Set visibility at runtime with Javascript [message #253478]

Fri, 24 August 2007 19:12

Eclipse User

Hi,

I would like to set the visibility of a table at runtime by using
javascript.
Is there any function I should use?

Please advise,

Thank you very much,

Neil

Neil,

1. set the id for the table to 'myTable' (through Table-Bookmark).

2. create new Style named myStyle with 'Text Block' set to Block and
assign it to this table

3. insert a Text element to the table and use HTML formating to write down:
<script>
// SETS THE TABLE VISIBILITY TO VISIBLE
//document.getElementById('myTable').style.display = 'block';
// SETS THE TABLE VISIBILITY TO UNVISIBLE
document.getElementById('myTable').style.display = 'none';
</script>

Pretty neat way of doing this. You can also use (DEAPI/SimpleDE API
2.2) like this. In the table:

importPackage(Packages.org.eclipse.birt.report.model.api.sim pleapi);

var hr = SimpleElementFactory.getInstance().createHideRule();
hr.setFormat("all");
hr.setValueExpr("true");
this.addHideRule(hr);

The value expression can be anything that you add in the visibility
property.

Hi Jason,

Can you give us an example where a component like a table or chart is
hidden upon clicking a hyper link.

Also once we assign a book mark to an element can it be referenced like
in nor mal javascript by using the statement
document.getElementById(bookMarkName).

Thanks.

Alex's approach is probably best if you do not want to reload the
report. Attached is example using his method.

Thanks Jason,

I am having problem focusing on the toggled component like a chart in
Alex's example i.e when the chart is displayed I would like the control to
be there.

Can you please let me know?

Thanks.
