Hi ..

I have a form with dropdown control as below.

<input type="dropdown" token="operator1" searchWhenChanged="true">
            <label>Select ItemId</label>
            <default>*</default>
            <choice value="*">All</choice>
            <choice value="23">ItemId1</choice>
            <choice value="33">ItemId2</choice>
            <choice value="43">ItemId3</choice>
        </input>

Now in query i am passing $operator1$ and getting the value associated with it . ie *,23,33 and 43 etc.

Now my question , i have a simpleheader module to show the heading , now in head instead of the showing the value , i wanted to show the label name

i.e All,ItemId1,ItemId2,ItemId3 etc.... i tried $operator1.name$ but this didnt work ?? is there any way to get the label name then the value ??

Thanks in advance.

my sample code , where i am using to print the selected label name instead of value. which is not working.

<fieldset autoRun="true" submitButton="false">
        <input type="dropdown" token="operator1" searchWhenChanged="true">
            <label>Select Operator (All):</label>
            <default>*</default>
            <choice value="*">All</choice>
            <choice value="*">ItemId1</choice>
            <choice value="*">ItemId2</choice>
            <choice value="*">ItemId3</choice>
        </input>



    </fieldset>
    <row>
        <html>
            <h2> Report Generated for Operator Name  : <b> $operator1.name$ </b>
            </h2>

        </html>
    </row>
    <row>

Cool. You can use lookups,

Create a csv file like below - place it under :- /opt/splunk/etc/app-name/lookups/itemlookup.csv

ItemId,Values
Itemid1,22
Itemid1,23
..
..

create below configs under /local

props.conf

[Itemlookup]
Lookup-itemlookup = Itemlookup itemid as Itemid OUTPUTNEW Values

transforms.conf

[Itemlookup]
filename = Itemlookup.csv

Search query:

[your search]| lookup Itemlookup Itemid as itemid| fields Values

Appropriatly , pass the Itemid and internally it will get you the values/....

have fun

But , whats the use of showing the label name inside the dropdown list ? You can show the label name beside the dropdown list. But not inside the values of drop down.

on selecting that particular label name , it will be passed as an argument for your further search , but where that search will not contain any actual data for it.

But , still if you need to get the label name inside the dropdown values , use static fields

eg :
advanced xml.

<param name="staticFieldsToDisplay">
         <list>
            <param name="value">operator1.name</param>
          </list>
</param>

Hi Splunker12er. i guess you got my requiremnt wrong. i dont want the label namevalue inside the dropdown list. If you see my code above i am able to create a drop down with the following data i.e All as "", ItemId1 as "23" ,ItemId2 as "33" and ItemId3 as "43" . Here All,ItemId1,ItemId2 and ItemId3 are the Label names which i show to user , and internal i pass the values associated to it . ie. 23,33,43 or "" . now my problem is i have a html module to show the heading the user something you selected so and so item. to give this heading i need the above requirement.
