Examples
The following template script evaluates the data field Country in the current record. If the value
is 'CANADA' it will show the results, otherwise it will hide them. (The results object contains
the elements that match the script's selector; see "results" on page467 and "Writing your own
scripts" on page218.)
if (record.fields["Country"] == "CANADA") {
results.show();
} else {
results.hide();
}
In a Control Script, an entire section could be enabled or disabled based on the same
condition:
if (record.fields["Country"] == "CANADA") {
merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections["Section 1"].enabled =
true;
} else {
merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections["Section 1"].enabled =
false;
}
For more information about Control Scripts, see "Control Scripts" on page235.
remove()
Removes each element in a set from the DOM.
This function returns a new result set containing each removed element. These can be
changed and inserted in the document. This could be beneficial in terms of performance, as
manipulating elements inside the DOM is relatively time consuming.
Examples
This script removes all Span elements found in the template.
results.remove();
