Losing My Mind

I think I'm going insane here as I am using dynamic drop downs on this page:

http://rsavvy.com/time/times_Search_2017.php

I did it some time back so at a lose.
If you notice the Client Status you can see that Active is selected which automatically populates the "Client Company" below. And if you change the Client Status it changes. All works great. BUT HOW? There is no onchange event on the drop down and there is nothing attached to the body tag either for onload, so for the life of me I can't figure out how the heck I did this!

Please help!

It looks like I need login information to see the page you are talking about.

UGH. Thought I removed that! Sorry, it is removed.
The reason I am trying to find this as I need to change the way this function works. Currently it is another ACTIVE or INACTIVE but I need to add an option that is ALL (loading all records), so I was thinking that if the page loaded with everything (essentially ALL) and only if the user changes the active/inactive option then it will load either. Thoughts?

In your redeye.js file you have:

$('#clientStatus').change(function () {
populateClients();
}).trigger('change');

that adds the onchange event. That list isn't using our dynamic dropdowns.

Ah! They use another guy, he must have done this! Perhaps I'll rip it out and use the dynamic dropdowns? Unless you can tell me easily how to make that change.

I think any solution you can get working is the right one. You could probably update the code you have and just add a "select status" option to the top of the list and update the javascript code. Adding another Dynamic Dropdown would work, but might actually be more complex. These days I don't use dynamic dropdowns. If I want a dynamic dropdown I use WebAssist Plugins and AJAX, but rewriting all of it might be overkill.

I'm probably going to remove the Dynamic Dropdowns extension and do a tutorial on how to do it with Plugins and AJAX at some point. It is more powerful, versatile, and loads faster.

The easiest way to fix it is to update the existing code and make minimal changes.
