    Custom javascript in custom form

    Hi all,

    I need a pair of linked dropdownlists on a Contour form (ie Category and subcategory)

    I'm looking to build a custom fieldtype or form that queries an API on the Category change event.

    Can I put my javascript in the form.cshtml (or even build a fieldtype that has the 2 dropdowns and js)?

    thanks

    Jay

    best is to just add some js, since a field is linked to a caption so having 2 controls in 1 will only give you a single caption

    Hi Tim,

     

    Thanks for that.

     

    I checked the js includes and I have found a conflict between jquery and prototype:

    In devtools I can access the contour selects using the full jQuery syntax but not using the $ syntax.
