Hi,

I'm about to buy Select Dynamic field plugin, but really don't know how it works in the background on front-end forms.

For example the "Select" field is calculated and user chose something. The form is submitted, the data from "dynamic select" is stored in a database. 

Will it be saved as an id (i.e. value of the field) or will it be just text copied from <option></option> tags? I mean: can I get some kind of sql relation beetwen two tables?

Hi

The field has text and value options... it is up to you what you want value to be set as...

select-dynamic-field-options-user-s-own-content

The above shows id as value but it could be anything from the queried table.... ie alias, catid, lastvisitdate etc...

Not sure what you mean by:

I mean: can I get some kind of sql relation beetwen two tables?

If you do a free query you construct sql query yourself ....
