Issue trying to action URL query string

[Alexander Bautz]

Hi,
I’m glad you like DFFS!

You have misunderstood this functionality a bit as the built in functionality is used if you want to use the URL parameter as a trigger for a DFFS rule.

What you try to do can easily be done with a line of code in the Custom JS textarea.

First change your “heading” like this:

<p>Form Type: <span id='formTypePlaceholder'></span></p>

Then add this to the Custom JS textarea:

$("#formTypePlaceholder").html(GetUrlKeyValue("frmtype"));

Ah! OK, I get it now. Actually I was trying to work out how to create a rule – the display part was just me taking small steps. However, the code you’ve given is very useful as it points me in the right direction to be able to do some other automation on the form now I can make the connection between the utility functions and the display via JQuery.

I’ve now also managed to get the form to switch automatically by creating a rule that runs on form ready and sets the field that controls the display from {url:frmtype}.

So great stuff. Thanks. I’ll be putting in a request to our programme team to get a license key shortly.

Regards, Julian.

I’m glad it worked out.
