 I'm assuming it hasn't been upgraded to run on 5.4 yet? :-(
Nope, it's on my todo list (which has been growing since the arrival of a
new baby). There's  20 lines of javascript so I'm sure you can make it
jquery / requireJS friendly in no time ;)

 You have some nice components too.
Thanks

Awesome, congrats on the new addition to the family. Yes I'll take a look
at it over the weekend, if I'm able to get to it, I'll send you back the
code.

Use my onevent mixin
http://tapestry-stitch.uklance.cloudbees.net/oneventdemo

You can send as many clientside field values as you want in the serverside
event. See the group of fields demo for an example.

Thanks lance, I won't get a chance to try it until tonight, but does it

Yeah, it uses prototype's getValue() which works for all field types.

There's a name clash to watch out for. Both select and onevent accept a
zone parameter. From memory there's an option to qualify parameter names
with the mixin name.

How to return multiple values with ajax select

2014-03-05 Thread George Christman
Hi guys, I have the following scenario,


Five drop down menus chained together

Category, Year, Make, Model, Trim

Each select menu is an ajax select menu designed to narrow down the result
set. I'm looking for ideas or a solution that would enable me to narrow
down the result set beyond one menu. Currently I'm able to set a class
property with the previous select menu and read the property from with the
following select menu, however I lose the first one with the select. Does
anybody know how to do this without the use of @Persist?

I was almost thinking of something like an actionlink where you can have
multiple context values, but instead concatenated in the select option
value, but that seems very inefficient. The other thought I had was to set
the previous values in a hidden field. Does anybody have any suggestions?
