HTML - Option Group Options
Hi All!
I'm using the Option Group/ optgroup/ Select features within a form and would like to initially display all options without having to click the arrow button to "reveal" the selections. I can't seem to find the option to allow this. Of course I can switch to a hyperlinked list, but have made extensive Option Group and would like to continue to use them. Thanks in advance!! Similar TutorialsHow do I put an image on a Yahoo group home page and make it go all the way across the screen? What`s the html code to do this? Hey folks - Everywhere I've read states that if I give a series of checkboxes the same name, then upon hitting submit, I will get a comma separated list of the values. But, that just isn't working for me. I have this code : Code: <html><body> <form method="get"> <input name="input" size="30" maxlength="100" id="searchbox" value="test" /><br /> <input type="checkbox" name="referBy" value="td"/> Test driven a vehicle<br/> <input type="checkbox" name="referBy" value="dlr"/> Visited an autotmotive dealer<br/> <input type="checkbox" name="referBy" value="veh"/> Purchased/Leased a vehicle<br/> <input type="checkbox" name="referBy" value="ins"/> Purchased automobile insurance<br/> <input type="submit" value="Submit"/> </form> </body> </html> But, it results in this for the URL - ...../s_r2.htm?input=test&referBy=td&referBy=dlr Any thoughts Maybe I'm missing a step or a setting Syl I'm about to try and code this page. Basically, it is a group of of linked images. I want to have the images open in lightbox 2.0 but I also want them to have a roll over element. I know both features require javascript, so can they both work together? (stupid question?) I know the scripts have to go in the head of the page. Lets say the images are as follows work1_off.jpg work1_on.jpg work2_off.jpg work2_on.jpg work3_off.jpg work3_on.jpg work4_off.jpg work4_on.jpg work5_off.jpg work5_on.jpg work6_off.jpg work6_on.jpg work7_off.jpg work7_on.jpg work8_off.jpg work8_on.jpg work9_off.jpg work9_on.jpg what might the tags look like? hi i have a group of radio buttons generated dynamically and i want to disable user changing his choice after selecting one! i want to disable the group of radios or lock the first choice somehow! apologize me for my poor eng! tanx Hi I have a web form that, on submission populates a mySQL database through PHP. Each question on the form can have up to 5 different answers. What I am trying to achieve, either through radio groups or drop-down menus is to have unique values for each number so effectively ranking them. Example: Rank your favourite colours from these: Red [1][2][3][4][5] Blue [1][2][3][4][5] Green [1][2][3][4][5] White [1][2][3][4][5] Orange [1][2][3][4][5] Now for each one, I only want the user to select a UNIQUE value so that the same two numbers cannot be submitted. On submission there must be a 1,2,3,4 & 5 (ie with no two questions having the same number) Scratching my head on this one. Any help would be most welcome. Thanks So I have a radio group within a form. Specifically, here is my code: HTML Code: <table> <tr> <td><label> <input type="radio" name="question_1" value="Average" id="question_1_0" /> Average</label></td> <td><label> <input type="radio" name="question_1" value="Large" id="question_1_1" /> Large</label></td> <td><label> <input type="radio" name="question_1" value="Gigantic" id="question_1_2" /> Gigantic!</label></td> <td><label> <input type="radio" name="question_1" value="Getting_larger" id="question_1_3" /> It's Getting Larger...</label></td> </tr> </table> So I need to set an initially selected on this radio group. How do I do that? Thanks! Hi, I am working in Web Application Designer in SAP and it uses XHTML as the language for creating the web items. I have a toggle button which I am able to link with a web item and use the show/hide option. Can any one tell me if I can include another web item to the same toggle button and use it to hide both the Analysis items? <bi:BUTTON_GROUP_ITEM name="BUTTON_GROUP_ITEM_1" designheight="70" designwidth="300" > <bi:BUTTON_LIST type="ORDEREDLIST" > <bi:BUTTON type="COMPOSITE" index="1" > <bi:CAPTION value="Show value" /> <bi:ACTION type="CHOICE" value="INSTRUCTION" > <bi:INSTRUCTION > <bi:SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS > <bi:cmd_item_parameters type="TEXT_ITEM" > <bi:VISIBILITY value="VISIBLE" /> </bi:cmd_item_parameters> <bi:TARGET_ITEM_REF value="TEXT_ITEM_1" /> </bi:SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS> </bi:INSTRUCTION> </bi:ACTION> </bi:BUTTON> I want to add <bi:cmd_item_parameters type="ANALYSIS_ITEM" > <bi:VISIBILITY value="VISIBLE" /> </bi:cmd_item_parameters> <bi:TARGET_ITEM_REF value="ANALYSIS_ITEM_1" /> To the same Button group. Any insight into how I should combine the instructions to the same button group? ello everyone. I'm looking for a new way to display information effectively and neatly on my website. I have looked into tables ( which I am not a fan of ), also Javascript displaying clickable tabs allowing information to be displayed when tabs are clicked. My website is animal related so i need to be able to display somewhat like shown below; Does anyone have any other ideas of how I could display this information without making my website look rubbish? Thanks Jake Hi All, I would like to create a drop down box that contains number 1-50. I know I can do this using the following <option value="1">1</option> <option value="2">2</option> Can someone tell me a method for doing his a better way rather than having 50 option values? p.s is the speaking advert at the bottom of this forum the most annoying thing ever. Does nothing for me as a new site visitors other than make me want to leave. I have turned the sound off now but its real pants. Thanks all Kind Regards wedmonds I have a menu bar, viewable at http://muskmagazine.com/february/index.html, where I want some columns not to have a hyperlink but to keep the default cursor. I have tried not including the href but this then changes the cursor from default. Not being to savvy with HTML I could do with some help. Thanks Justin Sample menu code: <li><a href="#">about us</a> <ul> <li><a href="pressrelease.html">press releases</a> <li><a href="letterstoeditor.html">letters to the editor</a> <li><a href="newsletter.html">newsletter</a> <li><a