Conditional Image Display

[Gwen]

I want to display an image file only if a specific condition occurs. How can I display the image from within a Javascript?

The conditional test is working - I can do a document.write ("Accredited Test Center") but I can't get an image to display. Any suggestions????

var v_url = "[@field:Accredited_Certified]" ;

if (v_url = "Accredited Test Center") {

document.write (" };

img tag is not correct in your code, see below for the correct one.

var v_url = "[@field:Accredited_Certified]" ;

if (v_url == "Accredited Test Center") {

document.write ("};

Best,

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately it still doesn't work. Are you sure an

I got it to work! The end paren was missing. Thanks!

Now I need to change the conditional from = to "contains". How can I do this?

If v_url contains the string "abcd" then I want to display the image.

Here's the current code:

var v_url = "[@field:Accredited_Certified]" ;

if (v_url == "Accredited Test Center") {

document.write ("};

Thanks!

To search for a specific value in a string you can use indexOf method in Java Script such as:

string.indexOf(searchstring)

This method returns the position of the first occurrence of a specified value in a string. If the specified value is not found the method returns -1. Please learn more information about this at http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_indexof.asp.

For example in your case you can have:

if (v_url.indexOf("Accredited Test Center") != -1){

...

..

}

Thanks. I cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong. I tested the document.write ("") };

if (v_cert.indexOf("GS1 US Certified Barcode Products")!= -1){

document.write ("") };

I was able to get the result "-1" to display. So it's not finding a string match. I tried to display the string but it doesn't print. Is is possible that because this is using a View rather than a table that the @field needs to be different to access the field?
