custom data type: Code picker

Posted on Monday, August 18, 2008

After a few hours of extra development, I've finally finished a first custom datatype, which I've now called 'Codepicker'. Basically, this custom datatype allows developers to create any number of custom dropdowns, holding a series of values populated from a database rather than entering all static values manually, as you normally would with a dropdownlist. Read more about it in the articles section.

Sure,

No prob. Nice to see package is being picked up by others. Just get a copy (should be fairly easy to include in the distribution) from the site. I was planning on modifying the source a bit, as column names are currently hard coded, and I want those to be configurable. And same goes for fetching table names from the db.

Greetz,

Dirk,

This is HOT. I'd love to see that datatype to be a part of the default distribution. What do you think about that?
