html combobox with javascript

How we can create a Combobox pattern using HTML CSS JS? Solution: See this HTML combo box With JavaScript and CSS, Combobox Types & Patterns.

Previously I have shared some select option programs, this is also like that but it is a combo box. Basically, A combo box is a commonly used graphical user interface widget. Traditionally, it is a combination of a drop-down list or list box and options. This is a kind of dropdown select option, which we generally use.

Today you will learn to create Combobox Types & Patterns using HTML CSS and JavaScript. Basically, there are three types of combo box types of patterns. The first one is a simple dropdown select options list, the second one is editable, and the third one is multi-selectable. The second combobox which is editable, you can remove/add characters after a selected option. And the third one this multi-selectable, you can select multiple options and all the selected options will show above the box.

So, Today I am sharing HTML Combobox With JavaScript and CSS. There I have used HTML and JavaScript to create the program and CSS for styling. Also, the program can detect some keys like arrow up, arrow down, backspace, etc. You can use this program on your website, you can choose any pattern or type and put on your website.

If you are thinking now how these combo boxes actually are, then see the preview given below.

HTML Combobox With JavaScript and CSS Source Code

Before sharing source code, let’s talk about it. First I have created 3 sections for 3 types of the combo boxes. I have created a dedicated span to each box, and created the section using div. There I have used area-* commands and put values, later it will be modified by JavaScript. Also In the HTML file, I have linked other files like CSS and JavaScript.

Now using CSS I have placed all the elements in the right place, as you can see in the preview. With CSS first I gave basic values like size, position, margin, padding, etc to all the elements. Also, I gave color values and other values which elements dynamically created using JS. And did many other things with CSS.

JavaScript handling here the whole functions of the program. There Js detecting key and do actions using if() return{} command.  Detected all actions and movements using .addEventListener command. In the JavaScript file, I have done many things. JS codes are little complicated, if you have good knowledge then you can understand.

Left all other things you will understand after getting the codes, I can’t explain all in writing. For creating this program you have to create 3 files. First file for HTML, second for CSS, and the third file for JavaScript. Follow the steps to creating this without any error.

index.html

Create an HTML file named ‘index.html‘ and put these codes given below.

style.css

Now create a CSS file named ‘style.css‘ and put these codes given here.

function.js

The final step, create a JavaScript file named ‘function.js‘ and put the codes.
