Hello

I need to fetch list of all distinct attribute values.
I have 3 degree adress district/region/city. District and regions are selectoboxes, but city is text box.
And costomer wants to have a filter with select box with cities, but there will be only cities which was filled in...
So I need to get all values of attribute.

SQL Like:
SELECT DISTINCT city FROM adress;

Thanks for help.

Hi,

You can try extended attribute filtering. http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/4_0/reference/modules/content/fetch_functions/list

You can alternatively write your own fetch function as well.
