FormAPI Help P{lease

Can we use command buttons on a Datacapture template? For Example when a user selects some items in a dropdown list box and clicks a button ">>" , the selected items move into another dropdown listbox?

The shoebox.js example provided by Interwoven shows how to set up an IWEventRegistry.addItemHandler for the dropdown.

Do you mean the shoescript.js script that is used in the FormAPI demo?

Yes. There are a number of useful techniques illustrated there. It got me going in the right direction when I had to create a DCT with a set of three inter-related dropdowns... a change in the first dropdown selection triggered the loading of an appropriate set of options in a second related droptdown (and a few other related actions). It also is a good demo of some of the things you can control at DCR save timej, changing field attibutes...

cool i got it working, thanks! but now i need to get it to work within a replicant and am not having any luck. there seems to be a problem with replicant addresses. it will work for the first replicant but not any others. any ideas?

function getTypeValue()
{
var typeItem = IWDatacapture.getItem("/web_ad/ad_loc[1-99]/which_homepage");
var typeIndex = typeItem.getValue();
var typeOptions = typeItem.getOptions();
return typeOptions[typeIndex].value;
}
