Available Choices in Edit/New Form

I want to set a dynamic default value of a single-value choice field (radio button type).
Q: How do i get the available choices as e.g. array of strings in order to determin the index of the choice value i want to set?
Thanks,
Armin

I do this to get the array of (unselected) choices inside the new field: fd.field('SF_x0020_Lot_x0020_No').control()._el()[0]
.innerText.split('\n'); Two drawbacks: - Only works as long as nothing is actually selected. - Must be considered a hack

Hello,
Code: Select all
fd.field('choice').control()._el().find('td');
will get you all radio buttons in their correct order.
Code: Select all
fd.field('choice').control()._el().find('td').length
will give you how many buttons there are
Code: Select all
fd.field('choice').control()._el().find('td').eq(1)
will give you the second button
Code: Select all
fd.field('choice').control()._el().find('td').eq(1).find('label').text()
will give you the label of the second button
Code: Select all
fd.field('choice').control()._el().find('td').find('label')
will give you the labels of all buttons in their correct order
Code: Select all
fd.field('choice').control()._el().find('td').find('label').each(function( index ) {
console.log( index + ": " + $( this ).text() );
});
will print you all the labels with their indicies.

Good morning Rostislav,
thank you for your detailed answer!
from
http://spform.com/forms-designer- ... eld-values :
fd.field('ChoiceSingle').value('B');
does not work for me. Instead of 'B' i set the value like this:
fd.field('ChoiceSingle').value(ChoiceSingleChoices.indexOf('B'));
Maybe this is a documentation bug...
Best wishes,
Armin
