JavaScript - Populating Html Select Menu Using Xml File
Hello,
I'm trying to populate an HTML drop down list with data from an XML file but have failed miserably so far using examples I've found. Please help. Thanks, Richard Similar TutorialsHello. I have a problem here I have this menu: Code: <script language="JavaScript">

how this can be done in js Hi I wanna to have two select boxes, one of them will contain a list of provinces, and on the other I wanna have a list of cities, but based on selected province. When province selects, cities select box must be changed, too. I don't wanna use AJAX for this purpose, as the server is already too busy and I don't like to disturb it more. So if anyone can provide a solution, just by Javascript and not with AJAX, I would be appreciate it. Cheers! Hello, I am trying to make a custom select menu. Here is what I have so far: http://mikewgd.com/wp-content/portfo...custom-select/ Im just stuck at getting the <li> to become selected and etc... I am using this as reference: http://v2.easy-designs.net/articles/replaceSelect/ -- Im not using there script exactly Im doing it a different way. Im doing it more as a dropdown menu Code: <ul class="select">
<li class="selected">
cheese
<ul class="drop">
<li>milk</li>
<li>bread</li>
<li class="selected">cheese</li>
<li>pickles</li>
<li>salsa</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
Hi guys, I am after a script which will has parametres to modify the select menu in webpages. I have looked at niceforms http://www.emblematiq.com/lab/niceforms/demo/ However i dont know how to apply it. Any tips would be much appreciated. George Hello all! I'm about to use this script below for a project I have. It works great but unfortunately I can't get it to read select menu (selected option) values. It returns undefined. I've asked the author but had no response as yet, so I was wondering if anyone else could see why it wouldn't read the select menu value. Code: var functionname = function () {}
functionname.prototype = {
options : {},
generateShortCode : function() {
var content = this['options']['content'];
delete this['options']['content'];
var attrs = '';
jQuery.each(this['options'], function(name, value){
if (value != '') {
attrs += ' ' + name + '="' + value + '"';
}
});
return '[googleMap' + attrs + ']' + content + '[/googleMap]'
},
sendToEditor : function(f) {
var collection = jQuery(f).find("input[id^=myplugin]:not(input:checkbox),input[id^=myplugin]:checkbox:checked");
var $this = this;
collection.each(function () {
var name = this.name.substring(9, this.name.length-1);
$this['options'][name] = this.value;
});
send_to_editor(this.generateShortCode());
return false;
}
}
var myfunction = new functionname();
I have two select menus, the second menu items should be determined based on the selected item of the first menu, and the problem I face is about using document.write() in adding the select menu items, when I write the items like this it work: Code: <select name="cities" >
<script type="text/javascript">
document.write("<option value=''>city1</option>");
document.write("<option value=''>city2</option>");
document.write("<option value=''>city3</option>");
</script>
</select>
but when I put them in a function they wrote as a text not a menu item, and I must use a function and use if or switch in it, so what's the solution? Hi All, I searched for an answer but didn't find anything that matched my issue. I am using Dreamweaver CS5 and have a few spry validation select boxes on my page. All but one are working correctly. The one in question is spryselect1 ("spryEquipLoc"). For some reason (which I cannot figure out) this field will display the selectRequiredState even after a selection has been made.

Hi all, this is my first post so forgive me for any errors but i'll try and give all the information i can. i use Xara Designer Pro and i have used a 3rd party software to create a html menu however i have a html loading screen on my site and the menu always appears on top of the screen and while the screen is loading, this is the only thing that appears on top everything else is fine, i have put this to the people on the xara forums and the opinion is that its probably the JS file that the menu is using that is telling it to appear on top. i was wondering what i should look for to determin this problem or if someone could take a look at it for me? i'll upload the JS here and see if anyone can help. my site is at www.pcevo.co.uk however you need to CTRL + F5 to refresh wihtout the cache to see the loading screen if you are on a fast connection.
