Manipulating Advanced Form controls

[towpse]

I'd like to implement my own check box control similar to or in place of the All Day check box.
I want a check box that will hide and show controls on toggle.

I've looked through the Advanced Form javascript file and pretty much get the jist of how the click event is setup.

If a developer wants to do something similar, would you recommend setting up a check box control in a similar fashion?

The only thing I can't figure out is where the label for the All Day check box is created and placed. I don't see it in the markup for the advanced form ascx file.

Thanks,

Hi,

Using the same approach will be fine. It should be possible to simplify it a bit as it currently hides two separate controls and manages the respective validators.

The JavaScript for the advanced form has become a bit bloated mainly because of the recurrence editing functionality, but we plan to improve on the situation by extracting it in a separate control. This will inevitably lead to some changes, but we'll also keep backwards-compatibility with existing templates.

The "All day" string is set in the code behind:
AllDayEvent.Text = Owner.Localization.AdvancedAllDayEvent;

I hope this helps.

All the best,
