Hi!
Can anyone please explain to me how i can dynamically populate the dropdowns in activeselect with the properties (cck fields) from a custom contenttype?
Example:
A room has several layouts, of which the user can choose, based on his needs
So i would like the first select to be the different rooms, the next one all the layouts for a chosen room.
Is this possible to do, and so how?
I'm using cck taxonomy, but i'm not sure if i did it correctly...
I've made a vocabulary for rooms, with layout as term...
Can anyone give me some pointers for this one?
Thx in advance!
#1
Create a vocabulary called layouts as follows:
Room1
-- Layout 1
-- Layout 2
-- Layout 3
-- Layout 4
Room2
-- Layout 1
-- Layout 2
-- Layout 3
etc
I used it on a profile content type, to select the place the user lives in. First level is country, second level is Province and third level is Place. Works great!
Cheers. Baris

I found this http://drupal.org/project/hierarchical_select and it autopopulates a select list with child terms based on the first select taxonomy term.
