I have two select dropdown lists:
<select name="internal_message">
<option value="yes">Yes</option>
<option value="" selected="selected">No</option>
</select>
and
<select name="internal_message_agent">
<option value="">Choose</option>.... etc
</select>
I have tried:
<select name="internal_message">
<option value="yes" onClick="document.getElementById('internal_message_agent').disabled=!this.selected;">Yes</option>
<option value="" selected="selected">No</option>
</select>
but it doesnt work - how can i get it working to disable the internal_message_agent select element to be disabled when the internal_message selected value is "No" and enable it when the selected option is "Yes"
Add an ID to each select and use jquery to disable it like so:
$('#box1').on('change', function(){
if($(this).val()==='no'){
$('#box2').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
}else{
$('#box2').attr('disabled', false);
}
});

Here's what it would look like with Javascript and HTML.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
</head>
<script>
function validate(){
var b1 = document.getElementById("box1");
var f = b1.options[b1.selectedIndex].value;
var b2 = document.getElementById("box2");
if(f == "no"){
b2.disabled="disabled";
}
else{
b2.disabled="";
}
}
</script>
<select id="box1" onchange="validate()">
<option id="yes" value="yes">Yes</option>
<option id="no" value="no" selected="selected">No</option>
</select>
<select id="box2" disabled>
<option></option>
<option value="">Choose</option>
</select>

I'm trying to get multiple drop down boxes to open when selecting different prompts from an original drop down menu.
So for example the original drop box would say "Continent" then drop down to a list of continents, when you select a continent a new box opens that asks you "Country" then you select a country and a new drop box opens to select a state.
I've been using this template
<script type="text/javascript">
function CheckDepartment(val){
var element=document.getElementById('othercolor');
if(val=='others')
element.style.display='block';
else
element.style.display='none';}
function CheckOption(val){
var element=document.getElementById('misc')
if(val=='misc')
element.style.display='block';
else
element.style.display='block';
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select name="color" onchange='CheckDepartment(this.value);'>
<option>pick a color</option>
<option value="red">RED</option>
<option value="blue">BLUE</option>
<option value="others">others</option>
</select>
<select name="othercolor" id="othercolor" onchange='CheckOption(this.value)' style='display:none;'/>
<option value=""></option>
<option value="hi">hi</option>
<option value="misc" id="misc" >misc</option>
</select>
<select name="third" style='display:none;'>
<option value=""></option>
<option value="first">first</option>
<option value="second">second</option>
</select>
but I can't get a third drop box to open when selecting an option from the second drop box.
edit: third box. I think i deleted my last try so this was kinda a recreation of it from what I remembered. I'm also incredibly new at all of this and don't know if anything I tried makes sense.
Here's a simplified demo.
(It assumes only a "yes" value should trigger the display of the next dependent dropdown.)
const
select1 = document.getElementById("select1"),
select2 = document.getElementById("select2");
document.addEventListener("change", handleDropdownDisplay);
function handleDropdownDisplay(event) {
let changedElement = event.target;
if ((changedElement != select1) && (changedElement != select2)) {
return;
}
if (changedElement.value == "yes") {
changedElement.parentElement.nextElementSibling.classList.remove("hidden");
} else {
changedElement.parentElement.nextElementSibling.classList.add("hidden");
}
}
div {
margin-bottom: 0.5em;
}
.hidden {
display: none;
}
<div>
<label for="select1">Show level 2?</label>
<select id="select1">
<option value="no">No</option>
<option value="yes">Yes</option>
</select>
</div>
<div class="hidden">
<label for="select2">Show level 3?</label>
<select id="select2">
<option value="no">No</option>
<option value="yes">Yes</option>
</select>
</div>
<div class="hidden">
<label for="select3">Would your rather</label>
<select id="select3">
<option value="brains">Eat monkey brains</option>
<option value="vba">Write code in VBA</option>
</select>
</div>
(Btw, level 3 doesn't automatically become hidden whenever level 2 becomes hidden. This is probably functionality you'll want to add.)
