I want to set hidden checkboxes with a FS_Button.

It works fine, if the boxes are not hidden (hidden="no"). But if they are hidden, the changes aren't stored

//get selected gui value
        selectedValuesNew = formData.get(null,"cs_target").get(); //set
        // Update selected targets
        HashSet mappedTargetsNew = new HashSet(); 
        for(value:selectedValuesNew){
            mappedTargetsNew.add(optionModel.getOption(value.toString())); 
        }
        if(mappedTargetsNew != null)
            targets_checkboxes.set(mappedTargetsNew);

 <FS_BUTTON
          name="fs_targetbutton"
          hFill="no"
          noBreak="no"
          onClick="script:news_target_picker"
          style="button"
          useLanguages="no">
          <LANGINFOS>
            <LANGINFO lang="*" label="Set targets" description="TEXT"/>
            <LANGINFO lang="DE" label="Ziele setzen" description="TEXT"/>
          </LANGINFOS>
          <PARAMS>
            <PARAM name="targets_checkboxes">#field.cs_targetmapping</PARAM>
          </PARAMS>
        </FS_BUTTON>

Any ideas? thx

hi karsten,

if you just want to hide the checkboxes in a form, put them in an extra form group and hide the complete form group with non-hidden checkboxes for all users except for e. g. admin users.

<ON_EVENT>

    <WITH>     

      <OR>

        <IN_GROUP name="Administrators"/>

        <IN_GROUP name="Developers"/>

      </OR>

    </WITH>

    <DO>

      <PROPERTY source="#form.checkboxes" name="VISIBLE"/> 

    </DO>

</ON_EVENT> 

maybe a solution for your uc.

cheers,

daniel
