View 5 Replies View RelatedAm looking to find the easiest way to populate an order form that customers can email through to us.
I have created a database with 2 fields, id and name.
I would like to be able to have a form on my page with 3 fields, id name and qty.
I want to link the id and name fields on my form to my database so that when a customer starts to type a product id or description it will show a list of available matches. underneath which once clicked will populate the mssing field.
So for example is i have 2 products id 998 green apples and 999 red apples.
Typing in 999 in the id field of the form would populate the name field with red apples and typing red apples in the name field would populate the id field with 99.
if someone didn't know which apples they wanted they could type apples in the name field and underneath it would show both red and green which when clicked will populate both fields.
I'm trying to dynamically retrieve data from database and stuff all these data into an empty select list thru javascript. But I can't get it to work
PHP Code:
while( $row = mysql_fetch_array( $sql ) )
{
$getChildren .= 'var newCElem = document.createElement("OPTION");'
$getChildren .= 'newCElem.value = "' . $row['id'] . '";'
$getChildren .= 'newCElem.text = "' . $row['label'] . '";'
$getChildren .= 'allPaths.add(newCElem);'
}
$getChildren will be spit out to my javascript code part where I've place <%getChildren%>. When I try to manually type in the output into the javascript code, it works but not when dynamically.
Wonder if anyone can help. I have a page on my website where users can select their country and state/province from a drop down menu. The country and state/province drop down menus get populated from the mysql database using javascript: ie: the user select his country, and the states/provinces of that selected country is then populated into the drop down menu. The code looks like this:<select name="countryList" id="countryList" onChange="return CountryListOnChange()">So the js part onChange will only populate the states drop down menu when a new country is selected.Now the problem is: when the use goes back to his profile, he can see the country he selected, but not any state, since the states list is only populated onChange.

I've got a database written in MySQL with a bunch of PHP interfacing with it. What I want to do is populate drop down menus on a form from this database.
The way I went around solving my problem is as follows.
Code:
Which calls the function from the search.js file, which performs the following operation:
Code:
With element2 being the appropriate preemtied dropdown box, and addOption defined as follows:
Code:
So far so good. This works and produces the correct list of elements in the first dropdown box if the first dropdown box is the target. Here is where things begin to go wrong: On this form I have an add more elements button which is defined as follows:
Code:
And addElement being defined as such:
Code:
While this does successfully create all the cells I want it to create, when I attempt to select Country from the resulting dropdown, I get an empty drop down wit only the "Search For" present in it.
Firebug then proceeds to flag array in selectorfunc above:
Code:
What i believe is going on is that for SOME reason the newly created drop downs aren't being passed js_countries correctly. Unfortunately I don't know how to fix it.
I have a property site and I currently have it set up do that when entering a property the person selects a country.Depending on the country selected, the town drop down populates with certain towns in that country.ecause of the number of countries this javascript is pertty large and that worries me slightly. Also, if someone hasjavascript turned off then it doesn't work.In order to make it more accessible, would I have to seperate the form into 2 sepertate pages.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm basically building a javascript/html calculator but I need the calculation to appear gradually in a table, the table need to be 3 columns accross and add a row each time a calculation button is pressed, the first column can remain blank for now but will need to contain a text field eventually, second column needs to show the calculation symbol, third column shows the number. Here's an example:
4+2+7-5=8
|Blank| | 4 |
|Blank| + | 2 |
|Blank| + | 7 |
|Blank| - | 5 |

I'm looking at integrating a JavaScript/PHP/MySQL dependant drop-down menu order configurator. My client sells a lot of high-tech stuff, which needs to be customized, so I was thinking that this would be the perfect solution.
Rather than have the list statically populated with HTML tables, if the clients could automatically configure them to their specifications, then this would be the best option to avoid confusion, as well as save my client's support desk time and money during the pre-sales process.
However, I am not having luck finding what I need when Googling for dynamic dependant javascript php menus... a lot of basic JavaScript menus comes up, and that's great, and I really don't have the time to spend on this project creating a custom mysql/php implementation.
I am looking for an Ajax combobox (drop down, not a text box) auto complete script. I searched for it on Google and only result which seems similar to what I am looking for, is dhtmlxCombo. And that one is too complicated for me. What I basicly need is:
When the client types on the drop down, the records appear from MySQL database and when the client chooses one and submits the form, I want the ID (not the text written) to be posted.
I want to do is let the user input a file,then read the contents send it to the server, loop over the inputs to query MySQL, return the results and display it in a user friendly,scrollable table?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm dynamically outputting the contents of a MySQL table using Python, to a HTML table, which users view (obviously) through a web browser. It looks great, but the problem is that I'd like users to be able to update these values. For example, I have the current value of certain fields in text boxes. I'd like users to be able to change those values, then hit a submit button or similar (ideally on-the-fly) to update the dB. I imagine javascript will need to pass values to a Python script, but I don't know what the best way to go about this is.

