XForm calculate not working

[Joaquín Blaya]

Hi,

I've created a form, with a coded concept where one of the possible answers is the concept 6157^Si respuesta^99DCT. Then I've placed a numeric concept that has in the calculate field the following value 

(function () {if(/form/obs/tuvo_menarca/value=='6157^Si respuesta^99DCT' )  { value = 1; }} ) ()

However in the Preview tab and when I fill out the form, the value isn't calculate. 

I've tried using /obs/tuvo_menarca/value, using double instead of single quotes around the 6157^Si respuesta^99DCT, but it hasn't worked. What am I doing wrong?

Also, I know there's a simpler way of doing this calculation, but this is just an initial one for something more complex which will require if and else ifs.

Thanks,

Joaquín

Hi Joaquin,

Can you change: value = 1; to return 1;

Hi Daniel,

It didn't work.  I tried also with one = or == for checking the value and it also didn't work. 

(function () {if(/form/obs/diu_edad_y_tabaquismo/value==1 )  { return 1; }} ) ()

Hi Joaquin,

Can you send me the form?

If we keep uppermost in our minds the unkind and unjust acts of others, we shall find it impossible to love them as Christ has loved us; but if our thoughts dwell upon the wondrous love and pity of Christ for us, the same spirit will flow out to others.

Sure, here it is.

Thanks Joaquin for reporting this.
I noted that:

There is a bug which requires you to have spaces on both sides of the equal signs. For instance, use: ...value == 6101 instead of ...value==6101

So just put at least one space at the beginning and end of the equal signs and try again.

Great, that worked!

Thanks Daniel,

Joaquín
