Update Selected Option Based On Another Entry

Sep 30, 2011

I have an options list that is generated from a database. It currently has ~125 options in it. I've received the request that the user be able to either enter the corresponding number or select the option from the list. How can I update the "selected" attribute in the options list based on a number that may be entered in another text entry box?

How To Update Selection List Contents From A Server Database Based Upon User Data Entry

Jul 23, 2005

I am trying to create a web page in which the contents of one selection list
depends upon which element in another selection list is chosen, but where
the information to populate the first selection list comves from an SQL
database on the web server.

There are a couple of these situations in my application but, for example,
the first list might be a list of counties, and the second list a list of
states/provinces. Obviously the names of counties depend upon which
state/province is chosen, but there are too many possibilities to be able to
embed them within the web page itself. So when the user selects a
state/province I need to go to the server to ask for the list of counties.

I have seen a number of posts that sort of address this issue. For example
it is suggested to use <script src="a URL"/> to ask the server side code to
send up data of type "text/javascript". However the examples do not seem to
address how the server side code would know which state/province the user
had selected.

If there is a web site that addresses this sort of thing, I would appreciate
any pointers.

Update Field Based On What Is Selected

Oct 7, 2009

I am trying to create this form to update a field when a certain item is selected from a dropdown menu. I would like to have it to where when heat pump is selected from heating type, the AFUE field that originally has a value of 80 needs to be updated to 7.7. I would also like for the wording to be changed... Instead of having it say Current AFUE or HSPF, have it to where when a Single Speed Furnace or Variable Speed Furnace then it says AFUE below it, when Heat Pump is selected then it says HSPF, and if Electric Heat is selected do not have anything or even delete the whole field.

Checking Text Based On Option Selected?

Dec 6, 2010

I'm taking a beginning javascript class and have been trying to figure out one last part of a homework assignment and am just not seeing how to work it out. What I'm having trouble with is doing the text verification. When a user selects an option from the select list they then need to type in the text area given. If the user doesn't type the word selected in the list then an error message should appear under the text area. If you look at my code you'll see that I have the text_check() function doing the verification. I can get it to work when there is only one option but once I add the other two it stops working. I've tried if... else and other variations, but can't seem to nail it down.

Changing Hidden Field Value Based On Selected Option

Aug 25, 2009

how to Change a Hidden Fields Name based on selected option. The hidden fields name is sent off and I need to change the name depending on what option they select. For if they select MyList the hidden field name needs to be SelectLists[40] or if they select testlist the hidden field name needs to be SelectLists[41]. This is probably way, way off but I've done this and it doesn't work.

JQuery :: Removing An Option From A Select Based On The Option Value?

Jun 21, 2010

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.

Form Entry To Time Part Of Database Date Entry?

Aug 1, 2005

I have a textbox on one of my forms that is used to accept a time from the
user. I need to write this value to a database to trigger an event later on.

What I'd like to know is...

Are there any functions in javascript that can convert different time
formats to a known format (24 hour clock)... 5pm -> 17:00 or 5:00 to 05:00,
etc. ???

Assuming that I get the input into a 24 hour format, how can I create a full
time/date variable with todays date and the users entered time?

Finally, if the entered time is earlier than the current time, how can I
create the above date/time combination using tomorrows date?

Auto Update Price Based On Form Fields?

Aug 7, 2010

I am more of a front end guy with experience in xhtml/css and want to get my hands dirty with some back-end programming (Javascript/jQuery/AJAX/PHP) and was wondering about a specific task involving (mainly) what I would believe is AJAX.

I was wondering if there is a way to have a page with a starting price of $299 (lets say a basic vacuum) then below that are 20 or so customizable add-ons to choose from through simple checkboxes. That (to me) should be easy enough, but I would love to have the grand total at the bottom of the page be updated in real time as the user checks or unchecks certain add-ons (kind like how apple.com does it).

What is a good starting point for this, and would it be possible to send out the order as an email with the total price sent to the business owner.

Finding Option Selected With $(this)

Aug 3, 2010

I have multiple select boxes that have various options such as 'bangles', 'rings', 'earings' etc and I have a div that doesn't display until an option has been selected from one of the select boxes. If the option 'rings' is selected I don't want to display the div '#size'.

Jquery function:

The trouble I'm having is that I can't figure out how to use $(this) with option:selected. if I simply put the id of one of the select boxes then it works, but only for that one select box. I want it to be dynamic.

Onmouseover With Selected <option>?

Apr 19, 2010

Basically, I have a <select> drop down with a bunch of <option>s, each with an onmouseover command. The problem is that if I click on one of the options, it loses its mouseover effect. Here's the code:

Code:
<select>
<option onmouseover="tooltip('Some stuff')">Blah</option>
<option onmouseover="tooltip('Some more stuff')">More blah</option>
<option onmouseover="tooltip('Even more stuff')">Blah blah blah</option>
</select>

The tooltip() function creates a basic tooltip. While the drop-down menu is open, the onmouseover functions work just fine. It's when the option has been selected that it stops working.
