Reload problem with two selects (dynamic dropdowns)

Creon 07 Mar, 2025

Hi there,

I have the following problem: I have a form that has two selects. One shows a list of courses a user can attend to and select one of them. The other contains the dates when the courses take place. The data for the courses and the dates comes from a database table. I managed to set up a script that retrieves the courses from the database.

What I fail to understand is how to make the select with the dates change or reload according to the value set when the user changes the courses - select. How can I do that?

Thanks in advance for your time and 

best regards

Marc

I'm sorry to say, but your documentation on Chronoforms 8 is so poor and rudimentary, that it takes a huge amount of time just to figure out how exactly it is meant to work. It's a lot faster for me to write a working form myself from scratch than trying to figure out how exactly Chronoforms is supposed to work in case of dynamic use.

Hi Creon

Sorry to hear that the documentation available was not sufficient for you, please tell me which points were not clear enough when you read the article I posted ?

And did you read the main How Chronoforms8 works tutorial here ?
