Unable to generate a dynamic list field using the foreign key.It shows up a simple textbox instead of the combo box with the values from the foreign table.

Finally I figured it out...It works great...

Only issue is that it pulls up all the data from the foreign key table.Even with rows mentioned as UnPublished in the foreign key table but it honors with view access level.

Also, Can I pull up only a subset of value from the foreign key table by using a where clause?

Usecase:

For Example all the reusable lists in enterprise application comes from one table and we call it as a lookup table.When querying the data for the specific list, we will add the where clause dynamically to filter the data.

The preparation of the data is processed in the View File.

Directly in the view, you can add a Where statement to the model that is queriing the datas.

For instance :
$myModel->addWhere('a.foo = ' . (int)$myValue );
Coding is now a piece of cake

Awards for the best Joomla app. This product is gonna win an award for this amazing job. Cook Self Service is the the best application from all over the Joomla universe ! It brings Joomla to a professional level really advanced for developers. It is a real fun to develop with it. The ACL part and security checks implementation are just... so much hours saved. I can now concentrate myself more on the design part and the creative works. Thank you so much. Guys I offer you all my congratulation ! Keep up the works because Joomla is needing it to increase the quality of extensions availables on the JED. I also learned a lot because I can see how to code at the proper place and I found all my answers reading the forum.
