[Cartoweb-dev] New Plugin with Dropdown

[Carolin Latze]

Hi,

the reason is, that I copied it without thinking :-/ Well I found it out
some one minute before I received this mail.... Sorry. But is there any
documentation about the possible onchange values? That might be
interesting anyway.

Regards
Carolin
