What I'm trying to say is: when you click dropdown or select, it will fetch the data of prod_temno, prod_desc,prod_selluom then populate to the textbox named: idesc and inventoryuom. I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance.
<table>
<tr><form name="form1">
<td>Item No:</td>
<td>
<select type="text" id="inventoryitemno" name="inventoryitemno" >
<?php
foreach($itemno as $row){
echo "<option id=".$row->prod_id.">".$row->prod_itemno."</option>";
}
?>
</select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Description:</td>
<td><input type="text" id="idesc" name="idesc"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>UOM:</td>
<td><input type="text" id="inventoryuom" name="inventoryuom" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
This is my products_model
public function view_product_itemno(){
$this->load->database();
$data = $this->db->query('select prod_id, prod_itemno, prod_desc, prod_inventoryuom from product;');
return $data->result();
}
I hope this is clear for you guys. Thanks.
is this what you want?
<?php
$itemno = array('0'=>'a','1'=>'b','2'=>'c');
?>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.1.min.js" ></script>
<table>
<tr><form name="form1">
<td>Item No:</td>
<td>
<select type="text" id="inventoryitemno" name="inventoryitemno" onchange="javascript:set_to(this.value);" >
<?php
foreach($itemno as $key=>$val){
echo "<option id=".$key.">".$val."</option>";
}
?>
</select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Description:</td>
<td><input type="text" id="idesc" name="idesc"/></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>UOM:</td>
<td><input type="text" id="inventoryuom" name="inventoryuom" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
<script type="text/javascript">
function set_to(id)
{
$('#idesc').val(id);
}
</script>

I am assuming that you have to call the function when someone change the select box. You have to call the model through ajax and then put reponse into textbox:-
$('#inventoryitemno').change(function()
{
// write ajax code and call your model and dump the result into your textbox
$.ajax({
type:"POST",
data:"value="+$(this).val(),
url:"your_controller_path",
success:function(msg)
{
$('#idesc').val(msg);
}
});
});
Your controller should be like this say controller name is product_controller :-
function product_details()
{
$value = $this->input->post('value'); // value from ajax
$this->products_model->products_model($value);
echo "response"; //return the result back to ajax success function
}
What about "<DATALIST>"?
<input type=text name='somename' list='somelist'>
<datalist id="somelist">
<option value=1>One</option>
.
.
<option value=99>Ninety-Nine</option>
</datalist>
You can even fill the list from a DB with mysql
<datalist = id=somelist>
<?
$sql="select * from my_table";
$rs=mysql_query($sql,$mysql_connection);
$row=mysql_fetch_assoc($rs);
do {
printf("<option value='%s'>",$row['some_field'])}
while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($rs));
Hope that helps.
