What would the syntax be for adding a button to the form?

We added link and button controls to Forms Designer v. 2.7.3. Now you can put links and buttons by dragging them anywhere in the form.

Hi was wondering if I can add a variable (i.e. field value) on the end of the href. or add in a filed value directly.


Example


var v = fd.field('PhoneNumber').control().value();

$('.dialer').prepend('<a href="https://PhoneSystem/webdialer/Webdialer?destination=' + <var v> ">Dial</a>');


or

$('.dialer').prepend('<a href="https://PhoneSystem/webdialer/Webdialer?destination= + fd.field('Phonenumber').control().value(); ">Dial</a>');

Hi Greg,

Your second option looks well, you only need to adjust its syntax:

Code: Select all

$('.dialer').prepend('<a href="https://PhoneSystem/webdialer/Webdialer?destination=' +
    fd.field('Phonenumber').value() + '">Dial</a>');

Hi Dmitry thanks this looks great. I now get 'undefined' as a value even though there is a numeric valueinthe field. Looks liek it is not picking up a value.

All the best,
Greg

Ensure that you use correct internal name of the field in your code.

There was a typo in internal name. The control had to be changed slightly as well. This works

$('.dphone').prepend('<a href="https://10.7.16.10/webdialer/Webdialer?destination=' +
fd.field('Direct_x0020_Phone').control()._el().text() + '">Call</a>');

How do you change the location of the hyperlink in reference to the field itself. {Call} appears above the field and I would like to see it to the right of the field. Thanks Murray

Alternatively can this functionality be added to a 'Button' On-Click function? USing the 'Button' drag and drop from left hand menu?


Thanks,
Greg
