Multiple Choice

Posted by ChrisMBS - Apr 22 ’13 at 07:36

I located the code for getting multiple choice values in your forum. In the example though you've hardcoded the checkbox index.

How do I get the index of the checkbox that is selected and pass it through to the code?

FD Example

var checkboxIndex = 2;
fd.field('MultiChoice').control()._el()
  .find('input[type="checkbox"]').eq(checkboxIndex)
  .is(':checked');

Pass in selected checkbox index

var checkboxIndex = <<MultiChoiceSelected>>;
fd.field('MultiChoice').control()._el()
  .find('input[type="checkbox"]').eq(checkboxIndex)
  .is(':checked');

  You can iterate through all options and find selected. Here is an example:

  $.each(fd.field('Checkboxes').control()._el()
    .find('input[type="checkbox"]'), function(i, el) 
  {
    if ($(this).is(':checked')) {
      alert(i + ' option is selected');
    }
  });

  I want to run some actions IF a certain checkbox in a multi-selection input type .is(':checked based on the value of that checkbox?

  I cannot figure out how to check for the value match

   

  my attempt:

  window.$('.fd_field[fd_name="architect"]').hide();

  fd.field('contractType').control().change(function(){

  if (fd.field('contractType').control()._el().find('input[type="checkbox"]').eq('Rental Agreement').is(':checked')) {

  window.$('.fd_field[fd_name="architect"]').show();

  fd.field('architect').title().required(true);

  } else {

  window.$('.fd_field[fd_name="architect"]').hide();

  fd.field('architect').title().required(false);

  }

  });

   

  PS> i could not get your iteration example to work.

  window.$.each(fd.field('contractType').control()._el()

  .find('input[type="checkbox"]'), function(i, el)

  {

  if ($(this).is(':checked')) {

  alert(i + ' option is selected');

  }

  });

  thanks!
