Connecting selection of radio button to a text or numeric field

Hi. I am using LiveCycle Designer 8.0 and I am trying to define object properties that will allow the selection of a radio button to populate in a numeric data field at the bottom of the page. I was able to write the script to have that happen with drop-down lists, but I can't figure out how to write the script for the radio button. I also don't know if the script is supposed to apply to the radio button itself or the numeric field where I want the result to show-up. Can you please help me with some sort of an example script? Thanks.

Hi Jen,
I would recommend that you amend your workspace in Designer. You can show/hide palettes from the Window menu.
Here are some pointers (which are optional):
This is the hierarchy palette and is very handy when working with forms. You can select objects quickly and drag objects around.
This is the Object palette, which makes it easy to drag objects onto the page.
The main space with tabs for Design View, Master Pages, XML Source (you should not need this) and Preview.
You can select objects in EITHER the page or the hierarchy view and then change properties in other palettes.
The Script Editor is very important when you start to add functionality to your form. It is visible on your screen shot, but it is limited to one line in height. So I would recommend that you drag this down so that you can see a few lines of script. The Show dropdown in the Editor allows you to look at the script in various events. In the example I posted, there is script in the click event.
Object palette (and Font & Paragraph palettes). These will allow you to make changes to various properties, depending on the object that is selected.
You will see from the screenshot that you can position and stack the palettes to suite your screen and workflow.
Now, in relation to your screenshot:
You have selected a single radio button in your group. You need to select the whole exclusion group, this is easy in the hierarchy palette.
In the Object > Binding palette you have ticked the Specify Item Values (good), but you need to edit the values to match the Display Items. For example for item "$85", the specified value should be "85".
For starters, I would recommend that you open a few of the palettes and then have a look at my example and the screenshots. Hopefully that will clear it up for you.

Is it possible to make a fillable form have variable fields - so if you select a radio button it triggers a different form field to be seen depending on which radio button is selected??

Yes, one needs to use some custom JavaScript code to control the other fields' properties.

Dynamic Select List / Radio Buttons triggering conditional display of field

Hi HTMLDB Team,
I wanted to mimic this very nice and useful HTMLDB 'select list feature' at the HTMLDB "Create Application ... from Application Export file " ... option .
ie when you hit the form that asks you to "install the application", i,e
Builder - Application >Export Import>Export Repository>Install Application
you have the the following radio Options :
Install As Application
X Reuse Application ID 401 From Export File
X Auto Assign New Application ID
X Change Application ID
New Application
The "New Application ID" field appears only when I select "Change Application ID" radio option. That great and that's exactly what I want.
How do you do that ?
I am currently using a select list instead of radio list. It's the same thing ... I
I tried " many options of the "select list with redirect .... with submit .... but I was not successfful. All I am trying to achieve is to offer a list of departments ... but when the user select "other", I want to show a text field for the user to type in the "other Department" ... without losing what I had already entered in the form previously and without actually Submitting the form . I still have other fields to enter after the select list .
Is that possible with pure HTMLDB ?
Or do I have to craft up some Javascript .
I'd prefer pure HTMLDB .. I do not want to use javascript, to avoin a maintenance nightmare once I submit the code to other developers ...
Can you pls help ?
Thanks a lot.

Hello,
Take a look at these built in javascript function
they should give you what you want.
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=11933:39
CarlCarl,
if I understand it right, these functions are already built in Apex 2.2.1.
I need to show an item with label when user selects certain radio button. This sounds like the opposite to f_Hide_On_Value_Item_Row function.
Can this task be done with apex built-in javascript functionality at this moment?
Thanks

How do you grey out a radio button if a text field is blank in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

How do you grey out a radio button if a text field is blank in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?
So this what I'm trying to do:
(     )   |TEXT FIELD|
(     )   |TEXT FIELD|
(     )   |                  |
(     )   |TEXT FIELD|
I have a radio button: (     )
and a text field: |TEXT FIELD|
The third text field is blank, and I would like for the radio button next to it greyed out (user can't click on it) since the text field is blank. Is this possible to achieve? I'm assuming I'll have to use javascript, but what would the code be and would it be entered in the javascript editor for the text field or the radio button?
Thanks in advance guys

