How To Make an Array from Multiple Choices of a Drop-Down Menu?

I have a drop-down menu (or a scrollable list). Visitors can make multiple selection from the list. How do I put those selected items into an array?

Populate a Floating Field from Multiple Choices in a Drop Down List

Hi, folks, it's been a while which means things have been going smoothly. But what I'm trying to do at the moment has me stumped.
I have a form that was originally made with a long section of checkboxes that our agents would check if the answers applied to the client's case. This meant that the client had a whole bunch of information that didn't apply to them on the form so I thought would be clearer for the client if the agent would select only those items that pertained to them in a List Box. I used a List Box for multiple choices because several choices could apply to their case. And I wanted those selections to relayout to a floating text field in a paragraph but for the life of me, I can't seem to make that happen. I tried switching to a Drop Down Field and that allows only one selection to relayout.
The paragrah reads "To proceed, we need the following information or the documents identified below:" and then the 15 items would be listed with the checkboxes.
Any suggestions as to how I should do this?

What if you leave them as checkboxes and just put a pre-print event in each of the 15 items to make them visible or hidden based on their value?

How Can I Put Multiple Columns in a Drop-Down Menu?

We are trying to put multiple columns in a drop-down menu, similar to what is on these web sites...
http://www.cabelas.com/
http://www.target.com/ (This site has the multiple columns on the Women, Home, Kitching & Dining, Toys, Electronics, and See More categories).
If anyone has any suggestions for coding, please reply.
Thank you.

As an <li> tag is not a block level element like a <p> or <div> tag you can store a <div> container within the <li> tag and create an element in that menu item and us the following tutorial to create multiple columns depending on the ordering:
http://www.alistapart.com/articles/multicolumnlists
Depending on your target browser you could also use the CSS3 column-count to define the amount of columns. But with just a quick glance at this I would say it only works in the the later versions of Firefox, Chrome, Safari and IE9+.

How do I add more than 10 options to the drop down menu?

Presently, I'm only able to give ten options but many of my items have 20-30 options.How do I add more than ten options to the drop down menu?

It depends on the type of option. If each option has a separate price, then I don't know of a way to add more than 10 options since those options with the prices are encoded into the button id. (Well, you could encode the information yourself with PayPal's API, but that is way more involved than I've been willing to tackle.) If you have more than 10 options such as color, scent, etc that don't affect the price, then you can edit the code you have added to your website to add additional items in the list. For example, suppose you had options "red" and "green", the relevant part of the code would look something like this: <select name="os0">
<option value="red">red </option>
<option value="green">green </option></select> If you want to add the option "blue", you would insert the line : <option value="blue">blue </option> before the closing </select> tag. More than 10 options won't be saved in the PayPal button creator, but it will work just fine in your website since this type of option isn't encoded in the id.

I am trying to import bookmarks from google account. Your drop down menu does not have the "import" option. How can I do this?

Your instructions for importing bookmarks/favorites are to click the top left Firefox button and select "import" to start the process. I don't have that option, there is not "import" in the drop down menu. How can I import bookmarks into Firefox?

You will still find it in the File menu in the Firefox 5 version that you are using.<br />
If Firefox 7 is has been moved to the Bookmarks Manager.
Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden.
If you managed the bookmarks via the Google toolbar on the Google server then see:

How do I delete other email addresses from showing up in the drop down menu (on ie. Facebook) when I'm logging in?

There are other people who have logged into facebook from my laptop so their emails still appear on the drop down menu when I type the first letter of the email. I would like to clear all the emails that appear. Please advise.
Thank you.

Determine number in a field based on word-choice in a drop-down menu

I'm trying to insert a number in a field based on a word I've chosen in a drop-down menu.
Example:
I have a drop-down menu named "Fruits". In that menu is "Orange", "Apple" and "Banana".
I have a different field called "Price". If the user selects "Orange" in the "Fruits" drop-down, the value of "Price" is 10. If the user selects "Apple" the value of "Price" is 15. If the user selects "Banana" the value of "Price" is 20.
Been working with this for awhile, and feel like Im very close, but can't get it to work. If someone could help me I'd be grateful.
Thanks,
T.

Thanks to both of you. I realize this is more complex than I thought, and that I didn't state my challenge correctly. Let me try again:
I have a number of textual items in a dropdown, let's say "Apples", "Bananas" and "Cherries".
I have an array of form fields, with different properites expressed as a numeric value, say: "Size", "Weight", and "Cost".
Each of the items in the dropdown has a value for each of the fields.
So when I select an item from the drop-down I want to populate the entire array from the values associated with the items in the drop down. Different items will fill the array of values (I actually have 28 properties in the array and about 7 items in the drop-down). The items will always have a value for all the properties in the array, but I want the user to be able to override all entries. So enter custom text in the drop-down, which would provide blank fields in the array, which could also be overwritten by the user.
Hope that makes sense, and I apologize for my earlier attempt at describing this. It's hard enough to do in plain English, there's no way I can make this happen in Javascript, LOL!
Thanks in advance for your patience and help.
T.

It will still need some tweeking when you add the other filters.
For some reason, IE did not show the data, haven't worked out why yet, but FF no problem.

Is there a way to import a list of choices for a drop down menu?

I am on a really tight deadline. I need to enter 191 locations into a drop down menu in a survey. Can anyone help? THANK YOU!!

