JQuery :: Getting Selected Value From Drop-down?

Mar 30, 2009

grab the selected value from a drop-down. The alert just shows an empty message. At least it is not showing undefined (as it was for my other attempts - you can see what these were from the commented out code), but I would expect it to display one of the values One-way, Reciprocal or Other. Perhaps I have to do some conversion on the result.

In my HTML I have:

<select name="dllViewSelector"
onchange="showSelectedView(this, allViews, allSections,4,10)">
<option id="oneway_4" value="one" selected="selected">One-
way</option>

[Code].....

JQuery :: Null - Undefined - Empty - Drop Down Option Is Selected In A Drop Down List ?

Oct 25, 2011

I am asking jQuery to tell me which drop down option is selected in a drop down list - like this:

I would like to check if this was successful before I proceed. What are the possible return values for this statement?

If no id exists.
If no option is selected.
If some other problem occurred.

In these cases am I expecting a null return; an undefined return, a false return value?

And, based upon the complete set of return possibilities, what would be the best and most comprehensive tests I could apply to cover every base.

Any idea how I'd pull that off?

Display Small Images When An Item Is Selected From The Second Drop Down

Feb 22, 2010

I found this perfect javascript for creating dynamic connected drop down boxes. This script works fine but there is just one thing I want to add but unfortunately I'm not familiar with javascript enough... I want to display small images when an item is selected from the second drop down. An image should be assigned somehow to each selection from the right hand drop down menu in the code and when someone selects something from the list, an image should be displayed next to it automatically.

JQuery :: Limit If A Value Can Be Selected In A Drop Down List (select) Based On Other List

Jun 9, 2009

I have a page that displays a list of people playing in a tournament. I need to be able to generate a Leaderboard based on which players are manually selected by the admin. Next to each person there is a drop-down list. An admin can go in and select a "slot" that a player should be in on the leader board from 1 to 8, or leave it blank if none. What I need to figure out how to do is the following, when a change event happens on a drop-down list, and say the value 5 is selected, I need to check to make sure that 5 is not already selected in one of the other players drop-down lists, in other words, that the 5th leaderboard slot is not already full. if it is, display an error message and make them change that one first. how to do that with jQuery? I'm thinking it will have something to do with the each() function, but not sure exactly how the logic should work.

Script - Add Together Dollar Values In User Selected Drop Downs And Display On The Page

Jul 1, 2011

Working on a script that will add together dollar values in user selected drop downs and display on the page. I get the script to work if the total is to be displayed in a text box, but I want to do a document.write() to put it as a piece of text. I know the answer is simple, but I just don't have the experience to figure it out. I think it may have something to do with local/global scope of the variable.

AJAX :: Adding "selected" To Dynamic Drop Down

Sep 26, 2010

I am in the process of adding a dynamic dropdown of cities that populates based on the county/state selected by the user.

I have managed to get it working but the problem I have is that when the user goes to edit their details this dropdown list does not:

1) Show the dynamically generated list of cities because the list uses the javascript onchange element i.e onChange="AjaxFunction(this.value);"

2)Have the city value that is stored in the database selected as default.

Here is the Ajax/Javascript used:

Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function AjaxFunction(cat_id)
{
var httpxml;

[Code].....

The first problem is to get the list to dynamically populate on page load and the second is to include the users selected city as "selected" in the options created by javascipt and ajax functions.
