JavaScript - Attach Onclick Event To Default Dropdownlist Value
i have a dropdownlist with some values,ex: One, Two and Three; One being the default value selected on load of dropdown list.
When I select Two or Three, there is onselectedchange event fired and I can write custom code in handler. But I also want to do some custom handling when page is loaded and user justs clicks on default value of "One". I want to take an action when user clicks on default value, "One" of dropdwn. any suggestions/ideas? Similar TutorialsHi forum, I am trying to attach an event to a dynamically produced button, and then use stopPropagation and preventDefault. Code: function chapter12_nodeOne() { //create an element var element = document.createElement('input'); //set some attributes element.setAttribute('type', 'button'); element.setAttribute('value', 'submit'); element.setAttribute('id', 'myBtn'); //appendd the element into a DIV document.getElementById('myDiv').appendChild(element); //uses EventUtil to attach an event listener EventUtil.addHandler(element, 'click', function() { alert('event attached'); }); var flag = confirm('prevent default behavior of button?'); if (flag) { var el = document.getElementById('myBtn');/////////////////////////(1) var ev = el.onclick; } } var EventUtil = { addHandler: function(element, type, handler) { //check if the element and the browser support DOM Level 2 event attachment //if the user is not browsing with IE if (element.addEventListener) { element.addEventListener(type, handler, false); } //if user is browsing with IE else if (element.attachEvent) { element.attachEvent("on" + type, handler); } //if user is using a browser that only supports DOM Level 0 event attachment else { element["on" + type] = handler; } }, removeHandler: function(element, type, handler) { //check if the element and the browser support DOM Level 2 event attachment //if the user is not browsing with IE if (element.removeEventListener) { element.removeEventListener(type, handler, false); } //if user is browsing with IE else if (element.detachEvent) { element.detachEvent("on" + type, handler); } //if user is using a browser that only supports DOM Level 0 event attachment else { element["on" + type] = null; } } }; But when debugging I see under el on the line marked with (1) that the onclick event is null. What am I doing wrong?! PS:the event is attached, when I click on the button I get an alert message I am having trouble with some JavaScript that is supposed to add some Google Analytics tracking parameters to "cross-domain" links (used to auto append tracking info across multiple domains as a way of sharing the Google cookie info). I have my code kind of working at this point except the default event (the normal href link) is not stopping. Instead my new event (the link plus Google parameters) fires off and is immediately replaced by the default (no parameters) event. For links that open in a new window, two windows open, one the standard link and one with the intended parameters. I am using a return false; on each link type but it is not doing anything. Any ideas how I can stop the default event? Code: Code: //Last Updated 5/10/12 /*Regex list of on-site domains, pipe and backslash delimited. */ var wa_onsiteDomains = /mydomain\.com|my2nddomain\.com|my3rddomain\.com|javascript/i; /*Used to unobtrusivly add events to objects*/ function unobtrusiveAddEvent (element,event,fn) { var old = (element[event]) ? element[event] : function () {}; element[event] = function () {fn(); old();}; } function wa_crossDomainLink(i) { return function () { var thisLink = decodeURI(wa_links[i]); var thisLinkTarget = wa_links[i].target; if (typeof(_gaq) == "object") { if(thisLinkTarget == "_blank") { var wa_myTracker=_gat._getTrackerByName(); var wa_fullUrl = wa_myTracker._getLinkerUrl(thisLink); window.open(wa_fullUrl); return false; } else { _gaq.push(['_link', thisLink]); return false; } } }; } var wa_links = document.links; if ( wa_links ){ for(var i=0; i<wa_links.length; i++) { if( wa_links[i].href.match(wa_onsiteDomains) && !wa_links[i].href.match(location.hostname)){ unobtrusiveAddEvent( wa_links[i], 'onclick' , wa_crossDomainLink(i)); } } } Note, the code above resides in a separate js file and is called at the bottom of every page. Thanks! I am dynamically appending an img to the inner HTML of an element, to add in help in the form of a clickable icon next to select elements. When the img is added to an anchor the image of course becomes part of the link, and clicking the image invokes the anchor's action. The img has an onclick handler which triggers the dynamic help pop-up. My problem is that I can't seem to block the default anchor action, and thus the anchor is invoked also. The img onclick