JavaScript - Get Value Not Passing To Second Dropdown In Ie 6 ??
<!-- *** NOTE:*** I EDITED THIS SCRIPT WITH YOUR SUGGESTION *** -->
<!-- *** THE SCRIPT IS STILL NOT WORKING *** --> ALSO: Would the second drop down need to be in <?php tags - or is it being populated with just "java" <!-- *** THE FIRST DROPDOWN GETS THE DATA FROM (db)qw_groups BUT DOES NOT "@GET" and pass the value to qw_groupitems *** --> <!-- *** first dropdown value=$group[id] *** --> <!-- *** Then second dropdown should populate with: $q = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM qw_groupitems WHERE GroupId ='$groups'"); *** --> <!-- *** the .php code listed below, the page is: csa_ajax.php *** --> <script type="text/javascript"> var request = false; /*@cc_on @*/ /*@if (@_jscript_version >= 5) try { request = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP"); } catch (e) { try { request = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } catch (e2) { request = false; } } @end @*/ if (!request && typeof XMLHttpRequest != 'undefined') { request = new XMLHttpRequest(); } function fillSelect(groups) { var url = "csa_ajax.php?groups=" + escape(groups); request.open("GET", url, true); request.onreadystatechange = go; request.send(null); } function go() { if (request.readyState == 4) { if (request.status == 200) { var response = request.responseText; var list=document.getElementById("groupitems"); var items=response.split('|'); for (var i=1; i<items.length; i++ ) { var x = document.createElement('option'); var y = items[i]; x.text = x.value = y; list.appendChild(x); } } } } function initCs() { var groups=document.getElementById('groups'); groups.onchange=function() { if(this.value!="") { var list=document.getElementById("groupitems"); while (list.childNodes[0]) { list.removeChild(list.childNodes[0]) } fillSelect(this.value); } } fillSelect(groups.value); } window.onload=initCs; </script> <form method="post" action="#"> <p><label>groups: <select id="groups" name="groups"> <?php require_once("includes/connect.php"); $mysql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM qw_groups"); while($group=mysql_fetch_assoc($mysql)){ echo "<option value='$group[id]'>$group[GroupName]</option>"; } echo "</select>"; ?> </label> <label>GroupItems: <select id='groupitems' name='groupitems'> <option> == Select Group== </option> </select></label></p> </form> <!-- *** HERE IS THE PHP PAGE csa_ajax.php ***--> <?php require_once("includes/connect.php"); $groups=@$_GET['groups']; $q = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM qw_groupitems WHERE GroupId ='$groups'"); while ($r = mysql_fetch_assoc($q)){ echo "|".$r['GroupId']; } } ?> Similar TutorialsSo i have a form with fields (30+), and about 5 of them are fields that need to pass into my dropdown (actually a dynmaic dropdown, select SOURCE, then whatever source u select it'll show options that are mysql source=$source), so it can go into my mysql query, and filter out the best results. (i.e date_of_birth, min_credits, state, etc). Needs to be done without submitting, hence javascript. Im echo'ing my query and its saying the variables i'm trying to pass are UNDEFINED. Am I not passing the vars correctly? do i need to prep the vars to "grab" them in the current field? this is what i have in my <head> Code: <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> function getXMLHTTP() { //fuction to return the xml http object var xmlhttp=false; try{ xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); } catch(e) { try{ xmlhttp= new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } catch(e){ try{ xmlhttp = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP"); } catch(e1){ xmlhttp=false; } } } return xmlhttp; } function getSchool(id,hs_grad_year,dob_day,dob_month,dob_year,min_credits,state) { var strURL="findSchool.php?source="+id+"&hs_grad_year="+hs_grad_year+"&dob_day="+dob_day+"&dob_month="+dob_month+"&dob_year="+dob_year+"&min_credits="+min_credits+"&state="+state; var req = getXMLHTTP(); if (req) { req.onreadystatechange = function() { if (req.readyState == 4) { // only if "OK" if (req.status == 200) { document.getElementById('schooldiv').innerHTML=req.responseText; } else { alert("There was a problem while using XMLHTTP:\n" + req.statusText); } } } req.open("GET", strURL, true); req.send(null); } } function getSub(id,cid) { var strURL="findSub.php?source="+id+"&cid="+cid; var req = getXMLHTTP(); if (req) { req.onreadystatechange = function() { if (req.readyState == 4) { // only if "OK" if (req.status == 200) { document.getElementById('subdiv').innerHTML=req.responseText; } else { alert("There was a problem while using