Hey all, I've been looking all over the net for a tutorail about this, but I can't seem to find one. What I'm trying to do is make a drop-down box where you can select an option, press a submit button, and it'll open up a new window *or tab for firefox users* pertaining to that information, such as a site that I choose to link to it. This is the code I'm using for my option box <div align="left"> <select name="xfer" size="1" style="color:000000; background-color:226622; font-family:trebuchet ms; font-size:11px; border:thin solid "ffffff;> <option></option> </select> </div></form> I'm totally stumped here. Any help would be greatly appreciated! -Cheers, Billy Link Mysterious yellow dots are appearing through my slideshow images in IE - works fine in all other browsers. Only appearing in darkest blacks - standard jpg saved images. An ideas gratefully received Hello Everyone, I have two pairs of jsp + servlet. The first jsp asks user to select an option from the drop down box and then on the click of submit button, passes this info to another servlet, who processes the data from db based on the input and displays the requested data in a table using second jsp page. My code is working but I'm trying to make my code look more appealing. Here is what the problem is: 1. The first page just has two drop down boxes with rest of the page blank. 2. Once the user selects the choice from first page, second page is displayed which does not anymore display what user chose in the drop down. What I want: is that initially the first page contains only drop down but as soon as the user hits the submit button, instead of loading a whole new page, the requested data is displayed right below the drop down boxes. Will this require to combine two jsp pages into one.....if yes, how do I make the table disappear the first time until some input is chosen. I know this is very basic html but as this is my first time, will appreciate the help. Thanks. Hey all! I'm trying to set a predefined value in a <select> menu, that is to say, I want something to be highlighted before the user does anything. I've tried the following: <select name="test" size="2" value="x"> <option>x</option><option>y</option> </select> This does not work. Any advice would be great! Thanks for your time.

My question is how do I change this so that the first "option" has no action when chosen and then "go" is clicked.

Basically the user would select a dept and without refreshing or opening a new page the information would appear below. I have seen this before using a database but is there a way to do it without? Hello All, I am new to coding and looking to self teach myself with the help of this forum so I can design my own web site. I am looking for the best solution for searching a database. The database will for example contain USA States and Cities with the final result being an item or thing etc. that the search criteria points to. Let's say for example I want to know where all the Dentists are in the State of Maryland. I found this example below and It creates the option to choose a state however how do you make it accept your choice once chosen and go to the next webpage for the next lookup or whatever you decide to have it do next. I guess what I am asking is how do you make a Search or Go button take you to your drop down search criteria. <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html><head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=unicode"> <meta content="MSHTML 6.00.2900.3429" name="GENERATOR"></head> <body><select name="state" size="1"> <option value="NA" selected="">Select A State</option> <option value="Blank">--------------------</option> <option value="AL">Alabama</option> <option value="AK">Alaska</option> <option value="AZ">Arizona</option> <option value="AR">Arkansas</option> <option value="CA">California</option> </select> </body></html> Thanks for any assistance...

But the problem is, the drop down menu cant all bee seen when it drops over the main frame. Does anyone know a solution to this problem, i tried using an Iframe instead of normal frames, but that leaves a big gap between the end of the drop down menu and the start of the information. I have also tried using the <div> tags this also didnt help, i was wondering if there is a way to set the order in which the frames are displayed,so the navigation frame is displayed over the main frame. Any help would be great. Thanks for your time. mmarab. Id like to do a drop down menu similar to there's... is there any simple way of doing this?! |
