Change the event hooked to a themeable button

[jPaul]

Hi Everybody,
I have a Themeable Button on a website. The value of that button is established by a PHP variable:
Button value = "Log In" or Button Value = "Log Out".
Works fine.
So now the action to that button is dependant upon the value of $myLogValue I need to include this javascript to the
Themeable Button:

Code: Select all

var btnValue = $('myLogValue').val();
if (btnValue == 'Log In') {
	// Action for first value
	login.php;
} else {
	// Action for second value
	logout.php;
}

How can I go about inserting that code in the event tab of the Themeable Button?

You cannot insert completer scripts in an event, instead you will need to call function that is defined somewhere else on the page.

Will you expand on this a little, please? ( I don't see anythiong like a run javascript )

Step 1
Add the function that implements your logic in Page HTML or a HTML Object.
For example;
<script>
function doSomething()
{
...
}
</script>

Step 2
Set the action of the event to 'javascript'

Step 3
In 'JavaScript' input field, use doSomething();