I am trying to use AJAX to pull back mysql table information. I tried to alter an example I found (w3 schools) where they showed how use a selection table to pull a specific line out of a mysql table, using the "q" (not really sure if the "q" character is important or not). xmlhttp.open("GET","xxxxxxx.php?q="+str,true) I follow what they were doing there, but I want to pull the entire table back not just specific lines. (So I got rid of the Q)
Here is a snipit of HTML. The showdata function is part of the testpull.js code. You click the button and it should run the javascript to pull back the entire table and place it in the "placedata" div section.

Firstly this isnt a double post, I stupidly posted in the Java forum not the java script forum. Im trying to create a dynamic table based on the selections of multiple lists as per here Screen Shot
A user would select thier choices from the various lists and then add them to a table - this is where my question comes in. How do I achieve creating a table which will grow depending on how many additions a user adds?
Hope I make sense, Im trying to get my head around this.
I am looking for JQuery script to edit mysql table. I am sure something should be published, but I don't know where to search. I need something very simple to install and configure. The idea is to have a form field on a page, where all columns of table would be placed. Every mysql column should be on separate line and there should be a save button next to it. So if I edit a column, then I would just press Save button, and the request to save actual value would be send to server. No page reload. I would continue editing and saving all columns and when I would be at bottom of page, then I would press the Next button, and next mysql row would be loaded to the form field.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to be able to generate a table from which I can easily edit the contents of a mySQL database (similar to phpMyAdmin.) In that table I would like to have a button that will open a pop-up, allowing me to edit - and maintain formatting such as apostrophes and line breaks - a long description field. That popup will then populate a hidden input field on its parent with the modified description.
I've got the pop-up opening and its fields are populated using php's GET function (see line 11). The special characters, particularly carriage returns, are messing me up; I can remove them using php's str_replace, but I want to retain them for formatting.
I have a table that has parts with multiple characteristics. Part Number, Height, Width, Capacity, Price, Etc. I would like to have a drop downs for all of these values, when a user selects one of these values it will filter the results into a list. Ex. user selects a part that has a Height of 6 and width of 10 it will only list those parts. As I said earlier, I have a script that will give me all the parts, however I am not able to make the onchange list parts with multiple values.

I am having no luck with my post form to mysql. It is only posting the first letter of the word/phrase for the text input fields to the mysql database. It is a photo and text post form. The photo and only first letter of text are posting to database. I am using Jqtouch, jquery, and phonegap.
Here is my form fields:
Here is my java script:
I wish to get the values for the 3rd and 4th cell of each row where these contain drop down menus. I've tried various ways but my code doesn't seem to iterate through rows of a table. I can get the values for the first row, but not the rest. There's isn't a fixed row size for the table as the user will be able to add and delete them.
I've put the values in separate arrays but instead of the array containing say [10, 20] it contains [10, 10] as it just duplicates the first row's values.
Here's my code that I have so far:
function calculate(){
var len = document.getElementById(arguments[1]).rows.length;
var cMenus = [];
var gMenus= [];

I've tried adding j to the arguments or putting it in "[]" but nothing seems to work. I don't think the platform I'm using supports jquery,
This code is able to display a table and show me state, County, Genus and GenusCount and also it shows when I select option as All for Counties in my drop down. it can based on which it can change my table and give me State, all the Counties, its Genus, GenusCount but when I select a particular County and then select for genus in my drop down menu. It is not working correctly. This is my code.http://paste.flingbits.com/m58f9160Example: If I select `Tennessee->Anderson->All` it should display in tables
