View 5 Repliesthis is for a test, am not sure what they mean by "do not hard-code the resulting quarter years in the javascript":
Instructions: when a user selects a date from the investment cycle drop-down box, the subsequent investment values must display the next three fiscal quarters. (e.g. for "January 2010", the subsequent quarters will be Q2 2010, Q3 2010, Q4 2010; for "June 2010", the subsequent quarters will be Q3 2010, Q4 2010, Q1 2011.)
Do not hard-code the resulting quarter years in the javascript (empahsis mine...;-)
The subsequent quarters should be presented with checkboxes which are all unchecked.
My markup for the checkboxes:
The values to populate the checkboxes (value and label) have to be hardcoded somewhere, no? what am I missing?
(and, since markup doesn't change when u set value for chkbx dynamically, how do you check that you have set correct value for the checkbox? (don't know if it shows in Firebug, since don't know if code have there now is correct (have this funky code in there for now.. not sure how to approach this...$('#checkbox1').attr('value', 'Q2 2010');
And how do I populate label? (<label for=""....></label> -- do I need to give label an id? or can you grab "for" attr for a label with jQuery?)
I'm populating a select pulldown based on the value of a previous option on a pulldown
When I run it on the firebug command line it works fine, but when it is run in the source it does not populate the html with option's for the pulldown.
$('#regions').change(function() {
town=$('#regions :selected').text().trim();
$('#town').removeAttr('disabled').after().load('rtnregions.asp?region='+town;
});
I just know basic HTML & CSS. However, was working on a project that would require a little javascript. It's for a travel agency and the idea behind it is there is a "booking page" that is basically an html form with a bunch of hidden values (like the destination airport code, the origin airport code, etc). The only thing a potential customer has to do is use a selection list and pick the dates available for that travel sale and hti submit. However, there's a new promotion coming out next week where if you book to travel for certain dates, you can use a promo code to save $100 on your vacation. What I would like to know is if there is anyway I can use javascript so that if a person selects the promotional dates, it auto-populates the promotional code text field.

I have a html code like[code]...
using document.getelementbyId("search").value
i get internal but i need to get id of internal.
I 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 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 drop down with approx. 200 <option> elements, each option element has a value such as value="1", value="23", etc. Given a list of values, such as 5, 34, 43, 68, 123, how can pass those values to a function and then insert selected for each corresponding element?

<select name="category">
<option value="">No Preference</option>
<option value="Apples">Apples</option>
<option value="Oranges">Oranges</option>
<option value="Pears">Pears</option>
<option value="Banana">Banana</option>

I imagine somehow.. selecting the options and looping through them and match the value. Really new to javascript,
cna anyone tell me how to use the Select = "selected" option for a simple dropdown. for example when someone chooses c it will have a code like <option selected="">c</option> (am I doing it right, well if you got a firebug some site with dropdowns offers that option) so can anyone tell me how that works. I will be using it for a purpose of just selecting parts on my array, well incorporating it

For example: I have a list with 3 options

My mission: Open/collapse TD cells based on items selected in a list box. Getting no response from jQuery so I've done something wrong but cant quite get there. Listbox 'mainselect' contains option values that refer to names of TDs in a table. When a mainselect option is clicked, it will toggle to open or close the referenced TD list box by option value. Does hide/show make a TD 'blank' or actually set it's width to '0'? I want it to close, moving other cells left.

Is there a way to remove (not disable and not delete) an option in a "select" list, and restore it later when needed?
I have a form with many huge lists ("select" with many "options") that depend on eachother. I am dynamically updating the form through server, and wish to update the list values by sending a mask string. This way I could remove and restore the options without the need to pass the whole list again.
I tried many ways but none work:
* option.diabled="disabled" is not good because it is still shown
* option.style.visibility='hidden' is not good because it is still taking a row
* option=null is not good because I will not be able to restore it
I need a method similar to the following one for remove/add fields in a form:
remove:
<field>.style.display='none';
restore:
<field>.style.display=block';
Am trying to populate my second list box from the 1st. I have done the folowing code, iam trying to call a function in the onchange event of my 1st listbox, but it does not change the URL :( however if i manually change my URL then the thing works fine.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been working on a listbox full of employees for our company intranet. Each name has an onchange tag that calls up a floor map and that part works fine but I'd really like to populate the names from an XML list so it's easier for non-IT people to maintain.I've been doing alot of web searches on the subject which comes up alot but it's mostly just fragments of what I need being that I've got no javascript background.I found a helpful tutorial on javascriptkit but that wasn't for creating listboxes so I'm only part of the way there. The most important parts are the name which will be used as the text of the box and the office number which will determine which floorplan is displayed.I added the other information so I can potentially put it in a div display later but that can wait.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an select option list, each option has a numerical id, value and text. Each option has an array of its own. So when I choose an option from this list, I want to insert the options array into another option list with an id, value and text. Whats the best way of doing this? How do I select an array based on the value or text of a select option? For for example, take a list of car makes. If I choose the make Audi, how do I select the array of Audi models and insert these models into another select option list. All makes and models have their own numerical id, value and text.

I am planning on using the maito form with Javascript. I have a form and it is structured in the following fashion:
<form>
<b>Subject </b> <input type="text" name="subject" size="30"><br>
<b>Person 1 <b><input type="checkbox" name="email" value="person1@email.com"><br>
<b>Person 2 <b><input type="checkbox" name="email" value="person2@email.com"><br>
<b>Person 3 <b><input type="checkbox" name="email" value="person3@email.com"><br>
<input type="submit" onclick="submit">
</form>
What I am trying to do with Javascript is that you fill out the subject name and then you select which recipients of email you want to receive the email. So if I select Checkbox 1 and Checkbox 3 then when I click submit, it opens my Outlook and the To is filled in with person1@email.com;person2@email.com. So I guess I would need the javascript to populate and <href mailto: form after checking which names are checked and then populating the mailto with the variable that contains the list of names I chose. Right now we have a clunky method using the mailto but I don't have the option of choosing who it mails to so when I send it, I send the mail to everyone, even those on vacation.
I'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.

I have 2 drop down list that are populated through mysql. They both contain data upon initial page load. However when you select an option from drop down #1 it populates drop down 2 with data associated to it. Sometimes the 2nd drop down list has selected data already and I need it to be cleared back to the first option when the first drop down is selected.
the following code is what I use to populate the second drop down
$.ajax

type: "POST",
data: "company=" + $(this).val(),

I want fill a select list with the first list on page load, then depending on which option is chosen, fill another select list with the appropriate list. I'd prefer using only javascript!
I am populating a select box from ajax .. it is loading fine ..But when i submit the form then the value of select box is never passed .. As if there is no select filed on the form ..
Code:
<SCRIPT>
function content() {
var retval="abc";[code].....
So when I submit the form .. The county field is never passed on to next page .
I have a site that can consist of one or several (up to 20) select boxes that all list the same data (TeamID, Team). There are about 8000 list items to be loaded in the select box.This data is fetched in a seperate file using php+sql and with javascript and ajax, I populate the boxes. Note that these are populated on page load and not based on a specific action/change. The script looks for select boxes that have the class="ajax-team-list". Well, the above works. My drop-downs are being populated. However, it takes an insanely amount of time (30 seconds in IE). Skipping the javascript and only using php to get the same output takes 2-4 seconds, so something must really be messed up in the code, or?Any ideas, suggestions or thoughts about an alternative solution? For whatever reason, Firefox loads the above code in 2-4 seconds, Chrome takes 12 seconds.. and like I mentioned, IE takes 30 seconds.
