Use AJAX for cascade options?

When checked, this allows these fields to dynamically load available options based on the other field value (grouping column) when dealing with tremendous amount of selections.

Important

Do not forget to configure the dependency field in Field ID to control available oiptiosn based on Grouping in the next tab.

Important

Use question mark (?) in your SQL SELECT Query to represent dependency values.

Add Empty OptionIf checked, an empty option will be added to the selections.
Empty Option LabelEmpty option label. Only in use when Add Empty Option is checked.
SQL SELECT Query

To populate a selectbox, for example, you need to return at least 2 columns. The first column is used for value/ID. The second column is used for label. An optional third column can be returned for grouping value.

Example
SELECT username, CONCAT(lastName, ' ', firstName) FROM dir_user

 

When Use AJAX for cascade options? is checked, make sure that a question mark is placed within the query.

Example
SELECT username, CONCAT(lastName, ' ', firstName) FROM dir_user WHERE timeZone = (?)
