I am creating a customize combobox and want to use the default pulldown button used on <select> element. The combobox is composed of a textbox, a pulldown button and somewhat a table element containing the list. Everything is working except for displaying dropdown button.
Note that I want to refrain from using any background image for the button. I want to use the default dropdown button.
How can I make use of the dropdown button?
Maybe you could make a <select> element, then, using positioning in your stylesheet, cover it with the text field. If you position the textfield right, you should show only the pulldown button from your <select>.

I need to add a select button to the toolbar of full calendar, how ever i don't think i can to this with full calendar, because i can just use basic buttons there. Is there a way to add a select button to full calendar toolbar ? this select button must be in the left
Currently, I have an Text Field with AutoComplete item added to my page. I have a requirement to add a dropdown arrow button to the right of that item. The user should have the ability to use the features of AutoComplete but also have the ability to click the dropdown arrow to activate the list that appears from the AutoComplete item. For example, if the AutoComplete item is null and the user clicks the dropdown arrow, the list of all possible values should appear. However, if the user actually types something into the AutoComplete field, then the list of values will display specifically to what was keyed into the AutoComplete field.
Thus far I haven't come across any information online to help figure out how to achieve this task. Can anyone provide an solutions?
At the moment i have this functionality partially working... I have added the dropdown arrow as a button. When this button is clicked, it activates a dynamic action that executes JavaScript. The JavaScript I have is:
if ($(".ac_results").css("display") == "none"){
$(".ac_results").css("display","block");
}
else{
$(".ac_results").css("display","none");
}
This only works when the user has entered a value into the AutoComplete field (which initiates something in the background to create a with the class .ac_results). Then, the user removes the value keyed in and then clicks the dropdown arrows. The list appears for a split second then is gone. But if the button is clicked again the list of values appear and disappear as they should with the button clicks.
Any suggestions or solutions would be wonderful.
Thanks.
Use the Select2 Plugin instead. It has all the features you're looking for and will save you a lot of time getting all the CSS correct. Demo of it: https://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=64237:20:0:
I want to make selectbox in CKeditor but:
- When i click selectbox in ckeditor it just show dialog to config select box.
==> I want to click that selectbox it have to show dropdown values to select. And after selected and submit form that view will be do not show selectbox, just show value you selected.
When you select must be show dropdown values
After submit
In WYSIWYG ("edit") mode (when you are creating content in the editor) the form elements are editable, and not usable - because this is where you create your content. After your content is saved (or in preview mode) the created forms can actually be used (selected etc.).
In short CKEditor is a tool that you can use to create your forms for end users to fill in after your editor-created content lands on your page.
In Select2.js, by default there is a select dropdown box and a dropdown icon to make it intuitive for the user that it is a dropdown and not just an input box.
When we make the select dropdown box with multiple tags enabled, the dropdown box looks more like an input text box. basically the dropdown icon is missing.
Please refer - https://select2.github.io/examples.html
So to add the dropdown icon, i could add it in the select2.js file. But i think it is not a good idea. Any other easier or better way to get the dropdown icon for multi - select select2 js dropdown box?
As the documentation says, when you are using tags, it will become an input box. Select is only for single selection, and Textbox is for multiple selection, a.k.a. tags. :) This is by design.
The best alternate is to use placeholders, which can tell the users that it is a multiselect autosuggest:
$(element).select2({
placeholder: "Start typing..."
});
I'm using bootstrap select (http://silviomoreto.github.io/bootstrap-select/) in my project and I want to achieve this: if I have many options in my select, whenever I open the menu, I want it to be scrolled somehow that my selected option is visible. Something like the select elements on http://jsfiddle.net/
Any ideea if that is possible?
