Question Javascript & CF

What I'd like to do is the user be able to select particular employees hit a button and then it would perform an sql (insert/update) on the db depending on what was already preselected and what is now selected.

I just need your help with trying to figure out how to run a sql query on the selected options…if you have time to just swive through it, that'd be great.

<SCRIPT>

function getSelectedValues (select) {

var r = new Array();

for (var i = 0; i < select.options.length; i++)

if (select.options[i].selected) {

r[r.length] = select.options[i].value;

//alert(select.options[i].value);

}

return r;

}

</SCRIPT>





<!--- store the selected Main_Group variable variable after the first select boxes submits itself --->

<cfif isDefined('form.select_Roles')>

<cfset page.select_Roles = form.select_Roles>

</cfif>



<cfoutput>

<form method="post" action="roles_select.cfm">

<!--- query DB for the first drop down list --->

<cfquery name="get_Roles" datasource="skillmatrix">

SELECT distinct users.title

FROM users, ind_record

WHERE ind_record.manager = '#trim(session.skillmatrixlastname)#, #trim(session.skillmatrixfirstname)#'

</cfquery>



<!--- first drop down list --->

<!--- NOTICE the onChange javascript event in the select tag, this is what submits the form after the first selection --->

<select name="select_Roles" required="yes" onchange="this.form.submit()">

<option>Select Main Group</option>

<!--- dynamically populate the first drop down list based on the get_Roles query --->

<!--- NOTICE the CFIF within the option tag, this says, if the first selection has been made, display the chosen option when the page reloads --->

<cfloop query="get_Roles">

<option value="#title#" <cfif isDefined('form.select_Roles')><cfif form.select_Roles eq "#title#">selected</cfif></cfif>>#title#</option>

</cfloop>

</select>

<p>

<!--- if the first selection has been made, display the second drop down list with the appropriate results --->

<cfif isDefined('page.select_Roles')>

<!--- query DB for second drop down list, based on the selected item from the first list --->

<cfquery name="get_Employees" datasource="skillmatrix">

SELECT users.employee_id, users.title, users.last_name, users.first_name FROM users, ind_record

WHERE ind_record.manager = '#trim(session.skillmatrixlastname)#, #trim(session.skillmatrixfirstname)#'

AND users.employee_id = ind_record.employee_id

</cfquery>

#get_Employees.recordcount#

<!--- second drop down list --->

<select MULTIPLE size="10" name="select_Employee_Roles" required="yes">

<option>#form.select_Roles#(s) are highlighted</option>

<!--- dynamically populate the second drop down list based on the get_Employees query --->

<cfloop query="get_Employees">

<option value="#employee_id#" <cfif isDefined('form.select_Roles')><cfif form.select_Roles eq "#title#">selected</cfif></cfif>>#last_name#, #first_name#, #title#</option>

</cfloop>

</select>



<INPUT TYPE="button" VALUE="show selected values"

ONCLICK="this.form.output.value = getSelectedValues(this.form.select_Employee_Roles) ;">

<!--<INPUT TYPE="button" VALUE="show selected values"

ONCLICK="this.form.output.value = getSelectedValues(this.form.select_Employee_Roles) ;">

-->

<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="output" SIZE="80">

<input type="button" name="Submit" value="Submit">



</cfif>



</form>

</cfoutput>

<CFIF IsDefined("FORM.output")>

<CFoutpUT>

<cfquery name="get_new" datasource="skillmatrix">

SELECT *

FROM users

WHERE employee_id = '#form.output#'

</cfquery>

</CFOUTPUT>



<CFOutPUT>#get_new.title#</CFOutPUT>

</CFIF>
