Client Script to auto set checkbox if other checkbox is checked

[Brandon R1]

I'm needing a Catalog Client Script that will automatically place a checkmark in a checkbox variable B when checkbox variable A is check marked.

This probably sounds relatively easy but I am not a heavy coder and not sure where to start.

Thanks,

Brandon

Could probably do an onChange client script tied to the first checkbox. Then test if the first checkbox is true. Something like the below should work.

if (g_form.getValue('fieldName') == true){

g_form.setValue('secondField',true);

}

You can do it like this:

Script:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
	if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
		return;
	}

	if(newValue == true){
		g_form.setValue('checkBoxB', true);
	}

}

Thanks but this did not work. Once I placed a checkmark in the checkbox variable A, checkbox variable B did not automatically get a checkmark.

You will need to add '' around the true since this is not a boolean. 

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
return;
}

if(newValue == 'true'){
g_form.setValue('checkBoxB', 'true');
}

}

Try this and see what you get
