Hi

When trying to get a second select box to restrict based on the values of a first check box (having the applyProperty of "select box" in the onchange of the first to the second) I was unable to get the below entry in the choices parameter working:
After much hair pulling I came across http://www.profoundlogic.com/forum/view ... eter#p4859. This works - so was I trying to do it wrong originally or is there a feature?

I'm not completely sure that I understand the question.

Are you saying that you originally were setting the 'choices' property of a select box like this: And this didn't work, but then you changed it to work like this and it worked: Did I get that right? I'm not sure if I'm understanding that part.

And your question is "why does the first method fail, and the second method succeed?" -- is that what you're asking?

Or, is this a database-driven select box (instead of using 'choices' as I mention, above.)

Hi Scott

Sorry - I knew I'd made it a convoluted explanation.

Within the Database-Driven Selection section for the 2nd select box I had the choices selection criteria set to COMPANY='02' and LEVEL=? and I had the choices parameter value set to script: get("selectbox1");

On the first select box I had the onchange set to applyProperty("selectbox2", "field type", "select box");

The onchange triggered the second select box reload. The choices parameter value on selectbox 2 just didn't seem to pick up the value.

Does that make more sense?
