Can't set the all day event field to true on form load

[mcgaafar]

Hi,

I'm trying to set the all day event checkbox on a new calender form to checked (True) on form load via javascript as follows:

fd.field('fAllDayEvent').value('1');

however it's not working.

Appreciate your help, and thanks in advance.

Hi,

Try this:

Code: Select all

 fd.field('fAllDayEvent').control()._el().find('input').attr('checked', true);

Thanks for the reply, yes this made the all day event checkbox checked now, however the time controls for start time and end time of the event did not hide like the default behavior, so how can i get this to work?

Thanks again.

Try this:

Code: Select all

 fd.field('fAllDayEvent').control()._el().find('input').click();

Thanks a lot for your reply, it really helped, just to avoid an infinite loop of checking and unchecking the field, i had to place your code in IF condition, here's the code that worked for me:

var allday = fd.field('fAllDayEvent').control()._el().find('input').is( ":checked" );
if (allday == false){
fd.field('fAllDayEvent').control()._el().find('input').click();
}
