Hiding and Unhiding Form Tabs based on information entered on the form

[terryd]

I am trying to create a form where the tabs that should be displayed depend on information entered on the first tab.
So I would like to hide or disable the other tabs until I have entered all the fields on the first page which will determine the tabs to then unhide/display. If I use the wizard form type and click next then I would like clicking next to display the next valid tab.
Any pointers please.Thanks

Hi Terry and Johan,

I did this a year or so ago on a test project.

It was ugly. But worked.

I had a radio button and depending upon its value it turned on and off certain tabs.

Firstly i needed to save all fields values in session variables to save their state.

I then had to save the client side value.

I added this handcoded JS to the control.

'sv(''LIS__PropertyType'',''listingupdate_lis__propertytype_value'',1,FieldValue(this)); window.open(''ListingUpdate?SessionID='&p_web.SessionID&''',''MainRight'')'

My variable that dictated the tab changes was LIS:PropertyType.

When the user selected a value, it would reload (yes full page refresh) the page, but the tabs would be redrawn correctly and work.

Its awful I know, but it worked.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the update.

Sounds like to much work for me at this stage.

I think I will wait for NetTalk 5.
