Dropdown options from previous dropdown selection 13 years 10 months ago #13682

Hi

I have created a form here: www.revolutionit.com.au/support-tickets/

And would like to be able to make a selection from: PRODUCT drop down... but then make the drop down for Version only offer the options for the selection from previous drop down.

Eg... RevExpress only has V 2.2, 2.2.1 and 2.3 ..... so if RevExpress is selected from first (product) drop down box, then only these three options show in the Version drop down.

Similarly the other products in the products drop down have specific versions, so once selected only the versions which relate to that product are shown in the version drop down.

Does anyone know how to configure this? All help is greatly appreciated.

cheers
James

Hello,

From what I can see you are referring to a dynamic dropdown functionality. A simple example on this topic can be found on our demo server:

demo.rsjoomla.com/dynamic-drop-down-change-form-example

You can also download this example, restore it in your Joomla! installation and edit it according to your needs.

The example instructions aren't quite complete (you need to add the car manufacturers in the first drop-down as items).

However - installing the sample form will show you where and how it all works :)

Now - all I want to do is to try this with 3 drop-downs consecutively - each populated by dynamic queries from an external database!
