Hide options in a select field - [Solved]

Yes of course you can use CSS to hide options

If you use Javascript (Javascript runs inside the user's browser, after page is downloaded) to hide something, it can be done by either removing the html code of the select options completely out of the html document model or by hiding the select options by setting the style (CSS) property of them ...

But to hide options you must first attach some CSS class to them at creation time (PHP). But if you are able to attach CSS class to them, then it is easier not to output them in the first place. So we come back to the problem that i described in my previous message.

Hello
You tell me just add css to create the menu item, it not works.
Well I'd like to try.
I've only managed to completely hide the field, but not the options individually.
Using javascript I've also got, hide choices, but I do not think you can add javascript and css is added, the menu item.

Alosio,

You cannot hide some options of the select field with css unless you have a way to decide which must of them must be hidden. You say to use CSS, if so, you need to have them assigned a class at creation time.

If you are able to mark some options with a CSS class to hide them completely, for the full lifetime of the current page. THEN WHY output them in the first place ???????

Either way you have to mark them at creation time, otherwise if you do not mark the select options with some css class, then you javascript code must make database queries to find out which option to hide and then hide them.

I think i have been very cleared and detailed on this one.

Best Regards

Hello

The field options "select" to be hidden to each user are preset and are always the same.

Exactly, this is the first step , to find which options should be seen by who.

Then the next 2 steps, are what i described in my previous post.

I ask forgiveness.
You're giving me many important explanations.
I've already read several times what you escriste but I can not translate your words into action.

Regards

Alosio, what i described above, you cannot implement without being a developer.

I was only explaining how it can be done.

You are trying to build a custom solution without being a developer, you will meet more things like this.

You must examine other alternatives, based on the capabilities of joomla and Flexicontent and other extensions, you have available.
