to do what I wanted in IE7. I'm posting it here, so maybe it will save some others a bit of time. The problem: You have a <select> and you wish to deselect all options. It turns out that you need to change the code, depending on whether you're using a select that can take multiple options or not. Both versions work in FF and Safari for both variants, but for Internet Explorer you'll need to use them as specified below.

I have a multiple select list
<select id=mylist name=mylist[]>
<option id=1>first</option>
<option id=2>second</option>
<option id=3>third</option>
<option id=4>fourth</option>
<option id=5>fifth</option>
</select>
Then I have a string of id's that I want to set to selected like so.
var selectedIds = '1,3,5';
Is it possible to use jquery (preferably in a one liner) to set first, third and fifth to selected.?
[code]I want to be able to highlight all of the divs which contain both the classes 'two' and 'three'. So the first and the third divs above are highlighted but the second isn't because it doesn't contiain both classes.I can see how to select multiple classes like this:$('.two, .three').css('background',''yellow');This selects items with either'two' or 'three' classes. I want it only to select the items with both classes.

I have a multiselet box in which i identify the selected items. Once the user has finished selecting the items it causes the form to be submitted. For this example it just shows the selected indexes. To see the problem. Copy paste the code and save as html file. Then click on an item in the select box.
I am having problem with indentifying the selected items. When only one element is selected, the selected option index does not come up fine. I have no clue as to why this is the case. Code:
