There is a drop down list on my Web page with various values to be
selected by the user. Once the user has selected a value, he/she clicks
on the submit button. When he/she does that I would like 2 things to
happen: the selected value of the drop down list is passed to another
html page which opens in a new brower window open.
I want to get the cursor start and end position of a selected range in a text-field or text-area. i tried lot of functions in various forums. but when the last character of the selection is a new line character JavaScript ignore it in IE6. any one having idea ?

I'm trying to 'wrap tags' around text in a text box.
<script language=javascript>
function insertFauxTags(fauxTag, e, endFauxTag)
{
var e = document.frmAddNewForum.txtTopicMessage.selected;
document.frmAddNewForum.txtTopicMessage.Value += fauxTag + e + endFauxTag;
}
</script>
And my form:
<form runat="server" id="frmAddNewForum">
<asp:textbox id="txtTopicMessage" runat="server" cssclass="formtext" rows="5" textmode="MultiLine" width="95%" style="width:95%"></asp:textbox>
</form>
And here's how I'm calling the function:
<a href="javascript:insertFauxTags('[p]' + e + '[/p]')"><img src="http://www.<%=strSiteName%>/images/parabutton.gif" border="0" alt="Paragraph" /></a>
When I run this in FF I get 'e' is not defined - any ideas?
Is there a way to tell if the text in a text box has been selected forwards or backwards?If you select some text from left to right and then hold down shift and use the cursor keys the right end of the selection moves. If you select some text from right to left and then hold down shift and use the cursor keys the left end of the selection moves.Is there a way in Javascript to detect which way the text has been selected? I need to know if the "end" position is before the "start" position or after. Using ranges and selection objects seems to "normalise" the selection so that the start is before the end.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been struggling on a bit of code for a while now. I need to populate a second drop down list (Region) based upon the selection of the first (County).I have found a piece of code that works on its own and have adapted to suit my needs - see below. However, when I drop it into my main page the javascript is not working. It's because of the formObject but I just don't know enough to resolve this! Furthermore, I need the textboxes the user has already completed in the form to retain their value once the javascript kicks in as the completed form will submit to a database.This piece of code is working well . . . .
<?php
$link = mysql_connect('myhost', 'myusername', 'mypassword') or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('mydatabase') or die('Could not select database');[code]......
Is there any way to check if any text is selected with Javascript?
And then how would I add something around the selection?

I have a problem I couldn't get an answer to.
Lets say I have an HTML page that look like this code...
What I want to do with javascript is get the highlighted text tag. The tag can be every tag, not only <div>.
What I have decided to do is this:
1. You can choose which site you wish to visit from the first page,
after pressing go it takes you to a frame page.
2. Inside the frame is the site, and a hidden frame
3. the hidden frame should be able to take the variable from the url
place it in a text box,then place the text in that text box to the external sites textbox and then submit.
giving them the search result
so far I have made the page for choosing the sites, made the sites frame pages. But the frame within those pages I cant get to take the variable from the URL and place it inits textbox, also I dont know from there how i can make a Timeout so that it then passes that text information on to the external site and submits it.
I am having some issues passing information to a text box in a form. Basically, right now, when a date on the calendar is selected, the date is printed in the <div id="date"> field. however i want to put this value in the form text box instead. I've tried document.getElementsByName('date') or getElementById('date') and get either a "Object HTMLDivElement" or "Object NodeName" in the text box.

How to unselect the text after the text was copied?
I found this code on some web site which actually works on my current Safari browser. I will be grateful if anyone out there with IE version 8 or less can verify it working as well.
Basically I wanted to highlight some text with mouse drag, and have that piece of text wrapped with [high] at the beginning and [/high] at the end.

Would there ever be any problems with the following script depending
on what type of characters are in the text string? I am appending the
value of hidden form field to the query string.
//Assume JavaScript enabled browsers and popups allowed....
var months = "April Showers";
document.write('<p><img src="ad11.jpg");
document.write(" alt=");
document.write(months);
document.write(">");
document.write(months);
How come when I display my output to a browser without the presence of the
ad11.jpg file, only the first word (April) in the text string "April Showers" is dispayed where the .jpg file is suppose to be...but the last line displays the entire text string.
I have a textarea and some buttons. The buttons apply functions to
the text the user selects, i.e. the good old "wrap with a tag"
thing we all have seen in 100 different editors.
Trouble is, when I click the button, the selected text gets
unselected. Select some text in the textbox and click -anywhere-
and the text unselects.
Can you pick out just the text that a user has selected in a TextArea using
JS?
I have a textfield and you of course you can select text...
When they hit the bold button I want it to obtain the selected text and
bold it, the hard part is trying to figure out if javascript can even
OBTAIN selected text?!?!
I can do this in java if I have to, I know java better than javascript,
it seems as that is the only way to do it from looking online.
Pardon me if I am not making any sense.What I want to know the
cordinates of selected text by user so that i can save/retrieve them
later.is It possible.I am lookig for both IE and Firefox solution.
