I make this on the past but now the link does not accept variables.

¿Did someting change?

I got the entire URL on a field then I tell the Custom HTML by code to use the value on the field, cause yo cannot use variables on fix URL.

But the Code just send the value empty.

Example:

<a href="{/dataset/URLPDFConvenio}" target="_blank"><b><span style="font-size: 12px;">Document</span></b></a>

Is the "URLPDFConvenio" field being populated from an earlier task or Workflow or during the same task? 

Because those {/dataset/VARIABLE} functions to populate values into fields and HTML are processed when the form is loaded, and not updated when updates happen to the fields, so if the "URLPDFConvenio" field is being populated or changing during this task, it isn't being updated into the HTML.

Hi Matthew,

 

To discard that situation, i test it with a default value on field URL.

And still dont pass the value to the Hyperlink.

So i think the syntax on code got to be the issue.

A default value in the field is still being populated into the field at form load, after the {/dataset/VARIABLE} values have been updated in the custom HTML elements.

I think you are right.

That's the issue.

Thanks for the help Matthew.
