[SOLVED] PHP/ASP help I Think.

[cry of war]

I am running a form login/regestration area it is pretty large and I wanted to keep it more confined an to the point one of my examples is

<FORM action="http://somesite.com/prog/someprog" method="post1">

<SELECT name="ALCHEMY1">

      <option label=" selectednone" 1" value="none1">None</OPTION>

      <optgroup label="PortMaster 31">

 

<optgroup label="A">

<option label="Aconite 1" value="Aconite1">Aconite</OPTION>

<option label="AdamantiumOre 1" value="AdamantiumOre1">Adamantium Ore </OPTION>

<option label="AdderBrother 1" value="AdderBrother1">Adder Brother</OPTION>

<option label="AlitHide 1" value="AlitHide1">Alit Hide  </OPTION>

</optgroup>

</select>

 

 

// the list is much longer thats only a very small fraction of it.  what i was wondering was if i could make it when a person selected one of these items text would come up describing this item so the person wouldnt have to read through a larger text file. just F.Y.I there are going to be 300+ items and there is going to be 4 sections of it

 

If you do find an answer please tell me. I am still kind of new at this stuff and I am really wanting to learn new things like this

 

Thank you,

Cow

 

PS. IF you do figure something out could you please send it to me at Nathan46540@yahoo.com

Can no one help me  ??? or atleast point me in the right direction to help me find some info on this??

[MasterACE14]

well I don't completely understand what you mean. but you should post this in the "PHP Help" part of the forum. this task should be an easy one to do in PHP.

 

ps. my names Nathan too

 

Regards ACE

[cry of war]

i tried that it got moved here ???

[MasterACE14]

oh, ok.

[MasterACE14]

you could use HTML title, Although you would have to do this for each individual item, like the following.

 

<option label="Aconite 1" title="this is where all the information would go and people only have to hold their mouse over this and this will pop up telling them about the item" value="Aconite1">Aconite</OPTION>

 

hope this helps.

 

Regards ACE

[cry of war]

that is a better idea only one prob. it doesnt want to work for me nothing pops up when i go over it

[cry of war]

i was just doing some reading up on this the title Attribute you were talking about it only works in the  <optgroup> tag

[MasterACE14]

oh ok.

[cry of war]

I need something that can go into the <option> tag or a javascript that works on select of an option and writes information.

[cry of war]

Did i stump you guys????? Any one think of anything yet i have been looking for 4 days now and cant find anything on this or do you know another way i can do make it so when the item is selected from the drop down menu it tells you information about the item? And i really dont want to use a CSS drop down menu.

[nogray]

Here is an example on how to access the selected option value. You cannot have any events on the option directly.

 

I used a javascript array for the data, but most likely you would wanna use ajax if you have a gain list.

 

good luck

 

<script language="javascript">
var txt = new Array();
txt['option 1 value'] = "option 1 description";
txt['option 2 value'] = "option 2 description";
txt['option 3 value'] = "option 3 description";
txt['option 4 value'] = "option 4 description";
txt['option 5 value'] = "option 5 description";

function show_txt(val){
	if (val != "")
		document.getElementById('description').innerHTML = txt[val];

	else
		document.getElementById('description').innerHTML = "";
}
</script>
<select onchange="show_txt(this.value);">
<option value="">Select</option>
<optgroup label="Hello">
	<option value="option 1 value">Option 1</option>
	<option value="option 2 value">Option 2</option>
	<option value="option 3 value">Option 3</option>
</optgroup>
<option value="option 4 value">Option 4</option>
<option value="option 5 value">Option 5</option>
</select>
<div id="description"></div>

[pranavbhat]

hi,

I am actually not good at web designing part, i do only scripting, but i think DHTML or HTML layers should help, or those fancy javascript windows.

 

You can also have a DIV besides the option tag which describes the option and have javascript change the description on the change event.

 

I hope i am clear!!

[mainewoods]

in your code:

<select onchange="show_txt(this.value);">

the 'value' in 'this.value' is not a standard property for SELECT controls

http://www.w3schools.com/htmldom/dom_obj_select.asp

Go figure huh, it should be, someone tell the w3c.

 

use syntax like this:

this.options[this.selectedIndex];

<select onchange="show_txt(this.options[this.selectedIndex]);">

 

[nogray]

If you notice in your code

 

txt['Bungler's1']

 

 

You can't have the single quote ' in the array index, change it

 

txt['Bunglers1']

 

There are more than one, this is just an example.

[cry of war]

yeah i noticed that last night just didnt have a chance to change it lets see if it works.
