Text summary via loop through?

hi,

 

i'm trying generate text summary field @ end of form. form has many sections shown, hidden, or duplicated assume best way loop through of visible form objects - rather telling summary field field values @ defined locations, tell go what's there , report back.

 

the summary format "caption = value; caption = value;" etc

 

it run on button click, though prevent differences between field value , summary value, ideally run live, e.g. on calculate event of summary field.

 

any gratefully received!

hi,

 

maybe code started, goes though form page page, every field on page , displays alert of field caption , value each field visible.

 

function isnodevisible(node) {

    for (; node.somexpression !== "xfa[0].form[0]"; node = node.parent) {

        if (node.presence == "hidden" || node.presence == "invisible") {

            return false;

        }

    }

    return true

}

for (var = 0; < xfa.host.numpages; i++) {

    var fields = xfa.layout.pagecontent(i, "field");

    for (var j = 0; j < fields.length; j++) {

        if (isnodevisible(fields.item(j))) {

            if (fields.item(j).ui.oneofchild.classname != "button") {

                app.alert(fields.item(j).caption.value.text.value + " " + fields.item(j).rawvalue);

            }

        }

    }

}

 

you need more work caption if have radio buttons

 

regards
