Questions about form list and use-when

[matarazzo angelo]

Hi,
I'm studying use-when tag  in list-forms and I have a few questions:

1)I would like to do

<field name="name" title="${uiLabelMap.CommonName} "
                         use-when="name.equals(&quot;Jack&quot;)">
                        <display also-hidden="true" description="${name}" />
                </field>
But there isn't  variable "name" in the context and so use-when doesn't work.
How can I display the specific value of "name" only if it is Jack?

2)Also

<form name="ListName" type="multi" >
.
.

<set field="contextVariable" value="commonValue"/>
.
.
.
<field use-when="contextVariablename.equals(&quot;commonValue&quot;)" name="name">
                        <display />
                </field>

<field name="submitButton" title="${uiLabelMap.CommonRemove}--&gt;" use-when="contextVariablename.equals(&quot;commonValue&quot;)">
                        <submit button-type="button" />
                </field>

The field "submitButton" unlike "name",  is always displayed Why?


Thank you for your time.

Hi, Eric
thank you.
However I resolved in this way:
field name="name" title="${uiLabelMap.CommonName} ">
<display also-hidden="true" description="${bsh:if(name.equals(&quotJack&quot))  return name; else return "} />
 </field>
 In your opinion is't right?
About second question?

<form name="ListName" type="multi" >
 .
 .
<actions>
 <set field="contextVariable" value="commonValue"/>
<actions/>

 
 <field use-when="contextVariablename.equals(&quot;commonValue&quot;)"
 name="name">
 <display />
</field>

<field name="submitButton" title="${uiLabelMap.CommonRemove}--&gt;"
use-when="contextVariablename.equals(&quot;commonValue&quot;)">
 <submit button-type="button" />
 </field>

 The field "submitButton" unlike "name",  is always displayed Why?

Thanks again.
Angelo
