jQuery - getting custom attribute from selected option
Given the following:
<select id="location">
<option value="a" myTag="123">My option</option>
<option value="b" myTag="456">My other option</option>
</select>
<input type="hidden" id="setMyTag" />
<script>
$(function() {
$("#lo开发者_开发问答cation").change(function(){
var element = $(this);
var myTag = element.attr("myTag");
$('#setMyTag').val(myTag);
});
});
</script>
That does not work...
What do I need to do to get the value of the hidden field updated to the value of myTag when the select is changed. I'm assuming I need to do something about getting the currently selected value...?You're adding the event handler to the <select> element.
Therefore, $(this) will be the dropdown itself, not the selected <option>.
You need to find the selected <option>, like this:
var option = $('option:selected', this).attr('mytag');
Try this:
$(function() {
$("#location").change(function(){
var element = $(this).find('option:selected');
var myTag = element.attr("myTag");
$('#setMyTag').val(myTag);
});
});
That because the element is the "Select" and not "Option" in which you have the custom tag.
Try this: $("#location option:selected").attr("myTag").
Hope this helps.
Suppose you have many selects. This can do it:
$('.selectClass').change(function(){
var optionSelected = $(this).find('option:selected').attr('optionAtribute');
alert(optionSelected);//this will show the value of the atribute of that option.
});
Try this:
$("#location").change(function(){
var element = $("option:selected", this);
var myTag = element.attr("myTag");
$('#setMyTag').val(myTag);
});
In the callback function for change(), this refers to the select, not to the selected option.
You're pretty close:
var myTag = $(':selected', element).attr("myTag");
The easiest one,
$('#location').find('option:selected').attr('myTag');
Simpler syntax if one form.
var option = $('option:selected').attr('mytag')
... if more than one form.
var option = $('select#myform option:selected').attr('mytag')
Here is the entire script with an AJAX call to target a single list within a page with multiple lists. None of the other stuff above worked for me until I used the "id" attribute even though my attribute name is "ItemKey". By using the debugger
Chrome Debug
I was able to see that the selected option had attributes: with a map to the JQuery "id" and the value.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/JavaScript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<select id="List1"></select>
<select id="List2">
<option id="40000">List item #1</option>
<option id="27888">List item #2</option>
</select>
<div></div>
</body>
<script type="text/JavaScript">
//get a reference to the select element
$select = $('#List1');
//request the JSON data and parse into the select element
$.ajax({
url: 'list.json',
dataType:'JSON',
success:function(data){
//clear the current content of the select
$select.html('');
//iterate over the data and append a select option
$.each(data.List, function(key, val){
$select.append('<option id="' + val.ItemKey + '">' + val.ItemText + '</option>');
})
},
error:function(){
//if there is an error append a 'none available' option
$select.html('<option id="-1">none available</option>');
}
});
$( "#List1" ).change(function () {
var optionSelected = $('#List1 option:selected').attr('id');
$( "div" ).text( optionSelected );
});
</script>
</html>
Here is the JSON File to create...
{
"List":[
{
"Sort":1,
"parentID":0,
"ItemKey":100,
"ItemText":"ListItem-#1"
},
{
"Sort":2,
"parentID":0,
"ItemKey":200,
"ItemText":"ListItem-#2"
},
{
"Sort":3,
"parentID":0,
"ItemKey":300,
"ItemText":"ListItem-#3"
},
{
"Sort":4,
"parentID":0,
"ItemKey":400,
"ItemText":"ListItem-#4"
}
]
}
Hope this helps, thank you all above for getting me this far.
$("body").on('change', '#location', function(e) {
var option = $('option:selected', this).attr('myTag');
});
var optionAttr1 = $(this).find('option:selected').attr("myTag");
var optionAttr = $('#location option:selected').attr("myTag");
Try This Example:
$("#location").change(function(){
var tag = $("option[value="+$(this).val()+"]", this).attr('mytag');
$('#setMyTag').val(tag);
});
You can also try this one as well with data-myTag
<select id="location">
<option value="a" data-myTag="123">My option</option>
<option value="b" data-myTag="456">My other option</option>
</select>
<input type="hidden" id="setMyTag" />
<script>
$(function() {
$("#location").change(function(){
var myTag = $('option:selected', this).data("myTag");
$('#setMyTag').val(myTag);
});
});
</script>
Stright forward way is :
Get selected option attribute value:
var selectedOptionAttributeValue = $('#location option:selected').attr('myTag');
Get Selected Text:
var selectedOptionText = $('#location').text();
Get selected value:
var selectedOptionValue = $('#location').val();
