   RE: [dita-fa-edboard] Product and Services input form layout .. is this

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

This sounds like a good plan. Can you give me the fields you want on the form--the basic info and checkboxes? If we can get the
alpha list up for launch, then work on filters, that would be great.

Thanks,

Subject: [dita-fa-edboard] Product and Services input form layout .. is this possible in Drupal?

Hi...

Here's what I've been thinking as far as input forms for the Products and Services pages. Rather than trying to group each
product/service into categories, it seems like it would be best (if this is possible with Drupal) to allow people to select from a
list of options to filter the list of available items to a short list that matches their needs.

The input form would request the basic info, and ask that the submitter select from an array of checkboxes, the features or services
that apply to the item. On the user end, when someone goes to the  Products or Services pages they would initially see a list of all
items (ordered alphabetically), but by selecting from the available filtering options the list would be reduced to matching items.
