      <description>I am using the following library's

		<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/jquery.js"></script>
		<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/jquery.metadata.js"></script>
		<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/jquery.validate.js"></script>		
		<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/jquery.chainSelects.js"></script>		


The chainselects works fine on a page by itself, but when I combine with jquery and validate functionality it blows up &function undefined.

      <description>So.. if you want to get it working on FF,IE6 and IE7

jquery.chainedSelects.js >> Line 36:
36: parameters : { '_id' : $(this).attr('id'), '_name' : $(this).attr('name') },
37: } , settings);
Remove comma at the end:

IN THE END IT WILL LOOK LIKE:
parameters : { '_id' : $(this).attr('id'), '_name' : $(this).attr('name') }
37: } , settings);


AND CHANGE line 53 TO:

$(target).get(0).add(new Option(data[i][key],[key]), document.all ? i : null);

it works :)

Array in PHP looks like 

$array = array('1'=>'22','2'=>'222','3'=>'444','5'=>'666','7'=>'88888'); </description>

      <description>I'm reading a directory of .mp3 files to create my second select list, but when I run the script I get this:

Error: invalid label
Source File: http://[mydomain].com/jquery.chainedSelects.js
Line: 48, Column: 4
Source Code:
{"0":["No Track"],"1":{"1":"23-29 Tick Tock Blues.mp3"},"2" .....
-----^

I can't for the life of me figure out why json_encode($array) would place square brackets around the first item, and curly brackets around the rest. Thoughts?</description>

      <description>Hi

I have a JSP page which has 6 combo boxes.When i select a value in the first combo the other 5 will filter with values which is done using AJAX. Now the problem is if the value i selected in the first combo has a size say 50 the screen looks very bad with scroll bars on both sides....All the combos size varies according to the value selected in first one....

Can anyone give an idea to have all the combo boxes sizes fixed irrespective of how the AJAX fires.</description>

with something like:

    {
	$array[] = array($count => '$count');
    }

I get this firebug error:

      <description>Remy: Works here in ie 7 (thanks!). In ie 6, almost: the first select triggers ok, but when you click the 2nd or 3rd select you get a "object does not accept this property or method" (translation from spanish, so may be innacurate. The error is referring to a jquery method, not this script.</description>

      <description>Ok, I have been following this and have had a couple of issues, I stripped down my production environment to the bare essentials and ran my scripts in FF and IE7. I had no problems with FF and Firebug helped immensely. IE would not play ball, even though I had tried glenn's code (which incidentally precludes FF). 

I have been doing a bit of digging around and looked at other jQuery options for modifying the select list. The following line has been verified on IE7 and Firefox 2 and I have used it in place of Glenn's solution. I would be interested to hear how this works in IE6.

$(target).get(0).add(new Option(data[i][key],[key]),document.all ? 0 : null);

      <description>When I try using this I get a page error: expected ";"

I know my JSON is well formed and have even tried to force a semi-colon in just to see and the results are the same. I also can't get the demo to work? I don't see a script error but the effect is the same, select an option and the other select boxes are made visible but with no members? I have tried IE7/Firefox.</description>

      <description>It seems my previous posting didn't correctly arrive:

This is the line you need to use to get results in IE:

<code>
$(target).append("<option value="+key+">"+data[i][key]+"</option>");
</code>
<br/>

Replace all in the inner for loop with this line.

Btw, I really like this implementation, the size of the plugin is also heaven and I'm a big fan of php/jquery combo.  This was right up my alley and it's being used in a production site as wel speak.

Thanks codeassembly.  If you need some help with finetuning this let me know.

      <description>Hi,

For those who have trouble getting this in IE6 to work:

replace:

//option = document.createElement("OPTION");//create a new option
//option.value = key;//set option value  
//option.text = data[i][key];
//$(target).append(option); //insert the option into the select

With :
//insert the option into the select
$(target).append("<option value="+key+">"+data[i][key]+"</option>"); 

There is something up with passing the .text attribute to the way it's constructed here.  for some reason it does't work in IE and I cant be bothered to find out how to access the dom there.  I could tell in FF that it was working.

For any cache issues perhaps you could also change the parameter line to this one:

 parameters = { '_id' : $(this).attr('id'), '_name' : $(this).attr('name'), '_value' : $(this).val() , 'rrand' : Math.random()
};

As such it will not cache the request as some IE's don't even listen to the ajax global options.

Hope this helps some people here.

      <description>Hi again,

I have changed the following plugin script line:


$(target).append(option);//insert the option into the select



with this other one

$(target).append('<OPTION VALUE='+key+'>'+data[i][key]+'</OPTION>');//insert the option into the select 

and now the script works also in IE. 

I hope this help somebody ;)

      <description>I'm glad you liked it. I updated the example, it now displays a "Loading ..." div while fetching data. You can replace the div with a spinner gif.
