Please describe your requirement as what exactly you want to do. There might be some other ways to do things.

You can use CGI_info pre/post_tagtable_html attributes to *inject* your Javascript into Workflow Instantiation Form. Like that:[HTML]my $javascript = qq(
<script type="text/javascript">
function doSomething() {
alert("Drink it!");
}
</script>
);

CGI_info(
pre_tagtable_html => $javascript,
# post_tagtable_html => ,
);

TAG_info(
YourItem =>
[ html => "Tea" ,
label => "Your Label",
error_msg => 'Whatever...',
is_required => 'false',
],
);[/html]

Hi ISCBorisB,

I have tried to use that code in my wft file, but when i am using document.write() method to dispaly a text box, it is displaying in a new window. But i want to disaply that in the same window where the wft fileds are shown.

Don't use write then. Find another way. For example, declare your boxes upfront within "TAG_info" and toggle their visibility on
radio button *Clicks*.

Hi ISCBorisB,

That is the code i am looking for and i am doing R&D, but i am unable to get it done. Can you give me the pseudo code so that it would be easier for me.

See if you can leverage something like the following for your purposes[html]my $javascript = qq(<script type="text/javascript">
function toggleTA(flag) {
document.getElementById("TA001").style.display = (flag)? '' : 'none';
}
</script>);

CGI_info(
pre_tagtable_html => $javascript,
);

TAG_info(
YourButtons =>
[ html => qq(
On
Off
),
is_required => 'false',
],
YourArea =>
[ html => qq(),
is_required => 'false',
],
);[/html]
