Title/Caption: Cascading dynamic database field names and values
Start Date: 2/10/2016
Main Status: Active

Sorry, no photos available for this element of time.


Notes:
As we get deeper into the dynamic database field names and cascading them around to different pages, we may need a plan for doing that. I would recommend that we do a similar thing that we did with the black boxes in the ecommerce and shop folder. Basically, we used a method and a .cfc file to setup the defaults (variables and function calls). We then created a new object and then called the other methods over and over again to get what we needed. We could pass in the table name, the field name, and the corp id. This would return any data for that field and that corp. If no records were found, it could return the defaults so that the page could work just like normal. Anyways, just some ideas.

We could also just pass in the table name and the corp id and it could return all records and data objects. We could then access any of the pieces. If we only wanted a smaller sub set of data, we could pass in a single field name or a list of field names. That way the returning records and datasets could be as small as possible.
