Add dynamic values to dropdown/radio/checkbox options

    I have searched the forum extensively and I realise that option values for Dropdown/Checkbox/radio button form elements are static.  This is a very serious gap, in the otherwise absolutely super form creating software.

    For slightly complex and dynamic forms, I cannot stress enough how critical it is to be able to programmatically provide limited/filtered set of options for end-users to select from.

    Please consider adding this feature to jotform.  Perhaps you can create a widget.  Or it might be easier to give us some conditional setting option to enable/disable/hide/show options in the dropdown/checkbox/radio options, based on critieria in field values.  That way one can create a laundry list of options for the dropdown via the Settings menu.  And then filter this list via 'Conditional Settings'.

    Please do give this feature a serious thought.  This feature will 'complete' your form-making software.

    Best regards,