hi guys! i would like to know the script for me to auto select an option in a menu on a single click. so i have two pages. on the first page is the button. second page is the drop down menu. menu has selection "fruit" "vegies" "meat". by default fruit is selected. when i click on that button it will automatically select the menu on the second page for "meat". thanks!! *Edit: I thread title should probably be "Initialize indices..."* I've done quite a bit of research but couldn't find what I need to know so here I am. I have some javascript generated by php that reads a configuration file to add options to a select menu. This is somewhat irrelevant but... these options are removed from the menu when clicked and data related to the option is shown on the page... and the option gets re-added when the data is closed. I need the option to go back in the correct place/order in the select menu... which wouldn't be a problem if I could initialize the indices of the menu's options. They need to be initialized because when the page is created, saved settings are read and certain options are not shown in the list because they may already be shown according to the settings... meaning... since browsers automatically increment the indices of the options by 1 (starting at 0), if data is closed that was initially open and therefore not in the select menu at first... the key/index associated with that data will likely not match the correct menu order. Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function addOptionToSelect(selectID,index,offset,val,txt) {
var elSel = document.getElementById(selectID);
elSel.options[index+offset].value = val;
elSel.options[index+offset].text = txt;
}
function addLoadEvent(func) {
var oldonload = window.onload;
if (typeof window.onload != 'function') {
window.onload = func;
} else {
window.onload = function() {
if (oldonload) {
oldonload();
}
func();
}
}
}
<?php
foreach ($props as $k => $prop) {
if (!in_array($prop, $_SESSION['crProps'])) {
?>
addLoadEvent(addOptionToSelect('propertySelect',<?php echo $k; ?>,1,'?p=<?php echo $prop; ?>&k=<?php echo $k; ?>','<?php echo $prop; ?>'));
<?php
}
}
?>
</script>
For example, suppose I have the following potential data sets: a,b,c,d,e,f In the config file that helps create the page, suppose it is something like: <Default>0:a|2:c|3:d</Default> (FYI: I've designed it so that the data set names/options are separated by the pipe character ("|") and their corresponding index is the number to the left of the colon.) Then the select menu that is initially generated would be something like: (Every other data set name except for what is already open by default.) <select id="bleh"> <option value="b">b <option value="e">e <option value="f">f </select> And by default, browsers would assign the indices like so: (skipping getElementById and all that...) select.options[0].value = b select.options[1].value = e select.options[2].value = f Whereas, I need it to be initialized like this: select.options[1].value = b select.options[4].value = e select.options[5].value = f So that when the data sets initially open are closed (a, c, or d)... they get put in the correct position in the list. I just thought of something... it's a little inefficient (OCD lol) but it should work and at worst would only cost a couple of milliseconds of processing time. A solution to this problem might be to load the menu with all options so that their indices are correct... and remove the defaults afterward. I'll try it. the script below should open a new window with a url specified in the select area. However, my script ignores the changes in the select area. it keeps opening the same page. I was wondering could someone take a look and tell me why? Thank you very much. <code> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title> Jump Menu</title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" /> <script type="text/javascript"> function jump_menu() { var i=document.getElementById("page_select").selectedIndex; document.getElementById("jump_to_page").onclick=function() { (i==0) ? alert("Please select a page to go"):window.open("http://www."+document.getElementById("page_select").options[i].value); } } window.onload=jump_menu; </script> </head> <body> <select id="page_select"> <option>Select a Page</option> <option value="yahoo.ca">Yahoo</option> <option value="topnews.ru">Top News</option> <option value="google.com">Google</option> <option value="amazon.com">Amazon</option> </select> <button type="button" id="jump_to_page">Go</button> </body> </html> </code> I am hoping you guys can help me with this issue. What I am trying to do is fairly simple, depending on what option you select in the menu I want the picture to change to different picture. The code that I posted below works perfectly except for one problem. I need the option value to display the color name, and not have the image code in it. I have researched ways to do this without having to use "value" but I just can't find one that works. Can someone please help me? Thanks in advance for any help given! Code: function changeimg(){

