Not sure I got the heading understandable, but this is what I want to
achieve (actual values only for demonstration, the app is not about cars
:-)):
Given a table:
db.define_table('cars', Field('maker','string'), Field('model', 'string'),
Field('colour','string'))
db.cars.maker.requires=IS_IN_SET(('Volvo','VW','Chrysler'))
db.cars.model.requires=IS_IN_SET(('V50','S60','Passat','Voyager'))
db.cars.colour.requires=IS_IN_SET(('blue','red','pink'))
How can I present a form to the user where the drop downs depend on each
other, i.e. if the user selects a make (Volvo) the next drop down only
shows the relevant models (V50, V60) and selecting a model populates the
colour drop down with the available choices? I've looked at an example from
web2pyslices<http://www.web2pyslices.com/article/show/1410/cascading-drop-down-lists>
but
in my case I want to store all the choices made (maker, model, colour), not
only the final value as in the example (in that case, the area code).
Should I be able to adapt the example for my purposes?
