How to change the dashboard filter value from a custom visualization?

[chanst2]

I am trying to build a custom visualization with a fancy table-like object showing a city name with some related information. What I would like to do is to be able to click the cell with city name and then change the dashboard filter value to that city name, so that other panels of the dashboard can refresh with data about that city accordingly.

What code should I put in the javascript source of the custom visualization (some event handling code, I believe) in order to change the dashboard token? and whether I need to change the javascript of the simple XML too?

Thanks.

Already got the solution be referring to the Token Links example in the Splunk 6.x Dashbaord Examples.
Just have to set the form.TOKENNAME instead of a simple TOKENNAME.
Thanks.
