How to extract the data depending on the dropdown menu and autopopulate the search charts

[theouhuios]

I am trying to autopopulate the data from a drop down box in the searchstring according to changes done in the dropdown menu. I might be doing a mistake in understand what 'value' option is and on how to define it to search according to the changes in the search. Please see the code below. Any help would be great.

 <fieldset autoRun="true">
<input type="dropdown" token="option" searchWhenChanged="true">
  <label>Search By: </label>
  <default>Architecture and Engineering</default>
  <choice value="record.groupArea">Architecture and Engineering</choice>
  <choice value="record.groupArea">Channel Support</choice>
  <choice value="record.groupArea">Customer Connection Solutions</choice>
  <choice value="record.groupArea">Customer Relationship Management</choice>
  <choice value="record.groupArea">Data and amp Information Strategies</choice>
  <choice value="record.groupArea">General and Financial Services</choice>
  <choice value="   record.groupArea">  Not Defined</choice>
  <choice value="record.groupArea">P and amp;C Claims Systems</choice>
  <choice value="record.groupArea">Product Solutions</choice>
  <choice value="record.groupArea"> Systems Projects</choice>
  <choice value="record.groupArea">Systems Technology</choice>
  <choice value="record.groupArea">Workforce and Department Services</choice>
</input>
<!-- Allow the user to select a timerange -->


<input type="time">
  <label>Time Range: </label>

</input>

Got it. Was doing a mistake in understanding what token meant. Solved.
