Cannot seem to get any Native Javascript Funcions to work [message #200415]

I am trying to write an Expression to control Visibility (see below).
I cannot seem to get any Native Javascript Funcions to work.
What am I doing wrong.

Here is the error message tha I am getting:
There are errors evaluating script "row["HOME_PHONE"].toString()=="""

I have also tried simple things like row["HOME_PHONE"].length()==0

The problem actually started when I have tried row["HOME_PHONE"]=="" and
the row stayed visible. I am sure there is no data in the field. My data
source is an Oracle table.

Hi Shlomo,
The scripts you lists are invalid.
"row["HOME_PHONE"].toString()=="""---->The function toString(){natvie code
for String.toString} can not be used as the left-hand side of assignment or
as an operand of ++ or -- operator.
" row["HOME_PHONE"].length()==0"-----> length is not a function at all. You
can use row["HOME_PHONE"].length attribute to refer its length attribute.
"row["HOME_PHONE"]=="""----->Put value on result set row is not supported.
So if you want to get your target, maybe you could try this:
if(row["HOME_PHONE"]!= null )
"";
Wish it could work.

Thanks
Mingxia
