dynamic dropdown – can this functionality happen?

[larryk]

hi,
can this situation happen or be implemented?

a DB table of cities and state
a DB table of zip codes in a city

So the dropdown displays CITY + ZIP CODE
– if a city has multiple zip codes, a city has multiple cities
– a person can type in a zip code OR city, to find which one they want

== meaning, the instructions says: find your city or zip code

– dropdown populate as you type

can that happen?
thanks

thanks, so if i have jquery script working, that implements this type of functionality, I can “use it”, while still using quform to generate the form?

where or how do I set the “field” to use the custom code?

thanks

thanks…

so i’m a newbie when it comes to jquery, etc. I know PHP well, but feel completely lost with jquery 🙁
I can edit, tweak jquery some, but just don’t get the main parts 🙂

question/situation:

1) i have some working jquery custom code that populates as you type, pulling data from a table.
2) its working but I dont’ understand how!?!?!? —> there are 4 files:
-demo.php = the visual file you see which has the html of the form
-index.php = php code that has connection to DB
-js. file = the jquery code that does the functionality
– css file = formating

3) I do not see how or where the jquery in the js file connects to the DB, but it does.

SO… to the point…
if I make a quform with the single line text field, how or where do i add the php/js/jquery code to make the same functionality happen?

so I have the pieces but don’t know how or where to make them work on the quform?

Maybe this is out of your range of support or help, but I wanted to ask 🙂

THANKS!