href="contact.html">contact</a> <li><a href="aboutus.html">mission statement</a> </ul> </li> css code: http://muskmagazine.com/february/menu/fsmenu.css Hello All! Is there a way to specify "no-indent" on the <optgroup> tag. When using this tag, all the options get indented and it wastes a lot of space on the screen. Any ideas would be great. Example: <select name="blah"> <optgroup label="hello"> <option style="color: #ff0000" value="test">test</option </optgroup> </select> as you can see, the style tag works for color, but I can't find any css that will put the indent to zero. thanks. Hi, Is it possible in HTML to have the list box <select >, with some of the option with different Font , may be just BOLD or italic will do my job. This is because i want to separate some option with others. Like: tableName1 ColumnName1 ColumnName2 ColumnName3 tableName2 ColumnName1 ColumnName2 ColumnName3 I want to display these in LIST box, it will be good if tablename are in BOLD or in different Font. Also i have to make them unclickable. Right Now i am doing this via: but this approach is not looking good Code: function selectionChange( selectElementID ){ if ( document.getElementById( selectElementID ) ) { var selectBox = document.getElementById( selectElementID ) ; if ( selectBox.options[ selectBox.selectedIndex ].value == "unSelectable" ){ alert ( "Select any Table, not the Schema " ); selectBox.selectedIndex = -1; } }else{ alert ( "Debug: check the code given id: '" + selectElementID + "' is not valid." ); } } Thanks Rakesh Juyal Hi guys, Can someone please help me with what to do with my forms; I have a form built that when someone clicks submit I want a number of actions to occur: - The information they provided to be emailed to me somehow - A message to pop up saying that the form was successfully submitted. - And to redirect them back to my home page. How do I do this?? What code do I need to use?? And is there some way that I can get the filled out form emailed to me without them having to send it?? (i.e. not using "mailto") Any help here would be really appreciated. Thanks, TroubleShooter..."yeah right!" I have a SELECT selection list (standard code), in a form which is 200px wide (located in the sidebar of a web page). Some of the OPTION elements in the list can be quite long. In FF, this isn't a problem as when you click on the dropdown arrow, the dropdown box is widened so each option text can be seen fully. But in IE, the dropdown box is limited to 200px wide, so you can't fully see some of the options. Is there any way to solve so you can fully see the options in IE? Thanks, James I have a select option that I want to categorize the values for. I want a space (if possible) between the categories and I want to show the category heading before the options for each category. The "value" for the non-heading options is a unique id that I get from an array taken from a database. I am populating the select using an asp for loop. Here is an example: Code: <select> <%For i = 0 to UBound(Controls, 2) - 1)%> <option value="<%=Controls(0, i)%>"><%=Controls(1, i)%></option> <%Next%> </select> Any idea on how I can do this? Thanks a ton in advance!!! 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 don't have access to any kind of server side scripting. The file I am making has to be able to run on a desktop other than the scripting for the search functions. I have a few sites that I am incorporating their search function into the HTML doc. It's a time saver but I am only having 1 hiccup. The design. I was not aware on how to incorporate into a radio button and/or drop down to search each site separately. Some of them require hidden fields that make this a challenge anyhow. I'm not sure how to design the page in order to make this work fluently. I currently have a top frame with the navigation bar and the bottom frame as the main window. When a user clicks the link, it will load another top frame doc with the nav bar and a search window for that site clicked on. So when the user types in the information, it submits it to the site and shows the results on the main frame. If they click another link, it displays a search box for that site, and same thing. However, I was wondering if there was a cleaner way of doing this? I am really interested in keeping a navigation bar but it looks cluttered with a search bar. I'm having to create a separate page for each search bar and add the navigation bar to each one. Then if something changes with the nav bar, I have to go back and fix each page. I'd really be happy to only need one nav bar. My goal would be to figure a way to keep a navigation bar, clean up the page, and keep each search function handy. I could create a 3rd frame but I think it would feel more cluttered. Here is the menu bar. Of course, this is just an example. "Form" is name of top frame. Code: <ul class="menu"> <li><a href="choose.htm" class="active"><Span>Home</span></a></li> <li><a href="Tool.htm" target="form" onClick="top.body.location='www.example.com/sitewheresearchislocated';"><Span> etc.... </ul> And here is the frame page. Code: <frameset rows="80, 1*"> <frame frameborder=0 scrolling="no" noresize="noresize" src="choose.htm" name="form" framespacing="0" border="0"> <frame frameborder=0 noresize="noresize" src="main.htm" name="body" framespacing="0" border="0"> </frameset> hi everyone, ok heres my problem that is bugging me. I have a ecommerce website that im setting up and it comes with a default search feature.

The second problem is if someone managed to get this form to work, would it search for "1996JUN23" or "1996 JUN 23". The reason i ask this is my products descriptions say "this single was released on 23 June 1996" I hope ive made all the above clear!!

I have a long list (say, 10,000) to be populated in the html select (Multiple with size, say 10 visible at a time) control. I don't want to populate all the items initially. Hence, Initially, I will load top 100 items and whenever user scrolls down and reaches the bottom of the list (say, after crossing 85th item), I want to populate the next 100 items (101th to 200th). I am using javascript to populate the options. The question is: 1. How to identify that the user is reaching the bottom of the control? Is there any way to identify whether a option is visible or not to the user? Thanks in advance, R. Amirdha Gopal. |
