Dynamic Drop Down

  1. I have a client who wants to have a drop down field with a list of people. If a user selects one of these people another drop down list below provides a list of elements(20 or so) based on the person chosen. I hope this makes sense. Reading through the dynamic drop down Docs not sure if this is possible.

  2. It's possible but you'd have to use jQuery to do so. You wouldn't do it using hooks/filters, you'd do it based on their selection and then use jQuery to populate the drop down dynamically. I'm not aware of any examples of doing this on the support forums.

  3. Wow! Carl thanks for the really quick response. Using jquery is it possible to do this within the Gravity form?

  4. Yes, you could write custom jQuery that populates fields, etc. and attaches to existing elements. It's all standard HTML/CSS/JS so if you write jQuery it to target and manipulate those fields it should work.