But if a user changes mind and clicks Back button. i want a use to see again "Select a New Page" as a first option in the select menu. instead i see the page that was chosen before. in firefox, even when i click Refresh button, the select menu does not go back to its initial format. I tried to use the principle that each time window is loaded, the selected Index would be 0. it is not working. Could anyone give me a hint on how to fix this problem? my script is below. <html> <head> <title>Jump Menu 2</title> <script type="text/javascript"> function new_page() { var selectmenu=document.getElementById("states_form").states_select; selectmenu.onchange=function new_state() { var i=selectmenu.selectedIndex; var state=selectmenu.options[i].value; var new_page="http://www.50states.com/"+state+".htm"; location.href=new_page; window.onload=function select_reload() { i=0; } } } window.onload=new_page; </script> </head> <body> <form id="states_form"> <select name="states_select"> <option value="0"> -- Select a New State--</option> <option value="nebraska"> Nebraska</option> <option value="texas"> Texas</option> <option value="florida">Florida </option> <option value="oregon"> Oregon</option> <option value="wisconsi"> Wisconsin</option> </select> </form> </body> </html> I have the following code but it simply writes the path to the webpage.

Code: jsFiles= new Array(3) jsFiles[0]=["assets/base/scripts/itmpiscripts/popupad1/script.js"] jsFiles[1]=["assets/base/scripts/itmpiscripts/popupad2/script.js"] jsFiles[2]=["assets/base/scripts/itmpiscripts/popupad3/script.js"] randno = Math.floor ( Math.random() * jsFiles.length ); document.write(jsFiles[randno]); Thanks I'm tearing my hair out with this one and can't figure out why it won't work, and am hoping someone could help a Javascript noobie out. Basically, I need the script to hide two divs if one of the options in a <select> menu is selected. Here's the code I've got for the Javascript: Code: function typeoflisting() {
var selectform = document.getElementById('propertytype');
if (selectform.options[selectedIndex].value == "sell") {
document.getElementById('per_week').style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById('bond').style.display = 'none';
}
else {
document.getElementById('per_week').style.display = 'block';
document.getElementById('bond').style.display = 'block';
}
}
Here's the <select> form: Code: <select id="propertytype" name="propertytype" class="select" onchange="typeoflisting()"> <option value="lease">I'd like to lease a property to tenants</option> <option value="sell">I'd like to sell a property</option> <option value="share">I'd like to share a property</option> </select> And here's the first div I'm attempting to hide: Code: <div id="per_week" style="float: left;"> per week</div> And the second div I'm attempting to hide: Code: <div style="float: left; padding: 20px 20px 0px 0px;" id="bond"> <h3>Bond</h3> <input type="text" class="text" value="$"/> </div> Could anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? Trying to get the divs to switch style properties when selected form select menu. Any help would be great! Code: <script type="text/javascript">
function showstuff(element){
if(document.getElementById(element).style.display = 'block')
{
document.getElementById(have).style.visibility="block";
document.getElementById(look).style.visibility="none";
}
else if(document.getElementById(element).style.visibility = 'block')
{
document.getElementById(look).style.visibility="block";
document.getElementById(have).style.visibility="none";
}
}
</script>
<select name="type" onchange="showstuff(this.value);">
<option value="look">Look</option>
<option value="have">Have</option>
</select>
<div id="have" style="display:block;">Have</div>
<div id="look" style="display:none;">Look</div>
Hi Everyone, I'm trying to allow a user to select an XML file so that my javascript can parse it and create some pins for a google map. It works fine in Firefox, and by using FireBug I can see that the file is being accessed as expected. IE on the other hand tells me that "'files.0' is null or not an object" on line 68 of address-locator.php...
