Get Text From Dynamic Dropdown
I have a dropdown that is dynamically populated. The value = a numeric code which I save in the DB. The text = the description. I know how to get the value of the selected item but I need the text of the selected item. I know how to do this in javascript but where I need to gather the text is during an ASP routine.
How do you get the text portion of a dropdown? I saw one post where you can add the numeric code and description together and then use split() to seperate them. I'd rather not do it this way. Is there another way?

I have a table called tblParts. The are 3 fields: PartID, PartNumber and Price. I have a dropdown box on my ASP page that is dynamically populated with PartNumbers from the database.
I have a text field for the price. I want it when the user selects a part number from the dropdown to display the correct price in the textbox for that part. I "DO NOT" want the page to reload.

I'm trying to build a asp dynamic list were you can select a option in the first list and depeding on that value the second list will change to match. For instance I choose a customer in the first list, the second list then has to give all the codes from that customer. The list is variabel, as the value;s are from a database.
If tried some stuff with ASP and Javascript, but the page reloads after selecting one option, but because it reloads, it delete's the text that is written in the rest of the form.

just a quick question that I need to now the answer to before I try is it possible to create a dynamic dropdown menu containing values that are not stored in your database.
Ok so I'm working on a schedualer that searches for time slots that are not free and displays these vaues if they are not contained in the database Quick example:
1st sept 10:00 taken
1st sept 11:00 free
but 1st sept 11:00 free will not be stored in the database therefore the dynamic dropdown will not be populated from a recordset.

I want to have dependent dynamic dropdown lists where the person can select the state, then county, then zip code, and all 3 of these menus will be populated by a database. I have a page that Ive been working on but I just cant get it. The page I am working on also refreshes when you select the state, then when you select the county it refreshes again but instead of populating the zipcode list it just takes the state name and inserts it into the city menu. Code:

I have a dynamic dropdown list that has info brought in from my SQL database. Based on the user's selection, I want to create a message box that informs a user that an additional step must be taken first before the form can be submitted. For instance:
Drop down list contents -
Estimate
Repair
Maintenance
Renovation
New Build
If a user selects "New Build" from the dynamic drop down, a messgae box would appear to let the user know that they need to have a permission form filled out before they can submit the work order. Something to that affect. Can this be done based on a selection in the list or do I need to use check boxes instead.

I have a page pulling some data from an MS Access DB, one of my columns is a "Application" column.

I've been farting around with trying to make some dropdown boxes populate based on the value selected from the first drop down box..
I have 3 DropDowns..
1)PumpType
2)PumpMfg
3)PumpModel
the first one takes all the pump types from a database table called pumptypes and populates it
the second dropdown gets its values from an sql query to a second database table called pumpdata that puts all the manufacturers that have that have a pump that matches the type selected in the first dropdown.
the third box does essentially the same thing but looks for all the models based on the values of the first 2 dropdowns..
whats happening is when I select the pump type it goes to the next page without allowing me to select the other 2 boxes.
heres the code I have .....

I have a dropdown box whose contents i want to automaticaly display in a accompanying text box when a selection is made in the dropdown. My dropdown box is populated by a access database query and when someone chooses one of the options, i want that option to display in the accompanying text box. I hope this makes sense. I'm not sure how to use the "onclick" javascript function.

I have two columns in my microsoft access database.
1st column is company_logo (jpg image)
2nd column is company_name (text)
I want to build a form, a dropdown box which I would populate with the help of a sql statement from my database. The both columns from up there are associated.
When the user clicks on that dropdown box, I need that company_logo and company_name to be shown one beside another. It should list all the companies availible (taken from that sql statement or recordset).
Does anyone knows if this could be done?
Maybe I should stick just with the textual part?

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.

i have been asked to create text boxes dynamically on a web site, the user can click a button and a new set of text boxes will appear. The user can add as many boxes as many times as he wants, I have created the text boxes already using the following code.
function inserttextboxs() {
var tab = document.getElementById("Difference")
var tr = tab.insertRow()
var tc = tr.insertCell("") tc.innerHTML = '< input type=text id=text1 name=text1>';
}
The problem is I don't if this how I should be doing it when I submit the form all the elements have the same id, I need to create something with unique id's so I can retrieve the different values

I am running into a very common problem that i cannot seem to find a solution for. I have an access database with a text field. Some of the records will contain an apostrophe. i have used the replace method to escape the apostrophe and turn it into ~~~. I can sucessfully change that back to an apostrophe everywhere but a text box. Here is my code:
response.write "<input type=text name=title" & icount & " value='" & replace(rs("title") ,"~~~", "'") &"' size=55><br>"

I need a text box to only take 6 digits. It should work like this:
If the user inserts say '89' form would actually send over '000089'. Likewise if they inserted 1234, again the form would send 001234, if they inserted 1 it would send 000001 and so on..
Yes, the easy way round this would be to give the users a message to input the data as 001234 for example, but is there any way this can be done dynamically?

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.

I have a category that I will call "company". in my access DB, there are about 6 or so companies. On another table, I have a list of locations that are related to these companies.
What I want to do, is have a drop down menu that lists all the companies. When you select the company, the second drop down menu will automatically populate with the locations of the company you selected in the first dropdown.
Anyone know any links to some examples of this? My google searches have been pretty fruitless since Im having a bit of a problem trying to explain it concisely (as you probably noticed).
