Hi , You can use Zend_Dojo_Form elements to do what you want. Here's code which accomplishes exactly what you're wanting to do (but in one of my projects, of course):
http://pastebin.com/m5765a1ca storeId can be any unique name you want The url under storeParams should be a URL which returns a dojo data payload (json with a dojo-specific structure). use Zend_Dojo_Data to transform your data into a dojo data payload. searchAttr is the field you want to filter and display on. Note that for FilteringSelect boxes, the DISPLAYED value is what will be posted.
