Today while writing a new Mootools class an error occurred. Not a new one, I’ve had this one before.
But how could this happen? Everything worked fine in Firefox en Firebug was very happy with my programming. No errors found.
Yesterday I’ve published the first version of the cvLinkSelect class for Mootools 1.2. Today I’ve released the new version of this nifty little class. I’ve completed the class with several finishing touches!
Changes
- Multiple GET variables in the request url.
- After a page refresh the script checks if the first linked selectbox option is not empty. If it isn’t empty the first request fires.
- If the request is empty it’s the last item in the linked selectboxes range. In this case we have to fire the isLast function.
Read more about the usage on the original post for the cvLinkSelect class!
Enjoy!
If you’re making a form with today’s standards you often have to make several select elements with the options of the next select elements referring to the previous one. It’s a simple task to create a small Mootool which do it for you but it’s always a time consuming process, especially if you’ll have a lot of select boxes. I thought that if I have use this functionality more than once a class would be helpful.
This class links the select boxes to each other. When you change the first select element the options for the following select boxes are loaded. Simple as that.
