| [help Request] "PHP Code" To Make Contents Of One Listbox Based Another by RuuDie(m): 6:04am On Oct 31, 2012 |
Please can someone help to pace me through this!? I have actually been trying to do this for some time now and I have seen various examples online but I just cannot grasp or make it work! Specifically, I am looking to make the listbox items "dynamic" - as in, the contents of one listbox will be based on what is clicked inside another. For example, if you click on "Science" in one box, the other will only contain science related items like "biology", "chemistry", "physics". . .etc Ideally I would love it as a piece of javascript code that can be embedded into my PHP - but other ideas or methods of implementing are also welcome. Any form of advise or assistance you can offer is very much appreciated! Thanks! |

Pardon me. . .I forgot to add that the values in the second listbox will be pulled off a mySQL table! |

you need good knowledge of jquery to populate the second list box listen for the select event of the first listbox then do a $.get() and on return success, populate the second listbox. note that you have to design your database to make this work as expected table1 id, name table2 id, table1_id, name table3 id, table2_id, name etc. for unlimited number of subs |

RuuDie: Please can someone help to pace me through this!?you can do it the way tabs are implemented... By pre-loading the contents of the second box... Then hiding and showing them as supposed. You can use the "rel" attribute to point each link on the first box to each page in the second box. You will probably have a class called "active" that you should attach to the <div> you want shown using javascript... |
