JavaScript functions v1.0

Builtin functions

Handling form values

Display values are handled using standard getter and setters

• getValue(fieldName)
• setValue(fieldName,value)

Example

  var a = getValue("NUMBER1");
  var b = getValue("NUMBER2");
  setValue( "RESULT", (a-b) );

For explicitly getting a value (or ID) use

• getDecimal(fieldName)

Example

 var recordId = getDecimal("SELECTRECORD");

Toggling fields (version 5478+)

Fields can be shown or hidden calling the fieldname

• hideField(fieldName)
• showField(fieldName)

The functions are the equivilant of JQuery

  $("#VB_DATA_"+fieldName).parent().parent().hide();
  $("#VB_DATA_"+fieldName).parent().parent().hide();

Examples

  hideField("USER")

  hideField("StatusID")

Hiding and showing fields can be made dependent on classes in the TempusServaPage and/or items current status.

• hideFieldForPageClass(fieldName)
• showFieldForPageClass(fieldName)
• hideFieldForStatusId(fieldName)
• showFieldForStatusId(fieldName)
• hideFieldForPageClassAndStatusId(fieldName,className,statusId)
• showFieldForPageClassAndStatusId(fieldName,className,statusId)

Note: This is NOT intended for denying access to data -it will only be hidden in the frontend, but is still accessible to savvy users.
