JavaScript - Submit A Drop Down List
I use a ticketing website at a call center. I have javascript injection bookmarks with some of the more common issues, but my issue is even after I populate everything when I try to submit the ticket, it won't recognize that somethign is there unless i go through and hit enter in each form i autopopulated.
javascript:if((top.arid1000000000.value="Inquiry - ")!=""); Most are drop down lists. Is there any way to submit each form(when i hit enter) after the text gets entered in there? Similar TutorialsHi all, I have been struggling on a bit of code for a while now. I need to populate a second drop down list (Region) based upon the selection of the first (County). I have found a piece of code that works on its own and have adapted to suit my needs - see below. However, when I drop it into my main page the javascript is not working. It's because of the formObject but I just don't know enough to resolve this! Furthermore, I need the textboxes the user has already completed in the form to retain their value once the javascript kicks in as the completed form will submit to a database. This piece of code is working well . . . . Code: <?php $link = mysql_connect('myhost', 'myusername', 'mypassword') or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); mysql_select_db('mydatabase') or die('Could not select database'); if(isset($_GET["County"]) && is_numeric($_GET["County"])) { $County = $_GET["County"]; } if(isset($_GET["Region"]) && is_numeric($_GET["Region"])) { $Region = $_GET["Region"]; } ?> <script language="JavaScript"> function autoSubmit() { var formObject = document.forms['theForm']; formObject.submit(); } </script> <form name="theForm" method="get"> <!-- County SELECTION BASED ON city VALUE --> <?php ?> <select name="County" onChange="autoSubmit();"> <option value=''</option> <?php //POPULATE DROP DOWN MENU WITH COUNTRIES FROM A GIVEN city $sql = "SELECT * FROM county_regions"; $counties = mysql_query($sql,$link); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($counties)) { echo ("<option value=\"$row[CountyID]\" " . ($County == $row["CountyID"]? " selected" : "") . ">$row[County]</option>"); } ?> </select> <?php ?> <br><br> <?php if($County!= null && is_numeric($County)) { ?> <select name="Region" onChange="autoSubmit();"> <?php //POPULATE DROP DOWN MENU WITH RegionS FROM A GIVEN city, County $sql = "SELECT * FROM county_regions WHERE CountyID = $County "; $Regions = mysql_query($sql,$link); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($Regions)) { echo ("<option value=\"$row[CountyID]\" " . ($Region == $row["CountyID"]? " selected" : "") . ">$row[Region]</option>"); } ?> </select> <?php } ?> What follows is my form where the javascript is not working - edited quite a bit to save on space! Code: <head> <script language="JavaScript"> function autoSubmit() { var formObject = document.forms['subform']; formObject.submit(); } </script> </head> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="add_attraction01.php" FORM NAME="FormName"> <input type="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="32768" /> <label for="Business_name">Business Name</label> <input type="text" size="60" STYLE="color: #FFFFFF; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; font-size: 12px; background-color: #72A4D2;" <id="Business_name" name="Business_name" maxlength=60/><font size="1" face="arial" color="red">Required field</font><br /> <label for="StreetAddress">Address</label> <input type="text" size="60" rows="2" id="StreetAddress" name="StreetAddress" maxlength=120/><font size="1" face="arial" color="red">Required field</font><br /> <label for="Town">Town</label> <input type="text" size="25" id="Town" name="Town" maxlength=25/><font size="1" face="arial" color="red">Required field</font><br /> <?php $link = mysql_connect('myhost', 'myusername', 'mypassword') or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); mysql_select_db('mydatabase') or die('Could not select database'); if(isset($_GET["County"]) && is_numeric($_GET["County"])) { $County = $_GET["County"]; } if(isset($_GET["Region"]) && is_numeric($_GET["Region"])) { $Region = $_GET["Region"]; } ?> <form name = "subform" method="get"> <select name="County" onChange="autoSubmit();"> <option value=''</option> <?php $sql = "SELECT * FROM county_regions"; $counties = mysql_query($sql,$link); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($counties)) { echo ("<option value=\"$row[CountyID]\" " .