handler is called before the anchor event is processed (an alert popup will block the anchor's execution until the alert is dismissed), but returning false from it does not block the anchor's action. Any suggestions? I can move the img element to be a peer of the anchor element instead of a child, but I would like a programmatic fix instead of changing the way it interacts with the DOM if possible. Thanks. Hi, New to javascript. Doing web page with ASP/VB.NET. Have text boxes for UI on page. Two command buttons - Submit (for db update) and Cancel. I need the Cancel button to prompt the user to verify cancellation. Need OK/Cancel buttons on alert. If user selects Cancel-no action. If user selects OK then I want the text boxes cleared of user text input and focus returned to first text box. I think this may be the code but do not know how to apply it. function Clear() { var res=window.confirm("Please confirm cancellation-text boxes will be cleared"); if(res==true) { document.getElementById("StrtDte").value=""; document.getElementById("EndDte").value=""; document.getElementById("txtProjRegHrsAl").value=""; document.getElementById("txtProjOTHrsAl").value=""; document.getElementById("ddlRAS").focus(); } } Is this code valid or invalid for the events I need? How do I set it to fire when user clicks the ASP Cancel button? Thanks, John Hello forum, My name is juan and recently started html programming. I have a web page with a drop box with the name of states. Code: <option value="">Alabama</option> <option value="">Alaska</option> I can add a onclick="code here" to the tag so that when the drop box alabama is selected it triggers the onclick event. Im using Ibox in order to have a image of the state open. Code: <a href="images/large/image_1b.jpg" rel="ibox" title="alabama at 1024x450!"><img src="images/small/image_1.jpg" alt=""/></a> the above is a <a> link tag correct? How do I go bout adding the above code into the onclick event? I've got a checkbox that, when clicked, displays new text inputs. However, when I "uncheck" the box, the fields don't disappear unless I reload the entire page. What code can I add to reset the box to null when it is unchecked? Here's the function code I have: Code: <script> function showUserReg() { document.getElementById("userReg").style.display = "inline"; } </script> And here's the inline code: Code: <input type="checkbox" name="additional" value="userRegister" onclick="showUserReg()"/> Yes! Register me now!<br/> <span id = "userReg" style="display:none"> <table class="nobord" align="center"> <tr> <td>Choose a username:</td> <td><input type="text" name="username" size="35"/></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Choose a password:</td> <td><input type="password" name="password" size="35" maxlength="20"/></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Confirm password:<font color="red">*</font></td> <td><input type="password" name="password" size="35" maxlength="20"/></td> </tr> </table> </span> Thanks for any help. Hi, I am trying to get my onclick event to handle both of the function below. I want the event to return false (stop executing) if any of the two functions return false. Here is my code: Code: function isNumeric(elem, helperMsg){ var numericExpression = /[0-9]+/; if(!elem.value.match(numericExpression)){ SaveRecord(); return true; }else{ alert("You cannot enter numbers in the Comments field."); return false; } } function lengthRestriction(elem, min, max){ var x = elem.value; if(x.length >= min && x.length <= max){ SaveRecord(); }else{ alert("Please enter between " +min+ " and " +max+ " characters in the Issue Number field"); } } Please help me. Thank you. hi, i need to be able to take the values from two text boxes and change the location of a sprite on my canvas, i've searched the internet and it doesnt really explain how to do it for me. here is my code: x: <input type="text" name="x" id="x"/><br /> y: <input type="text" name:"y" id="y"/><br /> <input type="submit" value="Submit" onClick="ChangeCo()" /><br /> function ChangeCo() { } and i need the function to take the x and y values from the text boxes and change the values of my variables: var block_x; var block_y; block_x = 290; block_y = 70; Thankyou in advance I was trying to help someone on another forum and seem to have run into a brick wall. The main problem that has got me stumped at the moment is that clicking on the images in the 1st tab work fine. However the subsequent tab selections and clicks do not change the "bigImage" correctly (not at all). Perhaps some other more experienced forum members can identify what I doing wrong at this time. I believe it is in my set-up of the onclick events in the "onload=" section, but I not the best at this event stuff yet!

