Is there a good library available (jQuery or stand-alone) that allows you to customize the troublesome form elements that aren't very receptive to CSS across browsers?
I was looking to try to match drop downs, radio buttons and check boxes with the same look and feel as everything else.
When it one better than the other? I need customers to choose a media type for a catalogue, booklet or CD/DVD. I would rather have the customer choose what they wish rather than force an initial choice. I have been toying with radio buttons but trying to validate them and keep them off initially is quite difficult. Would I be better off using check boxes instead? If so, how do we determine which check box has been selected?
I am trying to adapt code that lets users select a search enginrom radio buttons and use it to search internet.It works fine with check boxes, but I would like RADIO BUTTONSbut cannot because they all need the same name to functionin a set. I have no real knowledge of javascript and would really Code Below
<script language="javascript"> <!-- function netsearch(formname)
java and i am having trouble getting radio buttons , check boxes and pull down lists to work in my form whenever i put them in there they just come up as undefined. And if i try to put any if statements in the hyper links stop working as the program cannot run. Obviously as i am doing something very wrong.I am at a loss and have spent hours on it and just cant get these things working.Any thing with a typed answer works great such as first name or last name here is the code i have written so far
<script> function hidediv(divname) { if (document.getElementById) { // DOM3 = IE5, NS6
I'm trying to create a questionnaire style series of radio buttons which are hidden and then a different set of radio buttons displayed depending on the previous answer. eg
Q1 Is it a man? (if select yes then display)
Q2 Is he called John? (if no then display)
Q3 Is he called Gary? and so on...
I've been testing using the code below but wondered if anyone had any ideas on how this could be done easily?
I am trying to create a type of search engine. There are two radio buttons at the top, in the middle there is a text box, with the search button next to it, and at the bottom there are four check boxes. When the form loads one of the two radio buttons are selected as the default, what i want is when someone clicks on one of the four checkboxes, one of the two radio buttons are deselected. The user is able to select all 4 checkboxes if he/she wishes, but if they click on a check box, the radio button, depending on which one is select is deselected. Sorry if thats confusing, I don't know much javascript, so a in depth example would be nice, here is my code so far....
I am trying to test out a basic xhtml form using radio buttons and text boxes. I want a user to select one of the radio buttons and have the focus change to the relevant text box where they can enter in the title of their choice.
Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
This seems to work perfectly across all browsers except for IE (latest version).
In IE the only problem is that the radio buttons have to lose focus before the span will change to visible. I would like the "specify" field to display immediately after the radio button changes to yes, rather than waiting for the buttons to lose focus.
I have a form with x questions (the questions come from a database, so the number of questions is variable). Each question needs to be answered with a number form 1 to 10, I do this using radio buttons. The name if those radio buttons is "name" followed by the id of the question in the database. Because the name is variable and the number of questions is variable, how can I check if all the questions are answered i.e. one radio button must be checked for every group of radio buttons.
I have a form that will dynamically place a number of radio button groups on the page. I don't want the user to be able to submit the form until a value has been chosen for ALL fields. I have hidden the submit button with the though of showing it again once ALL fields have been checked. My code so far...
$(document).ready(function () { //Hide the submit button $('#MainContent_sbmtButton').hide(); //Change background of question to show clearly which questions have been answered
[code]....
This doesn't work as expected. It shows the submit button when any of the radio buttons are clicked.
On a form on one of my pages I have two <select> elements, and each one is paired up with a radio button. The idea is to choose an item from one list or the other and select the radio button of the list you want to use.
I'm using JavaScript to automatically select the radio button corresponding to a list when you click on the list (using the onclick event handler). Is that the best event to change on, or should this behavior be triggered on the onChange event - so if they don't change the value they won't have to re-select the other radio button?
Sitting with this script for a dropdown menu. I have three languages in a drop down menu and three radio buttons. Swedish, English, German I want each radio button to be selected with the same language I select in the dropdown menu. I have tried all different variations I can think of but have not succeeded. I have only managed to get two languages to function.
I would like to disable a check box depending on whether 1 of 3 radio buttons is chosen by the user. As I am a js noob, I don't have any beginning code to start with.
I have 4 groups of radio buttons (4 different questions using radio buttons) that I need to be required but only if a check box is selected. Also, is there a way to disable these radio buttons if the check box has not been selected?
Ok, I just tried to make this post and got logged out when I hit preview, so this time around it's gonna be much shorter as my patience has run out.
...Over at gazingus.org there is a sweet little bit of code that uses the DOM to make dropdown menus.
I have altered the code (see below) to make the menus appear on the first mousover instead of the onClick event.
However, they never go away. I'm trying to figure out how make the last menu open disappear after a short delay. I've already tried this
actuator.onmouseout=function(){
if(currentMenu){ setTimeout('currentMenu.style.visibility = "hidden";',2000); } } However, it doesn't work. The delayed code events pile up on each other if menus are continually moused over and out. (Say the user can't decide what menu they're looking for and runs the mouse left...then right...then left...)
The result is that after the 2000ms the menus close instantly....
/* * menuDropdown.js - implements an dropdown menu based on a HTML list * Author: Dave Lindquist (http://www.gazingus.org) */
var currentMenu = null;
if (!document.getElementById) document.getElementById = function() { return null; }
function initializeMenu(menuId, actuatorId,position) { var menu = document.getElementById(menuId); var actuator = document.getElementById(actuatorId);
i have a soccer-site, on which of course, can be kept track of played matches. Now the admin has to be able to set the number of goals, and then select who scored what goal.
I want a system where one can put a number in a textfield (NaN would return an error). Say the admin enters Ɖ'. Then three dropdown lists appear below that field, in them are the players. If he turns Ɖ' (goals) into ƈ', the lowest one has to be deleted, but the upper two have to stay, with an unchanged (already selected) value ...
Preferrably cross browser. I just can't seem to figure out, i've tried loads of innerHTML and document.write(), both didn't give me what i wanted (yet).
Does anyone know if such a thing exists in web programming as an intelligent dropdown boxes (you know the type where u can type and it automatically completes your text for you from data it has stored in the database?)
what i'm looking to do is have a drop down menu, where when an option is selected it displays a description elsewhere on the screen and opens up another drop down menu along side the first one, then i'd like the second one to do the same as the first and finally i'd like the third one to just display a description.
but i'm not sure how to do it? javascript? if so what's it called so i can look into it/a tut on it.
so drop down 1 is either poetry or prose down down 2 is for poetry + narrative + nature + romantic
but for prose it's + fiction + non-fiction
but that's not just it, if you select poetry in drop down one, i want it to display a description (that's in the description="" of the option) and i want that the same for each different menu, though to appear in different position for each menu Code:
when a user clicks a radio button, javascipt populates the next drop-down depending on which radio button they clicked. This then happens to a next drop-down list. Code:
I am trying to create a webpage and it would be obvious to anyone who reads my source code (it's a mess) that I created it using a template. I know almost nothing about webpages, but am happy with all but a few bugs in my page.
I have read many posts about opening drop-downs in new windows, and have spent hours looking over my source code to see what I have done wrong.
My links open in the same window like I want, but ALL of my drop-downs open in a new window!
