How can we defined NWF$ in Nintex Javascript (for forms or workflows) ?

[zaert]

Hello guys,

I've always work with Javascript when I developped Nintex Forms or Nintex Workflows and I have just a question.

I often see in my code : NWF$ for example : NWF$(this).find(":selected").text()

I know that the NWF is for the DOM but someone can help me to understand what's the DOM ? What is it composed ?

Thx everyone.

Théo

In jQuery, the $ sign it's just an alias to jQuery(), then an alias to a function. The syntax is basically: $(selector).action()

1. A dollar sign to define jQuery
2. A (selector) to "query (or find)" HTML elements
3. A jQuery action() to be performed on the element(s)

Does this help? the NWF$ is just the redefine of the jQuery alias since it's packaged up internally with Nintex.
