If-Condition During Redirect

[roelmagpoc]

I need to redirect using a virtual field depending on a datafield value. The virtual field will be assigned the link depending on the WorkOrderDetail. The redirect will happen afer submitting the form. I am also passing an autonumber field called the WorkOrderId.

 

I’m able to pass the autonumber correctly when redirecting, however, my criteria (the if-condition) is not working properly.

 

Here’s my current script which I placed in the footer - it always goes to the â€œelse†part even when it should satisfy the if criteria.(I plan to add more criteria but need to make the script work first.)

<script type="text/javascript">

{

if ("[@field:WorkOrderDetail]" == "M1 TDM")
{document.getElementById("cbParamVirtual1").value = "http://b6.caspio.com/dp.asp?AppKey=b9443000bc1de4154c364d53a0b5";}

else
{document.getElementById("cbParamVirtual1").value = "http://b6.caspio.com/dp.asp?AppKey=b9443000fa23580f2eda4a41bb40";}

}
</script>

 

Hope you guys can help.

Hi Heisenberg!

 

I'm a Newbie too, but I would like to help you,

 

Are you receiving the field [@field:WorkOrderDetail] as parameter from another DataPage or it´s part of the same DataPage?

 

Your dataPage is a submission form?

 

Regards!

Hello!

 

As far as I know, javascript doesn't work with parameters like [@field:WorkOrderDetail]

It's better to use code like

 

var variable = document.getElementById("ID").value;

 

and then work with this variable.

 

ID for Submission forms is:

"InsertRecordFieldName", e.g., InsertRecordWorkOrderDetail

And for Update Form is:

"EditRecordFieldName", e.g., EditRecordWorkOrderDetail

Luis - [@fieldWorkOrderDetail] is a dropdown datafield in my submission form. (The codes I'm using I based from your other posts.)

 

Jan - I tried defining the variables but they still don't work. Here was my original script (I actually just copy codes from this forum; I'm really not a JS programmer). I tried using both getElementById and getElementsByName. When I include the prefix "InsertRecord", I get a "404-File not found" error.

 

<script type="text/javascript">

{

var x = document.getElementsByName("WorkOrderType");

var y = document.getElementsByName("WorkOrderDetail");

 

if (y == 'M1 TDM')

{document.getElementById("cbParamVirtual1").value = "http://b6.caspio.com/dp.asp?AppKey=b9443000bc1de4154c364d53a0b5";}

else if (y == ‘M1 Fiber’)

{document.getElementById("cbParamVirtual1").value = "http://b6.caspio.com/dp.asp?AppKey=b94430008aaa7fbc77eb48df83f8";}

else

{document.getElementById("cbParamVirtual1").value = "http://b6.caspio.com/dp.asp?AppKey=b9443000fa23580f2eda4a41bb40";}

}

</script>

Hello Heisenberg!

 

 

Before run the below script go to "Web Form Wizard - Destinations and Triggers to set the destination options: 

 

 

Destination after record submit: Go to a new page 

Page URL: [@Virtual1]

 

 

=>> In your last script you forgot the last command "document.getElementById("caspioform").onsubmit=myFunction;" 

 

 

Try this script!

 

 

 

<script>

 

function myFunction() 

{ 

var y = document.getElementsByName("InsertRecordWorkOrderDetail")[0].value; 

 

if(y == "M1 TDM"){ 

 

document.getElementById("cbParamVirtual1").value = "http://b6.caspio.com/dp.asp?AppKey=b9443000bc1de4154c364d53a0b5";} 

 

else if(y == "M1 Fiber"){ 

 

document.getElementById("cbParamVirtual1").value = "http://b6.caspio.com/dp.asp?AppKey=b94430008aaa7fbc77eb48df83f8";} 

} 

 

 

document.getElementById("caspioform").onsubmit=myFunction; 

 

 

</script>

 

 

 

I hope it works!

 

Regards!

Thanks Luis & Jan! I have a working code now.

 

Major lesson learned: define the function and run it upon submit. I did not do this the first time so my codes were not working.
