dynamic data property status values
Posted by: Jo on May 2, 2009 | Updated: May 2, 2009 02:16 PM
Introduction
Every dynamic data property you define for an object, or for hooked dynamic data, can have a 'status' attribute.
This value of the 'status' attribute determines how the dynamic data property is output.
Dynamic data can be viewed in either :
- a list view showing all items in an object (or for items with hooked dynamic data), usually in a table listing layout
- a display view showing all data for a specific item (object item or item with hooked dynamic data),
- or an input screen where users can input dynamic data values for a specific item
The 'status' can be set in the Administration user interface in the Modify Property screen for the object or hooked dynamic data.
Dynamic Data Status Property Values
The following table shows the different values for the 'status' attribute of a dynamic data property, and output for either the view, display, or input screen.
| Status value | View | Display | Input | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Active |
|
|
|
Default value |
| View Only |
|
|
|
|
| Display Only |
|
|
|
|
| Input Only |
|
|
|
|
| Hidden |
|
|
|
The property is added with a hidden input field. The display can be overridden in the template by use of the 'hidden' attribute. The hidden attribute takes the folllwing values: hidden="active" - property is output in view, display and input hidden="display" - property is output in display and input screen hidden="hidden" - property is added with a hidden input field if not already specified in teh GUI |
| Ignored |
|
|
|
The property is displayed, but ignored during input and update functions. |
| Disabled |
|
|
|
Disabled status completely removes the property from display or input and is not available in any item retrievals. Any existing data is retained in the database and can be used if the status is changed back to any other non-disabled status value. |
