In a ComboBox control HTML character entities

I was wondering if anyone knew of any way to make HTML character entities appear in a drop-down list box? I want to create a selection combobox of various chemical elements (such as H20), and I have a chemical policy that I would use, that will translate by the & #num; in the character correctly. I can do this in a text box, but because I need to put them in a ComboBox, I was hoping someone knew how to do this.

Thank you!

Peter,

I managed to find the answer to my question just to play with the code. So that the table with the character in, I needed to use in the HTMLComboBox component, rather than htmlText = "{data.label}". "

Now on the fun task of changing all my variables to use the html characters...

Again, thank you for your help! I really appreciate it!

  • HTML character entities problem research saved regex and replace the query

    I have a many search / replace regular expression queries (.dwr file) that I saved. I have a problem specifically with saved queries that contain HTML entities such as "& nbsp;" or "& shy;" (added spaces code otherwise is not rendered in the browser). For example if I use the following search:

  • Is it possible to open a control of type-def as string programmaticly combobox control, change it and then close by nodes invoke/property?

    This may sound crazy; but I was looking through methods and solution properties do the following:

    1. Open a cluster of type strict-def.

    2. Add an element in a chain of the Combobox control.

    3. Register the control.

    4. Close the type-def.

    LabVIEW provides the tools to do this within its broad range of pallets?

    Second step is easy, as long as the control or parent cluster is not a strict type def.

    G.R.

    It's tedious, but simple using the VI server / scripting.  First of all, make sure that the elements of additional scripts are enabled in the VI server options.  Now open the typedef as you would a VI.  In the scripts, a typedef is like a VI with no block diagram, only a front panel and control.  You can get a reference to the control that you need to change in one of the following two ways:

    1. Open its containers from top to bottom, using the reference container as the entrance to the owner for the opening of the new control.

    2. Use of the crosses in the script palette VI

    In all cases, after change it, save using recording method tools and you should be good to go.  The most difficult part is to get the reference to the control.  If you are having problems, let us know.

  • Use a combobox control to access scenes with as3

    I am a novice.  I try to use a combobox control to navigate to a different scene in my. Fla.  I was able to use a conditional statement (if) that seems to work but it only allows me to use the 'if' and a 'else if' stated once before giving an error.  I have reviewed all the information on the use of a 'switch', but did not have a chance to understand the coding or make it work.  Here is the code I wrote.  Can someone give me some advice?  Thanks in advance.

    Else if (cb1.selectedItem.label == "C - D")

    A quick glance, it looks like you are missing an opening brace after your second if()

    Else if (cb1.selectedItem.label == "C - D") {}

    In addition, it is probably just a mistake of copying and pasting, you are short a closing brace of the function

    function home_dl(e:Event)

    {

    If (cb1.selectedItem.label is 'A - B')

    {

    gotoAndPlay (65, "a - b" "");

  • How to use the combobox control to filter datagrid in Flash Builder 4?

    Hello

    I worked through the TestDrive with Flash Builder 4 application and I would like to know how to filter a datagrid using a combobox control.  I googled the subject and results for many different versions of Flash, some who look like they're going to take a considerable amount of time to implement.  I hope, with Flash Builder 4, there is a simple way to do this without writing code pages.

    I think I can be close to getting this work by passing the combobox value in a PHP script that queries the database with a WHERE clause.

    Thakns,

    David

    On the change of the ComboBox, you can filter on the ArrayCollection.source that contains the data. And define the table filtered as the dataprovider for a datagrid. Take a look at the function of class filter Array.

    Why do?

    First, set the prompt property of your comboBox control for "-select -" or something like that

    Then, you can control whether the selectedIndex property of your combobox is greater than-1.

  • Get the ComboBox control to work in AS3

    Hi all

    Am very new to AS and try to get a comboBox control to work. I copied and pasted the following on the Adobe site in frame 1:

    my_cb. AddItem ({data: 1, label: "An object"});
    my_cb. AddItem ({data: 2, label: "the second point"});

    my_cb.addEventListener ("change", cbListener);

    I have a comboBox control named my_cb onstage. But when I run it, I get this error: "1118: implicit constraint of a static type value Object to a type perhaps unrelated function.»

    I can't wait to head, so I try to decipher what you try to do it from code, but here's a revised version that might get you where you're going (?):

  • SelectedItem() ComboBox control

    I have a combobox, cb, I need to programmatically set the selection. The combobox has been completed by:

    cd.addItem({data:"string1",label:"string1"});)
    cd.addItem({data:"string2",label:"string2"});)
    cd.addItem({data:"string3",label:"string3"});)

    Lets say I want to set the ComboBox to "word2", I tried all of the following characteristics, no work:

    cb.selectedItem ("string2");
    cb.selectedItem(data:"string2");
    cb.selectedItem(label:"string2");
    cb.selectedItem({data:"string2",label:"string2"});)

    The docs say selectedItem() is read/write, but all the examples I can find are read-only.

    selectedItem is a property (selectedItem =...), is not a method (selectedItem (...)) and he do not get or set the item selected... He Gets or sets the value of the selected item (cb.selectedItem.label =...).

    selectedIndex is another property, which gets or sets the index of the selected item. So if you want to programmatically change what is selected, you must use it.

    PS - If you have copied and pasted this code into your file, you fill an instance called "cd", but trying to control something called "cb".

