Disable input fields based on selection from drop down
- by Thomas
I have a drop down box and some text input fields below it. Based on which item from the drop down menu the user selects, I would like to disable some of the fields. I think I am failing to target the input fields correctly but I can't figure out what the problem is:
Here is the script I have gotten so far:
$(document).ready(function(){
var customfield = $('#customfields-tf-19-tf');
var customfield1 = $('#customfields-tf-20-tf');
var customfield2 = $('#customfields-tf-13-tf');
$(function() {
var call_table = {
'Condominium': function() {
customfield.attr("disabled");
},
'Co-Op': function() {
customfield1.attr("disabled");
},
'Condop': function() {
customfield2.attr("disabled");
}
};
$('#customfields-s-18-s').change(function() {
call_table[this.value]();
});
});
});
And the layout for my form:
<td width="260" class="left">
<label for="customfields-s-18-s">Ownership (Required):</label>
</td>
<td class="right">
<select name="customfields-s-18-s" class="dropdown" id="customfields-s-18-s" size="" >
<option value="Condominium"> Condominium</option>
<option value="Co-Op"> Co-Op</option>
<option value="Condop"> Condop</option>
</select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="260" class="left">
<label for="customfields-tf-19-tf">Maintenance:</label>
</td>
<td class="right">
<input type="text" title="Maintenance" class="textInput" name="customfields-tf-19-tf" id="customfields-tf-19-tf" size="40"/>
</td>
</tr>
<tr id="newsletter_topics">
<td width="260" class="left">
<label for="customfields-tf-20-tf">Taxes:</label>
</td>
<td class="right">
<input type="text" title="Taxes" class="textInput" name="customfields-tf-20-tf" id="customfields-tf-20-tf" size="40" />
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="260" class="left">
<label for="customfields-tf-13-tf" class="required">Tax Deductibility:</label>
</td>
<td class="right">
<input type="text" title="Tax Deductibility" class="textInput" name="customfields-tf-13-tf" id="customfields-tf-13-tf" size="40" />
</td>
</tr>
