I see. I'm afraid that won't be possible. The hidden field need to be a separate field. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/indentifier-values-in-drop-down-menu#post-7181 Thu, 03 Sep 2009 02:01:31 +0000 zerostar 7181@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hmmm, not sure if we're on the same page here. Let me try to explain a bit more.</p> <p>I would like to add a hidden value to pullDown menu entries that I can utilize as an ID field for a later data infusion into a different database.</p> <p>In other words - an extra value field in the pullDown option selection that would only be visible as a related column in the database results.</p> <p>Does that make more sense?</p> <p>thanks :) </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/indentifier-values-in-drop-down-menu#post-7133 Mon, 31 Aug 2009 09:19:01 +0000 yuniar 7133@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hi there,</p> <p>Sorry if I don't understand you correctly. Do you mean you would like to have a field which is only accessible from your machform admin panel?</p> <p>If so, you can simply set the field visibility to "Admin only". The field won't be displayed within the email but can be modified from your admin backend. </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/indentifier-values-in-drop-down-menu#post-7128 Sun, 30 Aug 2009 05:46:03 +0000 zerostar 7128@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Heya ;)</p> <p>Awesome app - really digging everything about it. I have a question about pullDown menmus:</p> <p>I would like to add a unique identifier value to each option in my pulldown, but I'm not quite sure how to go about it. Here's an example of what I mean:</p> <p><code>&lt;option id=&quot;62&quot; value=&quot;1&quot;&gt;This is item number 62&lt;/option&gt;</code></p> <p>I would like to suppress this value in the email result if possible (but not a total dealBreaker if that's the only thing stopping this from going forward). So, do I add it as a hidden field for <strong>EVERY</strong> pullDown item (I have roughly 150 for this menu), or is there a way to populate the pullDown items in the backEnd somewhere that could allow for that extra value to hook up with that data entry?</p> <p>Thanks again for a great form tool - looking forward to your response :) </p>
