Javascript and edit mode

HCL Domino Domino Forum

On a form I have a button called close…

I have this current simple javascript…

thisForm = window.document.forms[0];

thisForm.SaveOptions.value = “0”;

history.go(-2);

but this only appears to work when the document is new.

If the document is opened in read moved, I get a error for the thisForm.SaveOptions.value=“0” line.

I think it’s because I’m not in edit mode.

So the question begs… how do I in javascript determine if a document is in edit mode or not with a notes form?

Thanks…

I’ve tried

thisForm = window.document.forms[0];

if ( thisForm.write ) {

thisForm.SaveOptions.value = "0";

history.go(-2); 

}

else

{

history.go(-2);

}

and it fails…

any help would be appreciated.

Why would yo check the value of the SaveOptions field, while the document is not being edited anyway?

On open the field values becomes a “1” when you open the document. When I close the doc (for cancelling), I don’t want to save any changes…

so the field is set to “0”…at least that’s what I’m trying to do…
