JavaScript - Dropdown Is Not Sticking/falling Back
I have a dropdown box "select Term" which has options Spring 2011, Summer I 2011, Summer II 2011, Fall 2011. alongwith another dropdown box which is populating from oracle DB. When the select term option changes, the second dropdown values changes( populate from the DB). When I change the option of the first one (i.e. spring 2011 to summer I 2011) I can see the query string canges:
https://localhost/term/index.php?frmTerm=201107 and also I can see the second dropdown(populates from DB) changes according to the first selection No problem....BUT the first one is falling back to the default one" select term"as soon as the second list populates.Here is my code and I would really appreciate if you help PHP Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"> <head> <SCRIPT language=JavaScript> function reload(form) { var val=form.myTerm.options[form.myTerm.options.selectedIndex].value; self.location='index.php?myTerm=' + val ; } </script> </head> <body> <?php include('conn.php'); ?> <form name = "schd" id="schd" action="drplist.php" method = "post"> <?php $var_term; @$term=$_GET['myTerm']; echo"<td>"; print "<select name='myTerm'onchange=\"reload(this.form)\">\n"; //1st dropdown code $query_term = "select term_code from myterm"; $stid_term = OCIParse($conn, $query_term); OCIExecute($stid_term,OCI_DEFAULT); print "<option value=''>Select Term</option>"; while (OCIFetchInto($stid_term,$row)) { foreach($row as $item) { //print "<option value='$item'>$item</option>"; if($item ==201101) { $var_term = "Spring 2011"; } elseif ($item == 201106){ $var_term = "Summer I 2011"; } elseif($item == 201107) { $var_term="Summer II 2011"; } elseif($item == 201109){ $var_term ="Fall 2011"; } else { echo "noterm"; } }//end foreach print"<option value = '$item'>$var_term</option>"; }//end while print "</select>\n"; OCILogoff($conn); echo " </td> "; print "<select name='frmPrefix'>\n"; //If the term is Summer I if(isset($term) and $term =='201106') { $quer="SELECT DISTINCT SUBJ_CODE||'-'||SUBJ_DESC FROM SUMMERI WHERE TERM_CODE = '".$term."' "; $stid_secdrp1 = OCIParse($conn, $quer); OCIExecute($stid_secdrp1); while(OCIFetchInto($stid_secdrp1,$row)) { foreach($row as $item) { print "<option value='$item'>$item</option>"; }//END OF FOREACH }//END OF WHILE }//end of IF ?> </body> </html> Similar TutorialsI am reading/writing cookies to control which default page the user will land on. Works fine in FireFox, but on Safari, the cookie tends to stick and will not change. Here is my code: Code: // this function reads the pulldown menu's selected item, tells the cookie writing function which index number it is, then goes to that page.
function myJumpMenu(oSrc)
{
url = oSrc.options[oSrc.selectedIndex].value;
selectorIndex = oSrc.selectedIndex;
//alert(selectorIndex);
write_cookie(selectorIndex);
goNow();
}
//sets the default on the pulldown menu
function setDefault() {
document.forms[0].elements[0].selectedIndex=selectorIndex;
}
// Writes the cookie
// I get the right number on the first alert, but it doesn't change the cookie
//second alert gives me the old cookie value
//so if I chose "1" I'd get an alert of "1", but document.cookie alert says "language=5"
function write_cookie(lang) {
alert(lang);
document.cookie = "language=" + lang + "; expires=Wednesday, 01-Aug-2020 08:00:00 GMT";
alert(document.cookie);
}
Hi, I'm trying to integrate an address finder (http://www.craftyclicks.co.uk/) into my shopping cart (OsCommerce). I can get it to work but I need to add my own functionality. I'm not very experienced with JavaScript and my head has entered an infinite loop by now. The problem is that the address finder script can change the selected country in a drop-down list depending on the postcode entered by the user (using the onblur event handler). What I need it to do is to remove all other countries depending on the postcode. I can get it to remove all other countries but how do i return to the original list of countries when the postcode is changed again? Once all other counties are removed, the drop-down list will obviously only have one option left... I guess the question is also how does a function remember what it has done before, when it is called again? I have written this short test script as it is easier to work with than the craftyclicks oscommerce contribution: Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"

Many thanks! Martin hey guys The first dropdown has some options as : abc(a) bcd(a) cde(b) def(b) efg(c) fgh(c) The second dropdown has : a b c On selecting abc(a) in first dropdown the 'a' must get selected in second dropdown,on selecting cde(b) second dropdown must have 'b' and so on,also the second dropdown value should be disabled(grayed out) for user.Need the code in javascript.ty in advance. Hello, I am completely new to HTML/JS/CSS, therefore I know very little. I have two drop-down prompt controls with month names. One has just one value (say "July") and the other has all the months of the year ("January".."December"). The first prompt control is hidden on the page. How do I set the default selection of the second prompt control to the value present in the first prompt control? So, when the page is run, the second prompt control should automatically show "July". I was reading up on the selectedIndex property (?), but I know that it won't work because I want Index 0 to be selected in the first control and Index 6 in the second, and I expect it to change every month (next month it will be index 7 that should be automatically selected). If it matters, I am using IE8. Thanks! Hi, I have two dropdown lists with the second one being dependent on the selection in the first. Options in list 1: 1,3 or 4 List two should be enabled when 3 or 4 is selected in list 1. So far so good, managed to get it to work with only one set of lists, but I actually have 18 of those sets in this form: Code: <select name="fw[$i]" id="fw[$i]"> <option value="1">FWH</option> <option value="3">links</option> <option value="4">rechts</option> <option value="0" selected></option> </select><br /> <select name="lie[$i]" id="lie[$i]" disabled="disabled" onchange="showBox($i,xxx);"> <option value="0" selected>---</option> <option value="1">gut</option> <option value="2">schlecht</option> <option value="3">Strafschlag</option> <option value="4">OB</option> </select> $i is my index generated by my PHP script and runs from 1 to 18. Everything works just fine as long as the index is not in play. With the index my function breaks, most probably due to my inability to extract the second parameter (xxx above) from the selection field. Here's my function, there could be something wrong there too with how exactly to specify the proper dropdown list to enable. Code: function showBox(field,val) {
if (val > 1) {
var box = 'lie[' + field + ']';
document.form1.box.disabled == false;
}
else {
document.form1.box.disabled == true;
}
}
Finally, I'm not that adept in javascript programming, more like a trial and error guy, how has hit the wall with this problem. Thanks in advance! Joe i have the following code which i am trying to insert a 'back button' into to go back to the previous page. i can only seem to get the button to appear either at the very top or very bottom of the page, does anyone know how i can specify the location? this script is generated from easypano tourweaver - Code: <html>