Code: <li id='1tab_1a' class='selected'><a id='1link_1a' title="Customer Info Screen"><span >Customer Info</span></a></li> <li id='1tab_1b' ><a id='1link_1b' title="Order Detail" ><span>Order</span></a></li> <li id='1tab_1c' ><a id='1link_1c' title="Phone Detail" ><span>Phone: 7093521232</span></a></li> For example when the Customer Info tab is selected I would like the tooltips to be like above but when Order is the tab selected I would like the tooltip to say Customer Info Detail, Order Detail Screen, and Phone Detail. How could I use an onclick event to control what tooltip is being displayed depending on which tab is selected? I have about 20 sets of customer info and sometimes not everyone contains all of the tabs and I would also like to be able to add more customers. I'm having an issue where a programmatic click event is not behaving the same way the cursor click event is. A cursor click returns the correct object from GetObject(). The programmatic click triggered by a USB device is returning undefined from GetObject(). How can this be resolved? Edit: It appears that it does not recognize eval(document.getElementById(gButtonList[gButtonId])).onclick(); as an event. Why is this? How can I get it to recognize it? Edit2: Resolved it myself. See green text below. TestPage.htm: Code: <script language="JavaScript" src="../bin/USBHelperFile.js"></script> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript"> function BuildButtons() { for (var i = 0; i < testArray.length; i++) { // Create Div [Buttons created programmatically] var divNode = document.createElement('div'); divNode.id = 'div' + i; divNode.onclick= ClickFunction; etc... } } function ClickFuntion(nodeButtonNum) { alert(GetObject()); Returns the index for a cursor click. Returns undefined for the programmatic click triggered by the USB device } function GetObject() { var node = event.srcElement; return node; } </script> USBHelperFile.js: Code: This JS file works with a USB hardware device that can navigate through divs and click them when they have focus. function HelperFunction(keyCommand) { switch (keyCommand) { case: "click": // eval(document.getElementById(gButtonList[gButtonId])).onclick(); var target = eval(document.getElementById(gButtonList[gButtonId])); target.fireEvent("onclick"); break; } } I assum the following html code: <div id="id1" onclick="click()">A<div> <div id="id2" onclick="click()">B<div> Do you know how to get ID = id2 when I onclick on A? here the deal ,,I've solved all but this problem in my script i have my page setup with 1 iframe and the main html the code below is exactly how the page will show up in the iframe, you can copy and paste the whole thing and save it as a htm file to view if needed.. I need a way to catch the clicks that happen within the iframe but from the main section of the page..heres why! this is inserted at the top of the page if(top.location==self.location){top.location="RefESI_search.asp";} just above top.document.reset.RefCat.value= I can get the page to load even with this in the iframes ..but for the purposes of this i left it out so the page would load ok for anyone thats gonna try and help . theres only 2 links in the code.. hopefully whatever will hopefully solve this problem will be able to tell which links were clicked,and i can can point them to the apropriate links.

