Re: Select or text field depending on another select
Changing the contents of controls and activating/deactivating is appropriate, but alternating between select and text input depending on the value of another select? That's a very good way of confusing and frustrating users. My gut instinct is that a wizard style interface, where you get routed to different screens depending on the value provided on the first screen would be far less confusing and frustrating for users.

Re: Select or text field depending on another select
What I do is show/hide divs containing the form elements using javascript (as dardo said above, look at jquery if you're not familiar with js frameworks). Then you can keep all of the form elements in the single view without having to load via ajax, etc. You may need to do some checks in the model to save only required data (as all form fields may be submitted, depending on the browser). Hope that helps. Adam On Jun 7, 6:02 pm, dandreta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I am doing searchs in my cake application. I have a select with > options and a text field.

Really? Seems pretty standard to me to have a self-changing form. E.g. you select a country in one select box and then the next box changes to hold that country's regions or cities. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.

Re: Select or text field depending on another select
Be careful with this. While it is programatically possible, it is very poor user interface design and will, in all likelihood, frustrate your users to no end. You might want to seriously reconsider how you implement your interface. dandreta wrote: > Hi, > > I am doing searchs in my cake application. I have a select with > options and a text field.

Re: Select or text field depending on another select
dandreta, search for "ajax observe field" on this group that you will find a answer. ok... On Jun 7, 5:02 am, dandreta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I am doing searchs in my cake application.

Select or text field depending on another select
Hi, I am doing searchs in my cake application. I have a select with options and a text field. I want that if in this select is chosen option 1 or option 2, the text field is kept to introduce the text to search, but if the selected option is 3, I want that the text field is replaced by another new select with 2 options. Has anyone made something similar? How can I do that? Thanks and regards. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
