javascript - Use list instead of option for dropdown select -


i need able change style of page based on dropdown list. have dropdown form option list, , using js selecting css on page. needs apply separate stylesheet (style1.css, style2.css, etc) on click/change of dropdown based on dropdown list item, instead of option select.

html

option select

<div class="et-select-wrapper">   <div class="et-select-wrapper" style="margin:0">      <select id="styleswitcher">             <option value="default">default</option>             <option value="option2">option2</option>         </select>   </div> </div> 

list items - needs work list item (below) instead of above option

list items

<button class="et-icon-down-arrow" data-toggle="dropdown"><span class="caret">  </span> page style</button> <ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu" id="styleswitcher">   <li><a href="#" value="default">default</a></li>   <li><a href="#" value="wcag">wcag</a></li> </ul> 

javascript

    window.onload = function() {   function addevent(obj, type, fn) {     if (obj.attachevent) {       obj['e' + type + fn] = fn;       obj[type + fn] = function() {         obj['e' + type + fn](window.event);       }       obj.attachevent('on' + type, obj[type + fn]);     } else obj.addeventlistener(type, fn, false);   }    function switchstyles() {     var selectedoption = this.options[this.selectedindex],       classname = selectedoption.value;     document.body.classname = classname;   }   var styleswitcher = document.getelementbyid("styleswitcher");   addevent(styleswitcher, "change", switchstyles); } 

===========================================================================

solution

i found solution needed here: http://test.unintentionallyblank.co.uk/switcher.html

by applying function setstylesheet li item in dropdown so:

<a data-toggle="dropdown"><button class="et-icon-eye"> style selector</button> <ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">   <li><a href="javascript:setstylesheet('arial')">arial</a></li>   <li><a href="javascript:setstylesheet('open-sans')">open sans</a></li> </ul> 

and using javascript here: http://test.unintentionallyblank.co.uk/switcherpart1.js

which selects list of external stylesheets on page, i'm able change pages style on select li list.

your style switcher (ul) doesn't have "change" event, doesn't change when click things - it's list, not form control. it's static element on page, text or something. bind switchstyle() on "click" event of li-s, instead.

also, consider jquery. saves lot of work around events:

$("li").on("click",switchstyles); 

update

i've created minimal demo of how can react on li clicks:

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script> <html> <body>      <ul>         <li><a href="#" data-value="1"> style 1 </a></li>         <li><a href="#" data-value="2"> style 2 </a></li>         <li><a href="#" data-value="3"> style 3 </a></li>         <li><a href="#" data-value="4"> style 4 </a></li>         <li><a href="#" data-value="5"> style 5 </a></li>     </ul>     <div class="colorme">         <br><br><br>     </div>      <script>          function styleswitcher(x) {             var colors = ["blue","green","red","purple","orange"];             $(".colorme").css("background-color",colors[--x]);         }           $("li > a").on("click",function() {              var n = $(this).data("value");             styleswitcher(n);          });      </script>  </body> </html> 

(also fiddle this)
can apply own method of switching styles.

update ii

here's version changing stylesheets:

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script> <html> <link id="customstyle" rel="stylesheet" href="theme.peace.css"> <body>      <ul>         <li><a href="#" data-value="ocean"> ocean blue theme </a></li>         <li><a href="#" data-value="darko"> dark theme </a></li>         <li><a href="#" data-value="flame"> flaming red theme </a></li>         <li><a href="#" data-value="peace"> peaceful nature theme </a></li>         <li><a href="#" data-value="steam"> steampunk theme </a></li>     </ul>     <div class="colorme">         <br><br><br>     </div>      <script>          function styleswitcher(t) {             var cssname = "theme."+t+".css";             document.getelementbyid("customstyle").setattribute("href",cssname);           }           $("li > a").on("click",function() {              var theme = $(this).data("value");             styleswitcher(theme);          });      </script>  </body> </html> 

make sure have named css files (like theme.ocean.css) in proper directory - or update name composition part if have them somewhere else.
