On the Public Cloud, Release 4.5, I am trying to populate the start of a Text area filed on a NEW page based on certain choices made on the page itself, so I cannot use a default value. When I use the rbf_setFieldContent, the field gets populated, but the field becomes non-editable. The rbf_setFieldValue does not seem to work.
Any suggestions on how I can populate a Text Area field so that the user can add more text as needed?
rbf_setFieldContent API should only be used for view only fields like Formula & Template.
rbf_setFieldValue should be used in this scenario.
Request you to share a sample app highlighting the issue you are seeing with rbf_setFieldValue.
<script>
function jl_concreteNote()
{
var conc = document.theForm.create_reports_concrete_68043560.checked;
if(conc == true)
rbf_setFieldValue("note", "Bring J -Ring and Spread Board");
}
</script>
Will need the actual app.xml to troubleshoot further. Can you export a sample app.xml and share on this forum thread.
Unfortunately, there are too many issues with the application to successfully generate an XML file. I will go ahead and generate a CASE ticket identifying the specific zone, page, for Progress to look at. Thanks, anyway. .
Hi Tom,
Instead of using Rollbase APIs, try using tinyMCE APIs.
<script>
function jl_concreteNote() {
var conc = document.theForm.create_reports_concrete_68043560.checked;
if(conc == true)
tinyMCE.get('note').insertContent("Bring J -Ring and Spread Board");
}
</script>
It works like a charm!
