Populating Text Fields Based On Drop Down Box Selection
I am working on a small application for senior users, so I want to limit the option for incorrect input whatsoever. I have a drop down box that is populated from a query and I want to make it so that when an option is selected, the pertinent text fields are populated based on the selection.
All the info I need is already being extracted from the query so its just a matter of displaying the right info based on the selection. I have been looking for examples of code but they all seem to use javascript. I am not too strong in javascript so I kinda avoided those. if there is a pure asp example, that would be fine!

I was wondering if someone could help me with finding out how to populate a drop-down box with values queried from a database.
Also, I was also wondering if someone could help me with figuring out a way to place field-values retrieved from a table into a text field. This would be for the purpose of editing a record that has previously been entered.
Placing the information in a texbox field so that the user can easily type over it seems like the best thing to do.

ASP/javascript with a drop down populated by an access database. The drop down works fine but I cant figure out how to get it to change a value of a text field.
I want the value in the text field to change to reflect the data in another column in the table, same row. Code:

I m having three combo boxes on my asp page.
For 1st, i m fetching values thru a query.
For second, I want to populate it with values thru a query by giving the selection from first combobox as input.
Similarly for Third also i want to populate it with values using query by entering selection from second combobox as input.
So in other words second combobox is dependent on first and third combobox is dependent on second combobox.

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:

I have a check box, when selected it needs to trigger "something" to populate two drop down lists with default values. I haven't done this before, so I was hoping to see if somebody had a good example willing to share.
I was doing a research now and realized that I also need to mention it needs to populate values straight away not on the submission.

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 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 have a recordset full of a list of courses.I want to create a search page, where the user can select the course from a drop down box, hit go and be taken to a page on that course. But some courses have 3 versions of that course, so for example I have 3 IT courses. so in the list it says
IT
IT
IT
How can I limit this to just display the value once in the drop down?

I get all excited to to pump some data into these PDFs that some loan-sharks want to use on their intranet, and then I find that the Adobe Acrobat SDK doesn't support .NET (which they said they did); however, one may access a little "tip" from Adobe if one joins their dev community for the low annual fee of $195.00. Has anyone taken advantage of these features of Acrobad Pro 6.0 in .NET? I'm going to try, but some "tips".

I writing an asp application that uses three listboxes. the first one lists departments ids the second list box populates either users or supervisors based on which button is pressed ( users button and supervisors button).
If a user is selected from the list the submit button redirects to page1.asp. if a supervisor is selected the same submit button redirects to page2.asp My question is how can I submit the form without using more than one submit button.

What I would like to happen on this page is that when a user selects a company name from a drop down list, his selection autopopulates the cID field based on the selection. The drop down list is getting its choices from the customer table.
As I am still a novice, I am sure there is a way to do it I have not been able to get it right. Code:

im looking at populating a drop down box with database values when a user selects a value from another drop down box.I have a drop down list that populates from database values, it is a list of manufactures. When a user selects a manufacture i want it to display all the systems for that manufacture which will be stored in a table. I understand that because asp is server side that once an option is selected the page would have to submit and then load the values in.

i have a form with fields that contain data from a db. the fields can then be edited, and on the click of the "submit" button, the updated information is returned to the database, replacing the old. a bonus would be arrow buttons allowing navigation from one record to the next, with the information populating the form each time. i'm having a hard time with this.

I'm trying to pass information using POST. The first screen the user selects a company, and that variable is passed to the second page. On the second page, I am trying to populate a drop down list of usernames, but only those usernames that have the same company as the one selected on the prior page.
For some reason, the drop down list does not fill up with any names, and the rest of the form comes up blank(i.e. password, login, reset). Are there any glaring errors in this code? Code:

I need to have my ASP form "post" action=? pass to a different confirmation page based on a radio button selection on the form, after submit.
Depending on which radio button they click on, they will receive the same confirmation but then be redirected to a selection specific page, based on the radio button selection. I'm assuming I need to create several different action pages, each with a different redirect, then have the radio button determine which action page the form is directed to based on the radio button selection.
I've tried several different options, such as creating a variable on the form, sDirectionVar, with redirect conditions, but I don't know how to call that on submit? I'm not sure I'm even going in the right direction.

