Hello
I have a dropdown list that gives choices
example:
printers=printers
routers=Routers
Keyboards=Keyboards
trackpads=Trackpads
I have checkboxes as follows:
- Printers : details and image
- Routers: Details and image
- Keyboards: Details and image
- Trackpads: Details and image.
The check boxes are hidden and in the dropdown when I choose “ Routers” the check box of Routers should show and when I choose something else the other check box should show and the Routers should be hidden.
I have been able to hide the check boxes but I cannot make it work or show on choice. I am on CF8. Remaking my forms from CF6. It is hard work but no other alternative.
Can I get some help?
Thanks
Ronn
Hi Ronn
You need to use the Event Triggers and Event Listeners, your dropdown will fire a trigger and your fields will listen for this trigger
A checkboxes group can not show/hide single options, you will need to have multiple checkboxes with the same name and add a listener for each one of them and show/hide each one based on the triggers
You can set the dropdown to fire 2 triggers: hide_all on change, and show_printer...etc for each option
For all checkboxes they should listen to hide_all and hide
Then each one will listen to the specific trigger and show itself
I hope I made it clear but let me know if you still need help
