Having trouble with the getvalue on load for the Javascript. I want the fields to display if they have attachments loaded to them using this code:



if(ctrlattach2.getValue()!='')

{

attach2.style.display = '';

}else{

attach2.style.display = '';

}

if(ctrlattach3.getValue()!='')

{

attach3.style.display = '';

}else{

attach3.style.display = '';

}


Is there something different that needs to be done? Using the same variables in a change event works - using this code:


ctrlattach1.on('change', function(e){

if (this.getValue() != '')

{

attach2.style.display = '';

}else{

attach2.style.display = 'none';

}

});

ctrlattach2.on('change', function(e){

if (this.getValue() != '')

{

attach3.style.display = '';

}else{

attach3.style.display = 'none';

}

});


when the page loads the two rows are not showing up; however, when i make a change to the first item and the second they appear. So wondering if the getvalue should look at something different for File/image fields.

The else branch has the same of the if branch. Please, try the following version:

if(ctrlattach2.getValue()!='')

{

attach2.style.display = '';

}else{

attach2.style.display = 'none';

}

if(ctrlattach3.getValue()!='')

{

attach3.style.display = '';

}else{

attach3.style.display = 'none';

}

Wow, didn't even catch that in this post; however, I had fixed what you pointed out along the lines and still no luck. It appears that the getValue is looking at the first box in the file/image field. Is there something I need to do to get the getvalue to look at the second box "field" to the right of Filename? The reason I say this is when I click browse and add a new record there is now a value in the first field and then the code detects. I should make note that this is on the edit page.

Check with firebug the id of the second field and and enter the following code:

if($("#id_of_the_second_field").val() != '')

{

attach2.style.display = '';

}else{

attach2.style.display = 'none';

}

Got it, thanks.
