Custom Field in Sitecore XP 8.0 Client

I have to add a custom field ie. Drop List of country and auto populate the Drop List of cities on selection of respective country in Sitecore Client.
If possible we have to take the list of Countries and Cities from the Content Item.
There is nothing like this out of the box in Sitecore. What you need to do is to implement custom Sitecore field.

asp.net mvc Filter Database using multi-select list and return this to JSON

I have created some multi-select lists using html helpers. I have populated the list using the database making sure that each list is distinct. I was wondering how can I make a filter that would allow me to get the users selection list, filter the database and return this data as JSON in order to show on my site?

searchable grid using knockout in mvc

I need solution for my problem on urgent basis, I am new with mvc, knockout please provide me sample code for my problem. any help will be highly appreciated.
suppose I have an observable array in my viewmodel i.e
var viewmodel = {
vendorproviders : ko.observablearray([])
}
where vendorproviders list consist of multiple attributes like id, name, country, address etc
I want to populate that array in my grid where each row will have a select button, when that button is clicked it should post the id to my controller action either by submitting or by ajax call.
Furthor more that grid should be searchable like if there is a separate text box, based on the value of text box grid should display matching providers else display all providers.
when user search for particular provider grid should populate from observable array instead of making call at server again and again to pupulate the observable array.
I would suggest starting here.

Asp.NET MVC 2 dynamic editor template based on dropdown value

I am working on a model criteria builder. I have a dropdown list with all of the model properties, a dropdown list with static operators (less than, equals, like, etc) and a user input form element for the value. The issue is that the form element type (dropdown, date, text box, etc) for the user input value needs to be based on the data type of the model property chosen in the first dropdown list. What is the best way to achieve this using MVC 2? Ideally I would like to just create an Html extension method and use it like Html.CriteriaFilterFor(model => model) and be able to customize the display using model attributes and metadata.
You should use JQuery to populate the other one. An AJAX call would allow you to pull the second drop down's list. Populating Dropdownlist Using MVC2 Based On Another Dropdownlist (Cascading DropDownList)

Implementing refined search - ASP.NET MVC

In my ASP.NET MVC application I have a view that displays a list of Products in the system. I would like to implement an option for users to filter the list of Products by selecting parametes, similar to the way it's done on www.codeplex.com. I would like to know how you would go about doing this in the most efficient and simple way? Any links to tutorials or guides are appreciated.
In our application we load up a list of all of the products into the web page, and use the Quicksearch jQuery plugin to filter the list. This allows the user to enter a word or two into a textbox, which collapses the list to only those entries matching what the user typed.
Basically, for a search of this type (server-side), you need:
Fields in a <form> for the user to fill out to perform the search request.
A button to post the form fields to your controller method
A repository for the Linq queries that will return the proper records.
A Method in the repository that accepts the parameters you have captured, and executes a linq query returning your filtered result, using Where clauses to filter the returned records.
The result of the query gets returned to the view for display.
If you need dynamic capabilities (i.e. the user may omit one or more parameters, and you need the flexibility to specify those parameters in the Linq query at runtime), then have a look at Dynamic Linq.
