get values from a list

ads

I need to get the values(items) in a list.....like I need the correct spells in the list...

How is it possible?

What is this list identified as by Sahi? Is it a < ul > tag or < ol > tag?
For ul and ol tags use _getText(_list("listId")) to get its contents.

Hi,

A small example for this:

for(var $i = 0; $i<_select("site").length; $i++)
     _alert(_getText(_select("site").options[$i]));

Copy this code to your controller window and test it on this page.

Thanks for the many options....:)

I tried with both...first one didn't work out....its a drop down where u can select for diff options.

Pankaj this one worked and I could get the alerts...for each selection....is there any other way to

get it printed in a result file...since I need to get the contents(correct spells).....

If you are using the latest build,

_getText(_select("id"))

will return an array of all options

Hi,

If you want to log the values into the result file you can simply use the _log() in place of _alert()

Thanks Pankaj...

Yes tried with log() and succees for _log(_getText(_select("lang"))); which logs "english" which is selected one presently.

For, for(var $i = 0; $i<_select("lang").length; $i++)
_log(_getText(_select("lang").options[$i]));

not logging in results.How to get in with all values in the drop down?