I am trying with very little success to populate two drop down boxes in the same form when i do i get an error saying page cannot be displayed.
They do not need to be linked to each other in any way but they get the data from the same table I am new to ASP so this might be pretty easy to resolve.

We have a web site IIS 5 (on Win2000k) with Oracle 9i backend (Sun unix).
There is 1 user ID to oracle(APT_W3) that is used by all users (50).
We have a global.asa file that has one APP Start connection string using OLE
DB:
Application("dbConnString")="Provider=MSDAORA.1;Password='SDERSD';User
ID=APT_W3;Data Source=CCEWSDD1_new;Locale Identifier=1033;OLE DB services=-1"
The first page that a user sees asks that they select the area they want to
see (western, northern, etc) from a dropdown menu. Once they select it and
hit save they can go to other pages, session varibles indicating what area
they selected are then passed to pages. Currently all areas are in one
database.
What we want to do is have areas in separate dbs, a northern one, a western
one.etc. Each will have separate user ids (APT_W2N, APT_W3W,etc).
We want the users to have the web page presented to them where they select an
area. Based on the area they select, the appropriate conneciton string will
be used (the one in the global asa). Code:

I working on an ASP page that has a drop down list that gets its contents from a SQL table.
Can anyone show me how to use the selected item from the drop down list and use it as a parameter in calling SQL stored procedure (this procedure simply updates a table so there are no result sets).
I have designed my page to include a submit button and was wondering if it is possible to call the procedure as soon as the submit button is clicked. I get really confused with whether to use a server side or client side script.

I'm working on a project, trying to create an HR hiring intranet page. Basically, here is problem. I have a table in a database called "Title Access" that lists titles, and has software, email, and user rights associated with each title. For example, Network Administrator will get Office, Dreamweaver, be part of the IT and Admin groups.
Now, here is the issue: Whenever the user types in the name, pay rate, hire date, and title on the intranet page then clicks "submit", I want the database to create a new user in the "employee" table with that name, and populate the access rights in that table with the rights associated with the title. Thus, the "employee" table will now include "John Doe", and will have Office, Dreamweaver, IT, Admin checked off. Is there any way to do this????????????

I have a form on one page where someone selects a bunch of options and details about a specific category. Then on the next page they fill out a form with contact information, name, address, email, etc.
Well what I want to know is when they click Submit on that contact form is there a way to have it so it goes through and searches the database for any that match the state and county(which they will select from a )??
So what I basically want right now is for the first form to be filled out, then the second form to be filled out, then when they are submitted it will go through the database and select everyone in there with that state and county, then on the next page display the results of both forms AND the matches in the db(obviously whatever fields I want it to display).
I already have both forms(basic html), I already have the dynamic dropdown for state and county(classic asp), what Im wondering is how do I put that dynamic dropdown in the contact form and then when submitted it will go through and search the db based on what was selected there. Would this be some sort of onClick for the submit button tellin it to search the db based on the dropdown or how would I get started on something like this?
There will be other information on the dropdown like name address email so one problem I was wondering about was my dropdown menu. When you select the state it refreshes the page and then loads the counties, so wouldnt that erase anything that was filled out on the form?
I could make it so they actually type the name of their state and county but that causes problems too because if they mispell either then it wont return any results.

i have a page which displays a list of events searched for by a particular date. we usually have a lot of events and i don't want the user to have scroll through all of them, especially if they're interested in a particular type of event.
i have created a dynamic drop down menu which consists of all the event types. how can i got about displaying the events returned by the query to a specific event for that date.
so for example, if some one searches for 03/08/2005, they will initially get a list of all events for that day. if they click on "Closed" from the drop down menu, it will display all the "Closed" events for 03/08/2005.