I'm trying to figure out a way to put this in all js code with the onclick event handlers and the parameters. I have 3 links that switch the style of my page. Right now I have them working with inline event handlers. Here are my code snippets below. HTML: Code: <head> <link rel="stylesheet" href="style1.css" type="text/css" title="style1"/> <link rel="alternate stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style2.css" title="style2" /> <link rel="alternate stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style3.css" title="style3" /> </head> <div class="styleLinks"> <a href="#" id="style1" onclick="setStyleSheets('style1'); return false;">Style 1</a> <a href="#" id="style2" onclick="setStyleSheets('style2'); return false;">Style 2</a> <a href="#" id="style3" onclick="setStyleSheets('style3'); return false;">Style 3</a> </div> JS: Code: function setStyleSheets(title) { //set styles and set cookie var i; var attribute; var today = new Date(); var expDate = new Date(today.getTime() + 7*24*60*60*1000); var styleSelected = ""; if (title=="style2"){ styleSelected = "style2"; } else if (title=="style3"){ styleSelected = "style3"; } for(i=0; (attribute = document.getElementsByTagName("link")[i]); i++) { if(attribute.getAttribute("rel").indexOf("style") != -1 && attribute.getAttribute("title")) { attribute.disabled = true; if(attribute.getAttribute("title") == title) attribute.disabled = false; SetCookie ('style', styleSelected, expDate, "/"); } } } The following coding works in Konqueror 3.5.10 on Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS but not on Firefox 3.0.10 Linux/3.5.7 XP, Opera 10.10 Linux or IE8 XP. I can't see why but it may be to do with the recursion (showtable calls onclick calls addit which calls showtable ...). Somehow it is not seeing the addit routine the second time round. It is meant just to add a line. Eventually it needs to be a complex table but this is for illustration. There are other ways to solve this but this would be the simplest - if it worked! What happens is that one line is added OK but then it chokes. This is what makes me think it is the recursion but I can't see otherwise how to make it write the updated text. I realise I should have a document.close() in it as well and I have tried adding <![CDATA[ ... ]]> as well. Other than in Konqueror, it gives an error message saying object not found (in IE8) or more explicitly: Code: function onclick(event){ addit(4); } with 'addit is not defined' in Firebug. In Konqueror it works sweetly. Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml' xml:lang='en' lang='en'> <head> <script language='Javascript' type='text/javascript'> if(typeof(sections) == 'undefined'){ var sections=['Text 0','Text 1','Text 2']; } function addit(ilocal){ sections.splice(sections.length,0,'Text '+ilocal); showtable(); } function showtable(){ var i,j,ip1; for(i=0;i<sections.length;i++){ ip1=i+1; document.write('Section ',i,': ',sections[i],'<br>'); } document.write("<input type='button' value='Add' onClick='addit(",ip1,")' /><br>"); for(j=0;j<sections.length;j++){document.write(sections[j]," ");} } </script> </head><body> <script language='Javascript' type='text/javascript'> showtable(); </script> </body> </html> Clues would be very much appreciated - my baldness coefficient is increasing daily! I have identical code in my index that works, so I'm just guessing the error is somewhere else, I know IE is not the best target to aim for - but I really want this to work in the windows default browser.... Here is the php page... PHP Code: <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> Family Home Page </TITLE> <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" SRC="AddFamilyMemeber.js"> </SCRIPT> </HEAD> <BODY> <TABLE> <TR> <TD>Father:</TD> <TD> <SELECT ID="Father"> <?PHP $con=mysql_connect("localhost","XXXX","XXXX"); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect: '.mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db("XXXX",$con); $result=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM FamilyMembers"); while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "<OPTION VALUE=\"".$row['ID']."\">".$row['FirstName']." ".$row['MiddleName']." ".$row['LastName']."</OPTION>"; echo "<BR/>\n"; } mysql_close($con); ?> </SELECT> </TD> </TR> <TR> <TD>Mother:</TD> <TD> <SELECT ID="Mother"> <?PHP $con=mysql_connect("localhost","XXXX","XXXX"); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect: '.mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db("XXXX",$con); $result=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM FamilyMembers"); while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "<OPTION VALUE=\"".$row['ID']."\">".$row['FirstName']." ".$row['MiddleName']." ".$row['LastName']."</OPTION>"; echo "<BR/>\n"; } mysql_close($con); ?> </SELECT> <TD> </TR> <TR> <TD>FirstName:</TD> <TD><INPUT TYPE="text" ID="FirstName"/></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD>MiddleName:</TD> <TD><INPUT TYPE="text" ID="MiddleName"/></TD> </TR> <TR> <TD>LastName:</TD> <TD><INPUT TYPE="text" ID="LastName"/></TD> </TR> </TABLE> <BUTTON TYPE="button" ONCLICK="Submit()">Submit</BUTTON> <BUTTON TYPE="button" ONCLICK="Abort()">Abort</BUTTON> </BODY> </HTML> and here is the javascript that works in the index but not here... Code: function Abort() { document.location="AddFamilyMember.php"; }; When I load the page everything looks ok, but click on the abort button, and all that happens is that the little error symbol pops in the lower left of IE. The names of the two files are "AddFamilyMember.php" and "AddFamilyMember.js". Sorry, but I honestly can't see where the problem is.... |
