TOPIC: How to automatically refresh read-only fields

How to automatically refresh read-only fields 4 days 5 hours ago #44000

Hi,
I describe the “scenario.”
  1. I created a form to ask business information about my services.
  2. All fields in the form are mapped to fields of a custom Joomla table ‘#__sales_info’.
  3. In this form the 'sales-city' field is a dropdown populated by a PHP code
//<code>
$items = array();
$db = JFactory::getDbo();
$items[] = "|Selezionare[c]";
$db->setQuery("SELECT cityName FROM #__Cities ORDER BY cityName ASC");
$results = $db->loadObjectList();
foreach ($results as $result) {
    $items[] = $result->cityName . '|' . $result->cityName;
}
return implode("\n", $items);
//</code>
  • In the form there are two other fields, 'sales-zipcode' and 'sales-county', which are read-only and should be populated by the values retrieved from the '#__Cities' Joomla table when a city is chosen in the 'sales-city' field.

    • I was thinking of creating a plugin to achieve this, but maybe there is an easier method to get the same result.
    Can you guys help me with this?
    Thanks and have a nice day
    Gaetano
