Dear All
I want to create a dynaform. But the dynaform should show different buttons depending on the days of a leave request. For example, if this is a 1-day leave request, it should show "approve" in the supervisor. However if this leave is 3 or more days, then it should show "Agree" in the "supervisor" and request then be sent to the manager and show "Approve" button. How can I do this? Should I write a trigger ?

Hi.

I suggest you to use JavaScript to manipulate DynaForm Controls.

Hi,

You can use two way javascript or trigger
For example with trigger you can do like this:

Code: Select all

//PHP CODE
@@hidden_js = '';
if(@@remain == 1){
	@@hidden_js .= '
		$("#button_1").hide();
	';
}
else if(@@remain == 2){
	@@hidden_js .= '
		$("#button_2").hide();
	';
}
else if(@@remain == 3){
	@@hidden_js .= '
		$("#button_3").hide();
	';
}

Now you must create a hidden field in your dynaform with "hidden_js" name and with the bellow javascript code:

Code: Select all

$("document").ready( function(){
	if($('#hidden_js').getValue() != '')
		eval($('#hidden_js').getValue());
});

Hi
Thanks for reply. I have another question. Can I add javascript code in trigger ? I tried echo '<script>.... </script>', but it did't work.

Hi,

You can't use script tag in your trigger and it's not recommended.
For use javascript code in trigger you can do like above post.
