Select box dependent on another select box option

[Jonathan Joaqui]

Hi,

I have 2 select boxes and I need the 2nd select box dependent on the 1st select box.

Ex: If I choose 1 on the first select box then it should only show A on the second select box as an option

      If I choose 2 on the first select box then it should only show B and C as the options for the second select box (A should not be part of the option).

I need this without creating tables or such.

Is it possible?

Hi,

You can write onChange Client Script on the 1st Select box.

You can use g_form.addOption() and g_form.removeOption() based on the selection in onChange Script

Onchange client script on the First Select box

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
    if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
        return;
    }

    //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
    if (newValue == 'Type1') {                                         // For 1st choice only option 'A' is added
        g_form.addOption('Testbox', 'A', 'a');                    //Fieldname,Nameofthechoice,value
        g_form.removeOption('Testbox', 'B', 'b');
        g_form.removeOption('Testbox', 'C', 'c');
        g_form.removeOption('Testbox', 'D', 'd');
    }
    if (newValue == 'Type2') {                                       //For choice 2  option 'B', 'C' are shown
        g_form.addOption('Testbox','B','b');
        g_form.addOption('Testbox','C','c');
        g_form.removeOption('Testbox','A','a');
        g_form.removeOption('Testbox','D','d');
    }
}
