A Selection 1: ${atheme}

the syntax is simply wrong. it should say

A Selection 1: ${thisTheme}

now this should help ;) Derek Hohls wrote: >Johannes > >Still no luck - I have tried adding in some more variables >to test; and it looks like the values are being stored in >the array OK... > > var values = Array(); > > for( i = 0; i < model.theme.length ; i ++ ) > values[i] = model.theme[i]; > > var test0 = values[0]; > var test1 = values[1]; > > cocoon.sendPage("ijx-page", { "atheme":values, "theme":values, >"test0":test0; "test1":test1 }); > >The output for test0 or test1 matches the mulivalue widget >selection BUT the "values" output in the JX for-each loop is >still the strange references as before... > >What else to try ?? >Derek > > > >>>>jc.textor@gmx.de 2004/06/21 11:49:16 AM >>> >>>> >>>> >Derek, > >I actually don't use the values this way, I insert them directly into >the database >after the form was submitted. >Let's examine your code though, since you should be able to use the >values in jxt >as well. > > var model = form.getModel(); > var atheme = model.theme; /* theme is multiselect box */ > cocoon.sendPage("jxpage", { "atheme":atheme, "theme":model.theme }); > >There is something subtile here.
