Is it possible to have multiple drop down lists in asp.net mvc?
What I'm trying to do is have a drop down list, say with many colours, Red, Green, Blue, Black etc. Then next to it a text box which the user can enter a number.
However there should be then a small + little sign next to it so that another drop down list appears underneath it allowing the user to select another colour. The number of times they can add drop down boxes should ideally be unlimited. Is this possible? I know I can put hidden drop down lists underneath them then enable/show them when the user clicks the + button, but this will only mean a limited number of drop down lists!
Thanks
This has nothing to do with ASP.net mvc. It is a pure JavaScript. Use jQuery to add ddl dynamically.
Sure, you can add as many pull-down menus to your page as you like (and it sounds like you are comfortable with the scripting to do so). Just make sure to add a unique name to each of those menus so you can access the values in your controller.
you can add an ajax action link that will update a div with a drop down list and the same div. So you can add as many dropdown list you want.

Ive looked around a bit and not found anything so im not even sure if this is possible.
What I want to do is have a drop down list. Each list item is a specific type of a view for a list. Is it possible to add an icon at the end that when clicked will fire off a different action to just selecting the item?
So the user opens the drop down. They see View 1. At the end there is a pencil button image. If they select View 1 the list view changes. If they select the pencil it opens up the edit View dialog for that view.
Is this even possible using javascript/jQuery?
It won't be do-able with the standard select element, however it's definitely possible using divs and heavy Javascript/jQuery.
Something similar to how the jQuery plugin Chosen works - it hides the original select element and rebuilds it with divs, adding interaction with jQuery (obviously).
I'm having this issue where I have a table that depending on what option I select for the first column, the next column which contains a drop down, will populate with the appropriate values that users can select.
Here's an example
When the user submits the form, they're brought to a results page and have the option of going back to the first screen (where they select the drop downs etc).
Currently, I'm using the window.history.go() function to go back to the previous pages. However, the dynamically created drop downs aren't retaining the value that the user selects (the option that is at the very top of the drop down is always selected).
I'm currently using PHP for the scripts to generate the tables. Is there a way to fix this? Just need someone to point me in the right direction.
Thank you!
u can use history.pushstate(url+'#idx=x') when dropdown changes. and load the param values into dropdown when page loaded
I'm trying to create a product page layout that allows a customization of a product. Basically, a series of drop downs with each successive drop down populated with options based on what has been selected so far. So like this:
Drop down 1: Product Variant (user selects productvariationb, drop down 2 then is populated with options for productvariationb).
Drop down 2: Product color (user selected productvariationb in drop down 1, now that they select "brown" in drop down 2 the image should change to a brown version of productvariation b).
And so on, with the image changing (and options populating) each time according to what has been selected.
Can I do this with JS and does anyone know of a script similar that I can edit, or what functions of JS I need to look into to accomplish this?
Here I made you this : http://jsfiddle.net/moeishaa/H9fF2/
It is working with jQuery. Play with it and let me know if this helped :-)
I know it looks very static but you can render the drop-down on page load and populate the options object as well. I am sure you can find plug in and add-ons. This is a very short amount of code and can be customized.
I think the best resource for example code would be looking at some JavaScript or JQuery examples on creating expandable menus (more specifically ones that mimic folder structures). They usually operate by decorating an unordered list.
You could create a static unordered list and have the image change based on what item you are hovering over. Alternatively, you could use some AJAX to dynamically populate additional parts of the list as you hover over different levels. Both of those would most likely be easily accomplished with JQuery. Here's a page with some menu examples that might give you some ideas:
JQuery Navigation Menus
Instead of having the typical disks with labels to the right, I want the options to be presented as clickable buttons. The selected option should appear to be pushed or pressed in.
I want to do this in HTML, but an example of this are the top left buttons in the program Audacity where you select the cursor/tool mode.
What's the best way to do this?

There are a number of JavaScript plugins for doing this:
Prototype demo
Just replace the images they're using with your images and you should be good to go.
Probably the best way is to create a real radio button, and then control the rendering of an element based upon the status on the radio button with javascript. If the radio button is selected, render background-a, else background-b (or use a sprite). Control the status of the radio button via the click event of your custom element.
Using this jQuery UI plugin, you can customize radio buttons and/or checkboxes to look however you want.
IN my case i want to implement multi select auto complete combobox using html,javascript.
Is there any body who knows how to implement it.
Which will be similar to text field shown in stackoverflow while adding multipal tags to any question.
If you are talking about multiple drop down boxes that are linked, so that the selection in the first drop down menu determines the possibilities in the next, then the ASP.NET Toolkit has a nice cascading drop down sample. This will only, of course, come in handy if you are programming in ASP.NET. I would not recommend trying to reverse engineer the solution.
What do you mean by auto populate?
If you want to populate the drop down box dynamically you can just use a normal HTML Select tag and use Ajax to fetch the list of values to be shown in the drop down
