is there a way to set a javascript variable as an option value?
supoose, i've
<script>
var Name;
var searchoption;
searchoption='Deptt'+'.'+Name;
</script>
Now how do i use it here:
Perform search at <select name="deptt" <option value=''>- Choose Deptt -</option><option value="Javascript variable">User Deptt.</option>
I'm trying set an option with a certain value to selected. I'm using this: $('#mySelect option[value="' + myValue + '"]').attr('selected', 'selected'); This has worked in another piece of code I wrote, but now IE 6 and 8 are throwing an error (in the debug bar). It's something similar to this: "The selected attribute couldn't be set. Unknown error." Anyone ever experienced something similar?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI need to change the value of a variable on a <select> question.
Code:
Currently the variable choses either 1or 2 so when I execute the function it will sum the value ie..3,6 ect.
I would like it to add the value in the text part of the option ie.. 5000,10000,15000.
I realize if I could I could change the value to be the same as the text value but the backend of this software needs the values to stay 1 or 2.
I was trying to do an "if else" statement but I am not sure how to format the syntax to work:
Code:
I am using a jQuery AutoComplete plugin which fills in text as you type. I need to find a way when the page is submitted (submit.php) to determine if the user choose a company from the list, or if they typed in their own unique company.
If an option is selected, can i have jQuery post an extra $_POST variable like "new" or "existing" so I can pick it up on the submit.php page? Or when an option is selected, can I have .js write a hidden tag which contains the variable "existing"?

index.php
Code HTML4Strict:
<script type="text/javascript">
function findValue(li) {
if( li == null ) return alert("No match!");
[Code].....
The end goal here is to post a variable on the next page if the user selected an option from the autocomplete list.
Here is the working script if anyone is interested.
I was missing the else if.
<script language="JavaScript">

if (document.Traffic_Results.CIP_Diff.value == "point1") {
document.Traffic_Results.display_time.value = "2:20";

I am searching a solution to change a ComboBox by popup I have found this script on the web. Is it also possible to select the newVendor just after adding? Is this script ok or are there better solutions?

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 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.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI wish to have options show or not show depending on the options selected previously. I think I would be right in saying this needs to be client side and think it must be javascript that is needed here. Either way what method should I use and what is the coding needed to do this.

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 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 am trying to declare a variable inside a function and use it later on in my code... but it just already returns white space... i.e. not variable value. I am setting it within this function:
function show_video1(){
document.getElementById('video1').style.display="block";
var video1Name = "Education World News (Part 1)";
document.getElementById('video2').style.display="none";
document.getElementById('video3').style.display="none";
document.getElementById('video4').style.display="none";
[Code]...
and trying to call it later on with this: <script type="text/javascript">document.write(video1Name)</script> It might be worth noting that each one of my 11 videos will hace a different name.
Ok, so I've built a member search using ajax to change the results each time a filter is changed. It works great, except one minor issue that I'm struggling with...I just can't specify dynamically in the parent file that linkclass$id opens linkclasscontent$id as I don't know of any way to pass that $id variable back over to the parent.
View 3 Replies View Relatedi'm not really sure how to explain this, since I know nothing about javascript, so i'll try and illustrate by the use of php (hope it makes sence)
I have a set of different links, like:
<a href="link.com?page=text1">text 1</a>
<a href="link.com?page=text2">text 2</a>
<a href="link.com?page=text3">text 3</a>
etc, where page is dynamic and can be anything I chose..
Another place in the same document, I echo out what the page variable is, like:
echo "$page";
so when clicking "text 1" the echo will output what i've defined the page to be, in this case "text1" ..
So I want to be able to click the links and change the output of the echo all depending on what i've defined in the link - without refreshing the page!
Is there any easy way to do this?
a.) specify two parameters for the changeYear function: today and holiday.
function changeYear(today)(holiday){
b.) in the first line of the above function, use the getFullYear() date method to extract the 4-digit value from the today variable and store the value in a variable named year.
first line
c.) in the second line; use the setFullYear() date method to set the full year of the holiday date object to the value of the year variable.
second line
d.) in the third line, use a conditional operator on the year variable. The test condition is whether the value of the holiday date object is less than the today date object. If it is, this means that the event has already passed in the current year and the value of the year variable should be increased by 1.
third line
e.) in the fourth line of the function, again set the full year value of the holiday date object to the value of the year variable.

I am simply trying to use a global variable in javascript, but can only access the variable on the second call. I can't find anything that relates to this through my searches. My application is supposed to query the server for XML that tells me which years and months are available to put into combo boxes. I want to store this xml in a global variable to access it later.

I start outside of the external JS file by: reviews.init(); reviews.initialiseContent('comment'); This loads my data and loads + sets the comment tab as default. My problem is that in the external JS file (shown below) the loadTabs variable will not allow me to pass it a variable: contentDiv.onclick = this.initialiseContent; Whenever I pass a variable here it errors, am I setting this up correctly, should I be using prototype for my this. variables? Interested to hear back on if this structure of code is the right way to go about this and also how I can pass a variable in this way :)

I mean a user enters a domain and the script converts to an ip and shows to the user. If not thanks, probably it can only be done in the server side...

I'm trying to create an array of dates two weeks apart from an arbitrary startDate, and I've noticed some odd behavior in my variables. I did a little experiment on my JS console and here's what I got. My inputs are in blue, the output is in black.

Everything's good so far, but here's where it gets odd. I try to add 14 days to cur.

Why is it that when I make changes to cur, the same changes are made to startDate?
