I would like it to be - cat=(list index that is selected)
I was wondering if you could help me with the following problem. I have 2 listboxes in my webpage, 1 has cities, and the other lists the streets of the city from the first listbox.
When I click on a city, I want the 2nd listbox to populate with all streets in the city. The city and streets are saved in a database, so when the user selects the city, I will run a query on the database and populate the 2nd listbox with all streets.
How can I do this with normal ASP? I know how to do this with ASP.NET, but don't know how to activate this with normal ASP?
How can I select certain names and have them transferred to a text box ie.
if I click Ford, Honda, Volvo I want it to update the textback like [ Ford Honda Volvo ] when I click each one (like in hotmail when your select email addresses.
i want to be able to select one of the values and press my edit button (this should read in the curent listbox value and then remove all of the text except the bit to the right of the ":" this should then be put into a query string) ....
after a lot of searches to see if i can get such a code on the net, i've finally come to ask my questions here bcoz i can see bits of code here n there on net but not what i really want.
i have a form with a listbox(lstduty) on it. i have been able to populate it with data(dutyName)from table 'duty' from a sql server 2000 database.
now when a user makes multiple selection and click the 'add' button, i want to be able to add it to another table in the database as below: Code:
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 have a survey/member form that gathers information. I would like to have a drop down list on a page that a user selects, either 1, 2 or 3.If 2 or 3 I would like to show on the form another field for information gathering ie:if a user has 1 cat, fields for cat name, sex & age show.
if a user has 2 cats, 2 fields show instead of one for each, and the same for 3.....
I want to populate a listbox from a database. This listBox will contain the value of the Table PK. Whenever i chose an ID the input fields in the form below will change corresponding to the PK.
I have 2 drop down menus with data populated dynamically from a database.
Category
Subcategory
If i select an appropriate category the subcategory should change instantly to show the subcategories relating to the selected category. But i can't use a form submit, because before the forms are other textboxes with other values that i don't want to wipe on a page refresh.
I need to somehow preload the categories and their related subcategories. I've been trawling through examples, most are harcoded combobox values which won't work for me.
I have a dynamic table asp/vb that is returning records as expected. There are 7 fields that are returning boolean values based on whether there is or is not a meeting on those given days.
My table is returning TRUE and FALSE and all I want to do is create an if or select statement that will detect the values in these fields and change them as follows:
If true, then field = "R" (Wingdings2 R is a checked box) If false, then field = "T"(Wingdings2 returns a x'd out box)
I have virtual directory where I run test.asp page with only this code inside:
<%Response.Write now()%>
As a result, if I go into the IE and browse for the test.asp page, I get : 1/22/2004 14:18:04
If I copy this page on some other(existing) virtual directory, I get as a result 22.1.2004 14:19:06
If I create a new virtual directory and I copy the page there, I get : 1/22/2004 14:18:04
Seems like that IIS takes english date format even if my regional setting is : d.M.yyyy and I would like that date on the page is always like this: 22.1.2004 14:19:06
Is it possible to change the selected default option in a listbox on the 2nd page to the option selected in a listbox on the 1st page which ..i.e preventing the selected option from changing to the default option on the 2nd page (both the list boxes have the same value)...i am having a listbox which gets populated from a database using ASP.
I want to make a listbox which will show the results of two fields (the ID and the Name) of one table , but the one field (ID) will be the one to pass.
I have a drop-down with 40 option values and only one option should be selected of the 40 options. The list size should be 1.
When I click on the list, it drops down 30 options (a very long list) with a scrollbar for the last 10 options.
Is there any way, when I click on the list it drops down only 5 options (as if the list is of size 5) and allow a scrollbar to browse the remaining 35 options.
Code is: <select name="deplist" id="deplist" <option value="Commerce">Commerce</option> <option value="Instru">Instrumentation</option> ... similar such 38 options </select>
I have 6 list boxes and it may or may not have data from db to get fill in. so what happens is whatever has data that comes to the size of the maximum length of the data in that list box and others comes as very small width as there are no data. but what i want is all list boxes width should be of moderate size. how can i make those empty list boxes appear as moderate size. I dont have an option to put an default item in the db to load with that
Im new to asp and I'm having trouble with listboxes. I have two listboxes, the first is populated from a database and I need to fill a second listbox with items from the database that are dependant on what was selected in the first list box.
the listbox on the left contains the names of employees
the listbox on the right contains the names of employees selected from the listbox on the left (ie by hitting the buttons they move across)
when I submit the form which those two list boxes sit on - I want to access the list on the right
currently on use valus=request.form("RListBox") - then I split the returned value from valus etc - however this ONLY works if I select each item in the listbox (making each entry highlighted)
what I would like to do is itinerate through each item in the listbox and get its (option) value. Code:
I would like to create a listbox control in asp.net that has the capability of multiple columns like the Windows.Forms.ListBox control.