XMLHTTP:\n" + req.statusText); } } } req.open("GET", strURL, true); req.send(null); } } </script> The only var that is passing is SOURCE, and that's because its the name of the first dropdown I'm VERY new to javascript, do i need to set up like a GET method on my RECEIVING page? or can i just pass variables through? Do i need to get the "existing" data in the fields first? Thanks in advance, JT Hello, i'm working on a 3 page survey. When hitting next, previous, or submit it passes the values of all the questions to the next page. I've got the whole thing working correcting except for one thing: When the box is "not" checked it passes no value. I'm needing it to have a value of "1" when checked and a value of "0" when not checked, and currently when its not checked and i pass the info it leaves it blank. I'd post the whole code to one of the pages but it's long , so i'll post the snipits of the code. Code: <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function processQueryString() { var formData = location.search; formData = formData.substring(1, formData.length); while (formData.indexOf("+") != -1) { formData = formData.replace("+", " "); } formData = unescape(formData); var formArray = formData.split("&"); for (var i=0; i < formArray.length; ++i) { //document.writeln(formArray[i] + "<br />"); var sDataName = formArray[i].split("=") switch (sDataName[0]) { case ".lib_use": for (var j=0; j < document.getElementsByName(".lib_use").length; ++j) { if (document.getElementsByName(".lib_use").item(j).value == sDataName[1]) { document.getElementsByName(".lib_use").item(j).checked = true; //alert("lib_use set"); } } break; case ".lib_comp": if (sDataName[1] == 1) { document.getElementsByName(".lib_comp").checked = true; document.getElementsByName(".lib_comp").value= 1; } else { document.getElementsByName(".lib_comp").checked = false; document.getElementsByName(".lib_comp").value= 0; } break; default: alert("not caught = " + sDataName[0]); continue; } } } /* ]]> */ </script> <input type="checkbox" name=".lib_comp" id="lib_comp" value="1" /> The first case that i showed in my code is a radio button, and it passes correctly, i just wanted to show the "format" i was using in a working sense. The 2nd case is an example of the check boxes. Thanks for looking at this, and giving any suggestions you might have! Hi, I'm trying to integrate an address finder (http://www.craftyclicks.co.uk/) into my shopping cart (OsCommerce). I can get it to work but I need to add my own functionality. I'm not very experienced with JavaScript and my head has entered an infinite loop by now. The problem is that the address finder script can change the selected country in a drop-down list depending on the postcode entered by the user (using the onblur event handler). What I need it to do is to remove all other countries depending on the postcode. I can get it to remove all other countries but how do i return to the original list of countries when the postcode is changed again? Once all other counties are removed, the drop-down list will obviously only have one option left... I guess the question is also how does a function remember what it has done before, when it is called again? I have written this short test script as it is easier to work with than the craftyclicks oscommerce contribution: 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"> <head> <title>HTML Template</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <meta name="description" content="" /> <meta name="keywords" content="" /> <script type="text/javascript"> //<![CDATA[ function store(element) { // store values var cl = element; var text_list = new Array(); var value_list = new Array(); var length = cl.length; for (var foo=0; foo<length; foo++) { text_list[foo] = cl.options[foo].text; value_list[foo] = cl.options[foo].value; alert("text array " + foo + " " + text_list[foo]); alert("value array " + foo + " " + value_list[foo]); } populate(cl, text_list, value_list); } function populate(element, text, value) { // populate options with previously stored values var cl = element; var length = cl.length; cl.options.length=0; for (var bar=0; bar<length; bar++) { cl.options[bar]= new Option(text[bar], value[bar], false, false); } } function crafty_set_country(code) { var cl = document.getElementById('select'); store(cl); for (var i=0; i<cl.length; i++) { if (cl.options[i].value == code) { alert(cl.options[i].value + " found"); var value = cl.options[i].value; var text = cl.options[i].text; cl.options.length=0; cl.options[0]=new Option(text, value, true, true); /* for (var j=0; j<cl.length; j++) { alert("second loop " + cl.options[j].text); if (cl.options[i].value != code) { cl.options[j] } } */ } else { alert(cl.options[i].value); } } } //]]> </script> </head> <body> <form> <select id="select"> <option value="10">ten</option> <option value="20">twenty</option> <option value="30">thirty</option> <option value="40">fourty</option> <option value="50">fifty</option> <option value="60">sixty</option> </select> <input type="button" value="remove" name="button" onClick="crafty_set_country(50)"> <input type="button" value="repopulate" name="button" onClick="crafty_set_country(100)"> </form> </body> </html> Many thanks! Martin Hi, I have what I assume started as a simple error and then trying to fix it I think I have made things so complicated I've become confused. I have two fields, a drop down list and a text field, when someone clicks on a value in a drop down list (I will show the results eventually but at the moment) I just want the result to echo in my getCategory.php and the same for the text field. Both php pages are currently being called. And at the moment contain $_REQUEST['category'] and $_REQUEST['ProductName'] respectively. Nothing is being echoed. I know the below code is wrong, but the more I try to correct it the worse it gets so I thought I would just leave it as is before I made it worse. Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function loadXMLDoc1(File,ID,Msg){ if (window.XMLHttpRequest) { xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); } else { try{ xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP"); } catch (e) { xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function(){ if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200){ document.getElementById(ID).innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText; } } var params=Msg; xmlhttp.open("POST",File,true); xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Pragma", "Cache-Control:no-cache"); xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"); xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-length", params.length); xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close"); xmlhttp.send(params); } </script> </head> <body> <label>Search by Category: </label> <select name="category" id="category" onchange='loadXMLDoc1("getCategory.php","txtHint","category")' class="input"> <option value="please select" selected"selected">Please Select</option> <option value="Clothes" name="Clothes" id="Clothes">Clothes</option> <option value="Bags" name="Bags" id="Bags">Bags</option> <option value="Hats" name="Hats" id="Hats">Hats</option> </select> <br /> <br /> <label>Search by name: </label> <input type="text" class="input" name="ProductName" id="ProductName" value="Search" size="30"/> <input type="button" value="Search" onclick="loadXMLDoc1('getProductName.php','txtHint', ProductName='(this.value)')" /> <br /> <br /> <div id="txtHint"></div> Dear all, I'm passing the variables myTitle and myLink to form.php using javascript. This is the way I'm doing it: Code: <a href='form.php?title=" + myTitle +"&link="+myLink+">Click me</a> It's working great but sometimes myTitle and myLink contain the plus character (+). When this happens it's not passed. In the case of the title, it's just a problem of looks but in the case of the link, well, the link won't work without the character. As an example if the title is: Laptop + Accessories What is passed is: Laptop Accessories What can I do to pass also the plus character?? Thanks a lot!! hey guys The first dropdown has some options as : abc(a) bcd(a) cde(b) def(b) efg(c) fgh(c) The second dropdown has : a b c On selecting abc(a) in first dropdown the 'a' must get selected in second dropdown,on selecting cde(b) second dropdown must have 'b' and so on,also the second dropdown value should be disabled(grayed out) for user.Need the code in javascript.ty in advance. Hello, I am completely new to HTML/JS/CSS, therefore I know very little. I have two drop-down prompt controls with month names. One has just one value (say "July") and the other has all the months of the year ("January".."December"). The first prompt control is hidden on the page. How do I set the default selection of the second prompt control to the value present in the first prompt control? So, when the page is run, the second prompt control should automatically show "July". I was reading up on the selectedIndex property (?), but I know that it won't work because I want Index 0 to be selected in the first control and Index 6 in the second, and I expect it to change every month (next month it will be index 7 that should be automatically selected). If it matters, I am using