  • Referring to a ComboBox control dynamically in function

    I am trying to add things in a piece of XML data for all ComboBox components in a movie. I'm trying to go through a loop for () that calls a function for each ComboBox stored in a table name. I've tried several things, but I get no result or the same error 'the class or interface 'ComboBox' could not be loaded'... it returned an error:

    function addComboBoxItem(ccbName:ComboBox,strDesc:String,strID:String):Void {}

    I tried something else by sending the instance ComboBox string name, but it has no result or error:

  • Definition of results of the label text of the indication in the ComboBox control does not

    Hi all

    I created a form of table ADF Swing. Then, in a tab of the properties of the attributes of the dialog editor of Table Bindning, I put one of the fields as a ComboBox Editor.

    When the form is lance everything is ok - this field drop downs combobox with data from another VO.

    But when I put text field of the label of the tab to control EO or VO indicators stops ComboBox works - it works as if it was default editor - textfield, i.e. it displays the value of a base table.

    The following approach is not good, but in any case, I would like to note that when I change an attribute value 'name' of the 'AttrProp' tag to that of I put in the text field of the label of the EO (the ' label'):

    <? XML version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"? >
    < pageDefinition...
    ...
    < links >
    < table...
    ...
    < AttrProp name = "Label" >
    ...
    < / pageDefinition >

    at the launch of the form everything starts working again, but when I try to change this field by just clicking the value/text field the following exception is thrown:
    oracle.jbo.NoDefException: Houston-25058: definition of Curr type attribute in SomeView1 not found.

    I use JDeveloper 10.1.3.3.0 (Build JDEVADF_10.1.3.3.0_NT_070619.1129.4157), ADF - 10.1.3.41.57 business components.

  • [UN] control HTML checkbox with the attribute

    I am trying to check and uncheck aby adding and removing the checked = 'checked' attribute using javascript (jQuery).  Does not work; nothing happens. It works very well in desktop browsers, well.  Adding and deleting disabled = "disabled" works perfectly.  I've seen other posts on this topic on the internet, but not answers.

    I am writing in XHTML 1.0 Strict, where the checked = "checked", but I have tried all around switching to HTML 4.1 and just using checked no equal sign or value, and it still doesn't work.

    I'm working on Eclipse with the BlackBerry 4.6.0.200904091609 Simulator - 212.

    Any ideas? Thank you.

    It works, but I had to do it this way:

  • Control HTML 5 validation is successful or not

    I need to check if the native HTML 5 validation is successful or not. Based on what I call a function ajax.

    Sample code is here. http://jsfiddle.NET/inDiscover/4Pbcp/

    Also provides the code example below.

    <! DOCTYPE html >

    < html >

    < head >

    < title > dialogue jQuery UI: open dialogue on Clicksssssssssss < / title >

    "" < link rel = "stylesheet" href = "... /CSS/jQuery-UI.CSS" / >

    "< link rel ="stylesheet"href ="... / / CSS/style. CSS"/ >

    "< script type =" text/javascript"src ="... / scripts/jquery.js "> < / script >"

    "" < script type = "text/javascript" src = "... /scripts/jQuery-UI.js" > < / script >

    "< script type =" text/javascript"src ="... / scripts/jquery.validate.js "> < / script >"

    < script type = "text/javascript" >

    $(function() {})

    $("#pop_submit").click (function)

    {

    Alert ("am here");

    Returns false;

    });

    });

    < /script >

    < / head >

    < body >

    < div id = "popup" style = "display: block" >

    < do action = "" name = "pop_up_form" id = "pop_up_form" method = "post" > "

    < Input class = "pop_up_textbox" type = "text" name = "acct_nmbr" id = "acct_nmbr" necessary maxlength = "19" value = "" / >

    < input type = "submit" name = "pop_submit" id = "pop_submit" style = "display: block;" / >

    < / make >

    < / div >

    < / body >

    < / html >

    Here in the jquery code, I put an alert when sending the key. But I need to show this alert only after successful HTML 5 native validation. If someone can point out me is how can y do so that I can call a function ajax instead of an alert message after successful native HTML 5 validation.

    I know that we can use JQuery validator to validate a form using the valid() method, but I don't want to go in this direction. I need to know if my native HTML 5 validation is successful and if I should do a logic.

    Abdul,

    I meant no disrespect.  There are many who use these forums who don't understand the difference between client-side and server-side code and only to see things from the point of view "ColdFusion".  They tend to ask and web development all issues here, rather than in more appropriate forums.  With only the limited information provided in your message to go, I painted without meaning to you in the same bag.  For that, I apologize.

    I'm probably not the only person who came to this conclusion, however.  If you had understood that bit in your original post:

    As you suggest I posted in stackoverflow, but no luck, I posted in jquery forumn too but there also use...

    It would have been obvious that you had made efforts to find an answer in the most appropriate locations and members of the forum would be less likely to jump on your issue.

    In any case, I just did a little research on Google and can have an answer for you.  Take a look at the form checkValidity() (API HTML5 method) method to see if it will accomplish what you need.  An excellent tutorial on native HTML5 Forms validation is located here.  I'll post this reply on your StackOverflow question too, in case it helps others.

  • Customization of the style (font, color, etc.) of a combobox control

    Hello

    Is anyone know how to change the police and look across to a ComboBox in Flash / ActionScript 3?

    There are theme files, I could download, or a script that I can use?

    I'm quite familiar with AS3 / Flash, but have never had need of a combobox so far of the skin.

    Pointers would be much appreciated!

    Thank you very much

    You can style the main text (assuming your name of the instance of cb combobox) with:

    var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat ("Arial", 24, 0xFF0000);
    cb.textField.setStyle ("textFormat", tf);

    the drop is more problematic - I have never been able to properly do this style (perhaps because it is not created until it must be displayed if setStyle gets ignored?)
