Lightbox select label value

Scheduler Javascript
#1

Hi,

I am new to using DHTMLX Schedular. I cant figure out how to get a value of a Lightbox select (combo) option?

My code is as follows:


      var meetingType = [
        { key: 1, label: 'test1' },
        { key: 2, label: 'test2' },
        { key: 3, label: 'test3' }
      ];

      scheduler.config.lightbox.sections = [
        { name: "Title", height: 25, map_to: "title", type: "textarea", focus: true },
        { name: "Meeting Type", options: meetingType, map_to: "meeting_type", type: "combo", filtering: true, cache: false },
        { name: "Agenda", height: 50, map_to: "agenda", type: "textarea" },
        { name: "time", height:72, type:"calendar_time", map_to:"auto" }
      ];

That creates the popup with those fields which works fine.

I now want to get all the values -
I can get them all using ev.[name of map_to] however the meetingType will only return the key value. I want to get it to return the label of the key. Is that possible and if so how can I do that?

Thank you

Andy

Hi,
To get label, you can find it’s value in the meetingType array based on key value:

for (var i = 0; i < meetingType.length; i++) {
    if (ev.meeting_type == meetingType[i].key)
        return meetingType[i].label;
}

Thank you very much. That worked.