Hi,
Unfortunately, it is not possible to import a list of choices; it has to be entered manually.

How to make a keyboard navigating multiple choice list in Flash and control it through actionscript?

i am making an rpg style game in actionscript 3.0 and i want to make a multiple choice list. I know how to make the list with buttons and how to control it. My question is, how do you make a list that can be navigated using the keyborad arrows? What i am after is being able to hit up, and down to highlight the buttons and enter to chose the button.

You'll need to make the buttons as movieclips so that you can control which display state they are in (highlighted versus not).
Then you need to set up a listener for the keyboard keys so that you can have the selected button change and the execute if the Enter is pressed. Here is a basic setup for a keyboard listener that shows how to detect the three keys you mentioned...
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,keyIsDown);
function keyIsDown(e:KeyboardEvent):void {
         if (e.keyCode == Keyboard.DOWN) {
                 trace("DOWN");
         } else if (e.keyCode == Keyboard.UP) {
                 trace("UP");
         } else if (e.keyCode == Keyboard.ENTER) {
                 trace("ENTER");

How to make a selected item in woodstock Basic's drop down list highlighted

I am trying to create a JSF web page and populate Woodstock Basic drop down with options from a MySql database and highlight some options that a user had selected from previous session. How do I make the selected items appear highlighted?
I would appreciate a response soon.
Thanks,
ITTSwengr79

More specific? It can´t be more specific. Maybe you want me to be less specific.
At any way, this coding example should say more than enough.
<sometaglib:someInputComponent value="#{someBean.someProperty}" />
public class SomeBean {
    private String someProperty; // +getter +setter
    public SomeBean() {
        this.someProperty = "some default value";
}

My web based email: When creating an email, entering the to, cc, or bcc, after typing first intials, it no longer gives me a choice in a drop down menu. HELP

Until about 2 days ago, I did not have any problem with my webbased GoDaddy email. Now with your update, I can not put in the first letters of the person nor group I am emailing and choose from my email dropdown list of potential email contacts either individual nor group. Instead, I have to go to the directory, choose who I am emailing, find them by sorting, select them, one by one, and then click done for each one, then go back to the email. What a hassle! I called GoDaddy, they said it is the browser. I have my you with my frequent pins up on this browser. I checked internet explorer, and it works like yours use to work. I click the To: box, start typing the person's name and there is a drop down list that enables me to choose the person or the group. HELP

Sorry I have no solution but this happened to me after Hulu told me to clear my browser cache (history) to be able to watch a video that stopped abruptly (Hulu lied; you rarely need to clear the cache.)
You can back up your browser history to keep this from being a problem in the future.

How do I customize the background color of the Bookmarks Drop Down Menu?

The drop down bookmark menu is a very light grey and the highlighting is also very light and hard to see. Where in about:config can I change these colors.
Also is there a way to bold certain bookmark items in the bookmark menu?
I'm using ver. 19.02

I appreciate the amount of time you put into typing up the example and I'm sure the example is great, but again...I have no idea how to use it or where to put it.
You were supposed to install [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/stylish/ the Stylish extension]. Once installed, there's a new category in the Add-ons Manager called User Styles. In that category, there's a button labeled Write New Style which opens a window where you can paste or write CSS code; click the Preview button to see what how your style affects the interface or a web page, or the Save button to keep it.
Styles in the userChrome.css file cannot be previewed, and any changes only take effect after restarting Firefox. Since the ChromeEdit Plus extension simply allows you to edit that file, presumably it has the same limitations.
Anyway...

How do I designate what menu items I want in bold face?
The relevant bit of information is the bookmark or folder name. Note the value of the label attribute in the above example (the stuff between quotation marks); that's how you show the Recently Bookmarked folder in bold text. You can combine several selectors (the stuff before the first { character) into one by separating them with a comma, like so:
<pre><nowiki>#bookmarksMenuPopup menu[label="Some folder"],
#bookmarksMenuPopup menu[label="A different folder"],
#bookmarksMenuPopup menuitem[label="This one's a bookmark"],
#bookmarksMenuPopup menuitem[label="Some other bookmark"],
#bookmarksMenuPopup menu[label="Yet another folder"] {
font-weight: bold !important;
}</nowiki></pre>
You're welcome.

How to make single file from multiple PDF image?

Hi, it's my first question in SCN.
I promise my efforts for developing this site.
Lately, I made multiple PDF image by function 'CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF'.(each spool ID)
And I wanna make single .PDF file by merging these image in server directory(not local PC).
So I tried it following.
1. Each internal table resulted from CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF append one internal table.
   BL_PDF + MF_PDF → PDF
2. Excute following command.
OPEN DATASET P_FILE FOR OUTPUT MESSAGE LV_MSG IN BINARY MODE.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
    LOOP AT PDF.
      MOVE PDF TO FIELD.
      TRANSFER FIELD TO P_FILE.
      CLEAR PDF.
    ENDLOOP.
    CLOSE DATASET P_FILE.
ENDIF.
But files was not merged, only last image was made as .PDF file instead.
How can I do it?
Thank you.

Hi Sangrok,
Instead of preparing PDF multiple times, you can combine all the OTF data and then finally convert it into PDF. For saving the PDF onto application server, you can refer following report.
