Question

I have standard page in Salesforce. I cannot modify this page. But what I can do is add javascript or jQuery to this page. I have to replace a inputtext field with a picklist value. I want to build this pikclist using jQuery, the picklist values will be dynamically populated, and replace a input text with this picklist.

I am not sure how to use the .replaceWith() function. please help me out!!

Answer 1

you can use .replaceWith() with you input box like this

$('#YourInputId').replaceWith('<select multiple="multiple" id="YourPicklistId"></select>');

and after that you can append options to your picklist using append
