Check All/Clear All HTML Buttons not showing in 10.2.0.834

Forms

Updated April 24, 2017

asked on April 21, 2017

In forms 10.1 I have a form with a "check all" or "clear all" for a section of checkboxes that worked perfectly; however, I'm testing it in our DEV environment and the copied form's buttons are not showing now - only the html code.

<p><button onclick="checkAll()" type="button">Check All</button>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<button onclick="clearAll()" type="button">Clear All</button>.<br></p>

Same in both environments

Your markup doesn't work for me. However, if I convert the encoded characters back to their regular versions, it works. Try it by copy/pasting this into your form:

<button onclick="checkAll()" type="button">Check All</button><button onclick="clearAll()" type="button">Clear All</button>

A coworker assisted me in cleaning up the code. I put the original version of the code in 10.1 and it adds all the garbage to it. So maybe not an issue for 10.2 - just need to know that we will need to clean up the garbage inserted by 10.1 for our current forms to work in 10.2.

Thanks.

No problem.

By the way, the stuff it inserts isn't actually garbage. It needs to encode special characters in a certain way to be able to send that data back to the server. That's why you see < get replaced by < for example. You can see more examples of HTML encoding here.

Of course, I can't comment on why your buttons broke. Maybe LF can comment on that.

Does that show on the actual browser or on the Layout. If it's on the Layout, it might just be the way it's shown to you, but it might show correctly on the browser.
