ok this is kinda like a 2 select related, but not really.. i want to show a 2nd selecty box only if the first select box is value 6 This works great on change when you are in the form.
but if i am updating the form. it doesn't see the default value.. which is in a var called StrType prt_type is the first select prt_prog_1 is the div id surrounding 2nd select <script> $(function(){ $("#prt_type").change(function () { var val = $(this).val(); switch(parseInt(val)){ case 6: $("#prt_prog_1").show(); break; case 1: case 2: case 3: case 4: case 5: case 7: case 8: case '': $("#prt_prog_1").hide(); break; } }); }); </script> i tried just doing a <cfif StrType EQ 6 > to surround the stuff that does work.. but i cant then ge t the change of states... <!--- <cfif StrType EQ 6> ---> <div id="prt_prog_1"> <select name="prt_prog" id="prt_prog"> <option value="0">Select</option> <option value="1" <cfif StrProg EQ 1> selected</cfif>>Elite</option> <option value="2" <cfif StrProg EQ 2> selected</cfif>>Preferred</option> <option value="3" <cfif StrProg EQ 3> selected</cfif>>Authorized</option> </select> </div> <!--- </cfif> ---> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
