Ho everybody,

 

Is there anyway - except with APEX - to update a select list?

 

I know that SF natuarly doenst support this - Buy maybe you know a workaround.

 

Best regards,

Hello Freytag;

What do you mean by  "update a select list"..???

If you want to add more options to the list you can do it by using a javascript.  However if you expect something different pls try to explain further. 

 

<apex:page controller="MyController">
<script>
    function insert(selectListId) {
      var selectList = document.getElementById(selectListId);
      var newOption = document.createElement('option');
      newOption.text = 'NewCountry';
      newOption.value = 'NewCountry';
      selectList.add(newOption);
    }
</script>
    <apex:form>
        <apex:selectList size="1" id="myList">
            <apex:selectOptions value="{!items}"></apex:selectOptions>
        </apex:selectList>
        <apex:commandButton value="Add" onclick="insert('{!$component.myList}');return false;"/>
    </apex:form>
</apex:page>

Hey Prageeth,
 
thanks for your time!
 
By "update a select list" i mean to change the value of it with a field update function.
The functions which are triggered by a workflow-rule.
 
Right now i cant only select a value above/ bellow or directly define a value. 
But a can not let a formula select a value <- This is what i would need.
