Dynamic DDL in repeatable area is empty

Avatar

Level 2

I have a drop-down list (in a repeatable area) that is populated dynamically with script.  This is fine for the first instance but any additional instances appear empty.  I am using a repeater grid in the form guide.

Can anyone please advise how to get all instances (existing and new) to populate.

Thank you.

Hi,

If the dropdowns are populated based on a value of another object in the form, rather than having the script in that object pushing the list items FORWARD to the dropdown, you could have the script in the preOpen event of the dropdown LOOKING BACK at the value in the object.

If you want to stick with your script, then you would need to put it in a loop to go through all of the repeating instances to populate each of the dropdowns in turn.

Otherwise I would need some more info to work on.

Hi Niall,

Thank you for your help.  Unfortunately (maybe even fortunately) this has been descoped from the project I'm working on at the moment.  I do intend to return to it at some stage and I'll try your suggestion.
