jQuery: Double Click to Add

/ Published in: jQuery

The snippet below was pulled from code that loads a list of names pulled from Active Directory into a listbox. This code will execute when the user double clicks on a name in the list box (lstResults) and stores it in a variable to be passed to another function (to populate fields on the page).

This code was used on an ASP .NET page which is why you see the syntax "id$=" for finding the DOM objects. This syntax is used to ignore the ClientID value the .NET Framework adds to DOM objects at runtime.

Expand | Embed | Plain Text

Copy this code and paste it in your HTML

$('select[id$=lstResults]').dblclick(function () {
   $('select[id$=lstResults] option:selected').each(function () {
         var sname = $('select[id$=lstResults] option:selected').text();
         var uid = $('select[id$=lstResults] option:selected').val();
         ItemSelected(sname, uid);
   });
});
