Two conditions inside an IF function

[vegard.grutle]

Hi,

Im using the below script to hide / show a field:

Code: Select all

	 if (fd.field('ContentType0').control('getSelectedText') == 'Complaint') {
        $('div.fd_title').filter(function () { return $(this).text() === 'Root Cause (NCR/Complaint)' }).closest('tr').show();
		
		$('div.fd_title').filter(function () { return $(this).text() === 'Basic Root Causes' }).closest('tr').hide();
	}
    else {
        $('div.fd_title').filter(function () { return $(this).text() === 'Root Cause (NCR/Complaint)' }).closest('tr').hide();
		
		$('div.fd_title').filter(function () { return $(this).text() === 'Basic Root Causes' }).closest('tr').show();

    }

I would also like the script to run if the following condition also is true:

Code: Select all

 if (fd.field('ContentType0').control('getSelectedText') == 'Non-confomance')

How can I include two conditions inside the IF function?

Thanks in anticipation!

Hi,

You can join the conditions by using OR (||) operator:

Code: Select all

if (fd.field('ContentType0').control('getSelectedText') == 'Complaint' || 
    fd.field('ContentType0').control('getSelectedText') == 'Non-confomance') {...}

Hi, Dmitry!

This works on the new form, but when loading the edit and display form both the fields ('Root Cause (NCR/Complaint)' and 'Basic Root Causes') are visible - see attachment.

Any ideas?

Please, note that the ContentType0 field must be located on the same form in order to check it's value via JavaScript. As for the display form, use the code below:

Code: Select all

if (fd.field('ContentType0').value() == 'Complaint' || 
    fd.field('ContentType0').value() == 'Non-confomance') {...}

Hi, again!

The 'ContentType0' is a visible on the form. The snip is only a small part of the form. I just noticed that when changing the value in the 'ContentType0' field (Lookup-field) which is a field that trigger some fields to hide/show after opening the editform the script is running as expected.

Any thoughts?

Hi,
So, as far as I understood, the code is executed when a user switches the value but it also should be executed when a user opens the form, am I right?

[vegard.grutle]

Correct.

[Dmitry Kozlov]

OK, then just call the function containing your code outside of all handlers, ex:

Code: Select all

function myFunction() {
// you code with conditional hiding is here
}

// you call it inside a change handler:
fd.field('ContentType0').change(myFunction);

// you should also call it right here:
myFunction();

Thanks, I will try that!
