Hi, we have a mobile checkbox group embedded in a collapsible block and would like to iterate through the json array response and populate a checkbox's text for each json object in the response.

Attached is the current mapping we have. As you can see, "mobilecheckbox5" has custom java script which looks like:

element.text(value.name);

When testing, a list of the text appears, when uncollapsing the block, but the checkbox's are not rendered.

Any ideas?

When using JavaScript, you need to have a return statement.

Does it work if you don't use the JavaScript?

Hi Max,

As always, thanks for the quick response!

RE: Does it work if you don't use the JavaScript?

If mobilecheckbox5.Text is mapped to $.name (instead of $), then a single checkbox appears but no text is seen

Thanks,

You need to map $ to mobilecheckbox5 and name to Text.

Hi Max,

Should have mentioned that earlier and that is why we had the custom JS to begin with: once mobilecheckbox5 is mapped to $, we are unable to map name to Text (get the RED button when dragging Text over to name).

Thanks,
Al

It should work, I was able to map it:

If still doesn't work, can you share your app with a href="mailto:support@tiggzi.com" rel="nofollow"support@tiggzi.com/a?

Max, looks like our mappings differ slightly. In your mapping the actual text is being mapped to a label's text, where mine was being mapped to the checkbox's text.

I added a label and was able to map as we wanted, but now when it is rendered, the text does not actually display

FWIW, am using FF 3.6.18

Right now you need to put a Label inside, to be able to map to it.

Yes, we did that and the label's text is not being rendered. See screenshot from last post

I don't see the label in your original screen shot...
