SharePoint list lookup for supplier and other information

Question

I am used to infopath form where you can fill in drop down of a field with suppliers name. Upon selecting the suppliers name i can use filters to populate other fields such as suppliers contact , address etc.

It was an easy process.

How can i do the same in the default SharePoint forms?

Answer 1

Yes, you can do that. You can edit the Default SharePoint form via Library-> Form Web parts-> Default Edit Form, and add a Content Editor web part into it, then add jQuery code into the content editor web part to achieve it.