Thanks in advance for your help. The code below is a download form,, the number after the P= are the index idents for each file to be downloaded.. The destination_folder is set for C:\temp as default location. the code below works as needed for one file,,however i need to create a drop down list which will show all file names,and automatically throw the right ident for that file after the P=. sounds simple enough but there are other sections that are tied to this form so the solution has to use the CFForm_1(this) else i'll have to redo all the other sections as well. as well as javascript if anyone has a quick and clean way to do this i'd be very appreciative. i've pulled my hair out trying to find examples using this config and none are even close..or don't have a drop down menu Code: <form name="CFForm_1" action="http://www.XXX.cfm?p=6D6F615CC&rt=2&st=2" method="POST" onsubmit="CFForm_1(this)"> <input name="destination_folder" id="destination_folder" type="text" value="C:\Temp" maxlength="200" size="60" /> <input type="Submit" value="Resume"> thanks in advance, Rick Hello everyone! =] I need help with Javascript. I want to have a script that if one chooses to register for dinner, then validation will be performed to ensure whether the user have chosen that they are Vegetarian or not.

Thanks! Hello i use a javascript to use drop down lists so i display the appropriate products to user. Atm no matter the user option i display 3 drop down lists in whole products. Lets say the drop down lists are like manufacturer/order by/sochet. When the user wish to see "processors" then the sochet list have values, but when he choose "printers" the sochet list is empty since the printers dont contan sochets. In this case i want to hide the sochet drop down list in order to be more familiar to the user is that possible? My js looks like this Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function showUser() { var q=document.getElementById("manuf"); var q_val = q.options[q.selectedIndex].value; var t=document.getElementById("soch"); var t_val = t.options[t.selectedIndex].value; var c=document.getElementById("order"); var c_val = c.options[c.selectedIndex].value; if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); } else {// code for IE6, IE5 xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() { var q=document.getElementById("manuf"); var q_val = q.options[q.selectedIndex].value; var t=document.getElementById("soch"); var t_val = t.options[t.selectedIndex].value; var c=document.getElementById("order"); var c_val = c.options[c.selectedIndex].value; if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200) { document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText; } } xmlhttp.open("GET","productsdata.php?q=" + q_val + "&t=" + t_val+"&c=" +c_val, true); xmlhttp.send(); } </script> and my drop down lists like PHP Code: <select name="products2" id="soch" onchange="showUser()"> <option value="" selected="selected">Sochet</option> <?php do { ?> <option value="<?php echo $row_sochet['sochet']?>"><?php echo $row_sochet['sochet']?></option> <?php } while ($row_sochet = mysql_fetch_assoc($sochet)); $rows = mysql_num_rows($sochet); if($rows > 0) { mysql_data_seek($sochet, 0); $row_sochet = mysql_fetch_assoc($sochet); } ?> </select> I am working on a website that involves a pizza. I have a drop down box with the following options: small, medium, large, and extra large. When the user selects small the topping price is $0.75 each, when the user selects medium the topping price is $1.00 each, when the user selects large the topping price is $1.25 each, and when the user selects extra large the topping price is $1.25 each. I the problem is no matter what size the user selects the topping price is always $0.75. Here is code that goes with the drop down box : Code: <td height="49" align="right"><label for="Pizza_Size">Size</label> <select name="Pizza_Size" id="Pizza_Size" onchange = "SetToppingPrice()" /> <option value="Small_Pizza">Small ($4.99)</option> <option value="Medium_Pizza">Medium ($5.99)</option> <option value="Large_Pizza">Large ($7.99)</option> <option value="X_Large_Pizza">X-Large ($10.99)</option> </select></td> Here is the Javascript code: Code: // JavaScript Document function SetToppingPrice() { var Pizza_Topping_Price = document.getElementById("Pizza_Size"); divOutput = document.getElementById("Display_Topping_Price"); if(Pizza_Topping_Price = "Small_Pizza") { divOutput.innerHTML = "$0.75 per topping";} else if (Pizza_Topping_Price = "Medium_Pizza") { divOutput.innerHTML = "$1.00 per