'onItemChange' is not working if we use setValue for Item in DCT

Hi ,

Using TS 6.1 on Win 2k .

When we change the value of textbox in DCT using setValue then it does not trigger 'onItemChange' event .

Following is the code that I have used :

function myFun()
{
alert ("Hai");
}

IWDatacapture.getItem("/page/pageTitle").setValue("Home Page");
IWEventRegistry.addItemHandler("page/pageTitle","onItemChange",myFun);

Could any one pls let me know , how do we trigger 'onChangeItem' event if we want to set the value of item from 'setValue'

If we manually enter the value in the textbox then i can trigger 'onItemChange'

Only manually entering value trigger the event.
you can call your function just after you update the value, there is no need to trigger the event? Ultimately when a event occurs you want to run some custom script that you can execute after setting the value in your case.

Rohit,

Not sure what you want to do but, why don't you combine the 2 functionality into one. Write one function which will set the value for page/pageTitle and same time do what you wanted to do with the fuction myFun.

Rohit,

Value could be CHANGED by a user whereas the SETTING of value is done by system internals.
