Split is not working in BIRT 2.3.1

Natty77

Hi,

I am migrating the BIRT report from 2.1.0 to 2.3.1.

There are some custom JavaScript which are called to format the TOC. But the split which I am using is not giving me proper length. What I am doing is I have string like (1, 1.1, 1.1.1) which i am spliting on "." and checking the length. If the length is 0 then add 3 mm padding else add padding based on the length here is the code.

var val = row["num"];
splitt = val.split(".");
len = splitt.lenght;

if(len==1) padding = 3;
else if(len == 2) padding = 9;
else if(len == 3) padding = 12;
this.getStyle().paddingLeft = padding + "mm";

This code is in the DataItem's onCreate event.

When I have added some println statments with in the code I found that the len is coming 0 for any value. I even tried to access the value as an array element but it is giving me undefined.

Hi Natty77,

This may just be a typo in your post, but the first thing I see is that "length" is misspelled on the line, "len = splitt.lenght;". Figured it was worth mentioning just in case.
