Hi,

I tired to enable or disable text boxes based on selected value in the column layout. I have 2 values (A,B) and two text box (X,Y).

I am using java script function to enable/disable the fields.

If A selected it has to enables the 'X' text box. If B selected it has to enables X,Y text box. If i deselect B and I select A and B together it has to enable X,Y text boxes again. If none of the above selected all text boxes should get hidden

I am executing the below java script code in the onchange.

Code:

ShowOrHideloc : function() {

var selected = ca_fdGetSelectedOptionValues(ca_fd.formId, 'loc')[0];

if (selected == 'A')

{

  ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'X');

  ca_fdHideField(ca_fd.formId, 'Y');

}

else if (selected == 'B')

{

  ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'X');

  ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'Y');

}

else if (selected == 'A' && selected == 'B')

{

ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'X');

ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'Y');

}

else

{

ca_fdHideField(ca_fd.formId, 'X');

ca_fdHideField(ca_fd.formId, 'Y');

}

},

I am facing issue on here where the If i deselect B and I select A and B together it has to enable X,Y text boxes but  it is not happening.

The explanation of your requirement appears to be:

If B is selected then show X and Y  (regardless of the setting of A)

if B is not selected but A is selected show X hide Y

if neither are selected hide X and Y

So the condition should look like:

if (selected == 'B')

{

  ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'X');

  ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'Y');

}

else if (selected == 'A')

{

  ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'X');

  ca_fdHideField(ca_fd.formId, 'Y');

}

else

{

ca_fdHideField(ca_fd.formId, 'X');

ca_fdHideField(ca_fd.formId, 'Y');

}

Hi Lindsay,

Thanks for the reply.

How can i write a condition if both A & B selected together.

This condition again should show both X & Y field together.

Thanks,

Do you really need to? Don't you want to show X & Y if B is selected? Why do you need a condition to check if B & A are both selected (to show X & Y) if selecting B alone will produce the same result (show X & Y)?

This will work exactly the same as the first solution I proposed:

if (selected == 'A' && selected == 'B')

{

ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'X');

ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'Y');

}

else if (selected == 'B')

{

  ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'X');

  ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'Y');

}

else if (selected == 'A')

{

  ca_fdShowField(ca_fd.formId, 'X');

  ca_fdHideField(ca_fd.formId, 'Y');

}

else

{

ca_fdHideField(ca_fd.formId, 'X');

ca_fdHideField(ca_fd.formId, 'Y');

}

Hi Linda,

It is working fine when only 1 option is selected based on the same JS function provided. However i am unable to take into account when more than 1 option is selected.

I am using the below to get the selection.

var selected = ca_fdGetSelectedOptionValues(ca_fd.formId, 'loc')[0];

How i can achieve it.

Thanks,

Amala

Please call me Lindsay.

The line:

var selected = ca_fdGetSelectedOptionValues(ca_fd.formId, 'loc')[0];

gets you only the first selection.

This line:

var selected = ca_fdGetSelectedOptionValues(ca_fd.formId, 'loc')[1];

will get you the second selection.

This line:

var selected = ca_fdGetSelectedOptionValues(ca_fd.formId, 'loc');

will get you all the selections but the var selected will be an array.
