SharePoint

why is it that it only supports upto 19 items in the drop-down.

Awesome feature. Unfortunately, I cannot edit “Add new entry”-forms, even with websitecollection-admin rights. Is there any way to make this possible?

another bummer. Found out your infopage on how to Insert CEWP and managing code. For those as blind as myself:

Hey Boris, the script is a real lifesaver. Its working great with 19- items. When i then add two more items (so it’s 20+) it no longer works. I’m i missing something?

I troubleshooted some more. You are right (of course . The functionality is working with 20+ on the lists (parent and child).
What i did was to set the Parent lookup to required and then it will stop working. When i took the requirement off it worked again.
I think it probably has something to do with the deafult value of the lookup.
Any idea’s how to get the lookups required without breaking your script?

i have treid to do the same with a script on my own.
i retrieved the data from a specifiek list with JQuery.
i can put the results from the query into the dropdown.
“it is a dropdown created in the document library settings.”
when i run my editpage in sharepoint an i select a value from the dropdown, than i click on the “OK” botton for saving those value’s.
i recieve a error “an unexpected error has occurred”.

control1 = getTagFromIdentifierAndTitle(“select”,”DropDownChoice”,”dropdown1″);
data for recieving the items.
*******
for (var i=0; i<rows.length; i++)
{
var item = rows[i];
var myOption=new Option();
myOption.text = item.getAttribute('ows_Title');
myOption.value = i;
control1.options[i] = myOption;
}

i looked at your code: the following line wont work with my.
i think with a dropdown iets a different value than "childLookup".
var choices = CascadingDropdown.childLookup.Object.choices;
i have allsow tried to do something like this:
control2.options[y](attributeValue(resultNodes[y], "ows_" + CascadingDropdown.childLookupTargetField) + "|" + attributeValue(resultNodes[y], "ows_ID"));

what im a dooing whrong?
thanks

I have to create cascading drop down in my list under my sharepoint site.
There are two drop down country and state……

I did the following steps….

1. Create country list where title field specifies the country names.
2. Create state lsit where title field specifies the state name and country field specifies the country name corresponding to state name. In this list country is lookup field for country list.
3. Then i craete a country_state list where i added country and state column,both are lookup field for country and state list.
4. After then i craete a new form in SPD under my country_state list and added the following script below

and also added jquery.SPServices-0.5.5.js to my document library.

$(document).ready(function() {
$().SPServices.SPCascadeDropdowns({
relationshipWebURL:”link of my sharepoint site”,
relationshipList: “State_List”,
relationshipListParentColumn: “Country”,
relationshipListChildColumn: “Title”,
parentColumn: “Country”,
childColumn: “State”,
debug: true
});

});

But its not working

When i open my country_state list and select any one country in drop down, states for that country will not be appear in the state drop down. Please solve my problem

Waiting for reply.
