contact based on dropdown

Hi,

I know, I keep pestering the forum. I have another question though.

I’ve created a custom dropdown containing a list of products we supply For each account that we have there’s a contact that specializes in that product. Is there any way to display a specific contact based on a selection from a dropdown.

So say that ABC is an account that we have. Mary and Jim are contacts for that account. We sell apples and oranges. Mary is the contact for apples and Jim is the contact for oranges for that account.

is it possible to select apples from a dropdown and only display Mary’s name, or if oranges is selected Jim’s name is displayed?

I think you need to inject some javascript into the view, so it reacts to the dropdown change, and makes a few queries and outputs the result.

This is beyond my abilities, though, and even if I knew how to do it I would not have to time to explain all of it here :slight_smile:

But you can try looking for similar things on Google.

Thanks again PGR,

This is beyond me too…for the sake of speed and convenience I’ll have to use panels in some way…I guess I’m looking for more than the software can do…
