Hi, I'm looking for help to learn how or have created for me a searchable database that doesn't have a pull down windows. I need people to be able to look up an address then it will tell them if they are in the clients service area. I use formidable forms however the client doesn't like it the way it has a pull down windows. Thank you, Kim

Pull down windows? Drop-down fields? Can you share a screenshot of your application and the "windows" in question?

This is how I set it up but they want it to be like a normal search box.

Not sure exactly what you mean by that, but probably just not having to click the drop-down itself. You might enable multi-select and autocomplete and then adapt this code to limit the multi-select to 1 max. Here is an example of how to limit the multi-select variable to 1 max -> https://jsfiddle.net/cdog/nm60u4v9/.

Thank you, I will look at this.

Sure thing. There probably isn't an easy solution (without custom code) that will get it to look exactly like what they want. Hopefully they are flexible.
