FormAPI - Setting Container value using callserver

System

Hi,

I have a container which contain 5 items. OnITemChange event of Item 1 , I am calling perl script using callserver.

no I want to set some value in 2nd Item of same container but i unable to do this ..

[PHP]
function populateFileSize(filesize)
{
//working
IWDatacapture.getItem("/graphics/graphic[1]/caption").setValue(filesize);
// not working
IWDatacapture.getItem("/graphics/graphic/caption").setValue(filesize);

}


[/PHP]


Problem : how do i know which container has sent a request so that i set the value in same container ...

Can we calculate container no using form API so that i can pass it as paramater and set it back ?


Thanks
Vinay

I suggest you spend a bit more time reading the FormAPI manual and searching the forums for examples of code used for event handlers. Specifically you want to look at the default parameter provided to event handler functions when called.
