else if condition is not working for the "None" value of variable(Variable type: "select box")

[Khaja Shaik]

Hi All,

Hope you are doing well!!

I have the below requirement.

I have a variable "Access type", variable type is Select box(Include none is true) and choices are 1) Single, 2) Group.

Point 1: If you select the choice as "Single"  a new variable "Single access" is visible, mandatory and add the choices as mentioned in the below code.

Point 2: If you select the choice as "Group" a new variable "Group access" is visible, mandatory and add the choices as mentioned in the below code.

Point 3: If you select the choice as "None" after selecting point 1or point 2, it should clear the point 1 or point 2 value and hide the variables "Single access" or "Group access".

I have created below onChange client script for this requirement. The point 1 and point 2 is working fine but point 3(none condition) is not working. Please correct my below code if its wrong.

OnChange client script Code:

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

//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
if (newValue == 'Single') {
g_form.setVisible('single_access ', true);
g_form.setMandatory('group_access', true);

g_form.clearValue('group_access');
g_form.setMandatory('group_access', false);
g_form.setVisible('group_access', false);

g_form.addOption('single_access', 'Teams', 'Teams', 1);
g_form.addOption('single_access', 'Email', 'Email', 2);
g_form.addOption('single_access', 'Outlook', 'Outlook', 3);
g_form.addOption('single_access', 'Data', 'Data', 4);

} else if (newValue == 'group_access') {
g_form.setVisible('group_access', true);
g_form.setMandatory('group_access', true);

g_form.clearValue('single_access');
g_form.setMandatory('single_access', false);
g_form.setVisible('single_access', false);

g_form.addOption('group_access', 'Grp1', 'Grp1', 1);
g_form.addOption('group_access', 'Grp2', 'Grp2', 2);
g_form.addOption('group_access', 'Grp3', 'Grp3', 3);
g_form.addOption('group_access', 'Grp4', 'Grp4', 4);

} else if(newValue == ''{ //new value is 'none' This part is not working

g_form.clearValue('single_access');
g_form.clearValue('group_access');
g_form.setMandatory('group_access', false);
g_form.setMandatory('single_access', false);
g_form.setVisible('group_access', false);
g_form.setVisible('single_access', false);

}

}

Thanks! in advance

@Khaja Shaik  Please modify as below,

You already have newValue == ‘’ and you can declare those within this loop. 

if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
g_form.clearValue('single_access');
g_form.clearValue('group_access');
g_form.setMandatory('group_access', false);
g_form.setMandatory('single_access', false);
g_form.setDisplay('group_access', false);
g_form.setVisible('single_access', false);
}

if (newValue == 'Single') {
g_form.setVisible('single_access ', true);
g_form.setMandatory('group_access', true);

g_form.clearValue('group_access');
g_form.setMandatory('group_access', false);
g_form.setVisible('group_access', false);

g_form.addOption('single_access', 'Teams', 'Teams', 1);
g_form.addOption('single_access', 'Email', 'Email', 2);
g_form.addOption('single_access', 'Outlook', 'Outlook', 3);
g_form.addOption('single_access', 'Data', 'Data', 4);

} else if (newValue == 'group_access') {
g_form.setVisible('group_access', true);
g_form.setMandatory('group_access', true);

g_form.clearValue('single_access');
g_form.setMandatory('single_access', false);
g_form.setVisible('single_access', false);

g_form.addOption('group_access', 'Grp1', 'Grp1', 1);
g_form.addOption('group_access', 'Grp2', 'Grp2', 2);
g_form.addOption('group_access', 'Grp3', 'Grp3', 3);
g_form.addOption('group_access', 'Grp4', 'Grp4', 4);

}

If you want it to in your ‘If and Else’ statement, then you have it as below,

if (isLoading) {
return;
}

The reason for last condition not working is because it’s getting returned as the syntax is same and  used twice.

Note : setVisible() will create spaces instead using setDisplay().

Hi @Sujatha V M, 

Thank you very much for your quick response. Now it is working fine. 

Thank you once again!

Hi @Sujatha V M, 

Please help me with the below code. Here we have to show the below variables(Mentioned in the code) 6 times and I have created 6 OnChange client scripts as mentioned below, all the client scripts are working fine but 5th client script not working. Please see the below script and correct if I made any mistake.

Thanks!! in advance.

This OnChange client script is created on the variable "do_you_need_access_to_other_environments_and_or_technology_4" This is the check box.

if (newValue == 'false') {

g_form.setMandatory('environment_5', false);
g_form.setMandatory('technology_5', false);

g_form.clearValue('environment_5');
g_form.clearValue('technology_5');
g_form.setDisplay('do_you_need_access_to_other_environments_and_or_technology_6', false); //This is the check box
g_form.setDisplay('environment_5', false);
g_form.setDisplay('technology_5', false);
g_form.setDisplay('do_you_need_access_to_other_environments_and_or_technology_6', false); //This is the check box
return;
}

//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
if (newValue == 'true') {
g_form.setMandatory('environment_5', true);
g_form.setMandatory('technology_5', true);
g_form.setDisplay('environment_5', true);
g_form.setDisplay('technology_5', true);
g_form.setDisplay('do_you_need_access_to_other_environments_and_or_technology_6', true); //This is the check box
g_form.addOption('environment_5', 'Production', 'Production', 1);
g_form.addOption('environment_5', 'Test', 'Test', 2);
g_form.addOption('environment_5', 'test2', 'test2', 3);
g_form.addOption('environment_5', 'UAT', 'UAT', 4);

g_form.addOption('technology_5', 'tech1', 'tech1', 1);
g_form.addOption('technology_5', 'tech2', 'tech2', 2);

}

}

@Khaja Shaik  It seems the "Return" value is stopping the execution from not setting it. Can you try the below,

if (isLoading ) {

return;
}

if(newValue == 'true'{

g_form.setMandatory('environment_5', true);
g_form.setMandatory('technology_5', true);
g_form.setDisplay('environment_5', true);
g_form.setDisplay('technology_5', true);
g_form.setDisplay('do_you_need_access_to_other_environments_and_or_technology_6', true); //This is the check box
g_form.addOption('environment_5', 'Production', 'Production', 1);
g_form.addOption('environment_5', 'Test', 'Test', 2);
g_form.addOption('environment_5', 'test2', 'test2', 3);
g_form.addOption('environment_5', 'UAT', 'UAT', 4);

g_form.addOption('technology_5', 'tech1', 'tech1', 1);
g_form.addOption('technology_5', 'tech2', 'tech2', 2);

}

else {

g_form.setMandatory('environment_5', false);
g_form.setMandatory('technology_5', false);

g_form.clearValue('environment_5');
g_form.clearValue('technology_5');
g_form.setDisplay('do_you_need_access_to_other_environments_and_or_technology_6', false); //This is the check box
g_form.setDisplay('environment_5', false);
g_form.setDisplay('technology_5', false);
g_form.setDisplay('do_you_need_access_to_other_environments_and_or_technology_6', false); //This is the check box

}

Do try and let me know.
