How do I address the URL attribute of an image field in JavaScript?
I have an image field with a URL. All I need to do is have a drop down that changes the URL of an image field so a different picture can be shown. I'm able to use the drop down to change the presence of an image field but when I try to change imageField.presence to imageField.URL, nothing happens when I make a new selection in the drop down. I've also tried imageField.value.image.href but that doesn't work either.
Am I not referencing the URL attribute of the image field properly or doing something else wrong?
I have exactly the same problem. I'm trying to put an image field so the user can select an image, see it in the form and I can get back an xml with a tag including the href of the image. I can get the href info if I put an image in the original form, the one I send to the user, but if the user changes the image selecting another one the imagefield1.value.image.href code doesn't work at all.
I think this may have something to do with the fact that LiveCycle embeds all images on PDFs whether you want it to or not. I imagine if the images are embedded there really is no URL to change! This has to be some kind of bug because I can't seem to find so much as a reference to this in the documentation or discussion boards. If it isn't a bug or no way around it I'll have to find another solution for this project. Shame
I think it's a bug. Now I've tried to write the href in a text field with a global link to an image field and it works, I see the image displayed in my PDF. But it's impossible to make it the other way. Selecting the image I recover the raw value of the image in the text field but I can't recover the href. Maybe it's what you said, Live Cycle embeds images whether you want it or not.
