DEVELOPERS FORUM - Enable the Field

meenu - Thursday, February 7, 2013 4:00 AM:

Hi all,

  I have a field on my form which is disabled at the time of load, I want to make that enable on checking a check box. But It is not getting enabled immediately on checking the checkbox, It is becoming enable on saving the form. Is there a way to enable the field immediately on checking the form and vice versa.

The code I' m using is: onFormPopulated event:

var thisItem = document.thisItem;
var new_fld = thisItem.getProperty("checkbox"); //property of check box
var field = document.fieldsTab["field"].substring(0, 32);

document.getElementById(field).disabled = true;
if(new_fld==1)
{
document.getElementById(field).disabled = false;
}

Please help me.

if your field is item property you can use following one line code to update it:

handleItemChange("NAME_OF_THE_FIELD","VALUE_OF_THE_FIELD");
