HTML - Select The Correct Value In Selection Form
How can I select the correct field in my "Select form field", once I know the value from php/mysql?
PHP Code: $_SESSION['job'] = "FX"; Now I want to update the form to display the selected value... HTML Code: <select multiple="true" name="field"> <option value="FL" selected="true">Flash</option> <option value="FX">Flex</option> <option value="AJ">Ajax</option> <option value="PH">Php</option> <option value="HT">Html</option> <option value="JV">Java</option> <option value="CC">C++</option> </select> Similar TutorialsHTML Code: <div class="contactlistdiv"> <select multiple="yes" name="send" class="contactlistone" size="6"> <option value="1" >hello</option><option value="2" >gee</option><option value="3" >gluba</option></select> </div> I am creating a list like the one above. When I style it with CSS it wont let me select any options! E.g if i float left or right(float:right; ) with CSS it wont work. Where as if I place it absolutely somewhere it will work. Problem is to get it exaclty where I want i need to float it. I have tried placing it inside a relatively placed div absolutely but it still wont let me select. I have also tried styling both classes contactlistdiv and contactlistone but it doesnt make a difference. Any help appreciated. Thanks. I have a form that contains a drop down list; <select name="list" id="list" multiple="multiple"> When the user clicks the form's submit button I want to run a function that returns true if an <option> from that <select> object was selected and false if they forgot to make a selection. What is a simple way of doing this? I was thinking that maybe there was an object method like; if(document.form.select.optionSelected()==true) {do something; return true}; else {do something else; return false;} Hello. I was wondering if it's at all possible to have a specific checkbox or radio button checked/selected when the user gets to that page depending on the link they clicked to get to that page. For example, I have a client who wants the user to go to a single form but from different categories (rather than having a form for each), but to make sure the recipient of the email knows which category it came from, the checkbox for that category would already be checked. The user would be able to check it themselves as well, but this ensures it's already selected and creates convenience for the user. Thanks I've seen it alot of places, though I cannot seem to get my hand on how it works (as I never think about checking the source when I DO see it!).. How can I get one <select> field option to control another? Like, say I have a list with: 1 2 3 4 and a list with: A B C D ..and when I select "3" in the first list, I want the second list to AUTOMATICLY change to "C". How do I accomplish this? Hey, Using PHP and MySQL but I thought this problem is more suited to HTML (admin, please move if its not). I have a drop down select form which I want to automatically change the page once the user has selected it. Like a home page of a company and you choose the country, when it automatically goes to the appropirate page. Any ideas of how to do this? Thanks, Hey, just a quick question... How would i go about using an image as a select option in a form? i know its possible as ive seen it around on a few sites before, but im not sure how to do it myself. tried the obvious: <select name="stars"> <option value="1"><img src="MYIMAGE"></option> </select> but oviously that doesnt work. any help would be greatly appreciated. Hello All, I have recently founded a non-profit performing arts company (www.the roarkfaction.org). We'll be accepting members for $60 a year, payable at once or in monthly increments of $5.00. I've written this HTML code, which, paired with a simple PHP script, sends me an e-mail with details entered: <form method="post" name="myemailform" action="FormToEmail.php"> <center> <p> <label>Your Full Name:</label> <input name="name" type="text" id="SNN" size="50"><br /> <label>E-Mail Address:</label> <input name="e-mail" type="text" id="e-mail" size="51"><br /> <label>Payment Preference:</label> <input type="checkbox" name="yearly" id="yearly" /> <label for="yearly">$60 Once for One Year</label> <input type="checkbox" name="monthly" id="mointhly" /> <label for="monthly">$5 a Month, For One Year</label> <br /> <label for="paymeth">Payment Method</label> <select name="paymeth" id="paymeth"> <option value="1">Please Select One</option> <option value="cash">Cash</option> <option value="check">Check</option> <option value="cc">Credit Card</option> <option value="mo">Money Order</option> <option value="pp">PayPal</option> </select> <br /> <br /><br /> <center>Click Below to Submit Your Request</center> <center><input type="submit" name="submit" id="submit" value="Submit"> </center></form> What I'd like to do, though, is have it so if the user chooses "Credit Card" or "Paypal", upon clicking submit the e-mail is still generated, but a _blank is opened to our Paypal page. I have no idea how to do this. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hello All, I'm creating a form which has got several parts, divided by tables, which are radio buttons, check boxes etc. All the radio button tables work well with the exception of one where it lets you choose all three options or two, as if they were checkboxes. The code is: PHP Code: <div class="roundedcornrboxorange"> <div class="roundedcornrtoporange"><div></div></div> <div class="roundedcornrcontentorange"> <table width="100%"> <tr> <td colspan="3"><h3>Which level do you think you're currently are?</h3></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="30%"><input type="radio" name="level[beginner]" id="beginner" value="1"/> Beginner</td> <td width="30%"><input type="radio" name="level[intermediate]" id="intermediate" value="1"/> Intermediate</td> <td width="30%"><input type="radio" name="level[advanced]" id="advanced" value="1"/> Advanced</td> </tr> </table> </div> <div class="roundedcornrbottomorange"><div></div></div> </div> Does anyone have an idea what could be going wrong? The css (in case it helps) is: PHP Code: .roundedcornrboxorange { margin: 5px 0 0 0; width: 800px; clear: both; background: #ff7b06 url(../images/roundedcornr190406grad.gif) repeat-x top left; } .roundedcornrtoporange div { background: url(../images/roundedcornr190406tl.gif) no-repeat top left; } .roundedcornrtoporange { background: transparent url(../images/roundedcornr190406tr.gif) no-repeat top right; } .roundedcornrbottomorange div { background: url(../images/roundedcornr190406bl.gif) no-repeat bottom left; } .roundedcornrbottomorange { background: transparent url(../images/roundedcornr190406br.gif) no-repeat bottom right; } .roundedcornrtoporange div, .roundedcornrtoporange, .roundedcornrbottomorange div, .roundedcornrbottomorange { width: 100%; height: 10px; font-size: 1px; } .roundedcornrcontentorange { margin: 0 10px; } Many thanks in advance Hi All, I've been asked to make some hyperlinks that automatically select items in a drop down menu in a contact form. Is this possible if so, how is it done Thanks in advance Bluestreak When you create a select form with a default size or a size of 1, the options (once you expand the form out by clicking it) that are moused over will be highlighted. I want that same effect on a select form with a size of 30. I imagine the solution lies in some javascript onmouseover function, but I couldn't find anything. Help?

Hi, how can I put in a drop down menu that slides down or across from a regular text link in html? Then, when selecting one of the options, I would like it to automatically take the visitor to the page option selected? I don't want a drop down menu and then hit 'Go' type mechanism, just a slide and click type thing. i.e when the link is clicked on it would reveal a drop down list that says.. Hotel Car Rental Airport Car Park Insurance and would then link directly to the appropriate page. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I have a page that displays 40 pictures (of paintings) with a short description of each. I am trying to think of a way to enable a user to add whichever paintings they want to a list. Basically, so they do not have to scroll through the whole page to view specific paintings. I thought about converting the page from XHTML to ASP.Net and then addign checkboxes under each picture. I thought about using C# to get a list of the checkboxes checked. How do I then display a new page (or somewhere on the same page) with only the selected graphics? Any ideas would be appreciated. I am a newbie at web programming. Thank you! Marc |
