NAME

x6.json.inputs

FUNCTION

The Javascript method x6.json.inputs adds inputs to a JSON call previously initiated with x6.json.init.

This method accepts an object as its parameter, and will add every input that is a child (at any level) of that object.

This method uses the "id" property of the input to name the parameter, not the "name" property. Andromeda makes no use of the "name" property.

This method is equivalent to use x6.json.addParm for each of the desired inputs.

Checkboxes receive special treatment. If the box is checked a value of 'Y' is sent, and if the box is not checked a value of 'N' is sent.

The name of each parameter is normally the Id of the input. If the inputs were generated by Andromeda on an Extended-Desktop page, they will have the names 'x4inp__.

INPUTS

object - optional, the object to recurse. You must pass the object itself, not its Id. If no object is passed the Extended-Desktop top-level object x4Top is used, which means you get every input on the page, whether or not it is visible or

direct - a special flag that says to name the parameters 'x4c_'. This is required when you are sending Direct-Database-Access calls.

            if(direct) 
                var id = 'x4c_'+x6.p(this,'xColumnId');
