Hi... Before I got problem in choosing employee name list using onkeyup ...up and down key..and now with the help of toher programmer i solved it but I notice that it was affected in my textbox.. Everytime I type in textbox for search like for example i type a then after i press a the focus was go to the first employee name.. and I think the reason why it happened is the new script. here is my new code: Code: <script> window.onload = function() { var ul = document.getElementById('searchpayroll'); var links = ul.getElementsByTagName('a'); var i = 0; document.onkeyup = function(e){ //function(e){ e = window.event || e; var key = e.charCode || e.keyCode; //if (key == 38) { if (key == 40) { // up pressed if (i < links.length - 1) i++; } else if (key == 38) { // down pressed if (i > 0) i--; } // focus on link links[i].focus(); // request content in here for link with ajax // alert(links[i].href); } } </script> <div id="Search"> <form> <p class="serif"><b>Search Lastname:</b></p> <input type="text" name="search_" size="20" onkeyup="searchemppay(this.value);"> <!--<div id="searchpayroll" style="overflow:auto; height:390px; width:auto; margin-left:2px" >--> <hr /> <ul id="searchpayroll" style="overflow:auto; height:385px; width:auto; margin-left:2px;"> <!--<ul>--> {section name=co_emp loop=$personalAll} <!--<li onclick="changeEmployeePay('{$personalAll[co_emp].EMP_ID}')">{$personalAll[co_emp].FULLNAME}</li> --> <li><a href="SearchData.php?queryEmpID={$personalAll[co_emp].EMP_ID}">{$personalAll[co_emp].FULLNAME}</a></li> <hr /> {sectionelse} <li>No records found</li> {/section} </ul> </div> and here is my javascript code for search; Code: <script> function searchemppay(queryString) { var ajaxRequest = remoteRequestObject(); ajaxRequest.onreadystatechange = function() { if (ajaxRequest.readyState == 4 && ajaxRequest.status == 200) { var result = ajaxRequest.responseText; document.getElementById('searchpayroll').innerHTML = result; } } var url = "search.php?query=" + queryString; ajaxRequest.open("GET", url, true); ajaxRequest.setRequestHeader("If-Modified-Since", "Sat, 1 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT"); ajaxRequest.send(null); } function changeEmployeePay(queryID) { window.location = "SearchData.php?queryEmpID=" + queryID; } </script> and the search.php Code: <?php session_start(); include 'config.php'; $queryString = $_GET["query"]; if ($queryString == "" || $queryString == null) { $sql = "SELECT EMP_ID, CONCAT(LNAME, ', ', FNAME, ' ', MI, '.') AS FULLNAME FROM PERSONAL ORDER BY FULLNAME ASC"; } else { $sql = "SELECT EMP_ID, CONCAT(LNAME, ', ', FNAME, ' ', MI, '.') AS FULLNAME FROM PERSONAL WHERE LNAME LIKE '" . $queryString . "%' ORDER BY FULLNAME ASC"; } $recPersonalQuery = $conn->Execute($sql); if (!$recPersonalQuery->BOF) { $recPersonalQuery->MoveFirst(); } echo "<hr />"; echo "<ul id='searchpayroll'>"; while (!$recPersonalQuery->EOF) { $empID = $recPersonalQuery->fields["EMP_ID"]; $empFullName = $recPersonalQuery->fields["FULLNAME"]; echo "<a href='SearchData.php?queryEmpID=$empID'; style= 'font-family:'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size:10%;'>$empFullName</li>"; echo "<hr />"; $recPersonalQuery->MoveNext(); } echo "</ul>"; $recPersonalQuery->Close(); exit(); and SearchData.php Code: <?php session_start(); $queryStr = trim($_GET["queryEmpID"]); $_SESSION['empID'] = $queryStr; session_write_close(); header("Location:DisplayEmpPayroll.php"); exit(); ?> Thank you so much
