How to create a conditional link?

[Stepford]

Good day fellow Caspio developers,

I have a DataPage where I have set up a link using the Link Menu generator found at https://b4.caspio.com/dp.asp?AppKey=a3012000cb4d6f2877864fd4a875 that delivered the following script (where I have added a little font formatting too):

<span style="font-size:12px;"><span style="font-family:tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;"><a class="cbMenuItem" href="#" onclick="window.open(&quot;https://c0esh337.caspio.com/dp/cdemyDataPageAppKey?Dest_Country=[@field:Country_Name]&amp;Company_Name=[@field:Importer_Of_Record]&quot;,&quot;mywindow&quot;, &quot;menubar=1,resizable=1,width=500,height=700&quot;)">View IOR Contact Details</a></span></span>

The general idea here is that when the user clicks on the link, it opens up a pop-up page displaying the Importer_Of_Record contact details and it works just fine for that purpose.

However, there are instances in my data where there is no record in the Importer_Of_Record field and so when this is the case I would like the script to recognise this fact and hide the link.

Is this possible and if so what changes do I need to make to my script?

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks,

Stephen

Hi @Stepford,

What datapage do you use? 

I have a Tabular Report datapage with an HTML block in which I have a JS which display the link to a pop-up based on the condition.

Here is an example of Javascript code I`ve used:

<div id='record[@cbRecordIndex#]'></div>

<script type="text/javascript">

document.addEventListener('DataPageReady', function (event) {
  
       if ("[@field:Name]" == "Jalian Corp") {
document.getElementById("record[@cbRecordIndex#]").innerHTML="<a class='cbMenuItem' href='#' onclick='window.open(\"https://c3fot067.caspio.com/dp/498C4000f7c51a179b034f26a6a5\", \"mywindow\", \"menubar=1,resizable=1,width=500,height=500\")'>Link</a>";
   }
else {
document.getElementById("record[@cbRecordIndex#]").innerHTML="Profile In Progress</strong>";
   }
  
});
</script>

Hope this helps.

Hi @Vitalikssssss,

Sorry for the late acknowledgement to your reply to this thread, but I've been away on vacation
Many thanks for your input, but I don't seem to be able to be able to figure it out from the script you have supplied... I guess I must be doing something wrong.

Thanks again!

Hi @Stepford,

Perhaps exported copy of my datapage will provide you a better understanding.   Ples

Please refer to Datapage named "Company_table_conditional pop_up" and check the code from HTML block.

Thanks for this @Vitalikssssss, but I'm not really sure what I need to do to import this into my Caspio Bridge so that I can take a look 

Could you kindly shed some light please?

Many thanks
