Dynamic table numeration (removeInstance problem)

Avatar

Level 1

Hello guys,

I'm trying to create a dynamic table that has a column with automatic numeration (some sort of index). Each row has a add / remove button and everytime I add / remove a row a want to recompute the index column because i want it to be ordered.

Everything works fine when I add rows to the table but when i try to remove a row I cannot recompute the rows indexes, Livecycle throws back a very generic exception "GeneralError: Operation Failed".

The code I'm using is as follows:

form1.#subform[0].Table1.Row1.Subform1.Add::click - (JavaScript, client)

var rowNum = this.parent.parent.index + 1;

this.parent.parent.instanceManager.addInstance(rowNum);

for (i = 0; i < this.parent.parent.instanceManager.count ; i++){

     xfa.resolveNode("Row1[" + i + "]").Cell2.rawValue = "" + (i + 1);

}

form1.#subform[0].Table1.Row1.Subform1.Remove::click - (JavaScript, client)

try

{

    var rowNum = this.parent.parent.index;

    this.parent.parent.instanceManager.removeInstance(rowNum);

     for (i = 0; i < this.parent.parent.instanceManager.count ; i++){

         xfa.resolveNode("Row1[" + i + "]").Cell2.rawValue = "" + (i + 1);

     }

}

catch(err)

{

    app.alert(err); 

}

I've noticed that from the moment I do a removeInstance, every operation I do at the table level gives me that exception. I am a Livecycle newbie so it is possible that I'm missing something very basic here...

If you want to take a look of what I'm talking about I have shared it here http://wikisend.com/download/616276/test_dynamic_numeration.pdf

Any help will be highly appreciated

Thanks!
