How to get value of choice list

[DerErik]

Hi @ all,

i need a client script (onchange) to manipulate a textfield ('name'). To read the value of a textfield ('city') is no problem, but how can i do this with my choice list? I need the actual selected value (or label) of the choice list.

Thank you for your help!

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

//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
var city;
var type;

city = g_form.getValue('city');
type = g_form.getValue('type'));

g_form.setValue('name', type + ' ' + city);
}

try this one:

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

var mycity = g_form.getValue('city');
var typeValue = g_form.getValue('category');
var typeLabel = g_form.getOption('type', typeValue).label;

g_form.setValue('name', typeLabel + ' ' + mycity);
}

you should catch the value of the field and then find the label corresponding to that value.