topping";} else if (Pizza_Topping_Price = "Large_Pizza") { divOutput.innerHTML = "$1.25 per topping";} else if (Pizza_Topping_Price = "X_Large_Pizza") { divOutput.innerHTML = "$1.50 per topping";} } Any advice is greatly appreciated. Hi All, I am really stumped. I am not sure why it's not working. Basically, selecting a country will pre-populate the state field for both billing and shipping sections. Please help! Also, when copying the billing info from shipping, the state field doesn't seem to copy over. I have attached the entire code as a text file (part1 + part2 = complete code). Thanks! Hello All, I am trying to create a three drop down lists for my job. The three drop downs would be: Degree Type (certificate, associate's, bachelor's, etc) Category (Arts & Humanities, Automotive, Computers & IT etc.) Program (Desktop Publishing, Automotive Technician Training, Network Systems, etc.) The Category list needs to be dependent on the degree type and the Program list needs to be dependent on the Category list. I need to have values that will submit to my form but ONLY for the Program List. For example: <option value="CECS">Cisco</option> <option value="CEIT">Information Technology (General)</option> <option value="CEMS">Microsoft</option> <option value="CENSYS">Network Systems</option> Please note that I must use these program codes as values and I cannot use the option name as the value. This does not have to look good, it just needs to work as it is for internal use only within my company. This form will never be used by random web surfers. If someone can point me to a tutorial for a good triple drop down that will pass ONLY the values of the third list, that would be great! Thanks! Hi There. I've been reading this forum for quite sometime, but today is my first post, hope you guys can help. Here is how the code works: (its like a phone directory) -User first selects the dept. -Once selected, a second drop down populates with the names of each person in that department. -I want the contact info to show on the page once they select this last step. I need for when the user selects this second options for a link to open inside a iFrame inside of the same html page. I uploaded the file here for you to see: www.pioneer-energy.us/tf2/contact-us.html Here is the code for the HTML doc: Code: <body bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000" link="#0000ff" vlink="#800080" alink="#ff0000" onLoad="fillCategory();"> <FORM name="drop_list" action="yourpage.php" method="POST" > <SELECT NAME="Department" onChange="SelectSubCat();" > <Option value="">Select Department</option> </SELECT> <SELECT id="SubCat" NAME="SubCat"> <Option value="">SubCat</option> </SELECT> </form> Here is the .js file code Code: function fillCategory(){ // this function is used to fill the category list on load addOption(document.drop_list.Department, "Executive-Management", "Executive Management"); addOption(document.drop_list.Department, "Marketing", "Marketing", ""); addOption(document.drop_list.Department, "Annuities", "Annuities", ""); addOption(document.drop_list.Department, "Underwriting/Case Management", "Underwriting/Case Management", ""); addOption(document.drop_list.Department, "Human Resources", "Human Resources", ""); addOption(document.drop_list.Department, "Commissions", "Commissions", ""); addOption(document.drop_list.Department, "Policy Owner Services", "Policy Owner Services", ""); addOption(document.drop_list.Department, "Information Technology", "Information Technology", ""); addOption(document.drop_list.Department, "APS", "APS", ""); } function SelectSubCat(){ // ON selection of category this function will work removeAllOptions(document.drop_list.SubCat); addOption(document.drop_list.SubCat, "", "SubCat", ""); if(document.drop_list.Department.value == 'Executive-Management'){ addOption(document.drop_list.SubCat,"MartyGreenberg", "Marty Greenberg - President"); addOption(document.drop_list.SubCat,"LisaGreenberg ", "Lisa Greenberg - Vice President"); addOption(document.drop_list.SubCat,"CraigBrown", "Craig Brown - CFO"); addOption(document.drop_list.SubCat,"RitaBogan", "Rita Bogan - Executive Secretary & Case Management"); addOption(document.drop_list.SubCat,"DianaGreenberg", "Diana Greenberg - Underwriting Manager"); } if(document.drop_list.Department.value == 'Marketing'){ addOption(document.drop_list.SubCat,"RonBielefelt", "Ron Bielefelt - Chief Marketing Officer"); addOption(document.drop_list.SubCat,"PeterMilanez", "Peter Milanez - Brokerage Manager"); addOption(document.drop_list.SubCat,"MarkRBugli", "Mark R.

