Unable to retrieve dynamic data for drop down

    Environment: WP 3.3.2, GF 1.6.4.4.2, LAMP (5.3.5-1ubuntu7.4), MySQL (5.1.54), Theme Twenty Eleven 12.3, Multisite

    We are unable to pull data for the "Parameter Name" after selecting "Allow field to be populated dynamically". We tried the querystring "?name=abc" and "Name=abc", the shortcode, as well as the functions.php hook. We only get the default drop down list.

    Any ideas how we can debug?

    Can you give me more information on what you are trying to do?

    If you have populated dynamically set-up and want to populate a drop down you'll want to use the following hook:

    or

    Nothing happens. Trying populating the drop down dynamically with the 'business' category (i have 3 posts in it ) NO result. Field and Form Id are correct too.
    What should be the parameter name? or there should be none?
