Only one checkbox can be checked

[prabhmeet]

Hi,

I am a newbie and not too good in scripting.

I am creating a Catalog item and there I have 2 check boxes, I want that only one can be selected at a time.

I know this can be done if I create radio buttons but I have been specifically asked to create checkboxes.

This is the onChange Client Script on function variable.

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

//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

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

This is the onChange Client Script on menu variable.

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

//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

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

Can anyone help with the script?

Can you mark my answer as correct/helpful and close the thread.

Prabhmeet is right! When coding for checkboxes in a catalog item, a checkbox variable takes a javascript boolean (so true or false, without quotations).

It looks like you've spelt "function" wrong in your latest post of the code for the menu script. Probably should be:

g_form.setValue('function', false); instead of 'fuction'.

You could use two onChange scripts - one for "Menu" and the other for "Function".  Below is an example of the script you can use in the "Menu" onChange script that will make "Function" read-only:

if (newValue == 'true') {
     g_form.setDisabled('function', true);

//This allows the end-user to change their selection on the form (if applicable).
} else if (newValue == 'false') {
     g_form.setDisabled('function', false);

}

This same script can be applied to the onChange script for "Function", but it would use 'menu' (instead of 'function').
