I have this code that works to hide empty list items
list.find("[name=mobilegridcell_255]:contains(emptylabel)").closest('[name=listPreviousInvoicesItem]').hide();
This hides the last row which contains an unmapped list item. However when I run the same for remove it removes all of the list items
list.find("[name=mobilegridcell_255]:contains(emptylabel)").closest('[name=listPreviousInvoicesItem]').remove();
Can you tell me why?
Hello Aeneas,
It happens because you remove all components, including template components.
But why does the hide() behave differently and only hide the ones matching the contains criteria?
Could you send us screenshots with these components. Which of them are created via service, which not? And which do you need to hide?
HI, I need to remove the blank row at the end but because remove() deletes them all I have to use hide(). I'm just asking why they have different behaviours.
The last blank component is the template for components which are created via mapping. It is invisible, so if you hide it - it remains on the page, but if you remove it - it also removes components which are created via mapping.
So the remove() ignores the contains filter and the hide() does not?
I am sorry, not sure I understand you correctly. Please specify your question.
