Melodybelle Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 I have a form that has two embedded forms (iframe datapage deployment) First subform is a submission form and the second a single record update form. I have a javascript function that is run by clicking on a button in the parent form that randomly selects a record whose parameters are then passed to both of the embedded forms. After the action is completed, I want to submit both of the embedded forms, without submitting or reloading the parent form, because the action can potentially be repeated. I have tried several options, but can't get the submit to work. Below is my javascript funtion as I have it now. The names of my iframe forms are Form a - embeddedsubmitform Form b - embeddedupdateform Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you <script> function getemprec() { var radget = document.forms[0].elements["cbParamVirtual5"]; //this is radio button that will determine the number of times the function will be run for (var i=0; i<radget.length;i++) { if(radget.checked) { var S1 = radget.value; } } var S2 = Number(S1); var E1 = document.getElementsByName("cbParamVirtual4")[0].length; //this returns a list of total records in the system var E2 = Number(E1); var E3 = E2/S2; var S3 = Number(E3); document.getElementById("InsertRecordNumber_of_Screens").value = S3; var scrtyp = document.getElementById("InsertRecordScreening_type").value; var scrdate = document.getElementById("InsertRecordDate_of_Screens").value; var T1 = document.getElementsByName("InsertRecordEmployees")[0].length; var n1 = Number(T1); var n2 = n1 - 1; var numb = Math.floor(Math.random()*n2); var numb2 = Number(numb); document.getElementsByName("InsertRecordEmployees")[0].selectedIndex = numb2; var reclist = document.getElementsByName("InsertRecordEmployees")[0]; var recvalue = reclist.options[reclist.selectedIndex].value; document.getElementById("cbParamVirtual2").value = recvalue; document.getElementById("embeddedsubmitform").src ='../pages/submit.html?SelEmp_Rec_ID='+recvalue+"&Screen_Type="+scrtyp; document.getElementById("embeddedupdateform").src ='../pages/update.html?DS_Emp_Rec_ID='+ recvalue+"&DS_date="+scrdate; document.getElementsByName("embeddedsubmitform").submit(); document.getElementsByName("embeddedupdateform").update(); } </script> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LWSChad Posted December 22, 2016 Report Share Posted December 22, 2016 Auto-Submitting does not work when more than one DataPage is present in a web-page. A workaround would be to change to a one-DataPage layout. Auto-submit the first page, then upon submitting, pass the param through, load the second DataPage which also auto-submits, then refresh the child.
