View Replies View RelatedJust getting started with ASP (NOT .NET) and have a question:
I have a basic form and I'm trying to add some functionality to it. I want
a user to be able to select a product from a list box. After this product
is selected have another text box, ProductID update to reflect the product
number.
In VB I would use an OnChange type thing. Can anyone point me how to do
this with an ASP page or using some kind of embedded script?
I have an .asp page containing a form with (multiple) select/dropdown boxes. The page is submitted to itself.
Is there any way of retrieving the selected values (i.e. the text) in the select boxes server-side?
I'm looking for something like Request.Form("Select1").Value.
how would I go about setting the <selected> attribute of a jump menu to one representing the current page? background info: i have a template-based site employing a jump menu as the navigation, but for usability's sake it needs to not reset back to the first option in the menu, but rather hang on to the current page as the 'selected' option. example of similar HTML showing the hard-coded 'selected' option I need to change: Code:
<form name="form">
<select name="menu1" onChange="MM_jumpMenu('parent',this,0)">
<option value="page1.asp" selected>page1</option>
<option value="page2.asp">page2</option>
</select>
<input type="button" name="Button1" value="Go" onClick="MM_jumpMenuGo('menu1','parent',0)">
</form>
I am doing server side asp form validation, the form posts to itself and if all the values are accepted the values are inserted into an access db...
I have several list/menu with static value options.
The problem is when I submit the form and another value is incorrect, each list/menu is reset to the initially selected value as defined in dreamweaver (in my case 'Please Select').
With text inputs I can easily set the value to the value passed through the form, however it's not as simple for a list/menu.
Is it possible to change the 'selected' option based on the variable passed?
It's annoying in the sense that even though the user has selected an option, if they make a mistake elsewhere they always have to reselect their list/menu choice...
I have a dropdown menu with parents' names, and on the same page when a name is selected (through an onChange event), another drop dpwn boix containing student names change according to the parent selected.
But I want the Parent drop down box to contain the parent's name who was selected, and although the event works, it just keeps displaying the first name of the list of parents even after a different parent is selected.
I have a simple form on my site with a drop down list for users to search for a specific category. The search works fine and populates my results page with the correct responses.
Alongside the results I have included the search form again so that users can modify their search, however I am unable to pre-populate the drop down menu with the previously selected category.
I have tried an IF statement but this only works when I hard code the variables in. Please can you cast your expert eyes over my code, I have a feeling I am suffering from fatigue as I have been trying to solve this for some time now. Code:

View Replies View Relatedcan someone give me an example code for how to retrieve the selected value from a drop down menu in ASP. i have been trying something like this:
<%response.write(request.form("selected"))%>
but it doesn't display anything.
I have a form that I would like to create. My primary concern is 2 drop-down menus. The contents of the second drop down menu depend on the selection of the first drop-down menu.
For example: In the first drop-down menu, I want to select a department, and after a department is selected, I want to be able to select one of that department's employees from the second drop-down menu. Of course the content of the employee menu will depend on which department was selected.
I've been experimenting a little bit with my Access database, but how I design that really depends on suggestions I get here, so let me know what you think.
EDIT: I should also mention that the contents need to be read from the Access database, rather than storing everything in a javascript array. In this way, I can have Human Resources add new departments and employees via a web form so that I don't have to manually edit code every day.
I have an access database called contact.mdb and I have linked to it just fine and used the records held in it to populate a datagrid and can update and delete records.
I don't understand databases that much but I would like to read the values into a drop down menu which are held in the field 'ID' from a table called 'courses'. I have a feeling it is something to do with data sets but am not too hot on these either.

I am creating a "search by category" page using a drop down menu. I am very new at SQL/ASP and am having trouble with the correct syntax for sorting my search results.
Each category in drop down has an id ("catid"). Results need to show all Company names that fall under that specific category in alphabetical order. I have already completed a directory that is sorted alphabetically and tried to "borrow" some of that code:
I have an asp page with several txt feilds and drop down menus
on. I can validated as "required feilds" with the following code:

The validation below is for a drop down menu with mr, mrs, ms etc,
it doesnt work no matter how i try and solve this.
if (new_ex.elements["title"].value=="")
{ str_err += ("
Please enter your title, for example Mr or Mrs") }
Can anybody shed some light on this: Ive exaused all ideas.
