Select An Option From A Menu List?

Aug 23, 2010

I'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.

2 Dropdown Menus - Make A Form Where The User Is Only Able To Select An Option From One Of The Drop Down Menus?

Feb 11, 2009

I am trying to make a form where the user is only able to select an option from one of the drop down menus and if they click both then submit an error should pop up telling them to select just one. Now I have found this code:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"'>
<!--
function validateForm(){[code]....

the first problem is that my menu must be named "id[2]2" which causes a problem due to the bracketed 2 and the 2 after. Is there any way around that?the second problem I forsee is that this will only work with 1 drop down box being unselected. I need a code that will give the warning if nothing is selected OR if something is selected in both drop downs.

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.

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.

Nov 3, 2009

I actually want to make a horizontal drop down menu with a sub menu.As far as I have researched, I think that it can be done by JavaScript. I have searched for some java scripts but they are very long and complex.

That made me wonder that for a funcitonality like a Drop down is so complex?

So here is my question : Is there any JavaScript that can be applied for drop down menu exclusively? Which just presents logic of drop down solely?

Buttons Do Not Refresh When An Option From Drop Down Menu Changes?

Dec 4, 2011

This is hopefully my last jquery question. I have a slight issue with my buttons and dropdown menu. What happens is lets say user chooses option type "ABCDE" in first dropdown menu and then second dropdown menu chooses the value "4" for the number of answers and then clicks on the buttons "A","B","C" and "E", well if the user then decides to change the option type to "ABC", the buttons "A", "B" and "C" are still selected from the last time they have been selected.

What I want is that if the Option Type (OptionDropId) changes, then buttons selected is refreshed so no buttons are selected from the last time they have been selected.

This did used to work but when I included my change() event handler in my code which I need, the buttons do not refresh whenever a new dropdown option (OptionDropId) is selected. So I think the edit of the code may need to happen in the code below:

Code:
$(document).ready(function ()
{
var OptDrop = new Array();
OptDrop.abc = ["",1,2];

[Code]...

My code is in JSfiddle, (the second dropdown menu and buttons may not appear in JSFiddle but the code does work properly, I feel it is better displaying code in JSfiddle then in my questions as it will take up a lot of space. If you want to see working version then post code in your web document and it should work).

Read Doc To Get <option>s For Select Drop-down?

Mar 22, 2010

I want to use a <select> drop-down in a form to let my user select a date from a list. The problem is how to easily update the list.

Easiest would be to have a list of dates in a separate file, and have code that would read the dates and write them into the <option> statements of the <select> control. Then when the page with the <select> control opens, the code will open the other file, get the dates, and update the <option>s. And all I have to do is periodically FTP a new date file.

I'm stuck in Visual Basic and FileSystemObject, where I can open a file, read line by line into an array, concatenate a string, and write it into a doc. I can't seem to find similar methods in JavaScript - no duh, because this isn't VB!

So _is_ there a way to do this? Maybe a certain way to create the date file so the code can easily find the values? (Like putting the dates into a table with each <TD> having a unique ID?) And assuming I manage to get the dates, I need to write them into the source HTML, vice in the document body.

What objects, methods, properties do I look at? Are there any samples floating around out there?

JQuery :: Create An "Add New Option" Option To A Select List?

Oct 12, 2009

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.
