JavaScript - Dropdown Hover Menu Based On Scrolling Position

I'm currently generating some tooltips to display data for certain items in a game. The tooltips and stats work great, however, for certain items, the tooltip gets long and will extend pass the viewable range for the user. Here are the links:

test page: http://cory.wellen.googlepages.com/Build_Hover_Test.htm
javascript: http://cory.wellen.googlepages.com/hover.js
css (for hover div only): http://cory.wellen.googlepages.com/affe.css

If you hover over the links of items (like villages, barracks, etc.) a tooltip will pop up to show you the stats. But if you notice, for items like castles, the tooltip can extend past the viewable range for the user.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
I tried to create a mouse over effect using jquery. When user hovers #box1_trigger link, the #service_box1 div should change it's background position. The code i created is the following it's not working for some reason.


html:
Code:

<div class="service_box box1" id="service_box1">
    <a href="#" id="box1_trigger">
        <h3>bla bla</h3>
        <p>bla bla bla bla bla</p>
    </a>
</div>

javascript:
Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
	$("#box1_trigger").hover(
		function() {
			$("#service_box1").stop().animate({backgroundPosition:"(0 -250px)"}, "slow");    
		},
		function() {
			$("#service_box1").stop().animate({backgroundPosition: "0 0"}, "slow");  
		}
	);
});
</script>

css:
Code:

#service_box1{
	width:318px; height:282px;
	float:left;
	background:url(images/services_panel.png) 0 0 no-repeat;
}
a#box1_trigger{
	width:100%; height:100%;
	float:left;
	display:block;	
}

Could you help me fix this please??

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

thanks anyway

Hi,
I have a table displaying records from query, now i want to have a small dropdown listbox on the top right corner called "sort by". The list index would be "date modified", "Price(High-low)" and "Price(Low-High)".
I want my order by clause in my SQL to change according to the values in the dropdownlistbox.
Code:

SELECT * FROM Cars
ORDER BY date modified

How can i pass my selected value from the listbox to my PHP SQL statement?
Thanks

Ok so let's say I have this dropdown with a list of these items:

PALCO
TRIBUNA
ORO

And in a button on the page I want to send it one of those names, let's say I send it ORO, and through Javascript select that in the dropdown list. How is this done? Do I have to iterate through everything, and how?

Thanks for any help in the subject.

Hi,

How can I auto populate the data by dropdown selected? and my dropdown result already appear as well, the code as following:
PHP Code:
<?php
    echo '<tr>
    <td>'.$customer_data.'</td>
    <td><select name="customer_id">';

    foreach ($customers as $customer) {
        if ($customer['customer_id'] == $customer_id) {
            echo '<option value="'.$customer['customer_id'].'" selected="selected">'.$customer['name'].'</option>';
        } else {
            echo '<option value="'.$customer['customer_id'].'">'.$customer['name'].'</option>';
        }
    }
    echo '</select>
        </td>
    </tr>';
?>

and the result of dropdown above listed as
admin customer1 FREE loaded from following db

PHP Code:
INSERT INTO `my_customer` (`customer_id`, `name`, `firstname`, `lastname`) VALUES
(8, 'admin', '', ''),
(6, 'customer1', 'ok', ''),
(7, 'FREE', 'marj', 'om'); 


so whenever dropdown selected i want the all data below:
PHP Code:
<tr>
<td><?php echo $firstname; ?></td>
<td><?php echo $lastname; ?></td>
</tr>

also auto populate, it seem need javascript/ajax/jquery to fixed it, I was Wondering if someone could help me, and thanks in advance

Javascript novice here looking to create a dynamic dropdown based on date.
It's a list of preset prices that will change each month to reflect a pro-rated system. Any thoughts/examples on how I would go about setting this up using javascript would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Here's what I need:

In September, the dropdown will display these prices
Code:

<option value="100">Product 1</option>
<option value="150">Product 2</option>
<option value="200">Product 3</option>

In October, the dropdown will display these prices
<option value="50">Product 1</option>
<option value="100">Product 2</option>
<option value="150">Product 3</option>

Hi, i am building a website form which I would like the user to select a product of interest. Some products are three tiered and some are two tiered.

1. Example of three tier (3 dropdowns required only):
Scooters (dropdown 1)
Three Wheel Scooters (dropdown 2)
Delux 503S Bird Scooter (dropdown 3)

2. Example of two tier (2 dropdowns required only):
Standing Bikes (dropdown 1)
Children 300 Series (dropdown 2)

If the user wants to submit their interest for one of the products, I need to have at most 3 dropdown menus. So in Example 1, I would have 3 dropdowns in my form. Dropdown 1: Scooters Dropdown 2: Three Wheel Scooters Dropdown 3: Delux 503S Bird Scooter

In Example 2, I would only need to use the first 2 dropdown menus. (Obviously the first dropdown would contain 'Scooters' and 'Standing Bikes' in the menu list)

The below code is perfect except, I would like to alter the code so that the second and third dropdowns are hidden until a selection from the first drop down is made. Once for example, 'Standing Bikes' is selected from the first dropdown menu, the second dropdown menu appears and the third remains hidden due to the fact that it is not required. If I selected Scooters from the first dropdown menu, the second dropdown would appear listing all items associated with this and at this point the third dropdown menu is hidden. If i select 'Three Wheel Scooter' from the second dropdown the third dropdown menu now appears listing all Three wheel Scooters such as 'Delux 503S Bird Scooter'.

I hope this makes sense. Let me know if you require clarrification.

Here is the code:

Hi,

On a registration form I have 4 fields that are all dropdown select fields. NAME, CLASS-1, CLASS-2, CODE

1) I would like to activate the CLASS-1, CLASS-2, CODE fields only if the NAME IS Selected from the dropdown.

2) Also would like to make the CLASS-1, CLASS-2 as required fields if the NAME is selected from the dropdown.

How can I achieve this? Can I use some kind of a server event to activate / deactivate the fields on the form? Please advice

Thanks
Vinny

Hi!

The menu automatically scrolls when the menu doesn't fit the browser window.

How is a menu that works like this built?
Is there any free demos/examples?

Thanks in advance!

Codes for Dropdown menu based on radio buttons selection needed!?

I need urgent help with this:

I need codes for a dropdown menu that is altered by radio buttons.

I want to insert the value selected from the dropdown menu into a table.

I've been searching all over with no luck.. I have a menu with several links placed side by side, more than will fit across the screen. So what I'm looking for is a clickable right and left arrow on either side of the menu that would allow me to scroll horizontally through the links. i need to be able to click on the navigatation arrows and links (which will fade in various images when hovered over) without it leaving/refreshing the page.

Here is a simple sketch of the menu:

<- Link1 - Link 2 - Link 3 - Link 4 - Link 5 ->

[images will fade in and out down here as links are hovered over]

I've seen slideshows that are similar to this except my layout will be more complex than just having a big square area to display images in. I just need the basic functions to work (the sideways navigation) and then I can take it from there. any ideas?
