Hi Community,
We have built a repeating section on a form for purchase orders so that a user can add multiple items into a list. Now the client would like to have a summary page before submission of the purchase order and I was wondering is there an easy way to have the repeating section to show up in two places on the form with out the user hitting a save or submit button. This would be very helpful going forward on other forms as well.
Thanks,
Kevin

Hope someone might have some insight to this.

Hi Kevin,
I've got a possible solution to this that involves a modal dialog.
1. Add a css class to the repeating section, in my example its rptSectionCSS
2. Add a rich text field and hide it using css, edit the source and paste the following (this is just my example):
<div id="myDialogBox"></div>
3. In Form settings - Custom javascript paste the following function:
function fnShowDialog()
{
var myElement = NWF$(".rptSectionCSS").first().clone().removeAttr('id') ;
NWF$("#myDialogBox").html(myElement);
NWF$("#myDialogBox").dialog({title: "Nintex Dialog", modal: true, autoOpen:true, minHeight: 600,minWidth: 700});
};
4. Create a javascript button on the form that calls fnShowDialog(); on client click.
You get something like this:
