IWP and Dropdowns

[dustcloud]

Hi all,

My database has a drop list in it and when i use IWP and log in using the web the drop list only show a check mark, none of info that should be in there. Any idea how to fix it? The funny thing is one of my other drop lists on the page works.

Thanks,

TL

I'm having a different problem with drop-downs. Using Filemaker, you can click to enter text into a drop-down menu. However, via IWP, you can only choose one of the value list options -- basically the drop-down is acting like a pop-up.

Is this a FMP8 bug?

Welcome to the forums!

This isn't a bug. A standard drop-down list does not allow data entry, that's a feature FileMaker adds. Web Browsers use standard features. so there's no easy way for IWP to function identically.
