I have some multiselect and i use jquery select2.I want to disable one option in other multiselect when this option is selected in one multiselect. i write this code,but it does work.
$("select.multiselect").on("change", function(e) {
if(e.added){
for(var i=0;i<this.options.length;i++){
var vals = $(this).select2("val");
for(var j=0;j<vals.length;j++){
if(this.options[i].value===vals[j]){
this.options[i].selected=true;
}
}
};
}
if(e.removed){
for(var i=0;i<this.options.length;i++){
if(this.options[i].value===e.removed.id){
this.options[i].selected=false;
}
};
}
});
how to do it?
It was more complicated then I thought but here is what I came up with:
$('select.multiselect').on('change', function(e) {
// the selected values
var vals = $(this).select2("val");
// selects contains all the OTHER select forms
var selects = $('select').not('#'+$(this).attr('id'));
// loop trough all the selects
for (var i = 0; i < selects.length; i++) {
//re-enable all options before
$(selects[i]).find('option').removeAttr('disabled');
// loop trough all the values
for (var j = 0; j < vals.length; j++) {
// disabled attribute
$(selects[i]).find('option[value='+vals[j]+']').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
}
}
});
Here's a fiddle if you want to see the result in action
Make sure all your select
elements have a unique id
