combobox - foreign key 07 Aug 2013 07:38 #10701

Hello,

When I use the preview window, I see a nice combobox for my foreign key.

When I use the sandbox, the combobox is replaced by a textbox.

Here a printscreen.

How can I have a combobox in the sandbox?

Thank you,
Have a nice day!
Sebastien

Hi and welcome to the community.

This is a common question.

The preview function is not finished so it is not true.

You must open the node and choose wich data to see in the combo box.
If you do not do that, Cookie cannot know wich key string to use.

So,
1. simply remove the FK from the form.
2. Open the sondage node
3. Choose the correct subfield and drop it in your form.
Coding is now a piece of cake

This is what you call a component builder. I was able to master using this in a very short time and the resulting component works like a charm. Not just a basic component builder but a fully working component builder with forms fields tables all ready to go. You can make the list and item views to display in the front and back end. Also there is a great forum just starting to evolve and I'm sure this will grow very rapidly when you all realise how good this tool is.
