Scripts in Elipse Mobile are written in JavaScript. The available global parameters for access via scripts in a Form are described on the next table.

Parameters of a script on a Form

To access the parameters described previously, use the format described next.

WriteTag("demo:TagInternal1",
  form.assignedUser,
  function(er) {
});

Fields on a Form, in the fields parameter, contain an id property, which is the internal code of a Field, the notes property, in the case of Fields with additional notes, the value property, which is the value of a Field, and the timestamp property, which is the date and time of the last update of a Field. Access to properties of a Field must be performed according to the next example.

WriteTag("demo:TagInternal1",
  form.fields.field1.value,
  function(er) {
});

When an answer is created on a Form, an OnChange event is triggered in the server. This event can be used to validate a Form, to copy data to another system, or to send an e-mail notifying changes to a Form, according to the next example.

function OnChange(form) {
  //If the state parameter is equal to 2,
  //Field's value is written to TagInternal1
  if (form.state == 2) {
    WriteTag("demo:TagInternal1",
      form.fields.field1.value,
      function(er) {}
    );
  }
}

To create a script for scheduling the creation of a Form on a specific day, for example, follow the next procedures in a Demo-type Connection.

1.Select the Events tab and click Add .

2.Select the Script item.

3.Type a name for this event.

4.In the Condition option, type the next expression.

(new Date(ValueOf("demo:_now"))).getDay() == 5

5.The previous expression creates a new JavaScript Date object from the _now Tag and compares it to the value 5 (five, Friday).

6.In the Script option, type the next source code.

SendMail("user",
  "Form filling",
  "Message",
  function(er) {
});

7.This script is executed when the event enters a true condition, that is, when the weekday is equal to Friday. On all other days this script is not triggered.
