I know this is a very mundane question, but I have found no concise documentation.

I’m trying to find code that will allow me to have a dropdown menu populated with custom field entries.

For instance, the cf is FRUIT… and the entries are apples, oranges, bananas, etc.  The user would select apples and the same template page would refresh with all entries with apples.

Can someone please post some example code.  I’m killing myself here.

Thanks in advance.

You might want to look at Dynamic parameters.

You can create a filter SELECT element by manually adding values like…

<form method="post" action="{path="template_group/template_name"}">

<select name="search:your_fruit_custom_field">
<option value="apples">Apples</option>
<option value="oranges">Oranges</option>
<option value="bananas">Bananas</option>
</select>

<input type="submit" value="Go!" />

</form>

Otherwise you’d need a custom query to pull in existing values automatically.
