Hello
I added a javascript file (refpt.js) to my project but I get "undefined' errors when I try to access any functions in it. When I open it up Chrome's JavaScript console, it shows the entire file's contents on a single line and the error "unexpected end of input". But the code itself has no errors, I tried it out by adding it to the load event of the screen and it works fine.
Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Hello,
There is an issue, it will be fixed in approximately 2 weeks.
As a workaround, you can delete all the comments in code.
I already did. That was the first thing I tried when I saw it was wrapping the entire file's contents to a single line, because comments were basically commenting out the rest of the file from that point on. So I removed every comment, both single as well as multi-line ones, but that doesnt fix it.
Btw, the entire "javascript file" interface is broken:
Cannot upload existing js files. Even after I select th efile and hit upload, it just sits there and doesnt load the contents. Have to cope/paste to get the contents loaded.
If I make "small changes" to the file, it doesnt save those. Even when I delete some characters or add a line, the save button does nothing and if I close the file and come back to it, the changes are gone
I believe long js files dont work. Small ones seem to work but probably after a certain number of characters, it is unable to deal with the file.
As a workaround, I placed the js code into the event handler for a screen load, but I am a newbie and dont know how to call functions in that code from another handler. Is that something you can help with? For instance, if I have a function called foo() in the js code that gets invoked for a screen load, and then I want to call that function from a button press, how do I do that? Just calling foo() doesnt seem to work.
Thanks
There is a tab 'External resources' in 'Project settings'. You can add JS code there.
We will solve the problem.
Ok thanks that works. Let us know once the issue is fixed.
