Hi Julien
The simple way is hijack city select box with javascript.
You add
js=['http://here comes path to your script']
to admin options in your model
js can look like this:
var countries = {'england': ['London','Manchester'], 'france':
['Paris'] }
document.forms['your_form'].id_country.onchange = function()
{ listCities(this.value) };
function listCities ( country ) {
document.forms['your_form'].id_city.options.length = 0
var l = countries[ country ].length;
for (var i = 0; l > i; i++) {
document.forms['your_form'].id_city.options[i] = new
Option( countries[ country ][i], countries[ country ][i]);
}
}
I hope it helps :)
