Fairly new to Joomla development. Put a folder called Forms in model folder to load the necessary JForm data. Everything is working fine but I need to grab data dynamically from the database to populate a drop down box.\[code\] <field name="category" type="list" label="Item Category" description="Item Category" class="inputbox" > <option value="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12776006/1"> Data from database</option> <option value="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12776006/2"> Data from database</option> <option value="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12776006/3"> Data from database</option> </field>\[/code\]The above is a rough example. I want the values and option names to come from a database. Do I use a JTable or params and if so how? I much appreciate any help. Thanking you all.
