Drop Down Box
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.

On one of my client's sites, we set up a subdirectory off the
app's root directory that doesn't allow the Anonymous IUSR_
account in. When we (the system admins) follow a link to
that directory, it presents the standard NT Challenge login
screen. We need to know proper Windows credentials to get
in -- and once we do, we have access to higher-order functions
(to change the read/write bit on files, to delete files,
etc. through the web interface). All that works fine.

On my page I have 3 drop downs that are populated with static data. When my user makes a selection in either drop down I want to show my HTML table associated with that drop down selection, also the data in my tables are all static.
For example.
if the user selects CAR - New in dropdown 1 I want to show a list of my new cars
if the user selects TRUCK in dropdown 2, I want to hide my CARS and show my TRUCK list
if the user selects BOATS - Fiberglass in dropdown 3, I want to hide (if shown) CARS, and TRUCKS and show my boat list.
For now all of the data is static (don't ask) so I need to do all of this on the client. Is there a way to do this either using JavaScript, Div tags, CSS, etc.

I have a drop down box which selects an item. I want to execute an SQL query and display the results depending on which item is selected. I need this to happen as soon as the item is selected, ie without clicking any buttons. How do I go about this?

I have a sql query that I wish to use in a drop down box. For instance a user would pull down a drop down box and select their name from the list... that would set the name equal to a variable. I know how to do an input box. and I know how to do the sql query ... but how do I put the query in the dropdown box?
The query is roughly this, assume that I have the syntax corrrect for the query (the exact syntax is at work atm and it is working without the box) . I have done my connect statements and such also.
"Select name From Worker"

I want to select a value (that comes from a query) in a drop down list. I have the drop down list working - but when I click the submit button it goes back to the first value instead of keeping the value that was selected in the field. I want to use this value later to select from another query.

I have a database with fields like; age, hair colour, height, eye colour and more. I wanted to allow a user (on a webpage) to choose from a selection of these catagories, for example age drop down box displays; under 16, 16-21 etc.
The user then selects the one appropriate and when presses a submit button, this is then stored in the database. I want it to be accessible, so the user can edit it if necessary. I realise im going to have to use values in the drop boxes, but am not sure how to approach it.

I have a dropdown box populated with a list of parents names on a page, and when you select a name, it uses the onChange method to change the names of students in a second dropdown box on the same page (this is done through stored procedures and it does not submit to a new page. this is all done on one page).
My problem is I do not want the student drop down box to appear until after the parents name is selected.

when we select a value from a drop-down box, we no need to press a button to retrieve the value that match with the value selected for another drop-down box.
example:
when we select Fish name, then no need to press a button we can retrieve the fish type that belongs to that particular fish name.
As i know, we need to press a button to pass the value to retrieve the new value from database. when there are few drop-down box that using same method, this will waste a lot of time to retrieve the data. cant it be shown automatically?

Can someone point to an example where dynamic drop-downs are populated? I would like to execute a sql statment and populate the items in dropdownbox1. I would also like to retrieve all possible values for dropdownbox2 and use Javascript to build an array that holds these values.
Then, I would like to scroll thru the array to select the correct values for dropdownbox2 based in the selection made in dropdownbox1. At last I would like to save the selected values for dropdownbox1 and dropdownbox2 to the database. I would appreciate very much if someone can give me code examples for each of the things listed above.

I'm sure an ASP programmer would be able to create this function within 5 minutes, but I'm just learning and I've fumbled my way through creating a little site content management system for a local community group. I'm a designer and the site looks great (so I'm told) but I just can't get this last page to work. I'm desperate for help!!!
I'm trying to call the values for a drop-down list from a seperate categories table in Access, to add/update records in a main Access table/query. The page/form is used to:
a) diplay/edit existing records; or
b) add new (if cstr = "").
I have finally managed to display the correct selection in the drop-down list for existing records (not sure if code is correct?) but I can't work out how to write changes (edit record) back to the database; or 'save' a new record? I'm also not sure if I should be trying to write data to the table or query? Code:

I have a search form with a drop-down box that is populated by several location names. Each location name has a corresponding locatino ID in the ACCESS database. The code looks like this:
<select input name="searchLocation">
<option selected>--Select a Location--</option>
<%=TF_GetLocationSELECT(Request.Form("location"))%>
</select>
I now want to do a search of an ACCESS file using this box. The relevant search code looks like this:
If Trim(Request.Form("searchlocation")) <> "" Then
strSQL = strSQL & " AND location = " & Cint(Request.Form("searchlocation"))
End If
Now, if someone selects a location, then EVERYTHING WORKS GREAT! However, if he makes no selection, and leaves the drop-down box with the words "--Select a Location--", then I get an error message saying:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a000d' Type mismatch: 'cInt'
What I want is that when the user doesn't enter a location and leaves the drop-down box with just the words "--Select a Location--" then the search must search of ALL locations.
What do I do?

I need to be able to edit a drop down box is asp. On my web app I
populate a drop down box from a databse. The user can then select an
option that will then be saved to a Database for example
Mr
Mrs
Miss
but if the option is not their e.g Dr, Prof etc then I want them to be
able to enter in the drop down box and then I will save this to the
database.
I know that I will have to have a function to dynamically re-populate
the Drop down box to include this option once the new value has been
entered, so that it will be included in the POST method.
But I can't even edit the text. I have tried
<SELECT>
<OPTION selected contenteditable=true> value="Mr">Mr</OPTION>
</SELECT>
and
<SELECT contenteditable=true>
<OPTION selected> value="Mr">Mr</OPTION>
</SELECT>

I'm orking on an online Catalogue, users are to select from a dropdown menu the finish they wish there goods in. The way I was thinking of doing this is have the finishes availiable stored in a column in the database - lets say 'finish' and the column would contain the finishes seperated by commas.. like red,blue,green,yellow etc, so the pull down menu would need to dynamically populate with these values.. is there an easy way of doing this, or am I going about it the wrong way?

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.

What I need is a field that is a drop down and when selected if less than four it needs to show a new field to select.
Once the total of the drop downs adds up to 4 or above then no more are created. This would be in the middle of a bigger form. Code:

I have a form that will add a device to a database. What I am having a problem with is that I have two drop down boxes. One is a building number and the other one is a room name. Because there are many room names that are the same in many of the buildings and some room names that are not in all of the buildings, I have created a table called buildings and another table called rooms.
I have a drop down menu that displays all the building numbers and what I want to be able to do is when I select the specific building number, another dropdown box appears showing all the room names for that specific building. I also what to be able to keep the information already on the form intact. As an example, a user puts in information on the form such as the machine name, username and then selected a building name, which would then show the rooms in that specific building, maintaining the information of the machine name and username on the form. There are seven items on the form, which the user must include prior to submission of the form.