I have searched high and low and have only found advice such as concatenating the strings into one or using a ListView which do not seem ideal to me.
Would it be possible(and fairly easy) to create a Custom User Control, fill it with multiple listboxes and then programatically change the selected indexes of all of the ListBoxes when the selectedindex of one is changed?Custom Web Controls is another option but its apparently more complex to implement.
if it is possible to narrow in on an item within a listbox of states. For example, right now if I type "W", I will immediately drop down to those states beggining with "W".
However if I type "WI", I go to the top of the list with those states beginning with "I". I would like to continue to zero in on the state by dropping down to those that begin with "WI". Is this possible and if so, how do I go about doing it?
I would like to be able to use an autocompleting listbox - that is, one where you can select an item in the list by typing the first few characters; the standard IE listbox only responds to the first character.
I'm happy to pay a few quid for a 3rd-party component/activex control if necessary but I imagine something equally good could be done with client-side code.
I found out that I can't get the value of a disabled field with Request("myField"). An alternative could be 'readonly', but my field, that is a listbox <select>, doesn't have this attribute.
I have a listbox whose MULTIPLE selected values are retrieved using
Request.Form("<listboxname>")
This returned a comma separated array.I am gonna display these values one below the other on the screen. When i retrieve the values from the array using ArrayName(0),ArrayName(1),etc.. the values along with the COMMA are also displayed. When i Remove the Comma with a function like this..
somevariable=Instr(ArrayName(0),",") -1 It errs....
How to remove the comma while displaying?anyother method?
I have 2 tables in my database, AUTHORITY and AREA. I have 2 listboxes on my ASP page. The first one selects all from AUTHORITY. I have one recordset so far, obviously pulling out these values from AUTHORITY.
What I want is to have listbox 2 automatically populate with values from AREA where a field = the value of AUTHORITY. I know this can be done with onChange events in Javascript but I can't work it out.
How do I get rid of the borders in a ListBox? There are atributes for TextBox and Image but I can find no way to do it for ListBox. What is CssClass artibute? If its the Css style it does not work either. Unless it has to be somewhere else rather then on the page, I tried it few times.
i have this form, which contians list boxes. wen a user selects his choice n clicks submit button. it gives an error of type mismatch. wat changes shud i make in my database table's datatype wen recieving data from a listbox? i tried selecting TEXT but it didnt work. cud there b another reason for this error?
You should know the difference between the javascript and asp error. When the page cannot be displayed then it is ASP error and the line number mentioned will be the one in the actual asp file. When the page can be displayed and the error pop up then it is the javascript error, for this kind of error you have to check the source file for the line number.
I hope now u will be able to differentiate the error and to look for the correct line which is causing the error. Back to the error you have mentioned. Does the main_head.asp have the javascript function called alterTab()? Remove this include file and try whether it cause the same error.
I have a database table called Pumpdata. This table contains all the different pumps available. I had to make 2 other related tables one called pumpType which is just a description of Pump Types. ie.. (single, double, mixer etc..) and the other table is PumpManufacturer which contains a list of Pump Manufacturers.. the 2 tables are related to the pumpdatatable based on the TypeID (in PumpType) and MfgID(in PumpManufacturer)..
Ok the problem I'm faced with Is I need to create a form to get a particular pump based on the Pump Type, The manufacturer, and then the specific Model Number..
The First list box alllows the user to select the Pump Type, The second ListBox allows the user to select the manufacturers based on the pump selection. (Note in the pumpdata table there could be an occurance where a particulatar PumpManufacturer could have several Pumps of the same type (I just need to show one occurance of the PumpManufacturer here). Code:
I am creating an update user module. and the dropdown boxes are DB driven. But when i pass the user details to this form i have problem highlighting the selected option in the listbox.
I would like to create a DB driven listbox. one recordset is used to list all the countries into the list. the 2nd recordset is used to add the selected value. But I could only list all the countries into the box and not able to preselect the country. Below is my code and hope someone could highlight to me my mistake. Code:
I joined the group few days ago after discovering that this forum has a lot to offer and the forum threads also pops up on my google desktop almost every 5mins giving me an update on the forum.
Actually,i have a problem here.After fighting with the code found below for several weeks,it turned out to be successful.
The code is suppose to automatically load dropdown boxes from a database based on a given value from previous page,say from 1 to infinity,but after loading,it ignores the first record in each of the listboxes.Can someone help me out with this?What have i done wrong? Code:
