When this script executes, it stores the value of the AMOUNT field from the current record
in a variable and evaluates it. If the value is zero or higher, the color of text in the results -
the table cells in this case - will be set to green; if the value is below zero, the text color
will be set to red.
Tip
For more examples of using conditions, see this how-to: Combining record-based
conditions.
Designer API
Features like results and record do not exist in the native JavaScript library. These are
additional JavaScript features, designed for use in Connect scripts only. All features
designed for use in the Designer are listed in the Designer's API, with a lot of examples;
see "Designer Scripts API" on page786.
Managing scripts
Changing the order of execution
When a record set is merged with a template to generate output, all scripts are executed once
for every record in the record set, in the order in which they appear in the Scripts pane at the
bottom left.
The order in which scripts are executed is particularly important when one script produces
content that contains a selector for another script. If the other script has already been executed,
it will not run again automatically. So, scripts that produce content that contains one or more
selectors for other scripts, need to come first.
To change the order in which scripts are executed:
l
Click a script or a folder in the Scripts pane at the bottom. Drag it up or down and drop it.
Note
Control scripts are always executed first, regardless of where they are in the Scripts pane.
