Solution
We use the match= option of the ReadRow  command.

The example also shows

• how to build up a dropdown list dynamically
• how to read the current table row in an InputScript started from a pushbutton
• how to embed a web page into the screen where the URL is based on the selected table row 

Example
We start from a .csv file containing a list of cities, with country, population and geo coordinates (same as in previous tip "Reading a .csv file":

The user selects a country in a dropdown list showing all countries contained in the .csv file. We then display the cities belonging to this country:

In a second dropdown list  "Order by" you can choose the ordering by city name, population or "North to South", here shown for further countries:

Ordered by population

Ordered from Notth to South

When we click on a "city" button, a web page is shown right hand side of our table which displays the current flights via the flight tracking service "flightradar24.com":
