I want to have a lookup against an external database to retrieve information based on a survey response. For example: user enters vehicle identification #, I want to look up the make, model, year, etc.
The way I'm attempting to do this is by adding a function to the em_core_helper.php module, which contains the logic to connect to the database, then look up the information.
Question, can the return from this function be a name->value pair, such that I could reference it as {car_id(qCarId.shown)["Model"]} or [car_id[CarId.shown)->Model?
Open to ideas of another way to do this....