I have this jquery to check a radio button on page load:
$('input[value="modelos"]').attr('checked',true);
And then I have a dropdown list:
<select id="talents_meta_category" name="talents_meta_category">
<option value="tab_1495127126289">Modelos</option>
<option value="tab_1495132259463">Música</option>
</select>
How can I have input[value="modelos"] checked only if and when <option value="tab_1495127126289">Modelos</option> is selected?
You need on change condition with if like this :
$("select#talents_meta_category").change(function () {
if ($(this).val() === "tab_1495127126289") {
$('input[value="modelos"]').attr('checked',true);
}else{
$('input[value="modelos"]').attr('checked',false);
}
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select id="talents_meta_category" name="talents_meta_category">
<option value="">Please Select</option>
<option value="tab_1495127126289">Modelos</option>
<option value="tab_1495132259463">Música</option>
</select>
</br>
<input type="checkbox" name="modelos 1" value="modelos"> modelos 1<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="modelos 2" value="modelos"> modelos 2<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="modelos 3" value="modelos"> modelos 3<br>
Checkbox dynamically change based on condition (select option value)
You can try this, but I had to put in a blank option into the menu, however if that's unacceptable let me know and I'll do something else.
$("select#talents_meta_category").change(function () {
if ($(this).val() === "tab_1495127126289") {
$('input[value="modelos"]').attr('checked',true);
}
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.12.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select id="talents_meta_category" name="talents_meta_category">
<option></option>
<option value="tab_1495127126289">Modelos</option>
<option value="tab_1495132259463">Música</option>
</select>
<input type="radio" value="modelos">
You can check whether a option by testing the value attribute of the select
$(function(){
if($('#talents_meta_category').val()){
$('input[name="favorites"][value="modelos2"]').attr('checked',true);
}
})
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select id="talents_meta_category" name="talents_meta_category">
<option value=""></option>
<option value="tab_1495127126289">Modelos</option>
<option value="tab_1495132259463" selected>Música</option>
</select>
<label for="modelos"><input type="radio" name="favorites" value="modelos"></label>
<label for="modelos"><input type="radio" name="favorites" value="modelos2"></label>
You can use onchange function.
$("#talents_meta_category").on('change',function(){
let value = $(this).children("option:selected").val();
if(value=="tab_1495127126289"){
$('input[value="modelos"]').attr('checked',true);
}else{
$('input[value="modelos"]').attr('checked',false);
}
});
Something like this should do the trick:
// Your check the radio on page load
$('input[value="modelos"]').attr('checked', true);
// Check if `modelos` is selected
if ($('input[value="modelos"]').prop('checked')) {
// Add the `selected` attribute to the <option />
$('option[value="tab_1495127126289"]').attr('selected', true);
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type='radio' value='modelos' />
<select id="talents_meta_category" name="talents_meta_category">
<option value="tab_1495127126289">Modelos</option>
<option value="tab_1495132259463">Música</option>
</select>
Hope this helps,
You can do it many different ways, here is just one....
var checkMe = 'tab_1495127126289';
$(function(){
$('input[name=talents_meta_category][value=' + checkMe + ']').prop('checked',true)
});
I have several select tags. What I want to do is, if in one of them let's say option one is selected, option one to be disabled in the other select. I have to following code snippet, but it seems like nothing works, or I have inserted it wrongly, or there is something that does not match?
var $selects = $('select');
$selects.on('change', function() {
$("option", $selects).prop("disabled", false);
$selects.each(function() {
var $select = $(this),
$options = $selects.not($select).find('option'),
selectedText = $select.children('option:selected').text();
$options.each(function() {
if ($(this).text() == selectedText) $(this).prop("disabled",
true);
});
});
});
$selects.eq(0).trigger('change');
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select name="option" size="1" style="width:80px;" required>
<option value="" selected disabled hidden>Rank</option>
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
</select>
<br />
<select name="option" size="1" style="width:80px;" required>
<option value="" selected disabled hidden>Rank</option>
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
</select>
Thank you very much in advance!
