My question is related to Angular and Typescript. My problem is quite tricky. I've created a dropdown menu with 3 items. But I'm not creating it using select tag of HTML. I'm using my company's toolkit. Which is just a wrapper around primeng components with our font and our color scheme. They call it PLK toolkit. Their code have a bug. It is not clearing the previously selected item. Here is their sample dropdown code (i feel it is ok to share the code because it is few lines of plain html only and that too written by me):
Note: In below code, plk-dropdown is like select tag, while plk-option is like option tag. There's nothing special about it.
<plk-dropdown [(ngModel)]="fruit" name="fruit">
<plk-option [value]="'apple'">Apple</plk-option>
<plk-option [value]="'pear'">Pear</plk-option>
<plk-option [value]="'melon'">Melon</plk-option>
</plk-dropdown>
So, when I click it first time it is good.But after first click it keeps on selecting the other options along with previous. I looked into their code:
dropdown.js
DropDownComponent.prototype.writeValue = function (value) {
if (this.options) {
this.selectOptionByValue(value);
}
};
and I fixed this bug by adding 1 line of code:
DropDownComponent.prototype.writeValue = function (value) {
if (this.options) {
this.clearSelectedOptions(); // THIS I ADDED
this.selectOptionByValue(value);
}
};
Now the compoenent is working but the problem is that I can't make changes to their js file. Firstly, I'm not supposed to do so. Secondly, if in future we update our repositories, that bug will come back.
Is there any way I can fix this with my typescript code. I cant implement jquery in between. I tried this:
How to clear all selected items in a SELECT input using jQuery?
Please help me. I'm blocked because of this. I really need help.
I use a null option so when the dropdown has no values unselected option is selected , I thing it 's related to primeng the set the first option as selected even the value don't match with ngModel property I have create a demo to show this but so far that how we solve abd this will give to the use an option to undo the selection in case this was not required.
<plk-dropdown [(ngModel)]="fruit" name="fruit">
<plk-option [value]="null">Unselected</plk-option>
<plk-option [value]="'apple'">Apple</plk-option>
<plk-option [value]="'pear'">Pear</plk-option>
<plk-option [value]="'melon'">Melon</plk-option>
</plk-dropdown>

I have a select field with the id being node_service_area_city. I wish to clear this dropdown using jquery. For the same I have the following code:
$("#node_service_area_city").empty();
When this line is commented I can chose any of the options in the dropdown. When the code is run with this line included then the options in the dropdown are STILL THERE but I cannot chose any of them. Nothing happens if I click on any of the options.
As such I feel that the dropdown menu is empty but somehow the dropdown items are still showing so I might have to refresh the page. Someone please guide me as to why this is happening and what can I do about it.
can you try this :
$('button').click(function () {
$("#node_service_area_city > option:first-child").prop("selected","true")
});
This question already has an answer here:
Reset values from jQuery Mobile
(1 answer)
Closed 8 years ago.
I've been trying all day to figure this out, and it seems simple enough, but how can I clear (not remove) all the selections from a group of select option drop downs at once? I want them set back to their default state when the div was first loaded. I can't use .reset because there will be other information in the form that I need to gather, but I need to allow users to change their minds without penalty (having to fill the form out all over again).
This SO question shows you how to remove the options which isn't what I need.
This SO question seemed to give the answer, but I haven't been able to get it to work.
And this jQuery bug entry seems to imply that it can be done with .empty(), but that doesn't work either.
This SO question lists a bunch of different ways to do exactly what I want, and I've tried all of them (see code below), none worked. I'm obviously missing something.
Here's a JSfiddle with the problem.
How to view the problem in the fiddle:
At Repair Status, click on Repaired; two new inputs are shown, a set of radio buttons and then select-option drop downs for each. Under Category, choose Part Quality, then choose any item from the drop down. That choice should now show up in the drop down. Now click on any one of the other Categories, and then back to Part Quality. The same choice you just made will still be shown instead of the default of "Select Part Quality Reason", which is what I want.
My attempts have focused largely on the Part Quality radio button for proof of concept, but the production code needs to clear all of the entries from all of the option-selects in the form except the Reporting Department drop down. Preferably I can use a generic selection with a $(this) construct, but that's not required. Something like this:
$("select option:selected").each(function () {
$(this).val(''); //doesn't work
});
Requirements:
When the user chooses a different radio button (Category), all of the option select drop downs will be reset to their default states. That way when the user makes their final choice & hits Submit, there are no extraneous entries. When they change their choice of Category, the underlying code must preserve the Reporting Department drop down choice.
