A drop-down that update dynamically?

[Former Community Member]

I have a drop-down list placed in a table's row which has 3 entries (E1,E2,E3) and in the next row an add button that adds a new row.
When I choose an entry (i.e: E1) from the DD and click on the add button, the new DD list should have only two entries (i.e: E2, E3) and so on .
any idea how to implement that dynamically?

Thanks

This can be done. However, what is the user experience after they pick a value from the drop-down, the value is removed from the drop-down and they realize they picked the wrong value?

Hi Steve

My DD has 20 entries and each entry display 5 or 6 checkboxes (name of programs). So when a user selected an entry from the DD list and programs from the checboxes and he /she not allowed to pick the same entry from the DD. So to avoid mistake I would like to have a dynamic DD list that decrease gradually. Let me know if this is clear.

Thanks

You may try this logic path...

After a selection is made you will have the selectedIndex. Use this index to perform a deleteItem from the DD list.

Hi

I used deleteItem but the entry that I chose is back in the list after I made couple add row. What I want when an entry is selected, it should be clear from the DD list during the current session.Is this a way to send a private e-mail with my PDF attachment?

Hi Bill
