You can even set them as required so the form will fail validation will fail until they make a selection and/or enter something in the 'other' text field. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/multi-tiered-select-menu-with-other-option-possible#post-52999 Tue, 20 Mar 2012 18:30:56 +0000 samhastings 52999@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I've heard great things about Gravity Forms and I know my client will love it. Before purchasing I need to check something's possible though.</p> <p>If you'd be so kind as to look at this form: <a href="http://www.appealshading.com/contact/brochure-request/" rel="nofollow">http://www.appealshading.com/contact/brochure-request/</a> (currently a custom form which I want to port to GF).</p> <p>Near the bottom there's a "How did you hear about us" dropdown. Choosing an item from this menu causes a secondary menu to appear with the child options within. If the user selects "Other" in the child form, it causes a textbox to appear underneath to specify the referrer.</p> <p>Is this all possible using Gravity Forms? I can code so if a bit of custom hacking is necessary (maybe with some guidance from those who know the API) I'm not too bothered.</p> <p>My main concern is the validation of the menu, e.g. making sure a selection is made in both menus, and making sure the "Other" box is filled in when applicable.</p> <p>Any answers would be much appreciated. If the answer is "yes" then you can have my money :-)</p> <p>Sam </p>
