Hi All,

I need to replace the dropdown option values when a different dropdown value is changed.

I am calling the javascript function with onChange successfully, but I'm struggling to make the changes.

Original
Code:

<select name="People">
<option value="A">Person A</option>
<option value="B">Person B</option>
<option value="C">Person C</option>
</select>

Change to
Code:

<select name="People">
<option value="X">Person X</option>
<option value="Y">Person Y</option>
<option value="Z">Person Z</option>
</select>

Can someone provide an example?

Thanks You in Advance for Your Help!

Hi,

I've currently got a group of dropdowns that update a price total on my site. I want to add an 'add to cart' button too but this requires each drop down having 2 values (one to update total and one to go towards the 'add to cart button'). I've researched this but still have no idea how to go about getting 2 values from one dropdown though.

What I've done is create an explanation page where I have one form for the running total, and then a completely seperate form for the add to cart. Both work independanly, but I want to effectively combine them. Here's the page:
tigerfrog.co.uk/merge_codes.html

code for running total is:
Head Code:

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

function calc2(){
var totalStr = ''; // for testing only
var totalValue=0;
var DDL;
var cnt = 0; // for testing only
for (var j=1; j<=2; j++) {
DDL = document.getElementById('dropDownList'+j);
temp = DDL.options[DDL.selectedIndex].value;
totalValue += Number(temp);
if (DDL.selectedIndex != 0) { totalStr += '|'+temp; cnt++; } // cnt++ is for testing only
}
document.forms[0].total.value=totalValue;
}
</script>

Body Code:

<form id="dropDownForm2" name="dropDownForm2">
<td class="style14">&nbsp;<select id="dropDownList1" class="style10" name="D10" onchange="calc2();">
<option selected="" value="10">item1</option>
<option value="20">item2</option>
<option value="30">item3</option>
</select> <br />
</td>
<td class="style14">&nbsp;<select id="dropDownList2" class="style10" name="D11" onchange="calc2();">
<option href="alloy.htm" selected="" value="11">item4</option>
<option value="12">item5</option>
<option value="13">item6</option>
</select><br />
total </td>
<input class="style10" name="total" onfocus="blur()" readonly="" size="4" style="width: 46px; height: 22px;" type="text" value="958" /></form>

The code for the add to cart is:
Code:

<form action="http://www.romancart.com/cart.asp" method="post">
<input name="storeid" type="hidden" value="43579" />
<input name="itemcode" type="hidden" value="TF Series" />Frameset
<select name="itemname2">
<option value="TF100" value="TF100">item1</option>
<option value="TF300C" value="TF300">item2</option>
<option value="TF400C" value="TF400">item3</option>
</select><br />
Groupset <select name="itemname5">
<option value="SL T1" value1="SL T1">item4</option>
<option value="SLR T1" value1="SLR T1">item5</option>
</select><br />
<input type="submit" value="Add to basket" />
</form>

If I had 2 values from each drop down in the first group of dropdowns then I could get it working, but I'm not sure how to do this.

Any help will be great,

Phil

I have some code for a dropdown where when the 'Other' option is selected a textbox appears and the user can put in their info.

What I'm wondering is, how can i set it up so if the Other option isn't selected the dropdown info is sent to my database Name field, and if the Other option is selected it sends the info that's typed in to the Name field in my database and does nothing with the actual 'Other' label in the dropdown?

here's the code i have so far

Code:

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function getOther(sel,fld){
fld.style.display = (sel.selectedIndex==sel.options.length-1)?"inline":"none";
}
//-->
</script>
<select name="Name" id="Name" onchange="getOther(this,this.form.oth);">
<option>Name 1
<option>Name 2
<option>Name 3
<option>Name 4
<option>Name 5
<option>Other
</select>
<br><input type="text" name="Other" style="display: none;">

Hi,

I have a select box whose options are populated from an xml file, the code goes like this:

Code:

 var sel_html = '<select onChange="handleSelected(this)">' +
                        '<option selected> - Select a zone - <\/option>';

var a = 0;

      function createPolygon(pts,colour,name) {
        var shape = new GPolygon(pts,"#000000",1,1,colour,0.5, {title:name});
        gpolygons[a] = shape;
       
		// ======= Add the entry to the select box =====
        sel_html += '<option> ' + name + '<\/option>';
        // ==========================================================
        
        a++;
        return shape;
      }	
		
						


// ======= This function handles selections from the select box ====
      // === If the dummy entry is selected, the info window is closed ==
      function handleSelected(opt) {
	  for (var a=0; a<gpolygons.length; a++) {
		  gpolygons[a].hide();
        }
        var a = opt.selectedIndex - 1; 
        if (a > -1) {
          gpolygons[a].show()
        }
 }

sel_html += '<\/select>';
        document.getElementById("selection").innerHTML = sel_html;

which works fine for showing one option at a time, but what I would like to do is have one of the selections to be to show all of the options at the same time. At the moment I have it working with a checkbox that works off a separate piece of code, but it would be great to have that option within the select box.

You can see the select box in question here - it's the one on the right which says "Select a zone"

thanks in advance.

I have a select box with a few options.
When the page loads I need to get the selected option in this select box and alert its inner text.

Yet everything I try out on the net that should work wont work in IE, all other browser its fine.

