Hi there,

I have a question. I'm using Chronoform v6. I can't seem to figure out how to create my form so that:
- You have dropdown box with a list of 5 values.
- If you select value 3, an extra box (or more) appear. some additional info let's say

is this possible, and if so, how? :-))

Kind regards
JMN

Hi JMN,

You can use the Events tab in the CheckBox Group element to show/hide other form elements.

Hi Bob,

Thanks for the tip. It is really helpful. Another additional question. Is this event charged on the spot,
I mean, when i check one, does it immediately response?

I've added a CheckBox group and I have y=Yes and n=No as checkbox values.
Then, I've added an Event "on selecting value 'y' actions 'hide' element identifier 'select16'
select16 is the id of a dropdown field.

Is this correct?

Thanks for feedback,
kind regards

Hi noeljm,

Yes the change will be immediate.

To use an element ID as an identifier please prefix it with # - #select16

Guess I'm missing something.
The Event is in the checkbox group itself, right? On tab "Designer - Sections".
No need to add something in the general Events?

Is the identifier with spaces ? #(space)-(space)#select16

Thanks!

Hi noeljm,

In most cases the field name will work, so select16 will work as an identifier, but in some cases (not with fields but with areas and other elements), you need to use the id selector: #select16

Best regards,

Ow Okay, now I understand. Thanks!
Works like a charm.