I can then gather all the bits and pieces of their choices to be placed into a JSON string for an AJAX call to my code-behind and insert the data into a MySQL database.
I don't care if the answer uses jQuery or just plain JavaScript, I can use either happily.
Here's a bunch of attempts that haven't solved it yet:
$("#formEvent_repair input[type='radio']").on('change', function () {
//$("#select_part_quality_repair option:selected").attr("selected", false);
//$("#select_part_quality_repair").find('[selected]').removeAttr("selected");
//$('#select_part_quality_repair').attr('selectedIndex', '-1');
//$('#select_part_quality_repair').val(null);
$("#select_part_quality_repair").find('option:first').attr('selected','selected');
//$("select option:selected").val([]);
//$("select option:selected").html('');
//$("select_part_quality_repair").html('');
$("select_part_quality_repair").append().html('');
$("select option:selected").each(function () {
console.log("Emptying select options");
$("#select_part_quality_repair").find('option:first').attr('selected','selected');
//#select_part_quality_repair-button > span
//$("#select_part_quality_repair").prop('selectedIndex', -1);
//$("#select_part_quality_repair").find('option').attr("selected", false);
//$("#select_part_quality_repair option").attr("selected", false);
$("#select_part_quality_repair option:selected").attr("selected", false);
console.log(this);
$(this).val([]);
});
Because you are using jquery mobile you need to issue a refresh command to the elemnt that you change.
$('#select_part_quality_repair').val('').selectmenu('refresh');
This will deselect any option and then refresh the layout to show the change..
For radio buttons you set in code use
$(<radio-button-selector>).checkboxradio("refresh");
You clear a dropdown selection like this:
$("#select_part_quality_repair").val("");
That will clear the selection without removing the members.
Also, this line in your code is improperly formed:
$("select_part_quality_repair").append().html('');
You forgot to put the "#" before the element ID, as is required by JQuery. That line won't help you anyway, so you should not even bother with it.

Unchecked all radio button
$(".clear").click(function(){
$('input:radio').each(function () {
$(this).removeAttr("checked");
});
});
EDIT 2 :
Unselected all options
$(".clear").click(function(){
$('select').each(function () {
$(this).removeAttr("selected");
});
});
I've attached a vertical screen shot of some crazy stuff going on. Am I right to expect j$('[id$=Model_List]').children().remove(); to remove all items in a select list? For some reason the list is still holding on to the old selected value while clearing out the rest of the items.
I'm using the <Apex:selectlist in the html block, just not in the jQuery.
VG930M should be V243H as seen in hte console log...
Hopefully the screenshot gives you a better idea of what I'm talking about...
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
You need to remove all values from the drop down and reset the selected value.
j$("select[id$=Model_List] > option").remove();
j$("select[id$=Model_List]").val('');
You also need to clear the selected value:
$('[id$=Model_List]').val('');
I think, that salesforce selectList can not be filled out or cleared with jQuery (sure, you can do it but controller will not take the value).
Try to make it like in this example, with a hidden field:
Command button in Visualforce can't read selected item from dynamic drop down list
I've made table with celleditor similar to this:
http://demo.qooxdoo.org/current/demobrowser/#table~Table_Cell_Editor.html
-row 'Status' with selectbox (I need to remember in this selectbox for items - name and ID).
But problem is like in this example - when I select an option and deactivate this editor (edit other row, or click somewhere else), and then return to edit it again, then it is selected other option than it was before - always first element on list.
I think it's a bug in qooxdoo (version 1.4.1), but do you have any solution for this (too keep correct element selected when I edit this cell again?
I believe the standard solution to this problem is to keep a 'presentation model' of the user interface state. When the widget is shown again, you reconfigure it with the selection box showing the last used item or whatever you consider appropriate.
I'm working with jQuery and a plugin called jQuery.SelectBox
I have 3 selectboxes, selecting an option in the first selectbox will change the options in the second one.
My problem comes when I try to insert values in the second selectbox via append function in jQuery. Everything works fine but the new options are not clickable.
You can see the problem right here: http://incubadora.gelattina.com/impac/galeria.html (scroll down and to the right), there are the three selectboxes.
From what I understand, you put in a normal select, and this does a dynamic creation of a stylized 'select box' via jQuery.
The problem, I would guess, is that, since you're adding items after the select box's initialization, the new items don't have any sort of action listeners on them.
I can't seem to find any documentation on this SelectBox plugin, but you need to find a way to Bind the click and hover actions provided by SelectBox onto you're newly added items.
You can try calling the .selectbox(); function on the select elements after you've added the new options to see if that works.
Hey I wrote a select box plugin called Selectzor, just for this reason.
It should accomplish everything you need.
