I have a site with the same form in different spots on the page. I would like to be able to have a placeholder in a text input change when I change the select option. I have a JSFiddle with a kinda example: http://jsfiddle.net/y1jhhqLz/
All the forms look like this:
<form id="form1">
<select id="mySelect1" onClick="changePlaceHolder('#mySelect1','#myInput1')">
<option value='-1'>Form 1</option>
<option value='First'>First Choice</option>
<option value='Second'>Second Choice</option>
<option value='Third'>Third Choice</option>
</select>
<input id="myInput1" type="text" placeholder="Form 1"></input>
<input class="dontChangeME" type="text" placeholder="Don't Change This One!"></input>
</form>
And in this example, I would like to have the place holder change on the input with the id myInput, when I select the option Third.
I have tried many different ways to include the most recent attempt, which I put on the JSFiddle.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Set select onclick attribute to
onclick="changePlaceHolder(this,'#myInput1');"
and change javascript function to
function changePlaceHolder(dropdown, element) {
if (jQuery(dropdown).val() == "Third") {
jQuery(element).attr('placeholder', 'You did it correctly!');
} else {
jQuery(element).at}tr('placeholder', '');
}
}
in JSFiddle, you should set the loading behaviour to "no wrap - in head"
Done!
Add a change listener to the select, then get the value of the select and set the attribute placeholder to said value:
$('select').on('change',function(){
var place=$(this).val();
var num=$(this).attr('id').substring(8);
$('#myInput'+num).attr('placeholder',place);
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<p>How do I get it so that when I click on the option that says Third Choice (for any form), it will put in the text box (with the form and number ) a placeholder: "You did it correctly"? But it shouldn't change any other form but the one where you change the select to the Third Choice option. I tried using a onClick function.

Several things going on. First, remove the onClick events (we are not looking for when the select is clicked but rather when it is changed) and instead use jQuery's on method. Now changePlaceHolder has access to this which is the actual select box which was changed.
See below:
jQuery('select').on('change input', changePlaceHolder);
function changePlaceHolder() {
//I have to use jQuery instead of $ because it is on a wordpress site
if (jQuery(this).val() == "Third") {
jQuery(this).next().attr("placeholder","You did it correctly!");
} else {
jQuery(this).next().attr("placeholder"," ");
}
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<h2>Please pick the third option from Form 1:</h2>
<form id="form1">
<select id="mySelect1" >
<option value='-1'>Form 1</option>
<option value='First'>First Choice</option>
<option value='Second'>Second Choice</option>
<option value='Third'>Third Choice</option>
</select>
<input id="myInput1" type="text" placeholder="Form 1"/>
<input class="dontChangeME" type="text" placeholder="Don't Change This One!"/>
</form>
Other things to note: your <input> tags to not require an ending tag </input>, instead write them like this <input />. Note that the "/" ends the tag. You want to edit the input immediately following your select, in which case you can use jQuery(this).next() which will select the element immediately following the current this element.
For your specific case I would not touch source code, would define all functionality in script. Setting the onlick event inline is not a good idea, scripts should not go together with content.
I wrote this script having in mind that your select and input tags do not have to be siblings, the only condition is that both belong to same form:
/* This way you can use $ in your Wordpress */
(function ($) {
$('select').on('change', function(e) {
var thisSelect = $(this);
var thisSelectValue = thisSelect.val();
var thisInput = thisSelect.closest('form').find('input[id^=myInput]');
if (thisSelectValue == 'Third') {
thisInput.attr("placeholder", "You did it correctly!");
} else {
thisInput.attr("placeholder", "");
}
});
}(jQuery));

I updated my code. I was able to transfer a single input, but I have to transfer them all
Change id to class
use closest and next
I assume you meant copy from customer1 to customer2
I cannot make a working snippet because you have the same IDs and no names, but the code will look this this
$(function() {
$(".customer-add").on("click",function() {
const $container = $(this).closest(".customer-bar")
const $nextContainer = $container.next(".customer-bar")
const $currentElements = $(":input",$container);
const $nextElements = $(":input",$nextContainer);
$currentElements.each(function(i) {
console.log(i,$(this).attr("class"))
$nextElements.eq(i).val($(this).val())
})
})
})
I updated my code. I was able to transfer a single input, but I have to transfer them all
I have this simple bit of code. When the user chooses Others, an <input type=text> should appear.
But it only works when there is only one value selected.
Users can randomly add in the same select type, so the code can't be changed. For what I know, in javascript need to use foreach.
