Drop list selected="selected"

On an edit page form fields are always filled with data from
the database for the chosen record. How can the following code be
modified so that the selected value of the drop list defaults to
the data from the database for the chosen record as it pertains to
the data for the drop list?
<select name="companyName" id="companyName">
<option>Please select a Company</option>
<option spry:repeat="dsVendors"
value="{dsVendors::company_name}">{dsVendors::company_name}</option>
</select>

Hi Troy,
Does anyone know how to implement a droplist that does not require
an item to be selected? I would like to be able to have a drop list for
a query window where the user can optionally select something from
the list or leave it "blank". In other words, I don't always want an item
selected on a droplist.We have done this by simply adding a (none) or (any) item at the top of the
list of items in the droplist. I think you can also put a blank element in?
Hope that helps,
Tim

  • Auto-populating Infopath fields from a Sharepoint list after selecting a drop down

    I currently have two lists one titled 'Book of Work' which holds details around on-going projects and the other titled 'Book of Work Amendments' which are requests submitted by users to change project details (through an infopath form).
    There is a column in the BoW Amendments list entitled 'Select Project' which has a lookup to 'Project Name' in the BoW list. The aim is that when a user chooses an option from the 'Select Project' drop-down, other fields in the form such as 'Project Manager',
    'Project Description' will be automatically populated with data from that row in the BoW table.
    I have connected both Sharepoint Lists as data connections with BoW Amendments being the primary and BoW the secondary. If we take the Project Manager field as an example the method I have attempted is as follows:
    . Create a rule with condition Select Project is not blank
    . Action - Set a field's value: Field: Project Manager (BoW Amendments - Primary) Value:
    Project Manager (BoW - Secondary) Add Filter: Project_Name (BoW - Secondary) =
    Select Project (BoW - Primary)
    Currently this is not populating the field when the project is selected in the drop down, any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Josh,
    This should be straight forward. You do not need BOW Amend data connection. You are creating requests in this list so this will be your Main Data Connection.
    When creating the rule on the drop down, select Action:
    Condition: anytime the value changes, Set a field's value - Project Manager (Main); Value - Project Manager(BOW) where Project[BOW] = Project [Main]
    Hope it helps.

  • How to lengthen the drop list view in form page selection?

    Hi All,
    Looking at 11.1.2.1 Planning, it's annoying that I can only see 10 members at a time when scrolling through the page drop list in forms:
    http://www.stanford.edu/~mikeling/drop_list_screenshot.jpg
    In 9.3, one is able to see a much longer list.
    Is there a way to globally customize the length of viewable members in the dropdown, so that I see 20 or 30 members at a time, for example?

    did you change it with the Application owner login(log in id using which the application created) and save it after making the change.
    it is working absolutely the way you are expecting in my system. i login with Admin id and made the changes and saved it and my serch box incresed with number of members.

  • Is there any object in labview that contains a list of data for the user to select (selection one at a time) or add a new data?

    Is there any object in labview that contains a list of data for the user to select (selection one at a time) or add a new data?

    List and table controls -> listbox..is that what you are thinking of?
    The listbox presents the user with a list of options, and you can set it to only accept one selection at a time...Adding new data to the list can not be done directly by the user but if you make e.g. a text control and a button you can programatically insert new objects described in the text box when the button is pressed...(see example).
    If you need more than one column you have the multicolumn listbox. If you want the users to write new entries directly yu can use a table and read selected cells using it's selection start property to read what cell has been selected.

  • How do I make a drop down menu selection show up in another web page?

    What I am trying to accomplish is this.  I have a page with various drop down menu selections that I want to transfer the selection to a secured web page. What happens now is once the selection is made it goes to the secure page but then the user has to again select the choice again.  Is there way to keep the selection chosen in the linked page?

    You can set the "selected" value in the second page based on the input from the first page.
    Ignor the language referance used below for the example and simple use the concept with your desired language.
    Second Page form:
    <form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">
      <select name="testing" id="testing">
        <option value="Value 1" <% if ( Passed values == Value 1 ) { %>selected="selected"<% } %>>Lable 1</option>
        <option value="Value 2" <% if ( Passed values == Value 2 ) { %>selected="selected"<% } %>>Lable 2</option>
      </select>

  • Getting list of selected Rows of a Table

    Hi Experts,
    Im having a table with 500 elements, among them i select few of them to process, for exmpl consider my table has 500 rows , where each row represents a Invoice Payment, among them only few i select and process those or reject those.
    Now my problem is here when i select 1 Inv payment  or 100 Inv Payments or 50 Inv Payments , i have to iterate throught the table node using for() loop to take the selected ones for processing, i.e i have to iterate 500 times, instead is there any single function that can give me only the list of selected elements, so iteration of 500 elements is avoided. So that performance is increased.
    Regards
    Govardan Raj S

    What you can do is use the onSelect event (fired when you click and select a row) to copy the row into another context node which is the same as your table context node. When you have selected all the records you want to process, then use the table which you copied the selected records to instead of the one which has 500 entries. Make sense?

  • How to get list of selected files from swf to javascript ?

    Hi everybody,
    i want to make an upload script with swf and javascript. I want to do selecting files via swf then uploading files to server via javascript. I have searched SWFupload plugins but they are not working as i need. I am new here and i do some search, i see it is possible to save list of selected files in FileReferenceList array, but i dont know if is it possible to pass this array into javascript and then make upload progress via javascript ?

    Hi,
    You will not be able to get the local file paths from FileReference due to flash security restrictions.
    Hence I think it is not possible to pass the file reference data to javascript and load the same.

    Hi!
    You can set list "initial value" using When-Create-Record trigger.
    I.g.
    :<Block_name>.<list_item_name> := Get_List_Element_Value('<Block_name>.<list_item_name>', 1);
