getCurrentValue()

Availability

Adobe Dreamweaver MX.

Description

Returns the current value to display in the item. Adobe Dreamweaver calls the getCurrentValue() function for pop-up menus, combo boxes, text boxes, and color pickers. For pop-up menus, the current value should be one of the items in the menu. If the value is not in the pop-up menu, Adobe Dreamweaver selects the first item. For combo boxes and text boxes, this value can be any string that the function returns. For color pickers, the value should be a valid color, but Adobe Dreamweaver does not enforce this. This function is equivalent to the value attribute.

Arguments

None.

Returns

Adobe Dreamweaver expects a string that contains the current value to display. For the color picker, the string contains the RGB form of the selected color (for example #FFFFFF for the color white).

Example

function getCurrentValue(){ var title = ""; var dom = dw.getDocumentDOM();  if (dom) title = dom.getTitle();  return title;}
