Support,

Can you confirm that you received the ZIP file I sent to you over the weekend?

Thanks

@mreade,

I’ve received and tested your files, replicated the issue too. I’ve escalated the issue to dev team, will follow up with you as soon as I get more information.

Many thanks Octavio,

I just wanted to make sure you received the files. With that, I’m glad you were able to replicate my problem.

Thanks

@mreade,

We are looking at your project and something is goofed up. Will follow up with you as soon as I have more information about it.

Support,

Since more of the apps I will be developing use a common coding as the one I am currently have issues with, I basically cannot proceed any further with app creation until this is resolved.

Is there some timeline you can give me for this, ball park?

Thanks

Support,

While testing the very same app project which I have already sent to because of this post, I have come across two more bugs which I’d like to point out.

1.

When tapping the field entry on page2 of the multiPage widget, up pops the number key pad. Enter a number then select “Next” just above the number key pad. Do this until you get to the last input field. When you select “Next” once again, it flashes open the “units” comboList located on page1 of the multiPage widget. This is so weird because this never did this on my first app developed with 2.3.1 before the update to Cordova.

2.

When I do select the “units” comboList it very briefly flashes the number keypad before it flashes the actual “unit” comboList.

There is some really weird stuff happening here with this. I am basically at a stand still until you can get this straightened out.

Please advise at your earliest.

Definitely something quirky going on in the app that octavio shared with me and the dev team. I set a breakpt in one location where a field is supposed to update a totals field (paraphrasing). I observed an endless loop in your code (8000 iterations). I did not identify the source of the problem yet. I queued it for one of our developers to assist with. I’m hoping he will be available tomorrow or friday to help investigate.

Many thanks Wayne.

It will be interesting to learn what is causing this for sure.

Is there any hope of finding a solution to this issue in the very near future? I am basically at a standstill and cannot finalize any apps until this is solved. I would appreciate some feedback at your earliest convenience.

Thank you,

@mreade,

The dev team investigated your issue and found that the root of the problem is the Total Weight text field editor is set to “number” type. This results in the html <input type=”number”> being generated. You can not assign a custom string into it (only numbers are accepted). Changed the type property of these fields to “text” and your jquery code should work.

Support,

Many thanks for your feedback. So, if I understand your suggestion, it is to change the text field “Type” property from “Number” to “Text” as this was the problem with the code working. I have tried this and it seems that changing this solves one problem but now creates another.

Now, when testing this on my iPhone, the letter keypad appears in lieu of the number keypad to enter values in the fields.

Any thoughts on this?

Hi Mike,

I’ve followed up with you by email, sharing the proposed modifications to your design by the dev team. In my understanding you only have to change the type to the textboxes that will show the result. Let me know how it goes for you.

[mreade]

Octavio,

I am currently testing now and I will let you know soon.

Thanks

OK, it looks like I have a working app now! However, there are some trade offs in order for the number keypad to appear when users tap the field to enter a numeric value. So, for now, it the calculations are working.

However, with this same project, I have been experiencing two additional issues:

1. When selecting “Next” after entering the last field value, the “units” combolist pops up from a different page?
(This happens when testing on the iPhone)

2. When selecting the “Email” push bottom, two email windows will open.
(This happens when testing in the Test Center software)

With this in mind, I do want to thank you and the development team for getting to the bottom of why the coding was not working. The changes made have corrected that problem but there still remains the two above issues.

Thanks,

I received your email with the .mobi form attachment. I did try to reply to the same email by received a 550 error – No Such User Here message.

I did change the Read-Only Text fields from Number to Text type and this still did not work. However, with those changes AND removed adding a suffix to the text field (number type) the coding did work.

So, I need a little more testing at my end to confirm this is indeed fixed.

Thanks
