[SOLVED] Chaining Double list boxes
Wondering how can we do this..Any javascript suggestion would be appreciated.

1. I have Parent.html and Child.html. There is an advanced Filters button on parent.html file and when user clicks on it, this will launch Child.html form. Passing values back & forth is not an issue.

Issue:
User selects a "reporting group" from drop down and clicks Advanced filtes..This launches child.html file and user selected reporting group is shown on right of double list box. (Used Jquery to manually create option and inserted into right side of double list box). Based on this value, 6 other double list boxes needs to be chained.


Question:
How to trigger Chaining for 6 other double list boxes based on 1st list box selected value?

Any suggestions or pointers would be appreciated..Searched through focal point for IBI onchange event, but can't find.

Thanks

Hi WF_Novice

You can reference the parent control when using parent.opener.IbComposer_getCurrentSelection('controlName');

Look at: http://forums.informationbuild...1057331/m/4887071526

focal point discussion on this issue.


But I am not sure you need to have two htm pages and could hide and show panels to accomplish the same functionality but I do not know your requirements. You can always open a ticket with tech support and we can review your business requirements.

Thanks Barry
