Create CheckBoxes Group dynamically (Ver. 4.0 RC1.9)

Corvino 01 Jul, 2011
Hi,
i've a CheckBoxes Group in my form.
I've inserted 10 elements using field "options".

What can i do to create dynamically the elements pulling data from an external database.

Example:
I' ve some services in my CRM (extrnal mySQL db) Table, and i would to show these services dynamically in my CMS (Joomla).

I'm able to show data with CUSTOM CODE Action using echo command but i can't bind this data to CheckBoxes Grouip elements.

Thanks

Hi Corvino,

I would use PHP to build the options for the select drop-down in the Custom Element. A simple loop will do it and the element will add the wrapping HTML for you.

Hi,
Ok for the Custom code action but how can i referer to the object? For example:
<checkbox.item>=$row[1];
Thanks

HI Corvino,

I'm sorry, I don't understand the question and the line of code doesn't look like valid PHP ??
