Rerender form / Dynamic Modify Binding / Multi-Language

[Bill_P__Chie]

Dear all,

I am try to create a form to support the user to change the language in real time.

So I would like to know if I can:

1) Change the field binding dynamically

So I can prepare a few set of data and bind the one I need, but it seem that I still need to trigger the from to rerender.

2) Refersh the form after the binded data change

I tried something like this:

     xfa.datasets.data.mainData.sfDDLInfo02.loadXML(xfa.datasets.data.mainData.sfDDLInfo01.saveXML(),1,1);

or this:

     xfa.datasets.data.mainData.sfDDLInfo01.Key.value = 'key';
     xfa.datasets.data.mainData.sfDDLInfo01.Value.value = 'value';

And it success to update the dataset, but the dropdown with binded on it do not update....

You can view the binding through script but you cannot change it dynamically.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the reply, good to know the answer so I don't need to try anymore on that. =)

Would like to know if I can trigger rerendering of the object or the whole form with script? Because I have a test case like this:

- With dropdown and a table bind to the same data set

- Add and change data with the control in the table

And I find that the dropdown will update after I adding new entry to the table, thus, I think it is somehow possible, anyone can give some light on this?

Regards

If you do an xfa.layout.relayout() command that will cause the form to layout again. If you simply want to merge the data dom again you can do an xfa.form.remerge(). This remerge may also cause a relayout if there is sufficient change to the data.

Thanks Paul, it work.

Am always wonder where can I find the help/document about the xfa.host/xfa.layout/xfa.form, always seeing these objects but have no idea how can I find out what's available to them.
