Hi All,

In a fex file, I am looking for a way to get the index's value of a dynamic combo box that is submitted from a lauch page(created in HTML Composer). The values of the combo box are populated by another sorted fex file. For example, if the user select the second value from the combo box(dropdown), then the index value should be "1".

Thank you,
Pkupp

You could do this with javascript.

Just pass another variable. It would have to be populated either on submit, or on change of the combo box.

In the fex where you create the option list for your combobox, write the index value and the display value as the pairs for each option (instead of using the display value for both). In the Properties for your combobox, make certain you have NOT checked the "Pass display value" box. With this arrangement, when the user selects on option from the combobox, the index value should be passed to the called program.

Thanks for responding Waz and Dan,

I used javascript to get it: document.getElementById("combobox1").selectedIndex

Thanks again.
