This javascript is supposed to change the drop down's HTML as well as change the content of the corresponding div's. The first click changes the dropdown html but you cant change it back as well as you lose the little arrow on the dropdown that let users know its a dropdown. The populate checkboxes doesnt populate the div because i dont know how to make javascript let me put/remove check boxes
JAVASCRIPT:
function changeSelection() {
var x = document.getElementById("populateSelection").id;
if (x == "selectionViews") {
document.getElementById("dropdownMenuSelect").innerHTML = "Views";
document.getElementById("populateCheckBoxes").innerHTML = "";
} else {
document.getElementById("dropdownMenuSelect").innerHTML = "Tables";
document.getElementById("unpopulateCheckBoxes").innerHTML = "";
}
}
the populateCheckBoxes is supposed to have these check boxes when the tables radio button is checked, and when the unpopulaeCheckBoxes radio button is checked the div will be empty. I dont have this code in anything yet because i believe its supposed to be in the javascript but pasting that in obviously doesnt work
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<input type="checkbox" id="selectionCondition" checked/>50 million
</label>
</div>
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<input type="checkbox" id="selectionDistribution"/>100 million
</label>
</div>
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<input type="checkbox" id="selectionProgram"/>Status Quo
</label>
</div>
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<input type="checkbox" id="selectionTreatment"/>Do Nothing
</label>
</div>
HTML:
This html holds the drop down that is supposed to change and the 2 divs that are supposed to change
<form role="form">
<div class="row">
<div class="radio col-xs-2" id="populateSelection" onchange="changeSelection()">
<label>
<input type="radio" name="optradio" id="selectionTables" />Use Tables
</label>
<label>
<input type="radio" name="optradio" id="selectionViews" />Use Views
</label>
</div>
<div class="dropdown col-xs-10">
<!--DROPDOWN BUTTON-->
<button class="btn btn-default dropdown-toggle btn-xs btn-orange" type="button" id="dropdownMenuSelect" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="true" style="margin-top:10px">
Views
<span class="caret"></span>
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuSelect">
<!--DROPDOWN MENU-->
<li role="presentation"><a role="menuitem" tabindex="-1" class="link-no-jump" href="#graphOneChart">Chart</a></li>
<li role="presentation"><a role="menuitem" tabindex="-1" class="link-no-jump" href="#graphOneData">Data</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row" id="populateCheckBoxes"></div>
<div class="row" id="unpopulateCheckBoxes"></div>
</form>
