JavaScript get selected index from dropdown
Using JS to add to a dropdown from Salesforce repeater prefills. This works great, however, when I try to get the selected value when a user selects from the dropdown (tfa_4) and add to a text box (tfa_25), I get undefined. I've tried .selectedIndex -1, +1 and just selectedIndex and sometimes it works but only on one or two selected values and not in the right order
<script type="text/javascript"> window.onload = document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function() { document.getElementById("tfa_4").options.length=0; var option = document.createElement("option"); option.text = "Select Tour Date"; document.getElementById("tfa_4").add(option); var startDate = document.querySelectorAll('[id^=tfa_9]'); var campaignRepaterID = document.querySelectorAll('[id^=tfa_26]'); for(var i in startDate){ textToWrite = startDate[i].value; if (textToWrite) { if (textToWrite.length > 1) { displayTime = textToWrite; addToDropdown(displayTime); } } } document.getElementById("tfa_4").addEventListener( 'change', function getSelectedValue(){ //Gets the index value of the selected event var x = document.getElementById("tfa_4").selectedIndex - 1; //Finds and sets the event ID var IDToFind = campaignRepaterID[x].value; var dd = document.getElementById('tfa_25'); dd.value = IDToFind; return; } ); }); // Function to add to the campaign dropdown function addToDropdown(text) { var x = document.getElementById("tfa_4");//Dropdown field var option = document.createElement("option"); option.text = text; x.add(option); } </script>
