Hide Button Based On Calculated Field

[mente12]

Intended action: Report form > Details area > HTML Block > Hide Submit button based on calculated fields

 

Reasoning: Based on the calculated field I want to allow or not allow the user to submit data from the details form.

 

 

Button does not hide, why?

 

 

<script language="javascript">

var stat='[@calcfield:1]';

if (stat.length>0)

{

  coauthor = stat;

  document.write(stat);

  document.getElementById("Submit").style.display = "none";

}

</script>

 

Possible solution?

Should I have this on exit of the Results page instead?

Good morning Mente,

 

How are you?

 

I think, you can use the Id of the Update button (Mod0EditRecord) instead of "Submit":

document.getElementById("Mod0EditRecord").style.display = "none";

And if you want to hide the button, it's better to place the code under the button - in the Footer of the DataPage.

You can add the Header&Footer element, select the "Footer" element, click the "Source" button, and enter your code.

 

Have a nice day!

Hello mente12

 

What do you meat " submit" on the details page?

 

 

Details page has two buttons - Update and Back 

 

If you want to hide an Update button , you can use the following script :

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

var stat='[@calcfield:1]';

if (stat.length>0)
    {
 
  document.getElementById("Mod0EditRecord").style.visibility = 'hidden';

    }



</script>

"stat.length" means length of symbols in the calculated field. If you want to use value of calculated field, delete the ".lenth" from the script.

 

I hope this helps

Can anyone advise if this is possible in the bulk update screen?  I've tried the solution as is but it doesn't seem to hide the Update button
