Hi,
Does anyone know of a good combobox that runs from a text file and not 'hard coded' in Wysiwyg.
Thanks
Peter

There is no standard solution for this, this will require a custom script.
For example (not tested, provided "AS IS"):
Code: Select all
var myArray;
var coords;
var showList;
$.ajax({
url: './contacts125.csv',
success: function(data)
{
var splitData=data.split("\n");
for (var i = 0; i < splitData.length; i++)
{
let str = splitData;
myArray = str.split(",");
showList = myArray[0] + ',' + myArray[2];
$('#Combobox1').append("<option value=\"" + showList + "\">" + showList + "</option>");
}
}
});

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
I am not up on java, are you able to give me the code at the beginning and end to make this code complete so I can just insert into my page.
I really appreciate your help.
Peter

Sorry, I cannot help you with custom code. For me, it may also take a lot of time to implement a complete working solution.
I have provided the code to point you in the right direction.
