Incrimental buttons for spawned pages.

Question

I have a form that has fields that will be used to tally devices. I created the button and the form fileds. It works perfectly but not on spawned pages.

This is the script im currently using.

var prefix = ".";

var nameParts = event.target.name.split(".");

if (nameParts.length > 2) {

prefix = nameParts[0] + "." + nameParts[1] + ".";}

var oFld = +this.getField("QWR");

if(isNaN(oFld.value))

oFld.value = 0;

else

oFld.value += 1;

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

The following code works for me:var prefix = ""; // for template assume null prefix;var nameParts = event.target.name.split("."); // split spawned renamed field name into an array;if (nameParts.length > 2) { prefix = nameParts[0] + "." + nameParts[1] + "."; // first 2 elements of the array will be the "P#" and the template name;}var oFld = this.getField(prefix + "QWR"); // access field name with spawned prefix values;if(isNaN(oFld.value))oFld.value = 0;elseoFld.value += 1;

Have you looked at the spawned pages in the field edit mode?

If not you should.

Try;

var prefix = ""; // for template assume null prefix;

var nameParts = event.target.name.split("."); // split spawned renamed field name into an array;

if (nameParts.length > 2) {

prefix = nameParts[0] + "." + nameParts[1] + "."; // first 2 elements of the array will be the "P#" and the template name;

}

var oFld = +this.getField(prefix + "QWR"); // access field name with spawned prefix values;

if(isNaN(oFld.value))

oFld.value = 0;

else

oFld.value += 1;

The above code checks to see if one Is on the template page or a spawned page from the template and adjust the prefix as needed.
