Stumped on seemingly simple javascript

[porlhews]

Hi All,

Anyone got any pointers as to why this custom javascript wont work:

var adult = this.get('value');
if(adult == '1'){Fabrik.getBlock('form_1').elements.get('jos_perm___count_checkbox').update('newvalue') ;}

Both the element in which this javascript is written and the cout_checkbox element are field elements.

In chrome, the consol says "Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier "
Joomla 3.3
Fabrik 3.2
Php 5.5.18

Thanks in advance,

Paul Hughes

P.S. I posted this in the community section too - apologies for the duplication.

Should work.
Is your formID=1?
Is jos_perm___count_checkbox an element in your form?
Check for typos.

Hi,

Yep the form ID is 1 and I've checked for typos. Yes all these are elements in my form.

Looking closer at the consol, the error appears to be associated with the preceeding element's javascript. I've copied the javascript consol in below (the error has underlined the line I've highlighted in red). However when I disable that preceeding element, the error is now associated with the preceeding error again. Furthermore, when I disable my count_checkbox element, no errors appear at all.


Fabrik.blocks['form_1'].dispatchEvent('dropdown', 'jos_perm___Internornot2', 'load', 'if (this.get(\'value\') == \'Domestic\') {Fabrik.blocks['form_1'].doElementFX(\'fabrik_trigger_group_group52\', \'hide\', this)}');

Fabrik.blocks['form_1'].dispatchEvent('field', 'jos_perm___Number_of_adults_required', 'click', 'var adult = this.get('value');if(adult == '1'){Fabrik.getBlock('form_1').elements.get('jos_perm___count_checkbox').update('newvalue') ;}');

If it helps I can give access to my site, just let me know who to pm the details to.

This seems to be a bug in the way fabrikar generates the JavaScript (as opposed to inputting a custom JavaScript)

Please see the following link for details;

Please can someone at fabrikar look into this and fix the bug?

Thanks,

Paul

Friendly bump.

Bump.

It's been a week now.

Appreciate the help from troester, but I'm still without a solution. I wouldn't mind, but I am volunteering for a charity to do this and other volunteers are relying on this.

Where are the fabrik staff?
