Disable fields

Hello,

You should create dependencies, but through the dependencies you are not disabling/enabling the fields, you’re hiding/showing them. The dependencies are associated only to the following fields:

– Checkbox
– Radio Button
– DropDown
– Calculated Field

So, if you want to create dependencies for a number field, you should insert a calculated field (as auxiliary field) whose equation check the value of the number field and return a result, and based on the result you define the dependency rule for showing or not the rest of fields.

Note: as the calculated field is used as auxiliary, it is not needed in the form’s interface, so, you can tick the property: Hide Field From Public Page

More information about the use of dependencies with the calculated fields in the following link:

Best regards.

Hello,

I know how to show or hide them, but what I want to know is if it is possible to grey out certain fields on a condition, meaning the fields should be visible but inaccessible to the users?

Thanks.

Hello @greedymind,

In this case you should convert the fields in readonly, or editable, but this code must be implemented by yourself as part of your equations:

for example, assuming you want convert the input field: fieldname1 in readonly, include the following piece of code as part of your equation:

jQuery('[id*="fieldname'+'1_"]').prop('readonly', true);

To make the field editable again:

jQuery('[id*="fieldname'+'1_"]').prop('readonly', false);

Best regards.

Thanks a lot. I’ll be sure to try it out and let you know.
