push value to array (javascript)

[keith21]

Hi
can anyone help me with this code below. I need to push data from original to amended field.

var originaldata = Fabrik.getBlock('form_79').elements.get('pim_staff___ENID_Staff_Original');
var amendeddata = Fabrik.getBlock('form_79').elements.get('pim_staff___ENID_Staff_Amended');
var original = originaldata.get('value');
var amended = amendeddata.get('value');
if (amended === '') {document.getElementById("pim_staff___ENID_Staff_Amended").values.push('original'))}

Yeah, that's not even close.

Exact code needed depends on what element types they are.

Can you point me at the page?

OK, so what are you actually trying to do? Append the value of 'original' to 'ammended'? What should trigger it? A change to original?

OK, what I want the edit button to do is simply if the user clicks on the button is coz they are not happy with the current details held for them. The details are sent from original to amended feild for user to change. If the edit button is not hit coz details are correct then it is automatically moved into the amended feild, to be saved.

Not sure what you mean by "if the button is not hit". How can a non action trigger anything? Or do you mean on save, if the amended field is empty, copy the original in to it?

sorry forgive me for that explantion. Yes on save if amended feild is empty, copy from original.

Thanks

You'd probably be better off doing that bit with a php submission plugin.

So on form submission I could do something like this:

$original = $formModel->getElementData('pim_staff___ENID_Staff_Original');
$amended = $formModel->getElementData('pim_staff___ENID_Staff_Amended');

if ($amended === '')
{
  $formModel->updateFormData('pim_staff___ENID_Staff_Amended', 'pim_staff___ENID_Staff_Original', true);
}

please forgive me if the code is incorrect as I am no coder, but do try

Thanks

Yup, that should do it. Set it for onBeforeProcess.
