Using element name in Components

[azaleas]

On my regular forms, I use event.getOwner().elementName to initialize my scripts. But apparently, it doesn't work with components. I just have 2 scripts, one for each button in the Component. So, I want to use:

if (event.getOwner().elementName == "button1ControlName"){
do sth
}

if (event.getOwner().elementName == "button2ControlName"){
do sth
}

This way, I can reduce the script to one file. Any ideas?

event.getOwner().elementName is returning the full name of the button with the component prefix added to the front of the name. You could use:

Code: Select all

if (new java.lang.String(event.owner.elementName).endsWith("button1ControlName"))
..

(This uses the Java String class instead of the Javascript String because the Javascript version doesn't have an endsWith method.)
