HTML - Using Images As Form Select Options?
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. Similar TutorialsI 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!!! 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. 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!" hi everyone, ok heres my problem that is bugging me.

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!! Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance I would like to know how to create a mini form of two pull down boxes so that when the two selections have been made and submitted it returns back a designated page or picture. For example I want to build a simple method to show routes of an office building. Pulldown box 1 would be the office number you want to start from, and pulldown box two would be the office you want to get to. when you click submit it would pull up either a page or picture which contains the corrrect floor plan and route. I feel like this should not be too hard as I don't need anything very flashy. I just don't know how to start it. If anyone knows of something open source already created to do this I would be open to that too. Thanks in advance for any assistence you can give.

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 HTML 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. 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? I work in a call centre responsible for maintaining a database of customer's details. When this goes wrong it is important that we have an effective way to pass customer complaints onto the complaints team. The existing procedure is to compose an email which contains the customers name, what they are complaining about and a few other key details. we also include a screen print of the application used to update the customer records which preserves the state of the customers record when the complaint was logged. This is a vital part of the procedure (very helpful info for ascertaining blame etc.) People currently miss out a lot of details from there emails and I have been asked to make a web based form to capture all this information and generate an automatic php email to the complaints team when the form is submitted. I have got this bit nailed... all that eludes me is the screen prints of the application. My manager was convinced you could ctrl+v the screenprint into the textarea on the form but I was sceptical of this idea and obviously it didn't work. How can I attach images to the form and send them as attachments when the form is submitted? |
