About
- Purpose: dataset for drop-down boxes
- Fields:
- ID: The way this is generated is a bit of a kluge so that each line's "value" will be unique, even though some lines may have "aliases". The HTML drop-down list control seems to reject duplicate values. Appending the ID of the "alias" to the ID we actually want used gives a unique value per line which can easily be converted to the proper value by taking only the integer part.
- History:
- 2009-08-30 Created for web interface version
- 2018-05-06 This is no longer being used; SQL now implemented in PHP.
