I have been creating my basic framework for my first application in j-cook, and now I have to do some of finetuning of the coding. I have been looking through the forum but I could not find an answer to the following questions:
1.I would like to fill in some fields in a form on the front end, when they create a new record. I thought I could fool the system by inserting the value into the $data part of the models\xxxx.php loadFormData() ( // Prime some default values), but that does not seem to work, I have been trying to figure it out all afternoon, but no luck. and I guess I have to be in this file because on the return I can set the value as I wish in the function prepareTable. But I would rally like to have the value displayed on the NEW form for the enduser, can anybody give me a hint on where I have to work on this.
2. This one is more a question to put me on the right track, I have 2 foreign keys in a table, I would like to change the values of the drop down menus on the input from another field: example: I have choose the country code in a dropdown list and than II would like the second drop down list to have only the names of the states of the country chosen in the first dropdown.
