Is it possible to copy data from a drop down menu instead of having to re-type all the data again?

I am trying to create a form for safety inspections. I need have a list of employees in a drop down menu format. Is there a way to copy the populated drop down menu to be used several times in the document?

Hi SwitchInc,
Yes, you can. Please refer to the Screen Shot, hope this help.

  • Selecting the XML data from a drop-down menu or links

    Hi, I have this page:
    http://www.georgeglazer.com/prints/nathist/botanical/volckinv/volckinv.html
    There are prints of lemons/limes and prints of oranges. I
    want to have the visitor select which kind of fruit from either a
    drop-menu or from two links that look something like this:
    Lemons/Limes | Oranges. Looking at other help docs I found the
    region/state mapping demo at
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/data_region/StateMappingSample.html,
    and copied the code and tried to modify it. But I don't really
    understand the technical shorthand of the help docs (an ongoing
    problem I have with the Spry documentation) and I couldn't find the
    XML docs that the region/state mapping demos are based on so I
    couldn't see how they were set up.
    I got as far as this: nothing loads initially when you open
    the page (I'd like the lemons to load), but if you select Oranges
    from the drop-down menu you see the oranges, and THEN once you've
    done that, you can select Lemons/Limes in the drop-down menu and
    see those. I have three XML files I've been playing around with to
    get this to work: lemons.xml, oranges.xml and inventory.xml, which
    combines the two.
    I also suspect region/state mapping might not even be exactly
    what I'm trying to do here, but I can't figure out from the
    documentation exactly what this thing I'm trying to do is called. I
    know the photo album demo accomplishes something similar, and I
    could do that, but it seems way more complicated than what I need
    here (right?). Help will be appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Helen

    I made a different test using the file
    http://www.georgeglazer.com/prints/nathist/botanical/volckinv/inventory.xml
    and
    http://www.georgeglazer.com/prints/nathist/botanical/volckinv/volcktest.html
    where I sent up the inventory xml form like one I found in the
    Nested XML Data documentation where you have item ids and types, so
    all the oranges and lemons are in one XML document (which I'd
    prefer).
    Here's an abbreviated version of the inventory.xml:
    <inv_items>
    <inv_item id="1" type="lemon">
    <name>Lemons and Limes</name>
    <title>Cedro Ordinario</title>
    <plate>116a</plate>
    <fullimage>pl116a.jpg</fullimage>
    <tn>pl116a-2.jpg</tn>
    </inv_item>
    [and more lemons follow]
    <inv_item id="19" type="orange">
    <name>Oranges and Others</name>
    <title>La Zucchetta Imperiale</title>
    <plate>138a</plate>
    <fullimage>pl138a.jpg</fullimage>
    <tn>pl138a-2.jpg</tn>
    </inv_item>
    [and more oranges follow]
    </inv_items>
    What I'd like to do is display the names "Lemons and Limes"
    and "Oranges and Others" and when you click on "Lemons and Limes"
    you see only the thumbnails for lemons and limes, and when you
    click on "Oranges and Others" you see the thumbnails for only
    those. I'd like the Lemons and Limes to be selected when the page
    is opened.
    Help greatly appreciated!

  • Selecting data from a drop down menu

    Hey all
    I am trying to create a golf leaderboard. It reads from a text file, then generates the playing pairs. These pairs are then output in a drop down menu. I want now to be able to fill in scores for the pair that is selected, and for it to be added to the scoreboard. Is there a way of doing this??
    If you need anymore info or code, just let me know.
    Thanks to everyone in advance.

  • Is there a way to change the date format so that delegates have to choose a day, month and year from a drop down menu as my delegates keep forgetting to change the year of their information

    When my delegates are filling in a event form i have put together, a large number of them forget to change either the month or year on the date field. Is there a way to have a date field that has drop down boxes for day, month and year so they have to choose rather than a date been already on the screen??
    Thanks

    Hi Christopher,
    The WEEKDAY function allows specifying either Sunday or Monday as the first day of the week:
    WEEKDAY
    The WEEKDAY function returns a number that is the day of the week for a given date. WEEKDAY(date, first-day)
      date:  The date the function should use. date is a date/time value. The time portion is ignored by this function.
      first-day: An optional value that specifies how days are numbered.
    Sunday is 1 (1 or omitted):  Sunday is the first day (day 1) of the week and Saturday is day 7.
    Monday is 1 (2):  Monday is the first day (day 1) of the week and Sunday is day 7. Monday is 0 (3):  Monday is the first day (day 0) of the week and Sunday is day 6.
    But I think you are referring to the first day of the 'workweek', for which I do not see a means of defining a custom value.
    Since you want to 'insert categories', though, you could easily define your own, using WEEKDAY(date) or WEEKDAY(date,1), plus an IF statement to return the category label appropriate to the day. Here's one for a Sunday to Thursday work week. Dates are in column A, the formula is in whichever column you want as the Category column. For the example, I've placed it in column B.
    B2, and filled down: =IF(WEEKDAY(A)<6,"Work","Off")
    The top table shows the weekday numbers returned for each day of the week for each of the three permitted values for the optional second argument. The bottom table shows the results from the formula above, used to define a category label for each date:
    A10 was left blank intentionally, to determine if the lack of data resulted in an error. The Warning message, flagged by the blue 'warning' triangle, is "The formula uses a number in place of a date." The 'date' assigned to this numerical value of zero was a Friday, but I'm not certain when. Probably best to avoid extra rows with no date shown.

  • 2006 iMac running 10.4 OS. I copied files to ext. drive. Put in 10.6 disc and did a clean install (format) of 10.6. Copied data from ext. drive back to Mac. I didn't get all the files. CAN I REVERT BACK TO THE 10.4 OS SO I CAN COPY MY DATA PROPERLY?

