that controls one or more dynamic elements within a work object form or
flow action form. INPUT-FORMAT> C-2526
This form supports the first of two configuration steps:
- Use the Client Event Editor to associate client-side event
processing with a user input field on a form. This field is known as
the controlling field.
- Later, in the Field, Label, or Section Include panel for at least
one element on the same flow action or work object form, set the
Visible When? field or Refresh When?

Other Condition. B-21692 These are
known as the controlled elements. Specify a condition and check
the Run on Client? box. See Implementing dynamic form actions and the
Client Event Editor. C-1990
- You can repeat step 2 for multiple elements. The conditions may
vary.
Choosing the
Event
Use the Client Event Editor to associate an event with the value
that the user enters into an input field for a property.
Consider the control rule that is to be used to present the
controlling property. This rule may be identified in the
Format field of the panel.
Select a value for the Event field based on the
runtime presentation of the property:

Description
|
OnChange
|
To associate an event with properties presented as a text
box, text area, or selection list (that is, <INPUT
TYPE="TEXT"... >, <INPUT
TYPE="TEXTAREA"> or <INPUT
TYPE="SELECT" >). The event occurs when
the contents of the input field changes. The OnChange event
is most useful is for selection lists: by using
OnChange rather than OnBlur, the
action can occur immediately. BUG-3298

simple Java expression that can be evaluated by JavaScript. For
example, changing the property value may cause multiple sections to
refresh. GRP-224Refresh This Section — To cause a single
section to be refreshed and redrawn dynamically, based on the value
of this controlling property. The updated form may contain
different values supplied by an activity.
Activity
fields
If you selected Refresh This Section for the
Action field, you can identify the Activity
Name key part of an activity that may affect the content of
the section to be redrawn. To find the activity at runtime, the system
uses the Applies To class of this rule with rule
resolution.
Select an activity that performs only computations and does not
send HTML or XML code to the workstation.
If the activity requires input parameters, click Params and enter literal constants for input
parameters.
