Hi Eric, I'm making a start on that idea of cascading the selection from one *<<combobox>>* into the filter for the options of another. However, in the second example on this experiment tiddler <https://tiddlytest.github.io/#Playing%20with%20Eric%27s%20combobox%20and%20the%20%22okaction%22%20param>, I'm stuck with a bit of a problem. Despite having specified field:"city" as the field from which the *option value* should be stored, it still seems to be storing the title of the selected option, rather than the city. The *option labels* are being populated properly, using your example above of template:"{{!!city}}", but the *option values* aren't respecting the field: parameter.
Thanks in advance, Hegart.