So my question is, how to let each of the <input type=text> appear in EACH of the select elements instead of it only appearing in the first one.
function Pack(val){
var element=document.getElementById('otherpack');
if(val=='others')
element.style.display='block';
else
element.style.display='none';
}
<select name="Type[]" onchange='Pack(this.value);' required>
<option value="Orange">Orange</option>
<option value="Apple">Apple</option>
<option value="others">Others</option>
<input type="text" name="othermethod[]" id="otherpack" style="display:none"/>
</select>
<select name="Type[]" onchange='Pack(this.value);' required>
<option value="Orange">Orange</option>
<option value="Apple">Apple</option>
<option value="others">Others</option>
<input type="text" name="othermethod[]" id="otherpack" style="display:none"/>
</select>
<select name="Type[]" onchange='Pack(this.value);' required>
<option value="Orange">Orange</option>
<option value="Apple">Apple</option>
<option value="others">Others</option>
<input type="text" name="othermethod[]" id="otherpack" style="display:none"/>
</select>
Here is my solution:
function Pack(v) {
var inputBox=v.nextSibling;
var selectedValue=v.options[v.selectedIndex].value;
if (selectedValue=="others") {
inputBox.style.display='block';
} else {
inputBox.style.display='none';
}
}
This should be the most stable solution.
I would prefer to make change events into javascript side instead of making it in HTML..
As suggested it is not good to use input inside select so make input outside of select box..
const selectBoxes = document.querySelectorAll('select');
function Pack(select) {
const selectedInput = select.nextElementSibling;
if(select.value === 'others')
selectedInput.style.display='block';
else
selectedInput.style.display='none';
}
selectBoxes.forEach(select => {
select.addEventListener('change', Pack.bind(this, select))
})
<select name="Type[]" required>
<option value="Orange">Orange</option>
<option value="Apple">Apple</option>
<option value="others">Others</option>
</select>
<input type="text" name="othermethod[]" id="otherpack" style="display:none"/>
<br>
<br>
<select name="Type[]" required>
<option value="Orange">Orange</option>
<option value="Apple">Apple</option>
<option value="others">Others</option>
</select>
<input type="text" name="othermethod[]" id="otherpack" style="display:none"/>
<br>
<br>
<select name="Type[]" required>
<option value="Orange">Orange</option>
<option value="Apple">Apple</option>
<option value="others">Others</option>
</select>
<input type="text" name="othermethod[]" id="otherpack" style="display:none"/>
id attributes should have unique values, so your selector will always select the first match.
Secondly, input elements are not allowed to be children of select elements. select elements can only have optgroup or option elements as children
It is also best practice to attach listeners via JavaScript code instead of onchange attributes. You can listen at the document level ("event delegation") to avoid repeating several listeners (one per select element).
Here is how it could work:
function Pack(e){
let select = e.target;
if (select.name !== "Type[]") return;
let element = select.nextElementSibling; // this finds the INPUT element
element.style.display = select.value === "others" ? "block" : "none";
}
document.addEventListener("change", Pack);
<select name="Type[]" required>
<option value="Orange">Orange</option>
<option value="Apple">Apple</option>
<option value="others">Others</option>
</select>
<input type="text" name="othermethod[]" style="display:none"/>
<br>
<select name="Type[]" required>
<option value="Orange">Orange</option>
<option value="Apple">Apple</option>
<option value="others">Others</option>
</select>
<input type="text" name="othermethod[]" style="display:none"/>
<br>
<select name="Type[]" required>
<option value="Orange">Orange</option>
<option value="Apple">Apple</option>
<option value="others">Others</option>
</select>
<input type="text" name="othermethod[]" style="display:none"/>
Have you tried giving them unique ids? if you wanna have the same identifier in different elements, maybe use the class attribute instead.
Hope it helps, good luck !
edit: actually, now I see you're calling them with an id that isn't unique. Give each of the text-inputs their own id and it should work
ids are meant to be unique in the code, so whenever you call your function it assumes that there is only one element with that id
I have a dropdown selector in my HTML and I need to print out an image that is linked to a selection. But I have no idea how to start that.
<input type="text" id="TextVeld" class="form-control" placeholder="get value on option select">
<br><br>
<select name="cars" id="TextShow" class="form-control">
<option value="Pizza0">Kies je pizza</option>
<option value="Pizza1">Margherita</option>
<option value="Pizza2">Carciofi</option>
<option value="Pizza3">Marinara</option>
<option value="Pizza4">Funghi</option>
<option value="Pizza5">Calzone</option>
<option value="Pizza6">Napoli</option>
<option value="Pizza7">Romana</option>
<option value="Pizza8">Quattro Formaggi</option>
</select>
<br><br>
<button type="button" name="button">Toon</button>
<button type="button" name="button" onclick="Kiezen()">Kies</button>
I did find an example that does this, but not on a button click. Even then, it doesn't work when I add it to my code.
