Hi,
I have a javascript code for my form which I want to edit secionts of it based on my user status. What I mean is:
If user is signed in Execute A
If user is Not signed in Execute B

How can I do this?
Thanks

Hi omidhz,

Put the user->id (or user->guest) into a hidden field. Then you can check the value with your script.

Could you please explain how I can do this? I'm not really sure how to check the value?

Hi omidhz,

In your form html you need to add this at the end

<?php
if ( !$mainframe->isSite() ) { return; }
$user = & JFactory ::getUser();
?>
<input type='hidden' name='user_id' value='<?php echo $user->id; ?>' />

Thank you for your quick reply. I will try this and get back to you. I think it should work just fine for what I need.

I have a small issue here. The above code is php so it loads with the form. My calculation is in javascript which loades before the form. What I need is to have a javascript if...else command.
if use is registered run A if not registered run B. How I can use the above code in javascript?
I really appreciate your support.

Hi omidhz,

None of your scripts *should* run before the form loads; so add an id and check in the script for the value of the hidden field.

<input type='hidden' name='user_id' id='user_id' value='<?php echo $user->id; ?>' />

var user_id = $('user_id').value;
