"Add More" input to dropdown list

Avatar

Level 2

Hello,

I was having some difficulty trying to customize this dropdown list to a format very similar to one of the dropdown options on ebay.

The cell is blank and has a drop down. Once you click the drop down, you will find the following

relaxed

straight leg

__________

other

When you click "other," the field box now contains the  text that reads " Enter a Specific Value." and you are able to add in whatever text you want in the field

That would be great if there was a way in LiveCycle to do something close to or exactly like this.

thanks

1) allow custom text entry

2) add exit event

// form1.page1.dd::exit - (JavaScript, client)


if (this.rawValue == "Other") {

  this.rawValue = "Enter a specific value";

}

3) add entry event
// form1.page1.dd::enter - (JavaScript, client)

if (this.rawValue == "Enter a specific value") {
  this.rawValue = "";
}
