How to simulate click on vk.com dropdown list using javascript?

Question

JavaScript

There are drop-down lists in the VKontakte settings:



The list of options is initially empty, it is loaded when you click on the drop-down list, i.e. the options menu opens with the options you just loaded. The list itself is not the usual select, but a group of html elements. With $("...").click() on the outer element, nothing is loaded, and the context menu does not drop out. How can I load a list of options?

Answer 1

Are you sure you need it? Maybe this piece of html code will lead you to something?

<input type="hidden" name="pedit_status" id="pedit_status" value="X" class="resultField">

Answer 2

You can load using ajax, but there is a ready-made solution, but you need to connect Query UI and use the autocomplete () method; . And a couple more useful links, a video lesson from the developers themselves here .
