change caption numeric field

[swvermeulen]

I have a form with at least 2 radio buttons named type1 and type2  and on 2 different pages 2 numeric fields NF[0] and NF[1], the binding of NF is global.

if I select the radiobutton type1 then the caption of NF[0] and NF[1] should change into "Type1" and visa versa

I have the following javascript text in the change of the radiobuttonlist:

if (this.rawValue == 1)

{

xfa.form.form1.test.NF.caption.value.text.value = "type1";

}

else if (this.rawValue == 2)

{

xfa.form.form1.test.NF.caption.value.text.value = "type2";

}

this only changes the caption of NF[0], how do I change the caption of NF[1]??

best wishes

You can change it with the names that you have but the syntax of the expression is quite confusing:

xfa.resolveNode("xfa.form.form1.test.NF[1]").caption.value.text.value = "type2"

If you rename the field to a unique name then you can set it like the first one:

xfa.form.form1.test.NFnewName.caption.value.text.value = "test2"

Note that you do not need the xfa.form at the beginning of the expression ....so to simplify it woudl be:

form1.test.NFnewName.caption.value.text.value = "test2"

you noted that I didn't need to use xfa.form as prefix but I have had several files that if I didn't use the prefix the form wouldn't work, so the prevent that from happening I use it everywhere