Use attr function instead of prop function.
$(this).attr("disabled", true);
I have 2 select tags which come with the same option, male and female. One of the select, "age" is hidden.
<select name="gender">
<option value="1">Male</option>
<option value="2">Female</option>
</select>
<select name="age" style="display:none;">
<option value="12">Male</option>
<option value="18">Female</option>
</select>
When user select "male" in "gender", I wish the "age" will automatically select "male" as well. I expect the same thing as "female". How to achieve this through javascript?
You can attach an event change to your select gender and set the value of age on every change.
Note that both elements should be loaded with a default selected value for case that the end user do not select nothing and also check that it is better to move inline styling style="display:none;" to a separated css file.
Code:
var gender = document.getElementsByName('gender')[0],
age = document.getElementsByName('age')[0];
gender.addEventListener('change', function() {
age.value = (gender.value == 1) ? 12 : 18;
console.log('Gender:', gender.value);
console.log('Age:', age.value);
});
<select name="gender">
<option value="1">Male</option>
<option value="2">Female</option>
</select>
<select name="age" style="display:none;">
<option value="12">Male</option>
<option value="18">Female</option>
</select>
Here's an option using jQuery.
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#age").val("12");
$("#gender").change(function() {
var userselected = $(this).find(':selected').text();
if (userselected == "Male") {
$("#age").val("12");
} else {
$("#age").val("18");
}
});
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<select name="gender" id="gender">
<option value="1">Male</option>
<option value="2">Female</option>
</select>
<select name="age" style="display:inherit;" id="age">
<option value="12">Male</option>
<option value="18">Female</option>
</select>
How to use onClick() or onSelect() with option tag? Below is my code in which I tried to implement that, but it is not working as expected.
Note: where listCustomer domain object list getting in JSP page.
<td align="right">
<select name="singleSelect" ">
<c:forEach var="Customer" items="${listCustomer}" >
<option value="" onClick="javascript:onSelect(this);> <c:out value="${Customer}" /></option>
</c:forEach>
</select>
</td>
How do I modify it to detect that an option is selected?
Neither the onSelect() nor onClick() events are supported by the <option> tag. The former refers to selecting text (i.e. by clicking + dragging across a text field) so can only be used with the <text> and <textarea> tags. The onClick() event can be used with <select> tags - however, you probably are looking for functionality where it would be best to use the onChange() event, not onClick().
Furthermore, by the look of your <c:...> tags, you are also trying to use JSP syntax in a plain HTML document. That's just... incorrect.
In response to your comment to this answer - I can barely understand it. However, it sounds like what you want to do is get the value of the <option> tag that the user has just selected whenever they select one. In that case, you want to have something like:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeFunc() {
var selectBox = document.getElementById("selectBox");
var selectedValue = selectBox.options[selectBox.selectedIndex].value;
alert(selectedValue);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="changeFunc();">
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
Even more simplified: You can pass the value attribute directly!
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeFunc(i) {
alert(i);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="changeFunc(value);">
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
The alert will either return 1 or 2.
The answer you gave above works but it is confusing because you have used two names twice and you have an unnecessary line of code. you are doing a process that is not necessary.
it's a good idea when debugging code to get pen and paper and draw little boxes to represent memory spaces (i.e variables being stored) and then to draw arrows to indicate when a variable goes into a little box and when it comes out, if it gets overwritten or is a copy made etc.
if you do this with the code below you will see that
var selectBox = document.getElementById("selectBox");
gets put in a box and stays there you don't do anything with it afterwards.
and
var selectBox = document.getElementById("selectBox");
is hard to debug and is confusing when you have a select id of selectBox for the options list . ---- which selectBox do you want to manipulate / query / etc is it the local var selectBox that will disappear or is it the selectBox id you have assigned to the select tag
your code works until you add to it or modify it then you can easily loose track and get all mixed up
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeFunc() {
var selectBox = document.getElementById("selectBox");
var selectedValue = selectBox.options[selectBox.selectedIndex].value;
alert(selectedValue);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="changeFunc();">
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
a leaner way that works also is:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeFunc() {
var selectedValue = selectBox.options[selectBox.selectedIndex].value;
alert(selectedValue);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="changeFunc();">
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
and it's a good idea to use descriptive names that match the program and task you are working on am currently writing a similar program to accept and process postcodes using your code and modifying it with descriptive names the object is to make computer language as close to natural language as possible.