IE8. Thanks! Hi, I've had problems in the past understanding this, however, after reading this tutorial, I understand. In some languages, like VB6, I notice the "byVal" and the "byRef" is specifically used. In javascript, I don't notice those specifics typed in functions. Is the "default" by value when using in a function to change a parameter? If it is, what is the syntax for using by reference, or is that ever used? My question arises from this notation taken from here: Quote: Note that it is the value that a has at the time that it is passed into the function that gets substituted into the argument and not the value that the original variable has at that point in the processing. It is the values in the parameters that the function uses and not the variables. This is called pass by value . In those languages where you can pass the actual variable into the function instead of just passing its value the method used to do so is called pass by reference . Had we been able to pass the variables into the function by reference rather than by value then the final value in b would have been -16 instead of -14. Here is the example (passing by value): Code: function myfunction(y, z) { a += y; b -= z; } var a = 0; var b = 10; var c = 3; var d = 4; var e = 2; myfunction(c, d); myfunction(d, e); myfunction(9, 2); myfunction(b, a); Results: myFunction(c, d); output: 0 + 3 = 3(y), 10 - 4 = 6(z) myFunction(d, e); output: 3 + 4 = 7(y), 6 - 2 = 4(z) myFunction(9, 2); output: 7 + 9 = 16(y), 4 - 2 = 2(z) myFunction(b, a); output: 2 + 16 = 18(y), 2 -16 = -14(z) Thanks! Hi, I have two dropdown lists with the second one being dependent on the selection in the first. Options in list 1: 1,3 or 4 List two should be enabled when 3 or 4 is selected in list 1. So far so good, managed to get it to work with only one set of lists, but I actually have 18 of those sets in this form: Code: <select name="fw[$i]" id="fw[$i]"> <option value="1">FWH</option> <option value="3">links</option> <option value="4">rechts</option> <option value="0" selected></option> </select><br /> <select name="lie[$i]" id="lie[$i]" disabled="disabled" onchange="showBox($i,xxx);"> <option value="0" selected>---</option> <option value="1">gut</option> <option value="2">schlecht</option> <option value="3">Strafschlag</option> <option value="4">OB</option> </select> $i is my index generated by my PHP script and runs from 1 to 18. Everything works just fine as long as the index is not in play. With the index my function breaks, most probably due to my inability to extract the second parameter (xxx above) from the selection field. Here's my function, there could be something wrong there too with how exactly to specify the proper dropdown list to enable. Code: function showBox(field,val) { if (val > 1) { var box = 'lie[' + field + ']'; document.form1.box.disabled == false; } else { document.form1.box.disabled == true; } } Finally, I'm not that adept in javascript programming, more like a trial and error guy, how has hit the wall with this problem. Thanks in advance! Joe I've had some help figuring out how to pass a variable through a pop-up window: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function expo(o) { var et = document.getElementById(o); if(et) { window.open( "exp.php?exportthis="+et.value, "myWindow", "status = 1, height = 300, width = 300, resizable = 0"); } } </script> <form action="" method="post"><input type=hidden value="$file" name="exportthis" ><input type=submit value=Export name= "Exp"onclick="expo('exportthis');" /> </form> However, my issue is that I have multiple forms. The forms are the same - the variables are different. The code above only works with the first variable returned. Here's an example of the problem. Code: <?PHP //for example purposes the filename will be labeled as numbers $i = 1; while ($i < 5) { echo "<form action=\"\" method=\"post\"><input type=hidden value=\"$i\" name=\"exportthis\" ><input type=submit value=\"Export\" name= \"Exp\"onclick=\"expo('exportthis');\" /></form>"; } ?