Problem hiding a table column

[Amal Elaine]

I can't seem to get a table column that contains a radio button to hide at run time using javascript.  The table column contains a radio button, which gets wrapped in a subform when you try to put a radio field in a table cell.... I've tried every combination of hiding the headerRow column and the data column, using references to the radio field, the radio group, the radio subform, etc... and nothing seems to accomplish the desired results.


The table is simple:  radio button, customer name, date of birth.  During testing I was able to hide the customer name column and the DOB column, but no combination of script would produce the proper results to hide the column with the radio button in it.

I've added a sample form to the files section of this group, called HideTableColumn.xdp.  Uncomment sections in the initForm() method of the formScript object to see working examples.

Thanks for looking,
Elaine

Are you running your script at "Client" or "Server"?

apparently you also have to reset the table container with the proper column widths (2 instead of 3, for example, if you are hiding a column).  I never would have figured that out....
