Drop-down lists

[Former Community Member]

My situation, I have 2 dropdown lists on a form. Let's say dropdown #1 contains 4 options. I want dropdown #2 to give me a specific set of items to choose from depending on my choice in dropdown #1.

Any help is much appreciated.

Hi,

There is javascript for drop down lists .clearItems(); and .addItem("a choice");

The sample shows an example of this in the change event of the dropDown1.

Hope that helps,

That does help, now if I want to make the choice from dropdown 2 to effect the options in dropdown 3, I assume that this will work the same way?

Thanks.

Yes, exactly the same process. Copy the script from 1 into 2 and amend the references (or duplicate the first drop down and amend the references).

You may want to add in an extra line of javascript in the first drop down object, which would also clear any previously selected choice in dropdown3. 

Good luck,
