Hello everyone, always with the intention of learning javascript I’m trying to save the data inserted in a collection. Before doing this, however, I want to check that the fields entered are valid according to the type of data chosen.

I can not understand why you give me error.

ImputValid ();
IF (validationForm === true) {

this is the complete code

//FUCTION FOR SEE IF FORM IS VALID
function ImputValid() {
let ImputValid_01 = $w(“#ImptData”).valid;
let ImputValid_02 = $w(“#ImptEvent”).valid
let ImputValid_03 = $w(“#ImputName”).valid
let ImputValid_04 = $w(“#ImptCode”).valid
let ImputValid_05 = $w(“#ImpuUser”).valid
let ImputValid_06 = $w(“#ImputUrl”).valid
if ( (ImputValid_01===true) && (ImputValid_02===true) && (ImputValid_03===true) && (ImputValid_04===true) && (ImputValid_05===true) && (ImputValid_06===true)){
let validationForm = true;
} else{
let validationForm = false;
}
}

//INSERT IN TO DATABASE
export function SaveData_click() {
let toInsert = {
“dataEvento”: $w(“#ImptData”).value,
“tipoEvento”: $w(“#ImptEvent”).value,
“nomeEventoOErimonia”: $w(“#ImputName”).value,
“code”: $w(“#ImptCode”).value,
“utenteRedirect”: $w(“#ImpuUser”).value,
“redirect”: $w(“#ImputUrl”).value
};

			ImputValid();		 
			IF (validationForm === true){ 

wixData.insert("RedirectCerimonie", toInsert) 
	.then( (results) => { 
		//let item = results; 
		$w('#TabEventi').refresh(); 
		//clearImput(); 
    	//reloadTable(); 
    	$w("#textSaveForm").text = "Form Save"; 
	}) 
	.catch( (err) => { 
    	let errorMsg = err; 
    	console.log(errorMsg); 
	}); 

	} else { 
		$w("#textSaveForm").text = "Form Error"; 
	}

}

Eventually there are instructions to facilitate this task

Thank you

Hi,

I see a couple of things:

ImputValid ();
IF (validationForm === true) {

  • validationForm is not declared (it’s declared later in your code, but isn’t available for the above code)

  • IF should be if
    What error (or errors) are you getting?

Hello Thanks for your reply,

actually gives me the error that the variable validationForm is undefine. How can I solve the problem?
I do not know how to return the value obtained from a function, as long as it can be done
Thank you

To return the value, just add the following line to the end of the InputValid() function:

return validationForm;

Then, you can use the value like this:

if (ImputValid() === true) {

You can read more about a returning a value in a function.

Good luck,

Yisrael

I tried to change the code as per your example, but it does not work, when I add return at the end of the function it always gives me the variable and undefine.
I tried in other ways looking at the guide but I could not

At the end, thanks to the guide I solved by doing a
return true;
ritun false;

directly from the function without using the variable

Thank you

Great! You return true; and return false: is perfect.

I messed up in my answer to you regarding the declaration of validationForm .

Let me explain with a simple example:

function ImputValid() {
    let ImputValid_01 = $w("#ImptData").valid;
    if (  (ImputValid_01 === true) {
        // validationForm declared here and only available inside { }
	let validationForm = true;
    } else {
        // another different validationForm is declared here
	let validationForm = false;
    }

    // we can't "see" either of the validationForm declarations above
    return validationForm; // this does NOT work
}

This is what you need:

function ImputValid() {
    let ImputValid_01 = $w("#ImptData").valid;
    let validationForm; // declare validationForm
    if (  (ImputValid_01 === true) {
        // do NOT declare validationForm here (no let)
	validationForm = true;
    } else {
        // do NOT declare validationForm here (no let)
	validationForm = false;
    }

    // we can now "see" declaration of validationForm above
    return validationForm; // this does NOT work
}

See more on let, including a playground to try it out.

I hope this helps.

Ok but if I do like your example if it should be set like this

ImputValid ();
IF (validationForm === true) {

and not so

if (ImputValid () === true) {

Is what I’m saying correct?

Thank you

Since in my example, the ImputValid() function returns a value, it can be used like this:

if (ImputValid () === true) {

or like this:

let validValue = ImputValid();
if (validValue === true) {

Both ways are equivalent. The function ImputValid() returns a value, and can be used directly (first example), or can be assigned to a variable (second example).

Thank you so much for the explanation,
I am still testing to learn this better.
Thank you and have a good day

Good job! I think you’ll get a lot out of the investement that you’re making learning this material.

Remember me when you’re rich and famous. :upside_down_face:

Surely I will remember you, they are all information that opens up a world that fascinates me.

Thank you so much
