[xwiki-users] Register_ email field generator script

16 Jul 2008

      Hello All,

I want to write a script to combine the first name and last name to generate the email automatically.
For example first name is Bat Second is man then the email is [email protected]
automatically.
This is done already in the username field so I made a script exactly the same but with different name ofcourse and variables.
Problem is that its working as long as I comment the script for generating the username.
They never work together, I have to comment one so the other works.

thats the code in register inline

<dt>$msg.get("core.register.username")</dt>
	    <dd></dd>

          #set($prop = $class.password)
          <dt>$msg.get("core.register.password")</dt>
          <dd>$doc.displayEdit($prop, "register_",  $obj)</dd>

          <dt>$msg.get("core.register.passwordRepeat")</dt>
          <dd>$doc.displayEdit($prop, "register2_",  $obj)</dd>

          #set($prop = $class.email)
          <dt>$msg.get("core.register.email")</dt>
	 <dd>

in the xwiki.js in the albatross folder I added this function

function prepareEmail(form) {
  var fname = form.register_first_name.value;
  var lname = form.register_last_name.value;
  var cxwikiemail = form.xwikiemail;
  if (fname != "") {
    fname = fname.substring(0,1).toUpperCase() + fname.substring(1);
    fname.replace(/ /g,"");
  }
  if (lname != "") {
    lname = lname.substring(0,1).toUpperCase() + lname.substring(1);
    lname.replace(/ /g,"");
  }
  if (cxwikiemail.value == "") {
	var eadr = fname+"."+lname+"@yahoo.com";
     cxwikiemail.value = noaccent(eadr);
  }
}

Any idea why this is not working, i tried everything and no hope :(

Many thanks in advance
