merge multiple if queries?

[Dashmir82]

Hii,

I have three if query.

If I add only one IF-Statment, then this query works., but when I put all three together, the if-statemants do not work.

//This if, disable all Checkbox and textfields

if (this.getField("Bewerbung_post").value == "Ja") {

    this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").display = display.hidden;

    this.getField("Email_Adresse").display = display.hidden;

    this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").display = display.hidden;

    this.getField("Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson").display = display.hidden;

} else {

    this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").display = display.visible;

    this.getField("Email_Adresse").display = display.visible;

    this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").display = display.visible;

    this.getField("Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson").display = display.visible;

}

if (this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").value == "Ja") {

    this.getField("Bewerbung_post").display = display.hidden;

    this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").display = display.hidden;

    this.getField("Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson").display = display.hidden ;

} else {

    this.getField("Bewerbung_post").display = display.visible;

    this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").display = display.visible;

    this.getField("Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson").display = display.visible;

}

if (this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").value == "Ja") {

    this.getField("Email_Adresse").display = display.hidden;

    this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").display = display.hidden;

    this.getField("Bewerbung_post").display = display.hidden;

} else {

    this.getField("Email_Adresse").display = display.visible ;

    this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").display = display.visible ;

    this.getField("Bewerbung_post").display = display.visible ;

}

Do I have to build the if-statment differently?

I am new to Java Scripting, so I am grateful for every tip.

The first step is to clearly define, for each field, when it should be visible and when not.

For example, "Bewerbung_elektronisch". Should it be visible if "Bewerbung_telefonisch" is not "Ja" AND "Bewerbung_post" is not "Ja"?

[Dashmir82]

i think the best way to explain it is with this pictures

the first if-statemant

the second if-statemant

the third if-statemant

Can you share the actual file with us, or at least specify the names of all of these fields? Your code seems to reference more fields than those in your screenshots...

[try67]

Try this code as the custom calculation script of a separate (hidden) text field:

this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").display = display.hidden;
this.getField("Email_Adresse").display = display.hidden;
this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").display = display.hidden;
this.getField("Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson").display = display.hidden;
if (this.getField("Bewerbung_post").value != "Ja") {
    this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").display = display.visible;   
    this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").display = display.visible;
}
if (this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").value == "Ja") {
    this.getField("Email_Adresse").display = display.visible;
}
if (this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").value == "Ja") {
    this.getField("Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson").display = display.visible;
}

Here's an improved version of the code above:

this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").display = display.hidden;
this.getField("Email_Adresse").display = display.hidden;
this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").display = display.hidden;
this.getField("Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson").display = display.hidden;
if (this.getField("Bewerbung_post").value != "Ja") {
    this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").display = display.visible;   
    this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").display = display.visible;
} else {
    this.resetForm(["Bewerbung_elektronisch", "Email_Adresse", "Bewerbung_telefonisch", "Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson"]);
    this.getField("Email_Adresse").display = display.hidden;
    this.getField("Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson").display = display.hidden;
}
if (this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").value == "Ja") {
    this.getField("Email_Adresse").display = display.visible;
}
if (this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").value == "Ja") {
    this.getField("Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson").display = display.visible;
}

It works pretty well. See: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Ub-IY_81cQu0rul1Mm9PwqSIyg66n3oW

Actually, change the last part to:

if (this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").value == "Ja") {
    this.getField("Email_Adresse").display = display.visible;
} else this.resetForm(["Email_Adresse"]);
if (this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").value == "Ja") {
    this.getField("Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson").display = display.visible;
} else this.resetForm(["Telefonnummer_Kontaktperson"]);

This makes sure that if the user un-ticks those boxes, the associated text fields are cleared.

You must use something like this:

if (this.getField("Bewerbung_post").value == "Ja") {

...

} else if (this.getField("Bewerbung_elektronisch").value == "Ja") {

...

} else if (this.getField("Bewerbung_telefonisch").value == "Ja") {

...

} else {

...

}

Hi Bernd

That was my guess, but I'm not sure how to do it that way.
