JavaScript - Radio Button Selections Appear In Second Window
Hi,
I'm learning javascript and not sure what the script language is capable of. Is there a way to make radio button selections appear in a second popup window? Example: user selects various options from a page then clicks button to open a second window with select options showing up in list. Thanks for reading this. Similar TutorialsHello, I need some help! I have some code that has a comments box and 2 radio buttons that ask if you want to be contacted about your comments. If you select "Yes", you get another set of radio buttons that ask you to choose a method of contact. When you choose a method, that selected methods value is parsed to the top of the textarea field, placing the comment below. I pretty much have it working, however, if I enter a comment in the "Comments" field, select "Yes", then select "email" and change to "Phone Morning", it concatnates the values in the textarea box instead of replacing the contact method value while still retaining the comment entered below. Also, if at all possible, I wanted to clear only the contact method value out of the textarea field and leave only the comment when you go back and click the "No" radio button. Can anyone please help? Thanks in advance!

Each row consist of 4 radio buttons. Each radio button per row has different values in it but has the same name (group) ex: <input type="radio" name="a" value="1"> <input type="radio" name="a" value="2"> <input type="radio" name="a" value="3"> <input type="radio" name="a" value="4"> <input type="radio" name="b" value="1"> <input type="radio" name="b" value="2"> <input type="radio" name="b" value="3"> <input type="radio" name="b" value="4"> and so on.. If I click radio button A with value 2, I want to output the total at the bottom as "2".. Also, if I click radio button B with value 3, I want to output the total of A and B as 5 and so on.. How can I automatically calculate the answer based on which radio button was click? update: I got my answer from this site: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1...s-using-jquery All, I have the following code: Code: <form action="" name="myform" method="post"> <input type="hidden" id="picimages" name="picimages" value="<?php echo $resultsetstory['bigger_id']; ?>" /> <p> <label> <input type="radio" id="picimages" name="picimages" value="<?php echo $resultsetstory['picture_id']; ?>" /> <?php if($resultsetstory['title']<>""){ echo $resultsetstory['title']; }else{ echo "Image 1"; } ?> </label> <br /> <label> <input type="radio" id="picimages" name="picimages" value="<?php echo $resultsetpic2['picture_id']; ?>" /> <?php if($resultsetpic2['title']<>""){ echo $resultsetpic2['title']; }else{ echo "Image 2"; } ?> </label> <br /> <input name="submit" type="button" value="Vote!" onclick="javascript:voteupdate(this.myform);"/> </p> </form> When I submit this, it goes to this function: Code: function voteupdate(obj) { var poststr = "picimage=" + document.getElementById("picimage").value + "&bigger_id=" + encodeURI( document.getElementById("bigger_id").value ); alert(poststr); makePOSTRequest('voteresults.php', poststr); } However I can't get the value of the radio group for the one that is selected. Can someone see what is wrong? Thanks. I don't exactly know how to word my issue. Basically, I need it so that if a user selects 'option1' in the group 'group1' when they go to 'group2' is only gives them a certain selection to choose from. If they choose 'option2' in 'group1' they will get a different set to choose from. My main dilemma is it must do this without them having to submit. All: I need some help with a radio button code. It seems simple but I am really new at JavaScript so I need help. I have created a JavaScript code that has three radio buttons (High, Medium, and Low). When you click on high two text boxes appear so that an email address can be added. What I need help with is making the text boxes disappear if someone accidentally click high and then went back to low or medium. Currently the High button stays clicked and the text boxes still show. Any help would be great.

I am working on a website which requires me to use it. The site is selling items that are priced depending on the size. There are 6 fixed sizes for the width and the length can come in any size 1 through 200. So that will be user input on the length and radio buttons on the width. I am trying to have the user put in the length and click a radio button for width and then calculate the price by multiplying them. I am trying to get 1 price to display right now just to test it but I can't figure out why it isn't working. Again I am fairly new at this so there might be multiple problems with my code.

I'm getting into javascript coding and i'm stumped with some problem about radio buttons. What I would like is to have a general function where I can pass in any group of radio buttons and have it return the textual value of the radio button selected. First, here is my code so far. Code: function Get_Radio_Selection(options) { var choice = ""; for (var index = 0; index <= options.length; index++) if (options[index].checked == true) choice = options[index].value; return choice; } Now here's a sample form: Code: <form name="form1"> <input type="radio" name="food" value="Banana">Banana <input type="radio" name="food" value="Mango">Mango <input type="radio" name="food" value="Orange">Orange <input type="radio" name="food" value="Oatmeal">Oatmeal <input type="button" name="blah" value="Get Selection" onclick="Get_Radio_Selection(document.form1.food);"> </form> My question is, when i run this function and pass it in the group of radio buttons by means of the onclick event handler, firefox 3.6.22 reports in the error console on line 22 that "options[index] is undefined". It seems that if i use the variable "index" more than one time it reports this error but if I take out the assignment to variable "choice" that it works just fine. I rewrote the function using a separate variable and this time it works perfectly: Code: function Get_Radio_Selection(options) { var choice = ""; var index; for (var i = 0; i < options.length; i++) { if (options[i].checked == true) { index = i; choice = options[index].value; } } return choice; } Notice the indexing variables in the "if" statement and the assignment to "choice" are different. Does anyone have any suggestions on why this happens? Thanks. How can I style the background of a radio button? I have a form where it validates the users has selected one of the radio group values. If they don't the group gets focus and I would like to highlight the radio group. I tried the below it it seems focus goes to the correct group but no background changes. Now I know you can change the background of radios and apply a border of you would like. What am I doing wrong woth this. Code: <script type="text/javascript"> function validate(){ document.forms[0].myradio[0].checked = true document.forms[0].myradio[0].style.border='2px dotted #00f'; document.forms[0].myradio[0].style.backgroundColor='#ffff99'; } </script> <form name="test" name="theForm" onsubmit="validate()"> <input type="radio" name="myradio" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio" /> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <input type="radio" name="myradio2" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio2" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio2" /> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <input type="radio" name="myradio3" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio3" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio3" /> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <input type="radio" name="myradio4" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio4" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio4" /> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <input type="radio" name="myradio5" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio5" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio5" /> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <input type="radio" name="myradio6" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio6" /> <input type="radio" name="myradio6" /> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <BR> <input type="submit" value="submit" name="submit"> </form> |
