How do I get a less than in a javascript for loop in XSL to work?
- by Kyle
I am using CDATA to escape the script but in IE8's debugger I still get this message: "Expected ')'" in the for loop conditions. I am assuming it still thinks that the ; in the < generated by CDATA is ending the loop conditions.
Original script in my XSL template:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
<![CDATA[
function submitform(form){
var oErrorArray = new Array();
for (i=0;i<form.length;i++)
eval("oErrorArray["+i+"]=oError"+i);
var goForm = true;
for(i=0;i<form.length;i++) {
oErrorArray[i].innerHTML = "";
if(form[i].value="")){
oErrorArray[i].innerHTML = "Error - input field is blank";
goForm = false;
}
}
if(goForm == true) form.submit();
}
function resetform(form){
form.reset();
}
]]>
</script>
Code generated after transformation (from IE8 debugger):
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function submitform(form){
var oErrorArray = new Array();
for (i=0;i<form.length;i++)
eval("oErrorArray["+i+"]=oError"+i);
goForm = true;
for(i=0;i<form.length;i++) {
oErrorArray[i].innerHTML = "";
if(form[i].value="")){
oErrorArray[i].innerHTML = "Error - input field is blank";
goForm = false;
}
}
if(goForm == true) form.submit();
}
function resetform(form){
form.reset();
}
</script>
Error reported by IE8 debugger: Expected ')' login.xml, line 29 character 30 (which is right after the first "form.length")
