I am trying to make a unit converter with two dropdown boxes, two textfields and a button. I want to enter a number into the first textfield, select a unit option, then select another appropriate unit option based on the first selection, press the button and get the result in the second textfield. What would be the best approach for this. So far I have:

Here is a unit converter. At the moment it does length and weight, both in imperial and metric measurements. I'll put up soon instructions on how to add more units/unit types.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to create a conversion tool. On one side of the tool are 4 form boxes. On the other, just text (not in form boxes). Under the covers, I have formulas for converting the numbers -- mostly basic math functions. So, the user types in numbers, clicks convert and the text changes.For some reason, I'm having a hard time getting this to go. How can I get the results of these calculations to show up as text within a DIV tag and not inside a form element? There are lots of examples of getting these calculations to appear within form boxes, but not within DIVs. This page is already using the Dojo toolkit for some other functionality, is this something I could leverage here to build my Javascript?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering how to go about creating two
dropdown boxes such that when you select a value from the first one,
the second is populated with values that depend on the first.
I am getting some problems with populating my drop down boxes. I create the drop down through dom object.when I call this function onClick event in a button its work fine and populate the records from database so it does't matter how many times you click the button its work fine and populate all rows. The problem start when I call this function in a loop like in php file its populate only last row. but I want to populate all rows.

I would like to create reverse dropdown boxes (that is, dropdown boxes that "drop" the other way around--perhaps "drop-up" boxes could be the closest term I could associate with such elements) for the menu of my personal site; I've seen such menus before, however at the same time I have also neglected to take note of what JavaScripts were used.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm absolutely terrible at coding javascript, it makes no since to me, I'm "ok" at html but I just can't get Java, but anyways. I'm working on an averaging code for a forum I apart of that has to take the selected number from 5 drop down boxes adding them together, dividing by 5 and displaying the result.
the code I have is barely half completed, but it's not to long just the same thing over and over with the drop down boxes, so I was hoping someone could help me with this. Or at least guide me in the right direction. Code:
I'm populating a couple of dropdown boxes from an xml file, but can't get them working independently. As you can seehtmwhen you select an item from the first select box (a polyline), itdisplays the corresponding item from the other box (a polygon), too.I found this answer on the google maps forum:"Don't know of an example, but building two select boxes isn'tdifficult: pass into your createMarker() function the relevant flag,and add the data to one of two variables (instead of everything beingadded to select_html as now).You shouldn't need two handleSelected() functions -- both select listscan use the same function because each select box passes itself("this") into the function."which is what I thought I did (making sel_html and select_html) butmaybe the two variables being discussed here are different ones?cross-posted on the google maps forum here and here but not answered.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a product select page that is really slow to use because 6 dropdowns must be populated and the page reloads after selecting each box, to get the options for the next box.
I want to speed it up as follows:
1) User selects one of 50 products from a dropdown list.
2) Page reloads, and all the possible options for the remaining 5 dropdown boxes are now populated (ie. list options all stored client side)
3) User can freely input the remaining 5 dropdowns without the page reloading.
I'm working on a website where users can add films to a film directory through a form. One of the fields that can be filled in is a "Release date" field, where a correct release date can be filled in. The form uses dropdown boxes for selecting the date; this is much less confusing in terms of how to format the date than if one would just use a text input field. Here's a screen shot:[URL]..
I've been looking for a Javascript script that does three things:
1) Validate the entered date (i.e. no "31st of February" dates).
2) Check whether the date entered doesn't exceed today's date (so no release date in the future is allowed). This could be combined with PHP to find the today date.
3) If the "I don't know the release date" box is checked, simply skip the whole validation process (no need to validate something that won't be used).
I've been looking for Javascript code that does this, and I found a couple of scripts (like this one) [URL].. /date_validation.asp), but they all make use of text input fields where the user has to input it in a certain format (mm/dd/yyyy et cetera). This is not what I'm looking for, but having zero knowledge of Javascript I am completely unable to write my own code or adapt this code to what I want.
I already figured out the PHP that does all of the above, but I would also very much like to have some code that checks the date before the data is processed so that users who have made a mistake don't have to fill in the whole form a second time.
I've got two dropdown boxes ('language' and 'word'). When the submit button is pressed, I want a div to show with the right word in it. I can do this fine with one dropdown box, but two has got me stumped.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a drop down box (select) in my website: [URL] that works fine; but the problems is if the user click on a wrong option, it will show a box and if the user click on another option from the box, the last one will be on display and won't go off..
Like this select something and then at the same box change the selection you will see the code will build up boxes on the screen.. How I do for it not happens if the user change the option in the last box, the one before disappears!
I've been trying to do this since yesterday with no luck. I've tried stackoverflow, DIC and this is my last chance. I'm using drop down boxes to have a user select a ship date. I don't want them to be able to choose a date in the past however. Below is some code a guy at DIC sent me which doesn't have many changes from my original one but he said it was working and I havent been able to get it working.

i don't know much about JavaScript. I'm working on a PHP file, it has two dropdown boxes 'starttime' and 'endtime' I want it so that if someone selected 9am 'starttime' the 'endtime' should change to 10am onwards. so basiclly gap of 1hr.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for four level connected drop down boxes. Unlike all the scripts I have seen on the internet I need all the options to be available if nothing is selected in the previous drop down. So I want something like combination of connected drop downs and ordinary drop down. If the selection is made, display appropriate options in other drop downs... Hope I'm clear...

I have this code, and I was wondering if it is possible to make the select boxes appear AFTER you select the field before.
I'm trying to get use of the following JQuery example: Animated Boxes Example
So I wrote the following code trying to make a gallery from the example above:
The TestAnimeScroller.js Script is as following:
As you can see from the code above I'm using the webserive only for testing the scroller for ajax calls problems.It has only the Hello World default web method.
However every thing works fine except that the images are shaking abit whilescrolling to the left.I tried many things but it was no use.I prefer to make a scroller from scratch rather than use a plug-in so I could make custom things easily...I'm using Jquery 1.4.2
I have found a wonderful script at: [url]
But it seems that you can only move the boxes if you click them and then move them really really fast, otherwise they don't react... I looked at the js file but I can't figure out what to change in order to make the boxes move more smoothly...I can't place the js file because its to big...
Is there a free js library for doing unit conversions? I am putting
together an app that needs to convert volume and weight, among
others. You'd think that one exists, but I have yet to find it.
Ok so I have a site that I want to automatically close the window when the focus is lost from the page. For example, if the user clicks off the page to something else on there desktop I want the page to close. So far I have managed to do this but the grids on my page and the scroll bars all trigger the close function when clicked on. Is there anyway to make the scroll bars and drop down boxes not trigger the function?
This is the code I have so far.

i wonder if tablesorter does not properly parse the number of a table cell since it sorts a col of length values like this:
...
23 cm
115 cm
13 cm
May it be it takes only the very first digit into account? How to handle this without a core hack?
