How do I make a dependant drop box? For example, when a user selects Item5 on the first drop menu the second one populates with the options for Item5? I know it will probably use Java of some sort but I do not know the code.
View RepliesI got a form with many text boxes, checkboxes and 3 drop downs. From that 3, 2 are dependant. I can choose one drop down, and the next drop down should display the dependant values of the first drop down chosed. And I have a submite button to submit all these values to DB.
First problem: I cant keep the value of the selected text in the first drop down. It always goes back to the first value. (but the asp site extension changes accordingly).
Second problem: when the value of second drop down is updated, then the text I inserted in those text boxes, and the checkboxes i checked disappears!
I know its because the site is submitted again to update the second drop down. But how could I keep the values of other elements even though the drop down is updated?
I need to populate a list box with values that will be determined by the selection of another list. What it is, is when we add a user, they get added to a city, eg Townsville and then there are a heap of groups that only apply to Townsville people.
So once I select Townsville as the location, I want to perform a search in AD and return the list of groups in the Townsville OU.
I am not exactly sure of the appropriate method to handle this in asp. If necessary, I could make a third page and just pass values to that from the second page. Is there a better way?
In case you are wondering, there are currently two pages. One is for use by supervisors/managers, and they fill out some details which get put into a URL that is emailed to the administrators.
Clicking on the link fills out the base form for the admin people, but I want them to have more access and to see more than the managers/supervisors that are submitting the request.
whether anyone had any knowledge of the use of dependant drop downs? For example i would like to choose a product based on the type i.e computer hardware, monitor etc then a list of all products of the same type be displayed in a following dropdown.
Any examples of similar things done, urls to try, your own experience? How simple is it to implement?
I want to have a drop down menu, that when you select an option, loads data from the database into another drop down menu. So that's one part I don't know how to do. There will be a total of three options from the first dropdown, which represent different tables in the same database. So that's the other problem, how to load, depending on the table selected, into the drop down menu.
View Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a function on a navigation page so I can just include the nav page on my other asp pages this way I only need to edit one file when I need to update the navigation system.
The problem I have is that if I try and do this with the response write statement how I can't use " inside the strings i.e
sub dropnav()
Response Write "<form name="form1">"
Response Write "<div align="right">"
Response Write "<select name="menu1"
etc etc
end sub
How do I store " inside a variable called say SP so I can do this?
Response Write "<form name="&SP&"form1"&SP>"
I am am guessing there must be a way you can store an asci value into a variable. But what is the command for this and what is the ascii code for "?
Finally is there I way I can write a drop down menu purely in ASP so I can avoid putting the HTML code inside strings?
The reason I have to have it the ASP code is simply I want to call the function that outputs the drop down menu in other pages, if I did not do a function it would not work as it would output the drop down menu at the top of the or whereever the include statement is.
I have a search page with 5 drop down menus(where data pulled from access database.
how do i give the select query , which will bring out results depending on the search critieria/fields set by user.
for example
the fields are first name, last name ,city, age,education.
if a particular city is choosen i want al the rows that matches the city filed.
if age and city are choosen .i want the results which has the age in that particular citty.
I have a simple data entry form that has text boxes and some drop-down menus per row. My problem is the performance of the page.
I give the user the option of displaying 25, 50 or 100 rows at a time. Each row has 12 text boxes and 4 drop-down menus. The OPTIONS for the drop-down menus are being populated with data from our MS SQL database.
I'm using VIEWS to get the data and place them in recordsets, but how can I increase performance. It's taking way too long for the page to load and if the user clicks submits.. that takes a long time too.
I have an asp form that submits information to a database. On this form, I have a drop down box with about 15 options, each with thier own value. The selection is down a bit in the form, after user fills out certain information.
On the same form, I have a hidden value stated for "assigned_to" field. Most of the options in my drop down menu need an "assigned_to" value=35 and one option needs an "assigned_to" value=40 . How can I do this?
I've only recently begun using asp so i'm not that good, but my problem is this:
The navigation for my site is within an include file. However I have an inlcude navigation file for each section but the only thing that changes from file to file is the name of the section you are in, this seems a bit un-necessary.I.e contact, home, about us etc. Is there a way I can use asp to write the name of the section and so only need one navigation include file?
you must have heard this a 100 times.. but how do i fill a dropdown box dynamically based on the value selected in another dropdown box from a database?

I am having trouble with the ordering page. I would like a dynamic form list to look at a database and when the user selects a product code, the text boxes containing description and price change too to reflect the product code.

