Conditional default value for catalog variable

Is it possible to force default value of a catalog variable based on another variable oflike we do in ref qual ?

For example, we create a variable set with 2 field

  type : integer value

  test : string field

If type = 1   then default value for field Test is FirstName

if type = 2 then default value for field Test is LastName

We can like create a function testDefaultValue(type) and would like to use it to define default value for field test

For reference qualifier , syntax is javascript:testDefaultValue(current.variables.type) but this doesn't seem to work for default value (log says current.variables.type is not defined)

Thanks

Why don't you write a onChange client script?

Here you go. Put this in the default value line



javascript: if(current.type==1) return 'FirstName'; else return 'Lastname';
