How to use startWith() .

chandan31 · ‎10-30-2023

Hi All,

var wsOptions4 = 'BR';

var identifer = g_form.getValue('current_shift_identifier');

if (wsOptions4.indexOf(identifer) >= 0) {

g_form.setVisiable('test');

}

I want to use startWith() to search starting BR in the identifier 'var', can you guide me how to write the script.

Thanks,

Chandan

Try below.

var wsOptions4 = 'BR,SF,GI';
var splitis=wsOptions4.split(',');
 var identifer = g_form.getValue('current_shift_identifier');
for(var i=0;i<splitis.length;i++){
 if (identifer.substring(0,2)==splitis[i]) {
 g_form.setVisible('test',true);//true,false to show/hide
 }
}

Hi @chandan31 ,

Try below script

var wsOptions4 = 'BR, SF, GI'; 
var identifier = g_form.getValue('current_shift_identifier');
var prefixes = wsOptions4.split(', ');

var isMatch = false;

for (var i = 0; i < prefixes.length; i++) {
    if (identifier.startsWith(prefixes[i])) {
        isMatch = true;
        break; 
    }
}

if (isMatch) {
    g_form.setVisible('test', true);
}

Thanks,

Anand
