Hi ,
I need help for this problem:
On my code - based on the value of a dynamic field - #text4
it should collapse a container #wixquotes1 or expand it.
currently when I preview the code below, it gives me the error
"TypeError: Cannot convert undefined or null to object "

$w.onReady(() => {
if (Number(valueOf($w(‘#text4’))) !== 0) {
console.log(“Here”)
$w(“#wixquotes1”).collapse()
} else {
$w(“#wixquotes1”).expand()
}
});

Am unable to figure out whats going wrong. Please help.
Thanks

Try to modify this

if (Number($w('#text4').value) !== 0) {

Thanks a Ton Andreas it worked.

However in the editor it shows a Red Dot next to the statement when i type value with the error “Value does not exist on #text4”
Don’t know why this comes but it still works.

Cheers.

Does it have the ID of text4 in the properties panel? And you have added a TextInput you sure? Not some TextBox?

Does it have the ID of text4 in the properties panel? - yes
And you have added a TextInput you sure? Not some TextBox? Its a TextBox connected to the Database

Andreas, for some strange reason it is not working now. I just updated the script as below:

$w.onReady(() => {
if (Number($w(‘#text4’).value) === 0) {
console.log(“Here”)
$w(“#wixquotes1”).collapse()
} else {
console.log(“Else”)
$w(“#wixquotes1”).expand()
}
});

Am unsure whats going on.
My programming skill Level is Novice so sorry to bother you.
