JavaScript - Javacsript Drop Down List From Java Servlet!!
Hi, i am currently working on aptana studio nokia wrt to create a widget.
for my project, i've used a java servlet to connect to the database (ms sql server 2005) to retrieve data from the database. And in aptana studio, i am using javascript to connect to the servlet. I am able to display and process the data retrieved by the servlet. now i need to put the retrieved data into a drop down list for users to select. is there anyway i could do it in a .js file? thanks alot!!! regards, leesyy 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. Good day, I am looking for the easiest / simplest way to do a basic URL hit using javascript. I have a URL like this: http://myServer:8088/MyApplication/R...&session=test1 I need to hit this RPC servlet on my server and invoke the sessionStart function to get my application in a 'ready state' to handle other interactions... or reset the current state back to default. I really do not care about the response data returned from the server... As long as the servlet is reached, thats good enough. I am not executing my code inside a webBrowser, so spawning a window with the URL is not an option. From what I see, jQuery looks like the best option... Can anyone provide a basic example of how I can do this? Or provide input on the 'best' way to do this... if jQuery is not the way to go.. Thanks a lot, Alex how can set focus on Drop down after page is reset . when i press down key first time its working fine and select value but when i press again down key its focus out from drop down when i hard code means i give the control name its working fine but when i checking the type document.getElementById(document.activeElement.id).type == "select-one" its getting focus out after second time pressing down key sample code if (document.getElementById('control name'!=null) { document.getElementById('control name).focus(); if (document.getElementById(''control name)[document.getElementById('cntrlname').selectedIndex+1] !== null) { document.getElementById('cntrlname').selectedIndex=document.getElementById('cntrl namer').selectedIndex+1; document.getElementById('ctr name').onchange(); document.getElementById("ctlr name").selectedIndex = document.getElementById("ctr name").selectedIndex; document.getElementById('cntrl').focus(); } return false; } This code is working fine but this is spcefic to the control i want all drop down control in my app are set by pressing Hi everyone, My website has 10 drop down lists.

Thanks! i need help on designing a drop down list menu. this rolls down and shows other list of options to click on. i work in dreamweaver so javascripts and others can be incorporated. thanks all 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.

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! 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? 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> 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 Hi, I've checked the boards and was unable to find something that matched the code that I have. The code basically uses radio buttons to populate results to a drop-down list depending on the radio button they choose. I'm having trouble figuring out where and how to add the redirection url for each of the value choices in the drop down. I was told something about using window.location('http://url.here') and then to populate the location parameter with the array value. Does this mean I have to redo my script or can another piece of code be added on to make it work. How do I alter my existing code? Thanks in advance for any help I can get: Code: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <script type="text/javascript"> var services = new Array(); services['Tutoring'] = ['Grady', 'Holy Innocents', 'North Springs', 'Paideia', 'Riverwood', 'School Not Listed?']; services['Recording'] = ['John Doe']; function changechoice(choice) { var serviceList = services[choice]; changeSelect('service', serviceList, serviceList); document.getElementById('service').disabled = false; document.getElementById('service').onchange(); } function changeservice(serviceValue) { document.getElementById('output').innerHTML = serviceValue; return; } function changeSelect(fieldID, newValues, newOptions) { selectField = document.getElementById(fieldID); selectField.options.length = 0; if (newValues && newOptions) { for (i=0; i<newValues.length; i++) { selectField.options[selectField.length] = new Option(newOptions[i], newValues[i]); } } } </script> </head> <body> <table width="400" align="center" colspan="2" border="0" rowspan="2"> <tr> <td width="200" align="left"> Pick an option: </td> </tr> <td width="200"> <br> <ul> <input type="radio" name="choice" value="Tutoring" onclick="changechoice(this.value);"> Tutoring<br /> <input type="radio" name="choice" value="Recording" onclick="changechoice(this.value);"> Recording<br /> </ul> </td> <br> <td width="200" align="center" valign="top"> <br> <select name="service" id="service" onchange="changeservice(this.value);" disabled="disabled"> <option> -- Choose an Option -- </option> </select> </td> </table> </body> </html> 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 =) I have the code below and currently the user selects an option and clicks the go button and this links to the webpage in a new window, however I am wanting this to open in the same window instead, any help? Code: <html> <body><script> function goToNewPage(dropdownlist) { var url = dropdownlist.options(dropdownlist.selectedIndex).value; if (url != "") { window.open(url); } } </script> <p>Test</p> <form name="dropdown"><select accesskey="E" name="list"> <option selected="selected">Please select....</option> <option value="http://www.google.com/">Google</option> <option value="http://www.search.com/">Search.com</option> <option value="http://www.dogpile.com/">Dogpile</option></select> <input onclick="goToNewPage(document.dropdown.list)" type="button" value="Go" /></form> </body></html> Hi, I doing my project in Netbeans, and I have this .java page, that sets and gets a html form where there are textboxes and drop down lists, as far as I know, although getElementById() is a javascript code, it can be used in my .java page, but I do not know how to implement it. What I'm supposed to do is to get the values from the drop down list and save them to a database that I've already have. Code: HtmlPage page = null; page.getElementById(id); but because I do not know what should the id be since the .java page is not a jsp page and the drop down list values cannot be retrieved directly. Need help here, thanks. Hi, this simple code generates a dropdown box with two entries. When I mouseover either of them in Firefox, an image will appear, which then disappears when I mouseout. This won't work in any other browser so far as I can tell, although they all support onmouseover in the option element. Nothing at all happens. Could somebody please try it out and tell me what I am doing wrong? Many thanks. Code: <head> <title>MouseOver test</title> <script type="text/javascript"> function picPW() {document.getElementById("picA").style.visibility="visible";} function picCT() {document.getElementById("picB").style.visibility="visible";} function picOffPW() {document.getElementById("picA").style.visibility="hidden";} function picOffCT() {document.getElementById("picB").style.visibility="hidden";} </script> </head> <body> <select> <option onmouseover="picPW()" onMouseout="picOffPW()">ChoiceA</option> <option onmouseover="picCT()" onMouseout="picOffCT()">Choice B</option> </select> <img id="picA" src="imageA.gif" alt="Choice A" style="visibility: hidden" /> <img id="picB" src="imageB.gif" alt="Choice B" style="visibility: hidden" /> </body> |
