I am having a custom page on opportunity which has dependent picklist where Market Place is dependent on venue

On child page I am setting values as 

window.parent.opener.document.getElementById(venueId).value='{!JSENCODE(venueValue)}';

where venueId is <apex:inputField value="{!oppty.Venue__c}" required="false" id="VenueId" />

I am not able to get dependent picklist value in market place.

  • Instead of JS, can you try setting in constructor or controller method?

  • Maybe I did not get your question right but - if you have the picklist dependent on object then you only need to show them up on visualforce page using inputfield, and it will work.

If you are having multiselect picklist, value in multiselect can be set as 

<script type="text/javascript">
function setValue()
{ 
    var desiredValue = '{!JSENCODE(venueValue)}';
    var selectedItem= window.parent.opener.document.getElementById(venueId+ '_selected');

    var unselectedItem = window.parent.opener.document.getElementById(venueId + '_unselected');
        for(var i=0; i<unselectedItem.options.length; i++) {

        if ( unselectedItem.options[i].text == desiredValue ) {
            selectedItem.appendChild(unselectedItem.options[i]);
            unselectedItem.removeChild(unselectedItem.options[i]);
        }                                       
    }
}

Here one should not forget to append _selected and _unselected to get Id for multiselect picklist.

If you are having single select picklist you just have to assign value and call onchange fuction so that dependent picklist value gets populated. It can be done as <script type="text/javascript"> function setValue() { window.parent.opener.document.getElementById(venueId).value='{!JSENCODE(venueValue)}'; window.parent.opener.document.getElementById(venueId).onchange(); } </script>
