Conditions plugin

Thanks Mikko...

But what you say makes sense. Unfortunately i am the only developer resource

What about putting the cities for each country in a separate drop-down and hiding them all, and showing only the corresponding combo depending on the country chose?

Would that be worth the time or it wouldn't make any difference?

Cheers,
NiCo

There is no limit by design. However, the plugin was designed to solve a problem where there was only a small amount things to hide and show. Beause of this, the javascript that it generates is not optimized in terms of performance. Without seing your site, I would guess that the JS either times out, or runs out of memory.

Can you post the address of your site?

The solution for your problem would be to refactor the code that generates the javascript, but I have no plans to do this currently, since my own sites do not need this in large scale, and I have plenty of other things that need to be fixed. However, if you have developer resources available, I will be more than happy to provide assistance on how to fix this.

I thought this might be the case. However I tried normal fields and it doesnt work either. If I knew I could get one field to work It would make me feel better and of course be useful.

Think about the possibility though of having a condition that showed html code (as the delimt field does) you could do all kinds of things.

thanks, hope you can shed some light

There is a small bug with showing and hiding normal fields in IE. It will be fixed some time (hopefully sooon).

The plugin works in a way that it identifies and input field by it's name and then hides and shows that part of the form. Because delimiter field does not include any name or id attribute in the output, it is not possible to create a generic solution that would hide and show these fields usign JS.

Separate dropdowns would mean that the data would be stored in separate columns in database.

Can you pm the address of your site, so that I can check it?

I just PM'ed you the details.
