[Typo3-dev] extension TCA question

[media.res | alex widschwendter]

hi zach,

> One of my clients want an extension in which the records would be 
> organized by category and sub-category. For example, a category might be 
> "landscapes" and it might have the sub-categories "mountains" and 
> "plains." The idea is that when the user created a record in the 
> backend, she could select the category from one drop-down menu and then 
> select the sub-category from another drop-down. Can anyont think of a 
> way (using TCA, flexforms, whatever) to make the contents of the 
> sub-category dropdown menu change based on what's been selected in the 
> category dropdown? (in the example, we would only want the 
> sub-categories of the "landscape" category to show up.)
