Does Insert icon (+) generate any event.

Sachin_Gajanan

Hello everybody,

I wanted to know whether the insert icon "+" generates any event.

Suppose in a DCT we specify one container to be having min="1" and max="8" and combination="and" , and suppose that the container is having three instances of text boxes.
<container name="address" location="address" min="1" max="8" combination="and">
<item name="user" pathid="user">
<text/>
</tem>
<item name="id" pathid="id">
<text/>
</tem>
<item name="pwd" pathid="pwd">
<text/>
</tem>
</container>

So that after filling the values in the first replicant instances, the insert icon "+" will be active and will be so till the 7 replcant.and once the 8 replicant is added the insert icon "+" is no more active but the delete icon "x" is active

My question is when we click the "+" does it generate any event, i want to show an alert box when the insert icon is pressed 7 times indicating that the user can only add one more replicant.

The user might enter values in the first replicant and go without entering any values till the 7 replicant, so that at that time when he presses the insert icon i want to show an alert box telling this is the last replicant allowed.

Can any body suggest me a solution please , i would be thankful, its a bit urgent.
thanks

Sachin.

If you're running 6.5 - yes, there is an event that you can place a handler on - read the FormAPI manual.
If you're running 6.1 or earlier - no, there is no event - you might be able to hack something, but it would be better / simpler (in the long run, if not the short run) to upgrade.
