Help with drop down lists..

[rjc79]

I am currently trying designing a new order form for my company.  I am using drop down lists with entries 1 - 10 to allow the user to enter quantities of the products that they wish to order.  Each product costs the same.  Is there a way i can generate a total cost, displayed at the bottom of the form after the form has been filled by the user based on the drop down list selections?

Thanks for any help

Hi Ryan,

This is very possible.

There are several good examples that come with LC Designer. When you click new, select "based on a template". Have a look at the purchase order template.

In your dropdowns go to the Object / Binding tab and select "specify values", check that these match your dropdowns, 1, 2, 3,... etc. Then you can refer to the dropdowns in your calculations. In javascript:

subtotal.rawValue = price.rawValue * quantity.rawValue // the dropdown is named quantity

Good luck,

Niall