Im putting my website together, and I have made some simple text buttons that are aligned across the top of my page from left to right.Anyway, I have with this navigation a need to have more navigation options, which I hope to gain by having sub-menus appear when you roll over the button.
What I mean is how do I or can someone point me to a tutorial that will allow me to have a dynamic drop down menu generated via asp with data from a access databse that will allow the user to navigate to that sub menu content.
Hope you can help with a small problem I am having. I have a very simple table displayed on a page -
ID Name
1 x
2 y
3 z
and what I am trying to do is this - Roll over the ID number and display a pop up menu (which has more links to run other ASP scripts) and pass the ID number from the original page, though the pop-up menu and into the final ASP script (as selected on the popup menu) as a parameter for an SQL query.
I am trying to figure out how to pass one selectedIndex value to another select menu on a subsequent page without opening the page in a new window. I know how to pass information from one text field to another using Request.form or a Session, but I am not certain how this works with select menus. I have seen other examples that require you to open a new window, but again I would prefer not to do this.
I have two different select menus. This appears on the first asp page.
<form class="fbox-form" name="form" action="" method="post"
<select name="movietype" onchange="this.form.action=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value">
<option value='' "> </option>
<option value="dvd.asp">DVD</option>
<option value="tape.asp">Tape</option>
<option value="reviews">Revews</option>
</select>
<select name="area">
<option value=" ''> </option>
<option value="North">North</option>
<option value="Southwest">Southwest</option>
<option value="East">East</option>
</select>
<input name="continue" type="button">
</form>
The next page has the exact same select menus as above and I would like it to populate the same value the user chooses from the first form page. I should state that the first select menu does redirect the user to different pages, however it should not matter because the above options for the select menus are consistent on all the pages the user is redirected to. I'm assuming the answer to my query will consist of utilizing ASP and JavaScript, however if not, I'm still game.
Does anyone know where I can find any resources for dynamically creating pop out menus using a database backend for the links?

View Replies View RelatedI currently have a page with car manufacturers in a dynamic form menu. Users can select one and click submit to find available cars by that manufacturer. What i now need is a second menu on the page where when a manufacturer is selected, the models associated with that manufacturer display for a user to choose. For example if Ford is selected:
Menu One Menu Two
------------------ -----------------
Ford Focus
Fiesta
Ka....
Can i do this with ASP to say "if menu one is ford, menu two contains...."? Or is there a much easier way which i am somehow missing?
what is the best way to highlight menus...as in like being in a particular section? like this:
my menu is database driven and in order for me to show it selected, i have to put something like menuid=12 a querystring.

this is what i'm doing so far but it seems terribly inefficient. does anyone have any suggestions?
i'm trying to create a dependent dropdown menu based on two objects, packages and steps (the steps dropdown will be dynamically updated/populated when a package is selected). the site uses ASP and since ASP is server-side, i am using JavaScript to handle the client-side "dynamic" change.
i've found several snippets of code that create the dependent dropdown; however, the two examples i have use arrays which are statically defined. the data that will populate the dropdowns is coming from a SQL database, and that data will be updated/changed fairly often. my question is this: is there any way to generate the arrays using ASP (outside javascript tags) and use them in the javascript?
or is there a way to use javascript to generate the correct arrays and fill them with data from my SQL tables? can i use a recordset ojbect in javascript? i have heard that you may use PHP inside javascript tags, but i'm unsure if that is what i want to do.. especially since i am using ASP as the main language for this site.

<select name="zoneid" onChange="reloadNetworks()">...</select>
<select name="networkid">...</select>
I have four pull-down menus and a GO button. Each menu contribute a parameter to an URL query string (like asp?a=1&b=2&c=3&d=4) where variable a is return from menu1, b returns from menu2 etc.

The code that I have has 2 drop down boxes dd1 (visible) and dd2 (hidden). Based on the option selected in dd1, dd2 should be visible and populate options. I think I can have OnChange script but how could I return the value and put it in the SQL query (see variable in red in thecode)? Code:

In one of my ASP pages, I have a Combo box that gets the information from a sql database,
the number of records that is shown in the combo box is too much (around 6000 records),
the user has to select from these records (let say the user is looking for "George", by clicking
"G" the list goes directly to the first records starting with "G", so far everything is ok, now he/she
enters "e" (the second letter of "George"),this time the list goes to the first record starting with
"e", which is not the way that I want the user to find his/hers record.
I hope that I have explained it correctly, what I need is, after entering the second letter of
"George", the list moves to the records starts with "Ge", and by entering the third letter, list
moves to those records starting with "Geo" and so on.
