php javascript

[Danny620]

I Have a javascript function that builds a option list on the fly i.e like

 

<select style="padding-top:6px; padding-left:5px" id="model2" name="Model">
<option value="500">500</option>
<option value="500C">500C</option>
<option value="Grande Punto">Grande Punto</option>
<option value="Punto Evo">Punto Evo</option>
<option value="Other">Other</option></select>

 

echo '<script type="application/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
	$("#make2 option[value=\''.$manufacturer.'\']").attr(\'selected\', \'selected\');
this should set Punto evo as seleted but its not doing	$("#model2 option[value=\'Punto Evo\']").attr(\'selected\', \'selected\');
	var makeDropdown3 = document.getElementById(\'make2\');
        setModel2(makeDropdown3.selectedIndex);
});
</script>';

 

this should set Punto evo as seleted but its not doing

 

heres the function that creates the selete option on the fly

 

function setModel2(index) {
        var modelDropdown = document.getElementById('model2');
        modelDropdown.options.length = null;
        for(var i = 0; i < model[index].length; i++) {
            modelDropdown.options[i] = new Option(model[index][i],model[index][i]);
        }
    }

    window.onload = function() {
        var makeDropdown = document.getElementById('make');
        makeDropdown.onchange = function() {
            setModel(this.selectedIndex);
        }


	var makeDropdown2 = document.getElementById('make2');
        makeDropdown2.onchange = function() {
            setModel2(this.selectedIndex);
        }

    }

Changing the selected value in the option after the menu is created won't do anything. You need to change the select menu selectedIndex to the option index (e.g. loop through the options and compare values, when you have a match set the selectedIndex to i)
