Writing conditions with UI buttons

[orbital 15]

I am wanting to build conditional buttons based upon the selection of a dropdown. I used an if statement but that didn't work. I don't even know if this is possible but I thought I would try.

 

ui window("Search Settings") {
   ui drop down("Chose Country", "US,UK", #country)
   if("{#country}=US") {
       then {
           ui button("US Ebay Category Numbers ") {
               navigate("http://listings.ebay.com/_W0QQfclZ1QQloctZShowCatIdsQQsocmdZListingCategoryList", "Wait")
           }
       }
       else {
           ui button("UK Ebay Category Numbers ") {
               navigate("http://listings.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQloctZShowCatIdsQQsacatZQ2d1QQsalocationZlicQQsocmdZListingCategoryList", "Wait")
           }
       }
   }
   ui text box("Top Level Ebay Category Number to be Searched. 0 is all categories", #categoryToSearch)
}

if(#country = "US" OR #pla = "plupp" OR #one != 1) {

then {

}

else if(#country = "DE" OR #one != 2) {

}

else {

}

}

thanks for the feedback.

 

I'm trying to make it so based upon a selection of the drop down a button shows up in the menu.

 

So if they select US then the US button shows up and if they select UK then the UK button shows up for them to click on if they want.

What is going to happen after they click the US or UK button is it going to do a search?

Or is it some option process that the end user should be able to choose whether they want to happen

or not?

 

A solution I have used for a need for a dynamic UI i.e. thing changing based upon user selection

is to us an if statement combined with the load html command. So if US is true then load the HTML

with the US checkbox in the browser. If checked you can use that to

trigger the commands that you want to run. Just remember you have to scrape the attribute of the

check box to to trigger the commands. Something like IF---->SCRAPE ATRIBUTE---->CHECKED =$true.

 

The only drawback is yo have to make a set of commands for each one of your original dropdown/selection items.

Thanks for the help on this James.

 

If the user chooses UK then a button appears for them to click. When they click the button it navigates them to the UK ebay category listings page.

the way its shown from willywonka or blumi is correct.

 

the way your wanting to do it you would need to use ui html panel or ui html window

 

and use a combination of html and javascript

onclick

 

and have it execute a defined command

ok, thanks. I don't have dev so I don't have those available to me. I think I got something working now with the above suggestions.
