Let's say that a DataTable is created properly with several rows and columns. The 'New' button is hit to enter a new row into the table. The form displays fine. Can a listbox be placed into a field of that display so that the user can choose a value. For example, can a list of company departments be listed in the listbox that the user must choose.

The data for the rows in the listbox would come from the server thus I assume this would be an Ajax request. Is this possible to create this form? I would greatly appreciate any help or link to point me in the right direction.

    Editor has built in support for select, checkbox and radio any of which could potentially be used as a "listbox".

    You might be particularly interested in taking a look at the join example which uses a select input to allow selection from items that exist in the database. The checkbox and radio controls also operate in a similar way.

    Is that what you were referring to by a "listbox"?

    I guess the term listbox is an old term. Select field is what I was looking for. Thanks and have a great day!
