Reset a list after a reset of the dropdown selection

I have made a list. I've added some dropdown to sort the list. Once its sorted, I would like to be able to reset the dropdown back to nothing. (Accomplished that already). But the list doesn't update back to as if nothing was selected. How can I do that?
Code im using to manipulate the list:
<script>
$.noConflict();
jQuery( document ).ready(function( $ ) {
$('.container').on("change", 'select', function() {
var type = $('#BBFHtype').val().toLowerCase(),
surface = $('#BBFHsurface').val().toLowerCase(),
sticking = $('#BBFHsticking').val().toLowerCase(),
panel = $('#BBFHpanel').val().toLowerCase(),
height = $('#BBFHheight').val().toLowerCase(),
thickness = $('#BBFHthickness').val().toLowerCase();
var table = $("#BBFHDoors");
var trs = table.find('tr');
trs.hide();
var filtered = trs.filter(function(index, elem) {
var tds = $(elem).find('td');
if (type !== "all" && tds.eq(1).text().trim().toLowerCase() !== type) {return false;}
if (surface !== "all" && tds.eq(2).text().trim().toLowerCase() !== surface) {return false;}
if (sticking !== "all" && tds.eq(3).text().trim().toLowerCase() !== sticking) {return false;}
if (panel !== "all" && tds.eq(4).text().trim().toLowerCase() !== panel) {return false;}
if (height !== "all" && tds.eq(5).text().trim().toLowerCase() !== height) {return false;}
if (thickness !== "all" && tds.eq(6).text().trim().toLowerCase() !== thickness) {return false;}
return true;
})
filtered.show();
if (filtered.length == 0) {
alert("No Records Found!!!");
}
});
});
</script>
Code im using to reset the selections back to nothing:
$(function () {$("#btnReset").bind("click", function ()
{$("#BBFHtype")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
$("#BBFHsurface")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
$("#BBFHsticking")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
$("#BBFHpanel")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
$("#BBFHheight")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
$("#BBFHthickness")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
});});
Ive tried playing around with .prop and .attr(selected), and removeattr(). But haven't been successful. EX: $("#BBFHtype")[0].prop("selected", true);
Any help would be awesome!

Just trigger change on the select elements:
$('select').trigger('change');
Complete function:
$(function () {$("#btnReset").bind("click", function ()
{$("#BBFHtype")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
$("#BBFHsurface")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
$("#BBFHsticking")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
$("#BBFHpanel")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
$("#BBFHheight")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
$("#BBFHthickness")[0].selectedIndex = 0;
$('select').trigger('change');
});});

Change background color with checkbox, limited number of checkboxes selectable

Desired: User can only click on 2 out of 3 displayed checkboxes; when the user clicks on a checkbox, the checkbox background turns orange.
Currently: The first checkbox selected acts as desired. The second checkbox ticks, but does not change background color. Upon clicking again, it un-ticks and changes to the desired background color (yet it is not selected). A 3rd checkbox is not selectable whilst two are already selected.
Requesting: Help to achieve the desired, thank you!
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/0fkn1xs4/
Code:
$('input.playerCheckbox').on('change', function(event) {
var selectableFriends = 2;
if($('.playerCheckbox:checked').length > selectableFriends) {
this.checked = false;
}
numberCurrentlySelected = $('.playerCheckbox:checked').length;
if(numberCurrentlySelected < selectableFriends) {
$(this).closest("li").toggleClass("checked");
}
});

$('input.playerCheckbox').on('change', function(event) {
var selectableFriends = 2;
if($('.playerCheckbox:checked').length > selectableFriends) {
this.checked = false;
}
$(this).closest("li").toggleClass("checked", this.checked);
});
A slightly cleaner implementation that does what you want. Check out the JSFiddle

Try this:
$('input.playerCheckbox').on('change', function (event) {
var selectableFriends = 2;
if ($('.playerCheckbox:checked').length > selectableFriends) {
this.checked = false;
} else {
$(this).closest("li").toggleClass("checked");
}
numberCurrentlySelected = $('.playerCheckbox:checked').length;
});
Check it out here: JSFIDDLE

$('input.playerCheckbox').on('change', function(event) {
var selectableFriends = 2;
var numberCurrentlySelected = $('.playerCheckbox:checked').length;
if(numberCurrentlySelected > selectableFriends) {
this.checked = false;
}
if(numberCurrentlySelected <= selectableFriends) {
$(this).closest("li").toggleClass("checked");
}
});
I just changed the second part to <= rather than < and then created the numberCurrentlySelected variable earlier on so that you aren't calling querying more than once. Caeths is better though instead of using a second if statement it just uses an else, makes sense and gets rid of a comparison.

DEMO
$('input.playerCheckbox').on('change', function(event) {
var selectableFriends = 2;
numberCurrentlySelected = $('.playerCheckbox:checked').length;
if(numberCurrentlySelected <= selectableFriends) {
$(this).closest("li").toggleClass("checked");
}
if($('.playerCheckbox:checked').length > selectableFriends) {
this.checked = false;
$(this).closest("li").removeClass('checked');
}
});

This works in Fiddler for ya.
$('.playerCheckbox').change(function() {
if($('.playerCheckbox:checked').length > 2) {this.checked = false; }
else{
if( this.checked == true ) {$(this).closest("li").addClass("checked");}
if( this.checked == false ) {$(this).closest("li").removeClass("checked");}
}
});

