Returning a value to DCT from a CGI Callout

Hi,

I have an item in a DCT which is a CGI Callout. The actual CGI contains a form with a collection of radio buttons. Eventually I want to have a CGI screen which displays thumbnail images.

I can get the CGI screen to render, but I am unsure how I should return the radio option value chosen back into the field of the DCT. I have looked at the Forms Publisher manual and that has an example for the a select field and not a radio button.

Any hints or tips will be much appreciated

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Once you have got the value of the selected radio then you can write the value back into an item which has a callout button rendered beside it using the parent frame ,accessing the item and setting the value in that item.

Code will something like this :-
var pFrame = top.opener.parent.getScriptFrame();
pFrame.IWDatacapture.getItem(itemName).setValue(SelectedRadioValue);

Thanks,
