If I have a service response connected to a list, how can I skip items based on certain criteria, and not adding them to the list?

So suppose my service response consists of a list of emailaddresses. I connect this response in the "edit mapping" to a list in the UI.

But some of the emailaddresses returned will be empty, and I don't want them to be in the list as empty list items.

If I do "edit js" with the mobilItem, and return an empty string or null, then still an empty list item is shown in the list.

Hello! Let us know if this helps https://getsatisfaction.com/apperyio/...

So the technique is to use element.closest("table").hide(); ? Is "table" the tablename or mobilelistitem or literally "table" ?

Why is it element.closest and not $(element).closest ?

In this case https://getsatisfaction.com/apperyio/... "table" is a literal. There user searches the closest table and hide it (as he maps results to outputGrid - Grid component).

In your case you would need to use selector for you current situation. So if you work with list - selector would be "li". On service success event add the following JS to refresh the list:

codeAppery("mobilelistName").listview('refresh');/code

where mobilelistName - List name

Because you transmit JQ element, you don't need to use $.
