How can I make a drop down menu that are dynamically generated base on the

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.
I have to insert in a html select the last 10 years
<select name="year" onChange="month()" size=5>
<option value="1994">1994</option>
<option value="1995">1995</option>
<option value="1996">1996</option>
<option value="1997">1997</option>
<option value="1998">1998</option>
<option value="1999">1999</option>
<option value="2000">2000</option>
<option value="2001">2001</option>
<option value="2002">2002</option>
<option value="2003">2003</option>
<option value="2004">2004</option>
</select>
I did this way. I d like to do it dynamically in javascript but I have
no idea how to insert the result of a function in an option value.
Here is my options select from my form. Its dynamically generated with php.
Code:
<select id="upgrade[]" name="upgrade[0]" onchange="javascript:calTotal(this);">
<option value="1">1</option><option value="2">2</option>
</select><br />
<select id="upgrade[]" name="upgrade[1]" onchange="javascript:calTotal(this);">
<option value="1">1</option><option value="2">2</option>
</select><br />
<select id="upgrade[]" name="upgrade[2]" onchange="javascript:calTotal(this);">
<option value="1">1</option><option value="2">2</option>
</select><br />
Using javascript I want to get the selected value. Here is what I have, but its getting no where:
Code:
function calTotal(aVar)
{
var c = document.getElementsByName(aVar);
c = c.length ? c : [c];
for(var i=0; i<c.length; ++i)
{
if(c[i].value==1)//I am getting undefined here
{
}
}
Is there a way to loop through an array of option selected like the one I have here?
I've been beating my head against a wall for a few days trying to get this working. I'm trying to create a dynamic menu where a user selects one item and another select list is shown, then another and another (and so on). Here is my JS, it *should* be taking the ID of the div, comparing it to the selected value and then showing another div by settings it's class property to visible:
[Code]...
If the user types "a" then the select box is populated with "Choose An Animal...", then the three three animals beginning with A. So far so good. But if the user selects say Albatross and then types the letter b then the option "Bear" is selected rather than "Choose An Animal". Although the code is sel.selectedIndex = 0; (not 1). How can I force the selected index to 0 when a choice has been made previously? Is this a bug - if so it is the same in IE and FF.

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();
}
How can I disable an option in a drop-down menu? Specifically, I want
to disable the option "Bouncy Castles". I want to display it, I just
want the user to be able to select it. As well, how can I remove the
indentation?
I am using table filter.[url]...

Hey does anyone know if it's possible to set focus on a specific option of a select menu?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'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.
I have a javascript adding new options to a drop down select menu getting the information from the database.[code]...
I want one of them to be added as selected. I will put an "if" check and if it the value of the option and the value in the database is equal I want that option to be added as "selected".
I'm trying to remove an option in a dropdown menu so it's default is not Select. I'm using jquery-latest.js.This is the html:
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="column_main" align="center"><b>Size</b><br>[code].....
It doesn't seem to be working. When I do it without an attribute it replaces the lot of options which isn't what I'm after.
How can I do this with jquery. I tried this- code...
And it successfully added "selected" to the correct item. But it wasn't actually selected. How can I do this correctly?
Suppose I have this drop down menu: <select>
<option selected>Milk</option>
<option>Coffee</option>
<option>Tea</option>
</select>
How can I change the default (selected option) from Milk to Tea dynamically?
I'm looking for some code for creating a drop down option menu for locations, i.e. when registering a user selects a state / county from a drop down menu.I need 3, one for USA, UK and Europe.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThis is hopefully my last jquery question. I have a slight issue with my buttons and dropdown menu. What happens is lets say user chooses option type "ABCDE" in first dropdown menu and then second dropdown menu chooses the value "4" for the number of answers and then clicks on the buttons "A","B","C" and "E", well if the user then decides to change the option type to "ABC", the buttons "A", "B" and "C" are still selected from the last time they have been selected.
What I want is that if the Option Type (OptionDropId) changes, then buttons selected is refreshed so no buttons are selected from the last time they have been selected.
This did used to work but when I included my change() event handler in my code which I need, the buttons do not refresh whenever a new dropdown option (OptionDropId) is selected. So I think the edit of the code may need to happen in the code below:
Code:
$(document).ready(function ()
{
var OptDrop = new Array();
OptDrop.abc = ["",1,2];
[Code]...
My code is in JSfiddle, (the second dropdown menu and buttons may not appear in JSFiddle but the code does work properly, I feel it is better displaying code in JSfiddle then in my questions as it will take up a lot of space. If you want to see working version then post code in your web document and it should work).

View 3 Replies View Relatedi'm currently designing a dropdown menu that can create a textfield or another dropdown menu based on the option from the first menu. is it possible to create this out of javascript?
Code:
<select name="dropdownMenu" id="dropdownMenu">
<option value="textfield">Show Textfield</option>
<option value="dropdown">Show Dropdown</option>

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'
}} .....
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 cannot use the title attribute option as its not compatible with my web browser
