hi, can you have the second form values before first value is chosen? you could grab second menu values into a different arrays. if first selection is made then onselect="somefunction()" would put the right values in a second menu. somefunction can be in a separate file and that's pure javascript that would fill the select menu. theory atleast... Vahur ps. not sure if onselect really exist :)
All:
Here's my design problem - I have a form with two drop down menus. The values of the second drop down depend on what the user selected in the first. The values of both fields are dynamic - pulled from a database when the form is published.
I am trying to figure out how to enable this using Page Templates. My thoughts are: 1) use tal:replace to generate the script element and its contents - this doesn't seem to work with Zope ignoring everything within the script tags.
2) use a python script and tal:replace to generate the script element. This isn't working either - my suspicion is that the page never processes the created script element.
3) call the database directly with javascript. I have no idea how to do this or if it can be done and I really don't want to do it this way.
4) ??
What simple clue am I missing? T