> The above simple PHP script produces 5 simple forms. All of them are identical with the exception of the 'exportthis' or variable that I'm trying to pass through. They are numbered '1' to '5'. If I press the submit button for any of them only the first variable (in this case '1') is passed through. Can someone help me modify the javascript so that the right variable is passed through and not just the first one? Code: function viewDetails(rowid,linkid){ alert("enterining into bundles"); if(linkid=='seobundles') { alert("enetering into if "); document.chwAnnouncementW.action='${contextPath}'+"/dolphin.wss/viewSeobundleW?rowindex="+rowid; document.chwAnnouncementW.submit(); } else { alert(linkid); document.chwAnnouncementW.action='${contextPath}'+"/dolphin.wss/viewSeoW?rowindex="+rowid; document.chwAnnouncementW.submit(); } } Actually i am passing linkid="seobundles" as string but its not interpreting and it is always going to else part and not if part. I tried to print link id its teling its of object HTML table type and we are passing the two parameters rowid, linkid from a macro. rowid is working fine as and when we select radio buttion but linkid is not working as an string. IF i pur linkid in single quotes then also its not working Should be simple, but I'm having a complete brain fart. I need to call a function, with a parameter that triggers something relative to that parameter. Pseudo Example Code: function respawn(n) { case 1 //respawn monster1 code case 2 //respawn monster 2 code case 3 //respawn monster 3 code } if(killed monster1) {respawn(1)} //respawn(monster1) is what I want to do if(killed monster2) {respawn(2)}//respawn(monster2) is what I want to do if(killed monster3) {respawn(3)}//respawn(monster3) is what I want to do I can... Code: function respawn1(){ //respawn monster1 code } function respawn2() { //respawn monster2 code } function respawn3() { //respawn monster3 code } if(killed monster1) {respawn1()} if(killed monster2) {respawn2()} if(killed monster3) {respawn2()} but if I have 10+ monsters I just figured a case structure would be good, or passing the monster to respawn to a single respawn() function......but all the switch examples I could find were based on dateTime which gave case 1-7 based on what day it was, and didn't show how you set your own cases like monster1, monster2, monster3.... I know this is a basic concept...I've read about functions he http://www.quirksmode.org/js/function.html and at w3schools of course but can't figure out how to apply it to my situation Thanks How do I pass an id to a function?? Or is this even possible. Code: <html> <head> <title> JavaScript array passing example </title> <script type="text/javascript"> function init(){ display(addText1); display(addText2); display(addText3); display(addText4); } function display(var myText){ var newText = '<h2>' + "Will this change anything..." + '</h2>'; document.getElementById('myText').innerHTML = newText; } </script> </head> <body onload="init()"> <div id="addText1"></div> <div id="addText2"></div> <div id="addText3"></div> <div id="addText4"></div> </body> </html> Is it possible to pass the id onChange like in this example instead of the value This is part of a large complex script, and I need the id as seperate function Code: <select name='color' onChange='this.form.F1.value=this.form.color.id' > <option value='Green' id='c1'>Green <option value='Red' id='c2'>Red <option value='Blue' id='c3'>Blue </select> <input type="text" name="F1" size="15" value="" onChange="this.value=this.form.color.id"> Hello Guys, I have a page with thumb nails and a large image that changes when clicking on thumbnail.

Hi, I want to pass a javascript function's return value, to an anchor tag's href parameter i.e. <a href> Suppose I have a function called getTrackingCode( ) that contains a value "testSite" Code: <script language = "JavaScript"> function getTrackingCode( ) { return "testSite"; } </script> Now I want to pass this function's value to anchor's href, I have attempted these: Code: 1. <a href="http://www.helloworld.com/?id=" + getTrackingCode( )> 2. <a href="javascript: document.location= 'http://www.helloworld.com/?id=' + getTrackingCode( );"> So that the resulting URL becomes http://www.helloworld.com/?id=testSite But none of the procedures work. Please help me do it. NOTE: Please note that I can't use the function with document.write to write the whole tag because that would be very hard to manage as I will have to use it in case of text links, image links, hotspots etc. and for each I would have to write a separate function. Furthermore, I don't want the Status bar of the browsers to show something like javascript:location.href (); etc. I want the actual href link to be seen in the Status bar, as if no javascript manupulation is done. In a nutshell, the code should be reusable for the href paramater in anchor tag's href of any element, be it a text link, image link, script link, hotspot or link area and doesn't show javascript function calling in the Status bar of the browser. I've heard that I can do such a thing using ElementbyID etc. but have no idea. Please help me with this, Thanks much! Hi, I am trying to pass data from one page to the next using a search.
