Thanks - I was more meaning - you can set it for multiple languages - which means you don't need to worry about maintaining multiple content types based on languages. Also - you can add it in FLEXIContent type - Item Form BE tab under JS.
So - you can do this:
So - you can do this:
Code:
/* CHINESE */
if (window.location.href.indexOf("&typeid=23&maincat=61") > -1) {
$(document).ready(function(){
$("select#jform_language").val("zh-TW");
$("select#jform_catid.scat").val("61");
});
}

Updated Code that works better with select2.js:
Via Category
Data Title:
In multi-lingual sites the the top level categories of the site are usually the languages (English & Chinese (中文)):
The top category uses data-title English or Chinese (中文):
So we can set this way:
Via Category
Code:
(function($) {
//VIA URL
$(document).ready(function() {
if (window.location.href.indexOf("&maincat=114") > -1) {
$('#jform_language').val('en-GB'); // Select the option with a value of 'en-GB'
$('#jform_language').trigger('change');
}
});
});
})(jQuery);

So we can set this way:
Code:
(function($) {
//VIA DATA TITLE
$(document).ready(function() {
var data = $("#jform_catid option:selected").attr('data-title');
if (data == 'English') {
$('#jform_language').val('en-GB');
$('#jform_language').trigger('change');
}
if (data == '中文') {
$('#jform_language').val('zh-TW');
$('#jform_language').trigger('change');
}
$('select#jform_catid').on('change', function() {
var data = $("#jform_catid option:selected").attr('data-title');
if (data == 'English') {
$('#jform_language').val('en-GB'); // Select the option with a value of 'en-GB'
$('#jform_language').trigger('change');
}
if (data == '中文') {
$('#jform_language').val('zh-TW'); // Select the option with a value of 'zh-TW'
$('#jform_language').trigger('change');
}
});
});
})(jQuery);