Please can someone show me the TRUE and correct way to get the inner text of a option from a select box in IE?

Thanks!

Hello,

I have some database widgets. I want the user to be able to mouseover the widget and see a popup window of a synopsis of the database. If the user would like to access the database, I would like them to have the onClick option.

<head>
[CODE]
<script>
function openPopUp(URL) {
new_window = window.open(URL, 'window',
'toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,location=0, statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=650,height=300,left = 350,top = 280');
}
function closePopUp() {
new_window.close();
}
</script>
[CODE]


<Body>
[CODE]
<a href="#" onMouseOver="openPopUp('http://jpl.coj.net/res/db/popups/abc-clio.html')" onMouseOut="closePopUp(''http://jpl.coj.net/res/db/popups/abc-clio.html')"><img src="http://jpl.coj.net/pics/logos/abc-clio.jpg" alt="ABC-CLIO Databases" width="164" height="42" border="0"/></a>

<URL of database>

Can this be done? Thank you for your help, Elbee

Hello Everyone!

It's been a while since this thought started to bother me, I would like to create a website that has script which depending on the option chooses the image and merges with the other image.

My idea is that someone comes on my website which would be custom carp hair rings. They would have options such as:

Hook type
Hook size
Braid(fishing line)
Length of the braid
Swivel


So depending on the hook they choose different image will appear and depending on the braid and the hook size everything merges together into finished product where the outcome you could clearly see the image of the hook tied with braid and a swivel at the end.

This is the image

Basically where you see the hook, the customer could select from an option of hooks and it would be replaced by their option, the length of the bread doesn't matter, but it would be nice to have some sort of an indicator to the customer how long it would be, and the last bit is the swivel, depending on the option the customer chooses, he can see the swivel or not.

Its like creating your own carp rig, you choose which hook you want, then it appears, you choose which braid you want, it appears and if you want you can have a swivel at the end and you can see how your chosen options looks like in reality.

Now I do not ask anyone to do everything for me, all I'm asking is for directions. Is there a script somewhere that I could edit that would achieve my goal, since I have no coding skills but some knowledge it would be nice to get some support along the way.

Thank You for you attention

Hello.

Could anyone help me with this? I understand how to use OnChange with select boxes to allow the page to be redirected when certain options are selected, such as;

Code:

<select onchange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value,'_top')">
    <option value="">Choose a destination...</option>
    <option value="http://www.yahoo.com/">YAHOO</option>
    <option value="http://www.google.com/">GOOGLE</option>
    <option value="http://www.altavista.com/">ALTAVISTA</option>
    <option value="http://www.amazon.com/">AMAZON</option>
    <option value="http://artlung.com/">ARTLUNG</option>
</select>

However, I would like the page to only be redirected when just one option (out of 3) are chosen... and when the other two are chosen, we remain on the same page. such as;

Code:

<select onchange="window.open(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value,'_top')">
    <option value="">Choose an option...</option>
    <option value="tonight">TONIGHT</option>
    <option value="tomorrow">TOMORROW</option>
    <option value="http://mysite.com/selectdate">SELECT DATE</option>
</select>

is this possible?

Many Thanks,
Patrick.

So I have two for loops that check to see if each array item * a number returns a decimal.

Here is my code(Cred to Philip M):
Code:

		var myArray = f;
		
		for (var wi=0; wi<myArray.length; wi++) {
			var warray = myArray[wi];
			var wabs = Math.abs((warray*z1))
			if (!(wabs > Math.floor(warray)) && (wabs < Math.ceil(warray))){
				break;
			}
			else{
				warray = 1;
				break;
			}
		}
		
		for (var yi=0; yi<myArray.length; yi++) {
			var yarray = myArray[yi];
			var yabs = Math.abs((yarray*z2))
			if (!(yabs > Math.floor(yarray)) && (yabs < Math.ceil(yarray))){
				break;
			}
			else{
				yarray = 1;
				break;
			}
		}

I have two options (I don't know which one is easier because I am clueless about loops)

Option 1:

Basically I want to find warray, and I want to find yarray, and then once I have found them, I want to check if they multiply to be x

If they don't, try again and eliminate the option.

In other words: I need to try every combination of numbers in the array until I find two numbers that aren't decimals when they are multiplied by "z1" or "z2" and they both multiply to be "n"

Option 2:

Find a number for warray that isn't a decimal. Set yarray = (a/warray). If that number * z2 isn't an integer, find warray again, but eliminate the option that didn't work.

Thank you so much!

i have a archive of data that i want to be loaded in iframes since i have reached a length limit within that page. so what i have is a script that put in a value into a text area, but now i am trying to convert it to putting an src value inside an i frame.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript"> 
        function ddl_changed(obj)

            var s1 = document.getElementById('s1');
            s1.src = pr;
        }
        
        </script>


body
<div class="prim" align="center"> 
	Database
	<select id="prim" onchange="ddl_changed(this)">
<option value=" ">Choose a data set</option>

Is the window.status still useful nowadays or is it outdated? If it is still used, why doesn't this work please?

Code:

<a href="javascript_status_bar_messages.cfm"
  onMouseover="JavaScript:window.status='Status Bar Message goes here'; return true"
  onMouseout="JavaScript:window.status=''; return true">Hover over me!</a>
