Hi

I have two dropdown controls in my NewForm, my requirement is:-

Based on the item selected in the first dropdown the second dropdown should
populate values.

Can any one please tell me how to do using sharepoint designer.

Why not create these forms using Visual Studio and deploy as a feature -
enabling you to write much more code (C# code behind) in order to acheive
this functionality, and making them re-usable cross multiple sites and
lists.

Thanks for your information.

But is it possible to achieve the dynamic value selection in the dropdown
using sharepoint designer or any other way.

Hi Sanker

Yes, it's possible but if you don't want to write any server side code, then it's going to require a fair amount of
Javascript, so Tobias' suggestion may be a lot easier (That's the server side developer in me talking).

But if you're comfortable with javascript and want to go with the SPD only approach then this blog might give you a
starting point:

As SharePoint pages are parsed through safe mode, you will need to create
your server side code through either a user control (.ascx) or custom web
control (inherited from System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebControl). You will have
registered either control as a safe control in the webconfig. Once you have
created and registered the control then you can delcare it in the sharepoint
aspx page you wish to modify.

Hi Sanker

I've made a simple example which you can see at:

This is of course only a starting point but it should give you an idea on how this can be done.
