Hi!
I have some problems with the function "Drop-down list". I made a table with 2 values. In the website view the dropdown list is empty. Please take a look at my picture. How to set the first value of the list as default.
regards

Hi,
You can use magic hooks and select the default value you want.
Magic Hooks is a javascript file with name same as tablename-dv.js
You select default value, you can use the following code
Newer versions of AppGini (5.20 and above)
where e8 is the ID of the container of the drop down (for AppGini apps, the ID is fieldname-container, where fieldname is the name of the drop-down field), "CA" is the new value. So, the code should be:
Code: Select all
jQuery("#fieldname-container").select2("val", "new-value");

You are welcome
Please go through this
http://bigprof.com/appgini/help/advance ... agic-files
And coming to
Code: Select all
jQuery("#fieldname-container").select2("val", "new-value");
You need to page and go to inspect element for the dropdown and you find id="XXXX-container"
so you will replace fieldname-continer with xxxx-container
and new-value with "FEM"

for example I made a new database with 2 tables
1 textfield
1 dropdown
Tablename: table1
Name of the dropdown: field3
2 Values: Peter;;Mary
Name of the conatiner (HTML view):
<div class="panel-body" id="table1_dv_container">
Code: Select all
<div class="row">
<!-- form inputs -->
<div class="col-md-8 col-lg-10" id="table1_dv_form">
<fieldset class="form-horizontal">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="field2" class="control-label col-lg-3">Field 2</label>
<div class="col-lg-9">
<input tabindex="1" maxlength="40" type="text" class="form-control" name="field2" id="field2" value="" required>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="field3" class="control-label col-lg-3">field3</label>
<div class="col-lg-9">
<select tabindex="1" style="width: 100%;" name="field3" id="field3">
<option value=""> </option>
<option value="Peter" >Peter</option>
<option value="Mary" >Mary</option></select><script>jQuery(function(){ jQuery("#field3").select2({ minimumResultsForSearch: 15 }); })</script>
</div>
</div>
</fieldset>
</div>
now I made a file: table1-dv.js
Code: Select all
$("#table1_dv_container").select2("val", "Peter");
jQuery("#table1_dv_container").select2("val", "Peter");
I uploaded this file to: /hooks

Wolkenlos,
its much easier:
- fill the first value of the possible values into 'Default': FEM
and generate. That's all.
