    var listDept = [];

    $.each(SelDept, function (index, value) {
        if ($('#SelectDepartmentImpacted').length > 0) {
            //I want to have a list of all my value so I can send it to the URL
            listDept.push($(value).val()); //I want all the list value from the dropdown list like this listDept = (4,3,2,5)

        }
    });

    var output = JSON.stringify(listDept);

    $('#TxtDepartment').val('');

My Keyup event is not working

am I missing something?

$("#TxtDepartment").keyup(function(evt) {
		
	 	var SelDept = $("#SelectDepartmentImpacted option");
    	var listDept = '(';

    	$.each(SelDept, function (index, value) {
        if ($('#SelectDepartmentImpacted').length > 0) {
            listDept += $(value).val() + ',' ; 
        }
    	});
    
    	listDept = listDept.substring(0,listDept.length-1) + ')';

	//URL encoded  encodeURIComponent(myUrl)
		  $.get("getDepartmentName.cfm?listDept=" + encodeURIComponent(listDept) + "filter=" + encodeURIComponent($(this).val()), function (data) {
        dropdown.html(data);
    });

My Keyup event is not working

am I missing something?

What do you mean by this? In your question you have provided as JS function.

1) Are you getting any JS error? If so, what it says?
2) Is the control going inside keyup event function, can you keep alert inside like this & check if it is being fired?

$("#TxtDepartment").keyup(function(evt) {
    
    alert('Inside kepup event');

    // you remaining code
    ...
});

Cheers,

Md Shah,

Sorry, if I confused you.

I have the function which works fine and I also have a keyup event.

when the user enter something in a textbox it should filter their entry.

I did put an alert for testing. I do see my alert.

I am not getting any error but it's not filtering anything.

Let me do some more debugging .

the keyup event should do the same thing as the function.

Its okay. I am also trying to understand your issue here..

So the question related stuff has been answered.. This is a bit new issue ahead of it..

Ok lets see what I can help you on this then..

As an initial start.. Replace your keyup event with below code:

$("#TxtDepartment").keyup(function(evt) {

	alert('1. Key up Event fired');		
	var SelDept = $("#SelectDepartmentImpacted option");
    	var listDept = '(';

    	$.each(SelDept, function (index, value) {
	        if ($('#SelectDepartmentImpacted').length > 0) {
        	    listDept += $(value).val() + ',' ; 
	        }
    	});
    
    	listDept = listDept.substring(0,listDept.length-1) + ')';
	
	alert('2. Dropdown List Values : ' + listDept);		
	alert('3. Text Entered, Filter : ' + $(this).val());		

	//URL encoded  encodeURIComponent(myUrl)
	$.get("getDepartmentName.cfm?listDept=" + encodeURIComponent(listDept) + "filter=" + encodeURIComponent($(this).val()), function (data) {

		alert('4. GET function on success : ' + data);		
	       dropdown.html(data);
	});	
});

I have kept 4 ALERTS in the code, now run & let me know what you can see when you enter filter value in TxtDepartment

You there..????

Have you tried as said above, whats the output ?

Its already late.. I will be going to sleep shortly..

Let me know if you require any help.

Shah

I think the problem is with this (encodeURIComponent)  

Can I do that to a list?

<cfset UlistDept = urlDecode(URL.listDept, "utf-8")> 


$.get( "getDepartmentName.cfm?listDept=" + encodeURIComponent(listDept) + "&filter=" + encodeURIComponent($(this).val()), function (data) {
			dropdown.html( data );

Md Shah,

we can do it tomorrow, if you are tired and need to go to bed.

but, don't forget about me tomorrow, I need to get working.

so, I need your help.

Good night,
Lulu

What happened to above alert code I have given in my earlier post.

Are you not getting alert inside function(data) {

As you say if (encodeURIComponent) is the problem then how come it has worked earlier to keyup event when its just a JS function. So problem might be something else.

Try to perform $.get without encodeURIComponent, something like below and see if it works:

$.get( "getDepartmentName.cfm?listDept=" + listDept + "&filter=" + $(this).val(), function (data) {
			dropdown.html( data );

Let me know what this results in ???

Shah

Also try to post the structure of calling steps where you are fetching values (listDept,filter) from query string in getDepartmentName.cfm file as there can be a issue at that location too. Debug and check what values is being received.

Shah

Md Shah,

I am debugging the issue now.  

please, don't go anywhere.

Md Shah,

I am all good now!!!!!!!!!

I got it to work!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for all your help.

Could not have done it without you.

Thank you again.

Lulu

Thank you

Happy That I have been useful..

Good Luck for further coding :)
