Can't select a combo box?

I'm fairly new to Flash and am having a little problem.
Basically I have a the top of a clipboard visible at the
bottom of the screen. When it is rolled over the clipboard rises up
from the bottom until it is completely visible on the stage. I did
this by creating a movieclip containing the picture of a clipboard
and tweening it to come up, and then reversing it to go back down.
I placed stop actions at the beginning of the movieclip, the fully
visible position, and a gotoAndStop command at the end of the
movieclip to return it to the start. I placed the movieclip on the
stage, and used onRollOver and onRollout events to trigger the
tweens.
To ensure that the bottom of the clipboard isn't visible when
the clipboard is off screen, I added a mask over the stage area so
that only the portion of the clipboard on the stage will ever be
visible.
Here comes the question: Now I need for the clipboard to
display a few questions with combo boxes that the user can select
and choose an answer from when the clipboard is in it's fully
visible position. I can get the questions onto the clipboard by
placing them in their own layer within the movieclip. However, I
can't make the combo boxes selectable. Is this a focus problem? Do
I just have the questions layer in the wrong place? Does any of
this even make sense? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How can I make the combo box turn to the value of black.

When the show button is pressed (and not before), a filled black square should be
displayed in the display area. The combo box (or drop down list) that enables the user to choose the colour of
the displayed shape and the altering should take effect immediately.When the show button is pressed,
the image should immediately revert to the black square, the combo box should show the value that
correspond to the black.
Now ,the problem is: after I pressed show button, the image is reverted to the black square,but I don't know
how can I make the combo box turn to the value of black.
Any help or hint?Thanks a lot!

Hello,
does setSelectedIndex(int anIndex)
do what you need?
See Java Doc for JComboBox.

How can I make the combo box extend fully (so there is no scroll bar) like in IE?

When I select a combo box in IE the box opens "all the way" and there is no vertical scroll bar. This way I can see all of the options and now have to scroll up and down.
Is there a way to set Firefox to do the same?

I have repeated the test with nightly, but this time created the new profile on a local filesystem (ext4 FWIW) rather than an NFS-mounted one. As before the timestamp on .parentlock is not updated when firefox exits, so almost certainly a bug. If there is a problem with permissions/ownership, that problem is created by firefox, so still a bug :-) (given that the profile is a brand new one).
I'll report this on bugzilla as soon as I can.

Calling a bean method on select of Combo box item

Hi
On select of Combo box item in a form, text fields in the same form should be populated
dynamically.Is it possible to call a bean method which does this,by calling onSelect() method
of combo box ?
Thanks in advance,
Sridevi

Uff, sorry!
I ment that you write some code for the "onSelect" event which sends a request to the server with the selected value: onSelect="self.location.href='<%= request.getRequestURI()%>?selectedVal= ' + this.selectedIndex;"

How to populate a list box linked to selection in combo box?

Hi All,
I am a beginner in Xcelsius. I am having problem on how to populate a list box based on the selection on my combo box.
I have a combo box and a list box. The combo box value consist of Countries. Values are:
Singapore
Indonesia
Thailand
When I select, for i.e. Indonesia, I want to populate the list box with all the Postal Code of Indonesia. When I select Thailand, i want to do the same.
Can anyone shed some lights on how to achieve this?
My spreadsheet data is as follow
Country         Postal Code
Singapore     680123
Singapore     680124
Singapore     680125
Indonesia     155123
Indonesia     155124
Indonesia     155125
Indonesia     155126
Thailand       333123
Many Thanks,
Harianto

Hi,
I am detailing the complete steps below:
In the combobox select the entire range of Country while seeing the records from the Combobox, Xcelsius will automatically show the unique values in the selection.
After that in the "Data Insertion" section for Combobox select the "Insertion Type" as "Filtered Rows" (please click on the question mark beside this option and it will show how the selection works).
In the source select the postal code, in the destination select the range which will be used as a data source for the list box.
This will resolve the concern. Please remember to select the question mark beside the "Insertion Type" option, it explains the working in specific details.
Best of luck.

Gourav

How can i make 2 combo boxes as the same data source and group by each combo box items separately?

I have 2 combo boxes If I have data table like below
TableA
ID NAME
1 A
2 B
3 C
4 A
I make "TableA" as data source of "combobbox1" and "combobox2" like
combobox1.datasource = TableA
combobox1.displaymember = "ID"
combobox2.datasource = TableA
combobox2.displaymember = "Name"
I want when combobox2 select index at "A" , Combobox1 show only the items at ID = 1 And ID = 4
Thanks

This is not actually a question to be posted in SQL Server. Here is a link for ASP.NET forum.
http://forums.asp.net/
It looks like there is a filter that can be applied in .NET dataset and populate the results in your combobox1. You may get better help from .NET forums for this question.

Testing for no selection of combo box - mandatory combo

What si the best way to see if a combo box has not been selected when it does not have a default value?
if (ocombo.Selected.Value="")

Hi,
some solutions
in c#
if (((SAPbouiCOM.ComboBox)(oForm.Items.Item("cmbUID").Specific)).Selected != null) {
in vb6
if (NOT(oForm.Items.Item("cmbUID").Specific.Selected is nothing)) then
you can also try
if( oCombobox.Selected is null)

Various Selections in Combo Box trigger required field

Can anyone assist me in creating a multiple if/else statement? I have a combo box which lists all departments within my organization. I am needing assistance in creating an if/else statement that basically says if the department name is equal to say Finance, Accounting, Purchasing, etc. that a signature field is hidden because it is not required. However, if the department name were Information Services, Library, etc. the signature field would be required.
I can get this to work if I use just one value (i.e. Finance), but when I add other values (and I've tried different methods) nothing happens.
Thank you for any assistance you may provide.

Check your JavaScript debugger console for errors.
var s1 = this.getField("RBDeptHdYes").valueAsString;
var s2 = this.getField("State").valueAsString;
var s3 = this.getField(CMSignature); // field name must be in quotes
if ( s1 == "Yes")
s3.required=true;
if (s2 != "Texas"); // no ";" here
s3.required=true;
if (s1== "Yes" && s2 == "Texas")
s3.required=true;
else
s3.hidden=false;
I might be easier to crate a control variable that can be set to true or false by each test and then test the control variable at the end.
var bRequired = false; // assume not required
this.getField("CMSignature").hidden = true; // hide field
var s1 = this.getField("RBDeptHdYes").value;
var s2 = this.getField("State").value;
if ( s1 == "Yes") bRequired = true; // required
if (s2 != "Texas") bRequired = true;
if (s1== "Yes" & s2 == "Texas") bRequired = true;
if (bRequired) this.getField("CMSignature").hidden = false; // signature is required
Your script has to be placed in the "mouse up" for the radio buttons and the "blur" action for the state combo box so that when any one of these fields is changed, the script will run. This means that whenever your requirements change, each location will have to be updated unless you use a document level function which is called by each field as needed and then only the function's code would need to be changed.

Multiple selection in combo box

Hi,
How to save the selected values (with multiple selection) in to the database from combo box. I made it as multiple selection box by selecting value true for attribute Multiple, but only one value is saving in to database. How to handle it.
Regds,
Sudhakar

I 'll explain the requirement:
I have three tables, for example employee, department and empDept table which contains empId and DeptId. In my jsp, while inserting employee i need to give all existing departments in combo with multiselect option. When user press submit, i need to insert one record in employee, and records in empDept with new empId and all selected Department ids. empId is dbsequence generation.
(I did this through LOV mode of list binding editor. Even i select multiple values in JSP, its inserting only first selected record in to empDept table.)
