I'm trying to auto-populate the dropdown selection list based on the name field with a little jquery after page load, and that works great except when the form is submitted, it checks the value in the selection list and sees that it isn't included in the original list and gives me the error "[name] doesn't have a valid value." Is there any way to get CoffeeCup to accept the new list values - or direct me to the file that is doing the validation so I can see why it is rejecting the submission? I'm trying to do this all via the html element in the form. Thanks!

I use custom code after export to do this on my forms.

Thanks for the response Eric. What I'll probably end up doing is changing the field to a text input which is hidden by jquery and replaced with a dropdown which populates the text field. That way the validation still works. The only problem with that is that I can't use display rules based on dropdown items.

I use jquery and php ajax request to pull the needed display rules.