Number elements by class and get placement of specific div

I have a list like this:
<div class="list"></div>
<div class="list"></div>
<div class="list on"></div>
<div class="list"></div>
... etc
I get the total like this:
var count = $('.list').length; // 4 in this case
But I want to write a function that selects the next div with the down arrow, and I can't figure out how to get the next div, select it, and deselect the current div. This is what I have now, but it doesn't work:
var visible = $('.list:visible');
var on = $('.list.on:visible');
if (e.keyCode == 40) { // down key
if(on.length == 0) {
visible.first().addClass("on"); // this works
}
else if( // div placement // < count) {
var next = on.next(); // this part doesn't work
on.removeClass("on"); // :(
next.addClass("on"); // :(
}
else { // if its the last div
// do nothing
}
}

You can do:
if (e.keyCode == 40) { // down key
if(on.length == 0) {
visible.first().addClass("on");
}
else if(on.length && on.next("div.list").length > 0) {
var next = on.next("div.list");
on.removeClass("on");
next.addClass("on");
}
else { // if its the last div
// do nothing
}
}
A quick demo: http://jsfiddle.net/GL7tA/

You can work with .index() to see which item is currently "selected":
var $items = $('.list:visible'),
$selectedItem = $items.filter('.on'),
selectedIndex = $items.index($selectedItem);
if (selectedIndex == -1) {
$items.eq(0).addClass('on');
} else if (selectedIndex + 1 < $items.length) {
$selectedItem.next().andSelf().toggleClass('on');
}

You have a syntax error in the else if ( part, where you say it doesn't work.
It doesn't work because the else if is expecting a condition to evaluate but you are not even closing the parenthesis of that if condition, neither have you openned the brackets for its block.

Twitter Bootstrap - Scrolling to #ID using Carousel Images

I am working on twitter bootstrap carousel in a project and have to customize it to apply a custom animation like marquee tag animation. Each item should slide like marquee text element.
I am stuck here and cannot go ahead. Do i have to specify some scrolling time to delay the scrolling between items or something else? (I know we can use interval attribute for time to delay between automatically cycling an item, but i could not achieve marquee effect using it)

Maybe this can help you...
Step 1
Add this JavaScript to your page.
$(function() {
function filterPath(string) {
return string
.replace(/^\//, '')
.replace(/(index|default).[a-zA-Z]{3,4}$/, '')
.replace(/\/$/, '');
}
var locationPath = filterPath(location.pathname);
var scrollElem = scrollableElement('html', 'body');
$('a[href*=#]').each(function() {
var thisPath = filterPath(this.pathname) || locationPath;
if (locationPath == thisPath
&& (location.hostname == this.hostname || !this.hostname)
&& this.hash.replace(/#/, '')) {
var $target = $(this.hash), target = this.hash;
if (target) {
var targetOffset = $target.offset().top;
$(this).click(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
$(scrollElem).animate({scrollTop: targetOffset}, 400, function() {
location.hash = target;
});
});
}
}
});
// use the first element that is "scrollable"
function scrollableElement(els) {
for (var i = 0, argLength = arguments.length; i < argLength; i++) {
var el = arguments[i],
$scrollElement = $(el);
if ($scrollElement.scrollTop() > 0) {
return el;
} else {
$scrollElement.scrollTop(1);
var isScrollable = $scrollElement.scrollTop() > 0;
$scrollElement.scrollTop(0);
if (isScrollable) {
return el;
}
}
}
return [];
}
});
Step 2
Add an around the images in the carousel - with the ID of the containing element you want to scroll to inserted in the href="#ID"
Then make sure there is a div on the page with the matching ID (if there is not, it won't do anything).
This works amazingly well for me - I know bootstrap will probably have something like this built in, but this works 100% of the time.
Cheers!
I can't remember where I got this code, but if anyone knows I'd like to give credit to them as it's an awesome piece of code.

Show/Hide & Mouseover Javascript

I been researching on Show/Hide javascript and pushed it further with a mouseover effect to achieve what I want. I've set up a Fiddle for better accessibility. However, I now want to push it by having up to 4 different text areas ("Click here for more information"), and each text area would have more hover text as I tried to show in the HTML code itself. The javascript that I used and edited now has "ID"s corresponding to "0" and "1" which wouldnt work for my current HTML code as it has funky names like "uu3308-10" (made with Adobe Muse). Now, I'm wonder what variables would I have to change within the Javascript to make it function properly and is there a way to compile this code so it works with at least 11 other "Click here for more information" points?
Note: The current javascript makes showMoreText2 appear under both showMoreText areas (would like to make only one hover text appear at a time).

Thanks, I hope this was helpful enough. =)

kinda hackish: (see http://jsfiddle.net/vy6nS/30/ )
window.onload = function() {
var elems1 = document.getElementsByClassName("expander");
for (i = 0; i < elems1.length; i++) {
elems2 = elems1[i].childNodes;
for (x = 0; x < elems2.length; x++) {
if (elems2[x].className == "toggle") elems2[x].onclick = function() {
showMore(0, this);
};
else if (elems2[x].className == "showMoreText") {
elems2[x].onmouseover = function() {
showChilds("block", this);
};
elems2[x].onmouseout = function() {
showChilds("none", this);
};
}
}
}
};
function get_nextsibling(n) {
x = n.nextSibling;
while (x.nodeType != 1) {
x = x.nextSibling;
}
return x;
}
function showChilds(disp, elem) {
get_nextsibling(elem).style.display = disp;
}
function showMore(disp, elem) {
var children = elem.parentNode.childNodes;
for (i = 0; i < children.length; i++) {
if (disp == 0 && children[i].className == "showMoreText") {
children[i].style.display = children[i].style.display == "none" ? "block" : "none";
}
}
