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.
Just 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've got this listbox and this text field on an ASP page. Now I want the item I click on in the listbox to appear in the text field and I can't find the code nowhere for what seems to me such an easy thing to do.

I am making a world cup fantasy football league between a few buddies and i want for each person to view points stats etc on a web page which connects to a database.
On one of these pages which i want help with has a list of Managers, and when a manager is selected it will show in a data grid their chosen squad of players.
I can get a page to select each teams squad, but at the moment i only know how to do that as a set of unique pages for each team which would be time consuming to do. Therefore a drop-down list of the team names would be a lot easier if it could update the page when a value is selected. Code:

I want an ASP page with a dropdown and a simple button. Every time the user
chooses an item from the dropdown and clicks on the button i want that value
written below in list and allow user to select more.
Also how can these choices be saved somehow so tha when the user goes to the
next page the choices he made can be written to the database. For example
The choices in the dropdown may be:
London
Dublin
Paris
New York
When the user chooses Dublin I want ti written below the dropdown. Then when
he chooses New York. I want it added to london. so that it displays
Dublin
London
Then when he click next button these two choices are taken over to the next
page where an insert query can be used to insert them into the db.

View Replies View RelatedI am trying to learn and use good DHTML concepts and code (assuming they are needed). My current issue concerns how to handle this situation.
I have a Select List box which displays values based on what value is selected in a dropdown list. For example, my dropdown list contains a class name, and the Select list contains all of the students who are registered for that class.
So what I would like to occur, is when the user changes the class from the dropdown box, the Select List is re-created displaying the students who are enrolled in that class.
I thought I could do this without having to reload the page (with DHTML) but here is my problem. Code:
What I want to do is that I have created text box on one form so whenever user type something init and click search button then I want to display that text box value on other form so that i can retrieve a record according to that user's number... Code:
View Replies View RelatedI'm building a page to update an existing database entry. On the form to do so, I have a basic select option menu as such:
<select size="1" name="ColR" style="width: 115px">
<option value="FFFFFF">White</option>
<option value="000000">Black</option>

<option value="4B0082">Indigo</option>
<option value="9400D3">Violet</option>

I'd like to have the option that matches the current value in the database field display as the selected option. I know it's easy enough to manually force one option or another to be selected, but how could I change which one it is based on the database contents?
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.
View Replies View RelatedI 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 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 2 queries on one asp page, usually I only run query 1 as default, But I hope there is a text link called "Run query 2" and when I click it, my asp file will run query 2.
View Replies View RelatedI 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).

i've made a calendar that uses newsitems from an access database.
Every newsitem is a record (newsID, date, title, fact).
When the page is loaded for the first time a visitor looks at that page, I want to set the calendar to the newsitem that is closest to the present, but lying in the past. So, today we are the 13th of October. In the database, i've got two items with date "the 2nd of October" and "the 25th of September". The query should return me the 2nd of October. Of course, when that newsitem did not exist, then the query should return me the 25th of September.