<script type="text/javascript">
function Mapit(){
var actualPostcode=getPostcodes.options[getPostcodes.selectedIndex].value;
alert(actualPostcode);
// alert is for debugging only next we go on to process and do something
// in this developing program it will placing markers on a map
}
</script>
<select id="getPostcodes" onchange="Mapit();">
<option>London North Inner</option>
<option>N1</option>
<option>London North Outer</option>
<option>N2</option>
<option>N3</option>
<option>N4</option>
// a lot more options follow
// with text in options to divide into areas and nothing will happen
// if visitor clicks on the text function Mapit() will ignore
// all clicks on the divider text inserted into option boxes
</select>
in this example de select tag is named as: aula_clase_cb
<select class="form-control" id="aula_clase_cb" >
</select>
document.getElementById("aula_clase_cb").onchange = function(e){
id = document.getElementById('aula_clase_cb').value;
alert("id: "+id);
};
<div class="form-group">
<script type="text/javascript">
function activa(){
if(v==0)
document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = true;
else if(v==1)
document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = true;
else if(v==2)
document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = true;
else if(v==3)
document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = true;

document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = true;

document.formulario.vr_negativo.disabled = false;}
</script>
<label>¿Qué tipo de vehículo está buscando?</label>
<form name="formulario" id="formulario">
<select name="lista" id="lista" onclick="activa(this.value)">

</select>
<br />
<input type="text" id="form vr_negativo" class="form-control input-xlarge" name="vr_negativo"/>

You can change selection in the function
window.onload = function () {
var selectBox = document.getElementById("selectBox");
selectBox.addEventListener('change', changeFunc);
function changeFunc() {
alert(this.value);
}
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Selection</title>
</head>
<body>
<select id="selectBox" onChange="changeFunc();">
<option> select</option>
<option value="1">Option #1</option>
<option value="2">Option #2</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Cars</title>
</head>
<body >
<h1>Cars</h1>
<p>Name </p>
<select id="selectBox" onchange="myFunction(value);">
<option value="volvo" >Volvo</option>
<option value="saab" >Saab</option>
<option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
</select>
<p id="result"> Price : </p>
<script>
function myFunction($value)
{
if($value=="volvo")
{document.getElementById("result").innerHTML = "30L";}
else if($value=="saab")
{document.getElementById("result").innerHTML = "40L";}
else if($value=="mercedes")
{document.getElementById("result").innerHTML = "50L";}
}
</script>
</body>
</html>```
Other option, for similar example but with anidated selects, think that you have two select, the name of the first is "ea_pub_dest" and the name of the second is "ea_pub_dest_2", ok, now take the event click of the first and display the second.
<script>
function test()
{
value = document.getElementById("ea_pub_dest").value;
if ( valor == "value_1" )
document.getElementById("ea_pub_dest_nivel").style.display = "block";
}
</script>
Change onClick() from with onChange() in the . You can send the option value to a javascript function.
<select id="selector" onChange="doSomething(document.getElementById(this).options[document.getElementById(this).selectedIndex].value);">
<option value="option1"> Option1 </option>
<option value="option2"> Option2 </option>
<option value="optionN"> OptionN </option>
</select>
If you need to change the value of another field, you can use this:
<input type="hidden" id="mainvalue" name="mainvalue" value="0">
<select onChange="document.getElementById('mainvalue').value = this.value;">
<option value="0">option 1</option>
<option value="1">option 2</option>
</select>
