Valuelist from field not displaying with CDML

[Amund]

Valuelist from field in another file not displaying in CDML!

I have created a database called "CategoryDB.fp5", inside it has 2 important fields : "Category" and "CustomerID" - at the moment it contains 11 records. Next I have a DB called "LabelDB.fp5", it has several records and also has the fields "Category" and "CustomerID" in common. "LabelDB" has a relationship to "CategoryDB" with the field "CustomerID" wich relate to eachother (Relationshipname: CategoryDB). I have created a valuelist in "LabelDB" wich is ment to display values from the field "Category" in the "CategoryDB" related to a spesific "CustomerID" (E.g all categories in the CategoryDB for a selected customer), and it does within filemaker but is not displaying thru CDML code in a webbrowser. I use valuelists "all the time" but have never created a valuelist wich gather its values from a field in another file, I have tried several methods to make the valuelist to display in the browser, but it does not.

Form example :

<select name="Category">

<option selected>[FMP-Option: Category, List=Category] </option>

</select>

-or-

<select name="Category">

<option selected>[FMP-Option: CategoryDB::Category, List=Category] </option>

</select>

Please help me!

Best regards,

Amund

Hi, Amund! I believe if you search FMFORUMS for info on related value lists (valuelists?) you will find that many folks are in the same situation as you. I saw THIS THREAD recently that discussed something similar. Hope it helps! (There are probably many more threads, too)