    How did you copy files to the external drive, and what files did you copy? Did you drag and drop in the Finder? Use a clone utility? What files did not successfully copy?
    If you reformatted the drive as part of your install, then you won't be able to recover any files from the drive. Reverting back to (reinstalling) 10.4 will not help you.
    Do you have a complete-drive backup of your old system?

    My computer crashed and I have to get my data from my old drive to another computer, to ensure I get all my data what do I need to get.  I have and ipad and an iphone.  I need to get apps, contacts, pictures, etc.  Is there a way to do this? It was a vista pc and the new is win 7. I can grab the backup files, and music, but what about my apps? I do not want to sync on the new pc since the apps aren't there.  Were are the app files located in itunes? Can I just copy them to the new computer?

    You can transfer itunes purchases:  File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
    The iphone is not a storage/backup device.  The sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The exception is itunes purchases.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.

    Hi Rosalin,
    Loop the hidden table, get the values and populate drop down in each iteration.
    DropDownList1.addItem("Text","Value");
    You can use one more solution for this scenario. If it is a matter of 2,3 dropdowns, put three dropDowns in the form layout and give seperate static data binding to them. At run time make the dropDowns hide/visible as per the requirement.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks & Regards,

    yep Ajax is d right way 2 do so.
    So can use DWR(ajax tech.) for dis/
    To implement dis dere r simple steps u hav 2 follow
    1. entry for <dwr> tag in web.xml
    2. entry for <onverter>in web.xml
    3. In jsp u write
    <script type="text/javascript" src="<%=appName%>/dwr/engine.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="<%=appName%>/dwr/util.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript"src="<%=appName%>/dwr/interface/ClassService.js"></script>

  • Is it possible to add weather to my drop down menu on ios7?

    Is it possible to add weather to my drop down menu on ios7?

    I had this same trouble. 
    Necessary Settings:
    Location Services on.  Weather Location services on (both in Privacy Settings)
    Today Summary on (in Notification Center Settings)
    You need to use the weather application at least once post ios 7 download so it can sync with your location.  Make sure you have it set on your current location and not another city.
    If it still doesn't show up, go back into the notification center settings and turn today summary off and then on again.
    Your weather should show as written summary under the date and time

  • Reading from HTML Drop-Down Menu into JSP

    Hi folks. I'm am just delving into JSP, and I have a very basic question. I've been looking around the internet for a good tutorial on how to read HTML form input data into my JSP page. I really haven't found anything, and was hoping that you could provide me with some good resources. I want to have just a basic HTML drop-down menu with a SQL query executed based on the menu selection. The selection from the drop-down menu should go into the SQL query where "Shawnee" currently is. Here is my JSP code:
    <%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252" import="java.sql.*"%>
    <%     
    try
         Class.forName("net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver");
           Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://khrcs4:1433/Mail_List;user=xxxx;password=xxxx");
           System.out.println("success");
           Statement st = con.createStatement();
           ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery("select * from contacts where class like '%First Time Home Buyer Lenders%' and served like '%Shawnee%' order by company");
           while(rs.next())
              out.println(rs.getString(3)+"<br>"); //company
              out.println(rs.getString(12)+"<br>"); //address
              //out.println(rs.getString(13)+"<br>"); //address2
              out.println(rs.getString(8)+", "+rs.getString(9)+" "+rs.getString(14)+"<br>"); //city, state zip
              out.println(rs.getString(7)+"<br><br>"); //phone
    catch (Exception ex)
         ex.printStackTrace();
    %>

    ArrayList recList = new ArrayList();
    while(rs.next())
         recList.add(rs.getString(3));
    put the recList in the session.
    session.setAttribute("allrecords",recList);
    Then in your jsp, get the recList from the session and loop it,
    ArrayList recList = (ArrayList)session.getAttribute("allrecords");
    for (var i=0; i < recList.size();++i){
         addOption(document.getElementById("drop-down box name"), valarray, valarray[i]);
    function addOption(selectbox,text,value)
         var optn = document.createElement("OPTION");
         optn.text = trim(text);

    I transferred data to my MacBook Pro, then I accidentally did an UNDO and all the data desapeared....What can I do to recover it???

    Sorry, but it's probably lost, then, presuming you never made a backup. There's a dim chance that you could recover at least some of the data using a file recovery utility such as Data Rescue from Prosoft Engineering, but the chances aren't good and get lower the more you use your computer.

  • Select customer name from a drop down Select List or be able to type it in

    Hi,
    Is there a way to allow my users to have an option to either select a customer name from a drop down Select List or be able to type it in...
    Thanks in advance

    This is an excellent option for another application but in this one I would prefer a drop down list to allow my users to see all the orders (to pick from the list) or type it in if they can't find it in the list...
    I know how to create a drop down select list but not sure what to do to allow users to be able to manually type in as well...
    Thanks

  • Linking a page as a browser window from a drop-down menu item

    I have tried to link from a drop-down menu item to link to a small browser window instead of a full page.  I tried using the "behaviors" but I got both the regular page and the browser window.  Is there a way to make it just the browser window.
    Thanks.

    I tried that target=_Blank" but I still got the regular page plus the small browser window .  I got rid of the Behavior for now.  My aim is to would display the page in a simple 450 wide x 450 long browser window with a scroll bar with nothing else.  If you can give me a code hint to do that, It would be appreciated.  I'll figure out the rest.
    My HTML coding skills are limited, as I'm used to using FP.(FP seems to be to the Web circles as the Bard's Scottish Play is to the theatrical world)