Assuming "Print out" means "Show", try this
var folder = "https://icco.co.uk/catalog/view/theme/iccqtheme/images/"
function showIt() {
var pizza = document.getElementById("pizzas").value;
document.getElementById("pizzaImage").src= folder + (pizza? pizza+".png" : "deliveroo.png");
}
window.addEventListener("load",function() {
document.getElementById("toon").addEventListener("click",showIt); // click
document.getElementById("pizzas").addEventListener("change",showIt); // or change
});
<input type="text" id="TextVeld" class="form-control"
placeholder="get value on option select">
</br></br>
<select name="pizzas" id="pizzas" class="form-control">
<option value="">Kies je pizza</option>

Hello I have two select menus, that contain values, my intention is to multiple the values of the two select menus and show them in a TextField,
I've done this successfully carried this out by doing this :
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
function updatesum() {
document.form1.textfield3.value = (document.form1.selectt.value -0) * (document.form1.selecttt.value -0);
}
//--></script>
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="val.php">
<label><strong><br />
Chelsea vs Arsenal</strong>
<select name="selectt" onchange="updatesum()">
<option value="0">select</option>
<option value="100">100</option>
<option value="200">200</option>
</select>
</label>
<label><strong>odds</strong>
<select name="selecttt" onchange="updatesum()">
<option value="0">select</option>
<option value="100">L</option>
<option value="200">W</option>
<option value="400">D</option>
</select>
</label>
<input name="textfield3" type="text" /><br />
</form>
Now I'm trying to do a double of this select menus using the same name attribute, but it refuses to calculate.
This is what I'vve tried :
document.form1.textfield3.value = (document.form1.selectt.value -0) * (document.form1.selecttt.value -0) }
//--></script>
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="val.php">
<label><strong><br />
Chelsea vs Arsenal</strong>
<select name="selectt" onchange="updatesum()">
<option value="0">select</option>
<option value="100">100</option>
<option value="200">200</option>
</select>
</label>
<label><strong>odds</strong>
<select name="selecttt" onchange="updatesum()">
<option value="0">select</option>
<option value="100">L</option>
<option value="200">W</option>
<option value="400">D</option>
</select>
</label>
<input name="textfield3" type="text" /><br /> <label><strong><br />
Chelsea vs Arsenal</strong>
<select name="selectt" onchange="updatesum()">
<option value="0">select</option>
<option value="100">100</option>
<option value="200">200</option>
</select>
</label>
<label><strong>odds</strong>
<select name="selecttt" onchange="updatesum()">

I was hoping it would work this way, but it didn't, how can I achieve this?
I didn't understand what you are trying to say but i have write some pseudocode hope this will help you...
pseudocode
<script>
var globalVariable=1;
function updateSum(){
//get current element value
globalVariable*=document.form.select.value
textfield.value = globalVariable;
}
</script>
I'm wondering how I can chain an input box after chaining a selection in my form.
I'm using http://www.appelsiini.net/projects/chained to chain my selects and it works. However, I need to adjust this to also allow for the chaining of an input. In the below example it would be someone would choose an option such has an item has Strength on it then the select menu of value options then input the value. I'm trying to also incorporate into this where after those 3 options of item, controller, value are inputed the user has the option to filter more so another box appear with the same options of strength, agility, etc. http://jsfiddle.net/isherwood/XMx4Q/ is an example of work I used to incorporate this into my own work.
<form id="myform" name="myform" method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>">
<div>
<label for="searchterm">Name:</label>
<input type="text" name="searchterm">
</div>
<div>
<div class="chainedSelectFilter">
<select name="specificFilter" class="attribute">
<option value="" selected>Select a Filter</option>
<option value="strength">Has Strength</option>
<option value="agility">Has Agility</option>
<option value="spirit">Has Spirit</option>
<option value="stamina">Has Stamina</option>
</select>
<select name="specificFilter" class="valueController">
<option value=">" selected>></option>
<option value=">=">>=</option>
<option value="=">=</option>
<option value="<="><=</option>
<option value="<"><</option>
</select>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<label for="submit"></label>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Filter">
</div>
Code reference below shows how to accomplish this. Here is jsFiddle that shows it's working.
