Read multifield(say multifield of pathbrowsers) dialog values via js in AEM 6.3

[cquser1]

Hi,

I need to read the values of a dialog which has a multifield of pathbrowsers via my js[being used to display custom validation messages] in AEM 6.3 and populate them into an array for checking if values are present or not in each of the fields.

Tried the options mentioned in the below articles,

http://www.adobeaemclub.com/aem-touch-ui-dialog-validation/

which has something like $form.find, but no luck.

Any thoughts/pointers/code snippet on this will be helpful.

Any thoughts on this will be helpful.

I recommend using Java to read a Multifield. See this article we read the values in an Multi field - Scott's Digital Community: Creating a Granite/Coral Multi field HTL component for Adobe Experience M...

Here is another article that shows using Sling Models - a recommended way - to read MF:

Hope this helps...

Hi,

Thank you for your reply. But guess this doesn't help the thing I am trying out with. Will check on this though.

@others : In case of any other thoughts , please do provide some inputs on this.

I have never seen reading a MF using JavaScript - its typically Java and HTL.

Hi,

As Scott stated, usually reading MF is done with JAVA and HTL.

As far I know, that is the good approach.

Thanks,

Ratna.
