Dropdown Basic Element: Feature Suggestion - Dependent Dropdown lists

Good afternoon,

I really like Jotform, I think it's overall a great service, and as our overall organization recently transitioned away from Jotform to Monday.com, our team has actually committed to using Jotform since it suits our needs so well and is so user friendly. So great work!

One feature I might suggest is the ability to have dependent variable drop down lists (or from a multi-select list etc.). For instance:

Q1 - Where are you from? (Ans: USA, UK, Australia, etc.)

Q2 - What city do you live in?

• If the Answer to Q1 was USA, then the options in the dropdown menu for Q2 change to US cities
• If the Answer to Q1 was UK, then the options in the dropdown menu for Q2 change to UK cities

etc.

This would be really helpful for larger forms such as registration forms where adding multiple conditional questions would make the data parsing much harder since there would be so many blanks cells depending on the answers.

One question that could change the answers from which you could select in the next question would be really beneficial.

Thanks!
