checkbox hides the row in the first table only

Good day,

I have a checkbox in the master page, which when checked, makes visible a row with text field in a table.  I also have a button to add a table and the row is visible when added if the box is checked.  I also have a script in the checkbox that when unchecked, the row in the table hides again.  The problem is that when I uncheck the box, it only hides the row in the first table but not the other tables that were created.  I need to have the row in each table hidden.  I could not find any scripts/information on how to accomplish this.  Please help.  One of the scripts in the checkbox is...

if (this.rawValue == "0") {
this.resolveNode("howobtainedsubform.cardssubform.CARDS.Table1.Row10.encodedinfo").presence = "hidden"

You'll have to use resolveNodes() and a loop to update all instances of the buttons.

The method resolveNodes creates a nodeList you can process. Use the accessor [*] to tell it there are multiple instances to resolve. To a resolve a spicific instance use the index number instead of an asterisk. If you don't provide any accessor, it automatically means [0].

Here's a way how it could look like.

var oNodes = xfa.resolveNodes('howobtainedsubform.cardssubform[*].CARDS[*].Table1[*].Row10[*].encodedinfo'); for (var i = 0; i < oNodes.length; i += 1) { oNodes.item(i).prssence = "hidden"; }

    Good day,

    For some reason, the script is not working.  The script needs to kick in when it's unchecked after being checked.  I entered the incorrect row information in my question.  This is what I have in the "change" of the check box.  

    var oNodes = xfa.resolveNodes('howobtainedsubform.cardssubform[*].CARDS[*].Table1[*].Row1[*].type');
    for (var i = 0; i < oNodes.length; i += 1) {
    oNodes.item(i).presence = "invisible";
    }

    After the box is unchecked, then the row needs to be hidden in all tables created.  This is so that if the user realizes they made a mistake and checked the box after creating multiple tables, this script will hide the row in all of them at once.

      Good day Radzmar,  

      Please see my reply above. Can you help me with the script I entered above?  For some reason it's not working.

      Thank you.
