Javascript for parsing submitted form returning variable

Hello,

I have a form submitted to get user credentials from mysql db. And returned variable is retrieved. The returning value is something like this.

"SchoolName,StudentName,Permitted,LastLoginDate"

I want to parse this value into variables splitted by ","

I am using the following code in Run Javascript module of a button.

varRetValue = VarReturnedValue.getValue().split(",",2);

VaSchool.set(RetValue[0]);

VarStudent.set(RetValue[1]);

....

But the code does not function. Any ideas why it doesn't work?

Do you have an example?

Thanks a lot Missed that.

VaSchool.set(RetValue[0]); Typo - missing the "r" in Var?

When I have another action after run Javascript Action they don't seem to run. Do you have any estimation?

Allthough i am not sure if this is the one causing the error, i see another typo/error in the code.

In the split you are ( at least it looks like ) filling the array varRetValue with the received values..

But then when calling a specific value of that array you use RetValue.

I like to use names for variables that specify what type it is.

So i do think it should be something like this ( if it is a typo and not just a missing space in the post )

var RetArray = VarReturnedValue.getValue().split(“,”,2);

VarSchool.set(RetArray[0]);

VarStudent.set(RetArray[1]);

or like you have it with just a added space.

varRetValue = var RetValue

Thanks for your great help.

Do you have any code samples of a javascript to retrieve completed pages count into a variable from TOC content without using LMS or scorm?
