I have a form that does some fairly simple math. It counts a number of events entered, than applies an additional fee based on the number of events. The additional fee is not uniform ( +0 for 1 event, +10 for 2 events, +20 for 3 events, +25 for 4 events, and +30 for 5 events.) the calculations work perfectly for 1, 2, 3 & 5 events, but when the event total is 4, the result is +230!!! It doesn't matter which events I add or subtract, when it hits 4 tthe total skyrockets, then return to expected at 5.

I have no clue why this would be.

<div id="totalFees">
	<input name="totalevents" type="hidden" id="totalevents" dmx-bind:value="selectKata.value.toNumber() + selectWeapon.value.toNumber() + selectSpar.value.toNumber() + selectBlocker.value.toNumber() + selectGrapple.value.toNumber()">
	<input name="fee_addevent" type="hidden" id="inp_fee_addevent" dmx-bind:value="totalevents.value.replace('1', '0').replace('2', '10').replace('3', '20').replace('4', '25').replace('5', '30')">
	<input name="fee_base" type="hidden" id="inp_feebase" value="45.00">
	<input name="fee_total" type="hidden" id="inp_feetotal" dmx-bind:value="inp_feebase.value.toNumber() + inp_fee_addevent.value.toNumber()">
        [h3]Events Entered: <strong>{{totalevents.value}}</strong> Additional Event Fee: <strong>{{inp_fee_addevent.value.toNumber().formatNumber(2, ".", ",")}}</strong> Total Due: <strong>{{inp_feetotal.value.toNumber().formatNumber(2, ".", ",")}}</strong>[/h3]
</div>

Hi Lee,
I will try to recreate this issue locally and see what is wrong.

Any luck recreating the issue? (I've tried it with and without quotes around the parameters)

Hi Lee,
The issue is caused because 25 contains 5, and because 5 is replaced with 30, and then 25 = 2 + 30 = 230.

I will look for a better solution instead of using replace here.

I suspected the 5 was the culprit, but did not associate it with the next replace statement. Interesting.

A good old-fashioned 'case' or 'switch' statement would be handy!

I changed the order, and it works correctly now ( i.e. put in this order .replace('5', '30').replace('4', '25')

I would be interested in a more elegant solution.

Hi Lee,
You can just use:

Quote

dmx-bind:value="(totalevents.value == 1).then('0') || (totalevents.value == 2).then('10') || (totalevents.value == 3).then('20') || (totalevents.value == 4).then('25') || (totalevents.value == 5).then('30')"

That works excellent. Thank you. I was not aware that was an option, can you point me to documentation on that function?

Hi Lee,
I am not sure this is documented, but i will check and add such a tutorial when updating the documentation.
