Hi,
I have the following code, but the script part is not getting executed.... I checked it with an Alert.
<html>
<head>
<title>Sample code</title>
</head>
<body>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function CHK_CAT_SELECT(){
var CAT_SLC = document.frm_cat_lst.prod_access_area_frm_slc.options[document.frm_cat_lst.prod_access_area_frm_slc.selectedIndex].value;
if (CAT_SLC!= ""){
alert(CAT_SLC); // make sure it works
// document.frm_mdl_lst.prod_access_mdel_frm_slc.... // set me
return true;
}
function CHK_MDL_SELECT() {
var MDL_SLC = document.frm_mdl_lst.prod_access_mdel_frm_slc.value;
if (MDL_SLC != "") {
return true;
}
}
</script>
<form name="frm_cat_lst" action="http://njitswgt02/scripts/wgate/z_bic_offc/!?~template=bic_prod_access_lst&~event=get_models&prod_cat_area=ZROOT" method="post" onSubmit="return CHK_CAT_SELECT()">
<select name="prod_access_area_frm_slc" onChange="document.frm_cat_lst.submit()">
<option>select a product category</option>
<option value="ZCAT01" >Printers</option>
<option value="ZCAT02" >Fax</option>
<option value="ZCAT03" >Multi-Function</option>
<option value="ZCAT04" >P-touch Labeling</option>
<option value="ZCAT05" >Laminators</option>
<option value="ZCAT06" >Stamp Creator</option>
</select>
</form>
</body>
</html>
I can't understand why this is not working.
Thanks,

your first function is missing an end curly bracket

As soon as you select an option from the selectbox, the form is submitted. The onsubmit handler defined in the form tag is NOT called.Code:<select name="prod_access_area_frm_slc" onChange="document.frm_cat_lst.submit()">
And don't forget to add a default return value (return false) to the functions.
Hope this helps,

Javascipt - Error
Hi,
Yes, thats what I also concluded. Anyways the thing which happens is that the next page is able to display the option which I selected on the previous page, but there is another dropdown box for Product Models which does not get filled.
So, I was wondering as to how this thing was being passed on to the server side script.
Thanks,
Ranjan.Ranjan Kumar