Hey, thanks, but it didn't work
I have the text fields as read only. Could that be why it's not working? Should I make the fields not read only?
Thanks,

Linking a radio button to a text field in a pdf form

Forgive my ignorance but does anyone know how to link a radio button to a text field in an Acobat pdf form?
I have a series of 4 radio buttons. If you click on one of them I would like to activate a text field which you then have to fill in. In addition it would be good to have it so that if you don't click on the radio button you're not able to fill in the associated text box.
I am a designer not a programmer so I don't know much about javascript. Can anyone help?
Many thanks

You might want to look at Hiding and Showing Form Fields by Thom Parker. You might also want to clear the text field when the radio button changes.

Selection screen: Radio button

HI,
I want to create a report with the selection screen.
In the selection screen. there are two radio button under which there are two fields in each of it. Like Below
Radio Button 1
Field 1
Field 2
Radio Button 2
Field 3
Field 4
if the User select the first radio button then Field 1 & 2 should be available for input and field 3 & 4 in the other radio button should not be available for input. which means it should be grayed out. Vice versa.
Where do i need to modify the screen parameter for the fields?..
Please suggest me a way forward
Regards
Suresh Kumar

Run time change # of radio button and boolean text

does Labview 8 support run time programmically change number of radio button and boolean text for each radio button?
Thanks,
DG

You can also customize a slide control to look like radio buttons. You can control the text labels and the number of element through a property (by changing the scale properties). If you really want it to look like radio buttons, you can try ripping the images from the dialog radio button. Also, to save some time, you can get the OpenG buttons package, which includes a slide customized to look like radio buttons. The main problem with this is that changing the number of items does not change the size of the control and that makes the dot filling the radio buttons look compressed.
Another option is to create an array of radio buttons, but then you will have to handle the logic yourself.

How to display a text field if yes selected in radio button

Does anyone know how to hide/show a text field based upon a
radio button selection? What I want to do is ask a question with
yes or no as radio buttons. Then, if the user selects "YES" I want
to display a required text field. If the user click no, there isn't
a need for the text field.

Try this...
<html>
<head>
</head>
<script>
function ShowField(){document.MyForm.MyField.style.display =
"inline";}
</script>
<body>
<form name="MyForm">
<input type="radio" name="MyCheckBox"
onClick="ShowField()">
<input type="text" style="display: none"
name="MyField">
</form>
</body>
</html>

How can I select a radio button in a table regarding the data in the cells?

Hi everyone
This is the issue: I need to select the RadioButton which is in a table with data related to transfers in the cells next to it, so I need to select the correct radio regarding the data next to it.
This is the whole process: First I go to the Add Recurring Transfer section and select the parameters of the transfer (Accounts, date, amount, months etc), then with VB code I capture those parameters from the page and store them into Global variables for further usage on my E-tester script.
Right after that I need to select the radiobutton regarding the data of the transfer that I already created in order to delete it or modify it (Please see Attachment selectradio1.jpg)
So How can I move along the table and compare each cell with the variables that I created with the transfer information, so when I finish comparing a row cell by cell and if all the comparison match well in that row, I could select the radiobutton of the row.
Note: Second Attachment selectradio2.jpg shows the source code of the table...If you need more info please let me know
Could you please help me with this problem?? I'm Kind of frustrated with this issue jejeje

Here is an example. I uploaded mock html so that you can actually try this code. I think this does exactly what you are asking.
Private Sub RSWVBAPage_afterPlay()
Dim tbl As HTMLTable
Dim tblRow As HTMLTableRow
Dim tblCell As HTMLTableCell
Dim strValue As String
Dim rButton As HTMLInputElement
' ******** This would be your global variable. I put this so that values are seperated by a semicolin you can use what ever format works for you.
strValue = "03/22/2008;03/22/2008;*************1977;*************1977;$25.25;Jan, Jun, Jul, Dec"
' Strip out the ; for inner text comparison
strValue = Replace(strValue, ";", "")
' This will get the table but can be modifoed to be more specific
Set tbl = RSWApp.om.FindElement(, "TABLE")
' This loops through all the rows in the table until a match to the strValue is found
' then clicks the radio button. Findelements allows you to specify a root element
' once the correct root row is found, FindElemets can get the correct radio button
For Each tblRow In tbl.rows
  If tblRow.innerText = strValue Then
    Set rButton = RSWApp.om.FindElement("account", "INPUT", "NAME", , , tblRow)
     rButton.click
   End If
Next
End Sub
I also uploaded the script I created. You should be able to run it and see how it works.
This should get you going.

