Retrieve data selected from checkboxes

alan6

Hi,

 

I am looking to retrieve data selected from checkboxes in below code.

When user selects multiple checkbox’s that are displayed by hiCreateToggleField, How can I retrieve the selected checkbox data?

Can you please provide an example.

 Thanks!

names = '("Dan" "Jim" "Joe" "Tim")

listN = '("Names")

choices=foreach(mapcar elem names list(stringToSymbol(elem) elem))

 

mytoggle = hiCreateToggleField(

?name 'toppings

?prompt "Names"

?choices choices

?itemsPerRow 1

); end hiCreateToggleField

 

TabField = hiCreateTabField(

?name 'TabField

?pageScroller nil

?fields list(

list(

list( mytoggle 5:10 230:50 55 )

)

)

?tabPlacement 'top

?callback 'SampleTabFieldCB

?tabs listN

);end hiCreateTabField

 

 

TabFieldForm = hiCreateAppForm(

?name 'TabFieldForm

?formTitle "Tab Field Form"

?fields list( list( TabField 10:10 500:535 ))

?buttonLayout 'OKCancelApply

?formType 'nonOptions

;?unmapAfterCBt

?initialSize t

);end hiCreateAppForm

hiDisplayForm(TabFieldForm)

  • If you do:

    TabFieldForm->TabField->page_Names->toppings->value

    you'll get:

    (nil t t nil)

    (I had Jim and Joe checked).

    You could get the names of the boxes selected by doing:

    selected=foreach(mapcan (name value) names TabFieldForm->TabField->page_Names->toppings->value
      when(value list(name))
    )

    This would return:

    ("Jim" "Joe")

    The foreach mapcan works by iterating over the list of names and the list of boolean values, and then retuning the name only if the checkbox was selected.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