here is the button code - Code: <span onclick="javascript:history.back()" style="text-decoration:underline; color:blue; cursor:hand">Back</span> Not sure how to explain this but...... Using a meta refresh to display a thankyou page for 5 seconds after a form submit, then return to form. If user clicks back to return to main page from form, returns to thankyou page instead, and has to go back to form again, then back to main page. I can have thankyou page return to main page, but would rather return to form. This is what it should do: main page -> form -> thankyou page -> form -> main page This is what it does: main -> form -> thankyou -> form -> thankyou -> form -> main Is there any way to remove thankyou page from history? Hi, I currently have a <div> with a <p> and have an edit button that when clicked will transform it into a textarea using jQuery's .html(). I also have a cancel button which allows the user to cancel the edit and return the textarea to the previous content, any ideas how I do this? JavaScript Code: // JavaScript Document
jQuery(document).ready(function(e) {
$('#edit_p').click(function(e){
$('#cancel_p').show();
$('#greeting').html("<textarea id='txt_greeting' cols='20'>" + $('#greeting p').text() + "</textarea>");
$(this).hide();
});
$('#cancel_p').click(function(e){
$('#edit_p').show();
$(this).hide();
});
});

I'm still a noob at JavaScript and well things like this just doesn't make sense. when I go to alert this function in IE I get undefined. But other browser gives me a value. What am I doing wrong with this function? Code: function ext() {
var img = document.getElementById('photoSmall');
img = img.src;
if (typeof img == 'string' && img != 'undefined') {
var typeis = img.substr(-4);
if (typeis == '.png' || '.jpg' || '.gif') {
return typeis;
}
}
}
Thanks Jon W Hello there, I'm a 30yr old returning to school and I signed up for a CMIS102 class, thinking it be more explanatory as the syllabus let on. But I was wrong. While I do understand some of what the professor has been teaching us, like modular programming and IfElse statements, I can't wrap my head around things like While Loops. My professor has saddled us with a couple assignments, requiring us to write in pseudocode and I was wondering if anyone could explain what he wants from this assignment or even help me with it, that maybe I can finally have a grasp of it, and will know what I'm doing on the final. ~Tia P.S. I've posted the assignment question below: I need to write a pseudo-codepseudocode for the following question but don't know how: Write a program to read a list of exam scores (in the range 0 to 100) and to output the total number of grades and the number of grades in each letter=grade category. The end input is indicated by a negative score as a sentinel value. (The negative value is used only to end the loop, so do not use it in the calculations. Example: 88 93 55 77 100 -1 (The output would be) Total number of grades = 5 Number of A's =2 Number of B's = 1 Number of C's =1 Number of D's = 0 Number of F's =1 Must prompt user to run again I need a back to top link on the bottom of my page that stays there all the time while people are scrolling.. is this possible? is this close to what i'm looking for? http://javascript.internet.com/page-...ting-link.html i've seen it on some other sites but I can't find any to reference now... I'm totally new to this! thanks for your help! -B I am not sure if this has been posted before but I need help with this. When a user clicks on the back button I need them to be directed to the previous page and still have their original selections and not the defaults. Here is the rest of code on the back button. At the moment this is not working. <input id=STDBUTSHORT type="button" value="Back" onClick="history.back();">') Thanks in advance. I am making a simple puzzle game on Android using Phonegap, that is HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript. When a user fills an answer on a page, if the answer is correct, it will go to another page. However, once the user goes to the next page, he/she CANNOT return back to the previous page. I do not want the user to return back, else he/she will have to fill the answer again to go to the next page, so it's not good. Thank I need an html page that when visited automatically redirects the browser to return to the previous page it was on. here is the current code I have: Code: <head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />

this works in firefox but in IE you have to press ok in the alert box before it returns. I admit I am a javascript novice. Any suggestions hi i have a html page that has a link "OPEN POP UP" when this link is clicked a new pop up window is opened. and this pop has two LINKS first is ONE and second is TWO. what i want to do is. when any of these LINKS is clicked on the popup the should close and the my main html page from where the popup came should execute a javascript function. please help Hello there, This seems to be a bit of a sore topic on the forums but at least I think I have good reason for wanting to do it - I've written a script that displays tooltips when your mouse hovers over a link - all this is fine, but when I click on the link and move to another page, then click the back button on the browser to go back, the tooltip for the link I clicked is still visible! It'd be great if there was a way of detecting the button had been pressed so that I can hide it... p.s. I tried onclick = "tooltips.hideToolTip(4); return true;" for the links but no joy... Many thanks Edd While these questions have probably been asked before, separately, I'd like to know how to put them together. What I want to do, is create a link, that goes to an url that I decide, after which, the page goes back to the previous page and refreshes. It would be ideal, if that could be done with AJAX, but that's probably asking too much. Especially if I want to use it for wordpress. |
