I have an adaptive form with a repeating panel - carsPanel. The panel fields including text fields such as car number and carMake pulling from a database. With the carMake field, I want to hide the field in a particular panel if the value in the previous panel is the same. For instance, if the carMake field value in panel 1 is "Nissan", and the CarMake field value in panel 2 is "Cadillac", and the field value in panel 3 is "Cadillac", I want to hide carMakethe field in panel 3. My script is below for the initialize event. It is not working. Thank you for any suggestions.
//Repeating Panel name is carsPanel. Fields in panel prefilled from a database using data model |
Is there is documentation on using JavaScript with Adaptive forms?

I switched the script to the carMake field and redid the script to be the below, and it now works. Vijay's post prompted me to switch the script from a panel script to the field script. It does work on the CarMake Change event, but also on Initialize, so I will mark this post as correct to avoid confusion.
var currentIndex = carsPanel.instanceIndex; var previousIndexNumber = currentIndex - 1; if (currentIndex != "0") { var previouscarMakeValue = carsPanel.instanceManager.instances[previousIndexNumber].carMake.value; var currentcarMakeValue = carsPanel.instanceManager.instances[currentIndex].carMake.value; if (currentcarMakeValue == previouscarMakeValue) { carsPanel.instanceManager.instances[currentIndex].carMake.visible = false; } } |
Tried the below and it didn't work. Thanks for any help on this.
var carsCount = this.instanceManager.instances.length; //populate the initial category with the first category var currentCarMake = guide[0].guide1[0].guideRootPanel[0].BodyPage1[0].CarsPanel[0].CarMake.value; for (var i = 1; i < carsCount;i++) { var nextCarMake = guideBridge.resolveNode("guide[0].guide1[0].guideRootPanel[0].BodyPage1[0].carsPanel[" + i + "].carMake").value; if (currentCarMake == nextCarMake) { guideBridge.resolveNode("guide[0].guide1[0].guideRootPanel[0].BodyPage1[0].carsPanel[" + i + "].carMake").visible = "false"; } else { currentCarMake = nextCarMake; } }
You need to put the script in the CarMake field "change " event
