Signature Field Requirements

[ababcock]

I have a signature field on a submission form. I want to require that the name entered matches the name of the user logged in. How can I achieve this?

Hello ababcock,

 

I am sorry, I am not sure that understand you correctly.

A user enters a name (username?) in a field, clicks the "Submit" button and if the entered name is not the name of the logged user, alert message is displayed and a record is not added to the DataBase. Is it correct?

 

If I understand the logic correctly, maybe, you can use a Standard Feature "Stamp a Record with User Profile Data"?

Does it work for you?

I was able to accomplish this by adding an HTML block after the Signature field and filling it with this:

 

<script>

 

document.getElementById('caspioform').onsubmit= function (){

 

 

 

var myname = document.getElementById('InsertRecordSignature').value;

 

if (myname != '[@authfield:User_List_Signature_Name]'){

 

alert('Not a valid name');

 

return false;

 

}

 

 

 

}

 

</script>

 

If a user tries to enter a name other than the one registered to them, they get the alert 'Not a valid name.'

 

I tested it out, and it works! Thanks!

Hi Everyone - Just an update, Caspio has a new offer, and it's called App Extensions. Electronic Signature is included as well. You can check this link for reference.
