Hello all, I'm well on my way to having my first working TG app. TG is incredibly easy to pick up!! Thanks to everyone on the list who's helped me out so far.
I think my last question before declaring victory has more to do with javascript than TG, but it does involve some TG widget magic so here goes. I know this must be easy, if you already know how to do it ;-) I'd like to have some client-side code update a TG Label widget whenever a TG textfield widget changes its contents. (Specifically, I have two textfields which contain numbers, and I want the label next to them to always show the correct sum of the numbers in the two fields. So, seems like I need some client-side async javascript magic) Reading the TG 1.0 docs (Dynamic Widget stuff) helps but I'm a bit stumped, as I'm not really a javascript developer yet. I'm fiddling with js onchange and onblur events, but I'm just stabbing in the dark at how to retrieve the contents of a widget and do anything with it once I'm in the called function. Note I'd like all this to happen on the client without going thru the TG server, for performance reasons. Does anyone have a code snippet somewhere that will asynchronously update a TG label widget based on the content of textfields on a form? If I can just see how it's supposed to be done, I'm sure I won't have trouble getting it into my little app. in pseudocode I think what I want is: num1 = widget.textfield1 contents num2 = widget.textfield2 contents sum = num1 + num2 widget.label.updateText(str(sum)) Thanks to anyone who can shed light, I very much appreciate the help!
