[support] Problem with drop down list in a theme

[KOBA | Hans Rossel]

Use http://drupal.org/project/auto_nodetitle to create automatic titles from
fields via tokens. So just make two fields: first name and last name, then
choose automatic title =  firstname lastname.

> I have a huge problem.

> I need to be able to create  relationship between Contact name, Position
> and Region for display in 4 views, one for each region.
> Each Position can have up to 4 names associated with it.
> Some other names can hold 2 or 3 Positions.
> Each name is associated with one region.
>
> I need to be able to display Contact first and last name, Position and
> Region in a page view but be able to select the Region and the
> Position/s within that Region to display in a view page.
>
> The aim is for the viewer to be able to choose which region they are in,
> choose the Position they need help from and see the contact details.
>
> It seems that Drupal 6.19 can only create Select Lists from the Title
> field of any content type, this is a huge problem for me as it means I
> have to enter the first and last name 2 times, once in the title field
> and once in a content field.
> Is there a way around this?
>
> Also I cannot create a view to use as a select list because the title
> only displays as a node type not a field.
> The Contacts drop down seems limited to 18 names and no way of
> displaying any more.
>
> I have content type Contacts which contains 100 names:
> title [first name]
> Last Name field
> Address fields
> Phone fields etc.
>
> I have Content type of Positions
> where title contains 40 member positions like:
> Web Services Administrator
> ISP Provider
> Calendar Coordinator
> Reviewer and so on.
>
> I have  a Region content type
> containing 4 Australian Regions.
> NA [Nothern Australia]One
> CA [Central Australia]
> SA [Southern Australia]
> WA [Western Australia]
>
> I have an Admin Services content type with fields:
> contacts [Displays the node:title]
> Positions [Displays a button list of available positions]
> Regions  [ Region sis displayed as a drop down.

> I hope I've given sufficient information to obtain some help, thanks in