How to set a default pre-select for radio buttons?

Hi
I have some text form fields that I've set up to display some paired variables stored in a .txt file. When the swf loads, the form fields are populated with the text.
I've also set it up so that if you change the text and hit a submit button, the .txt file gets updated.
I'm now tryng to set it up so that I can store radio button selections in the .txt file too.
I've started doing it a certain way, but am wondering if there is a more straightforward way of doing ?
Here's what I've done...
I've set up the butttons to spit out "on" or "off" depending on the selection, and apply that to the variable that gets stored.
Now, in the same way I loaded the variables into the text form fields when the swf is refreshed, I want to load the on/off variable, and then somehow apply it to the radio buttons so that one of them is pre-selected.
So my questions are a) how do I take that loaded variable, and use an if statement to make it pre-select the button, and b) is there a simpler way to pre-select a button based on an external variable?
Thanks
Shaun

Nevermind guys - I did it using the 'rb_on.selected' command on the "on" radio button if the .txt file variable was "on", else the "off" radio button is selected.
Thanks for taking a look though!
Shaun

Using radio button instead of text field

Hi. I need to convert a text field for radio button. The conversion is as follows: the user will choose one of three options on the radio button (gif, png and jpeg). If the user chooses the image format such as jpeg, for example, how should I put in value? Put image/jpeg and does not work. This text field belongs to a form that was generated automatically by a WebService Data Control. Thanks

remove the text field.
drag and drop that attribute from data control, choose selectOneRadio
in the wizard window, select fixed list and select this particular attribute and then type gif, png and jpeg one by one.
in the pagedef it would be something like below:
    <list IterBinding="myIterator0" id="image" DTSupportsMRU="false"
          StaticList="true">
      <AttrNames>
        <Item Value="image"/>
      </AttrNames>
      <ValueList>
        <Item Value="gif"/>
        <Item Value="png"/>
        <Item Value="jpeg"/>
      </ValueList>
    </list>whatever you select that values goes to db.

Use 3 button or property to change selection of radio buttons?

Hi all,
I have LV 7.1 and am trying to write a process that allows the user to select the next action following the execution of several Case Structure steps. The VI is basically thus: (sorry I can't cut-n-paste a graphic, it's on another pc.)
While loop:--->radio button (Manual, Cycle, Auto Test)----> Case Structure (Manual, Cycle, Auto Test)--->Nested Case Structure within the "Auto Test" Case above with 13 cases ("0" to "12")
On case "12" of the nested case structure, I want to provide a 3-button dialog box (or something that works) which allows the user to select the next test mode (i.e. the 1st case structure: "Manual", "Cycle", "Auto Test"). I can't figure out how to send anything that the property node "Value" of the radio button can use for this selection. When I create an indicator to see what is sent from the 3-button, it shows ("Left", "Center", or "Right") "Button" strings. The radio button "Value" property node needs an enum. The labels on the 3-button don't seem have any consequence.
Any Suggestions?
Best Regards,
Ed

Dev,
Thanks for the reply. I experimented with the Property Node and Radio Button control extensively and figured out my problem. It had to do with the difference between Labels, Captions, and Boolean Text. I believe I had a caption on one of my buttons rather than the label, so the property node didn't see it as an option. Through all the help screens that had the option of explaining this to me, it wasn't until I had fixed the problem before I found one that addressed the differences between those terms. I'll attach my experiment vi (created with LV 7.1) for anyone like myself (non-programmer, inexperienced LabVIEW'er) that would like to see the basic function.
