Thanks Hans This was helpful, I appreciate your response. However, it loads values when the tool gets reloaded (either by Galaxy restarting or from admin interface).
Just to clarify, it loads the data on the fly every time the tool gets called. There is no need to restart Galaxy or reload the tool via the admin interface.
It does work. We are using this quick and dirty trick for several of our self-written tools.

My tool could load different values, in the dropdown, every time it is get called based on the logged in user or if the database table has changed...! Any thought on this; any point to code example or reference to existing tool will be very helpful.

Tool's dropdown boxes will load values from the database on the fly. I had a look at tool configuration at Galaxy WiKi and I can't seems to track the right configuration. What's the best way to approach that? Other solution I was thinking to open a new web app in galaxy_main iframe, however, that seems to involve creating new controller. My aim is achieve this by minimal modification to core code. Reference to any existing similar tool will certainly help. Any other guidance will be appreciated (keep in mind I am a newbie). Thanks.
