Is there any workaround on how we can display dropdown values based on selected
Jess

Is there any workaround on how we can display dropdown values based on selected dropdown without using javascript or wizard type forms? Our requirement should be mobile-enabled thus we're having problem on how to show ex: State based on selected Region/District and Country etc. Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance....

You can loop back to the same form with the state drop downs. Not necessarily a wizard style form, but the user would notice a refresh of the form. Tried this on a mobile supported form, the refresh rates are pretty decent. Give it a try, see if it fits your use case.

Hi, just thought through what I had posted earlier and I don't think I have provided a scalable idea and for a few reasons. If you have more than one cascading drop down requirement on the same form, then the user experience gets affected a bit. And if the user can keep changing their selection, then it will a pretty bad UX to get them to submit the form to see a revised set of drop downs.

Could you solve this by flipping the sequence of events? For example, have the user enter their city/state in the first screen, then use logic or queries to deduce the County, Region, and Country? This approach would be an even simpler user experience and allows you to keep the form mobile-enabled.

@larson, it will give the user wizard type form still,as much as possible they prefer all selections and user input in one page for that.
