defineAllowableValues

define "allowable" values for a field.

void defineAllowableValues ( String fieldName, String[] validValues, [ onedit_textbox = FALSE ] )

These allowable fields will display in a dropdown of the values you specify. You can have the values for the dropdown be the same as the text or separate. Both examples are provided below.

In addition, you can use the third parameter (optional) to allow fields (after being inserted) to NOT have only the allowed values permissable. If set to TRUE then a regular textbox will appear when editing this field--allowing any values.

What is a single website?

A single website is defined as a single domain name which hosts a collection of web pages which serve a single entity or business. For example www.loudcanvas.com is a single website; ajaxcrud.com is a single website.

Subdomains are allowable under the single commercial website license. Therefore, if you use the subdomain development.xyz.com then you also own/maintain www.xyz.com; we consider the primary domain a single website and the ajaxCRUD software may be installed on any number of its subdomains.

What is a commercial use?

If you are NOT an official Charity/Non-Profit organization (or a student or educational facility) then you likely are a commercial/for-profit orgnization.

If your organization makes a profit, you are a for-profit company. A commercial site is one created for a business, for which purpose is generating revenue or cash flow of any type (and that isn't under a non-profit organization). So if you're selling a product, selling advertisement, selling a service, or just marketing a commercial business, your site is commercial. A company website is commercial even if it doesn't sell anything on the site, as it's purpose is to market/promote a commercial company.
