Changing the value of a field (inline edit)

Hello,
I have a listpage with inline edit/add functionality with 2 fields (SelectName and SaveName).

SelectName is a dropdown box with the all the names form the database.

SaveName is a required textfield which has to be saved in the database (it can contain names not belonging to the database).
You can type directly a name in the SaveName field or you select a name with SelectName.

I want to copy the content of SelectName automatically to SaveName if SelectName is filled.
How can I realize this or is there another option ?
Greetings,
Jo van Duin

Hi,
use custom JavaScript code for this purpose. You can add JavaScript code at the end of the page in HTML mode on the Visual Editortab.

Here is just a sample:

<script>

document.forms.editform.value_SelectName.onchange=function()

{

document.forms.editform.value_SaveName.value = document.forms.editform.value_SelectName.value;

}

</script>

Jane and Jo van Duin,
I wonder whether the script works on the list page in inline add/inline edit mode. I guess it works only on Add or Edit page. Please comment. Thanks.

Hi,
this script works for simple add/edit pages.

Hi,
I use an inline add/edit construction. How must I use the JavaScript in this case?

Hi,
unfortunately there is no easy way to upate values on the fly for inline add/edit pages.