Anyhow, I am currently creating a website for my canvas printing business and run into a few javascripting issues. I am trying to create a small navigation form whereby a customer can select from a dropdown the required width of canvas, this selection will then populate a second dropdown with a choice of canvas heights. Ok, so trawling many sites I came across some javascript that I was able to chop about and have this part sorted. The problem now is that I would like to include a submit button that when clicked takes the customer to a webpage based on their two dropdown choices, and being a complete newby when it comes to javascript I am stuck trying to include the script to enable this. eg: if they select '20" (51cm)' from the first dropdown and '16" (41cm)' from the second dropdown, they will navigate to "http: / / 20x16.co.uk" canvas print page. I have not currently created the canvas print pages so am unable to give the URLs of the pages. However if somebody can lend a hand to get me started and indicate where the desitnation URLs need to be added, I can drop these in later. The way that the script is currently written, the linked url could be based soley on the choice made in the second dropdown. I have a draft page with the working dropdowns he http://merchant.auctivacommerce.com/...iewtheme=32189 And the code that I currently have is: Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var SELECT_WIDTH_FIRST = [];

I want a variable to store the value (text) of the data field selected from a particular drop down list. Let me explain this with an example: If a dropdown list has data fields like (aa, bb, cc, dd, ee) and if a user selects the option 'bb' , then there should be a variable that stores the text 'bb'. I am using the following piece of code. Can you please take a look at it to tell whether I am doing the correct thing or not. Firstly, the HTML code that generates the drop down list on the page. This works fine. Code: <b> Student's Profession</b> <FORM NAME="Profession"> <SELECT NAME="Student’s Profession"> <OPTION VALUE="k1">Select <OPTION VALUE="k2">Engineer <OPTION VALUE="k3">Doctor <OPTION VALUE="k4">IAS <OPTION VALUE="k5">Lawyer <OPTION VALUE="k6">CA <OPTION VALUE="k7">IAS <OPTION VALUE="k8">Engineer + MBA <OPTION VALUE="k9">Family Business <OPTION VALUE="k10">None of the above </SELECT> </FORM> [Then I have declared a function in JavaScript that stores the value of the data field selected in a particular variable (sel_student_profession). I am not sure about the parameter. Should I simply write 'dropdown' or write the form name? (Profession). Or something else? Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function Selected_profession(dropdown) { var myindex = Profession.selectedindex; var sel_student_profession = Profession.options[myindex].text; return sel_student_profession; } </script> And then at the end of it, if I want to know the value (text) of the data field selected, I call the function. Right now, I am calling the function as follows: Code: var student_profession = Selected_profession(Profession); So, if the user selects "engineer" from the drop down list, student_profession should store "engineer". Am I doing it the correct way? If not, I would highly appreciate any sort of help. Thanks a lot! This is the code that I have:- Code: ListItem[1] = new Option("A List Item", "listitem1"); ListItem[1].style.display = "none"; The first line creates a new entry in the list, I am wanting the second line to remove the same item but it doesn't work. I have tried this:- Code: ListItem[1] = new Option(""); But that leaves a blank line entry in the list Cheers Daniel. hi, i am currently working on aptana stuidio Nokia WRT to create a mobile widget. the projects requires the retrieval of data from a database. I've created a java servlet in eclipse to connect and execute query to the database. In aptana, i'm using js file and html file. i am able to connect to the servlet, process the data (split it) and store in an array to display the retrieved data on screen. But now i am facing problems to put the retrieved data (array) into a drop down list for selection. can i do it in a js file? thanks =) Hey everyone I'm new here and I have a question about the best way to execute this task. I am trying to create a page with a dropdown list where the user selects the state. A drop down list below that can have the specific schools to that state to choose from. Now I need a way for the user to click on a school and then be taken to a page that has website URL's from all the fraternities in that school. Do I need php and mysql? I don't want to create a million pages unless I have to. What is the easiest way to do this. Maybe some kind of central form things where it outputs the fraternity you want at a particular school and state. Also I am using tumblr but can just link it to a normal html or php page just throwing that out there. Thanks guys! Thomas Hello. I am rying to give same name to the radio button options and those in the drop down list. It should look like in the picture below. It is obvious that the input names of all options (of radio buttons & in the dropdown list) should be the same. E.g. <input name="find"> Please help me with code Thank you. I want a JS code for drag and drop sortable and editable tree list, similar below image. tnx a lot |
