We have all seen those web pages which feature a multiple <select> box on
the left, and an empty one on the right, and the user selects one or several
options from the left box, clicks a button, and those selections appear in
the right box.
Although I have seen these, I have never tried coding them before, until
now. I imagine that there is some client-side code involved, but because my
code will use ASP to do some stuff with the selections, I figured it was OK
to ask it here. Can someone direct me to some sample code for this?
I have searched on some ASP code sites, but haven't found anything, probably
because I don't know a short description for this kind of thing. 3 1735
well, you have two options, only one of which applies here in a Server Side
group.
That would be to have the selection of the first one cause a .submit() to
happen where you can read the value and limit the second selection box
results.

I'd suggest using JavaScript to submit the page (assuming the page is
being posted back to itself anyway) and then if the page is a post, show
the extra info in the second listbox. You can see an example of this on
the sample database on the Web on my site - www.bullschmidt.com/login.asp and then go to the Invoices dialog and
choose a rep in the listbox and notice that the page is posted to
itself, the customers listbox then gets the focus, and the customers
listbox only contains the customers for that rep.
And here's a function I've used to submit the page for this purpose:
function RefreshPg(pstrF ldName) {
// Purpose: Refresh pg. to update other fld(s) based on selection.
// Remarks: Used by combo's onchange.
// Assumes existence of document.frmMai n.FocusedFldNam e hidden fld.
// Set focused fld for when come back.
document.frmMai n.FocusedFldNam e.value = pstrFldName;
// Msg.
alert("Refreshi ng page to update other field(s) based on your
selection.");
// Submit pg to itself to refresh other combo based on this combo.
document.frmMai n.submit();
}

Hi:
I have several text elements in a form.
Some of they are filled by the user, and then some are automatically filled
based on the user input.
Therefore I do not want the user to be able to write on the autofilled text
elements.
I have come to the idea of give those elements the event
onFocus=functiontoMovetoNextElement()
Then my question is how can I do that using the elements array?

I choose 'Entry 4' and click then on the button 'Set' to set the index to

fine; 'Entry 3' shows up.
Is this a bug within Mozilla Firefox or do I have any possibility to change
this wrong behavior?

Greetings,
I'm slowly building up code to do the following:-
Display TWO selection option boxes (cascading).
If the FIRST selection option box changes then reload the jsp using onchange event (not changing the option box value on relaod i.e. not re-running the SQL query).
ONLY on initial entry should the form FIRST selection option box should be populated using JDBC SQL.

Hello,
How do I move the keyboard cursor position in a Tix.HList?
I am using an HList with the right mouse button bound to pop up a
menu. If the right click is done on an unselected item, I change the
selection to that item. This works, however the keyboard cursor
position remains at the last item selected with arrow keys or left
click. How can I move this as well as the selection?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
